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. N. Adams , Red River , Minn. , and Rev
William N. Page , D.D. , of Topeka , Kan.

CHICAGO , May 1C. "It the National Sport-
ag club ot London will give a purse ot any
mount from a far till 115 to 5,000 I will bax
'cter Jackson In th ? arena , " hotly declared
attics J. Corbett. "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. I have bsen thera
and know what I am talking absut. They are
the flimsiest excuse * for men that over dis
graced a community.
"I do not speak boastfully when I say that
Jackson and I would bj the greatest card the
sporting world has ever had In a box office
and I suppose the National chappies would
urn mo down because , according to them , I
owe them an apology. Its members profess
to think that Jackeon would have an easy
.Im ? In defeating me and have been so out
spoken In their dislike for me and their ad
miration for the black that I have declined to
trial with them , my friends fearing I would
not be given an even chance. I am willing
o allow them to wltntss Jackson slaughter
na and will sacrifice mysHf eagerly that they
may gaze at my humiliation at the hands ot
the AtiMrallan. I'll do that Just to be ob
stinate , because , In view of recs-nt develop-

"My offer Is this : I will meet their man ,
for such he Is , In September It Flfzslmmona
and I do not get a battle , for any purse they
may put up , on their own terms and In their
own arena. That ought to bo sufficient with

respect and dignity to offer to such a crowd

acknowledged to Munyon's representative this
reason for not purchasing thcee remedies before - *

the wonderful cured made by them , have In
vested their 25 ccnta with some druggist for
a bottle of Munyon's and been restored to
health. Thousands of others will do the
same this week , and as each day passes hun
dreds of converts will b < 5 made to this new
