In Church of Individual Dominion, Bed. ford avenue and Madison street, the pastor, Rev. Francis Edgar Mason, will lee ture this morning at 10.46 upon "The Vino and Its Branches" T'r.

A committee from (he church was appointed to confer with the Brooklyn Baptist Church Extension Society about the carrying out of this project The free discussion, the good will, the brotherly consideration and sympathy with the interests of other churches, and the Anal unanimity with which the wholep roceedings were brought to a close speak volumes for the success of the movement.

He found that the Occident had much, to learh from the Orient In reverence for religion, and that there was no 'impassable gulf between the Western and Eastern modes of thought: he was convinced that Christianity la adaptable 1 to all races, but that the best work can be done only when Christian Ideas can be translated, not simply Into native, tongues, but Into terms of Eastern philosophic thought.

LONG ISLAND NOTES. WANTS DEPRESSED TRACKS. lr" 6 I u. To the Bdltor of TSm Standard Union: New York City and Brooklyn are thirty years behind the age aa to passenger traffic, and the only solution now is underground railroads and tunneis under the river. The controversy now going on between the property-owners and the Brooklyn Rapid Transit, who live altmg1 the Brighton Beach Railroad, Is whether ths railroad shall erect an elevated railroad or sink same underground.

Of course, the railroad says elevate because It Is cheaper; but, on the other hand, the property-owners say depress tracks. Ths elevated will be an eyesore, and depreciate property. myself, living near Kings Highway and the B. B. R.

If same Is elevated, would have to sell out at once and take a loss, and who will compensate me? It seems It is in ths hands of the Grade Crossing Commission, and I hope these gentlemen will see that if an elevated Is erected It -Will only, be few years before I same will be Inadequate. The cost will not be enormous, considering the stratum of ths ground, being sand, part of which can be UBed( for making concrete. Brooklyn Is not depopulating, and I property-own ers all along the line will make a protest. Yours truly, ALFRED H. MARVIN.

The Windsor Baptist Church of Windsor Terrace, Is entering upon a new stage In lta development.

Recently the church has been greatly quickened, and is now strong and aggressive factor in the religious life of the neighborhood The success which has attended the efforts of the present pastor, Rev. James Buchanan, very gratifying, not only to the adherents of the church but to the whole community. More especially has this been so on account of the breadth of view with which the work has been. Inaugurated and prosecuted. A vigorous appeal has been made to all who have no local church affiliation.

The kingdom and purpose of Jesus Christ have been empha slsed. While the growth of the church has been remarkable, It is a notable and praiseworthy fact that not a single member haa been added from the other churches In the community. In the va rious departments of church work adaptation to the various ages and dispositions is carefully and Intelligently applied. The respectful and dignified be-lavior of the boys and girls attending the different classes In this church forms quite a commentary on the oft-repeated accusations regarding the perversity of our children. The sphere of the Influence of the church has been largely expanded.

It has not only become a centre for Baptists from Windsor Terrace, but It has reached out, and now Includes many adherents from West Flatbush and Kensington, where no Baptist church exists. The Finance Committee, aware of the expanding Influence and increasing Interest, realised that the situation should be fully met and permanently solved. At a meeting called for this purpose a full statement of the situation was clearly put before the congregation, which waa Invited to discuss the question In all Its bearings. It soon became evident that a strong conviction which hae marked the tendency of the age In large cities, had become firmly rooted also In this vicinity; that the home-centres lying in the outskirts of our Urge cities need, not more littla struggling churches dotted sli over, but larger and better equipped churches, a here those moving from the central churches will find the same conditions existing as In old surroundings. With this In view It was unanimously resolved that the present site was not the proper eentre at which to seek the establish- NEWS OF THE WEEK.

On the background of the narrative four exceedingly Interesting figures appear In olearcut outline. Each Is unlike the others. All stand for distinct but different Ideas. Each helps to an understanding of the other. Altogether, aside from religion, this ancient literature makes exceedingly Interesting reading.

Tha quickiy-shlftlnc i scenes give vivid views of Ilfs thea thousand years ago. But as the fundaments' principles of human life are tha same everywhere and always, we have here striking Illustrations of the riee, progress and end of right and wrong Ideals of life. Samuel Is a towering personality In Hebrew history. A great man and patriot. His whole career lifts him above suspicion of self-seeking.

He has the Incidental attractiveness of one in whose person one lino closes and another begins He was last of Judges, first of prophets. It was under Samuel-that the form of government changed. The1 theocracy became a monarchy. That most unlqua form of government In the history of the world had maintained for four hundred years. God was King.

The tabernacle was his palare. The wings of the cherubim were his throne. But the people wanted a change. They had perhaps been ridiculed by their neighbors as a headless nation. They coveted also the pomp and circumstances of royalty.

Then, too, they were restive under the rule of the theocracy which held them to the highest Ideals of personal and civic righteousness. The cry was raised, A king like other nations! The outcome of 8amuele wise and patriotic service was monarchy like, yet unlike, that of surrounding nations. Tha ultimate deposit from the fervent heat of this bloodless revolution was a theocratic monarchy God ruling yet, but -through kings of bis own selection and limited by terms which he had prescribed. Samuel effect'd this constitutional change with the master hand of a statesman, and for this causa would deserve a place In the gallery of immortal patriots. Saul i one of the weirdest characters of history.

He had an heroic physique ferfgantlc suture, ruddy countenance, piercing eys and at start an ingenuous spirit. He quickly developed capacity for kingship. Ha could keep his own counsel. He knew how to Ignore the discourtesy of a recalcitrant minority. Ha went back to a bucolic life, biding his time and the opportunity to show his generalship and valor and use his office for the deliverance of the people.

The cause and growth of his madness makes a study In psychology. Browning describes Saul In a word, as gl- gantlc and blackest of all. The final rejection of Saul was not an arbitrary piece of caprice on the part of Providence. It was Just as necessary aa the expulsion from the orchestra of the musician who will not observe the directors baton. Saul 1 malignantly persisted In striking false notes and spoiling the harmony of a Divine svmphony.

He was repeatedly admonished and given new opportunities, but he was bent on striking such notes as he pleased. The bloody denouement came at length In the Irretrievable defeat at Mount Gllboa, when the spectral words uttered In the i cave at Endor bad their fulfillment. History, profane nor sacred, contains a mors awful Instance of conscious, inveterate assertion of human selfhood against a declared purpose of the Almighty. Thus, as ever, the hammer broke, the anvil remained. David Is one of the widest characters of history.

He stretches over a whole octave of possible human experiences. This constitutes his perennial fascination. It is as If all the hopes and fears, defeat and triumphs of all human lives, were poured Into thla one life. That makes him an all-mens mate and fellow. The biography of this myriad-sided man la accompanied by the Immortal Psalms.

He learned In suffering what be taught In song. David was certainly Gods man for that hour of Hebrew history. The kingly office was matched by a kingly character. The manifold and Imperative exactions of a position which has no precise parallel In history were met by a versatile character, developed and Inured to meet those exactions. David could both compose battle hymns for his army and In person lead to battle.

He could both make law and administer It. He could maintain the delicate equllllb-Hum between the recluse and the man of affairs. With a master hand he changed the whole face of Hebrew history. Like a series of startling pictures the Incidents of David's career follow each other In the sacred narrative; the shepherd beys encounter with the giant; thq Jealous and murderous attempt of the mad king upon the life of his armor-bearer; the Immortal friendship; the sparing of a murderous foe. Jonathan Is the mildest character In this Immortal quartet.

He Is the synonym of friendship. He discovered, appreciated end loved David. That Is hts chief claim to distinction. David's noble spirit bloomed like a fair Illy on the reeking dunghill of Saul's sordid court and camp. Jonathan was struck with consuming admiration.

He had found his fellow. His own dauntless and devout heart was mated. The Ideal friendship which then sprang up was rooted in a common theocratic faith Both believed In Jehovah and the Immanence of hla government In Israel. The mutuality of their faith accounts, not only for the origin of their friendship, but for Its phenomenal strength and perpetuity. COURT OF SPECIAL SESSIONS.
