No ught Tron MATTE! somin ony HALL OF HISTORY A Handsome Building for the Amer- iean University. GRANITE AND ROCK-FACED MARBLE Plans forthe New Structure Have Been Prepared. ITS FINE APPOINTMENTS -_ The plans and specifications of the first building in the proposed group to be erected by the trustees of the American University, the Hull of History, are now complete and ere being put into the hands of the con- tractors. This fine building is not to be cne of the more Important structures of the university, but is a department build- ing. It is the plan to have a series of col- leges built for the special work to be done in them. Several reasons combined to make the Hall of History the first to be erected. Bishop Hurst's well-known interest in tory may have had some influence; the gift of $100,000 worth of securities toward the endowment of this college also had its in fluegce. The nature of the work to be in- cluded was, however, the chief reason. This college is to cover the field of history as ordinarily understood, and also to in- clude special lines of history, as philosophy, the sciences, law, clvilization and others, so making it a foundation department for all lines of special investigation. The building is two and a half stories . the lewer story coming so far above ground as to be well lighted and ventilated. The b e of stone end the steps are to be €. The basement story will be of rock-faced marble, and the two upper stories of tool-dressed’ marble.

Commissioner Ross left yesterday after- noon for a short visit to his old home in Minois. me The Wooden Roof. Apropos of the objectionable roof now being put on the new post office building, it wili be interesting to note the provision made by the committee now engaged in revising the building regulations concern- ing fire-proof structures. The new regula- tion says: Buildings hereafter erected or increased in height, except churches, if exceeding a height of seventy-five feet to the square shell be constructed in a fire-proof man- ner, &8 Lerein named, to wit: All joists, beams, rafters, purlines, jack rafters, plates, studs, ties and arches shall be made of cast or wrought iron or other inco busible material, and covered with corr gated fron, sheet or cast fron, tin, copp zinc or other metal, or slate, stone, brick, cement, mortar or other incombustible ma- terial.

It was the annual meeting of the American New Church Sunday School A\ sociation, and was called to order by the president, Rev. H. Clinton Hay of Prov dence, R. I, The religious exercises were conducted by Rev. George Henry Dole. At the same time the board of home and foreign missions was holding a meeting in the pastor’s study, the principal business being the consideration of the board's re- port, which is to be presented at the gen- eral convention of the New Jerusalem, which commences tomorrow afternoon. ‘There was considerable business of in-* \térest before the Sunday school workers, coming up for the most part in the way of reports. Rev. Wm. H. Mayhew read the reports of the secretary and treasurer, both of which were adopted. Atinek on the Daily Papers. The report of the committee on library gave rise to considerable discussion. It re- ferred to a lst of books which has been prepared as suitable for children in the fields of religious literature; fiction and his- tory, and called attention to the importance of properly training the literary testes .of children, During the discussion Mr. F.

Hence, it cannot be expected to thrive either in bring- ing forward its own children, young and old, or in reaching and holding the chil- dren and their families in the neighbor- hood and outlying community. “Every pastor ought to be the supervisor of his own Sunday school; he ought to be qualified to lead, encourage and direct the flock in this great function of its life as a church of the Lord. “If a layman is the superintendent it should be with the distinct understanding on his part, and on the part of the pastor and people, that it is as an assistant shep- herd, helping to care for the lambs and sheep. ‘Feed my lambs,’ ‘feed my sheep’ is the Injunction of the ‘Lord to His apos- tle: we t results in the A Lesson From the Parables. At the afternoon session Rev. Mr. Wm. L. Wercester read an able paper on the theme, “A Lcsson From the Parables.” In his paper he recommended a kind of study for older classes in the Sunday school. The parable was assumed to apply not oniy to those immediately before the Lord as He spoke, but to all people in all time. The children represent the innocent things stored up in every one In childkood, keep- ing the soul open to the influences of heaven. Tne voice of the children calling to their fellows in the market represents the influence of heaven as it comes down into our life of natural, worldly interests. The message is of two kinds, represented by mourning and piping. The children mourn when the innocence within us feels pained by the evil of the ways into whicn we are falling, and heaven calls us through the voice of conscience to repent. If we re- spond to the mourning of the children by sincere repentance we ere prepared to en- ter with enjoyment into the exercise of good affections. The appeal of good affec- tions to be received by our hearts and ex- ercised in our lives is represented by the piping of ‘he children inviting their fellows to dance. This interpretation of the mourn- ing and ‘he piping is confirmed by the Lord's own application of the parable to the attitude of the Jews toward John the Baptist aid toward Him. John’s call to repentance was a cry of mourning. If they had resp».ded to It they would have been able to respord also to the Lord, who came offering to share the blessings of heavenly life. - Radinnt Energy.

Thus materialistic philosophers descend from highly organized forms to less ‘organized ones, and finally to unorganized matter, like a descent in the steps of a ladder, to le: and less adequate cause and at length to that which is least able to pro- duce the results we see around us. The New Church, on the other hand, by its philosophy, ascends through discrete degrees from effects to more and more in- terior causes, to the first cause, the Lord Himself, who is the origin of all living and dead forces. He communicates them through two suns, the spiritual and nat- ural, by means of three discrete degrees of atmospheres under each sun, and all the phenomena of gravitation, magnetism, molecular and chemical forces, also heat, light and all other forms of energy, are effects produced by vibrations produced by the sun in the three atmospheres.
