bACCALAUREATE
SERMONS 1T
TWO SCHOOLS

In his baccaulaureate address before the
graduating class or the Rhode Isla nd
College OF Agriculture and Mechanic Arts
at Kingston yesterday. Rev. Robert b.
Parker, rector OF ST. James EIecopal
church OF this city. emphasized the fall
lacy OF the belief that mankind should
be righteous merely for the sake Of es-
Gaping eternal punishment In another
world. and urged upon his hearers the
belief that the kingdom Of God In reality
Is the realization OF Jesus Chr.st's idea
OF society.
He disposed OF the belief that the king
dom of God Is merely an ark OF safety
for the salvation OF mems souls. He Nn-
pressed upon the students and others
present that Christianity Is not a mega
tive thing. and said that anyone who
stands merely for negative existence Is
In his opinion already condemned In
Gods eyes. He spoke for a personal re-
lation with God as a guide and inspirer
and counselled that His promptings be
incarnated i'm word and act In the lifo
OF his hearers.
The baccalaureate exercises began with
the invocation and the responsive read
ing OF the 139th psalm. After Scripture
reading and prayer by Rev. Charles T.;
Redheld came a solo. Like as the Hart"
The singing OF a hymn followed. after
which Dr. Parker delivered the baccalau-
reate address on THE Kingdom of God. 7"
A solo. 20, Divine Redeemer," and the
benedction closed the services.
AT EAST GREENWICH.
The graduating classes of the East
Greenwich academy gathered at tho
Methodist church in that town yesterday
forenoon and heard the baccalaureate
sermon delivered by Rev. Charles a.
Stenhouse, the new principal. The chan
eel was deliberately adorned. with June
flowers, and many friends we're In at
tendance.
The speakers topic was THE Divine
Life; The Light OF Men" He said IN
part:
Christ is a light to men In certain
broad principles on which He established
His life, and commands men to follow
Him.
First, the paramount principle in HIS
life was obedience.
"The second great law OF His life was
resistance.
"The third great principle was the law
OF self-denial and vicarious suffering.
"The fourth principle upon which He
acted constantly was His spirit OF philan-
thropy. He loved all men, and that love
exalted men,"
The preacher OF the conference sermon
in the evening was Rev. Porter NJ. VIM
ton, pastor of the. Methodist church at
Centreville, who gave an able and inter-
esting discourse based upon Psalm Will. ',
What is man that thou art mindful or
him, and the son of man that thou visit
est him?'

..The Old World And It's WAYS"

Col. William jennings Bryan an
nounces a new book of travel entitled
1.-The Old World and its Ways" which
recounts his recent tour around the
world and his journeys through
Europe 1t is ~profusely and elegantly
illustrated with 240 artistic e~ngravings
resenting men and things seen in the
various countries of the earth dur
ing that noted journey. The engrav
ings are made from photographs taken
By him CT his party specially foT his
publication. 1t is the monumental
literary work of his life, and it is pub
lished under his special personal super
vision. He has, byspeeial contract with
his pu blishers, made the retail prices
low down with the view to putting it
within the easy reach of every reader
of books and every man or woman who
thinks,
The book gives his experience
what he saw and did-whom he met
and his impressions and conclusions.
He made a profound study of men aud
things as he saw them in this noted
journey around the world. He gives
governmental, educational religious
and other conditions, from the stand
point Of a student and n profoundly
interested in the people of the earth,
wherever distributed.
While Col. Bryan travelled as a pri-
vate citizen he went with the prestige
of having made two memorable con-
tests for the Presidency of the United
States, aud he was everywhere recog-
nized and entertained as a great re-
preventative American, having a lead
ing part in the direction Of American
affairs. He was given opportunity
for observation and conditions never
before accorded to any one travelling.
in private capacity.
If one wants to see the world, and
the people who are at the head of
affairs in all countries, as well as the
masses, he has in this book an oppor-
tunity of seeing them through the
eyes Of Col. William Jennings Bryan,

Thompson Publishing Company Of St.
Louis, Mo-. are the fortunate publish
ers. They offer an opporrunirV for

Samuel Fl. Adams is now after the
police force Of New York City. In
Golfers for last week, he says
"The Police Department Of the
City of New York is a semi.secret
and a semi-criminal organization
Where its ends can be accomplished
without publicity, it fosters crime
instead OF preventing 1t, it conceal1
crime instead Of detecting it," 1t is
doubtful whether the protectors OF
the great metropolis are quite the
organization Of thugs that Mr.. Adams
would have US believe; but police
forces in great cities are won't to
become the instruments Of political
machines and to register the low
water mark of our political life.

which the Constitution contains, is

Indians as whites 10 this provision
is significant and indicates that in a

The conviction Of Harvey Salmon
this week, nearly two years after the
Salmon bank failure and upon a trial
10 another coun' y, must come as a
surprise tC those who are accustomed
to distrust courts and jrrles. There
has b co a widespread doubt, too, as
TO Mr. Salmon's acquaintance with
the condition Of the bank. He did
not live in Clinton and tool very
little active interest In the fairs OF
the bank. His ignorance of the
condition OF the institutions might
be readily conceded by those who
have long entertained a favorable
opinion OF the mans integrity. But
whatever evil may be said of the
times in which we live, it must be
agreed that men are now held to a
stricter accountability in the
performance OF a public trust than
they have been in the past Officers
and directors Of corporations,
especially Of banks, trust companies
and such institutions, have no right
to be mere 6gureheads. They ought
not to be permitted to plead
i%gnorauces OF the matters which they
are supposed to have 10 charge. The
fact that cashier Casey assumed full
charge Of the banks affairs is not
sufficient excuse for the other officers.
He ought not to have been
permitted to assume full charge.
1t is had enough for a man to hold
such an office and shirk the work
He should not be permitted to shirk
the responsibility in any event.
