CLOSING COLLEGE DAYS
COHMENOIMBNr WKKK OPMEU WITH
THK BACCALAUREATE SERMON.
Werd, et wisdom te the Graduating Class or
rranklln max Marsfaall-What I'retl-
dent Themas O. Apple Raid te nil
Lt.t Class In the Collets.
Rev. Dr. T. O. Apple preached an elo
quent baccalaureate sermon In theehapel of
Franklin and Marshall oellege en Sunday
morning. Notwithstanding tbe threatening
weather thechapel was well filled. At the
chapel bell stepped tinging Dr. Apple en
tered Iho chapel followed by the graduating
class, Iho members of wbleh appeared In
Oxford caps and gowns. Miss Minnie Ap
pel eang sole, "Ave Maria," after tbe
termer. Dr. Apple announced thefpro thefpre thefpro
gramme el exercises far the remainder of
the week as it appeared In Saturday 'a lit
TKLuaRNRnn. Following are acme ex
cerpts or the sermon, tbe text of wbleh waa
Jehn 8 : 12; "I am tbe Light of the world."
This la called a akeptlcal age. Old foun
dations, old beliefs, It la said, are giving
way and new ones are coming In te take
tbelr place. Whereas In former agea con
troversy ran high ever particular doctrines,
or truths, particular phases of Cbrlatltnlty,
new tbe controversy reaches down te tbe
deepest foundations, te tbe essentials of
man's religious belief. Men atand agbaat
when learned scientists and nblleannhAra
are silent en tbe questions, " la there a
Oed ?" If tbere be a Ged, can we knew
Him ?" Is there any revelation from Him
beyond what we have In natnre and rea rea
aen'?'' It Is claimed that the theory of evei
ltttlen bus revealed a uiothed In what baa
been called the creation el tbe world, differ
ing from that gtven in the Bible, a method
which explains tbe existence et all ihtDgs
without the noeeasitv of deciding whether
tbere Is a personal Ged or no. This, tbe
Rreat question r fall questions, it relegates
te the region of private belief and private
speculation. Occupy leg this attitude, the
evolutionist Is net prepared te deny the ex ex ex
latenoe of a pergenal Oed, but noilher can
na anirm suen oxistened,
And new Ohrtstlanty Is ones mere sum
moned bofero the bar of human n a ion, and
It Is challenged te harmenlzs Its beliefs
with the truths or sclsnce as devolepsd In
this age of sclentitie progress. If it can
harmeni79 the teachings of the Blble with
the teacblng of evolution, well and geed, It
then may be true, and men mey continue
te bolleve in it consistently with their
holding te the truth of science ; but even
tben It Is only a speculation, n human
religion, nmeng ethers that have existed
before It, and sonie that are still con
temporaneous with It, This Is about tbe
attitude of tbe new challenge made te
Christian y by the light of selonce as In
terpreted by the theory of evolution.
1 de net propose te speak against evolu
tion as a working theory for explaining the
law of development In the natural world. 1 J
believe it contains much truth, and 1 need
net remind the students or this college that
in contains many points in harmony with
the Idea of development In nature taught In
this institution. Ner de 1 intend te dis
cuss the Importance et trying te har
monize tbn teachings of sclence and these
of the Bible. 1 grant tbe Importance of
this for maintaining the religious teachings
Imparted te the young of our day. But the
only ultimate foundation en which our
faith can rest is tbe poison of Jebus Christ,
and He only Is the absolute revelation of
Oed te man. Accept tbis and it sheds light
upon all questions that it concerns man te
knew ; deny this, and there la no sulllclent
and safe guide in our knowledge of Ued, et
man, of tbe unlvorse.
During your four years college course in
this institution you have laid a foundation
of mental discipline and moral and spirit
ual nurture, ler tbe luture work of your
life. Da net forget that it Is only tbe
foundation of the structure yen are te eulld
upon it, and that tbe coming Thursday Is
only your commencement day. If jeu
remember this you will net need te bs
Informed that the extent of your knowl
edge Is as yet small. Receive kindly the
criticisms that Bre annually administered
toeollego graduates by these who seem
anxious te tell you that your acquirements
are very meaner, and that you are very
helpless ai yet in regard te tbe work
and pursuits of life. Yeu can acknowledge
all that The great matter is tUat you
have made n geed beginning, net in what
Is called "practical knowledge," but in that
discipline which will enable you new te
take held of and renter the knowledge of
practical pursuits. An emtnent rnember
of the bar of this county, net long since, In
peaking te me et the comparative merits
of oellege education and that of ether schools
of a mero practical character, made the
remark that the young man wbe has been
taught a certain mcsMire et knowledge
concerning practical blUIrs, may advance
faster thau the college graduate for a time,
but, all ether Hilten being equal, after a
period of ten years the college graduate
will come out auead. If you build dili
gently upon tbe foundation you have laid
you will succeed, and by patience, faithful
labor and perseve atce you will exel In
the pursuit or protesslon et your choice.
The trouble Is that se many fail te keep up
tbelr studlesaftorthelrgraduatlon. There
fore 1 say, de net forget that this Is only
your commencement In the teal, serious
work of life.
My last and closing word et counsel te
you touches Ihe snlject presented in my
text as explained in this Laccalaurente ser
mon ; it Is that you may carry with you
from tbee hulls, ami ever maintain In your
lives unwavering faith In Jesus Christ, as
tbe light of the wcrld. Te tbis guidance)
we can commend you with the fulleisjr
ance that II you seek earnestly and faith
fully te fellow it you will nevi r go wrong,
but at a n finally Unit great and glorious
destiny for which you were created. Yeu
enter upon the work et your lives at a
period in the world's history when tbe
struggle between faith aud unbellef la grow
ing mere and mere intense, and when the
greatest problem seems te be te harmonize
HClenceand religion, reason and revelation.
De net soek te shirk the struggle, nor give
nn thA nnintlnn nt the nreblem. Accent as
coming from Gcd the best results of scionce
and the best conclusions of right reason.
Bat above Bcieuee and above reason, though
never In contraalctlen with them when
truly set forth, let your supreme authority
be tbe light and guldancoef Jesus Christ.
All else that you need In tbe way of coun
sel la gathored up In this. Whatever eUe
you mav give up In tbe battle of life,
never lese your faith In Him. Cling
te te Him as your infalllble guide
in every time of trial and perplexity,
and in every season of trouble. It is prob
able tbat this Is tbe last senior class le
which I shall address parting words. I
have new served a term of 10 yeara aa
president et tbis Institution, and tbe endow
ment of the pi ca'deney new nearlng com
pletion indicate i the appointment et ene
who may give bis whole time end strength
tetbat position. I feel a Just pride in your
graduation, for 1 feel that you are true and
manly aena .et your alma mater. If you
aee lui perfections and faults In the teachings
and the teachers, remember they have done
for you what they could, and have borne
with tbe same in you. As our partiDg is
with a rathnrlv benediction from us te you,
se may it be with the gratitude of aena
from you te your teaebarB. The grace of
our Lord Jesus Christ be with you 1 Amen!
With tbese werdB et alleotlenate counsel,
in the name of tbe faeulty, and commend
ing you te the care of Him who Is tbe
light et the world, I new bid you an afieo afiee afieo
liena'e farewell.

The third annual tournament of the Lan

urday attorneon was a great success. It was
net as large as expected, as 300 wheelmen
were premised, but was tnfllelent te make
tbe event as mneh as was hoped for. The
parade, which has been described, lneluded
111 wheelmen, bat many riders unattached
te clubs went te the grounds singly or In
palra. There were at least 150 wheelmen
present when the cavalcade entered the
park, and after making a circuit of the track
were photographed by Mr. W. W. Amer,
of tbe Fowler gallery.
There was some delay In making a start
but finally the first event was begun. It
was a " one-mile open," first prlzs, f&0 geld
medal ; second prIi9,Exceller cyclometer;
third prize ball pedals. The starters were
sixteen In number and have been pub
lished. When tbe word waa given J. G.
Shirk and tt. F. Kahler collided and lest a
chance for a plaea In the race, William
Lamb held the, first place ler the half-mile,
but waa then overhauled by W. I. Wll

University of Pennsylvania, the latter
coming In first In 2:52. Wllhelm was
second and S. W. Merrlhew, et tbe Wil

Tbe next event was a most wonderful
exhibition et trick riding by Themas R.

tance waa ball a mile and there were aeven
starters : E. I. Halsted, Pennsylvania
Bicycle club, Philadelphia; O. B. Keeci
University of Pennsylvania, and W. I.
Wllhelm, Reading, eame In the order
named. The latter took the lead at the
start, but they were bunched ter the entlre
distance. Halsted crossed the line first In
1:20, with Keen second, and Wllhelm third.
Wllbelm clalmed a foul because Halsted
oresaod in front of him en tbe first turn
without being tbe requisite two lengths
ahead, entitling him te cress tbe path of the
atate champion. The claim was net al
lowed. The three mile lap race had twelve
atarters and Ualfted again wen In C.52,
William Lamb, Hmlthvllle, N. J., was
second, and F. M. Dampman, Wilmington,
third. The last race waa a one mile con
solation race with live starters. F. M.
Dampman waa victor In 3.09.
Tbe races exclted great Interest among
tbe 1,500 people wbe were present, wbe
cheered tbe winners. Some r eg ret waa
abewn that the Lancaster riders did net de
hotter, but It must be remembered that
tbey were matched against the fastest
rldera In the atate. Tbe ovent was a finan
cial success and tbore will be a neat sum,
after all expenaes paid, for the permanent
fund of tbe club.
