Murphy expects to havo everything moving before Wednesday, and coal from ,lt will surely be sent to market next week. The washery has already been In operation for the pur pose of testing tho machinery, and everything has worked satisfactorily. At present, the company is arranging to install another buller and this, with other improvements on the machinery new installed, will give ample power lor the operation of the plant. The disposal of refuse from the washery, which was thought to be a serious problem, has been solved by the building of a plane up the side of tho culm pile, over which the refuse will be hoisted In cars and dumped In the woods to the west of the pile. There is a lot of excellent coal in the culm pile, and It is the general opinion that tho washery can be operated at very good profit. It will give employ ment to about fifty men and boys.

Christian Religion Not Mado Up of a Eow Detached and Inco herent Doctrines. "Gamallel's Cautious Counsel" was the topic of the sermon preached yes terday morning In tho First Presby tcrlun church by Rev. James McLeod, V. D. He said- In part: Tlia Christian religion, with ltd marvelous his tory, nnd with Its Messed results Is not nude up of a fen- detached and Incoherent doctrine On the contiary it is, ni a. whole anil in all IU parti, coherent and sjmmetilral. It Is a llfo as well ai a creed, and the foundation article of both Its creed and iti llfo Is Jesus Christ. So tho apostles taught, nnd so we must leach, 'flic only ministry that lias any rlitht to the claim of the Apostolic Succession Is the mlnhtiy that conforms to apostolic- doctrine, and that is Imbued with the apostolic cpliit. The apostles ditl not ttudy to please men; their aim was to please God. They did not polish tho ariuvvs of truth so as to take otf the barb; on the con trary their arrows were well barbed, and well feathered, and well aimed; and when they wcie shot, they never missed tho marl;, anil hence their arrows were sharp In the heart of their Klnit'i enemies, 'lliey did not content themselves Mlth teaching ethic-,, or with preaching a iroody goody pospel. They did not consent to cnduie persecution, and to sutler martjicloni, in ordtr that they might preach about laws-, and theories, ar.d hypotheses, and codes of tnoials, and a mote or less elaborate theology. No indeed. If they had confined themselves to that fort of preach ing, they would neer have felt the pain of a Itoiuau lash; they would iwver have borne In their bodies the marks of the Loul Jcmis; their bums would never have been adorned with mar t.vis' tiouns. They weic not trlniuieis. '1 hey wele not opportunists. They were manly. They were couiageous. They were faithful. They weio fearless and valiant soldicis of Jesus Christ v,ho.-e medals were sens, and uhoso victories wuu won by their heiolc self-saciiflcc and by the simple but mighty power of truth. "They ciacd not lo teach and picach Jesus Cliiist." As we think- of the past and of the present, an; we not fully justified In Frying that the contests and conquests of Christianity are the strongest, the mightiest, nnd the most complete of any this world has ever witnesjed? 'Hie ullgion of Jesus began with the declaration of a war of extermination against all other lcligiou. On the one side were marshalled the majority and might of all the great powers of the world Jews, decks and Rom-ins. The Jews, with their pride of blith and their icvcrence for antiquity; with their temple and their priesthood, and with their self-itglitcmu claim that they weio heaven's only faorites; the Cireeks, with their philosophy, and their art, and their strange injthology and their gross idolatry, and their high intellectual endowment; the llomans, witli their pomp, and their power, nnd their pride, and their laws, and their genius for gmcrment; the great world powers and their gods were ar la.vcd ou one side. On the other side stood a few "unlearned and isnorant men." They hid no prestige, no social standing, no wealth, and seaieely a Iriend. Hut they had Jesus Christ on their side, and tho whole world knows the lesult, Judai-ni burned out in the fires of its own temple; idolatry fell like a smitten Dagon; hcathin philosophy i-. entombed in what is now n dead language; lfjr barians were evangelied and civilized; Spiln heaid the fiospel; Britain einbiaecd she tiutli; lahiopia. stretched out her hinds, and I'gjpt and North Afiiea beard the good news; ;aul bowed before the eioss; the Druids abandoned their inhuman Tites and supeitltions; the (folks gave up (heir war gods for the Prince of Peace; the light of the gospel shone on India's coral strand; anthems of praise to Christ wete sun In all languages; and the noble army of mar- tjrs carried the gospel banner faither than iwer the imperial legions had carried the uitorlous Itonian banner. How complete (be victory! Take religions weic rebuked and crushed, and all but annihilated. The idolatries Classic, Diuidic, Scandinavian, Kgjptlan an- rlean gone from the faec of the earth. The artifice of priests, the great army of mighty king-., the reieienee fur antiquity, and fcr old religions that weic cherished for u tlioa and jears, the combined forces of mighty ni tidis could not omthrow Christianity, 'Hie sword of truth, iu the bands of a few heroic men who wire full of the Holy Choit pi iw ailed, until at last Hie world aekiiowlcdsid the tiutli of Juli.inV reluctant confession when he said; "O Galilean, Thou hisl conquered!"

POVERTY OP JESUS CHRIST p LENTEN DISCOURSE BY REV. DR. ROGERS ISRAEL. Rector of St. luko's Church Xast Night Compared tho Miserable Sur roundings of tho Savior's Llfo Hero on Earth with tho Comparative Luxury Enjoyed by Motlorn Chris tians Ho Taught Men a Lesson In Sclf-Donial and in Contentment with Thoh Surroundings. Rev, Dr. Rogers Israel, rector of St. Luke's church, delivered an Informal Lenten discourse last night before a largo congregation, on the poverty of Christ as compared with tho compara tive luxury of tho majority of modern day Christians. Ho spoke, In part, ns follows: "Lot us think for n llltlo while, my friends, of tho humanity of God. Let us recnll God as the creator and ruler of heaven and earth, possessed of nil knowledge and all power, whose glory Is so great that when It enlightened the face of Moses ho was obliged to cover himself with a veil before he appeared before the gaso of men. "Lot us remember that this wonder ful Spirit, dwelling beyond our ken, came down to earth, entered the womb of a woman and became man. With out what followed, there is poverty In the very fact that this great and mighty God left Ills high place In heaven, left the worship of heavenly legions and entered Into human flesh to suffer as wo suffer and to bo held with in the narrow boundailes of our flesh. This, however, does not constitute all of what might be called tho poverty of God. "When Christ was born He was born In an humble manger and was not cradled In the luxury of a rich man's home. His parents were humble people and the carpenter's house of .Tosenh was an humble abode. It was not the carpenter's house of today, with car pets on tho floor, and china and napery. It was so mean that it would scarcely be considered a home In these days. It was simply what we would call a poverty-stricken house. HIS MOTHER'S GIFT. "When His mother took Him to the temple that she might be purified, she could not afford to offer a new lumb as an offering. Her gift was a pair of pigeons. Christ lived for thirty years amid tho poverty of Joseph's home and bore with His surroundings with infin ite patience. When the time came for the accomplishment of Ills mission, He lived among the lowly. Often he wan dered about the hillsides of Judea with no place to rest His head, and when He did find shelter it was with the humblo Usher folks, who were His followers. A poor existence, aye, a miserable one, yet He endured it of His own free will, for He was a being of infinite power. "Our lives, poor though we may be, are lives or luxury compared with His, feu- have wo not a roof over our head and a fire iu our stove? Christ lived in poverty for us, but does He ask us to live In abject need ourselves? No, Ho does not. Thoughtless people some times interpret His words to mean this. "When He fold certain men to go, sell all they had and follow Him, He meant just what He s.ild. Ho meant that those who were to he His personal fol lowers while on earth should live in poverty like Himself, but He did not mean it ns an injunction to be handed clown the ages. "He came in all reahonableness lo teach men how to live. If we would seek His message to us we must seek it in His words to tho general crowd, and not lu His suggestions to those whom He wlMicd to be His personal followers. He taught men to live a self-denying life within their spheres of action and to ho content with their surroundings. He did not seek to stifle ambition for higher and nobler things, but He did seek to kill the worldly spirit that preys on tne souls or men. SET AN EXAMPLE. "Ho set us an example of a religious, icasonable, devout life, an example that wc should resolutely follow. Wo should so model ourselves after the divine man that vc could be known to all the world ns a faithful follower of Christ. "Christ appeals not only to the rich and poor and the conditions of the present, but to the condition of things as they ought to ho In u spiritual sense. He places us In a position where, If wc aro true believers, we must feel tho neceshity of taking up the cross for the Lord Jesus. "What should this cross be? It should bo the cross of obedience. Obedience to touch us to worship the Master by ordi nance, sacrament and prayer. Obedi ence to honesty, truth, sincerity anil purity. 1'eoplo say that obedience In Impossible, but it is not if It has to do with the heart mid desire. "I wish, my friends, that you could learn to compiehend tho great truth that the Scriptures tiro one in the New Testament; Hint we should not take ono expression and curry Ha fulfillment to extremes, Ignoring nil tho rest, hut that we hhould take tho teachlnss ono by ono and put them together, until they form a rounded whole."

O V Tho poor showing mado last 'Wed nesday night by the South Side nnd Llederltranz teams In the City Bowling League has necessitated tho reor ganization of both, and when play is started next Wednesday night beveral new men will be found in each. From present Indications, It does not seoin likely that tho team3 in this league will mako anything llite tho showing made by the teams In the Northeast ern League. There are only two, or perhaps three, reully strong teams in the league, and tho others will have Just about got down to playing match games fairly well when tho season ends, The bowline adufte that "a team bowls best on its own nllcys" has tin application as far as the Electric City Wheelmen's team Is concerned. This team, new at the business, started out tho season by winning from the strong Backus and Green Ridge Wheelmen's teams on Its own alleys and secured first place, to the great surprise of everyone interested lu bowling. The members of tho team came over to the central city last Monday night pre-1 I BOWLING.

It would Feem Hko a race for first place between tho Arllngtons, Hampes and Centrals after a few more games have been played. The Arllngtons, who are now in tho lead, secured first placo by winning six straight games ?rom the South Side team, a feat which wouldn't be a very hard task for any live very ordinary bowlers to perform, so that when they bump up against some of Hie stronger teams they will have to play a stlffer game. M A gang of Brunswick-Balke-Collen-der men are In the city, fixing up the Green Ridge Wheelmen's alleys These alleys are only a year old, but the members of tho club have de cided that It is best to renovate them once a year and thus keep them prac tically as fast as when first laid. It Is probable that tho game scheduled for Monday night between tho Green Itldgo Wheelmen and tho Electric; City Wheelmen will have to bo postponed. l O Billy Hopkins, of the Backus team, Isn't having thiuss all his own way In the second serifs of games.
