Young Bull in Canada Town
Milks 40 Cows Daily
Animal Xeedinjc Exercise Operates
Treadmill Shoulders Developed
Owner Expects Prises.
VANCOUVER, B. C. June 6. (Spe
cial.) It has remained for J. W.
Berry, of Langley Prairie, a born
economist, to adapt the cheapest power
ever used for the milking of cows. Mr.
Berry owns a 16-months-old Holsteln
bull, bred from the best stock in Brit
ish Columbia. The bull needed exercise
dally, so the owner conceived the idea
of furnishing the exercise without ex
pense and with profit.
Mr. Berry's' bull now milks the herd
of 40 cows twice daily. For an hour
each morning and evening he operates
an improvised treadmill. As he marks
time the shafting in the stable turns,
pulleys revolve, belting transfers the
power to the milking apparatus, and
with a suck, suck, the milk is drawn
from the udders of the herd.
When the dairyman tells friends that
his bull milks his dairy cows they
laugh.- They think it is a Joke. It is a
fact. Mr. Berry says the daily treading
is putting shoulders on the bull that
ring Judges will admire at next Fall's
exhibition. These shoulders, he says.
may help the animal to capture cham
pionship awards.

NtW YORK, June 13. (Special.)
Count Michael Karolyi, leader of
the Hungarian Nationalists, re
cently completed a visit to the United
States, made with the object of get
ting into touch with the Hungarian
colonies In the principal American
centers. Hungarians in Pittsburg.
Cleveland and Chicago have given him
enthusiastic receptions.
When asked what is the significance
of Count Karolyi's visit to the United
States at this time, Alexander, a lead
ing Hungarian of New York, saltl:
"The significance to Hungarian Amer
icans of the visit of this brilliant mem
ber of the younger generation of Hun
garian statesmen is much the same as
that of a similar visit by John Red
mond or T. P. O'Connor to the Irish
Americans. Count Karolyi, besides
bearing the name of one of the most
Illustrious and wealthy families of
Hungary, may be said to personify the
hope of his countrymen for national
independence, a hope which has always
slumbered in the breast of Hungarians.
"He is a striking leader, bold and
daring in his speeches in the Diet and
has bound together the scattered fac
tions of the opposition party by the
sheer charm and force of his individ
uality. During the four years of his
leadership his popularity has steadily
grown and he is personally responsi
ble for again and again blocking leg
islation in the Diet which was oppres
sive of Hungary and directly antago
nistic to Hungarian liberty.
"The meaning of his visit is plain,
therefore, when it is remembered that
the Hungarian .Americans conserva
tively estimated at a million and a half
and sending annually between 4.000,000
and 6,000,000 crowns to Hungary to aid
their relatives at. home, are almost a
unit in supporting the opposition pol
icy. Among the Hungarian-American
newspapers in this country, for In
stance, both daily and weekly, not one
can be found to favor Austrian rule.
"Count .Karolyi s visit is expected to
arouse this vast and well-to-do body
of Hungarians in America and to pre
pare tne way lor a visit later on by
five or six prominent orators and
members of the opposition, whose
work it will be to bring American en
thusiasm to bear upon the Hungarian
election next Fall and to raise funds
for the campaign expenses of the Na
tionalist candidates."
Sigismlnd Frankashazy, a ' leadinic
Hungarian editor, arrived here recent
ly, to observe conditions in this coun
try and to follow up the work of Count
Karolyi in interesting American Hun-

garians in the plan for making Hun
gary as free as the United States. Some
Hungarians living in New York who
are not in sympathy with Count Karo
lyi tried to have Mr. Frankashazy
barred from America under a recent
decision of the immigration authorities
because he has fought duels in his own
country. Alexander Monta, leading
Hungarian citizen of New York, who
entertained Count Karolyi when he
was here, saw the Commissioner of Im
migration and arranged that the emi
nent editor should be admitted as his
guest.
Earl Grey, formerly governor-general
of Canada, departed for home on
the Vaterland last week. He and his
wife and two daughters occupied one
of the imperial suites which is a self
contained apartment with a private
promenade deck. The Karl has been in
California buying oil wells for a British
syndicate.
Walter Damrosch is in Europe with
his family. He went to look for musi

Mr. Damrosch probably carried a glad
heart "with him. for at the meeting of
the New York Symphony Society the
night before he sailed Harry Harkness
Flagler announced that he would make
up hereafter the deficit of the society.
That deficit is $56,000 this year. Last
year it was $48,000. Tills splendid act

GOD'S GREAT LOVE FOR MANKIND IS TOPIC OF SERMON
" Dr. Hinson Takes Text From Holy Gospel According to St. John, "For God So Loved the World That He Gave His Only Begotten Son."
BT WALTER B. HIUSON,
(Pastor White Temple.)
MANY have thought this text to be
the grandest verse in all the
Bible. And well they might.
For if other verses are as stars in the
night, of men's sin and sorrow, then
is this text like the morning star,
shining as the herald of tho great sun
of righteousness. And if other verses
are as birds singing of the dawn, then
is this verse as the English lark rising
nearest to the overhanging blue and
carolling from the very gates of
heaven. Only this wonderful text is
not only lark-like, but it is also as
the nightingale or the robin, singing
sweetest in the dark night of human
misery, or after and often during the
storm of man's sorrow and distress.
Martin Luther used to call this text
'the Little Bible," as, in a sense, it is.
For, as an epitome of what the whole
Bible teaches, the verse is singularly
expressive. But in another way the
text is the largest utterance in the
great Book of God. For does it not
contain God the infinite, the omnipo
tent, the omnipresent, the omniscient
and the eternal, the great self-existent
one, who created, who governed,
who still sustains and who will at last
be the God over all, blessed forever?
And It contains Christ. Christ the
greater prophet than Moses, the star
that Baal am saw, - the mightier king
than David, the greater than Solomon,
the son of Abraham, the son of David,
the son of. Mary, the son of man, the
son of God.
Much Said In Little.
And it contains salvation. It has in
it the tears of Olivet, the bloody sweat
of Gethsemane. the thirst of Golgotha;
yes, and the bitter passion and the
awful price of man's redemption -are all
in this great text.
So that it is an epitome of salvation.
It tells of the nature of God, that he
loved us; of the life work and charac
ter of Jesus, that he is God's Son who
for our life gave himself; of salvation,
that everlasting life and redemption
from perishing lie Imbedded in our ac
ceptance of the Saviour. O, the great
salvation text is this; the unique verse
of the unique book. The verse Dwlght
L. Moody continually used, as in the
inquiry room he would say to those who
were dealing with the convicted. "Give
them John 111:16."
And this text declares that God is
the origin of our salvation. God is the
great beginning. Go far enough East
or West or North or South, up or down,
backward or forward, and you come to
God. Behind gravitation, controlling
the star in its orbit and the bubble on
the breaker, you find God. At the
heart of all the sciences, in the center
of all the philosophies, in the history
of man and of men, there stands Jeho
vah. Beyond the martyrs, the apos
tles, the prophets, the patriarchs, the
world, the universe; long ere sea heed
ed the impulses of the moon or con
stellation flamed or wind sighed
through a forest God was. For we
talk of primal germ, of protoplasm, or
original world stuff, but we mean God.
v Creation Ia Retold.
"In the beginning God" is the initial
sentence of the Hebrew Bible. And if
we have not discovered God it is be
cause we have not yet penetrated to
the beginning. For it was God it
could have been no one save the Self
existing, the Eeternal and the Infinite
who stood and cried "Let there be
light; let there be a firmament; let
gathered waters form great seas; let
there be lights, sun, moon and stars;
let there be life in the sea. and in the
upper air; let the earth robe itself in
verdure and possess insect and animal
life, and let man appear to take pos
session of and dominate and subdue all
the forces and. destinies of the earth."
In our imperfect thought Christ has
overshadowed. God the Father. But it
has never been the fault of Christ that
this occurred. For he came to reveal
the Father. But we, In our misun
derstanding, have for ages had the slo
gan "From God to Christ," when we
should have said, "Through Christ to
God." And so the last thing man ever
predicted of God was love. We knew
he was a. God of might, for the great
universe evidenced that; and we knew
he was a God of wisdom, for the shin
ing heavens demonstrated that; we
knew he was a. God of beauty, for
every rose in the garden has proved
that; we hoped he was a God of mercy
and pity, and some things looked that
way; but the full-orbed sympathy and
tenderness and love of God, even of
the Father God, this is Christ's rev
elation; the mighty revelation that all
the singing constellations and surging
seas and silent mountains never de
clared or could declare. That ' God
loved man, we repeat, might be in
ferred from much in nature and from
much in, providence and from much In
life.
But the sure, authoritative and cer
tain proof, and demostration, and mani.
testation of that love is seen on
Calvary, where the gray rocks and
green grass of the earth grew red
with the blood of God's greatest gift to
man. For the cross shows that while
God hates the sin, he loves the sin
ner, and that he loves the whole world,
for is not the whole world sinful T So
now every island, and continent, and
mountain, and prairie, and forest, and
city may know that God is love.
Then . let the little streams prattle
of it to the nodding flowers along
their banks, and let the mighty rivers
proclaim it to all the thronging com
merce upon their broad bosoms, and let
the deep grand psalm of the sea pro
claim it to all the shores it laves,
and let every wind whisper it, and
shout It, and thunde'r It wherever it
passes; and let the stars write it In
the glittering night sky; and let all
men everywhere know it. and believe
it, and receive it, and publish it, God
loves-the world!
And tho text reveals Christ' as the
Channel of Salvation. I have ever been
fascinated by the names the master of
our souls wears and bears. He is called
the Rose of Sharon, and the Lily of
the Valley, and the branch and the
tree of life, and he is the morning star,
and the day spring from on high, and
the sun of righteousness, and he is the
foundation stone, the corner stone, and
the top stone, the great Rock of Ages;
he is the brother born for adversity,
the friend, the guide and the shepherd;
he is water of life, and bread of life,
and the way to life and truth, and life
itself, and yet last week It seemed to
me as though the title of "The Door,"
which he once claimed for himself,
seemed to me quite overwhelmingly
suggestive. For that Is what he is in
regard to salvation! He is entrance.
By me. he said, men come into the
apprehension of the father, and no man
knoweth the father except he to whom
the son revealeth him.
The loving, tender, sympathizing
father God, could not be evidenced by
the blind forces of nature, or by the
utterance of patriarchs, prophets,
seers, and psalmists; or even the teach
ing of Apostles, but it was essential
that deity should become incarnate,
and that God should subject himself
to the limitations of our humanity, and
walking among men, should talk of
flowers, and birds, and children, and
women, and men. and God to us; and
so nhow us as in concrete form, and in
a human yet dtvlne way, what God
really is. and how God feels, and thinks,
and loves and saves, and values, and
blesses. God's greatest gift is Christ.
Brighter than all stars is this. His
Morning Star; lovelier than, all roses Is
this. His Rose of Sharon; fairer than
all lilies is this. His Lily of the Val
ley, and surer than all rocks is this.
His Rock of Ages. And on the other
hand, Christ's greatest gift to man is
His revelation of God. Not only that
God is Justice and Truth and Holiness,
and Wisdom, and Mercy, but over
arching all else, that He is Love. This
is what Christ meant) when He said:
"By me. if any man enter into this
sheepfold, wherein the Father protects
His own. he shall be saved. This is
what He conveyed to us when He de
clared: "This is life eternal, that they
may know Thee, thJ only true God
and Jesus Chrlstl" And this is what
He taught when He declared: "I am
the way."
Now this wonderful salvation, who
shall describe it? For It is deliverance
from the guilt and power of sin; but
it is more. And it is reconciliation,
and as a reconciliation between God
and man. It is sweet as wild flower's
perfume, r presence of light, or kiss
of child; but it is more. And it is
atonement, the bringing together of
those whom sin have wronged and sep
arated: but it is more. For it Is Jus
tification. It is the declaring that God
has so graciously forgiven sin and eo
gloriously forgotten It. that the saved
man may stand up !n the presence of
the great and Just God and say: "My
Father."
My God is reconciled.
Ills pardoning; voice I hear!
He owns ma for His child.
I can no longer fear.
With filial trust I now draw nigh.
And Father, Abba Father, cry.
But with a great price obtained we
this freedom!
Man of Sorrows, what a name.
For the Son of God who caine
Kulned sinners to reclaim.
Hallelujah, what a fcaviour!
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
in my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His bltKtd,
Hallelujah, what a Saviour!
