TEN HIGH-PRESSURE LINES
FAIL TO CHECK BIG BLAZE.
Three Fireboats and Many En-
gineS Also Futile.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Fire starting
in an old four-story brick building at
1S5 South street, which saw service
during the days of the Revolution, got
the better of ten high-pressure sys-
tenn lines of hose. three fireboats and
more than q dozen fire engines this
morning, and for a time not only
threatened all the buildings on the
block, but hurled sparks on the prom
enade of Brooklyn bridge until 1iremen
were sent there to stamp them out.
Until this ramshackle old house
showed what fires really could do in its
kind the high-pressure hose have mas
tered every blaze in the district in
short order.

This case appears to me to be an

DUTY OF CHURCH TO SICK
Many Pastors Favor Proposal to
Anoint Them.

Several of the city's pastors preached
yesterday on the proposal made at the re
cent General Convention of the Episcopal
Church, in Cincinnati, for amounting the
sick with oil. The consensus of opinion
was that anointment should be administered
as spiritual support, much as prayer is now
The Rev. DR.. L. w. Batten. from the pull
pit of st. Marks Church, said:
THE amounting would be merely sym
bolsm, similar TO the use of water in hap
tism. 1t is important principally as show
ing that the Church is realizing she has
duty to the sick, the duty of helping
them to get we'll Whether anointment and
prayer have any effect is largely a matter
of opinion.
The Rev DR.. Frank Oliver Hall. at the
Church of the Divine Paternity gave as his
text the well known passage from the fifth
q apter of James: IF there be any sick
among you. let him call for the elders of
the church: and let them pray over him.
amounting him with oil in the name IF the
Lord He then proceeded: The man who
w1ote that text is dead, and so are the
people to whom it was addressed-every
one of them Many, presumably. followed
the injunction to the Ietter-and yet they
are dead. Are we then to regard the text
simply as the expression of an outgrown
superstition?
Praying over the sick is as old as hui
mainly. The most agonizing of prayers
have been uttered beside innumerable sick
beds. by parent or child, perhaps, and yet
have proved unavailing.
MANY persons are sick in mind because
they first sick in body, but there are
many who are sick in body because they
are first sick in mind. For such, the best
of all treatment is prayer@the prayer Of

WANTS SPEED LIMIT FIXED
McAdoo Says Magistrates Find
Existing Law Unsatisfactory.

Chief CITY Magistrate McAdoo sitting in

This ordinance was passed I'm the days
Of the bicycle craze, and il refers TO veloci-
pedes and motor vehicles the chief mag
istrate said. 1T seems 10 me that the
ordinance does not meet the requirements
of the present day: nevertheless. as the
Callan law omits all reference to the rate
al which motor vehicles should be pro-
pelleG. the magistrate has had to fall back
on the old ordinance. which limits the
speed OF motor vehicles TO eight miles an
hour in the built UP sections Of the city
and fifteen miles where the houses are
wide apart"
He SAID that the magistrates as a body
were dissatisfied with this procedure, and
that he intended to go to Albany and ascer-
tain if the Legislature intended that the
speed limit should Re omitted from the

HOW TO DIVIDE EARNINGS
Rockefeller Bible Glass Member
Challenges Speakers Figures.

The members of the Rockefeller Bible
Class of the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church
were warned yesterday that if they spent
more than one-ffth of their incomes for
rent they were guilty of improvidence.
The young men were advised to divide
their total earnings as follows: One-fifth
part for shelter one-fifth part for food. one
fifth for clothing. recreation and self-im-
provement: one-fifth for emergencies, such
as doctors bills, drugs, etc, and the re-
naming one-ffth should be set aside for
profitable investments.
The speaker was the Rev. DR.. Addison
Moore, leader of the class. He said: 1T is
CT stomary for US 10 exclaim, If l had
more money / should be happy II we live
right we ought to be happy. anyway. even
with the money we have" DR. Moore then
went on TO advise the class how 10 divide
an income so as to be happy. stating the
figures mentioned above.
4 member of the class said: THAT kind
OF figuring is all very well in theory. Dr..
Moore: but, believe me- il does not work
out at all successfully in actual practice.
1t is all right to talk about limiting ones
outlay for food TO one-fifth of ones income;
but how about a man with small salary
and five or six children to support? Do
you think he can live up to those figures?
Dc you think he has any chance to lay
aside one-fffth of his income for profitable
investments?'
There are exceptions to every rule. of
course replied DR. Moore, evidently some
what taken aback by this challenge. Per
haps man with a large family cannot
be accused of impToyidence if ne does not

NEED Of NEW Church
DR.. Holmes Thinks Catholicism
and Professionalism Are Dying.

At the morning service at the Church of
the Messiah Park avenue and 34th street
yesterday morning, the Rev. John Haynes
Holmes spoke on the subject of Dead
Catholicism and Dying Professionalism
The sermon was called out by the recent
sermons OF Father Vaughan and Dr.
Charles T. Aked.
The real test of the validity of an in
stitution,'' said Mr.. Holmes, lis not that
of number. but of the influence which it
exerts upon the controlling forces of human
life. Judged by this test, Catholicism is
hopelessly dead. 1t once controlled the
destinies of our whole civilization. To-
day it controls nothing. Father Vaughan g
claim, therefore. as TO its being the world
religion of the future is simply ridiculous
No less ridiculous. however, are Mr.. Aked's
claims for Professionalism. If Catholicism
is already dead, ii is no less true that
Professionalism is dying-dying very fast.
Religion is an infinitely greater thing
than either Catholicism or Professionalism.
It will endure long after both have dis
appeared entirely. At this very moment
we are witnessing the death of Catholicism
and the passing of Professionalism; we are
Witnessing also the birth of new religion,
which has two characteristics. 1t is first
a religion of the spirit, founded upon the
authority not of a church or a book, but
upon the soul itself In the second place,
il is a religion which seeks to express
itself not in obedience 10 an institution
nor in a belief in a creed, but in the ser
vice of human need The old churches
both Catholic and Protestant-are dead or
dying because they are not big enough
70 contain this new religion. We need a
new church to-day-a church which shall
be devoted TO truth and not to tradition,
which shall be moved by a spirit of free
dom and not of authority and which shall
he dedicated to justice and not to charity"
