THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD
Secular Religion a Feature Of Present
Day, Says Professor.

The world can no longer be consld.
cred as a sphere of human life, sepa-
rate from or antagonistic to the
church. Too much religion has got
ten out of the church into the world
to allow us to think of all the good
being in the church. and of the world
as being nothing but evil. Religion
is taking on secular, in distinction
from exclusively ecclesiastical, forms
of expression There is coming to
be world church, having a religious
consciousness to which nothing that
Is common to man Is foreign, and In
a sacriflcial service for all the world.
We have builded better than we
know. Our philanthropies and re-
forms have sanctified the secular.
have manifoded our ministeries. The
religious valuation of the single soul,
sanctity of the one life, worth of the
person above things, is forcing broth
erhood upon business, and making 1t
the corollary to the proposition of the
'atherhood of God. The doctrine OF

A STRANGE SENTENCE.
Punishment For Murder That Was
More Cruel Than Death

wore Cruel Than Death.
In 1901 man died In the Catskills
who had been condemned by one Of
the strangest sentences on record

lived In a stone house near Leeds. He

Unable TO endure any longer the
raging temper Of her master. the girl
ran away. Immediately upon discov

an angry chase upon his horse and

never reached the house alive. and
Sutherland was indicted and arrested
on the charge OF murder.
At the trial he tried to prove that
his horse had taken fright. run away.
pitched him out Of the saddle and
dashed the girl to death upon the
rocks. but the jury did not accept the
defense. and Sutherland was sentenced
to die upon the scaffoid.
Then came the plea of the INSULT
cheney of circumstantial evidence and
the efforts of influential relatives.
These 80 worked upon the court that
the judge delayed the sentence Of
death until the prisoner should be
ninety-nlne years old.
1t was ordered that the culprlt
should he released on his own rccog-
nizance and that, pending the final ex-
ecutiOn of his sentence, he should keep
q hangman's moose about his neck and
show himself before the judges of
Catskill once n year TO prove that he
wore his badge Of infamy and kept
his crime in mind. It was more
cruel decision than the sentence Of i'm.
mediate death would have been, but
1t was no doubt in harmony with the
spirit Of the times.
Thus Ralph Sutherland lived. He al.
ways lived alone. He seldom spoke.

At last his ninety ninth year came
the time when the court had ordered
that the utmost penalty Of the law
should be executed. For the last time
the man tottered before the Judges
bench, but new judges had arisen In
the land, new laws had been made, old
crimes had been forgotten or forgiven
and there was none who would accuse
him or execute sentence. Indeed, the
awful restriction that had bound his
life 30 intimately to the expiation Of
his crime was now legally removed.
But the spirit Of self punishment
continued, and when Sutherland, aftel

WOMEN IN THE STOCK MARKET
Wall street Brokers Have Private
Rooms for Fair Patrons.

The number OF women spectators
fs amazingly large-much larger than
even the ordinary Wall street habitue
would imagine. II Is not commonly
known, but It is a fact that many
brokerage houses maintain private
rooms for their women customers.
with more often than not, private en-.
frances. There are several reasons
for this. One is that many women
who speculate do 80 secretly, without
the knowledge of their family, their
relatives or their friends. On this &C.
count they desire privacy, desire to
move and have their Wall street be-
Ing unknown. Another reason Is that
the broker himself desires 1t, princi-
pally, be 1t confessed, because he Is
anxious that II there be any scenes"
they shall be- private ones. Far from
the maddening crowds ignoble strife"
and sight. For truth compels the
statement that women are poorer los
ers than men. 1t is the testimony Of
conservative brokers that woman

vindictiveness. She seems to be car.

gree that becomes uncomfortably dis
