Andrea Bard Tells of Miscon ception of the Dlcty. In hi aermon at St. Davld'a. Rev. Andreaa Bard. D. D.. of Walla Walla, gave the hlatory of God in human phil osophy. He showed that th Intelle.t of man had slowly grown acenstomed to those higher conceptions of the Deity which modern science has revealed. He characterised Jehovah of the Old Testament as an Immeasurable Jew with white whiskers, and blames the church for still holding to such child ish conceptions which made God ridicu lous In the realm of reason. He stated that It might be after all more rever ent to worship an unknown God than to idolize a creature of ghostland. Taking his text from Paul's sermon In Athens. Mr. Bard said In part: "In Athens Paul found an altar dedi cated to the unknown God. What does this mean? It means that the pagana were candid enough to admit that they had not found the Eternal. They had. Indeed, caught glimpses of his presence. They recognised his majesty In the bil lows of the sea and called It Neptune. They felt his omnipresence and named It Mercury; they divined his power and i Imagined Jove: they discovered nis wjs- dom and worshiped Minerva. But they felt that there was something beyond. Their minds could not grasp It. Their words could not utter It. Their lmagea could not reflect It. They admitted their failure. They built an altar to the unknown God. "Centuries have psased alnce Paul preached in Athens. The world has ad vanced. Poetry gave us a Shakespeare; science found a .Darwin; music, under Wagner, became divine. But has relig ion kept step with this general prog ress? We.hrsltate to reply. There are millions outside the church who openly profess that God is unknown. There are millions In the church whose idea of the Infinite is more childish and su perstitious than that of the ancient Greeks. "This Is due "to our idolatry of the Bible. The Old Testament speaks of Ood as taking a stroll with Abram. It 'pictures him conversing with Moses. It makes him do rash things and ex press repentance afterward. It permits the psalmist to exclaim: Up, Lord! Why sleepest thou?' Tnklng all this literally, we nave belittled the Infinite. We have made him ridiculous in the realm of reason. Jehovah appears to the imaginr.tlon as an immeasurable Jew with long white whiskers. It is a thou sand times more reverent to worship de- un voutly at the shrine of the great known than to idolize a creature ghostland." of HINDUS ARE AMAZED. CXZCAOO HABXET. meata. 187 Third treet.

R. A N. main line between Portland and La Grande. Heavy rains began on the uplands north and south of the Columbia river Saturday morning. The falling water, together with melting snows on the mountains, brought down floods and landslides that yesterday demoralized the train service on both sides of the Columbia. The Washougal river, an important logging stream, was flooded and about 8,000.000 feet of logs wye brought down against th long, high trestle of the north bank road at that point. The trestle wss at one place forced two feet out of line. Beavy Slid oa O. B. ft B.
