SAN FRANCISCO. April 26.-I am
going to write you a few words to de-
scribe some OF my impressions Of the
exposition. The first thing that strikes
me is its immensity, in toto. and the
next the vast extent and minuteness
of interesting detail In every feature.
II is difficult for me to go out for a
bit Of lunch at noon time and get
back in any sort Of reasonable time on
account Of the compelling attraction
which catches the attention at al
most every rod Of my route. On en-
tering at the main or "Scott street
entrance the first thing a lover for
flowers and who is not? will probably
notice is great beds Of yellow tulips
and pansies. There are acres of
them. surrounding great fountain bas-
ins and bordering the wide avenues.
| suppose the color has been chosen
to emblemise the golden state Of Cal
ifornia Both the tulips and pansies
are in perfect bloom but Of course the
former, at any rate, will not last very
long. / presume they will be replac-
ed by something else before they get
to looking very ragged. The prevail
ing color Of the whole exposition is
shade of yellow. The plastic ma
terial from which most of the build
/ ings are constructed, has evidently
been colored when it was mixed and
| then when the parts were moulded
or spread on the forms the places
completely shows few shades dark
er and that gives a sort of notified ap-
pearance that is entirely without reg
ularity or des gn, but adds TO the
1 pleasing effect Then, to add to the
color effect, and maintain the har-
mony of the scheme, most Of the
driveways and many of the foot
paths are thlckly strewn with clean
yellow sand which is about the shade
Of the buildings.
Artificial means of locomotion for
visitors at hand are numerous and
some of them novel. First of course
is the familiar wheeled chair both
single and double, which is propelled
by man or boy Then there is a
sort of chair or go-cart which seats
two, or on a pinch three, which is
driven, l think by electricity. 1t has
very slow speed and seems safe for
anybody. / see children and old la
dies driving them and they roll nois-
4 lagcI., hlt nf nh a
pace of a slow stroll. They are fine
for any weakly person who can af-
ford to use them. Then there is a
modification of the common whee
chair in which the driver, or rather
"pusher' is mounted on bicycle
frame and works pedals. Then there
are a lot Of trains of rather slowl!
moving, rubber-tired wheeled, little
cars, with seats running lengthwist
and set back to back. which are
drawn by little automobile" loco
motives, There is a driver and a con.
ductOr and l am not quite sure wheth.
er the latter acts as the barker OIL
whether there is a separate man who
answers questions and describes fea'
lures. And lastly there is the minia
ture railway, which traverses the
whole length Of the water front. Thi;
is the same sort of a railway as is in
use in a great many amusement parks
The track gauge is about 16 or Ii
inches and the cars are open and sea-

PORTLAND, ore April 26.-Fire
which for a period threatened to de.
velop into a disastrous waterfront
conflagration, swept a portion of the
plant OF the Albers Brothers Milling
Company on the west riverfront. be.
tween Loveioy and Marshall streets
at 4:40 O'Clock yesterday morning
resulting in loss estimated at $40.

not known.
In an hours efficient fighting in
heavy smoke which threatened rep
etition OF the scenes attendant at the
Blake McFall fire the Sunday before
when 80 firemen were overcome, the
mep Of II engine companies, in CO.
operation with two fire bloats, gained
control OF the blaze.
Water plays on Stock.
The fire started near the washroom
on the third floor OF Albers Dock No.
?, in frame structure adjoining the
mill. Iron doors between the wood.
en- structure and the main brick
building prevented much damage, al.
though the fire finally broke through
making 1t necessary to play streams oi

responded we're the two fireboats

soul and its deeper and eternal wants;
with the church and its infinite needs.
Watehfu1ness Of Christ.
/. The watchfulness Of the risen
Christ. Before He was constantly
keeping watch above His own" He
said; 4 am the good shepherd. The
shepherd knOweth his sheep by name
They hear his voice and follow him"
81, now, he looks down on his flock and
marks each sheep and lamb with more
than a shepherds eye. The glory, the
abundance, the blessedness which sur
round him in his eXaltatiOn, do not
make him the least unwatchful. The
strong temptation and tendency with
mortal man, who, by some stroke of
fortune, as We say, is exalted to a high
position, is to forget or ignore, the
less fortunate brother. But with Him
who, through death, was exalted TO
the throne on high and given name
above every name the poverty and
hunger, the nakedness ana cold of his
scattered flock below are not forgot
ten
The want of one meal for the body
v as observed by Him that morning in
Galilee. And We may be sure He marks
the want Of sustenance, whether OF
soul OF body, in the lives OF the least
OF His brethren"
Notices Every Want
Poor child Of God, you never lacked
a meal but Jesus noticed il and asked
the question on purpose to supply the
want My child, have you any meat?'
he asks the same question as he notes
your spiritual hunger. And He watches
the hunger and thirst Of His church
on earth. and is ever putting the
question TO each congregation, Have
We any meat?" Nothing escapes His
eye To every soul and to every
church He seems to say I know thy
hunger. thy thirst, thy WEAKNESS, thy
weakness, thy signs and tears"
The Pity Of Christ.
.. The pity OF the risen Christ"
We know something of that pity when
Jesus was here among men" We
know how He had compassion on the
improvident souls Of earth. Il have
compassion on the multitudes," He said
on one occasion. because they have
continued with me for three days and
have nothing TO eat No, the throne
above has not lesseued in the slightest
degree the divine pity of our Lord. he
pities the hunger and leanness Of the
church. He pities the hunger and lean
ness Of every prOfessed follower. Sur

Text. John 21.5. ~chndren. have

Text; John Fl 3. "Children, have
ye any meats'
1.-THE question clearly sets forth the
tender love Of the risen Christ
= After his resurrection the Lord
appeared on a number Of occasions
AS the apostle Paul tells US: He was
seen Of Cephas. then Of the twelve;
after that He was seen Of above 500
brethren at once. After that, He was
seen Of James; then OF all the apOs-
ties. and last Of all, He was seen Of
me also"
In all these appearances we behold
the same tender, loving, sympathizing
Savior and Lord. Truly. we may say.
He is the same yesterday, today and
forever" Cross anu grave did not
quench His love. His resurrection did
not cause Him to forget His disciples,
or to raise him above sympathy with
them.
Standing there on the shores Of Cali
lee, in the early gray Of the morning,
Jesus calls out to the little group OF
discouraged fishermen, who had tolled
all night and taken nothing, and in
quires: Have you taken any fishE
he is interested in their bodily needs.
and hunger just as He had before
when He was with them almost daily.
II fact the higher He rose the more
perfect were His sympathies. He who
could hunger no more, neither thirst
any more, was all the more keenly
alive to the sufferings and privations
o. His brethren.
Speaks as Man and Friend.
Jesus did not need TO ask Have
We any meatg' He knew they had no
meat. But He wishes to speak 70 them
as a man, as a friend interested in
their welfare This seems to be His
method Of approach, following the res
direction Il was so when he ap-
peared to Mary in the garden, when
she took him to be the gardener. It
was so when He overlook the two men
alking to Emmaus and appeared 70
them as a mere stranger. In all these
cases he awakens confidence, as a
stranger, an unknown friend. and then
ere men are aware, the stranger garb
is dropped and Jesus, the master. IS
revealed What blessed surprises dur
ing those rUrty daysi Man all over in
everything but sin, both before and
after His resurrection.
The question Of the text indicates
the watchfulness, pity and bounty Of
the risen Lord And while these were
displayed in connection with the bodily
needs OF men, none the less are they

Let US look TO Him and trust Him in
every hour OF want
Bounty OF the Risen Christ.
3. But let US think also of the
bounty Of the risen Christ" His IS
no empty pity His is no shallow,
supply all our legitimate needs, so that
We can say. with the psalmist. The
Lord is my shepherd, shall not want"
he will do for US exceedingly abund-
think" The risen lord does not say
merely: Be ye warmed and filled. He
at once opens mis- treasure house and
supplies US, as Joseph supplied his
brethren. His stores are boundless-
He has enough and to spare.
He delights to pour out His bounty.
Prove me now, herewith, saith the
Lord and see IL 1 will not open the
windows Of heaven and pour you out
a blessing that ye cannot contain"
As He led the 5000, and as He filled
the disciples nets with fishes and pre-
pared meal for them with mis- own
hands, so He opens His hands and
supplies every want" He replenishes
the churches basker and store. He
fills the cruise and meal barrel Of mis-
widowed church in the day Of famine.
And this is His voice to her zOW.
his voice in every age, His voice in
these last days. Children, have ye
any meat3" and, alas, alas many a
soul, many a church must answer, No.
Because Of discOuragementi because Of
a lack Of trust; because Of our inter
est in other things; riches and the
cares Of this life, we have taken
nothing" OF the good things that the
Lord hath prepared for them that love
and trust Him.
We are famishing; our spiritual
meals are scanty; we are lean and
hungry in soul II this is our answer
and confession to the Lords earnest
inquiry then, I say TO you, he will
come and prepare a table before you"
he Will spread a table for you in the
wilderness He viii feed you with
the finest Of His wheat He will give
YOU His own flesh to eat" and His
flesh is meat indeed" Such is His
tender Tove. His infinite bounty.
Lowest Thou Me-
Just this closing word After that
wonderful experience, when the risen
Christ and His friends had Toasted
out there on the shores of Galilee. the
Master asks another question It is
this; Lowest thou Ne" And, as
Simon Peter and the rest earnestly and
emphatically declared their love, can
we likewise say today, Lord, thou
knowest that we love Thee" This is
the question He is asking US today.
This is the fundamental question. Pro-
fessiOn and service without love are
as nothing Let this be our prayer:
More love, o. Christ to Thee
