THE WINNING OF SOULS. SERMON BY REV. DR. ADAMS AT THE CENTRAL M. E.
CHURCH. The Rev. George Adams, Ph.D., preached at the Central M. E. Church, Fifth street, between Driggs and Bedford avenues, yesterday morning, on "Soul" Winning." He took his text from Proverbs 30: "He That Winneth Souls Is Wise." Dr.
Adams said in substance: "According to the philosophy of Jesus Christ the human soul is invaluable. The truth uttered by our Lord challenges contradiction, 'What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own The Creator has divine methods of calculation. He only knows the capada bilities of man and all that immortality bespeaks; hence our text involves the possibility of the souls security and happiness and leads to the question from what and to what wisdom manifest in winning souls. The answer is brief, from guilt to pardon, through the merits of Christ's atonement. "The possibility of winning some souls is cheering, but the probability of winning all souls is despairing.
Endowed with the sovereignty of will-the enlightened understanding of man will not submit to coercive methods for the adop. tion of Christianity. His free-agency distinguishes him from the brute creation. He can be a king, tyrannical, despotic, or childlike, loving and docile. Hence he must be convinced of and won to the salvation of the gospel.
"The conversion of the world committed to the Church seems to be' wellnigh impracticable and would be so apart -from the ministry of the Holy Spirit. With 300,000,000 of women now on the planet who have only the Buddhist hope of being born again as women, instead of toads and snakes, and 80,000,000 of vomen.in Moslem harems, beside multitudes growing up in the most degraded superstition there is certainly urgent need of increased efforts in winning souls. Among the 200,000,000 of Africa there are thirty-four missionary societies at work, thirty-three societies in China with its 350,000,000 -population, and about fifty societies are doing missionary work amid the 250,000,000 of India. In fact the whole world is practically available for the consecrated labors of the spiritual evangel. "But consider the condition religiously in our own land and in our own city.
The great number of real or pretended sceptics, the vast army of the drunkards and the together with myriads who are spiritually indifferent. Sin everywhere fetters degrades and brutalizes, and there is no deliverance, Jesus from Christ. its thraldom except There are doubtless many who are saying whithin themselves "Who will show me any good "Oh that I knew where I might find him?" There is, therefore, abundant opportunity for every Christian to engage in soul winning, which is a divine art. "Colleges and seminaries can impart knowledge and culture the intellect; but there is no set rule for winning souls. No human regulation can be instituted declaring this and that only is the way to win souls, for this art is taught only in the school of Christ.
Stereotyped methods will not suffice to win all sorts and conditions of men to the acceptance of Christ. The winner of souls must be natural--real. "The emphatic word of the text is winning, not driving. In this work deception hinders and a wise man will not deceive. "He that winneth souls is wise." First, in the knowledge of God.
He knows God as a personal Savior. He is acquainted with God's love for the human race, and his own obligation to God. Second, He is wise in the knowlegde of God's word. The successful winner of souls is wise in the saying of God and the Divine promises, and he will use the same as means to lead to the embodiment of truth. Difficulties must be overcome and special effort employed to win to Christ.
remains a pertinent and important question: Are you striving to win souls? Remember, "'They that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever." 9 THE MAINE'S CHAPLAIN. FATHER JOHN P. CHIDWICK GIVEN A RECEPTION. Father John P. Chidwick, chaplain of the ill-fated battleship Maine, delivered a in the Montauk Theatre last Later he was given a reception at the Argyle rooms, in Pierrepont street, where he received quite an ovation from the Catholic Benevolent Legion, State Council, District No.
1, of which thirty-three councils were represented. Each member present carried an American flag, and as Father Chidwick stepped ron the platform the flags were waved enthusiastically, while those present sang "The Star Spangled Banner." State President R. J. Hutchinson presided and briefly introduced Father Chidwick as a comrade of Lexington Council, of whom the country is proud. Father Chidwick said he felt it an honor to be present at such a gathering of Catholic men and women.
He felt always grateful to be able to talk to Catholic women, for women are the priests of the family and 80- ciety. Women are naturally good and pious, while men are more fitted to face the toils of the world and make the bolder struggle, Father, Chidwick's remarks were recelved with the warmest applause. The assemblage did not break up until after midnight. CUMBERLAND, Me. Feb.

A REMARKABLE INCREASE SHOWN IN THE LAST TWO YEARS. In speaking of the stability of the steel towers which are to be built for the New East River Bridge, Chief Engineer C. C. Martin, of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge, said to-day that, while only an earthquake could harm the masonry of the present structure, the steel towers were unquestionably the better of the two, for, steel was equally as durable, while the towers would present a more symmetrical appearance than do those constructed of stone. Steel, however, has advanced in price SO rapidly, said Mr.
Martin, as the result of increasing prosperity in the land, that the new towers would cost at least $200,000 more than they would have cost two years ago. Nevertheless, the engineer believes that they possess many advantages over stone that will warrant the building of future bridges in a like manner. GERMAN ARMY BILL. BERLIN, Feb.
