WHAT SHALL BE PREACHEDP
Church Congress Speaker Believes in
Taking Up Social Questions.

NEW ORLEANS, April 13.-When the
third days session of the twenty-fifth an.
nual Protestant Episcopal Church congress-
opened yesterday morning the topic brought
up for discussion was What Shall the
Preacher Preach? In paper on this subs
1ect Rev. DR.. George r. Van de Waiter.
rector Of st. Andrews Church of New YorlA
said
shall the preacher concern himself In
his preaching with the social questions Of
the day? Yes, IL he Is careful not to be-
come such a faddist that he can preach
about nothing else How. indeed, can D
man be a preached and not be deeply con-
cerned with the social questions OF the
day? Yet St Paul was not forever harp
ing about the incestuous Corinthians nor
telling women on all occasions how to ar
range their headgear when they went to
church.
..Is the preacher to refer to current lit
erature and the passing novel. and how
passing? Passing, most novels are. Yes,
assuredIy but never let the congregation
think that the preacher knows more about
The Call of the Blood or tho Awakening
of Helena Richie than he does about the
prophecy of Ezekiel, or the Gospel accord
Ing to d. Luke.

SAYS AMERICA SAVED CHINA.
But Couldn't but for Spanish War,
Says C. Emory Smith.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, April 13-Charles
Emory Smith of Philadelphia, formerly
Postmaster General of the United States,
spoke in Hendric Hall last night before tho
Yale Law School Political Club on the
subject American Expansion and World
Influence" Dean Henry Wade Rogers of
the law school presided. Mr.. smith said
in part:
I'VE all wildly remember the violent
Boxer outbreak in China. 1t was a mo-
mentous contest between civilization and
barbarism. Had the vital chapter coma
in 1897. before the spanish-American war,
the United States would have played no
part in it. England, France. Germany,
Russia and Japan would have furnished
the allied forces for the subjugation of the
uprising and would have decided all the
questions which grew out of the conflict,
and the United States would have exer-
cised no more voice in their determin ton
than did Belgium or Holland But the
chapter came in 1900, instead Of 1897 and
the United States, instead of looking on In
helpless horror. played a great and Leading
part in the stupendous drama. 1t was the
United States that prevented the outbreak
from becoming a general war by insisting
that 1t should be treated only as q revolt,
and thus keeping Off the hands of the
powerful southern viceroys. We went into
China because we had already gone into
the Philippines. We were there by right
and We were there with force. We went
because We had house next door. The
whole movement was a logical develop
ment
Consider some of the results already
achieved. We know that in the negotia-
tions of the powers during and following
the Chinese outbreak the United States
gained the position of the best friend Of
China. We know that China came to feel
under greater obligations to us than to any
other nation l believe it Is within the
bounds of truth to say that the attitude
and action of the United States prevented
the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the ancient empire
at that juncture.
I'VE have gwen the Filpinos a degree
Of personal protection and security which
they have never enjoyed before. We have
rescued them from the pestilent system Of
administrative corruption and exactions
which had oppressed them throughout
their history. We have largely destroyed
the native brigandage under which they
had suffered for 400 years We are train,
ing half million children in primary and
Industrial education. and more people now
speak English than Spanish. We have
opened new lands, driven out pestilence,
established hospitals. ordained a practical
civil service in which the Fflipinos chiefly
share, and have made their daily lot OF lite
UNNECESSARILY better than they had ever
dreamed Of under any preceding rule"

TO LIVE FOR REINSTATEMENT.
But for the Present Summing Citrate
Will Do Literary Work.

NEW YORK, April 13.-W. Howard
Mears sat in his study today looking the
picture of cheerfulness in spite of the fact
that he had been deposed from the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church as the result Of a
stunning tour which he says was made
in a search for material for a sermon
Mr.. Mears says he intends to earn liv-
ing by literary work, but hopes to be re-
instated in the ministry.
First I shall take a rest, for I have
worked hard for five years and need one"
he said. after that 1 shall decide what
sort Of work I shall take up. I have a
number Of offers already of different ma
lures. but shall probably take up literary
work In whatever do, however, I shall
endeavor to conduct myself so that 1 may
merit reinstatement in the ministry of the
Episcopalian Church.
Although, of course, I regret the occur
renee very much, have no conjunction
of resentment against the committee.
unwittingly transgressed one of my or
dination vows, but with no wrong mo-
tive. I believe that Bishop Greer is
friend of mine, as well as all the other
clergymen who know about the affair, and
as for the public-you know they say the
public be hanged
For the present I shall try not to let
any vinegar creep into my feelings. Mis-
ter is always as good as reverend or doc
tor, or any other degree"
