Becker on the Various Phases of Human Life, Spiritual and Animal. Bishop If. J. Becker lectured at the Wabash Avenue Mission Chapel last evening for the benefit of that struggling little church. Unless there was a large advance sale of tickets unrepresented at the lecture, the proceeds will not go far toward helping out on any expense account.

The bishop talked on "Man, from the Sublime to the Ridiculous." He epoke interestingly and entertainingly. Ilia thoughts were good and clothed in good language, while his wit and humor were rich. A few of his remarks follow: The word ridiculous is not ludicrous but ridiculous, there is no fun in it, but it is ugly, nasty, hateful. Sublime docs not treat necessarily of those things which lie outside of human reach, but rny text may lie entirely within this sphere of ours. Each of us has ridicu lous moments.

In front of me is a pig, it is a hog but we'll call it a pig. It is a pig because it can't be anything else. It has a brain, an animal brain. That pig has a physical body and organs; it is a material pig. Forget it.

In the height up there, are a host of angels, created intelligent. They have spirituality but no material body. I only draw this as a contrast not a comparison. I would net be so rude as that. The pig has a physical organization but no spirituality; the angels have epiriluality but no physical structure.

I have both. So I am related to this creature and can be to them if I will. If a man neglects tbe higher demands, opportunities of his body and mind and gets down in the mire, he is: worse than a pig, which ia a hog. There is something singular about us all. My pulse beats 72 times a minute; if I excite myself it increases, if I lie down it decreasss.

The horse1 8 pulse is 34, he was created to go twice as last as a man and then his pulse would not go as fast. A camel's pulse is even slower. The heart lifts 11 tons of blood every 24 hours. So the kind creator provides that when we are tired and lie down, it lifts four ounces less a minute, giving complete rest. If I drink liquor or use tobacco, it lifts the pulse, the heart must lift two tons of blood more a day.

So he who waetes his opportunities wastes his reserve force. Man is a dual being. Each side is separate. One side could be paralyzed and the other alive, except as to speeGh because the cords of speech cross each other. Liquor affects speech and causes a thick tongue.

If the physical organs could only tell of their sufferings under liquor we would haste to rescue them. What a study there is in individuals. Some people are so very nioe and quiet in society, but at home they are perfect demons. They treat others so nicely, but the folks at home they treat inhumanly. They are the thumpers, the ones who live in their bone.The lady that paints knows she is homely.

I have seen many such stand and fuss before the looking glass for hours. It wouid seem that there was a vacancy in the angelic host and they had been called to fill it. Take the temperaments of individuals." One is as calm and cool as a Summer's day, others like a storm on duty. Bishop Becker is something of a student of phrenology and is preparing a large map of 100 heads to illustrate different traits of character and races. A few of these he had present and exhibited last night.

The Del Lio sor eteeple-headed people, great eaters, great drinkers and great in the exercise of their passions, flattened their heads by a board and crowded all their brain power to the lower back part of the head. Emerson, tne idiot, who claimed to own tbe whole of Germany, bad a bead somewhat similar. He, too, had all the animal propensities greatly developed, was a great eater and drinker, had a small head and was a great bombast. Heads of tho Indian, with his power of protection gained by his wandering nomadic life; of the fully developed, finely featured American; of the" man of Borneo, of the real African, simply after game, a slave hunter, a brute, a wretch, a murderer simply for amusement; of the Malay and the Mongolian. The last head was that of Men-den hall, the great murderer, who murdered 42 people and sighed in jail because he couldn't murder 42 more.

He had a vastness of the lower jaw, a little nose, a strangely inclined forehead, a peculiar eye. The bishop is a musician and illustrated the power of music by playing on the organ and singing songs, affecting, sentimental, sublime and ridiculous. He is also a ventriloquist and gave a pleasing exhibition of Ins powers that direction. He thought this power was a God-given sacred one and would not teach it to any one. It is a mighty power, that of the human voice and should not be used wrongly.

In conclusion he sg.id that his object in the lecture waa to bring up the things which were continually happening so that his hearers could see if life was not composed of them and what good could be got out of them. It was his object to indicate what marvelous beings we are and how we can crawl down toward the pig or ascend to the heights of. the angelic host. Man may live in the flesh or spirit.
