CHRISTIAN MINISTER A
PROPHET, NOT PRIEST

At Second Baptist Church. Franklin
and Ninth streets. the Rev. Thomas p.
Holloway. pastor last Sunday morning
discussed the spirit and Office OF the
Prophet" calling attention TO the fact
that the prophet was a heaven-ordain-
ed man of courage with a message
from God. who made no compromise
with the people 70 whom he was sent.
but delivered his message without lear
or favor. and not as the priest whose
function was to merely symbolic spir-
itual truth. which the prophet exempli-
fed In godly living. Tomorrow Mr..
Holloway will discuss the question as
to whether the present day preacher
is following the example Of the proDh
or priest, using as his subject, "The
Christian Minister a Prophet and Not
a Priest" The Sunday evening subject
will be "A Cracked Liberty Bell" The
evening service will be patriotic in
character and will be confined to one
hour. The Sunday school decided to
have a session each Sunday afternoon
during the summer and not close as 1t
has been doing for several years past.

Archery Popular VIA Women.

Only three Of the competitions at the
approaching Olympic games in London
will be open to women. They are ten
mis-. skating and archery, and of the
three probably the greatest interest will
90 to the last. Archery is spreading as
a sport for women In Europe, and it is
expected there viii be about 100 con-
testants for the Olympic prizes. Wo-
men Of the kings household in Eng
land have taken up the bow and arrow,
and 1t is also more popular in exclusive
circles in France than tennis. Thirty
Frenchwomen viii enter the Olympic
shoot. Entries have been solicited from
America, but so far none has been
forthcoming. The women competitors
will shoot forty-eight arrows at fifty
yards and forty-eight arrows at six
ty yards for two days in succession,
the three finishing in the lead to re-
ceive gold, silver and bronze med
ais respectively. Many Englishwomen
have organized a national archery as
sociation, and it is likely that, follow
ing the lead of pingpong and diabolo,
archery will become a pastime of wo-
men in this country.

One wonders what kind of wedding
gift the Roosevelts will send TO the
daughter of Whitelaw Reid when she
becomes Mrs. Ward. There are hints
that the president is not enthusiastic
about international alliances. He was
positively angry toward Theodore p.
Shonts when that mans daughter The
odora was married to the Due de
Chaulnes. When the duke and duchess
were in Washington in the honeymoon
the duchess, who had been on terms Of
intimacy with the Roosevelts, asked
permission to call and present her hus-
band. Miss Hagner sent a curt intima-
ton that Mrs. Roosevelt would not be
at liberty to receive the duchess at any
time in her stay in Washington. There
was great chattering in society about
the incident and more still when it be-
came whispered that the president had
expressed frank opinions to Shonts
about the marriage. So there is guess
ing about the greeting for Jean Reid,
who is to be married outside the
charmed circle of Harvard men, Re
publicans and rough riders, all Amer
leans.
