Wo shall endeavor to present our readers
ors with aa full a synopsis of thosa ad
dresses as space will permit.
Rav. T. J. MoKoy addressed the au
dlonco aa follows :
About the year 1800 or the beginning
of the present century , a poor , Ignoranl
hard-working young girl was attending i
series of moollngs In a country called
Wales , and she became very much interested
ostod in these meetings , and became 1m
pressed with the truths she heard , nut
the ono idea took possession of that pee
girl's mind , that she should in some waj
obtain a Bible , in order to road horaol
the blessed words which she hoard a
these meetings. She went to work get
ting up osrly in the morning so as not t (
take any tlmo from her work , walking
eoveral mlloa , and at the end of six yeara
patient work and unremitting toil , she
had secured enough to obtain the long
coveted Biblo. She walked twonty-sb
iniloa ono bright spring morning to the
only place where that Bible could bo obtained
tainod , and on arriving there she found
to her dismay that ho had sold out all hit
stock , and that not ono Bible remained ,
When ho told her story to the man whc
sold the Bibles , ho burst into teara and
"Yon shall and must have a Bible. '
Io wont to London and told the story tc
Jew wealthy frlonda there , end thej
pt and talked the matter over , and thi
quit waa that in the year 1804 a Blbli
Fcloty was established and started on iti
aroor which It haa occupied over since
til It haa now assumed thi
oportions that it holds to-day
! all started from that ono poor aorvan
jirl's desire for a copy of the bible thai
\o could call her own. Statistics an
Inorally dry , but I waa interested In i
jBolf and thought perhaps you woulc
i to hoar of the work that sprang froa
t little incident. The British ant
Eidlgn bible society started in March ,
18U4. When It began itj work there
were only five million copiea of the bible
In existence. In 1883 it issued 2,8ii4OCK
copies , and the total issues aitico 180-1
roach the immense number of over DC-
000,000 , while counting all the issues ol
ether BoclolloB , wo have the grand total
of of ICO.000,000 slnco 1804. At thai
time the bible waa translated Into fifty-
six languages. It is now translated intc
315 different languages. In that daj
the coat of. a bible wan forty pounda aler
ting , which is equal in our money today
to $2,000 00. That same bible can be
bought to-day in any city In England foi
probably twelve cents , and If the twelve
cents IB not forthcoming , it will bo giver
away. It may give us aomo idea of the
vaotnoei of the work when wo know tha
at the present rate of issue , nearly tot
thousand copies of the bible are issuoe
nearly every day in the year except Sua
day. Reckoning twelve hours to a daj
this gives an average of 83J every hou
and over 13 every minute , or taking the
whole 24 hours , between six and sever
every mlnuto , day and night all througl
the week. The bible house of the Amor
loan Bible Society ia capable of Isauin )
two million copies or about C,000 ooploi
every working day , COO every hour , eton
ton every mlnuto , throughout Iho year
Or , again , suppose all the 90 millions o
bibles could bo put aldo by aide 'on
ahelf , and they only measured on an average
orago qf ono Inch across the back , the ;
would require a ahelf 1,480 mlloa long t
hold them. The bible is a book that ha
stood the criticism of ages , the scoifi an
Bnoera of men who can only bo excuse-
ou UuTploa of ignor&nco , and It haa ani
will stand the tost.
Rov. Dr. McCroary next addressed th
mealing with the words :
It might bo well to ask ourselvo * wh
It is that means are used to circulate th
Bible among all the nations of th
earth Of all other books books cor
taining deep thoughts ; books contalniu
the highest flight * of the grandest poeti
booka containing the wisest phllosophj
we see no special etiort to circulate on
of these. We speak of Shakespeare , wh
know the human heart ao perfectly an
wrote ( t o beautifully , and yet thor
oxlsta no soclely ( or the purpose o
translating and circulating hia work
throughout the world , Wo might g
through a whole catalogue of noted booki
Y and we would find that thla wonderft
book called the Bible , is the only boo
that society expends money to iprea
over the world. Ono of the tint reason
to my mind It this : It Ia the only boo
that reveals God to man. It it the on !
source whoreiu we have a knowledge c
that Being. Hen have studied nature
philosophy and icieuco to find out Goo
No book in the universe answers the
question save this ono book that lias com
do ira ttom asges. Another reason Is tha
the substantial fundamental truths tha
men need are found in it. The tmestlou
'What Is truth1 haa been a question tha
h a moved the hearts and minds of men i
the oarlicat ages , and still moves thorn
and when wo come to inquire what It it
wo find it In the worda of 111 in who aaid
"I am the Way and the Truth. "
Ono reason moro why wo are sondlni
out this book' la because it ia the enl ;
book that assures man of his immortal !
ty. Everywhere throughout the worli
men have been crying through all th
agua and still cry , "If a man dlo shall h
live again ? " The grave has given bad
no answer , and eternal silence has falloi
upon the race until there came the Mai
of Nazareth who stood at the grave o
Ltzirns , and answered it in the words
"I am the resurrection and the life. II
that bollovoth in Mo though ho won
dead yet ahall ho 11 vo again. " That wa
the grand .banner of the gospel of hop
that brought light and Immortality tc
the grave.
Rov. A. K. Batca followed Dr. Mo
Dreary with the following words :
While the tabernacle waa cstabllshoi
in the wlldorneaa and while thf tempi
stood in all Us grandeur , there won
throe classes of people in and about thi
tabernacle and the temple. There wori
those who stood ontaldo gating with wonder
dor and * awe upon thla place where thi
presence of God waa at hand , but no
daring to enter , there were these whi
might go in , and there was ono man whi
waa permitted to come into the vor
presence of God and hold communioi
with Him.
There are two of these classes In thli
world to-day. There are these who :
the scripture puts It , are "without Got
and without hope in the world. " Then
la another class and that class embrace
only such as know aomothing by actua
experience.
There ia no man who comes into thi
presence of God and holds communioi
with Him and with the Son , Jesus Christ
but the man who ia versed in the hoi ;
scripture. I want to Include every mat
In thia whole city , and every woman
who la a more moral being , I care no
how pure a lifo they are loading , the ;
are shut out from living in communioi
with God. Wo want to Bond out thi
work of God to them that they may nebo
bo shut out from thia Inestimable prlvil
ego.
ego.Rov. . E. H. H. Fleming , who haa boot
appointed by the Pottawattamlo Count ;
Bible Society for the purpose of canvass
Ing the fclty to supply those in need o
biblna , followed with an intoroatlng ad
dress in which ho gave a history of th
results of his work In different parts o
the country , and impressed upon hi
hearers the Importance of the atnpen
dioun work in which the American Blbl
Society is engaged , and the asstatanc
necessary to carry it on successfully. Hi
estimated that In thlc city alone thor
were 840 families who had no bible In th

Trial lor Murder.
San Franciflcu Call ,
George T. Lynch , a tail , grayboardei
man , with n kindly eye , la on trial bcfon
department 2 of the superior court o
Alamodn county , for murder. Ho Is ao
cased of having inflicted a fatal wounc
upon David Iloachon San Pablo avenue'
In Juno last. The statements of Lynch'i
history are moat extraordinary. At thii
day It ia claimed for him that ho is thi
heir to c great entailed estate in IrcUnd ,
the annual income from which ia $30,000
The present occupant of the prop *
crty is over ninety years old , and , o :
course , very near the end of life
When a young man Lynch diverted him
self from hi * family by intemperance
and ho la considered the black sheep it
the fold. For a tlmo ho was a morohau
in Jackson , Miss. , and at ono tlmo wai
worth $100,000. Ho lost hia money
drank heavily , wandered about the earth
and finally ended as n peddler of amal
wares , knives , spectacles , etc. , in Oak
land. IIo lived on Myrtle street , between
tweon Third and Fifth. Ills pride re
malnod , however , for ho objected aorl
ously to carrying a peddler' * case , In
stead ho procured a llttlo leather casi
that had the appearance of a "gin case , at
that people might take him for a sports
man , as ho testified yesterday. Th <
statements concerning the family an
vouched for na focta by Colono
Gibson , [ ono of Lynch's counsel
la the trial the prosecution closoc
yesterday morning , and \Vollea Whit
moro made the opening statement fo
the defense. Lynch himaulf waa 1m
mediately placed upon the aland to tel
his story. Upon cross-examination hi
proved nnxlona to enlarge hia answer
and explain nt great length matter :
brought out by the questions. Ho aooki
clearly and grammatically. Ho describee
hia course upon the day on which thi
atabblng occurred. He peddled hi
wares on Twenty-seventh , Twonty-oightl
and Twcnfy-nlnth streets , from Sat
Pablo avenno to Telegraph avenue , anc
when about to go home ontorei
the saloon of Mrs. Hagan to offbi
goods for sale. Daniel Roach , the deceased
ceased , and two other men were in thi
saloon. Not liking their looks , Lyncl
did not open hia caao , but , instead , ordered
derod a glass of boor. According to hii
testimony ho waa drugged , for ho be
came dazed and subsequently sank Intc
o stupor from which ho did not revlvi
until the succeeding day. Ho tostinoc
that ho was robbed and beaten. Ho had
no recollection of drawing any knlfo , noi
ot stabbing Roach , who came acres :
from San Pablo avenno to moot him afto :
ho had left the saloon.
The dofonce Introduced ovldonco tend
ing to prove Lynch'a stupor , and also t (
provo that Roach's reputation for peace
and quietness was bad. The dofonci
rested their caao in the afternoon , am
the prosecution will introduce rebntta
testimony thia morning.
A Scat In the Cabinet.
Boston Advertiser.
For many years the gentlemen whi
have been called upon to perform thi
modest duties of the office of commia
sioner of agriculture have been atlllctoi
with a desire to bo called a cabinet min
later. At times with comparative frank
ness , they have lobbied openly to secun
the desired end , and at other times , will
aomo ingenuity they have disguised theli
ambition and loft their interests in "tb <
hands of their frlonda. " Wore It notfo ;
the partial success that haa attended thi
efforts to secure favorable loclslatloi
from congress , their doine in thia mallei
would attract little attention. Aa It la
the subject should bo fully considorec
and disposed of.
In the first place , the nco of the wort
cabinet In this country la unfortunate
and has led to mistaken ideas of oui
forms of government in the minds , no
only of foreigners , but of 111-lnformni
Americans. A cabinet , in the Engllsl
HOUSO , la a body of constitutional ndvlsori
to the sovereign. Its mombora have Beat
In parliament , and have charge of thi
framing and Introduction of the moat im
portant measures. If the majority of thi
iioaso of commons show lack of confieonc
in the cabinet by voting adversely on oni
of thene leading bills , the cabinet show
its recognition of ita responsibility to pop
u'ar ' approval , by resigning office. In thi
country , the members of the cabinet ar
not , in an identical sense , the constilu
tional adviaora of the president ; they an
merely required to furnish him , on demand
mand , with written opinions on topics re
lating to .matters within their special do
partmonts. They do not and cannot havi
seats in congress. They do not inlinti
legislation , and the fact their politics
views fail tc harmouieo with these o :
cither branch of the national legislature
has no bearing on their tenure of oflico
or with the way in which they admlnis
tor their several duties.
On the other hand , there has been i
growing tendency of late for the Prcsl
dent to loan moro and moro heavily 01
his Cabinet for advice. Regular , as rrol
aa irregular , meetings are held , at whicl
the President presides , and at which thi
Secretaries of State , of the Treasury , thi
Interior , the Navy , of War , and the At
lornoy-Gonoral and Postmaster-Genera
are present , and expected to join In gen
ral discussion of all matters of oxecutiv
policy and administration. Their decl
slon , however , ia notbindlngon the Proa
ident , oven by courtesy , and with th
election of a man of unusual persona
vigor , nnd obstinacy of character , i
would bo quite likely that formal Cablno
meetings would grow few in number.
The commissioner of agriculture am
by this wo do not by any means lutom
to reflect on the present occupant of tha
office , but only to speak of the loilos o
officials bearing that title has desired t
have hia dignity ao inflated that it will b
natural for the president to call him Int
the company of thoao now favored wit !
executive secrets Ho doilros that th
agricultural department or bureau , as I
might have boon more appropriate i
term It , ahall bo made a full fledged department
partmont with a secretary of agricnltur
at its hexd , equtl In official rank wit !
the secretary of .elate , whoso care ea
braces our national relations with al
foreign countries , or with the aocrotar.
of the treasury , whoao financial reapoiui
bilitlcs are equalled by few other oflicUl
in the world. The duties of the com
miigloner of agriculture , aa prescribed b
law , are simply to furnish our farmer
with uaeful information and seeds.
The homo of representatives , which , a
ono tlmo , talked of abolishing the whol
department of agriculture , haa four time
wo believe , paued a bill framed to ac
eimpllah the fttnbltioui deiires of * h
commlulonei , who whites a eoat In th
cabinet , liere the humorous element I :
this affair ends , and the sober aide devel
ops. It ia the ftut that one branch o
congress ia willing to favor iuch a pi a
that makes It worth while to protee
against the possibility of favorable aotlo
b/ the senate.
It will be well for the senate to take n
thii bill , which ia now before It , and 1m
I , > on the country the fact that ai
h whAae legal functions do not tak
iL , outside the domain of the seeds , for
lllzors , potato bugs , and the diseases o
ittlo , Is not absolutely essential as i
abinot minister. If the president yearn
or advlco ou these points , ho ia alroad ;
mablod by the constitution to obtain i
n writing.
