Men and the Church.

Men did attend the church of Rev. pr. William R. Huntington, whose life of service came to close few days ago. He made no effort to win popularity by sensational sermons or notohety by bizarre programs. Canary birds did not sing in his choir, men did not smoke in his pews, moving pictures were not flashed from his pull pit He was content to preach the Word of God and he preached 1t with earnestness and vigor.
 Men went to hear him. His weekly conEregatIon numbered among It's members scores of the strong men of New York, the men who are doing things out in the world of action. These men went to church week after week because their interest in religion was alive and because they felt themselves benefited and uplifted by the sermons which Dr. huntington preached with such straightforward sincerity.
 Men are not done with religion or the church, as so many pessimists seem co think. The success of ,clergymen like pr. Huntington, and there are many like him, in attracting men to their churches and holding them there by the simple preaching of the Word of ! God proves they are nos

WEALTHY TRAVELLERS CONTINUE
 SPECULATION AT SEA.
Rig Vessel Makes Record Run, ana Many Bet On ResuIts-Wireless Operators Are Kept
 Busy.

New York, Aug. 1e.-There were enough men of affairs in Wall street on the big Cunarder Lusitania, which got to her pier from Liverpool a few mornings ago, to have formed stock exchange of their own. As 1t was they kept the wireless operator busy dur ing the latter part of the voyage send ing ashore orders to buy and sell stocks.
 Among those who arrived were Jules Bache, senior member of the firm of J. s. Baohe 6 Co.,; Anthony N. Brady, James Philips, IT,, President of the Nevada Consolidated Copper Company; Alfred G. Vanderbilt, Gerald L. Hoyt of the banking firm of Maitland L. Coppell Co.,; Archer Harmon, Presi- dent of the Guayaquil 6 Quito Rail- road: George B. Post. IT,. of the firm of Post and FlagG; Max Pamm, and B. M. Branch.
 The Lusitania clipped three hours off her best previous time, coming over the long course in days 1s hours and 40 minutes. At one time during the last lap of the voyage she made a burst of speed, going 27:6O knots in an hour. This speeding of the liner gave opportunity for interesting betting on the days run, the average speed each day. and the time of reaching the San dy Hook lightship. There was some exciting betting on these events and the pools were very large.
 Teddy" Marks and Walter Kelly, theatrical men, cleared $2,SSO, winning two out of three pools on the days run. On Wednesday MT. Baruch drew number 625. He afterward was per- suaded to sell 1t to Marks and Kelly for $40. That number won and they took in about $1,O0o.
 Mir. Phillips spent two month 5 abroad during which time he traveled extensively on the continent. He de- clared that business conditions in Ger many were much as they are here, but that in England things are In very unsettled state.
 Copper shipped from this country to England I found had gone into the warehouses, which demonstrates" he said, that the consumption Is very low. In Germany the copper market Is being sustained and the consumption of copper in that country is far in ex- cess of that in England.
 MT. Phillips believes, however, that with the settlement of the budget | question in England the situation will | improve and that with the starting of public and private enterprises the de- mand for copper will become great.
 Jules S. Bache predicted a rise in the stock market. He said that conditions abroad were such as to lend encour' aRement to American trading.
 q do not believe the theory that the advance in the market is attribut' able to the manipulative practices or the part of large financiers and opera | tors" he said T believe that th' rise in values is due entirely to thu law of supply and demand, aided b! an intelligently directed campaign Crops in Europe and in those coun tries known as supply countries VII be small, and this helps the situation here. In fact, I consider the situation
 here very roseate."

cHIcAGoAN AT BARCELONA.
Gives Vivid Description of stirring
 SceBes.


 New York. Aug. 16-The experiences of e Chicagoan who was in Barcelona during the insurrection there in July. were related today by O. B. Stuart. who arrived from the Spanish port on the steamer Buenos Ayres the first ves- sel to come from that city since the outbreak. Mir. Stuart Is postohce inspector at Manila.
 Much attention was paid to the Buenos Ayres as she was loading am- munition for Melilla," said MT. Stuart. Threats were made that the loading must stop. Finally on the 26th the crowd became so threatening near the vessel that the loading ceased and the vessel prepared to sail at noon. Firing was heard some distance from the dock.
 Finally, after some hours of anx- iety the lines were cast off and we pro- ceeded to Malaga. There we were and taken to Cadiz. the Buenos Ayres having been seized by the government.
 "On board at the time were 100 in- fantry taken on at Barcelona. These were added to by 660 artillerymen and 1,5O0 cavalrymen, and the Buenos Ayres proceeded to Melilla. Barcelona troops were almost in a state of rpu- tiny and when a short distance from shore eleven of them threw overheard their guns and equipments. They were tried by drumhead courtmartial after landing and were shot.
 After landing the troops. the Buenos Ayres returned to Cadiz and brought us to New York. The next Spanish vessel will bring over large number of Americans, who were to have come on the Buenos Ayres.
