/. CHURCH FAREWELL

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 12-Dr. Henry Stiles
Bradley yesterday babe farewell to his
congregation at St. Johns Methodist
Episcopal church. He will become pas
tor of the Piedmont Congregational
church at Worcester, Mass.
Dr. Bradley declared Christ was Tenn
porizer, taking as his text John 16:12-13,
IT have many things to say unto you.
but you cannot hear them now, but when
He, the spirit of truth. is come, He will
guide you unto all truth.
Or. Bradley added
eff Jesus had spoken his full mind,
they would not have waited three years
nor three days to cruelty Him. 1 think
1 have come in contact with few men and
women who would not be shocked to
know the whole truth, but they are very
few. The spirit of truth is by no means
confined exclusively within the realms
OF the church.
"Jesus did not speak His full mind on
war. Had He said slavery is a crime and
sin He would have offended his friends
Today, by saying such a thing, I would
not offend a man in the southern states.
am willing to say today mat believe
absolutely in the equality of men and
women. and that women ought to be ac-
corded every right man Is accorded.
THE Roman Catholic church ought to
thank God for Luther and the reforma-
tIon. All those who have discovered
remedies for disease, as well as states
men. musicians, artists, Free Masons,
Odd Fellow and Pythians, possess the
spirit of truth. The spirit OF God moves
those who are bringing society's ex-
tremes together"
DR.. Bradley was once acquitted Of the
charge of heresy by the North Georgia
conference, Methodist church, south, as
a result of his teachings. Rev. Bradley
was given an ovation in the church today
He expressed the hope that Methodists

tors terms.

WHAT THE PRESS OF THE WORLD
THINKS OF COOK-PEARY DISPUTE

discussion afresh regarding the claims
of Peary and DR.. Cook. German geog-
aphcrs, such as GraYelius, Helimann.
Sieglin, Suering and Friedrichsen, have
been disposed throughout to believe the
word of both Cook and Peary, as they
had no reason to doubt the scientific
competence or sincerity Of either ex-
plorer.
The newspapers, which are comments
ing freely on the subject, consider that
Commander Peary's friends and posi-
bly, ne himself, has shown too bitter a
feeling toward DR.. Cook, feeling.
which, they say, is neither sportsman
like, scientific nor ethical.
Professor Suering, writing in the
Norddeusche Allegemeine Zeitung, says
that scientific circles need not be deep
ly concerned whether the one or tbs
other explorer took observations amid
the field of ice, which showed the in
struments to be located at the north
pole or which reached there first Sci
entists may consider 1T settled that both
men with unwearied zeal have attained
their aim.

AMERICANS MUST LEARN
BETTER PACKING METHODS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Although.
the American exporter has still room
for improvement in the matters OF
packing products for export, he has
made some progress in this line, re-
ports Special Agent Arthur B. Butman,
reporting from Panama. Mr.. Butman
gives some advice relative to the pack
ing of export goods and the manner of
conducting correspondence with Latin
American countries.
Considerable loss is caused annually
to the importer by careless packing and.
this is detrimental to the developmen1
of American trade. The Latin-Ameri-
can buyer weighs the satisfactory meth
of of packing and the long period ex-
tended for credit in European countries
against the faulty packing and short
time here.

PARIS, Sept. 1S.-Interest in tfH
hut Commander Peary's reiterat ed
charges have somewhat disconnected the
newspapers, which now are much more
inclined to suspend final judgment I'M
til proof is submitted. Some of the
papers treat the affair in a humorous
vein and ask whether it is not possible
that both are bluffing. They point out
especially that there is nothing in
Peary's recital inconsistent with, the
statement made by Cook and that Meth
er had a white man with him when he
claims he reached the pole.
In scientific articles intense regret is

Food Supply aad Consumption.

Our consumption of food products in this country has caught up with is production, says the great magnate James ]. Hill.

The other nations of the world have managed for thousands of wears to produce food enough for their dease populations, half of which has been wasted on great armies and assies and exfravasant systems of government. If the people of the world would eem- pel their governments 10 cease their wicked wastes there would be twice the amonnt of Eood needed, even nn- der present condition Of things.
