The speaker, who occupied the pulpit of Dr. Short, took the l'a - - on of hla sermon, the promise that ro ' llglon pays -the man who practices it, no matter In what walk of life , he is. It pays in business, in the law, medicine and even Jn politics.' 7, . . . .' Dr. Wilson contended that a food name was rather' to be chosen than creat riches. The roan with a reputa tion for. honesty and steadfastness of ' purpose was the man who would suc ceed In the present day. The people of the United States, and of. the- world, nave had too much of impurity In the ' past yeare and are hungry for a c ha nee. A Roosevelt Js a rood man, practical in his religion, and be has prospered .be ., cause of It. ' r The leaven of godliness Is working In the mas of humanity, the speaker said, and the good will triumph over the bad. "' The time-Is coming- when the gambler, the saloon-keeper and the grafter will 'not have the standing- and prestige In politics they have had. , Even now they are losing their place held in the old time regime. " "Godliness pays politically. A good . name is rather to be chosen than great riches even In politics,? said Dr. Wilson. "Good men are coming to the front. Our president Is a Godly man and his influence la permeating the whole na tion., j The leaven of righteousness is working in the mass. The time is com- Ing when the grafter, the. vote-aeller. the - saloon advocate, the gambling apologist and the man who misrepresents his bet ter constituents and prostitutes his pa Itlon will not. even, be- reelected to this city council. God hasten the day, but what a difference It would make In Portland! But what I mean Is thst re ligion is profitable to the body politic; it makes government easy.".

Then he soke.of a Christian's need for watchfulness, and declared! hat if ' order to learn of sin that a dally rec ord was kept by the newspapers.

' At St. Mark's Episcopal church yea terdsy Rev. J. K. 11 Simpson spoke on the text: "Whatsoever things were . written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and the comfort of the Scriptures might have hope." - The speaker said this referred to the Old Testament, and tbat the words con tained In that portion of the Bible ap plied to members of the Christian church es well es to the Jews, for whom It waa originally written. "The church expands their application." be said, "and uses them today in relatlou to all Scriptures the Bible." Dr. Simpson said further: "A great deal -of the antagonism shown toward the Bible in these modern times arises .from the crude conceptions end crude theories of inspiration ventilated by many of the Protestant bodies. The ' views so recently prevalent of plenary ; Inspiration and textual inerrancy the dots and commas and the very words fPd.jjhrasea of King, Jana version wlng regarded as Inspired degraded . the Bible to the position' of a book of ' rriagle and led multitudes to a harmful btbliolstry." . RELIGIOUS ATMOSPHERE rathe O "stare Speaks on Its Bead fot Spiritual Training. ' Tfce' primary reason for developing the social side of religion Is to gene rate a healthy spiritual atmosphere' In which the principles of the gospel msy thrive and become vital," declared Father Oliara at the Cathedral rester dsy morning. -He continued: "A practical Illustration of the neces sity of - religious atmosphere for re ligious training la to be found in tup pernicious effe-n on the youthful mind of these lax views of demesne morality so prevalent today." "A society In which the socl prestige of a remarried divorcee Is recognised Is helpless to instll( into the heert of its youth any regard far home life. The atmosphere It breathes is Inected with sin and cannot fall to spread moral pestilence.

C. B. C. for U years at the head of the Notre Dame college, and at present provincial of the congregation of the Holy Cross,' spoke at fit. Mary's church, Alblns, yesterday morning on the subject, "Necessity for Higher Education and the Reason." He said In part: .. "At no time ties there been such an Insistent demand for the all-around edu cated man, , grounaed on the eternal principles of purity and virtue.' The means of developing such education may well be considered. ' "Meetings and conventions are con stantly being v held throughout this country, and there le an exchange of ideas on the subject. All lead to the one great end, the development of means that educate the whole man. the heart with the head, and the rounding out of true men equal to the demands of the . "We need such, men, and that sort of education Is the only real criterion of success In Hfe. lWe need men capable of meeting the great questions of the times. This Is a -new country, bound less and freighted - with opportunities for young men capable of meeting con ditions. There are great demands for such young men who . have received both secular and religious education. . "Our Catholic institutions have sought to meet this demand, and are develop ing young men of high moral Character. whose hearts are trained aa well as their heads. God's hand must be 1n such a system, and so we say that the Catholic system of education Is the best for true American cltlsenshlp. There Is no way that we can serve our coun try better thn to support the methods of education "hat develop true unrisuan character, and this is what our Catholic Institution s-arsndotngr : r "We need public men of -nigh char acter, who know right from wrong. They should be well grounded In the teaohlnga of Jesus Christ. Catholic edu cation teaches the eternal principles of Jesus Christ. The Catholio church teaches recognition of authority. The true Catholic reapecta authority, wheth er It be the holy man who slta In St. Peter's throne or the ruler of his coun try. "There Is nothing secret about the Catholio religion. It ts founded on the same principles as the constitution of this country. If you were to remove ml hint nut the Catholic mlliffM and schools of this country it would be an Irreparable calamity to the country. And so our Catholio institutions are en deavoring to educate young men and develop . true ..cnarcterln .them. The una thing Is being donri in our paro chial schools. Who can And fault with them? We teach Justice, good cltlsen hlp. patriotism, publio - purity . and moral character. The heed of higher education ts growing, and we ere sup plying the means." -MANY-ARE-CHRISTIANS- Be ate v.

Earl Dubois,-psstor of - the Church of the Strangers, and he ao expressed himself In a sermon yesterday morning. - His topic wss "Quit Tou Like Men."- He said In part! "A spontaneous movement among Christian men la In progress. Lant February almost 1,004 men from -all parts - of tile. Vnlted Presbyterian church gathered In convention at Pitts burg, formulated . a constitution and elected a secretary. ' Thht great meet ing was charscterlzedby enthusiasm and seriousness. Last month over COO men from the - Presbyterian Church North met In convention at Indianapo lis. ' In tbe Presbyterian Church South there is a like movement. One can scsrrely say where the movement origi nated. The spirit of God haa been working In the hearta of men, and the movement for the organisation of men haa aprung up' In different denomina tions. Indicating a divine movement. "These conventions were eminently of Christian business men. Men of targe sffalrs left thetr business thst they might meet together and discuss the business of the kingdom.

Zs Highly Bpeetaeaiar. The fire was highly spectacular and attracted an immense crowd from all di rections. At the time of the fire the Salvation Army was holding its "usual nightly revival services at .the corner of Burnslde and Second -streets, and not until the fire apparatus thundered up the atreet did the worshipers adjourn to another location. A report gained wide circulation that a number of Japan rse mfimars In the h"V" J'"""mh'1 to smoke, but upon Investigation It was ascertained that all of them had man aged to escape, although losing most of their belongings.

In a sermon yesterday morning,' Rev. H. C. Schaffer of the First Vnlted Brethren church aid ThalTfesldent Roosevelt. Governor Frank Hanly of In diana, William J. Bryan or Governor Folk of Missouri would be the next president Rev. M. Schaffer praised all of these men and said that he favored President Roosevelt's reelection. Ill sermon dealt almost entirely upon so cial and economli questions, and largely upon the child labor Issue. He eald "There are et present over t.ooo.000 children employed In the United States, as wage-earners. There are S0.000 children In the southern cotton mills, from S to IS years of age tolling II hours per day. In New York there are many- children from 3 to years of age .employed. Thousands are at work In the mines of Pennsylvania. The con dition of the children physically their lark of opportunity for an education. the consequent lowering of the wages of the men, the less number of men needed; all taken tagethcr, doubtless caused the president to urge In hla mes sage of a year ago, and also in his re cent message, that something should be done.-- . --- - -. --' "History will record that - President Roosevelt wss a targe factor In abolish ing child labor.

These two-are the only men In the country who can race with Folk and Bryan. One of .these four will doubtless be our next presi dent, and while I would prefer the elec tion of a Prohibitionist.

Mrs. Trumbull said thst, the bill paused four years ago had beenTounn1 to have many loop holes, but that most of the loop boles had been remedied by the legislature two years ago. The labor unions, she declared, took the credit for the passage of the bills te themselves, but the truth was thst their .passage wae due to the efforts of a number of prlvste cltlj&ns.. including ncrsrit,. atte- prwiTcua me esny prose cution of messenger' companies for sending little boya to disreputable nouses m me norm ena.

"Some of the men In the cigar stores eye me pretty hard when I go along the street, but I don't mind that," aaya the mayor. .
