In the course of his lecture he said that the Jew is considered a wandering mys- tery instead of being, as he really is, a wandering r. velation. H= spoke about the three names piven the J amely, those of Hebrew, Israel- ite ana Jew. He said they are not syno- nyms, as many people seem to think, but each one represents an episode in the his- tory of the race. He also spoke of the treatment accorded the Jews in the aifferent ages and ended by saying that the race is better treated in the nineteenth century than ever before. — o — To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxutive Eromo Quinine Tablets.

Following are some of the sermons preached on that subject: At the Howard Methodist Episcopal Church a novel song service preceded the | regular sermon. The hymns were all sung to popuiar airs, and the Boys’ Brigade of that church acted as an an- tiphonal choir in the gallery opposite the trained choir. Rev. Dr. Wilson took for his subject *“I'he True Manhood of Young He said in part: - one of the most celebrated sacred poets and preachers ol the last centur: small physically, never reaching 100 avoir- dupois, overheard & gentleman say, who saw him for the first time, **What, that man! | don’t mesn 10 sey that is thegreat Dr. Watt | provisation: Were I 80 tall to reach the pole And grasp the ocean with & span, 1 must be measured by my soul— | Mind is the standard of the man. | Certainly 1t is not physique, else the biggest animal would be the greaiest man, and many demonstrated that pure intellectuality equally a fuilure ss a standard of manhood. ic is & true man; oneof nature’s noblemen,” | is often said of those who lack both in avoir- | dupols ana in cultured intellect.

The door of mercy is never shut. The gate of par- don stands open nignt aud day. At the Chinese Presbyterian Church yesterday afternoon K-v. Dr. J. A. Gard- ner. a former missionary among the Chinese in Victoria, preached on the sub ject of “Harvesting.” He divided his sermon into three paris—the harvest sown, the harvest of the body, and the harvest of the soul. He passed briefly heads and dwelt esve- cially on the harvest of the soul. He ad- vised the young men to sow the rizht kind of seeds, so when the harvest came they would reap good and not evil. The week of prayer for young men was auspiciously opened 1n the Y. M. C. A, auditorium _vesteraay afternoon, when the Rev. Dr. E. R. Dille and a special male choir of thirty voices enteriained a very large audience that the seats in the main hail and gallery could not hold. Dr. Dille discussed earnestly and ina picturesque cratorical style the uubject‘ *Who and What Was Jesus of Nazararh?’ He said that if Christ were only an imag- inary character then the nan that created The doctor turned upon hipi with this im- | that character and made it speak with the wisdom and the gentleness and the to Jesus was an author and a delineator of char- acter greater than Shakespeare, as great as a Christ himself. But, he declared, the men that recorded Christ’s acts and ut- terances were simple people. It were im- possible that the purest water should sparkie from a fountain defiled. Christ was a reality, God in ideal human form come to teach a lesson to mankind and set exampie for all time. Dr. Dille dealt in many beautiful com- parisons to impress his meaning, and when he had concluied he was generally applauded. Rev. Dr. George C. Adams of the First Congregational Church said: The poets have made out that God made the couniry and man the city. But the Bible be- gins in the country and ends in the city, and all its teaching of civilization is in favor of the city. Young men flock tn it in bope of making conquestof fortune, When they come tired and discouraged any one who beiriends them has influence. To Oliver Twist, nearly aead on the road, the Arttul Dodger was an angel of light and led him easily to the aen ot Fazin, the robber.

At St. Luke’s Ep:scopal Church last night the services were under the direc- tion of the Brotherbood of St. Andrew. L. C. McAfee, a well-known business man of this city, introduced William Sterling of Chicago, who spoke in part as follows: The church expects every man to do his duty. It does not expect the women to do their duty—they are already doing it. We men respect our business obligations, but how sbout our obligations to God? I am aftaid we do not pay enough attention to that part. We stay at home and let alone the ma- chines that make our politics, which have been getting us_in such bad odorin the eyes of the world.

Bishop Nichols, who has just returned from Europe, then spoke glowingly of the tuture of the brotherhood, after which a collection was taken to pay the remainder of the money due on the little mission at Ocean View. | Macdonald (retired), Lieutenant-Colonel Du- posed to any further reorganization, having Jjust about settled down since tne last ordered Tearrangement of the force.

The pro- ficlency attained with regard to the service with the pieces was commendable and demon- strated that the service was within the range of National Guard work, and that such a force should ve considered in the project of the de- fense of San Francisco harbor.” One who is well ported in the work of the National Guard of this State and who has | watched it closely for years, in talking ot Na- tional Guardsmen and big guns, said that when the movement to reorganize the guard, which finel resulted in its reorganization, the propo-ition to retain the artiliery branch was strongly urged by those who could appre- ciate the necessity of having a good portion of the guard versed 1n the art of handiing both ight and heavy guns, so that in case of need they could be ready at a moment's notice to serve with the light artillory or witn the heavy guns at the fortifications, but this was cast aside by political militiamen who had certain ends to attein. One proposition was that in the allotment for San Francisco there should be an cight- company regiment of infautryand a baitalion of tour companies of artillery, but those who invored this were unabie to carry their point, and infaatry won.
