of the earthly life of Christ on the

The event was the lecture of Bishop
Shayler, head of.-ths church in Ne
braska on his trip to the Holy Land
and which had been, one of the most
extensive as he, with the large party
of American and English clergy, had
visited all the famous spots of the
bible history and in these scenes and
the close personal touch with the
places of holy interest had received a
renewed zeal in the teachings of the
church.
The lecture given in the interesting
and gripping manner of iBshop Shay

places of the bible history and was
particularly interesting in the observ
ance of the Lenten season when the
Christian world is spending the forty

thinking in commeration of the ap
proach of the day of sacrifice of the
Christ on the cross for the redemption
of mankind and the resurrection of

which is the teaching of the great
Christian churches throughout the
world and for the redemption of raan-

the Christ upon the cross.
