' Rev. T. V. Moor. V. D., at the Weft
minster Presbyterian church, choae for his
text Job xxvl. 14, these are but the
outskirts of His ways, and how small a
whisper do we hear of Him, but the
thunder of His power who can under
stand?"
"If you stand upon a lighted space," said
Dr.? Moore, "the clearer the light the
broader you will find the area and the
clearer become the darkness beyond. If
you light a small lire at night the circle
of darkness la small and does not impress
you. But If you pile up the faggots until
there Is a great blase and the light shines
up to heaven the darkness will Impress you
wonderfully.
"Job turned In two directions to see the
outskirts. First he looked at the spirit
world about which we know by Inference
and personal experience almost nothing
and Into whose realm we And it so hard.
Ten In Imagination, to enter. To him It
was simply a great realm of half death
and half life; a region of dim shades In
which all was darkness and confusion. But
looking Into this world be said the power
of Ood Is here.
Oatsklrts of His Way.
' "Then he turns from the spirit world
to the world of material existence. There
he finds all the strength of God's power.
"lxi, these are but the outskirts of His
ways, but the thunder of His power who
can understand.'
"But If Job had but a little handful of
twigs lighted to show him, we are stand
lug under an aro light. Ood has written
two great books. The book of nature and
the book of revelations of His work and
by His revelations I do not mean the
scriptures alone. First of all we can read
the book of nature. In Job's day he never
dreamt of Its grandeur. The people of his
time did not possess the microscope, spec
troscope and other instruments which have
mad the book of nature clear to us and
by which we have had revealed to us those
elements of nature which the human eye
unnlded could never hope to discover.
Astronomy, biology, chemistry and other
studies which have reached such a state
of perfection with us were as a sealed book
to the people of Job's time."
(lOLDS ROTOR OF GOD tXEXDIXG.
Rev. J. W, Jennlaas rrecchcs on
Vairtaesa of Time.
The pulpit of the Hanscom Park Metho
llst church was occupied by Presiding Ulder
I. W. Jennings yesterday morning. It belrur
the oocaslan of his regular quarterly visit
to that church. His discourse waa based
db. the scriptural assurance that "A thou
sand years of the Lord Is but as one day,"
Taking this literally, Mr. Jennings drew
some very Interesting deductions as well
as showing some forcible truths. He started
out with the Idea that human possibilities
are limited, both as to time, space and
atmospherlo conditions.
' "If a man goes too far north It Is too
cold for him to live and If ha goes In the
other direction It soon gets too hot," said
he. "About the fastest he has ever suc
ceeded In traveling Is a mile a minute, and
at this rate how long It would take him
to reach tha sun.".
He, also compared this speed with the
fat (it which light and sound travel and
sold that 1M of our years were but a year
On the planet of Neptune and one year on
Uranus equals eighty-four of our years.
"On Neptune, figuring on God's reckoning
of time, Adam would even now be but
about six days old, and beyond the border
of the planets there Is no limit of time or
pace. God's word Is likened to a will that
a man makes disposing of his earthly
possessions. Unless it Is administered
within forty years It outlaws with us, but
God's promises to mankind, on His basts
of time, have only been made a few days,
and man cannot compute the time When
they will outlaw. A man who has at some
time committed a sin and thinks because
It may have been forty or fifty years or
ven longer aro that Ood has forgotten It
must remember that It has been only a few
seconds since he did It, according to Ood's
reckoning. Again, Ood's promises to the
world are like a promissory note, only
with the difference that while our notes
sutlaw in a few years, the Ink Is hardly
Oiy on the ones that God has made to us
when ours, among men, are crumbled to
lust and decoy."

Bt. Peter. "Whom having not seen He
loved," for his text. He dwelt upon the
plritusi sight.
"There is something," aald he, "that ex
'ists lo our souls in every man, woman and
child that when developed, as yours Is de
veloped In you. becomes the Infalllable
guide and the organ of vision for the soul.
That is the moral sense. Even savages
have standards of morality. In our Chris
tian civilisation this sense becomes con
science. This Is a wonderful gift a won
aerful voice. It s the voice we need In

I wish you nothing else In the world than
that you have this laner vision; this spir
itual uplift."
WHY ALL BHOl LO BE I THE ( HIBCH
DM?. Cowley Aaawers the Qaestlea la
a gersaoa.
Rev. J. W. Conley, D. P.. of the First
Baptist church spoks . yesterday on the
theme of "Why Be a Church MemberT"
"All persona who come to the sge of
maturity aro called upon to decide upon
their attitude toward the church," said Dr.
Conley. "This subject may be arranged
under four heads, namely: Skepticism, In
difference, kindness and Identification with
the church. Now, what la the right po
sition to assuraeT Church membership is
a rat hold to tbe Individual. It repre
sents the better class of society. Every
rh'irch member la willing to testify that
his church membership lias been a great
help to Mm. ' The church Is the most dig
nified and noble Institution that we know
anything about . For one to Identify him
self with the church shows - that he Is
worthy of trte respectability that attaches
to church membership. The church stands
for the stimulating Inquiry into higher
things. There la not a man here but needs
the Inspiration of the church to elevate
him to higher things. There may be ionic
wosji maa Lb Las Uiurch, but Ul resuiLLug
Influence of the church may keep him
from being meaner. Ood does not Judge
men by com pari son. but by the Individual.
Every light thinking man ought to do
something to help make the world better.
"One cannot be a Christian without want
ing to help humanity. The church Is the
organised force for everything that Is
good. The church of Christ Is not seeking
a social revolution, but seeks to accom
pllsh a revolution In the Individual. Take
your stand with the church of Christ and
unite with the motives of Christ. The In
dividual unorganised amounts to but little,
but united with the church of Christ lie
becomes the possessor of a force. We can1
riot exalt the church unless we stand for
Christ. The glory of the church of Christ
Is that It always has a place for the poor,
There are not more than five great Protest
ant churches in the United States. There
are of course numberless smaller sects, but
there are not more than five great groups
whose membership exceeds 1,000,000."

Dr. Gorat Makes Solemn Appeal to

The services Siinrtnr venlna at Rw, rit

bearing out this snlrlt rmm "Nnr

the late President McKlnley, to the in-

the Voice of Jesus Bay." by Mrs. Bides, a
new memoer or the choir, whose voice Is a
strong, splendid soprano, was Impressive.
The solemnity of the occasion was in
ened by the force of the sermon on the
text, "If fhou shalt confess with thy
mouth and believe In thfna ha.. h.
Urd Jesus Christ, and that Ood hath
rsisea Him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved." "My belief Is that ti,a la ,.

Imply poverty. Ood created gold and silver
ana ainmnnas and all manner of precious
stones, and rave us ability. v
to secure them, and we can use riches to
rurther God s cause and so brighten the
world. A full and perfect belief In Christ's
resurrection and His power to save and
keep us Is a strong force sustaining us In
the Ills, the temptations and snriefs of life.
and so It is not essential that creeds be

Redikha. .
HOW INDIANS CHAStD HERD GUARD
Blar Drwnk at Fort Ketterman, Thrill
In Ride of Ten Soldiers and
Back Stampede Are Re
lated.
A group of retired veterans of the regular
army assembled at the St. James hotel a
few evenings ago and being more or less
in the reminiscent mood, related some of
their experiences of the days when the
west waa young and when Red Cloud,
American Horse, Spotted Tall and Standing
Elk were in the tenlth of their power and
glory aa Indian chiefs. James Delaney led
off with an experience at Fort Reno, located
on Powder river, near where the present
town of Buffalo, Wyo., now stands.
"I was detailed on herd guard about half
a mile from the post with a fellow named
Cousins," he related. "Cousins had a pistol
with htm, but I was unarmed. Cousins went
into the post to dinner, but declined to
leave his pistol with me, so the only
weapon I had was a pair of spurs. I was
riding one of the swing mules, on which
was a bell. The herd drifted on out toward
the foothills leisurely, and some time after
Coastns had gone back to the fort I aaw
three or four mounted men coming out of
the foothills from the west, and supposing
them to be couriers from Fort Phil Kenr
ney, I rode out slowly to meet them. In
stead of them coming toward me, they
slowly moved back into the foothills, but
kept In sight. Tbe herd was following me
single file and I happened to look back
toward the timber along Powder river and
noticed five or six more mounted men com
ing from that direction. It was in the
summer of 1866. Just then something hnp
pened. The mounted men In the foothills
started in toward the fort to get between
the post and the herd, riding on the dead
Jump. The party coming up from the
timber started about the same time on a
dead gallop for the herd, and then for the
first time I readied that they were Indians,
I didn't do a thing but turn my mule in
toward the fort, which was in plain view
about a mile and a half distant, and as
luck had it the herd followed me. I clapped
the spurs Into that mule and he went like
the wind, kicking sideways as he ran, with
the herd close behind me. The lookout at
the fort saw something was up and It
wasn't many minutes before a company of
the Second cavalry, under Ueutenant Bingham,-came
tearing out of the fort to save
the herd. In the meanwhile the Indlani
had got into the herd, but couldn't turn it,
One or two of them tried to ride me down,
but my mule waa too fast for them and
the way that old bell dunged was a cau
tion, and tbe rest of the herd folowed the
bell. Well, to make a long story short,
the cavalry company soon came up with
me and the herd, and the Indiana hiked
out In rreat shape.
"Oh, yeB, I was scared, and the herd and
I charged into the opened stockade of the
fort and stampeded the whole garrison. .1
didn't lose a mule."
Dan Finn chuckled to himself for a mo
ment and then broke out with the nuerv
.
"I guesa you fellows never heard of the
big drunk at Fort Fetterrnan in the sum
mer of 1867. It waa great. It .happened
this way: A couple of traders put In, an
appearance at the fort one day and one of
them left the following day with a detach
ment that went up to Fort Reno. His pur
pose was to get permission from the com
manding officer up there to start a ranch
near the fort and aell whisky. After he
had gone, his partner showed up as drunk
aa a lord and took a couple of the' boys
into his confidence. He said they had four
barrels of whisky burled down in La Prele
bottoms, about four miles from Fort Fet
terrnan, and he didn't mind setting them
up to the boys. It soon got noised abroad
in the garrison and the boys started out
to find that buried whisky. They found it.
The result was that camp kettles, can
teens, kegs and anything that would hold
the liquor were gathered up and a gang
of fifteen or twenty boys went down to
tho whisky mine and filled themselves up
and then started back to the fort with a
big supply of the stuff. Well, that drunk
kept up for three or four days. The officers
were powerless to do anything, other than
to send a sober detail down to the whisky
camp and upset the remaining barrels of
the stuff. Well, the guard house was
chock full of drunken men, and finally aa
.aat resort, a crowd of drunks waa
dumped into a big hole that waa about
ten feet square and ten or twelve feet
deep that had been dug for a foundation
for a flag- staff near the guard house. The
worst drunks were huddled In there and
left to sober up. There were a few fights,
but not many, considering the universal
inebriation. I remember the first sergeant
of my company hid a five-gallon keg of
the stuff tn the orderly room stove and
the following morning it waa pretty cold,
so he told' his striker to start a fire in the
stove, forgetting about the keg being In
there. Well, In a few minutes that ira
busted and not only 'blowed' the stove
to places, but knocked out one end of the
barracks, the barracks then being built of
dobles.' The sergeant was 'busted' for
the trick and set to work repairing the
damage, as an additional punishment"

of ten men from Clear fork into Fort Phil

Aside from the regular work coming

many little domestic Jars repaired with

Many little misunderstandings are righted

About noon last Tuesday an express
man Stopped at the Police station and
asked if he might leave a trunk that had
oeen given to him at the Union station
several hours before to deliver at a cer

not find. He said he had spent several
hours trylnr to find the nlara whera tha
baggage should be delivered, but had
given It up aa a bad lob and wanted tn
get the trunk off his hands, so he thought
the police station would be the right plaoe,
which It was, under the circumstances.
He left the amount of his charges and
appeared much relieved when tho trunk
was taken from the wagon.
During the afternoon a woman oaiiad
at the ststion and said she had given an
expressman a trunk at the station and
feared that all was not well with her

She had given the wrong address. The

ment belonged to his daughter, who died
recently, ana before making the deal with
the painter he wanted to be sure n tn ih
standing of the place where the piano
wouia go in tna event of his making; the
iraae. lie had some mlsa-tvlnn aa tn tha
social standing of the place he referred to
and, as his daughter had been the apple of
his eye, he could not bear the thought of
ner piano going to any place that would
not be approved of her were she alive.
captain' Hare assured the man that, so
far as he COUld Sav. the nlaca In mtaatlnn
bore a rood reputation, the only trouble he
ever heard of as occurring there waa on
one occasion when an obstreperous roomer
refused to vacate and th landlady threw
a frying pan at htm, and waa arrested for
assault and battery. ' But aside frnm thia
the plaoe was aa orderly as the average
nouse.
The old man thanked the rantaln ain.
oerely, but did not say whether th piano
wouia cnange hands.
Family In Distress.
Sunday momlnr a mother dnA har four
cnuaren appearea at tne station and aald
ner nusDand had locked his family out In
tne snow, she wanted advice as to what
she should do In the premises. The family
was placed In h charge of Matron An
derson and the husband waa found and
takeh to the station, where he waa put In
tne annex of tha matron's department In
stead of placlnr the man undor amat i
waa thought th wiser course to place him
in wun nis family and let them settle their
differences before they left the matron's
department The wife and children were
neatiy ana comrortably attired and the
man appeared to be one who provided well
for his family. It appeared th wife and
husband had been quarreling and that the
man naa oeen drinking some. Anyway, th
methods employed by the officials at the
ponce station in this instance proved effec
tlve, as during Sunday afternoon tha An
meatlc clouds were seen to disrra and
the love light again brighten the eyes of
me nusriana ana wire. The end Justified
the means and the family was uni t,nn.
without the publicity of arrest and the
