WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH JESUS?
Dr. Chapman's Subject at the Church
 of the Redeemer Last Night.

The last meeting at the Church of the Redeemer last night in the second week of the Chapman services found the pews about as well filled as they were week ago-no more SO It is difficult, of course, to say whether diff ferent people are being drawn to the services all the time. There are, how Eever, many who are seen at the ser- vices every evening-es regularly as can be
 Dr. Chapman preached another short sermon, finishing well before o'clock. He took his text from the 27th chapter of Matthew, the story of the trial of Jesus before Pilot.
 'I had just closed one of our noon- day meetings in the city of oakland" he said, when a young man came up to me and asked me if he could speak to me in private. When we were alone he told me a wonderful story. It seems he was a fugitive from justice under an assumed name. He had mar ried an innocent girl. hiding from her | his great secret. She and he had been given a little boy from God. The young man said to me: I have just heard you preach on the subject: What will you do with Jesus. It is a solemn thing But there is another question that is trougling me and it is more solemn still, It is: What will Jesus do with me?'
 You cannot afford to set Him aside" continued pr. Chapman. 'If you do, some day you will be called to ac- count.
 'The blood of Jesus Christ has two cries-redemption and condemnation | A line might be drawn through this congregation It would go zig-zag. There would beta husband on one side and a wife on the other; there would be parents on this side and children on the other: there would be friends on this side and dearly loved ones on i the other. One class would be of the redeemed and the other of the con- demned
 s'There are two ways to interpret the text What shall 1 do with Jesus? i The first is by word emphasis. Put the emphasis first on the word T. i Once it was a question of Jesus or Bar abas: now it is a question of Jesus or the world, pleasures, sin and self. What are you doing? You must do something. He is standing here to- night with us as surely as I am. If you put Him aside you are not merely putting aside the appeal of the evan- gelist or your minister. You yourself must answer for your decision.
 sThe other way 10 interpret this question is as Mir Torrey used to do MT Torrey used to say that He was our living peace. our peace in storm darkness. heart-breaking home deso- lation. when the vacant grave yawns when the motherless children sob when we come to the end of life (ef- fectively).

RELIGION IN A ROUNDHousE.
MT. Burwick Talks at Midnight to a
 Gathering of Railroad Men.

Shortly after F o'clock last night Mir. Burwick, the railroad evangelist with the Chapman forces, began his second midnight service for the engineers of the New Haven road at the round- house. As on Tuesday night the round. vice was held during the lunch hour of the men, and in the engineers room, a small, dismal sort of a place which is dark and foreboding. Around the walls of it were the lockers of the men. Outside the window through the drt-begrirhed glass could be seen a score or two of engines, awaiting their turn to go out on the road with trains. As the evangelist spoke. the men came Tn, one by one, to report for orders and as the door opened and closed, the roar of the escaping steam from the engines almost drowned out his voice. But Mir. Burwick is used to speaking under such conditions and it did not trouble him bit. His talk was in the railroad vernacular as usual.

CHERRY MEETING
 FOR AGED PEOPLE
Continued from First Page.)

You can be living in heaven long be- lore death comes.
 Don't go if you can stay. The whole country needs you; the ctiy, the family, the church. your friends, all need you. But when you can't afford to stay longer on this side, away from your crown of glory, know that you will go to be with those whom you love and who love you and that you will be no longer of feeble clay.'
 At the conclusion of the services Shall We Gather at the River?" was sung and at the beginning of each verse those in the galleries were asked to wave the Chautauqua salute with their handkerchiefs to the aged ones below them. It was a beautiful sight. It was not long before the old people were waving back to those above them and then to each other, the tears cours- ing down their faces the while.

STRENGTHENED TIGERS WIN
Two Players from the West Aid Paw tucket in Defeating the
 Rough Riders.
NATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING

Strengthened by two Interstate stars, Thompson and Mallory, the Providence Grays stole lap on the league leaders, easily defeating them by the score of to 3. Not until the final period were the locals able to quell the rapid and continuous attacks of McGilvrays five, and then it was too late and they were destined by the cruel fates to lose one game this week New Haven unwil- lingly was overpowered by the Rhode Island aggregation, the final score be- ing to 3.
 New Haven was doomed from the opening of the contest to defeat. The Providence five were out for blood, and the locals although fighting doggedly to overcome the Grays' strong five, were forced to succumb to unconditional de- feat. Farrell and Bone were in great form and their work alone shone out as opposed to that of the visitors. Far rell played both center and rush and at times when Mullen rushed out from in front of the cage to stop a drive. Wild Bill covered the danger zone.

 In the final period New Haven ap- peared to revive and played a remark able game, Mallory alone saving the visitors from being beaten.

YALE TRIMS TIGERS Ellis Win First Basketball Game of the Intercollegiate
 Series.
FRED MURPHY IS THE STAR
Princeton Unable to Score More Tnan Three Points in the First Hall
 of the Contest.

The Yale basketball team started on the intercollegiate season well last night defeating Princeton at the Yale gymnasium by score of 2S to l6 The Tigers were outclassed from start to finish and only scored when the Elis had put in substitutes. Princeton could not break up the fast and bewilderins passing of Captain Moves men and when they did get the ball indulged in random shots from the center of the court. Yale depended upon fast team work, and made no shots that were not comparatively sure
 While the work of the entire Yale team was first class, the star of the game was Fred Murphy whose blocking and all around defensive work at guard made him stand out most prom inently among the players of both teams. Art Wren scored several pretty baskets. Captain Moves played very open game and was all over the court. For Princeton, Captain Halliday and Ryan excelled. the Tigers leader showing up brilliantly late in the sec .ond half
 The game began with a rush. Van Week scored the first basket for Yale on a clever pass from Clifford. and ir another minute repeated his perform ance on pass from Wren. A foul was called on Princeton and Captain Moves threw the goal. After missing several tries Clifford at last got his eye on the netting and scored two pretty baskets. Princeton then scored on a foul by Yale. and Ryan added two points more to his side with goal jus before the whistle blew The first hall ended with Yale leading l5 to g.
 Princeton crept up during the second half, but 1t was not until Yale had sen in two substitutes that they began tc look at all dangerous. Wren excellet for Yale In this half and Fred Mur' phy surprised himself and delighted the Yale fans by getting a goal, nc doubt in retaliation for one scored b. his opponent, Meese.

GRAIN BAGS
Be Cheaper

OLYMPIA, Wash, March IS
State Grain Commissioner J. w. Ar
rasmith has furnished the state
board of control with a statement
(estimated) of the amount of grain
produced in 1907 in the grain grow
ing counties of the state. Under the
new law the board will use this es-
innate in apportioning the number
of penitentiary-m grain bags
that may be sold to the respective
counties. The board will make the
apportionment probably this week
and fix the price of grain bags prob
ably at about ~ cents, which will
be 4 cents less than last years
price, the reduction being possible
from the fact that jute was purchas-
ed at a considerably lower figure
than usual.
The estimate shows that the 10
growing counties have 2,000,-
900 acres of wheat producing 40
$4,000 bushels; 141.000 acres in
barley, producing 5,440,O0o bushels,
and $4,000 acres in oats, produc-
ing $3.50 bushels.
