o THE OMAHA DAILY FRIDAY , MAY 17 , 1805. orRani * < < 1 labor. Only In thU war can wo garo ourselves from "this untoward genera tion. " If wo hill conicrve the- liberties of natloni It will depend upon the manner In which wo use our stewardship. It the spirit of the gospel la not Injected Into the body politic we will perish. The very sign of our power will become the moans of our destruction. The ghastly skel eton * of our national llfo will bo tumbled In the common ditch of dead empires. In Alia Minor the Mohammedans are aeek- Ing to ward off good , but hiding It for fear of persecution , One bought the scriptures In Spanish and learned the language that he might read It In safety. Another walked 100 miles and paid 1.60 for a copy , all he could eriaro from a year' * work. India l not only a mltslonary neld , but has prepared ministers of mercy for other fields. The foreign work is as God's high school of patience , but It Is worth all that It costs , teaching us to master time by wearing It out. GOO'S CALL TO WOMEN. Another of the manifestations of divine power Is dod'a call to women Into every form of mission work. She , like bor mas ter , has waited long , and now In the full ness of lime , the Lord In his house has ap- polrted her work a new extended sphere of service. In the circle of practical work , the church lias always been a loser In not using cheap labor. The Koman Catholic church has been built up and sustained by It. We luxve more skilled labor going to waste for want of op portunity than any other church. We do not plead for any particular mode of utilizing It. but for Its use In the beat way that the church can devise. Wo have thousands of Intelligent and Godly women , single and widowed , with wealth and without It , who nr.i looking hopelessly for Eomethlng to dote to take away the ennui of unoccupied exist ence who would go Into homes and Institu tions where they could do mission work. Such Institutions are numerous In England and Germany , and managed by the most cultured w&men. The Methodist church was founded and Is largely sustained by local preachers. The Presbyterian church , even In Its poverty , was distinguished by an educated ministry , The standard ought to be high , but the cost of a highly educated ministry In time , money and vital force must be con Bldered. No church has so many educated laymen , gifted with ability to tench and elo quent In speech , who thirst to serve God , not as bushwhackers , but with the approval and authority of the presbytery. Why not examine them In the scriptures as Inter preted by our standards and license them ? Shut the door to ordination all the tighter , as toward It there Is a dangerous tendency by a class which Is not qualified for It. If wo had allowed this New Testament example , we should never have had the seism which resulted In the Cumberland Presbyterian church. Wo have como now to the watch tower , and tbo sentinel services , for the command V > the porter Is to watch. This Is not an Individual commission , "for what I say unto you. I say unto all , watch ! " We are to watch the signs of the times to fit us both for the work and for the coming Lord. These are wondrful days In which wo live. We should thank God that wo have come to tbo kingdom for such a time as this. The arms ot , God are around this generation and he baa opened to ua the doors of opportunity. The force of twenty centuries appears In the close of this one. As the century plant pours the strngth ot Its hundord years Into the unfolding ot Its last hour , so we look for the outflashlng glory of the Nineteenth con- titry In Its ending. Wo can already hear the whirring of wheels Into the block of destiny as It strikes out the present to bring In tht more glorious future. The men of the next cfptury will step upward from our graves and In whatever else we may have failed , wo will contribute this much to their preparation for the coming of the Son of Man. ELECTION OF OFFICERS NEXT. What was considered a significant fact by many was that Dr. Robert Russell Booth of New York did not occupy a scat upon the platform , but took a chair In an obscure cor ner , while a western opponent participated In the opening exercises. The church In which the general assembly Is being held Is one of historic Interest. Hero In 1S3C , was held the convention and assem bly which resulted In the disruption of the denomination. Ono of the great questions then was assembly control of missionary so clettes , as the great question ot the assembly Is the assembly cdntr6l' 6f theological sent InarltM. Tlio old andi new school genera assemblies met In PIttsburg for the last tlmo la .November , 1869 , twenty-six , years ago When they adjourned a union meeting was held In the Third Presbyterian church. I was" at thanksgiving service and the event Is commemorated In a beautiful mural table in the vestibule of the church. The Thin church was dedicated In November. 1869 , so that the quarter centennial ot the dedication may now be celebrated as well as the quar tcr centennial ot the reunion mais meeting The sermon was closely listened to by the audience. After the sermon the commie slonors wont to the Fourth Avenue Daptls church , where lunch was served. During the meal and the subsequent recess before the assembly reconvened , the question , "Who Shall De Moderator ? " was the only one unde discussion. This morning thcro had been several names In the air , but Rev. Boot ! seemed to be everywhere. General Beaver , a lifelong friend ot Rev. Booth , stated during thfl atiernoon that he would nominate his friend and he would be seconded by Prof Andrew 0. Zenas of McCormlck seminary Chicago , Among the others mentioned a candidates were : Dr. John I. Blackburn o Covlngton. ICy. ; Rev. Howard A. Johnson Chicago ; Warren II. Landon. Portland. Ore. It.

"Tbe London club Is made up of a lot ot first class mobi , whose only claim to recognition Is the possession ot a lot ot titles , many of which no self-respecting man would care to carry.
