NEW YORK, Feb. Eft Jesus

OF mollycoddles."
The true Christian when it is neces-
gary to night does So"
Jesus gave no legislation. except
possibly that He did issue a law upon
the subject of divorce
These are d few of the u~tterances of
DR.. Charles A. Eaton, pastor of the
Madison Avenue Baptist Church, in his
sermon yesterday on What Would
Jesus Do in New York;"
DR.. Eaton was formerly pastor of the
Euclid Avenue Baptist Church. in
Cleveland, which is attended by John
.. Rockefeller, and has been known as
"Rockefeller's pastor" a designation nc
doesn't relish.
Or. Eaton took the ground that Jesus,
Ii on earth today. would not try to
legislate men into righteousness. He
made it very plain that he didn't be-
lleve in the legislative route to purity
and worth.
The only way to learn what He
would do" said the pastor, lis to tx
anime what e did do.
IF He did come here He wouldn't be
born on Fifth avenue; that's certain.
More probably He would be born ON
Mott street or Elizabeth street. surely
in some poor section of the lower east
side. and understand me, not from any
absurd prejudice against the rich, but
because of the natural law that every
thing must work from the bottom up.
So He would exert Els influence at the
bottom of the social scale, where it is
most needed. And that is one eason
why an exclusive, aristocratic church is
an impossibility from a Christian stand
point.
"Jesus would probably, as OF old,
learn a trade, and when He grew to
young manhood do you think He would
stand on m of those lower east side
streets and want to smite down those
u~nsanitary tenements? No. First He
would look at the multitudes In that
section, and He would try to teach
them. He would smite that civilization
that makes it necessary for people to
live as they do.
Then il He came uptown, say to
Fifth avenue n Forty-second street.
and saw that tide of wealth and Gull
ture 1 think He would be moved BY
the very same emotions that moved
Him downtown. He would see too
much frivolity. too much mock refine

gagements. He would see. just as He
saw downtown, spirits crushed by their
environment. What difference does it
make whether crushed by poverty or
by plenty? The spirit is crushed just

Jesus If He wanted to help a man
wouldn't dress him smartly and give
him money and invite him to go TO an

WILSON THINKS HIS
q. A. r. BILL WON'T PASS

ATLANTIC CITY. Feb. Ex-senator
Edward Wilson, Of this county. an
nounced today hat he did not think his
bill to get an appropriation to provide
for the Grand Army of the Republic
at the national encampment at Atlantic
City next year would become a law.
The shortage of funds in the State
treasury will scarcely permit the APP
preparation of the $35, 1000 asked for, he
said.
G. A. r. men here intend to stir up
their fellow members in other parts OF
the State to use their best efforts to
secure the cash.

Shepherd and his lieuutenants were fin

being in the New Jersey State prison a
short time, were released, and Congress,

peared before Judge Depue in his court
as defendants in suits of Joel Parker,
receiver for the company, to recover
money from them for the benefit of the
policy holders. A publication of the in
side facts caused the lawyers for the
defendants to ask Judge Depue for a
p-ostponement, and the result was a set
Element that enabled tbs receiver to pay
the policy-holders a fair percentage of
what was due them.
Mr.. Guild was successful in a number
of murder cases in which he defended
those accused, but he was unsuccessful
in defending Mrs. Meierhoffer and

whom were executed for the murder
of the woman's husband on the Orange

four years afterward as a counselor,
He opened a law office of his own, built
UP a good practise and then formed a
partnership with Theodore Runyon,
under the firm name of Runyon Dc
Guild. Afterward he and the present
Vice-Chancellor Stevens were partners,
and the late Ludlow McCarter became
a member of the firm.
More h a thirty years ago Mr.. Guild
formed a partnership with the late
Fred II. Lum, and it continued until the
death of the latter several years ago.
AS a cross-examiner and a jury
pleader in criminal cases, Mr.. Guild
never had a superior in New Jersey.
He was chief advisory or counsel in
some of the greatest criminal trials
held in Essex county. and in leading
civil suits also. He was rated as the
peer of John Graham and James t.
Brody, of New York, in criminal prac-
tise, and many later day criminal law
yers copied his methods with varying
results.
Made City Attorney.
Moses Bige1ow, who was Mayor of
Newark, for seven years from 1851, APP
pointed Mr.. Guild city attorney to sue
coed Theodore Runyon, who was made
city counsel After he returned from
the Civil War, in which he commanded
the First Brigade, New Jersey Volun-
teers, General Runyon was elected
Mayor of Newark in 1864, and he made
Mr.. Guild city counsel for his term of
two years.
In March. 1875, Mr.. Guild was again
appointed city counsel to succeed Nehe-
miah Perry, jr,, deceased, n in 1884,
Mayor Joseph Emmett Haynes con-
ferred the same honor on him. In 1894
he was again called to fill the same
position. He served once in The Boarc
of Health n once in the Board of Edu-
cation, and he was also an efficient
member of the Police Board for several
years. But he never sought a higf
political office. Governor Leon Albeit
rendered him an appointment as pre-
siding Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas Of Essex county. which he de
clined, and a former law partner, Lud-
low McCarter, was appointed.
