The Congregational parsonage and
chapel are next to the burned struc-

for the active work of the firemen.
When the department arrived on the
scene, both the Smith and Parker
barns were burning briskly and there
was every reason to believe that they
would be totally destroyed and other
property catch from sparks but two
streams were played in the burning
mass and the damage curtailed
In the Dill barn was carriage and

insurance was carried by Mrs. Parker
on her property but the Smith place is

Rev. Lathrop Makes Address.

/ The commencement address was
made by DR.. A. H. Lathrop, pastor
I of Trinity church He said in part:
THE modern hospital is a recog-
nized by-product OF christianity, but
it is as much a result of its program
of work and self help as of the al
truistic principle of Others help
which christianity diffuses through
society
1--WE should not allow our work to
| fall into the course Of routine but
rather seek to do our best and be our
own stern judge in accomplishing the
best results. Jesus was trained
:, worker, it taking thirty years for him
to prepare himself. He knew the
! value of the trained worker in every
/ line OF human activity and carefully
i trained his disciples before sending
4 them out.
"As first plank in Gods plan per-
/ lection is the Divine ideal for man;
nothing less. The Bible says: BE We
j perfect as your heavenly father IS
perfect" Science says: Nature has
climax; a supreme development.
/ Evolution is as insistent on perfection
as a final goal for nature as revela-
/ ton is for man. And this bright an.
| ticipation is not only world affair
and strength and achievement but it
| is the ideal for each Individual of all
4 types and kingdoms in the world
The principle of mans growth and
development is cooperation with God.
To put it more tersely, Drawn sweat
and brain sweat are Gods works and
man must work In harmony with him
to realize himself Idleness, inertness,
4 inactivity is the prescription of God
1 and nature for decay and death.
Suppose the miracle age had con-
tinued; that God had worked only for
man and man had stood spectator
= in open-eyed wonder at the works of
! God till now. Suppose the divine
work of healing had never been layed
! on man to do. Think you that medi-
cine and surgery would have deveL
oped wonderfully as they have today
or would have developed at all? Think
you that hospitals would grace our
cities and civilization as they do to-
day? I tell you nay! There would
! be none OF 1t and man instead of being
the wonder works that he Is would be
the simple child Of nature.
Already man with mortar and
pestle and scalpel works like God
4 Already human hands of the trained
nurse rival the hands of the master
himself in gentle cunning and merci-
full ministry to the sick and suffering
I as they go about doing good.
BE brave and true in troubles that
test and in limitations that perplex
and the circle of your attainment and
efficiency will widen with the years.
The good will Of both God and man
4 will crown you for your works sake
with the halo of sweet success that
will endure forever"

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK MARKET LlSTLESS. rradino Was Narrow-Crop Conditions
 Have Noticeable Effect.

New York, Aug. 4.-The course of today's narrow and listless stock mar ket was governed to an unusual de- gree by crop conditions. Authoritative advices received over Sunday pointed to little relief from the protracted drouth in the west and southwest and found immediate reflection in further smart advances for corn options at leading markets.
 More thorough analysis of the corn deterioration, however. shows that 1t Is greatest in states that have large supplies of the cereal left over from last year. Then, too, in Missouri, where the latest official report places the corn condition at IS against 86 month ago, all reliable signs indicate wheat crop exceeding all expectations.
 Money for moving grain is in active demand, especially at southwestern points, and merchants are borrowing heavily although banks are reducing loans to actual requirements.
 Initial trading in stocks here, again lacking foreign influence by reason of Londons' protracted holiday, was marked by dullness to the point of ab- solute inertia. Leading issues showed a declining tendency. In the final hour of the day, when occasional spurts of activity were witnessed, the market made full recovery, and in many in stances rose a point or more rom last weeks final figures. Exceptions to this reversal were found in the shares of the express companies, which were lower on rate reductions ordered by the interstate commerce commission, and in Mexican National Railway sec ond preferred, which weakened on sus- pension of dividends for the first pre- ferred stock.
 Local money conditions were slightly more firm, 90 day securities stiffening on increased demand.
 The bond market was irregular, with no noteworthy changes. Government bonds were unchanged on call. Total sales, par value, were $1, III, 900.
