A. feibutt DltPER, .NOT WiOtR THINKING, NEEDED lability of Modern " Thonaht ta Bo Ualned Only By Anchorage of the Sonl in Divine 1 'bines. "The socrat of the power of thought Is to All the mlnrls with things so good, and pure and ho!y that there will be no room for the other thing. so that when the evil spirit comes, he will And no place by which he may enter." Thus spoke Rev. J. Addlsnn Belbert, pastor of the Old First church at Kansas City, In a sermon Sunday morning at St. Mary's Avenue Congregational church on "Trio Power of Thought.' Mr. Belbert Illustrated by relating the supposed experi ences of air evil spirit which attempted to oorrupt three persons, one alter another, and was repulsed in eash case. First he came to a young man trowing In a Held, ar.d seeing he was a man likely to become a leader In the world's nfTnlrs, approached him In hope of Implanting In his mind an evil thought, which should finally be his own destruction and the means of the destruction of many of his comrades. Hear ing '.he young man singing the words of a psalm, the evil spirit despaired of ac complishing anything, and passed on. Next lie saw a Rlrl walking down the road, In her hand something he supposed was a school book, "if I can put one thought In her mind,", he wild to himself, "I shall be able to corrupt her and her girl friends, and the young men who are thler acqualnt nnces." So he walked up softly behind the irlrl, only to And she was reading from the Bible, and had the book open at one of the psalms which speaks of Christ as the safe guard of young women. Psalms Mention Aa-nlnst Evil. Ho passed the girl and the school house nnd came to tho church, finding there what ho thought was his best chance. In the manse by the sliffof the church, the old minister, who had served the same con gregation for thirty yesrs, lay dying. "I cannot hope to do much with his life so far spent," he said, "but if I can only Implnnt the seed of doubt In the dying hour, his people shalt know of It, and I can undo all he has done In these thirty years." Finding his way unseen Into the house, he saw the old man reading the Twenty-third psalm, "The Jjnrd Is my Bhepherd." "Then the evil spirit," said the speaker, "took a hurried flight far away from the school house, and entered the mind of an Idle mini." "We do not need wiser thought," said Mr. Belbert, further, after telling the story of tho railway and telegraph and other rapidly increasing modern conveniences the remit of man's thought. "What we need is a deeper thought Into the mysteries of Jesus. Our thought Is wide enough now. It hns widened out until, perhaps. It Is flat. What we need now in thought Is nn anchorage of the soul In divine things, that when tho storms come we shall not be swept away." ARMY HEWS ARD 6QSSIP. CAIf !"OT EXnillK WITHOl'T GOD Hatlons nnd Men Most Peek Substance In Christianity "A prosperous nation that has forgotten Ood cannot endure," said Rev. J. Ran dolph Smith at Trinity Methodist Fplscopal church Buiidsy morning. "God always came with vengeance and to recompense. It Is the Bubstancie nnd not the shadow that is the true foundation of Christianity. The mirage of worldllness may allure, but tn follow It means destruction. We should seek Instead of the mlrnge the living water. Human lire without Christ IS like a sandy desert and Is but the mockery of the mirage i and i In it there is no' life-giving waters. We may be entranced with the Iridescent beauty of the desert mirage, but the sub stance is wanting, II may be sweet In ap pearance, but It is bitter to life. It Is a mockery and the genius of disappointment. "Vain have been the efforts of mnn to describe the true world. I defy Christians to find In mere externnls a definition for worlds. Labels wear out and writing be comes Indistinct. Worldllness Is not a thing, but a spirit.' It is the attitude of the soul toward Ood In dealing In every thing of life. If your Ideas cause you to deflect In tho least from God you are lost. The man who cannot stand the Christianity of the Sermon on the Mount Is deficient in Christianity. The essence of Christianity la repentance. 'God ennnot find a wanderer, but He can hear the cry of a penitent soul. The scriptures use water as the symbol of God. The spring of Christ's love 'does for humanity what water doe for the desert, only a thousand times more. Christ Is the river of God. He Is the never falling spring of all life, for He has said, 'I am the Water of Life.' " DEATH RECORD. ' John llowf Fnnerul.

In the presence of nearly every member of the congregation the cornerstone for the new St. Mark' Lutheran church wa laid Sunday afternoon, the scorching un appar ently not Interfering the least with sest In the proceedings. The pastor. Rev. L. Groh, who haa had the charge ten year, waa assisted by a number of other clergy men In the exercises, which were simple. The sermon was preached by Rev. J. E. Hummoh of Kountse Memorial church. St. Mark's church wa organised August 1, 18X6, and has been quarteded In a small frame structure at Twenty-first and Bur- dette streets since. The new edifice will be of brick, situated at Twentieth and Burdette street, southeast corner, and will cost omoplete 112,000. It will have a seat ing capacity of 300 and will be dedicated about Christmas time. The cornerstone exercise were opened by music and serlpttre reading by Rev. M. C. Melick. Prayer wa offered by Rev. O. W. Snyder. Pastor Groh resd a brief history of the church, detailing It various phases and experiences. In hi discourse Rev. Mr. Hummon said: Rev. Mr. Mammon's Discourse. 'Tn the words of the scripture Jesus Christ himself is the chief cornerstone. In building it is Important that we build well. Whether the structure is material or otherwise the supremely Important thing Is the foundation. This Is a true of spiritual structures. There must be a solid, unchangeable, Inflexible foundation whether the house be physical, spiritual or mental. "We hav$ met to lay the cornerstone of a new building, a material structure It is true,- and yet a place for spiritual exercise and spiritual feeding a house to which God's people will go for manna and for communion with him. This cornerstone Is meant to symbolize the Invisible, spiritual cornerstones being laid in the hearts of men. As the corner stone Is the foundation so every Christian rests upon Jesus Christ, who is Indispens able in the highest, noblest and best thing of human character. Without Christ the Bible Is meaningless, the world a wilder ness and heaven Itself becomes tarnished. Christ Is absolutely essential to Christian life and character. Take ChriA away and Christianity Is Impossible. Happy 1 the man who can say that his hope 1 based on Jesus Christ and Christ alone. 1'nlfylnK Force. "This foundation Is a unifying force. There may be differences of organization or administration but there Is the same Lord. There may be differences of opera tion but It I the same Christ. If you are founded on the same Christ and believe in the same Jesus we are one In union with Christ." The pastor then read the list of the usual articles placed In the stone and pre sided at the swinging of the stone In place with Invocation and blessing. The doxology and bcnedlotlon followed.

'"' flARRIMAN GETS NEW ROAD FaU of 8b Paul to 8outhirn Pad Bo it Confirmed, STANDARD OIL MAGNATE AIDS IN DEAL Interest That Blocked HIM In , Effort to Get Road Year Aro Assist th I'nloa Paelgo Man. The reported sale of tk Chicago, Mil waukee A St. Paul railroad to E. H. Hani man through the medium of the Southern Paclfio has been all but officially confirmed In New York commercial Interests. The deal will, when the St. Paul road 1 ex tended to the coast, give Harrlmsn a north western as well a central and southern outlet to the Pacific coast. It Is stated that the deal tn no way affect the proposal to build the St. Paul on to the coast Rumor that the Union Pacific magnate had been trying to get control of the St, Paul have been circulating for some time, Definite Information on the subject has Just been given out in New York. The plan was held up. It Is stated, by the refusal of some of the directors of the St. Paul to give their consent, but now It Is declared the Standard Oil Interests repre sented by William Rockefeller have sided In with the deal, making It a sure go. There are two methods of accomplishing the result and which of the two haa been adopted Is not announced. One la the leas, lng of the road to the Southern Pacific and the other Involves the sale of a controlling Interest In the stock outright to the South ern Pacific. The term of the latter proposi tion are said to be the exchange of 100 share of the Southern Paclflio preferred stock and $10,000 cash for each 100 share of 8t. Paul common stock and the exchange of 100 shares of Southern Pacific preferred and 112,600 cash for each 100 shares of St. Paul preferred. Rockefeller Fnvored tho Deal. It Is understood Mr. Rockefeller preferred the latter proposition, but some cf th other stockholders objected to the transfer of the road and favor the leasing proposition. It Is understood that Rockefeller and some" of hi close associate will sell their stock oil the above basis. The securing by the Hartiman lntererts of a controlling Interest In the St. Paul would Involve the purchase of at least VA 000,000 of the stock, a there Is a little over $107,000,000 out. The Southern Pacific haa In Its treasury enough preferred to consum mate the deal, as $60,000,000 of preferred stock remains unissued. The sale of the St Paul to Harriman, It Is said, will do a great deal to clear up the western railroad atmosphere, as the road haa been a bone of contention among rival magnates for a number of year. Soma time ago J. J. Hill tried to get possession of It but was blocked, it Is asserted, by the Rockefeller Interests. The original intent Is said to have been to secure the road through the Union Pacific, but this was found to be In violation of the federal Interstate commerce act The acquisition of the road will make a large addition to the Harriman system. The Union Pacific operates 6,657 mile of road, the Southern Paclfio 8,384 miles, the Illinois Central 4,1174 mile and the St. Paul 6.911 miles, a total of 26,126 mile under Harri man' control. fl3.HO to St. PanI and Minneapolis and ' Retsrs From Omaha, via Chicago Great Western Railway.
