Her death, coming aa it did right ia the full flower ef young womanhood, is a sad one and ia made particularly-so by tbe motherless infant, tbe first born, about a fortnight old and a young has-, bead who survives her.

Sinee then women's missionary societies have multipled in every denomination, and, through their influence, interest in missionary work has widen ed and deepened and, also, notably, have funds increased to send fortn the heralds of salvation. Msny women have gone as missionaries to heathen lands and gained effective entrance to that part of the population which no man can hope to reach in any way but the most superficial and unsatisfactory. The object of the jubilees now being held is threefold. 1st.

To erystalise the interest already awak- ened. unto some detinue form oi service, and to give every woman an opportunity to become a real vital factor in giving the glad Gospel of the Son of God to the non-Christian world. 2nd. To make this new vision a lasting stimulus to a deeper spirit ual life, a call to more fervent prayer, an incentive to more intelligent study of the fields abroad and the problem at home. 3rd.

PHILADELPHIA ATHLETI03 AGAIN CHAMPIONS, Defeat New Tork Giants by the Ov- erwhelminf Score of 13 to 2. Philadelphia, Oct. 26. Haill Philadelphia Athletics. Champions of the world for the second successive vear.

In an exhibition of batting seldom seen in a premier baseball series, the American League team this afternoon defeated New York in the sixth game of the set by the overwhelming score of 13 to 2, thus giving them tbe lour necessary games out of the six played to carry off baseball's greatest honor. It was more than am ere defeat for the Giants it was a rout. Philadelphia is celebrating tonight i it has never before observed great baseball victory. To defeat New York in revenge lor tbe trouncing me National Leaguers gave them in iwk, was almost as pleasing to the Athlet ics as winning the world's champion ship With the victory goes 60 per cent of 412710.61. or $76,746.37 of which each Athletic player will receive 654.59.

The loser will receive 164.24. or t2.436.39 for each New York olaver. The batting matinee that the Ath letics gave waa one of the nnest ex hibitions of offensive playing seen at Shibe park in a long time, coming from behind after New York had scor ed one run in the first inning the Athletics tied the score in the third in ning, won it in the fourth by making four runs, made it a little safe in tbe sixth when they added another ran and crushed the Giants in the seventh inning Under an avalanche of seven hits, which, with a eouple of mishaps, added seven more runs to the total. Tbe sensational hitting of the pitchers the New Yorkers sent in to the box roused the excited crowds to the greatest enthusiasm. With victory in their grasp the Atletics appeared to let down and When the sevenin inning was over the cheering thousands started to leave the grounds.

The strutting National League champions sent in three pitchers, to stem the tide, but all were bit almost alike, Wiltse getting tbe worst wnai-ing. The other two were Ames, who started the game, and Marquard, who followed wiltse into ine oox. iuir-teen hits for a total of 17 bases was the total shown by the hit column when the game waa over. Comedy abounds in "The Rosary" which cornea here next Tuesday, despite the impressions that might be gained otherwise by the title of the play. The comedy is the unexpected feature of this play.

hn. fonriTs- than bromiaes an amended Ufa to Ood. Let ma aay in passing that tbe Bible does not teaeh that God's real chil dren never commit sin, but it does teaeh that tbe true child of Ood who has sinned will never be satisfied until be hat set himself right with Ood. I call your attention to the three main ideas in these verses: Ws have a great confession. There arc two things that characterise this' confession: 1.

It is full and frank. David makes no effort ta excuse or to palliate his sin. Ha uses several words to describe his conduct, transgressions," "mine iniquity," "my sin." He describes his own conduct in these dark words. He waa honest with him- Wf and God. 2.

ilia confession is intensely personal. It was his own sin that David confessed. Throughout these verses e' makes no reference to any one else Hs uses only- tha first personal pronoun me, my, mine." Here we need to atop and reflect It is so easy for us to try to excuse and palliate our own sin and to condemn the sins of others! The sinner is troubled on account of the sins of the church member; church mem bers arc worried on account of toe sins of their brethren. When, if we were honest with ourselves, we would discover that each one has enough to do to deal with God for hia own sins. We need, like David, to shut out from our minds all thought of others and to confess to Ood the sins of our own individual heart.

Thia great confession is followed by: II. A great prayer. David prays for fonrspeeifle blessings: 'l It For fonriveneee-'BIot out my transgressions." He desired that Ood should wipe but tbe record of his sin, forgive it. Doubtless all of us pray thia part of the prayer. But David goes 2.

He prays for purification. Pnrge me with ayssop," "wash me thoroughly from none iniquity and cleanse me from my sin." He not only wished to be forgiven, but he desired to be cleansed that he might not fall into the sin again. A man's prayer for fomveness is not sincere unless it comes from a deep desire to be puri fied from sin, 3. David prays for the continued presence of tbe Spirit. JUc felt though he stood on the edge of a great precipice, and he plead that Ood should not east him away, not take hia Holy Spirit from him.

Doubtless he remembered how the Spirit of Ood left Saul and an evil spirit took With this in mind David oloada that this fearful doom might not be bin. We need to remember that the Spirit of Ood does not dwell in fullness and power in unclean hearts. 4 He prays for the restoration or the iova of salvation. He had not lost hia salvation, but through sin he had lost its ioy. No man can be nap py in his religion who is conscious of wrong-doing in his life.

This is the Divine order. Forgive ness, cleansing, the power of the indwelling spirit, the joy of sweet fellowship with God. Now notice. JUL The "Then will teach transgressors thy ways and sin nera shall be converted unto Ood." If we are- to lead sinners to Ood, which is the Christian's business, we must must be sure that we must be right with God ourselves. The great need of the church of Christ throughout our land is that the church itself shall be saved, saved from worldli- ness and sin.

A saved enure a church whose religion is true and gen. nine and vital is God's agent in sav- ins? the world. Aa we earnestly request that each Christian here shall doss himself in with Ood and see first that he is right with God and then we shall be able to reach others. We need to examine our own hearts.
