 Mayor Paoncssa dismissed an in quiry along this line with a short, T don't know anything about it." and Chairman George R. Dobson of the board of public works gave a similar answer with a note of finali= ty which did not invite further questioning.
 For several days, persons con- sidercd to be lon the inside of ad- ministration doings have been awaiting announcements concern ing the street superintendency. The consensus in city hall today was that this will be Faselle's last week in the city employ.

However, you can go and bet on
the idea that any club playing 1893
baseball through five weeks of a
major league race is due to lose a
few ball games, starting soon and
ending somewhat later. If the
Philadelphia bali club is to have its
inevitable slump now, so much the
worse for it and the better for
league interest. 1t will mean that
race has been made out of a
pageant.
No particular harm will be done
anybody. The Athletics will win

happens. the Bronx can then GO

BY WILLIAM E. GILROY. D. D.

BY WILLIAM E. GILROY. D. D.
Editor of The Congregationalist
1T is difficult to deal with the Book
I of Daniel without making some
reference to the careful and
scholarly study Of the book in re-
cent years which has resulted in a
somewhat different conception Of
it from that of a generation ago.
At that time the Book of Daniel
was regarded as an authentic his
torical narrative, and there was a
tendency to regard the teachings
Of the book as dependent upon the
acceptance of the story as literal
history. Today the prevailing view
in almost all outstanding centers OF
Biblical study regards the Book OF
Daniel as an NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Of the same general type of litera-
ture as the Book of Revelation in
the New Testament.
Broadly speaking, it seems I'M
doubted that the book was writ
ten long after the events described
could have happened historically,
and the book came out Of period
of persecution very much like that
out of which the Book of REVEAL
ton came a little later. 1t was one
of the latest to be admitted to the
canon of the Old Testament.
From the standpoint of its spir-
itual teachings the Interpretation
of the book is not greatly affected
by the view Of it which one feels
must be taken. One might Just as
readily refuse to see spiritual truth
in the parallels Of Jesus or in the
Book of Revelation itself as refuse
to regard the Book Of Daniel as
valuable in its religious teachings
because it happened to be an apoc-
alypse rather than a piece Of lit
eral history.
The dominant theme of the book
is emphasized in the title Of this
lesson. 1t is the character and
career of Daniel illustrating the life
Of the man of firm purpose and in
tegrity of faith whose character can
not be overwhelmed by outward cir
cumstnaces of comfort or prefer
ment, but who stands by the things
in which he believes, regardless OF
outward consequence or result. Here,
in an age of trial for the faith
full under conditions of bitter per-
secution, is the conception Of a
young man and his companions OF
unblemished character, we'll dis
ciplined and able in the things that
pertain to life-men in whom good
