The Shakppearcan readings which are being given In Plymouth Church by Mr. George Riddle, of Boston, for the benefit of the Indianapolis free kindergartens are attracting the attention and receiving the liberal patronage they deserve. Not merely la the object of the series of entertainments most worthy, but Mr. Riddle is really giving a performance ot the greatest merit and charm. In his reading of "Hamlet" last night he did many remarkable things, not the least of which was the modulation of his voice Into two separate and perfectly distinct types of old men's voicesIn givins the lines attributed to Polonius and those of the old grave digger. Portions of the play In which Mr. Riddle Lsplayed rare discrimination and evidence of profound study of the, great dramatist -r ere the colloquy between Hamlet and his father's ghost, the famous betrayal of the king's secret, the scene In the queen's closet, the dialogue with the grave digger, the tribute to Yorick and the final duel and poisoning scene. Lovers of the Bard of Avon would do well to attend these readings, since in them they will discover anew the delightful truth that Shakspearu opened a hitherto unknown vein of English, the richness of whosa yield has never since been equaled. This afternoon at 3 o'clock Mr. Riddle will give "The Merchant of Venice' and on the evenings of Tuesday and Thursday and In the afternoon of Saturday next week he will read respectively "King Henry V," Twelfth Night." and The Tempest." The reading of "King Henry V" will doubtles.s attract more than ordinary attention on account of Mr. IUchard Manslield's recent great success In a revival of that play. Zoo Opens To-Day. The Zoo will present for exhibition today a group of young animals that are entirely new species to the animal world. Director General Bostock has not yet decided on a name for them. The strange cubs were born at the Zoo early yesterday morning. The hour of opening will be 11 o'clock this morning, and there wlil be continuous exhibitions, lectures and performances until 11 p. m., and this will be the programme every day. At 4:30 y. ra. and 10:30 p. m. the feeding of the wild beasts will take place. .Nearly two liors-es are required every day, besides the hay, corn, oats, etc. Prof. II. U. Hopkins, of world's fair fame, has been engaged to introduce the acts and lecture on the animals and trainers. The general admission Is 23 cents for adults and 15 cents for children. Season tickets, for adults and U for children. All tickets for sale at Huder's drug store. Kotes of the Stage. To-night ends the engagement of the Royal Burlesquers at the EmplreTheater. XXX The feature of Madame Modjeska's fareWell tour of the United States this season Is ibe magnificent production of Shakrpeare's historical tragedy, "King John," with which she has been provided by her managers, Vv'agenhals & Kemper. Mme. Modjeska will be Feen at 1-Jnglishs Opera House nr. Lady Constance in "King John" Wednesday night, Nov. 7. XXX Mr. Ford and Miss Izette, the new actors engaged to replace Mr. Frohoft and Miss Gail In the Grand Stock Company, will arrive In the city to-day. to begin rehearsals of the play to be produced election week at the Grand. The now actors come here direct from the Grand Opera House, Memphi?. Tenn.. where they have been members of the Hopkins. Stock Company. xxx A Saturday matinee at English's Is a sufficient rarity at this time to be a novelty by itself, but when the performance Is to be given by a high-class organization such as Primrose & Dockstader's Mlnntrcls extraordinary Interest attaches to the event. The advance sale for this attraction has been so large that there ran be little doubt that the audiences, both this afternoon and to-nIght, will beof plcaflng proportions. xxx Messrs. Dickson and Talbott were greatly surprised and disturbed a short time ago j tilv0 U'Afil that T? M c: o PnnttTan probably not appear at the Park election week with Hyde's Comedians and Helene Mora. They proceeded at once to enter into negotiations looking to the securing of Miss Cnghlan's presence with the comyany. Yesterday they were In receipt of positive assurance that Miss Coghlan will be at the Park the entire week beginning Nov. 5. XXX The Grand stock company has had a strong test of its ability to produce comedies adequately this week, since the bill has been double, consisting of two typical English humorous plays of the old rchoA-"Box and Cox" and "Still Waters Run Deep." Stage Director Alfred Fisher ha done triple duty the entire week, managing the stage and playing parts In the two comedies, and has acquitted himself with great credit. The matinee this afternoon and to-night's performance will close a successful week. xxx 'The Flaming Arrow," now at the Park, Is a border melodrama and exploits Indians and cowboys, but withal It U one of the most rational plays of the kind seen here In a long time. The scenery employed in the production Is of surprising richness and r.-'Iellty to the locale of the play. In the third act, in which an Indian council is held, there Is a remarkably realistic reproduction of a ramp tire, with flames leaping up apparently In the most natural manner. This illusion la very cleverly obtained by a current of air blowing from beneath the stair RKint a atrip of ribbon which is tireUded unevenly. The color of tlirce ii,
of course, produced by a red electric light. Two performances to-day will close the engagement of Oo-Won-Go-Mohawk. the celebrated Indian actress, in this tine melodrama. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY.

We should like to believe Mr. Bryan to be sincere in all he says, but It is Impossible to listen to him and not be convinced that his chief effort Is directed to obtaining votes. Get votes, honestly, if possible, but get votes, would seem to describe his method.

(CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) were burnet. and it was only when completely tired out that the many groups broke up and after a while went home. A few of the para de rs Mopped for a moment or two to hear the spellbinders, and some of the earlier arrivals tried to get into the garden. Very few succeeded, as the big meeting place was filled to its capacity long before. i Deputy Chief Cortright and the five inspectors who worked with him had 1,000 policemen about Madison square and In the garden. They kept the crowd under perfect control from the outset. A way was kept open from the hotel up Fifth avenue and under the arch at Twenty-sixth street. The ieople were kept back to the curb. Governor Roosevelt came out of the hotel at 7:50 o'clock and got In his carriage. He was recognized at once, and until he got Into the garden and for some minutes afterward he was cheered. lie stood nearly all the way to the garden and bowed to the crowd. The Governor reached Madison-square Garden at 7:58 o'clock. The audience stood waving flags and cheering when the Governor appeared. Bands were playing hard to make their music heard. There was a great tumult. Led by Secretary Manchester, the party went to the speaker's stand. The Governor followed and back of him came Senator Piatt. Others were Gen. F. V. Greene, Senator Scott. Frederick K. Gibbs and J. II. Manley. When the Governor got to his place on the front of the stand the applause was deafening. General Greene tried to get order, but the crowd cheered the louder. The Governor stood quietly beside the chairman. The applause lasted nine minutes. General Greene Introduced the Governor as the strongest advocate of the administration's policy in the Philippines. Then he said: 'Ten days ago Mr. Bryan stood In this hall and poke for nearly an hour without any Intelligible Idea of what course he would pursue if elected President. He displayed the unworthy arts of the clap-trap mob orator; he did ell in his power to create dissatisfaction, to stir up animosity and strife; to array one portion of the community against another; but on the great question of the hour, namely, the preservation of sound money, he was absolutely silent. This meeting to-night is called to greet the Republican candidate for Vice President. No one ever accused him of dodging any issue, or of failing to say clearly what his beliefs and opinions are. He will not hesitate to express them tonight. I have the honor to introduce Theodore Roosevelt." COL. ROOSEVELT'S SPEECH. Interruptions by People "Who Wanted ( Crokpr h 1 Hrvnn Snnkril.' Another ovation followed as the Governor raised his hand to command attention. He began at his address with the words "My fellow-Americans." He referred to Mr. Bryan's visit to the State and the reception prepared by Tammany Hall, and the audience groaned and hissed. - "Good for you, Teddy, soak it to 'em!" yelled a man away up high. Many like exclamations came from other parts of the garden. Colonel Roosevelt's reference to Mr. Croker's famous remark about working for his own pockets all the time brought forth the cry, "You're right, Teddy!" Governor Roosevelt ridiculed Colonel Bryan's attitude on every public question. "Sail Into, him; give him the mischief 1" roared a man. The audience kept up Incessant cheering. The famous baseball crank who Is known as "Well Well" had a seat upstairs, and, of course, he was much in evidence. The Governor took up militarism. He caused much laughter when he told of the "danger of eighty-slx-one-hundredths of a man to every 1,000 of our population." In answer to Mr. Bryan's remark that the soldiers "walk about in Idleness" the Governor said: "General Lawton no longer walks about In idleness," and the crowd cheered. Governor Roosevelt bejan his address by saying that he was proud of being on the same platform as ex-Secretary Fairchild, for he said: "Wherever I have been in this campaign I have had with me man after man. who, though a lifelong Democrat, declined to follow his party when that party fell under leadership that was false to all the earlier traditions of the party; when that party fell under leadership that sought to lead it into the path of national dishonor at home and abroad, and old soldiers like General Bragg, of Wisconsin; gallant Dan Sickles, Franz SIgel, here in New York, and their no les3 gallant opponent's who wore the gray, like General Buckner, Gen. Basil Duke, General Russell, In Virginia and Kentucky, stand with us now, because the Spanish war stamped out the last lingering vestige of division in this country and left us in fact as well as In name, a reunited nation. And the valiant men who wore the blue and the no less valiant men who wore the gray, naturally come with us when we stand for the honesty of our people at home and against the degradation of the flag abroad." BRYAN AND CROKER. On the subject of Mr. Bryan and Mr. Croker, the Governor said: "Mr. Bryan comes to this State as the guest of Mr. Croker. Mr. Bryan comes to this State pleading loyalty to the memory of Jefferson and associating with Mr. Croker. Jefferson's statement was that the whole art of government consisted in being honest. Mr. Croker's gloss upon that statement is that he is in politics for his pocket every time. I am not slandering Mr. Croker, I am merely quoting him. In Andrew Jackson's day Democracy spelled hard money, expansion and the honor of the flag. And who have the right to represent Andrew Jackson nowthe men who stand for the dishonor of the flag, for the debasement of the currency, for contraction of our national limits? No. The party that stands for an honest dollar; the party that stands for keeping the flag hoisted in the Philippines, as it shall be kept." Governor Roosevelt, then plunged Into the issues of the campaign, starting out with free silver and following the lines of his many addresses on this subject. He then touched on the present prosperity of the country and how Mr. Bryan's prophecies regarding the gold standard had turned out to be wrong and condemning him for raising a feeling of envy in the minds of the working class against the capitalists. On this point he said: "No greater evils, my fellow-countrymen, can be done In this nation of our's than to teach any group of Americans that their attitude should be one of sullen hatred and distrust to their fellows. That teaching means to nullify the work of a century and a quarter of statesmanship which have built up our government here. Before our time there had been so-called republics in which rich oppressed the poor; there had been so-called republics in which the poor plundered the rich. It has been our boast that in this great Republic each man stands on his rights as a man, demanding no more than his rights and being refused no chance to receive their rights." A SHADOWY GHOST. Getting down to imperialism, the Governor said: "Our opponents talk of the dangers of imperialism. There is but one danger to free institutions in this country, and that would be by the general prevalence of the doctrines the Feeds of which Mr. Bryan has been sowing. Only in that way will there ever be chance of losing the liberty that we have Inherited from those who went iefore us. And now Mr. Bryan asks us to give up prosperity; he asks us to dishonor our flag; he asks us to give up our orderly liberty under the law. For what? For the sake of the most shadowy ghost that ever was raised to frighten political childrenthe ghost of militarism. Militarism? Here in this building a week ago Mr. Bryan repeated what he ether knows or ought to know to be an absolute slander when he said that our little army had been created with the purpose of putting it Into forts to overawe the workingmen of our great cities. Gentlemen, there are 65,000 regular soldiers in the United States. The Greater New York would be entitled, according to population, to about 2.500 regular sol tiers less than a third of the police in the city. "Five years ago, when I was police commissioner I understand that several of my fellow-citizens remember the fact when I was police commissioner I asked for and obtained an increase of 2.0OO members of the force for the present borough of Manhattan alone. I asked for and obtained without a word of protest or a thought from any one that his liberties were to be endangered, a much larger body of men than would have been obtained now by giving the borough of Manhattan its pro
portional share of the regular army, and no human being has any right to feel afraid of those soldiers unless he is afraid of the police." The Governor then reviewed the attitude rf the. oldier in the Spanish war. eulogizing the volunteer, as he has many times In his speeches. After appealing to the audience to support the Republican party, Governor Roosevelt concluded his address by Introducing ex-Senator, Fairchild in the following words: "It is not alone Republicans who are determined that no man of Bryan's characteristics, or representing the disorder which he stands for, shall be President of the United States. Thousands of Democrats, who believe in the maintenance of law and order, In honesty in finance, and in the independence of the Judiciary, will this year vote for McKinley. For, however much they may have differed from Republicans in the past, or may differ from them on some issues now, yet they clearly see their duty In the face of such a disaster as would result in the elevation of Bryan, and they desire to make his defeat so decisive that the menace to the business of the country involved In Bryan's recurring candidacy may be forever removed. No one Is better qualified to speak for the sound-money Democrats of this great financial center than the secretary of the treasury In Mr. Cleveland's first administration."
MR. FAIRCUILD'S ADDRESS. Eminent Democrat Telia "Why He la Opposed to XV. J. Mrymi. An exodus from the garden began at the close of the Governor's address. The noise almost drowned the voice of ex-Secretary Fairchild, the next speaker. He could not be heard fifty feet distant. Partial order was secured and he finished with little applause except at the close. A lot of young men from the College of the city of New York at this point insisted on calling for "three cheers for Governor Roosevelt," and the cheers were given with much enthusiasm. In opening, Mr. Fairchild said that he would vote for the Republican candidate because "I have sat at the feet and by the side of all the men who have Illumined tho name of Democracy during the last fifty years. I think that I know the doctrines and teachings of all the great Democrats from the beginning until now, and by the precept' and example of each and all of them, I am compelled to do my utmost to stand against the preposterous Ideas of the present Democratic candidate fcr President Not only does all of this tradition and example, as well as my political training, but also my mature sense lead me to seek the defeat of the so-called Democratic party In this election." Mr. Fairchild then -turned to the money question and said among other things: 'The currency question was thoroughly discussed four years ago and the people decided that the soundest, most stable, most efficient standard of value that the world could give was that which the United States must keep. I say keep, because tho wisdom of the fathers give it to us, and their children thus far have not departed therefrom. That wise decision of 1S96 made possible the wonderful industrial and business advance of the last four years. Had the decision been the other way, we would now be coming to this election a wan and weary people, far behind the other peoples of the world, instead of in the very forefront of them, as we are. We can throw all of this away, If we want to. We are invited to by the Democratic party and by its candidate, and by a few other men, most of them very good men, but men who, I think, have lost all sense of proportion. Do we want to do this? Is there anything In any question now before us that calls for all this awful sacrifice? Is there any reason why millions of us should, in a day," be hurled from competence and well-being to cruel want and misery?" Getting to the subject of trusts Mr. Fairchild said: 'Those business concentrations and combinations are not caused by mere willfulness. ' They are too numerous and too universal. There must be some cause operating over the whole world. In my Judgment this Is quick transportation and communication. -When we had no use of steam or electricity business had to be scattered; there Were no department stores in those days. If I have named the thing that makes possible business combination and concentration, then there Is a sure cure for it, a cure that is easily within the power of the government. Enact a law forbidding the use of steam and electricity. Combinations will break up quickly enough then, and if they are destroying the independence of the Individual, that mischief will be stopped. I know of no other remedy. I have never heard or read of any other. But think of the democracy of it all of the paternalism. Think of legislating practically to forbid men from doing what reason and experience teaches them it Is best to do, to forbid the great masses of the people Irom buying and selling In the way they rind most advantageous in order that a few, comparatively, may not be disturbed In their employment and obliged to use their wits and energy when great natural forces are moving society onward and, let us hope, as I believe, upward. I am against a protective tariff. As a Democrat I have opposed it. but the monstrous propositions, both as to money and business, of this Democracy of to-day many times outdo the interference with man's natural rights that I have believed to be the great offense of a protective tariff. Every combination (why not every business?), to prove what it is worth, to prove that It has no monopolistic tendencies, to prove a negative before it can get a license to do business outside of its own State? Not a cheese factory or creamery could get such a license, for they have monopolistic tendencies. Every business has." The last question Mr. Fairchild discussed was the Philippines and on this he said: "Does the situation In the Philippine islands call for a change of administration at the expense of the suffering of which I have spoken. A calm view of this whole subject convinces me that there has been in some quarters a degree of feeling and a violence of expression not Justified by facts, and also that nothing in the record of the Democratic party in connection herewith justifies the thought of turning to it for wise treatment of this difficult question." a oTiiiin speeches. Remark of 11. D. Odell, Ex-Governor Illnck nnd J. IC. Richards. B. I. Odell, Jr.. candidate for Governor of New York, followed Mr. Fairchild, accusing Mr. Bryan of concealing the main issue of the campaign the financial questionbehind expansion, Imperialism, militarism and trusts. He said In part: "No sophistry, no pretense can hide this great Issue from the American people. Shall we continue along honest lines? Shall we continue to insure the value of every dollar up to the full issue of 100 cents or shall we accept a false doctrine and bind ourselves to a dollar that does not possess the value It purports to represent? McKinley represents honesty; Bryan repudiation and dishonesty. Mr. Bryan has been going through this State "decrying everything without offering any sensible remedy for the evils he pretends to have discovered." Former Governor Black, the next speaker, attacked the record of the Democratic party regarding the colored race and thought that the hand that has tlegraded the negro was now seeking to stultify the Constitution to protect the Filipino savage, and continuing said: "The Philippine islands will not be surrendered upon the demand of enemies, even at home or abroad, and the rights of the Southern negro will never be relinquished until the last spark of independence has been quenched and the last lantern has been hung out in the last belfry." Mr. Black contended that the Democratic cry of "imperialism" was simply a' mask for the Democrats to get control of the government and put in force free trade and free silver. The last address of the evening at the garden was delivered by John K. Richards, solicitor general of the United States. IIa devoted the first part cf his address to an argument designed to show that President McKinley was constitutionally right in his investment of the Philippine question. Hi said the real Issue in this campaign which does vitally affect the preservation of our constitutional form of representative government wus the attitude of the Democrats In reaffirming the Chicago platform. On this point he said: "More revolutionary doctrines were never promulgated by a great political party. They assailed the sovereignty of the Union, the power and duty of the President to execute the laws; they attacked the Independence of the Judiciary; the power and duty of the courts by a time-honored writ. to protect persons and property; they threatened the very Integrity of the Supreme Court itself.

Cr SIXDAY SCHOOL LESSON .OTES. Oct. 2S llHKIi Lake xr, 11-21 The Prodigal Son. In the remarkable trio of parables, "The Lost Coin." "The Lost Sheep," and "The Lost Son." there is a striking progression. It Is from the Inanimate to the animate from the- animate to the human. A son in a noble and wealthy family, chafing under parental restraint, or having exhausted local means of dissipation, and sighing for fresh fields Of VOluptUOUS Conquest, Inconsiderately requests an ante-mortem division of the estate. The indulgent father make It. Perhaps he has no recourse; parental authority Is at an end. The son's heart is callous to tha arpeal of love; sin has indurated him. The guileless youth, the father's pride and Joy, has grown the gruff, defiant rebel. The amenities of home are insufferable. In the shortest time possible the Infatuated youth tucked the sparkling gems and golden bars, his patrimony in portable form, easily convertible Into coin of any country, in the pockets of a money belt, and. strapping it about his rerson. he went abroad perhaps without even a ceremonious farewell. He wasted his substance. He tossed It in the air (as per derivative), as the farmer doe his wheat when he will separate it from the chaff. He lived dissolutely. He was Insalvable (as ptr derivative) while his infatuation lasted. Tho coincidence of the devoured (literally) patrimony and the universal and extreme famine puts a pathetic touch to the sorry plight of the dissolute rpendthrlft. He was left behind (as per derivative) in tha race. He never. In spite of his Infatuated effort and extravagance, so much as reached the glittering goal of his wanton ambition. The gay reveling party that kept him company while his means held out, swept past him thanklessly and disdainfully when his once plethoric purse was at last empty. Ho awoke as from a dream alone! penniless! With the pertinacity of despair he glued (literally) himself to a foreign land-owner, whom, in his prosperity, he would have dubbed a "Gentile dog"with whom he would have had no intercourse, much less receive a favor from him. In his despair he cleaves to the foreigner so tenaciously that he cannot be shaken off. A superlatively disgusting and degrading task is given him offensive to all the senses, repugnant to all the Ideas of ceremonial cleanliness Instilled In his mind from boyhood. So sharp were the pangs of hunger that he kept coveting the swine their feed the locust peds he threw down before them. What humiliation, sorrow, despair are compressed in the half dozen words "No man gave unto Him!" At last the hypnotic spell of ain is broken. Self-consciousness, self-control are regained. Memory paints the ancestral home. The flown blessing brightens. What abundance, comfort, care, there extends to the most abject menial! The veriest scullion has such a superabundance that he can pose as a benefactor before the tramp. "I will!" What a battle royal haa preceded and made possible these tallsmanlc words! Fear, shame, pride, have been met and conquered. "I have sinned" Is the correlate of "I will arise." Confession absolute and frank, without apology or plea in abatement, shall be made. The penalty and consequences cf apostasy, disinheritance, servitude Instead of sonship. shall be assumed without a syllable of complaint. It Is done. But how different the sequel from that whjch the prodigal anticipated! lie is met long before he can reach the door where he expected to make his confession and prefer his modest request. The father's compassion, how admirable! Kiss of reconciliation, how sweet! The first robe, richly dyed and embroidered, Is cast about tha bar and sunburnt shoulders. The signet of rank Is placed upon the wan finger. Bare feet, mark cf servitude, are shod with the sandals of a free man. New follows the Joyous banquet. The murmuring Pharisees cannot but see themselves portrayed in the elder son, with his illformed, ill-natured protest. The true Messiah had come to heal the sick, raise the dead, find the lost. Will the hale, the unstrayed, those who do not need his kindly offices, begrudge them to their brothers, whose plight is so pitiable and desperate? The climax is reached, tho plea unanswerable. THE STUDY LAMP. The prodigal, with streaming eyes. From folly Just awake Reviews his wanderings with surprise; His heart begins to break. "With deep repentance, I'll return, And seek my father's face; Unworthy to be called a son. Iii ask a servant's place." Far off the father saw him move. In pensive silence mourn. And quickly ran, with arms of love. To welcome his return. Lydia H. Sigourney. The primary use of the parable of the prodigal son must not be lost sight of in its evangelical and modern applications. By it Jesus sought to Justify his kindly and familiar bearing toward publicans and sinners, at which the Pharisees and scribes were so outraged. He showed the veriest renegade of Israel as still the object of divine compassion, his restoration posslb!e-a thing he earnestly sought. In its universal, gospel application, this "pearl o? parables" pictures sin as a revolt against a beneficent Heavenly Father, whose law is right, and Just, and good. Here Is mirrored the freedom of the will. The ton has his own way. He is not let or hindered, except by the pleadings of love and its faithful warnings. The folly of sin has no more startling exemplification. True as startling; drawn to lifo. How swift the "decensus Averno!" How soon the fool and his money are parted! How Irrevocable the last estate! Remediless! In the mire with swine! Who shall ever number the sinners to whom this parable has been the "open sesame" to a Instantly denounced by serious-minded citiaens of whatever party us a dangerous assault upon our form of government Itself." Mr. Richard then charged the Democrats with having in view to pack the Supreme Court and after eulogizing the founder? of the government for their efforts to protect this court, ho said: "But the father?, whether wisely or not, failed to fix deftnitly the number of members of the court. They left this to Congress. And thus a way was left to degrade and destroy the court If the people ever put in power men vicious enough to use it. Woe to the country when that court is dragged down? Americans who value the inestimable privileges the Constitution secures will see n it now and hereafter that no President and no party is put in power which openly threatens to degrade or destroy this final citadel of liberty. Justice, of security under the law." Mr. Richards-was interrupted by a club of Rough Riders who marched in with a band at the head and bringing with them a big crowd from the street and all yelling for "Teddy." The Governor was still on thep latform and at last arose and stepped to the edge. He held up his hand for silence and In less than a minute a pin might have been heard to drop. "Ladles and gentlemen." he began, "this building seems to be filled with a new audience. Fellow-Americans, I want to say to you that I am gratified. I have finished my speech. I am, however, going to say Just one word more. Mr. Bryan is in doubt about the paramount Issue. I will tell you what it Is. The paramount Issue is to beat Brynnism In the Nation and Crokerism in the State." At this point the Rough Riders and other organizations crowded into the garden. A dozen bands were playing at one time and Governor Roosevelt seemed to enjoy the confusion and uproar. When order was restored. Governor Roosevelt resumed: "Now gentlemen In closing, I am going to ask that each of you show by his works the faith that is within you. And now, we shall close the speaking and see the passage of these organizations. And in closing I am going to ask you to join with me in three cheers for President McKinley and Mr. Odell." The cheers were given in a way that made the walls of the garden vibrate. When Governor Roosevelt came out of the garden he drove to his hotel, and from that to the residence of Douglas Robinson, hir. brother-in-law. IX THE STATE. Roosevelt's Speeches Before Startlufr for v York. NEW YORK, Oct. 26.

new lifer Dieted be the day in which It was tpoken! "I will arise!" "Father. I have sinned'." The Heavenly Father meets the returning prodigal In the way. "Lost!" "Dead!" Here is no minifying of the prodigal's fallen State. Lost to God; lost to heaven; dt-ad in trespass and sin! The far country is not a matter of geography. It Is expressive of estrangement, of alienatloa from God. The prodigal's theory was bad, though it showed well the strength of hit compunction. It would be impossible for him to ever be his father's hired servant. He Is son or nothing. "Sinned heaven-high and In thy sight." Here the penitent is strictly orthodox. The turpitude of sin consists In this, that It la done agaln.-t God. Judah's penitent king knew this when he cried, "Against Thee Thee only, havo I sinned!" With this truth Joseph armed himself when he cried, "How can I commit this sin against my God?" Solomon Is the example for all time of the unsatisfying nature of sin. He "Drank every cup of Joy, heard every trump Of fame; drank early, deeply drank; drank draughts That common millions might have quenched; then died Of thirst, because there was no more to drink."

What Save America. Henry Clay Trumbull, one of the brightest mind3 of our day, the editor of the Sunday School Times, which Is world-wide in its circulation, says "America has been practically saved to Christianity and the religion of the Bible by the Sunday school." This Is a great testimony, and It Is undoubtedly true. The Sunday school is the only school where the Bible is the texttook. The international convention, with its auxiliaries In every State and province, anü these In turn with their auxiliaries in counties, townships and cities as far as practicable, form a great network of conventions, which are stronger in their power than all physical force to advance morality and righteousness. Mr. Marlon Lawrence, the general secretary of the International convention, at Toledo, O., will be pleased to furnish printed matter explaining the international Sunday school work. CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR. Topic for Oct. 28 1 Do Not Worryw Mntt. Tl, 25-34. The parable of the fowls of the air! The parable of the lilies of the field! The parable of all nature, animate and Inanimate, save man alone! Man has been defined as the cooking animal, the laughing animal, the animal that wanes erect and looks up into the face of heaven. Man la more truly defined as the worrying animal. No other part ot God's creation take anxious thought for the future. But we! If it is fair, we worry for fear of rain. If we are prosperous, we anticipate & reVerse. If we have friends, we are anxious lest we may offend them. We fill our day with needless frets. , Yes, with needless frets, because it was never needful to worry. The thing we dread either will happen or It won't. If it will, worry but makes it heavier. If it won't, worry is foolish and vain. A prudent preparation for a storm is one thing, but the anticipatory darkening of your day Is quite another. Buy an umbrella, if you will, but do not carry it over your head In the sunshine. Worry is always a weakness. It takes strength to worry. "It is not work that kills, but worry," is a common saying, verified in thousands of lives every year. Each worry registers itself against you in God's book of life, in a less healthy pulse, in diminished weight, in less stable nerves, in less obedient muscles. In the most matter-of-fact and visible ways you are less of a man every time you worry, further from life and nearer to death. If, as has been truly said, every laugh draws a nail out of your coffin, every worry drives It back again and clinches it. And not only Is worry a physical Injury, but It Is a mental loss. As worry is essentially illogical, it weakens a man's reasoning powers. As God never worries, to worry Is largely to destroy our apprehension' of divine things. No one would trust himself to balance a set of books while suffering with a severe fever; and worry la a fever. It has all of a fever's Incoherence and raving. Let no one expect to think clearly while feeling gloomy, to make astronomical observations through a mile of fog. Finally, this worry, which Is such an Injury to body and mind, is the very death of the soul. That Is because it Is treason to God, as much as faith la loyalty to God. "Do not worry." Chrltt said. "Do not let your heart be troubled. Ye ttlleve In God. Believe also in Me." The presence or absence of worry Is one of the surest, as it Is one of the most delicate, tests of our belief in Christ. Do we actually believe that "all things work together for good to them that love God?" Then we shall not worry; nay, we cannot worry. ny more than a trustful little chll.'i can worry while he has hold of his father's hand. AMOS R. WELLS. run to New York was made at Amsterdam. For the few minutes that he talked. Governor Roosevelt took up the trust problem with some local application, calling the attention of his auditors to Mr. Bran's statement that he would remove the tariff from all articles manufactured in this county by so-called trust-?. There are large carpet manufactories at Amsterdam, and the Governor asserted that if Mr. Hryan's theory might be put In practice, while.it might result In the destruction of the trust, it would also result in throwing all of Ihe workers out of occupation. He said Jn part: "It is, of course, true that there are men who work hard and get less than they ought to, and it Is equally true that there are others who receive in excess of what they should. That is a fault that it U perhaps possible to remedy, and I will join in any remedy according to the light that is in me. According to Mr. Bryan there is only one remedy for these evils, and that ia the absolute destruction of every so-called trust or of a large money-making employer. Now, Just think of what that means. For instance, steam and electricity have largely created the conditions with which we have to deal. Now no one in his senses would take the radical step to remedy the trust evil by destroying steam and electricity, and yet that is what Mr. Bryan wants to do. He could, of course, öestroy the trust perfectly well, but he would kill the patient and with the patient every man whose livelihood depends upon the success of the business." A large crowd assembled at the Union Station in Albany to welcome Governor Roosevelt, who, in response to calls for a speech, spoke a few words of greeting from the rear platform of his car. He said the paramount issue Is to see that the country is not Bryanized or the State Crokerlzed. The Governor had been scheduled to address two meetings In Schenectady, but owing to delay in the arrival of his train but one was held in a public hall. Governor Roosevelt said: "I have but a minute or two, but I want to call your attention here in Schenectady to something that Mr. Bryan aid a week ago in this city when he said that if he were elected he would destroy every private monopoly In the United States. Of course he could not do it. If Mr. Bryan's words means anything, they mean that he would destroy every patent in the United States, in which case the General Electric Company here would be one of the first to go to smash." Some Union College students present gave their yell, and noisy interruptions followed, and the Governor said: "When Mr. Bryan came her he was treated with respectful courtesy by the Republicans, and let me ask you creatures who are trying to interrupt me to follow their example."
