! At the Baptist church last night
Rev. G. w Chessman spoke ON The
subject, The Sin of the Saddncee.
He said
"ihe day of Jesus saw two domin.
ant parties in the Jewish theocratic
state-the Pharisees and the Saddu.
Gees. The Pharisees were the ultra.
conservatives, the sticllers for the
law and the tradition Of the elders
They made elaborate profession but.
as Jesus revealed, they were inward
ly corrupt. Their sin was hpyocricy.
"The Sadducees, on The other hand.
were the ultra-liberals the skeptics.
They disbelieyed in the resurrection,
the Immortality Of the soul and future
rewards and punishmens They dem.
onstrated no warmth or soul, had no
vital spiritual convictions and were
void of religious sentiment They
were cold propositions The sin of the
Sadducee was worldliness. He lived
for life's fat emoluments, for ambi-
tons and material rewards
Jesus portrays the sin of the Sad
ducee in the parable Of Dives and
Lazarus. Dives was a Grass wording.

wear sumptuous clothes. His social
life was made up Of fraternzing with
his kind He felt no social RESPONSE

table. A problem of charity never

Jesus portrays the sin in teach
ing on the rich fool This man was a
successful farmer who reaped such
enormous crops his old barns were too
small to hold them He tore down the
old barns and built larger ones Then
he said, Take thine ease, you've got
plenty now His was a self-centered
life and his mind was entirely alb
sorbed in property

ten strong cops to shake with sobS -

music Of Farewell. How Can I Bear TO
Leave Thee" the last shovelful of coal
on hand at the Sixty-frst and Thompson
street station house was thrown on the
furnace fire at 1890 o'clock last night.
Today the station is as cold as charity
and nobody is able to say whether it
will get warmer before 1t gets colder
or whether It will keep on this way and
then get worse.
When the fall season opened the sta
ton had on hand only leftover sup
ply of coal from last winter. All efforts
70 get n fresh lot were of no avail and
day by day the policemen watched their
little hoard of fuel grow steadily ana
uncomfortably smaller. Last night Turn
key Joe McCurry notified the men on
duty that the end had come. Solemnly
and silently the guardians of the peace
filed down to the cellar and with bowed
heads and heaving bosoms witnessed the
last sad rites over the last sad shovelfui
and sang a dirge of farewell.
A jarring note in the dirge was struck
by former Turnkey Alex Smith. who for
many years has been stationed at the
Slxty-flrst and Thompson street station,
but who recently was transferred To n
new station at Peach and Media streets.
The transfer took effect at midnight last
night, but Smith didn't walt that long.
AS he heard his comrades singing How
Can Bear to Leave Thee" he gathered
up his belongings and rountered with
where DO We Go From Hers, Boys?'
