[ hpeci tl to Tin : Hi c ] At 11 n. m yes terday Colonel H tin delivered Iho last of the sctles of brilliant Icctmcs which have so grcatlj' delighted all who heard them The opening exercises at this liour consisted of nn anthem bj' the choir nnd the reading of ho eighth chapter of Proverbs , and pr.ij er by ) r Dunning Tins opening pt.ijoi was ono f great earnestness and eloquence , and held .ho great nudlcnco spellbound The audl- nice joined in repeating the Lord's prav er. t was grand to hear the thousands of cam- est voices lopc-ating in unison the wonderful ttajor Christians have been pinjing all over .ho world during all the centuries since the line of the disciples. OColonel Haiti then began his gospel icm- leram.o sermon. It was a logical and clo- jiiont appeal for total abstinence Dtunk- urds mo made from moderato diinkersand ic-ver fiom total abstainers. Modoiato .IrinKlng is saro for a few people , n cutsc to groit many , and a risk to cvcrjbody , while total abstinence is safe for every body 11 nd a curse lo nobody. In icply to the argu- ncnt that the Savior made wine , the lec turer s nd ho would not object to wine were t made out of only what the Sa vior made it cold water The wine hat the Bible blesses Is not the wine thatrtho Hiblocntses The Hiblo's definition of tern- > eranco is Ibis- Moderation in rcgaul to cveijlhliig useful nnd right ; total abstinence u tcgard to everything huttful and wrong. Colonel H tin spoke of the danger of mode-r ule drinking , lefomng to the futo of Hdgar Allen Pco , John Howard Pa\ne , George D. Picntiss and the multitude of who had tiled to bo only modciato diinkeis , but have found ilrunkatd's graves. " 1 can undoistand , " sild Colonel Haiu , ' -how young lady can offer a joung man wine , I can oven understand how a man of inlluenco can take u young man into a bar teem and invilo him to drink , hut 1 cm not understand how a jouug man who loves his mother can enter a bar loom , can ever take even a single glass of that which if long in dulged in will stitoly break Ills mother's heart. " Ho plead with patents to Join the temperance cause for their ehildien's sake , spoke of the crime of the saloon license and expalialcd on the law of human biotheihood which makes itjnilavvful to do anything that causes our brother to Btuuiblc "Huf , " Wtf * "I have influence " "Then one , no jou get j'our coflln mid got out of the world. A man \\hoieally has no Inlluenco has no business to be alive. Evci vouo can do as much as did thobllnd man who catricd a lantctn lhat no ono might stumble over him. The man who both preaches and practices total prohibition will never bo u stumbling block in the waj of others. " In closing , Colonel Haiu said. "Young men 1 plead with jou in the name of mother love , of homo love and of love of heaven. Ho m- dustiious , bo honest , be sober , nnd give jour hcatt lo God , for He is the best fiie-nd man evei had To temper.mco add faith in God and in the immottalitj of the soul.

In discussing the questions asked , inanj of winch were diOicnlt and icquiied eatoful explanation , Prof. Holmes showed icuiink.i bio knowledge of the Bible , and raio tact and ability in handling its dlfUciilt and ob scute passages. It Is a well known fact that as a Hibhc-.tl and histoiical Icacher and Iccluter Piof. Holmes has few if any equals among the Chautauqua woikciu of this country At 1 o'clock Dr Dunning invited all joung people uctvveen Iho ages of Iwclvo and twen ty ono to meet him at the ball in the grove foi a letson on cliiislian ethics. At the ap pointed hour the audicnco benches weio well tilled \\ith joung people , and Dr. Dunning then gavonbilot address , taking for his text John 10 , clniptci 10. "Foi 1 am como that jou might have life , and that jou might haveitmoio abundantly" Jeaus came into the world that Ho might make us nlivo to the things Hint aio highest and best. In order that wo may bo liuly alive wo mast bocuie- lul Hist to make the most of our bodies ; second end , to make the most of our duilj wotk ; thud , to make the most of our af fections ; fouith , lo make the most of our mental and spliitn.il opportunities In the coutso of his address Dr. Duniinif ! gnvo Iho joung people four rules about money Fit si , nlwajs plan to get money onlj by eaining if second , always spend lc-s than you ( arn , thud , nlwujssend | join monej after joulmvo euuieil il ; fourth , alwujs get the best for join money The ductoi said lhat the scc-iet of success in business is not to sco how little woik wo can do and how easily wo can do it , but to see how much woik wo can do and how well we can do it Wo should put the best though ! ami the hcstoffoit in what over wo do , oven in the smallest tiling.
