full military honors. Soldiers and
sailors and high officials of the city

who was killed at Vera Cruz is laid
to rest in WaIdheim cemetery.
100000 jammed the streets yester-
day when the body arrived at the La
Sale street station and was born to
the City Hall. Many were hurt in this
mighty throng around the City Hall
while Sammy lay there-the first
man to lie in state in the new city

while crossing from the American to
Mexican lines, that they may aid their
coUntrynen against the common en-
eny-the gringo.
Under the pTetense Of visiting rela-
tives in the Mexican camp outside the
city, many women have been permit
ted to pass out of the city in their car
riages and to return. They had not
been molested until a suspicion of
their purpose reached U. S. head
quarters.
Gen. Funston is putting a stop to
this! He is closing the city. 1t is be-
ing said that United States secret
service men from the treasury depart
ment were sent to Mexico to help him.
If Gen. Mas does decide to attack
Vera Cruz he will know the weak
spots in the defense, where he can
capture the stores of ammunition and
the quickest way to destroy food and
provisions.
And it will be the work of women
if he succeeds! The United States ar
my will have been defeated by Mexi-
women!

WISCONSIN NAN
WAS PREACHER
SERVICES AT FIRST PRESBYTERI-
AN CHURCH WE'RE PREACHED
BY REV. GERRITT VERkUYL OF
APPLETON, WIs.-BoTH INTER-
EsTING SERMONS.

DR.. Gerritt VerkuyI's subject at the
morning service was The Righteous
ness of God, and in it he answered
many Of the questions which rise as
to Affections Of mankind and why God
should permit his creatures to suffer.
He took for his scripture lesson the
familiar passage in Genesis in which
Abraham is visited in his tent by the
three heavenly visitors during which
the patriarch talks with God and
makes intercession for Sodom. and the
sermon was a powerful refutation of
many Of the arguments that God Wis
it's the people of the earth with afflic-
ton. On the contrary, man himself
by violation Of the natural laws brings
upon himself the affections which he
suffers.
The masses of India suffer famine
while countless acres of bountiful land
in the country go uncultivated. The
axe and the saw have devastated our
hills of their forest coverings, all re-
straint is removed from the flood
sources and man, who has builded his
cities in the lowlands contrary to wis
dom and healthful living is flooded out
when the waters rise. Is God to blame?
Similar instances, simple n con-
vincing, punctuated the sermon.
In the evening Mr.. Verkuyl preach
ed on Arrows, taking for his text that
verse in Psalm 127 referring to chill
dren as arrows. The sermon partook
largely of the nature Of a Sunday
school talk and was deeply interest
ing. In it the speaker enlarged upon
the significance which a live and ac-
tive Sunday school has for the church
and the necessity for careful training
of the young that the gap between the
churchgoer of today and that Of to-
morrow may be bridged by those who
have received religious training in the
Sunday school.
Mr.. Verkuyl is n of the expert
Sunday school workers employed by
the Presbyterian board and has been
phenomenally successful in his work.
Coming to this country from Holland
as an Immigrant he began work as a
ditcher, got a foothold and worked his
way through the grade schools and
later through Princeton, graduating
with honors. He Immediately took up
| home mission work and his success
attracted the attention of the Sunday
school board. resulting his being plac-
ed in charge of that work in Wiscon-
| sin and part of Minnesota.
While here DR.. Verkuyl was enter
tanned at the home of Rev. DIR. w. I'll.
Hunter, and also at the home of a.. M
Baker, the latter an old time Wiscon-
| sin friend

tials. Beside the number of private
individuals who thus aided us in this
work we are indebted to five of the
churches, two young peoples socie-
ties al n fraternal order that we
