Moffatt Is Unanimously Elect- ed Moderator. —_—— WINONA LAKE, Ind, May 18.—Dr. James D. Moffatt, president of the Washington and Jefferson College, ‘Washington, Pa., was elected moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly this afternoon. There was no opposi- tion. Dr. Moffatt's name was presented by Dr. Robert McKenzie of New York, seconded by Dr. Jobn H. Converse of Philadelphia and Dr. John F. Hende of Jefferson City, Mo. The question which overshadows all others before the assembly, which con- vened to-day, and one which will be approached with great caution, is that of taking the Cumberland branch into the General Assembly. While the church in the North has voted over- whelmingly in favor of the proposi- tion and the Cumberland church has given consent by a small majority, the commissioners to the assembly realize there was a difference of opinion on the question. Presbyterians in the South- west are against the proposition. In his address Rev. Addison Henry, the retiring moderator, said the Presbyterian church is now in the period of its great- est prosperity. The church’s evangelistic work in Denver and on the Pacific Coast. was reviewed. He urged the preaching of evangelistic sermons. For sixty years, he said, the efforts of the church had been directed toward doctrines. For the next fifty years these efforts should be given to evangelistic work. Former Moderator Robert F. Coyle of Denver was among those on the platform. S i et Portland Gets Baptist Convention. ST. LOUIS, May 18.—Contrary to the usual custom of Baptist conventions, the place of the next meeting being select- ed by a committee, the delegates to-day practically unanimously voted Portland, Ore., as the place for the Baptist anni- versaries in 1906. This action followed an invitation to meet in the Pacific Coast city extended by Revi Dr. J. W. Bowers. ———ip——— L CELEBRATES ONE HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY OF HER BIRTH Bellingham Woman Is Still Active Though She Has Lived a Full Century.

PRESBITERINS IN THE SOUTHWEST ARE OPPOSED MBERLAND BRANCH. — 4 COLLEGE PRESIDENT WHO WAS ELECTED MODERATOR OF THE PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL SEMBLY. — AS- OF CHURCHMEN FRESNO, May 18.—The Cumberland Presbyterians, in session here, failed to elect a moderator for their general as- sembly at their afternoon session, as is the custom, because of a contest over the seating of a number of delegates. After addresses of welcome by Mayor Lyon, A. L. Hobbs, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Rev. A. P. Brown, on behalf of the churches of Fresno, to which respdnse was made by Moderator Settle, the organization of the body was begun by calling the roll. Of the 114 presbyteries, six had no com- missioners present. Sixty-four had full delegations. During the rollcall it de- veloped that several seats would be con- tested. J: J. McClelland moved to appoint a committee on credentials, of which Judge Young and Judge Prendergast, two prom- inent oppenents of unions, should be mem- bers, with three others. This was done, Drs. Templeton, and Earle and. Eider T. H. Cobbs be!ng appointed. McClelland ‘wanted the assembly to agree not to pro- ceed to the election of a moderator until the credentials report had been adopted. This motion failed, but it was agreed to give the committee ample time to do its work and the time for hearing the re- port was fixed at the close of the popular missionary meeting at night. The roll to-day showed am attendance of 238 commissioners, 127 being ministers and 111 ruling elders. It is estimated that the unionists have a majority of about thirty. The committee on credentials reported recommending that all of the challenged commissioners be seated. An effort was made to adjourn, but, though late, the assembly determined to elect a moder- ator. Dr. Fullerton nominated Dr. J. B. Hail, the senior missionary to Japan, now in this country on furlough. Rev. R. W. Binkley nominated Rev, W. M. Crawford Dr. Hail was elected by a majority of 29.

NEW YORK, May 18.—Higher criti- cism of the Bible was condemned as an “insidious disease,” the book of Jonah was declared to be historical than a parable, and the claim was made that archaeology had proved beyond question the historical worth of the book, at to-day’s session of the closing day of the American Bible League Con- vention. Speaking on the topic, “Effects of the Higher Criticism on the Ministry,” Rev. Dr. E. Fitch Burr of Lyme, Conn., de- clared that the so-called higher ecriti- cism, like a deadly disease, runs g:rough variqus phases till it brings e destruction of all distinctively Christian dogma. Rev. John Urquhart of Glasgow, Scotland, replying to the question, “Is the book of Jonah history or parable?” maintained that Jonah was a historical character and that the scripture stood | ach, Liver and Bowels and so qurlflus the blood And through the bl t cleanses, re}min, and invi; m lhe oleu stem. | n recovering from * or in con- | valescenco from pneumm a, fevers, or ozhe:i lexhluatins t‘lhlw tgotfilng u;:n‘n ual it as an appetizing, restorative tonic e'g build up muged flesh and strength.
