Bishop Scaddlng Take Judaism for
i Subject of Sermon,
la his fifth aermon upon tha six
great veltglons of the earth last night
Blsnop Charles Scaddlng took for his
subject, Judaism. His text was, "Lo.
the people shall dwell alone, and shall
not ba reckoned among tha nation."
Bishop Scaddlng first dwelt upon the
history of the religion and then closed
his sermon with remarks dealing upon
observation a - gained from personal
study of tha Jews In ail walks of life
from tha - crowded tenement districts
on tha east side of New Tork to the
wealthy merchant.- He) said la part:
"We Christiana aa-ree that tha law
has been neither silenced, abrogated nor
subverted by tha coming of tha Son
or boa. its real character la vindi
cated. It haa passed Into ths gospel.
The Messlaxilo promise of a righteous
king and aa eternal kingdom has al
ways come forward to au stain the
drooping spirit of the Jew. Here is the
point of departure between the Jew and
the Christian. Tha Jew still looks Tor
the fulfillment of the eromiae. The
Christian believes tha promise haa been
already ruiruied.
"There are xour nerioda or Judaism
which stand nromlnently forth. The
Bible makes us familiar with tha first
period under Moses, the law-giver. The
second period is that of the middle ages.
it is ldentinea witn ins name or jaoses,
the son of Maimon. who waa born to
Cordova in 1116. He la called moses
Malmonldes.
"Again In 1750 the whole aspect of
Jewish life waa changed, especially
among German Jews, and this wss
wrought by a Moses, Moses Mendels
sohn, by tha introduction of all that Is
Known as culture- Menaeissonn was
the great Jewish pnllosoDher. He trans
lated the Pentateuch Into - German.
Jewish literature and learning took on
a new life. Ia lt2t another Moses
arose. He was Moses Monttflore. who
became tha advocate for the oppressed
Jews of all countries. He Was the
grestest philanthropist of his race.Pos
sessed'Of boundless wealth, he used it
in charities of all kinds. Today where
will you flnj so much generosity and
liberality for charitable causes ss
among the J4wsT
"For three yeara I lived in the heart
of the most crowded Polish Jew district
in the world, on tha oast side of lower
New Tork. I saw that Jewish life come
up llko a great- tidal wave around our
St. Gorge's chapel. When I remember
Jesua was a Jew. St. Peter and St Paul
were Jews, my heart' la aglow for the
race, Jet us try to oe witnout preju
dice. (There are Jewa and Jews, and It
is i-nfalr, yea. It Is wicked to Judge the
race by a class with whom we may
possibly be most familiar. Just as un
fair as It would be for a Jew who keeps
the Sabbath to Judge Christianity by
those Christians who make no true ob
servance of Sunday.
"If we desire the well-being of the
world. If we desirv the glory of the
Lord, we must earnestly pray and dili
gently labor to promote the hlerhest
Sood of his ancient people. Pray for
ie peace of Jerusalem." ,

TWO FACTIONS

Differences Today at
Polls.
An election la In progress today at
St Johns that means much to tha prop-erty-qwnera
and taxpayers of that ctty.
Two tickets ara in the field and tha Is
sues' ara- sharply outlined. Ths Good
Government league, headed by . H. W.
Brice for mayor, a respected citlien of
St Johns, atanda for a closed town and
economy In .running the government,
even to tha reduction of salaries.' The
People's and Taxpayers' ticket, headed
by F. J. Hendricks, atanda on a platform
somewhat similar to tha Good Govern
ment league, but with tha "closed town"
plank eliminated.
One of tha most Interesting fights for
office ia that for city attorney, around
which It Is expected tha real strength of
tha two factions will be centered. H.
E. Collier la .tha candidate for city at
torney on the ticket put forward by the
Good Government league and la one of
the leaders in that organization.

date for city attorney, making a three
cornered fight out of it There Is also
a three-cornered battle for city treas

ticket and J. E. Tanch and C. S. Thomp
son, both having been Indorsed and both
being on tha ticket of the Taxpayers
and People's factions. Tha latter two
factions held separate conventions, but
