Breckinridge of Ky.] ———+e+—_ There Are No Infants in Hell. In Monday's debate by the New York pres- bytery on the proposed revision of the West- minster confession of faith Rev. Drs, Crosby and Van Dyke both spoke against the doctrine of reprobation, Rev. Dr. Van Dyke began one of the most striking speeches of the entire dis- cussion with Dr. Paxton’s parable about the dog which had “eat his tag” for his text. He said: “The Westminster confession a8 it now stands affixes a tag to the human race to this effect: ‘Part is consigned to Heaven and part to hell and no man can find out to which part he apes nor would it make any difference if he could.” Now, if I were an expressman I would refuse to forward a tagless dog; so I Irefuse to believe this unintelligible, impos- sible dogma, and yet my refusal mukes no for revision, Now, what is the revision to be? I am in favor of the committee’s report because it elim- inates reprobation from the confession and suggests the formation of a new creed more scriptural than the confession as a basis of union with other reformed churches, The first, the elimination of reprobation, should be done as soon as possi- ble, if not sooner, We want to get rid of repro- bation because it is superfiuor d not essen- tial even to Culvinisu, as it is not contained in any Calvinistic creed except our own and the Irish articles, formulated in 1615 only to fall into innocuous desuetude in 1635. Ante natal | damnation! No man ever died for that doc- trine. Why, then, should any one clasp it to his bosom and weep tears at the thought of | losing it, as if it had been bathed in the blood of martyrs? Such a position is like that of the old woman who said: ‘There's that blessed doc- trine of universal depravity. What a comfort it is if we only lived up to it! The Heavenly Father spreads a feast for all; is it for us to say that He refuses to let the poor sinner eat of the crumbs which fall from His table? And for what reason? To satisfy our logic? It is but measuring the mind of the Almighty with the wisdom of the seventeenth century, The doctrine is unscriptural As for the text about the potter, who ever heard of a potter making s vessel merely to destroy it? The doctrine of ante natal perdition makes the Bible a mass of contradictions. It is un- evangelical, It is in alliance today with the | anti-Christian forces of modern thought. We must be driven into pantheism and materialism unless we stand fast and say, ‘Our wills are ours.’ Reprobation is a ‘horrible’ doctrine. The adjective is not mine, but Calvin's, who pushed it to its logical conclusion and taught the damnation of infants. I don't weep for the tears shed over the destruction of part of the confession, but for the tears of the mothers who have been taught to believe that their harmless, new-born babes were torn from their breasts to be plunged into everlasting perdition; I weep for the unhappy creatures in mad houses whose light of reason has been pat out by the heresy of ante natal perdition.” In conclusion Dr. Van Dyke said: “I know not what others may do, but, as for me, I intend to keep on disbe- lieving, ignoring, and- denying the doctrine of reprobation. I intend to teach that there are no infants in hell, no limits to God’s love; that there is salvation open to all mankind, and that ‘anished but for his ownsin. Is that Before God, I don't know or care! It is Christianity!” 5 eee Lounsbery’s Bondsmen Silent. ‘The bondsmen of the suicide, Geo, H. Louns- ‘The agitation looking toward the formation of a naval reserve or a naval militia in the Dis- trict took a definite shape the other day when Representative Grout introduced, by request, a bill entitled “‘A bill to provide for s aval reserve battalion’ in the District of Co- lumbia.” This proposed measure provides that in addition to the companies of volunteer militia now authorized in the District there may be organized not more than four companies of naval militia, which shall consti- tute a battalion to be known as the naval Feserve battalion of the national guard of the District of Columbia, The officers are to con- sist of one commodore, and a staff to consist of one adjutant, with the rank of lieutenant com- meander; one Lge frye snd ove surgeon, each with the rank of licutenant; and the following petty officers: One master-at-arms, one yeo- man, one apothecary, and one chief bugler. The company organization is to consist of one Hentenant, one junior lieutenant, two en: and not leas than two nor more than six crews, each of not more than 16 officers and men. Under such an organization the entire bat- talion would consist of 88 men, 20 in each com- pany and 8 on the staff. In addition to theap Officers it is provided that the Secretary of the Navy may assign an officer of the navy to act as adjutant of the battalion, which shall also be provided with the necessary ordnance and ccdaanes stores, clothing, equipage, and sup- plies, Besides the adjutant the Secretary of the Navy is to provide, as far ae he may deem expedient, facilities for the practical instruc- tion of the battalion, and detail the proper commissioned and petty officers to assist the adjutant in the work. CO-OPERATION OF NAVAL OFFICERS. This measure is approved both by militia- men and.by naval officers as a move in the right direction. Said an officer on duty at the department to a Star reporter: “Under this bill the proposed naval reserve will be an adjunct of the District national guard, Gen. Ordway is ite earnest promoter andthe Navy department may be counted upon to sympathize fully with the movement. There is slso anumber of naval officers and ex-officers zealously interested in the project. There is every reason why the District should have an efficient protection of this sort—a re- serve corps that shall be a model to ali others, Here, under the of the Navy department, in a city where there isso much good material to draw from, it should be an easy matter to this a shining success,” SAFELY THROUGH THE SENATE.

AS VIEWED FROM THE BOX, Row Society ts Criticisea by the Coach- man. ulian “Dis hyar ‘siety makes me sick,” said a driver of a well-known society coupe to a Sran reporter a few nights ago, ‘an’ when my work is done I thanks de good Lord dat I'm black and ain't one of 'em.” “Why, what's your objection?” asked the scribe as he climbed up on the box beside him. ‘I don’ know as I kin ‘zactly figurate, it’s all "jectien. Hyar I has been a driber dese thirtty yars and durin’ dat period I bas 'served de ’aiety people mos’ 'ticularly, Dey ain't no good, ad’ ef bluster an’ ‘put on’ was what tuk folks to hebben, man, de ‘siety people would all be dar. Now we men out hyar on de box ain't ‘sposed to hear nothin’, but ef I was one of dese hyar short-arm writers and could ketch some of de conversation dat I hears it would *stoniwh you.” “Can't you give me an idea of what you asked the reporter, To do dat I don’ know whar to commence, Sides, do you recken it would pe yer?” Being assured that it would, he continued. “Dese hyar ‘ceptions is de places whar peo- ple gits talked "bout more’n anywhar else. To give you an idee, J was a dribin’ my folks awa; from s big tea (I thinks date what dey call "em) one of dem pretty days last week and de top* of de carriage was shoved back an’ I could hyar ebery thing that was said. Well, sir, fust dey tuk dis pusson and ‘scribed her dress and told some bad stories as dey had heered ‘bout ber, den efter dat anoder was pees up, ang so on till we hauled up fore a ig house on EK street. I tell yer it was skandelus de way dey talked about de pore women. But de men got it just as bad, cause dey seemed to know al "bout ‘em, Glory, how I wish for de goon old days befo’ de war. 1 was o dribin’ in hyar very city, but de people was different dem days. Yes, dere was a pow'ful defference,” continued the driver meditatively. ‘Seems ta me de people was better anyho dey didn’t puton no ‘aoe or nothin’ an’ dey didn’t talk #nd deframe dere fren’s. ‘Sides dey warn't a ruuning ebery cay an’ night to see folks dey dido’t care nothin’ "bout. It was kinder nice to work dem days, but Lord sabe yer honey, hyar comes de folks!” So straightening him- self and taking afresh hold on the rains the driver looked as sober and sedate as a judge.
