COULDN'T REFUSE TO DRINK.
Preachers Predicament of Nearly
Century Ago.

In speaking of the evil Of intemper.
ance DR.. Wayland IIoyt has related
the following:
In the autobiography of DR.. Good
ell, prefixed to his life, he tells us
that 20 or so years ago a very godly
minister used 10 pass his fathers door
and often stepped in to see the family.
Once the minister chanced TO meet
there the family physician, and he
asked his advice. He said: Il am
about visiting the sick and the ar.
iiicted and the inquiring, and every.
where ] am asked TO take something
to drink. ! cannot decline without
giving mortal offense. but after awhile
] find myself growing dizzy. and am
afraid that ] shall say or do some.
thing to disgrace myself. Now, what
do you advise me to do about this?"
After great deliberation the physi.
clan advised him to, as soon as he
felt himself growing dizzy, go home to
his study while he was able to walk.
There he was to sit until the dizziness
had passed off, when he could resume
his visiting.
That was nearly a century ago,
and It never occurred to either Of
them to "cut it out" Fancy q
preacher of to-day pursuing such
leisurely methods!

Inthe Churches Rev. .Aked
Expects to Act.
THE new PASTOR
OF the Leading Baptist Church Of
New York City Won Renown
in England as a Worker.

New York; April 22.--Rev. DR.
Charles f. Aked, for 16 years the pow
erful and popular pastor OF the second
largest Protestant church in England
where he gained wide reputation by
successful campaigns for civic de
cency and against all forms of vice, on
Sunday formally transferred his ac
tivities to America, and assumed the
pastorate OF the Fifth Avenue Baptist
church. of this city Dr. Akeds labors
at Liverpool, where he was pastor OF
Pembroke chapel. drew the attention
not only OF all England, but even OF
Europe because of his extraordinary
ability as a preacher, the wide range
OF his broad practical sympathies and
his energetic support of every move.
)rilent calculated TO benefit The people
, DR.. Aked first preached at the Fifth
Avenne church early last winter and
left a deep impression upon the mem.
bers. Subsequently a call went out to
him to serve as pastor of this infiuen.
tial New York church---a call which
received the earnest endorsement OF
John u. Rockefeller, who is one OF the
pillars of the Fifth Avenue congrega.
tion.
The new minister's sermon yester.
day was In the nature OF a message to
the American people. With all due
modesty, but with an earnestness OF
purpose, DR.. Aked declared he was
here to preach to all men, to take his
place with the leaders of all the
churches and to summon all his ener.
gies to battle with the problems that
trouble American life. He could not,
he declared, join a narrow church.
His Is to be the ministry of reconcile.
ation--unfettered and unbounded.
Enthusiasm and absolute sincerity,
the dominating trait of DR.. Aked's
service, were reflected in the audi.
ence which gathered to greet him
Sunday. Many persons were anxious
to hear the salutatory of the preacher
known to two continents. Indeed SO
many came that hundreds were un.
able to find places within. Prominent
among those present was John ID.
Rockefeller, jr., director of the church
Bible class. Mr.. Rockefeller, sr., was
not present at the morning, but par
ticipated in the evening services.
Dr. Aked proved an unconventional
preacher. In stature he Is above the
middle height, with s~uare pair of
shoulders topping an athletic frame.
He has a strong face and his audience
was not slow to perceive a. resem-
blance to President Roosevelt.

New York. April pa body, sup
posed to be that OF Peter j. Kennedy
q well known theatrical manager, who
disappeared in December last, was
found in the water last night off South
Brooklyn.
The body was so badly decomposed
that Identification was difficult, and
the clothes were torn to shreds. IN
one pocket were found business cards
bearing the name "P. j. Kennedy,
and Masonic Identification card OF
Mecca Temple, No. 46S. bore the same
name.
Mr.. Kennedy disappeared December
2S. His hat and Overcoat were found
on a ferryboat which landed at Thirty
ninth street, South Brooklyn. from the
Battery, Manhattan. The same night
Mrs. Kennedy received a special deliv
cry letter from her husband In which
he said he was about to drown him
self.
Mr.. Kennedy was one OF the best
known of theatrical men. AT one
time he managed John l.. Sullivan and
later made a fortune with the comedy
lyon Yonson. His wife, who was
Miss Beatrice Norman, daughter OF
Mrs. Annie Mack Berlin, we'll known
actress. had starred for several sea.
sons under her husbands manage
ment. She appeared on the road in a
number OF plays.
Mr.. Kennedy's last venture was
with Ella Wheeler Wilcox's "Mizpah. "
This play, in which Mr.. Kennedy in
vested all his money. was failure
and 1t is supposed that brooding over
this caused him to take his life.

Exposition Will Open in
Incomplete State.
A NAVAL PAGEANT
Ia Connection with the Expo. Is tx
pected to Make Up for Defic-
iencies on the Land Side.

Norfolk, Va, April 22.--Dcspite the
splendid efforts of energetic officials
and thousands of carpenters, masons,
cement walk builders and landscape
gardeners, the jamestown tercenten.
nial exposition will be opened this
week unready. Many of the magnifi-
cent structures that are to house do.
nestle and foreign commercial exhib.
Its and shelter the achievements OF
The Industrial arts are incomplete.
In the beauty Of the water show,
with Its amazing gathering OF foreign
fleets representing the most formid-
able types of naval fighting machines
of nearly every power Of the world,
and in an opening program with Pres.
Ident Roosevelt in the leading role
and with the~ diplomatic, military
and naval Representatives of great and
small foreign nations participating.
The public will have It's recompense.
so vast Is this program that exposi-
lion visitors will not have time to
take notice of the unfinished state OF
the buildings and grounds.
The grounds and buildings at the
exposition are about 80 per cent. fin.
ished No exposition ever before has
presented such a permanent appear
ence and this In great measure is
responsible for the delay. Several OF
the most important buildings are built
solidly of brick, cement ald iron, and
these are intended to remain on the
grounds as nucleus of a great park.
Regardless of the permanency Of the
work, however, the exterior of most
Of the buildings will be ready when
the exposition Is formally opened on
Friday next. The unfinished state
that now annoys the eye is due almost
wholly to unsightly debris with which
the exposition grounds is strewn.
The inception OF the jamestown
tercentennial exposition sprang from
desire OF a people, many of them de-
scendant from that hardy English
stock that settled among the Indians
here 800 years ago to teach to its
brothers and sisters and display to
visitors from the older nations the tra-
ditlons that have been handed down
by those courageous colonists. II was
intended that the exposition should
Ue nlStOTlCdI, buL ~ Huo 5IoWH poyoHu
the dreams of It's &Rinators. When
completed 1t will bAs, ,imost all that Is
implied in the expression "a worlds
fair" but 1t will not stop there.
No other exposition has attempted
to show the world the life of the colo.
nists, the hardshlps of the pioneers
who opened new country after civili-
zation had been attained on the sea-
board and the achievements these
people worked from raw material.
Twenty-Five states or the Union will
trace their history from their earliest
days to the present and the exhibits
will be sheltered by appropriate build
lngs,
The state buildings have been
grouped along the historic shore OF
Hampton Roads and they command
an excellent view of the navies of the
world. 1t is this great naval display
which will prove the crowning glory
OF the exposition. Nothing like 1t has
ever before been attempted. There
have been gatherings OF fleets before.
but not on such tremendous scale as
will be accomplished here.
