A Standpat Prayer.

0, Lord, thou hast seer fit to
smite US in thy wrath! Thou hast
humbled us and we lie prone in the
dust of Thy displeasure! The
hosts of the enemy have bate red
down our walls, are possessed of
great spoil from our strong places,
and r shouting their unholy
paans of victory! Why this hath
come to pass through Thy wis
dom we know not, except it be to
cast down the pride of him who
made our house to sever in twain
and cast its ruins round about. But
we perish with him, even as did
the afore-time standpatters with
Sampson in the downcoming of
the temple. Thou knowest the
wicked in our house have wrought
this great evil, and upon them be
Thy hand heavy in it's judgment!
Teach them the error OF their way,
and by Thy correction return them
repentant to the fold. But the un-
holy Canaanites, exulting in the
destruction of the temple with bon
fires, brass bands, the firing Of
great guns, and long PROFESSIONS,
spare them not-they nor their
children unto the tenth g%enerationl
Break Thou their banks, destroy
their crops, and let their dinner
pals be unfurnishedi Shall the
sun shine, the grass grow, and the
rain fall upon the fields OF our
enemiesp Our faith forbids it, and
herein lies our hope for resurrec-

Baptist Bible.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13.-What
is regarded as probably the most
radical version of the Bible has
been placed on sale here at the
American Baptist Publication So
ciety rooms. 1t is a Baptist Bible,
for Baptists only and is so startling
in some of its translations that
much of the old text has been en-
tirely changed.
According to the scholars of the
Baptist Church, who have devoted
30 years to its preparation, it is un-
compromisingly faithful in its
TRANSACTIONS from the original.
For example, in that portion of
the New Testament where the con-
version of the Savior is de-
scribed, in place of being the
Greek "Baptize," the literal trans
lation of 'timmerse" is used so as
to conform with the Baptist teach
ings that Christ went down into
the water for His baptism.
All the archaic forms of the
King James and revised versions
have been completely eliminated,
and little of the old-fashioned re-
spect for generally accepted
theological views and ecclesiasti-
cal teachings remains.
The new Bible is called the sim.
proved version"

Privilege was not ended with the
