Science Continuing to knook the underpin- ning away from the Temple of Evolu- tion, Rev. N. H. Harriman, pastor of the People’s church on Court street, dellvered his third address last even- ing in his series of attacks against the sclentific theary that some force other than a divine force was Te- sponsible for animate and inanimate life on Earth and throughout the universe. Mr. Harriman went merrily about his task of confounding the evolutionists by their own words and destroyed their case in court long be- fore offering his own witnesses. He showed how the case of the evolu- tionists is disproved by their own testimony and that the case of the Bible is entitled to the verdict of all thinking men and women. The following is an abstract of Mr. Harriman’s address: “It should be a matter of some in- terest, to know how the evolution trick has been turned: how a theory without scientific foundation, and posing as. ‘science’, could have swept off their feet so many learned men, and thrown discredit upon the Bible, and contaminated sacred learning. and well-nigh dominated the thought of the world for three generatjons—— that surely is some subject. And that I have set myaclf to answer tonight. “And as hitherto, I will take a text from this much-assalled old book, and you will see that it is pertinent: ‘O Timothy, keep that which is com- mitted to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of sclence falsely so-calle which some professing have erred concern- (1 Timothy 6:20, 21) seen that evalution s ‘sclence falsely so-called.” We have marked the ‘Profane and vain bab- blings.” For the rest, consider this text, from Rev. 12:9, ‘And the great dragon was cast out, that old ser- pent, oalled the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.’ That pretty well describes his work in evolution. And thank God he is to be ‘cast out’ one of these days. Further Adverse Evidence. “Four facts about the origin of things evolution must aecount for, or get out of court: (1) The origin of matter; (2) The origin of force; (3) The orderly and uniform ‘work- ing of force in the universt; (4) The origin of life. Matter and force are eternal, says the atheistic evolu- tionist. And that is the only logical way of accounting for them: far more logical than that of the theistic evolu- tionist, the believer in a Gad, who after creating matter and force with- draws and lets the umiverse evolve and run itself. But saying that mat- ter and force are eternal is not proof; and the assumption is ridiculous. For you have left to explain why force works so uniformly, praducing results that only mind could produce, and an Infinite Mind at that. Also you have | left to explain, that mysterious and awful fact which we call ‘life’. Fail- ing to account for all these facts, evolution ought to have no standing in court. “Of the origin of matter, said: T am in a hopeless Prof. Edward Clodd wrote: ‘Of the beginning of what was before the present state of things, we know noth- ing and speculation is futile’ That well expresses the condition for those who reject the Bible. But he adds the following very ‘scientific’ state- ment: ‘But since everything points to the finite duration of the present creation’—how does he dare use the word ‘creation,’ being an Evolution- ist?—‘we must make a start some- where.” Compare with that the ‘un- sclentific’ story of Genesis, account- ing for all these facts. “As to ‘force,” Dr. Patterson of Chicago says this: ‘Lord Kelvin, the greatest living scientist, said at a meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science of which he was president, ‘One word oharacterizes the most strenuous of the efforts for the advancement of sglenoce that I have made persevering- ly for forty-five years. That word is ‘faflure.’ I know no more of elec- trical and magnetic force, or of the relation ‘between electricity, ether, and enderable matter, or of chémical af- ity, than I knew and tried to teach to my students of natural philosophy fitty years ago, in my first session as professor.’ ” “And Lord Kelvin is quoted as to a conversation between himself and the famous Prof. Liebig: ‘Walking to- gother in the country forty years ago, says Lord Kelvin, ‘I asked him if he believed that the grass and flowers which we saw around us were pro- duced by mere chemical forces. He answered ‘No, no more than I could believe that a book on botany, de- scribing them, could grow by mere chemical forces” Do you get the sharp satire of that, for those who try to account for life by chemistry? Plants grow by chemistry if books can be composed by chemistry! The one is as absurd as the other. “Tyndall, in an address before the Royal Institute, London, after exper- imenting for eight months in an at- tempt to account for life by natural means, frankly admits failure and says: ‘From the beginning to the end ot the enquiry, there is not, as you have seen. a shadow of evidence in favor of the doctrine of “spontaneous generation”. . . In the lowest, as in the highest, of organized creatures, Darwin muddle.’ But And be the issue of antecedent life.’ whence the ’antecedent life’? what ig it? “Mr. Huxley admits, upon the same the method of nature is that lite shall | Most Old People Are Constipated The wear of years impairs the action of the bowels. As people grow older they restrict their activity, neglect to take sufficient exercise, and indulge a natural disposition to take things easy. The digestive organs become more sensitive to the demands made upon them and rebel more quickly. s It is of special importance to the health of elderly people that the bowels be kept normally active. A mild, yet effective, remedy for constipation, and one that is especially suited to the needs of old folks, women and children, is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It costs only fifty cents a bottle, and should be in every family medicine chest. A trial bottle, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 456 Wash- gton St., Monticelio, Illinois. matter and living matter ‘is univer- sally given up.’ “But at this point, when evolution is silent before the mystery of life, when scientists frankly admit that there must have been an ‘antecedent life’ before any living thing existed, the majestic utterance which opens the Bible startles with its clearness and calm dignity, like the roll of thunder behind the hills: ‘In the be- ginning, God created the heaven and the earth!” Oh the folly and the pride of unbelief! The ‘antecedent life’ is the uncreated God! He spake, and it was done! That is sufficient. That satisfies all the demands of reason and of a devout science. And, listen: That is the only ‘scientific’ theory possible! Unbelleving ‘science so-called¥ has pointed its finger at the old book, and assumed to blot out its testimony with evolution. It now confesses its failure, and hides its diminished head in face of the ab- solutely scientific account, and the only scientific account possible, con- tained in the opening sentences of the Bible. The Answer. “With such a failure on the part of evolution, to make good its pompous and harmful attacks upon the Bible, with which it hypnotized nearly the whole world for many de- cades, and which some ‘belated’ ones still cling to, how can its power for so long a time be accounted for— ‘what is the answer?’ “First, its origin accounts for it. Nothing is more clearly taught in the scriptures than the inveterate hatred of Satan toward ‘all that is called God, or that is worshipped.’ That I leave as a dogmatic statement. If any doubt it, the burden of proof is upon them, after all that I have shown about evolution: Satan or- iginated evolution, to destroy the Bible witness, and ruin souls. “Second, on the human side it sprang from unbelief, and appealed to unbelief. Because of the unbelief in its human fathers, it came into existence. Because of unbelief among the ‘learned’ of the earth, it became great. There can be no question that among the so-called ‘scholars’ and ‘scientists’ of the world, there had long been a growing Tesentment against taking anything from mere ‘authority’; and the Bible laid its de- mands upon their allegiance as well as upon the allegiance of the ignor- ant and the lowly. Into that tinder- box Satan d{opped the lighted match of evolution, with the gleeful an- nouncement that ‘science’ need no longer believe the Bible nor bow to its authority God did not create the universe; it simply evolved from noth- ing. And the notion that there is a God anyway, Is more or less of a myth. “S; much for the motive and the manner, so far as the ‘learned’ world i3 concerned. As to tho uneducated and half educated and the would-be- thought educated, everycie knows the metrod adopted there. Eiolution put out its theories and guesses in the name of ‘science’ and ‘the latest scholarship,” varying that attack with an assumption of pity rn for any ;oor belated and ignorant crea- ture who has not heard that Genesis is a back number, and tho Bible is no longer to be accepted when it dab- bles in the mighty themes of ‘sci- ence.’ Haven't you heard it? And do you not know, who have read any in this field, how frequently evo- lutionary science and evolutionary theology use’ the term, ‘the concensus of modern scholarship’ declares so and so? “But this will not do any longer, with those who know how completely ‘modern scholarship’ and real ‘sci- ence’ have discredited this proud piece of Satanic humbug. And the reluct- ance with which some give. it up after it is discredited, is proof of the unbe- lief in and hostility to the Bible that i3 in the hearts of some: they cling to it, because they have left but one alternative, the hated Bible. Like poor King Lear, they look into the face of that awful alternative .and cry, “Let me shun that! No more of that!” And hug their poor col- lapsed life-preserver to their hearts and walt for the submerged wave yon- der. “Third, the shrewd method of manipulating the supposed ‘proofs’ for the truth of evolution opens up one of the strangest events in afl the realms of philosophy and science; they stated their theory in the name of science, without a fact of science to offer in proof; then summoned ns proofs a mass of most attractive and convineing illustrations of evolution from a field where evolution does point of the origin of life, “Phe doc- trine that life can only come from life is victorious all along the line.’ Prof. Conn agserts: ‘There is not the slightest evidence that living matter could arise from non-living matter. Spontaneous generation is universally given up.” That is from a scientist: the spanning of the gulf between dead really exist.

And so evident was it that these {llus- trations proved evolution, that they may be said in charity to have hypno- tized themselves into believing their theory, and to have hypnotized all the world pretty much. Their ‘Q. E. D’ rang around the world, and was upon almost every tongue. “Science took it up. Literature took it up. Every Tom. Dick. and Harry, who wished to be thought a ‘scholar’ took it up. Ministers took it up. College and theological pro- fessors and secular and religious powers took it up. Teachers in:our secondary and grammar schools took it up. And presently even our babies cried for the evolution bottle. The whole world had gone mad after the beast. It was a masterly trick, a mighty victory. The whole inhabited earth crying: ‘Who is like unto the beast ?* . “And the Christian world, now af- ter this debauch of three generations, is waking up and rubbing its eyes and discovering that it has been in an hypnotic trance. Some are not yet fully awake; and some belated ones still seem fast asleep—only a few however. In reply to an inquiry, Prof. L. T. Tomnsend of Boston, to whom I have already referred, replies as follows concerning those still asleep: ‘Some grammar school teach- ers, possibly some belated teachers higher up, may still be teaching evo- lution; but during the last three or four years those best qualified to speak are silent in ,defense of the theory with hardly an exception.’ “That being the case, there is no doubt hope that in our own public schools, where recently there were some ‘belated’ ones, our' Christian children may soon be freed from the necessity of listening to this exploded and mischievous teaching. As to the pulpits where it is tolerated or open- ly taught, we may in ¢harity and love pray for God to speed the day when these men, most of them as honest as any but unquestionably snared by Satan, will have their theological eyes opened to see the glories of God's great revelation upon the pages of the old Bible. “Dear Old Bible!

Buell Describes Lil Aboard Ship “Somewhere” In the following letters William C. Buell tells of his experience while on board ship in a harbor ‘“somewhere in the Atlantic.” He also describes the target practice which the gunners have each day and of their wonderful marksmanship. The letters follow: July 26, 1917. Dear Father and Mother: We are anchored off shore about a mile from Halifax. Had life boat drill. I am in life boat No. 1. Mail will not reach you for some time as it is being taken to Washington to Lk censored. By There are eight other vessels here waiting—for what no one knows. We imagine the U-boats are extra ‘thick and we have put in here unti] it is safe. Expect to stay here until next week. We got a great ovation from the other ships and the Canadlan troops. They certainly do seem glad to see the U. S. in the war. A boy comes out to the ships in a skiff and we get things from him. ‘We have a time with English money. No one knows how much it is worth so when we buy anything we hold out a handful and he picks out what he wants. It is very warm here. Yesterday we were wearing sheepskins and to- day we are sweating. We had a fire on board last evening. No one knows how It started. It looked pretty se- rious for a while. We were all or- dered to put on the life belts. The flames' were from 12 to 15 feet high. Now for lunch. We have breakfast at 8 a. m., lunch at 12:30, tea at 4 and dinner at 6:30. July 27, 1917. Dear Father and Mother: It is much warmer. I have not been on shore since we left New York. How is everything at home? I wish we could get a paper from the States. I have mailed several iet- to offer as proofs illustrations from aj ters to you since we have been here. I do hope you wil get them. Wo can’t go In shore or communicate With anyone on shore. Had corn on the cob today. Last evening we all got in the front end and sang for awhile. You see we are away back in the harbor so we can make as much noise as we wish, also have lights. There are several submarines here that practice every day. There is a fort at the entrance of the harbor, from which they prac- tice shooting at submarines. They make targets of slats as large as the periscope and tower of a U-boat nnd then a tug tows several of these around the harbor at a distance of a mile or two from the guns. The gunners are good shots. I wish I could snap a picture as they sail around us. But we cannot even take our cameras out of our grips. Two more ships came in this morning. What a cheering. Believe me, it makes a fellow feel good to belong to Uncle Sam. This afternoon we have boat races in the life boats, the engineers, avi- ators, Signal Corps and Field service. I am coxswain of one boat. The avi- ators will win as they have several crew men. We have a woman on board who Is insane. She is English and going back to England. She does nothing but down the Americans all day long. She got down in the soldiers’ quarters last evening, calling them all sorts of names. "The men would have han- dled her pretty rough if some of the officers had not happened along. The captain called her to his cabin this morning ‘and told her she would be put in the jug if she did not behave. For dinner we had soup, roast beef, beans, two kinds of potatoes, olives, corn on cob, coffee, rolls, ice cream and pudding. Must try and get this on shore now. Lots of love, BILL. THREE YOUNG GIRLS CONVICTED OF THEFT Cheerfully Admit Skill As Clever Pickpockets Three small girls, admittedly skill- ful pickpockets, were arraigned before Judge James T. Meskill in chambers this mo # ng and sentenced to the School for Girls at Middletown, and ‘a fourth member of the alleged young gang is in custody and will be ar- raigned tomorrow morning. The girls sentenced are Agnes and Mary Am. brose, aged 12 and 13 years respec- tively, and Annie Scopetski, also 12 vears old. The children were ar- rested Saturday by Detective A. J. Richardson. The two Ambrose girls admitted that for many weeks they have been practising their wrongful acts and on the big day when the soldiers went away they admit having picked a number of pockets. Their system was to mingle with the crowds on the street or in the various motion plc- ture houses and remove the owners’ purses from either their pockets or their handbags. On one occasion they visited a small jewelry store and while one girl engaged the clerk in a fake conversation the others rifled the cash drawer. Two other youngsters in the per- sons of Albert Dobruck and Vitey | Waitkevich were also in chambers, charged with theft. They were ar- rested by Officer Willlam Hayes, charged with having stolen a quantity of ‘cookies from the storchouses of Minor, Reed & Tullock and also from the Natfonai Biscuit Co. They were placed on probation. Officials of these two concerns have notified the police that last month alone more than $60 worth of eatables were stolen from them. He Took a Chance. Willam Bailey admitted that he “took a chance” and operated his automobile without a license and then paid the fine of $7 and costs imposed by the court. Willlam Smith and Maurice Riley, both of Main street, were riding along the Plainville road Saturday with Charles Travers of Mil- dale when Balley’s ice truck collided with their car. Smith received in- juries which necessitated his re- | moval to the hospital. Bailey had no operator's license and stated fin court today that he had never held one but at times when business was rushing he operated the machine just the same, “taking a chance.” Trafic Officer Lamphere declared that Bailey | has operated the machine on his son's license.

En route to the police station he gave a hard battle to Policemen Michael Meehan and George Ellinger and this morning faced the additional charge of resisting an officer. Prosecutor Klett also brought out a warrant charging Scott with breach of the paace on July 5, 1916. On motion of Lawyer P. F. McDonough the case was postponed and Scott will appear for trial one week from today. Other Morning Cases. Charged with “shooting craps,” Walter Kovalski of Lawlor street, ar- rested in the rear of Moore's East Main street blacksmith shop by Of- ficer Hayes yesterday, pleaded not guilty. He said he was headed for Ne- , ri’s store ‘put saw the gang shooting crap and ‘“steered his course that way.” Judge Meskill advised the boy to “steer his course a different way’ next time and discharged him. Charles Pranitis of Kelsey street was also given a warning. Pranitis was charged with breach of the peace, the trouble arising out of an alleged neighborhood feud in which, Prosecu- tor Klett declared, the Pranitis fam- ily, the McKenna family and the French family are interested and bel- ligerent parties. A fine of $10 and costs for drunk- enness and assault was imposed on John Campa, who was charged with bouncing an ivory pool ball off the head of one John Johnson.
