BEE INSTITUTE AT EARLHAM

A SPLENDID ATTENDANCE FOR THE OPENING NIGHT ADDRESS ON RABBONI Was Given by Lewis E. StoutJesus Should be Master of Our Vote, Etc.

s Bible Institute opened at Earlham ' College last evening. The attendance was large and enthusiastic. Nearly one hundred persons were present to hear the onenin? address and more

iare coming.

f President Brown, of Wilmington College, who was to give the address of the evening was unavoidably detained by an engagement in Tennessee. The program was modified, and Lewis E. Stout gave his address on "Rabboni." "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," was sung. Allen Jay called the meeting to order, and Esther Cook led the meeting in a season of worship. The first Psalm was read. The song, "O, Blessed Thought," was sung by the congregation. Lewis E. Stout was then introduced, and began by translating the word Rabboni: My Master. It was a joyful day when the ark was brought to the temple. It was a happy hour when the child Jeusu was found. It was a still more happy time when

Mary Magdalene found her Master, of whom she had just said: "They have taken aAvay my Lord and I know not where they have laid Him." Even in the Old Testament there is much said in gladness at the idea of the Lordshp of Jehovah. Still more in the New Testament do we find men and women delighting themselves in findng Christ and acknowledging Him as a Master. "We come to these Bible institutes to sit as Mary at the feet of Jesus. No man can call Jesus Lord except by the Holy Ghost. Too many ministers only take a text to preach from. As we follow Jesus more and more will we learn that his eternal plan for us is wondrously good and blessed. Jesus in the home is the most blessed idea of purity and saintliness in life. We should think of Jesus as the Lord of the dining room, of the library, for His peace should remove from our bed room tossing and unrest. Jesus should be our Master in our intellectual triining, in our social life, in our voting. He should be our Master in our business. The leration of labor and capital is easily solved under the mastery of Jesus. The capitalist and the laborer are not antagonists there they are fellow laborers. An excellent program has been arranged for the eight days of the institute, with five lectures and two meetings for worship for each day. Not one of these can be attended without distinct profit. The public is cordially invited. Following is tomorrow's program: (N. B. All the periods, except the evening sessions, are only 45 minutes in length.) , . 8 a. m.

We have left us no complet life of Chirst, therefore fe riust con struct one and it is of tbe sources of this life I a mto speak. First we have a few short extracts from heathen and

Jewish writes.

only heathen wnters who mention Him, and Joseph gives some indirect

testimony. Also the Epistles of Paul make allusions to the life of Christ. It is to the four Gospels that we owe almost all weknqw of His life. The Gospel oft Mark is probably the oldest. There is much reason to be lieve it was written down from me mories of Peter. From internal evi dence it seems to have been written for gentiles, probably the Romans. There is a tradition that Matthew was written originally in Hebrew. But it is believed that our Greek Matthe wis not a translation from the Hebrew, but an original composition founded on Hebrew documents. The third Gospel is by Luke. It has in it more of biography than the others. The fourth is believed to have been written by John, the son of Zebidee. His authorship has been called in question by the critical scholars of the past. But there has been recently a great change in the attitude of this school. It is now doubted by scarcely anyone. John has not observed time order. It was written not as a biography, but that the Disciples of Jesus know certain great facts. Originally the Evangelist was the man who told the story of Christ.

RICHli

IT

TO BE INVADED BY SALVATION ARMY SAID AN OFFICER LAST NIGHT REPORT OF "SCOUTS" Was Probably Unfavorable-Perpara-tions Were Made Locally for an Invasion. The Salvation Army, one of the greatest of the present day evangelical orders in the world, especiallv in Europe and America, which for several months has had under consideration a systematic invasion of this city, has suddenly, and without forewarning, decided not to invade Richmond, but to confine its intention to other fields. At least this was the substance of what one of the officers of the order, and one who has worked oicituuj in eastern Indiana, said at the Pennsylvania depot last nis-ht while he was waiting to change cars. "A number of the leading men and merchants of your city," he said, " importuned us to come and work in Richmond, and the offers made us were very flattering ones. The appeals of the merchants were strong, and the Indiana officers accepted the. offer and sent 'scouts' here. For several weeks four or five of the scouts were in Richmond, and it must be that it was on account of their report that Richmond was not invaded. We received word that in all probability Richmond would be the next place where we should work; and we made preparations to come here. A few of the leaders did come 4H4pejL, j&rerajt days- here, but we received word 'later that we weretTP go to other cities, leaving Richmond off for this time. We did not know exactly why our orders were changed but I suppose that the report of the advance scouts was unfavorable' "No," said he, in answer to a question, "I do not think that Richmond will be invaded next year, either, although I have nothing positive to say on this point. But from what I have learned, the scenes of our operations in Indiana next year will not include this city." It will be remembered that quite a little excitement was caused when the forerunners of the army arrived in this city about a month ago and said that this city would be invaded in a systematic way. Preparations were made by local people on a small scale but they were abandoned when the soldiers here were seen not to do anything tending toward a commencement of the invasion. VALE DACKPABDS Muscles in Baby's Legs Are Transposed. Baltimore, July 27 Unless the surgeons at the Maryland General hospital can invent a successful operation, a foundling brought there will walk backwards all his life. Nature has constructed the baby oh peculiar lines by placing the muscles of both legs in the wrong place. The child is about ten days old. ' Nurses at 'the foundling home were first attracted to its constant kicking. The litle feet wouldn't stay'down. -Physicians explain this by saying the muscles which should be on the under part of tbe leg are in f rkmt and vice versa. ,ji , : ss 4m This baby can toueb his nose with his big toe on either foot without effort. If he should grow to maturity without being cured of the deformity the physicians say he would be forced to walk backward.
