It was not generally understood until
the meeting yesterdny afternoon that
the citizens' committee nnd not the
iettet cairleis themselves had the let
ting of the cojitinct In charge. This
had the effect of somewhat lessening
the feeling against the latter, but It
was the genei.il bentlment of the meet
ing that the lettei canters themselves
should have used their Influence In
hiving the woik done In union libor.
especially now that theie Is a caipen
ters' strike on hand.
A committee wns appointed to wait
on the genetal committee and request
them to see that all future work be
done bv union laboi. A telegram was

Hev. P P Dot j, pastor of the Cedar
Avenue Mthodlst Episcopal chinch,
at the moinlng services it t his chinch
csteiday preached an able seitnon.
Ills subject was "Christ the Crucl

with close attention bv a large con
giegntlon lle chose foi his text the
words of the Hist chapter of the Cor
inthians, verses 1 and '.' and S. "And

Chilsi and Him ciucllled," Vetse 5.
That join faith," etc In patt Hev.
Mr. Doty said:
Paul was an Ideal Christian minister,
emboiMng us tat as nuv one ever has
dune all tho elements ol success 'fo n,
gnat possibilities of (htuie griatiitss
weie offtrcd, whin, as a .vniing man ho

IGXOHKD SOCIAL POSITIOX.
Hut strangely enough Paul ns a preach
er of the CIospi), luioiis Ids hiicl.ll posi
tion In llfe, makes no dspla ot his
hearing and Ioms eight of lilmsilf In the
presentation of his all-lmportniit theme,
Jesus Clulst and him ituclllul To Paul
no otlur theme was worth.v of considera
tion when upportiirllj offend for him
to speak what was uppermost In his
mind
I wish tlrt to spenk 0f cut-iit and
lllni ciucllltd Paul s knowledge of Jesus
print to his conversion had been t,nlned
Hum thosu who were piejudlced against
the Xiiz.irine. Hut his visit to Damascus
and the revelation ho thero received
changes! his estimate of the crucified
Son of Hod.
Like iminv otheis he thought he ought
to do manv things cnntrnr.v to this Jesus
of Xnraretli The law of Moses and the
titidltions of the elders found In Saul a
firm adhetent, nnd nlthough mlstnken In
his views concerning the Xazaiine. he
held himself to a btilct accountability to
Ood What wonder then, that seeing
the llflit and hearing tho audible volco
of Clod, Saul's estimate of Jesus under
went a radical t lunge. What marvel If
being convinced of his enor In persecut
ing the disciples of Christ, he himself
should become one ot the dlMlples of
Jesus
The spirit of conviction prepand him
fot this change and accustomed as he
had always been to follow his convic
tions, how could he do otbei wise than em.
hiace Christ'' He would not have been
true to hlmiaelf If after the call of tint
Divine ' o'ce be had not become a foi
lower of the Jesus whom he hitherto had
perse cuted
Paul converted. Is a new creature. He
begins u new life. Hvperlenees such ji
lei ling toward C.od and man, ns Sinl
had never experienced In nil his campaign
of persecutions. I'mm heneforth Paul's
cnosiimlng zeal for the cnusi of Clulst
Is n surprise to the world. With Inex
pressible Jov he saw tlie power of God
unto salvation come upon men through
tlie preaching of the Uinpel of Jesus
Christ.
CHRIST CIU'CIPIED.
In "Christ Ciucllled," he saw the
subllmest revelation of God s gieat love
to man
On the cross lu beheld God's onlj be
gotten Son, loaded down with a weight
)t "Ins not His own, blood How lug from
man a wound as an atonimenl for hu

moved He appealed to the world, Jew
and Gentile, to accept the offer of free
salvation thioilgh Jesus Christ tho cru
cified. Again Paul baw In the ciucllixlnn of
Christ the most startling proof of tin
man ilepravitv. Xever had the win Id
looked upon such a friend to humanlt
befoie, nnd never had man been so bit
terly persecuted as He
Christ the teacher excelling In wisdom

Phjslclin He healed all ellseasis 4
friend to ilch and poor alike He fed me
liungrv and relieved the opprcsst.il Yet
the high priests, scribes .mil Pli irlsees

I speak of the e'ruilfied Christ as a

to a large audience upon "The He

part
Just whj the African negro remained
a barbarian or a heathen while other
race varieties have gone forward through
the ages fiom heathenism to Christian
ll! and from snvanei.v to civilization,
cannot be full explained, because it
cannot be full understood There are
man who believe Ihnt in Hie great
diama of huinnnll, etieh uico has been
assigned Its part, and that the negro
rare Is the oldest of all races, and long,
long ago, enacted Its part as the leading
race nnd has since lapsed Into Its pres
ent condition.
This view Is stoutly defended by mall
of the most prominent negio scholars
of America. It makes no difference to
these sturdy mm that history and mod
ern opinion is against them They are
svvaved b passion, they believe that It
somehow ennobles the race If, to Its re
motest ancestors, can be attributed the
glories of ancient Egvpt. They do not
see that, to follow their theory to Its
logical cenelusion, tliev slmpl s.iv that
the negro race Is ,1 pl,ied out actor on

anil that It has no fiittue
The voung negrnis aro taught to be

D senior bishop of the African Meth

opposite belief
He sis "That the negro race Is the
Junior race that has not et plaved Its

not In the past " He does not Interpret
the prophecy that "Ethiopia shall stretca

Ho believes tint the figure refers to a

Argues That Certnln Passages of
Scripture Dealing with Healing
Should Not Be Bead Liteially, But
Interpreted to Menu Spiritual
Healing Pnmllel Passages Which
Say "Jesus Healed" nnd "Jesus
Taught" It Was Not Physical
Diseases Apostles Weie to Cure.
Dr .T C Bateson delivered a highly
Interesting unit Instructive rehire li.st
evening- In the Dudley l BaptlU
chinch, Duninote, tiikliiir as his nub
Ject "Faith and Medicine."
The fentute of his address was an
ntgument that manv of the passages
of Sctlpture dealing with "healing,
which ate generally taken to mean
physical healing, should not be lend
literally, but Intel preted to mean
"spiritual healing" He said. In sub
stance. 'In ctinent Jewish thought nt the
time of Clulst the sinbollsm of death
was applied to those who were "dead
In sin," blindness wns applied to de
ficiency of spiritual vision, lameness to
spiritual Inactivity It was said 'In the
coming nges the saints shall l.ilse the
elead as Ellas ellei.' What dead" The
converted or pioselytes'' The langunge
of Jesus continues this Jewish usunge
'Let the dead buty their dead. The
dead shall hear the voice of the Son
of Cod '
"Hence we virtually Infer that when
He said to the twelve. 'Halse the dead,'
He meant 'mnke convet ts ' The pio
cess of ti .instating the Gospel from
Eastern metaphor nnd poetry Into
Greek prose might easily give rise to
the Idea of miracles where nn miracle
was Intended Thus we find parallel
passages saying that Jesus 'healed,'
while another savs that he 'taught.
which suggests that the healing Is a'
misunderstanding of a work Intended
to mean 'spiritual' healing or 'teach
ing.' (See Matt.. 14 14, nlso Mark, C 34:
compate Mark, 10.1 with Matt , 10 2 )
"In the pai.ible of the sower. In Isa .
6.9-10. Matthew has 'lest I should heal
them.' Mark 'lest their sins should be
foi given.' 'Heal the sick, fieely ye
have lecelved, freely give.' As they
had freely received spiritual life, sn
they were to Imoart It. Evidently It
was not literal disease they were to
cure
'Thus we may Infer thnt when gieat
multitudes were spoken of as healed at
one time It was spiritual cure that was
effected. The healing miracles were
numerous enough to confirm Christ's
claims to divlnltv, but not so numer
ous as to overshadow His spiritual
purpose.
"The Xew Testament now here teaches
that any shall be healed of disease
simply by faith Even Paul did not
gt rid of the thorn In the flesh, but
received instead ' My grace is sufficient
for thee "
"All healing Is divine for It Is a pro
cess or law created by God and not
by physicians
In Eccleslasticus Is written more
than two thousand yenrs ago the fol
lowing Instruction
'"The Lord hath ci fated medicines
out of the earth. And he that Is vvlso
will not abhoi them. Mv son. in thy
sickness be not negligent but pray
unto the Lord that he will make thee
whole. Leave off from sin and older

place to the physician for thou base
need of him Theie Is a time when
In tin Ir hnnds theie Is good "iiccess
For they shall also pray unto the
Lord, that he would prosper that which
they give for ease and to prolong life '"
Jesus said the sick need a phvslelan
Then let us not d 'splse the testimony
