Why? let some one tell. Now that we are in the heat of politics, one notices an oft recurring phenomenon. It comes out of race differences. It is a curious thing that most of the prominent Hawaiians of today, —the leaders of the people, have white blood in them. Without mentioning names, it only requires a casual glance at such names to prove this point. Now, when these leaders begin to draw race lines they invariably speak of "our" blood, —"our" race, etc. One might fairly ask, "which blood?" There is never any misunderstanding however; they always mean their native blood, even though some of them are very Anglo-Saxon in appearance. Why this is so, it were hard to say, but here, as in America, the men of the most bit- ' The appointment by Pre- Governor Dole sdent j Roosevelt of Govto Become a ernor San ford B.

It places the approval of the Washington Administration upon a public officer who has been maligned by partisan enemies almost beyond any man of his time, and furnishes an example of how steadfastness of purpose in maintaining a right course has been finally able to triumph over the unscruplous and relentless persecutions of those whose hatred he had incurred in the discharge of his manifest duty. The calm and No. ii judicial attitude and temper maintained by Governor Dole through all the trying experiences through which he has passed since he became prominent in public affairs ten years ago, is sure to give him a secure place in the history of this Territory. The Territory as well as Mr. Dole himself is to be congratulated on the fact that his services are still to be retained in a position in which he will be able to enjoy the fruits of his past efforts in a life of greater quiet to himself, and in which the Islands will still have the benefit of his wisdom and experience. Mr. George R. Carter whom the President names as Governer Dole's successor will come to his office with many questions still unsolved, but with many of the olel elifficulties which confronted his predecessor removed. From the latter point of view he will be in a sense the first governor to be begin his administration uneler really American conditions. It is gratifying that a citizen of the Territory has received this appointment. REV. OLIVER P. EMERSON. It is with the deepest regret that we the resignation of our brother who has for fifteen, years past occupied the office of Corresponding Secretary of the Hawaiian Hoard, a very much longer time than any other incumbent has held that office. The members of the Board anel its committees will greatly miss Mr. Emerson's genial smile, as well as his prudent and experienced counsel anel his absorbing interest in the work of Christ's Kingdom in Hawaii. Mr. Emerson's resignation of the office became consequent upon the severe measures for retrenchment of expense necessitated by the late financial depression in Hawaii, and diminished receipts of our Treasury, combined with the fact that at this difficult juncture the American Board finally withdrew the aid which it had hitherto lent, throwing upon the Hawaiian Board the support of Mr. Emerson and some others. It was in 1888, that at the earnest call of our Board, after the death of the former Secretary, Rev. A. O. Forbes, Mr. Emerson resigned an important pastorate which he had occupied for seven years in Peacedale, R. I. His work there had been most successful, particularly among the operatives of that manufacturing town, and his departure was attended note �4 THE FRIEND by the strongest expression of regret from leading members, especially of the Hazarel family, a tlaughtcr of which became the tlistinguisheel head of Wellesley College.

ALICE GORDON GULICK. VV« are called to chronicle .the passing away of one of the noblest and most successful missionary women of this age, one whom we have learned to admire and love, not only from report, but by brief personal intercourse during two visits to Honolulu in her husband's native land. Mrs. Gulick was born in Boston, Aug. Bth, 1847, the daughter of James M. Gordon, for sixteen years the treasurer of the American Board. She was educated at Mt. Holyoke, and for two years teacher there. In Dec, 1871, she was married to Rev. Wm. H. Gulick, and went with him at once to Spain to open the mission there. For thirty years they conducted that work with ever growing success amid severe obstacles. Their center of action was San Sebastian, which has grown into a great center of Protestant education and evangelization. The most notable feature of that mission was Mrs. Gulick's great Institute for the education of Spanish girls, which with a corps of able assistants she concluded for thirty years, removing it at the opening of the Spanish-American war to the adjacent city of Biarritz in in France. So remarkable was the success of that school, that latterly its graduates repeatedly carried away the highest prizes in examinations at the University of Madrid. That work has culminated in the establishment at Madrid upon an excellent site of its own. of the International Institute for Girls, created chiefly by Mrs. Gulick's persistent and devoted personal efforts. The noble founder did not survive to witness the opening of the Institute this autumn. After a summer in Switzerland in failing health, she was taken to the home of Lady Henry Somerset in London where she nassed away September 14th. The urgent necessities of the opening of the Institute dearest to her heart had forbidden her husband to attend her last days. ()ne has but to glance at the strong, sweet, benignant features of the picture of Mrs. Gulick to recognize there a most remarkable personality. Those who knew her have glorifieel her youthful vivacity and enthusiasm, growing into spirituality and consecration, with a power of purpose anil benevolent action which Mrs. wrought its wondrous result. Gulick was the strong and successful pioneer of Woman's Education in Spain. With all the power of her loving and open-hearted nature she identified herself from the first with Spain's repressed mothers and daughters, and gave the whole strength of her genial and forceful life to their emancipation. She will always be remembered as the successful leader in that great work. It was her exhausting labor in procuring the means for the Institute that shortened her life. Mrs. Gulick's loving nature made her a blessed minister of comfort at the close of the Spanish war to the suffering Spanish prisoners at Portsmouth, and afterwards an angel of cheer and enthusiasm to the crowd of teachers from Cuba who were the guests of Harvard College. For these tasks, both her knowledge of Spanish and her loving personal magnetism eminently qualified her. Our eleepest sympathies are with the bereaved husband, who yet is blessed in over thirty years companionship with so rare and noble a soul. Together they had lately passed through successive sore and sudden bereavements of their two noble sons, to whom the mother is now restored in the home above. There many saintly ones have greeted her, high in noS. E. B. bility among them all. SIXTY YEARS AGO. The following extracts are taken from the November issue of Tiik Friend of 1843: (The U. S. Corvette "Cyane" brings George Brown, Commissioner from the Government of the United States), "on landing he was received by l'aki, and other chiefs, and presented his credentials to her Excellency, the Premier, at her own resilience." (At one o'clock that clay the Commissioner is introduced to the King—Kamehameha 111, and, among other things, he says) "Allow me to congratulate your Majesty upon the interest taken in you and your country by one of the most powerful anel free nations of the earth, as evinceel by the unanimous vote of its Representatives that a diplomatic intercourse should be opened with you. It must be a matter of great satisfaction to your Majesty to think, that while not a quarter of a cen,tury has elapsed since your country was in a state of heathenism, such progress has been maele in civilization and Christianity (Frank, wasn't it? and just a little condescending, too. One cannot help noticing that Commissioner Brown distinguishes "civilization" and "Christianity" and well he might. Poor King "Kaukeoli" was doing his best to ward off some of our American, French and English civilization, in the shape of liqours,—ineffectually too.) "Next to the gratitude clue from you to the Almighty Disposer of events, you owe under Him to those who for the welfare of your people, left their friends and country to teach them the blessing's of Christianity and the arts (some arts, Ed.) of civilization" (It seems to be probable that neither Commissioner Rrown nor the King were much accustomed to the word "Damn" before the worel missionary,— but we live in an age of progress) Religious Tolerance (Certainly "unhappy collisions" having taken place between the Catholics and the protestants, Kamehameha makes the following proclamation:—) Ist.

"My grandmother was buried here, My cousin Jane, and two uncles dear; My father perished with mortification in his thighs; My sister dropped down dead in the Minories, But the reason why I am here, according to my thinking, Is owing to my good living anel hard drinking; Therefore, good Christians, if you'd wish to live long, Beware of drinking brandy, gin or anything strong." (This THE FaiEND claims was taken from a stone in Thetford, Norfolk) Shipping. It is interesting to note the number of vessels from abroad entering these ports at that time. Between Sep. ioth and Nov. ist, there were over sixty vessels to arrive at Honolulu and thirty for Lahaina. Examination shows that this number is somewhat less than the usual quota for the winter months, particularly at Lahaina, where the whalers congregated. EXTRACTS FROM THE JOURNAL OF REV. EPHRAIM W. CLARK, A MEMBER OF THE SECOND REINFORCEMENT OF MISSIONARIES TO THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS. March 29, 1828. Off Hawaii! Last night as the wind blew almost a gale, and the Captain supposed we were near land, he shortened sail. This morning about seven o'clock, Hawaii, to our no small gratification, burst upon our view. Soon after, we hatl a delightful prospect of Mauna Kea. It raised its snow-white summit far above the clouds. We are now directing our course towards Oahu, with Hawaii and Maui in full view. March 30th. Sabbath. Through the good providence of God we have arrived off the harbor of Honolulu. Soon after our afternoon worship we hove to and a boat came to us from a ship laying at anchor. We have learned to our no small satisfaction that the missionaries now at Honolulu, are all well. Our feelings on approaching the spot to which we have been anxiously looicing forward for five long months, can be better imagined than described. Nothing can exceed the wildness of the scenery which Oahu presents as now seen from the ship. Among these moun- arrival. tains and vallies we expect to spend our lation: days in guiding souls to Jesus. We hope soon to greet some of the beloved missionaries, and rejoice and praise God with them on our safe arrival. March 31st. We have at length arrived safely at our long desired haven. Soon after we anchored last evening, we directed a line to Mr. Bingham, informing him of our arrival. Before dark, Messrs. Bingham, Goodrich, and Chamberlain came out to the Parthian and bid us a joyful welcome. The interview seemed more like the meeting of long absent friends than entire strangers, immediately on entering the cabin, Mr. Bingham exclaimed, "The Lord has been better to us than our fears." The next day Mr. Goodrich came on board to assist us in preparing to land. About eleven o'clock, most of us with part of our effects, landed on the beach about half a mile from the mission house, where we were met by Mr. Bingham anel Mr. Hunnewell. The beach was so thronged by natives eager to shake hands with the new missionaries, we could hardly press our way through them. Aloha, Aloha, resounded from a thousand mouths. ()n our way to Mr. Bingham's, we called on Kaahumanu, (the Queen Regent) and were severally in-a troduced to her. She received us with smiling countenance, and said she was much rejoiced on account of our arrival. She accompanied us to Mr. Bingham's where we met several other chiefs. We then united in offering to God a tribute of thanks for our safe arrival, and our supplications for the continuance of His blessing upon this favored mission. April 2nd. When we arrived, Boki, (the Governor of Oahu) was absent. He returned today, and soon informed Mr. Bingham, that he should be happy to meet the new missionaries. We immediately paid him our respects at the house of Kekuanaoa the commander of the standing army. Boki and the General met us a little distance from the door and politely escorted us into the house. We were then introduced to Madam Boki, Nahienaena, sister of Kauikeaouli the young King, and several other chiefs. After we were seated, Boki handed Mr. Bingham a line containing an expression of his feelings on our arrival. The following is a literal translation, "Love to you ye missionaries who have now come hither to this place. I am made joyful by you on account of your arrival here. It is God doubtless that has caused you and us to meet together just now. My heart is sorry that J was residing in another place. Na Boki." After Boki's communication was read and translated, Kaahumanu presented in writing her views and feelings on our The following is a literal trans- "Kind affection for you all, ye missionaries all, the company of kindred beloved. This is my sentiment, the love and great joy of my heart towards God, on account of His sending you hither to help us, that you and we may dwell together in the shade of His salvation, and in His name that we anel you may labor affectionately for Him. Joy is mine and great rejoicing towards you all on account of His again to support us here. sending you hither My heart thanks Gotl for our being now blessed by His causing us now personally to meet together.

After they were read and replied to, a large and elegant Bible which we brought was presented to Boki and another to Kaahumanu; also to Kaahumanu, an engraving of the Lord's Supper. Boki wished to know if the Bible contained the whole of the Word of God, and how long it would take to translate it all into the native language. After this interview we all repaired to the chapel to attend a stated service in the native language. There were a thousand or more attentive hearers present. It was a sight truly delightful to the heart of a Christian. At the close of the service two couple neatly dressed were united in marriage. Boki accompanied the missionaries to Mr. Bingham's, and took tea with them. (To be continued.) CHANGES IN CHINESE CIVILIZATION. (A part of an address before the Honolulu Ministerial Union, Oct. 18, by the Rev. W. D. Westervelt.) A student of Chinese affairs must recognize the dawn of great changes. Day rapidly follows dawn, and the changes are historical while we are looking for them in prophecy. This is very greatly true in China. While we read of superstitious China fearing disturbance of ancestors by the puffing of steamers and the song of winds along telegraph wires, the Chinese themselves organize and control the China merchant steamship line which sends a host of steamers of all sizes throughout all the waters ways of the empire without any regard to ancestors. Telegraph lines are stretched from province to province, sometimes operated by Chinese themselves. Far inland we see the Chinaman on a bicycle outrunning the ancestral ghosts. Railroads are projected and in some places are under operation.

"A promise is a promise forever," answered Lincoln, "and when made to a mother it is doubly binding." The secontl incident is brought out by the story of a temperance meeting held in 1847 near Springfield, 111., in which Lincoln manifestetl his interest in saving boys: "A large company of people bail gathered to hear the famous young lawyer. The meeting was helel out of doors, uneler the shade of the trees, and after an earnest plea for total abstinence from the use of intoxicating beverages, Mr. Lincoln proeluced a paper upon which the feillowing pleelge was printed as a heaeling: ' 'Whereas, the use of alcoholic liquors as a beverage is productive of pauperism, degradation and crime, and believing it is our duty to discourage that which proeluces more evil than gootl, we therefore pledge ourselves to abstain from the use of intoxicating lii|tiors as a beverage.' " "Mr. Lincoln told the people that he had signed this pleelge and was inviting his neighbors to do the same. Many signed the pledge. " 'The first thing I knew, said Breckinridge in telling Dr. Russell the story, "the speaker was standing in front of me. He said to me, 'Sonny, don't you want your name on this pledge?' I saiel, 'Yes, sir.' He said, 'You know what it means, that you are not to drink intoxicating liquor?' I said 'Yes, sir.' He asked me my name and I toltl him 'Cleopas Breckenridge.' He wrote my name upon the paper anil then he transferred the paper to his left hand and holding the paper and pencil in his left hand, he leaned over and laid his right hand upon my head and said: 'Now, Sonny, you keep that pledge, and it will be the best act of your life.' " "Breckenridge told Russell his life story since that time. He related how he had passed through numerous temptations, both to sell liquor and to drink it, when he kept tavern on the old trail across the plains, 50 miles east of Denver, Colorado, and while he served four years as a soldier in the Civil War, but he resisted all such temptations and has become a prosperous, happy old farmer with his children and grandchildren growing up about him and he says the pledge he made to Abraham Lincoln has been one of the essential elements in the success of his lie." THE FRIEND GENERAL COMMENT BY W. L. WHITNEY On Wednesday, the 28th of October, the community was plunged into universal and heartfelt grief by the call from our midst of Judge Morris M. Estee. For the past three years, since these islands became a territory of the United States, there has not been a more prominent nor a more universally respected man in our midst than the late judge of the United States District Court. The eulogies lavishetl upon him from the pulpit and in the press leave nothing to be said in this cursory anel brief review. But the sorrow of all who knew him, anel the deep grief of his intimate friends bear testimony stronger than any words could do of the character of the man. Ile was the great example as he was the great exponent of American citizenship in its best, its broadest and its truest sense; a man whose integrity was unimpeachable, whose sense of justice and right was, as far as man's may he, infallible; whose interest and whose frienelships were broad anel far-reaching; whose knowleelge of the law was great, whose life was pure, whose relations with his fellow men were so faultless that even in the heat of poli- tical strife they remained unassailable and unassaileel. Most sincerely do we hope that his successor will be in this community the power for righteousness, honesty and truth as he to whose memory a thousand of his fellow citizens united in paying their last tribute as his body left for its final resting place on the steamship Alameda. Another noted citizen has, this month, been taken from us. Robert Wilcox has for twenty years been one of the most conspicuous figures in our life here. From the time that he was chosen as one of the Hawaiian youth to he sent abroad and educated to the clay of his death his name has been known wherever Hawaii and its history has been heard of. He has won notoriety as the organizer of two insurrections, as the recognized political leader of the Hawaiians and as the first delegate of this Territory to Congress. With no great mental acumen, with no great knowledge of the world, with no remarkable presence, adelress or physique, we look in vain for the reason of the power he held over his countrymen. We believe, however, that by many of the Hawaiians he was sincerely beloved, and although his last rites have been marred to make political capital, we, with the rest of the community must needs pay our respects to the memory of one who has, so largely by his own efforts, raised and helel himself in so high a position among his countrymen. In the courts much work has been done since last we reviewed their acts. In the court just left vacant by the death of Judge Estee an unrelenting and resistless warfare is being waged on those elespicable creatures who gain a livelihood by the barter of the virtue of another. No movement has ever been put on foot in Honolulu which deserves and which should receive such hearty support from every Christian citizen as this. It is pitiable that any human being should sink to the level of her who gains a livelihood on the streets of this city, but that she should be forceel into such a life by some accursed brute in order that he may reap the gains of her tlisgrace should rouse every man in the community to action and the war on such should never cease till the last be elriven from our shores. This, together with other matters as yet unknown to the community at large, has occupied the attention of the Feeleral Grand Jury. Rumor, however, has it that they have also taken up the matter of the missing vouchers of the last House of Representatives. The destruction of such papers not only is a disgrace to the community but as well an offence against the laws of the United States. It is to be hopeel that a fearless Federal Court will lay its hand so heavily on the offenders that this scheme of dishonesty anay never be tricel again. . The final and most serious attack on the liquor laws of the Territory was made this month before Judge Gear. His Honor, however, in holding that all the liquor laws of the Republic are still in force whether specially re-enacted or not has saveel US from a spectacle eif a community with little if any restraint on the liquor traffic. The notorious suit against Brewer & Company, Ltd., for $113,000 instituted by a hui of young men of the community merely as a matter of speculation, was given its death blow by a ruling of the late Juelge Estee that the offence, if any was committed, occurred before the law framed to punish it was enacted. The burden of paying the $1445.93 of costs now falls on the speculators. �.

He does not forget the sick at the hospital, and above all he is present the highest of ideals of Christian living, and is giving utterance in no uncertain way to the one gospel, the love of God through Jesus Christ.

One of the most enjoyable gatherings of the people from the Far East, was a social meeting held in the grounds of the Japanese church of Hilo. Mr. Yajima, the pastor, sent out invitations, to the Chinese and Koreans, to meet with his Japanese Christians in a social meeting of Oriental Christians. It was a pleasant time to get acquainted with our brothers from over the water. By the siele of the church door a large inscription was written in twelve Chinese characters : "Tung Yeting Kituk kau to lun hop tai tsan nnik vi." In Japanese it read: "To yo Kiristei Kyo to, den get tai shim beiku kwai." In Korean the sounds would still be different, but since Chinese, Koreans anel Japanese, although speaking different languages, all make use of the Chinese character, the meaning was plain to all. Literally the inscription reaels: "Eastern eieean Christ's church disciples joined united kindly harmony meeting," oras we would say: "A union social meeting of Oriental Christians." All entered into the spirit of the gathering, anel there was friendly converse between Japanese and Koreans, Chinese and Japanese, often indeed, where the spoken language would fail, by the use of those wonderful t hi nese characters. Mr. Mo, the Chinese preacher, made a short address in Chinese, which was put into English by Mr. Thwing, anel again into Japanese by Dr. Scudder. He said as follows: "It is a great pleasure to be here at this meeting of our Oriental Christians, coming from different lands, but bound together by the love of Christ. That love iiule'eel woulel be able to make a tunnel through the very earth itself, anel join the Occielcntal to the Oriental. "There is only one elraw back to our meeting, anel that is the fact that we cannot well understand each other. That Tower of Babel has well mixeel up the language of man, but one thing, I believe. Jesus Christ is building a tower in his church, which will ineleeel overtop the tower of old Babel. Christ's tower will indeed reach up to heaven, forming a stairway f<ir man from earth to God. This tower of the church will bring all nations together in happy unity and hasten the time when we shall have one God, one country and one language." There was a song by the children of the llonomu hoariling school, the Koreans sang in their own language, and a picture was taken of the gathering. All enjoyed the occasion greatly and will hope to meet in this social way again at some future time.

In the domestic department all the work is done by the girls; washing, ironing and all cleaning, besides the preparation of food for both teachers and girls. An average of twenty-five loaves of bread are baked daily. Cakes, cookies, bread, doughnuts, etc., are made and sold by the girls and often twenty-five dollars is taken in at one of these sales. After a year's training, one of the older girls is quite capable of taking charge of this department, and in the absence of the matron takes entire charge of the girls and work. A cooking class has been formed and great interest is shown in this new line of work, although we have not the equipment for more than a limited training. Each girl's work is changed at the end of each term so that she may have the advantage of getting as much as possible in the year. At the expiration of each term the progress which each girl has made is most encouraging. We find the girls interested and eager to learn to do their work in the very best way. PORTUGUESE WORK IN HONOLULU. By Rev. A. V. Soares. The last Sunday in September was our Sunday school "Rally Day." There was a fine attendance and nearly all present, even many in the infant department responded to the roll-call with a scripture verse. Rev. G. L. Pearson of the Methodist church dropped in on us and encouraged us by a few kindly words. One of the new features of our work is a sewing class for girls, which meets in the Sunday-school Infant Department room of the church. It numbers twentyfour bright, interesting girls, not only of our own, but some from outside. The Ladies' Missionary Society are having the pew cushions in the Sunday school room renovated. We were glad to see Rev. W. D. Westervelt at our church prayer-meeting a few weeks ago. He gave us a little talk which encouraged us and gladdened our hearts. We are always pleased to welcome those who are interested in us. at our services. Good attendance and good behavior still prevail at our street meetings at Kewalo. On returning from one of these meetings one night last week we stepped into Mr. Ryder's little mission and enjoyed a short season of fellowship. The parsonage is undergoing much needed repairs.

Five children were receivetl from the Kindergarten. This is the first time such a transfer has been made. The refining influence of the Kindergarten training is noted in the general appearance of the little ones, and in the readiness with which they adapt themselves to their new school surroundings. There has been a marked increase in attendance at the Chinese church services, and Sunday School. One very encouraging feature of the work is, the class of Chinese young men that meet at the settlement Thurselay anel Friday evenings of each week for the study of English; Friday evening being a union of Chinese anel Japanese. At the same time Chinese children are often gathered in groups engaged in games. It is hoped that in seeking for the mastery of a new language there may be found the "unsearchable riches of Christ." three hours at Mokuaweoweo. 18th.—Japanese Ootani, when drunk killed by fall from veranda on Liliha street.

Suppose ten million dollars to be put into a country, in the enterprise of evangelization, and half of it lost, while the evangelization goes triumphantly on. Is it becoming to put on sack-cloth and ashes over the lots? Christians in America lose ten times that —yea, fifty times that sum, every year, in stocks and mines and various .peculations. After the victory of Gettysburg imagine a man walking about the field wringing his hands, and frying: "(), what a loss! Look at this destruction of property, ruined gun-carriages anel caissons and valuables (aerified. Think of the awful expense of ammunition I Why, this one battle has involved a loss of millions and millions of dollars for which we, the people, have toiled so long!" What will any patriotic American say to such an idiot as this? What, then, shall we think of those who shrink from the enterprise of evangelizing the lands that need it most, lest property should lie sacrificed in the process? What shall we think of those who fear to press the work in Lands where the' call is loudest, because <>f the danger to the elollars? Dear Christian people, the Master has charge' of the deillars you devote' to him. Pear not. The Pentecostal Christians lost money too, but the loss was gain, as it is in all victorious progress. It would pay to burn up a large pile of bank notes, if the light of their burning could only enlighten the world. In conclusion: Firstly, no larger proportion of property is destroyed in Turkey than in the United States: secondly, one dollar used in Christian enterprise' in Turkey, accomplishes about as much as ten dollars used for a similar purpose in this country; third, the clanger to the dollars is not the greatest clanger to which Christian! in this worlel are subjected fourth, it is better to trust in the I.old and go ahead, than to lie awake nights with anxiety lest He fail to take care eif what we have elevotcd to his cause.— Comrrcgationalist. : SCIENCE AFFIRMING CREATIVE POWER. One of the most remarkable of the deliverances of scientific men on the subject of religion, whether regarel be had to the standing of the author of the remark, or to the circumstances under which it was uttered, was the eleclaration recently maele before a brilliant assemblage of notable thinkers in London by Lord Kelvin, when he said: "Science positively affirms creative power." The occasion of the remark was a lecture delivered by Professor G. Henslow, on "Present-Day Rationalism; An Examination of Darwinism." On moving a vote of thanks to the lecturer, Lord Kelvin said that he could not agree with the speaker, that science neither affirms nor denies creative power. Science, continued Lord Kelvin, makes every one feel a miracle in himself. It is not in elead matter that we live and move and have our being, but in the creating anel directing power which science compels us to accept as an "article of belief." Men cannot escape from that when they study "the physics and dynamics of living and dead matter all arounel." "Modern biologists are coining once more to a firm acceptance of something, and that is a vital principle." Men "only know God in His works," yet are "absolutely forced by science to admit and to believe with absolute confidence in a directive power— in an influence other than physical, dynamical, electrical forces." Cicero denied that men could come into being by a fortuitous concourse of atoms. Is there, asked Lord Kelvin, anything so absurd as to believe that a number of atoms, by falling together of their own accord could make a sprig of moss, a microbe, a living animal? Men may be free in their thought, be said, but with that freedom of thought they are bound to come' to the conclusion that .science is not antagonistic to religion, but a help for religion. It is perfectly evident from these remarks, and from his known views otherwise expressed, that Lord Kelvin, who is perhaps the le'adint, physicist in the world, believes that science itself afforels a testimony, a real knowledge, that there is a spiritual influence in the' world about us. We are not surprised to read in "The London Times" that Lord TCcay, who presided at University College, at the lecture aforementioned, on the conclusion of Lord Kelvin's short adelress, congratulated the Association before whom it was delivered, on the proceedings that day, adding that it was "a granel thing to hear that prince of science. Lord Kelvin, give his testimony on behalf of religion." In a letter to "The Times" written subsequently to the meeting referred to, Lorel Kelvin toeik pains to discriminate the formation of a crystal from that of living things, saying that the description "fortuitous concourse of atoms" is utterly absurd in respect to the coming into existence, the growth, or the continuation of the molecular combinations presenteel in the boelies of living things. "Here," writes this great scientist, "scientific thought is compelled to accept the idea of Creative Power," and he indulges in this piece of reminiscence: "Forty years ago, I asked Liebig, walking, somewhere in the country, if he believed that the grass and the flowers which we saw around us grew by mere mechanical forces.
