Competition in the Pulpit
OR
It has long been apparent that
there are more physicians than
@an secure a paying practice,
more lawyers than profitable
clients, and more teachers than
schools) It is now claimed that
this overproduction has reached
the pulpit, and that preachers far
outnumber churches, and that the
#eonominational colleges, theolog-~
ical seminaries and the various
ehurch societies for helping
young men to an education are
still swelling the army of young
clergymen who are crowding the
older cnes out of their pulpits.
This over production of clergy-
men is not confined to any one of
the Protestant denominatione,
although it is perhaps most con-
spicnous in the Congregationalist
and Methodist bodies. Boston
has a Congregational board of
pastoral supply organized to find
pastors for churches and churches
for pastors, with the result. that
New England is oyerrun with
clergymen without pulpits. The
evilis quite as apparent in the
Methodist Episcopal denomina~
tion. There is scarcely an
annual conference held any more

Is Amen Passing Away
It is to be feared that the
amen is losing some of its popu-
larity. It is not considered
exactly othe thing� in somc city
congregations. We can almost
See sometimes a shudder run
over the congregation when an
amen leaps red hot from the heart
of some brother and explodes
amid the fricid stillness of the
formal service. Is the amen
passingaway? Godforbid. Has
the fact of its decadence any
connection with the spiritual
coldness of the Church? We
fear that it has. Political gaths
erings, operas, lectures, etc., are
not considered complete without
the presence of the secular ameng
in the form of applause. Why
Should the sacred amen be
considered out of place in God's
sancluary ? It comes down to us
through the hoary centuries
puder the sanction of Jehovah.
Zt hes been thrilled and illamina-
by the Holy Ghost: It has a
place among us. Its place is too
often vacant. Let us reviyify
and reinstate the amen."North

SpainTs Losses in the Cuban War
The accuracy of the figures
that were recently published in
the Sun relative to the losses of
the Spanish army in Quba is con-
firmed by the statements of the
Havana correspondent of the
Diario de Barcelona, that the
killed and wounded have num-
bered between 65,000 and 70,000
men, or about 20,000 a year.
This is a record of losses that
has hardly ever been equalled in
any war of moderna times ; and. as
we understand the record, 1t does
not include the many thousands
of invalid soldiers who haye been
shipped from Havana to Spain.
It is a huge sacrifice to her pride
that Spain has made. [t is the
price she has paid for Cuba with-
out any assurance that she will
retain possession of Cuba. She
has dissipated her strength in an
effort for which there 1s not any
promise of success. She cast her
sons ana hertreasure into a pit
from which thers is no .deliyer.-

As to Importing Eggs, ktc
Some things are imported into
the United States from foreign
countzies which our own farmers
shculd produce. During eight
mouths of the present year we
have bought from abroad over a
million and a half eggs. During
the same months of 1896 we
bought about four and a half
milliong. With corn so abundant
that wo have no market for it,
our farmers should have eggs to
sell to the rest of the world after
supplying this country. During
the same eight months of 1397 we
imported nearly a hundred and
fifty million pounds of rice and
rice meal, 7,300,000 pounds of
cheese, 21,573 pounds of butter.
These are a few oftheitems. All
of them might have been raised
at home."Baltimore Sun.

Big Raulroad Figures
There are over 450,000 mules of
railway in operation in the world
and, according to Mr. Robert P.
Porter, the centnry will close with
over 500,000. Of the present
number, just about one half are
in this country. The cost of
railroads all over the world, thus
far, has been $36,685,000,000, and
it is estimated that the street
railways cost $2,500,000,000. The
railroads employ almost 5,000,000
of people. Those are big figures,
but the railroads represent a vast
interest in the worldTs wealth.

Birth Whom Her Father Tarned Away, "
Among the thousands of docu-
{ments stored in the statehouse in
Boston are three letters and part of
the days when Massachusetts was
a province governed by Thomas
Hutchingon. . It isa story that has
not been known to the world and
not even to the personal friends of
those interested. The characters in
this romance are a titled lover, a
father who refused his sanction to a
proposed marriage and a New Eng-
land maiden who died in ignorance
of both the love and the loverTs vain
plea. Some letters are missing.
The first document in the story. is
a letter to Governor Hutchinson,
dated April 6,1771. The writer was
William, son of Lord Fitzwilliam,
and in this letter he recites his love
for the governorTs daughter, telling
his story with old time courtesy.
He gays: oI have had the honor of
seeing Miss Hutchinson, but have
never spoken to her. I need not tell
you I admire her when I say that I
wish to call her mire.�T The lover
pleads for the fatherTs consent to
visit the daughter ~~as the most
honorable method of proceeding to
~getting acquainted with her.TT Gov-
ernor HutchinsonTs methodical re-
ply in duplicate, in his own cramped
handwriting, is preserved. In it he
Bays:
~~In my station I should, from re-
spect to my Lord Fitzwilliam, think
it my duty to do all in my power to
discourage his son from so unequal
a match with any person in the
province, and I should most certain-
ly be highly criminal if I should
countenance or encourage a match
with my own daughter. I trust you
will think this a sufficient reason for
my not acceding to your proposal,
and I sincerely wish you happy ina
person more suited to your birth
and rank, and who may be approved
of by your honorable parent.�T
At this point there is a gap in the
story. The young man evidently
wrote a second time, but neither the
second letter nor the governorTs re-
ply is in the archives. It is certain,
though, that the governor did not
relent,and in a third letter the young
man craved a personal interview, as
the ship to which he was attached,
the Boston, was to sail that day,
not, as he says, ~~that I shall desire
you to give me the least encourage-
ment with regard to my former let-
ter, but as I think it necessary to
wait on you.TT There is no record of
the interview, but it must have been
a sad one if held, for the governor
was a kind hearted man and a de-
voted husband, who never forgot to
celebrate as the happiest day of his
life the anniversary of his wedding.
The beautiful Miss Hutchinson for
whose hand the young man was su-
ing was the governorTs second
daughter, Margaret, of whom the
father always speaks in his letters
and journal as ~~Peggy.TT Peggy was
but 17 years old when the letters
were written, and she died of con-
sumption at Chelsea, England, when
she was 23, The delicate beauty
which young William admired so
much arose partly from her con-
sumptive tendencies. For several
years the family was in England.
According to the fatherTs journal,
he called upon the queen on Aug.
28, 1777. ~~The queen asked where I
had been,� he writes, ~~and I told
her I had been six months in the
country with my sick daughter. The
queen expressed the hope that she
would soon recover.TT But Peggy
died on the 2ist of the following
month. Almost on that same date
her father wrote in his diary that
her majestyTs. ship the ~Boston was
again on the Massachusetts coast.
There is nothing in any of the gov-
ernorTs journals to show that Peggy
was ever told of young FitzwilliamTs
that the young man ever saw the.
~girl of his early love after the father
had crushed hope out of his heart.
