The members of Washington and
Klectrtc City councils, Knights of
Maltn, attended tlie evening service at
the Simpson Methodist Episcopal
tiiurch laat evening. The organization
vim well represented, and the men wore
the regalia of the order und curried n
beautiful silk Amerlciui Hug and thu
banners of the respective lodges.
The services were opened with the
sinking- of a hymn by the congregation,
and prayer wus offered by Kov. L. C.
Harned. The church was crowded to
the doors when the services began.
Miss Leah Brltton, of Heading, who Is
the guest of Dr. and Mrs. George I!.
Jleynolds, rendered a violin solo with
exquisite taste and skill.
The pastor. Rev. ,1. II. Sweet, supple
mented his talk to the members of the
order by making a patriotic reference to
thf American Hag. He welcomed the
knights us brothers, as he himself Is
a member of the order, and paid a
plowing tribute to their fraternity and
patriotism. Hev. Sweet spoke along the
lines of the three primal Ideas of the
order ancient, fraternal and religious,
hut did not take any special text for
his address.
He related the history and origin of
the order, and contrasted Its age with
the famous landmarks of days gone by.
Jt Mas founded In lots, and Its member
championed the cause of Christianity
then as they do today. God used this
organization as a leverage to perpetu
ate the cause of humanity, the speaker
said, and behind It all arc the bencllts
of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The fraternity of the order as base 1
on Christ's fraternity and taught by
His followers can only be true when
based on Christ's fraternity. The am
bition of each member is to measure up
to the highest possible standard, und
thus it must he attained by a Christian
life. Earthly honors are effervescent.
They are nf naught to us, and no mat
ter how much applause we receive In
tills life, it will avail us nothing unless
we enter Into the only true fraternity
that of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Feast of the Passover.
With tho setting ot the sun, on Satur

Jewish religion was ushered In. Every
where In tho world nt the present time
the faithful of th" children of Abra

period of so-called "feasting" will con
tinue until sundown next Saturday and
during that time services will be held.
At the Linden street temple Saturday
night public services were held. Yes

Chapman, preached a special sermon,
using as his theme "Dow the Jew Is
glorifying nims-Mt anil ins uou oy nis

Hon of mankind." A special song

"Not Pence, But War."
t..-,,. IT n.nnt Tt T rtf II, i, Tr
aid Place African Methodist Episcopal
church last evening discoursed upon
"Not Peace, but War." choosing as n
text Matthew, x:3l: "Think nut that I
am come to send peace on earth: I
came not to send peace, but a sword."
In part, he said:
Jesus Is tho "Prince ot Peace-." This Is
on illustrious desl-. nation. It is divinely
given and it flouis down tho ages with
moro than seraphic melody. Angelb at
His birth announced "peace on earth and
good will to men" as the great character
istic of His earthly lelgn. The world
and Its tremenlous lealiz.itlons hears tho
blissful proclamation from heaven with
delight. Hut, hark, what is that wo near
coming rrom tno lips ot Jesus jimii'iit
"Think not that I am corno to semi peace
on earth; I came not to send peace, but
a swotd." And Ho goes on to amplify
this startling auni.unccment. by dei tar.
Ing that "a man's foes shall be they of
his own household" that He Is come to
set a man at variance agalntt his father
and the daughter against her mother, etc.
And then He says, with an emphasis
that strikes the very heart's core: "Ho
that loveth father or mother more than
me" and furthur: "And lu that taketh
not his cross ond followeth after me, Is
not worthy of me." How an wo to ret-on-e-il-o
the augello pinclamatlou, "peaco on
earth und good will to men," with the
proclamation of the Prince Himself. "I
am not come to send peace on earth, but
a Bword." Is not Jesus the embodiment
of dlvlno love, "tho brightness of the
Father's glory and tlie express Image of
ills person?" lias Ho not been manifest
ed In the flesh to demonstrate the fact
thai "Ooil so lovid the world that He
gavo His only begotten Son that whoso,
over bcllevcth In Hint should not perish,
but hue everlasting life?" True. glo.
rlously true! Calvary Is all expressive
of love npd mercy. The globe today Is
