u. the expressions maze at the meet
me which called the new pastor, the
TSr- DR.. Cornelius Woelfkin, OF Ro-
chester, were. in favor Of minister IN
all things as far the opposite Of their
late pastor as could be imagined
The new pastor, who leaves tho
chair Of hOmiletics in Rochester sem
inary. is a theolOgian rather than a
rrlpfteer and much OF his fame rests
upOn his books 1t Is considered ike
" that he sacrifices the presidency OF
Rochester seminary in accepting
New York pastorate. The Rockefeller
church in New York belongs TO the lib
craI element IN Baptist thinking, both
IT, doctrine and in polity. There mas
been much talk of its sale and re

side bases hopes OF ultimate victory,

sense the warfare IS bitter. in a per-
sOnal one there seems to be excellent
feeling on both sides. At any rate,
expressions Of cordial respect, between

sfons and benevoIence continue in their
assertions. made a year ago and re-
Deated four or five months ago, that

women to give are greater than they
have been for wears They assert that
as much effort has now to be ex-
r,ended to raise $4,000 as formerly
brought in three or -FOUR times lnll
amount. In other words the expense
OF money raising for beneVOlence has
advanced along with the cost Of living.
There are men, the financiers Of wen
known Christian enterprises, who in
duce others TO give SI00, 600 TO 100000
a year. There are many more who
succeed IN getting in $4,000 to $4,000
a year. There has come TO be a pro-
fcssion of such men-there are no
women in II as yet But nearly all Of
them are away behind their records in
amounts secured, and the few that are
