Menerxe n ml JomIiuh StanniieM Talk Ilriefly Dr. KellnK'a Last Lecture. The closing services of the ethical revival were- held last night in Meridian street. Three ministers made addresses He v. C. C. Hoxvlison, of the Third Christian; the Hev. II. C. Meserve, of Plymouth Congrega tional, and Hew Joshua Stanstield, of Meridian-street Churc h. The music was also more elaborate than for the other meet ings. L.ast night the quartet of Meridian street Church was augmented by the full chorus. Dr. Howlison, the first sjeaker, took for his topic, "The Man of Sorrows." His text was: "He was desjdsed and rejected of men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief. "-Isaiah liil, 3. He said in part: "The charm center of the world is not the Garden of .Eden, nor the promised' land and the holy city. -nor is it the cave in Bethlehem, nor even the open tomb it is the cross of Calvary. Life is not judged by its beginnings, nor its joys, nor its ultimate goal, but by its meaning and by the way of Its redemption. These are found at last and only by following Jesus to Calvary and bearing 'our cross after Him. There is in all literature nothing finer than this fifty-third chapter of Isaiah. It is not the expression of a single man's interpretation of life and of his prophetic vision. It is the utterance of the soul of Israel after centuries of faith and of un faithfulness, of divine inspiration and of headstrong resistance to God's will, of lying prostrate at His feet until at last the redeeming power of the fires of purifi cation are recognized and joyfully accepted. This suffering servant is primarily Israel; but we rightly interpret these passages as phophetic of the Coming One, who him self embodied ail of Israel's fragmentary dreams of the manifestation of God, and in whom all prophecy was fullilled, as He was set forth for the world's redemption. "Ry Israel's striies, no less than by the stripes of Jesus, has the world been healed. In those terrible experiences through which Israel passes. when her people were divided, when first one and then the other faction of the little nation were carried far away into captivity, when her holy city was laid waste and her temple utterly destroyed; it was through these desola tions that Israel learned to know God, and became the revcaler of Him to all the world. And so we are told that Jesus was perfected through his sufferings. The world always tries to avoid the cross, and it blindly pursues its pleasures. "With it the unselfish life and the life of sorrow are the characteristics of a fanatic. Yet the world's way always ends in disap pointment, and its devotees are over whelmed at last with despair. But He who gladly submits to be smitten, stricken of God 'shall see of the travail of his soul, and 'be satisfied.' " REV. H. C. MESEHVE'S TALK. The Hev. II. C. Meserve followed Dr. Rowlison. His theme was "Jesus The World Savior." He said In part: "In the estimation of the fathers Jesus' life work contered in the crucifixion. The atonement, so called, belonged to this dramatic scene. All the life faded into insignificance before this consummation on Calvary. To-day we are gaining a full perspective. The back ground of the cross Is the life. We will never take our eyes from the consumma tion, but we shall never appreciate the con summation till we appreciate all that pre ceded. "The cross was the logical outcome of that life. Without the years of prepara tion, the years of study and the years of service Jesus could not have come to the cross. But with all these back of Him there was no other issue for his life. His teaching had ever been that he who would save his life must lose it; that is, he who would stand for truth and build on truth and labor for truth, would certainly be slain by the sin and selfishness of the world, but in that very failure lay salvation, for he had built an eternal truth for the race, while he who served the present time, shift ing his position to every wind that blew, as certainly lost his character and betrayed his allegiance to the eternal truth. "Jesus' relation to God was vindicated by his life and death. His sonship required no dogma of the church, no defense on the part of men. By the eternal standard of righteousness and love he established him self as the Son of God and introduced men into the possibilities of such sonship. "We do not need a doctrine of the atone ment when we have the living fact of the reconciliation. By Jesus' direction- we make our apieal to life. No hypocrisy can stand this test; no theory unlived can issue satisfactorily. "It is life and life alone, lived in Jesus' spirit and unselfishly as his was, that can establish the relation most desired the re lation of the father and his child. "So Jesus, by calling the world to life, to the true principles of life, inducted men into the eternal life here and now; the kingdom that is and shall be. DR. STANSFIELD S REMARKS. Dr. Stansfield closed the meeting-. He said in part: "If it be true that Jesus came from heaven to earth, and we believe it is, there was nothing He brought with Him of which a cross could be made. If it be true, as we believe, that He was holy, harmless, undefiled and separate from sin ners, there was nothing in His human life out of which a cross could be made. The cross as it reached Jesus was made out of the world's wickedness, sin and wrong. It became Christ's cross because of His in finite love. As has been observed, the weight of the cross was inevitable. From the wickedness of human life it became the cross of Christ. Because of His own self giving the cross of Christ became glorious, not as a tragedy, but as a triumph the triumph of divine human goodness and love. As Jesus affirms, "Therefore doth my Father love me that I may take it; for no man tan take it from me. I have poxver to lay It down and I have power to take it up again.' There is much, human suffering that should never be character ized as 'our cross' in the highest and truest sense of that word. It is true that such suffering, under the blessing of God, is often used to create that bond of sym pathy that belts the world, for without such personal suffering there would be little sympathy for men in the deepest sorrow of life. Yet there is nothing of the essential elements of the Christ or Christians' cross therein. The wickedness of this woild ever creates a cross or crosses; and the divine human love of those in the kingdom of God will take the crosses and make them their own. It is there that the cross is forever a fact in life, and the superlative duty of Christian discipleship is to sacri fice and to serve." LAST LRMEX LKCTI RC, Rev. II. IV. Kellogg'! Subject Warn 'The Voice of the Crn." At the Central-avenue M. E. Church Dr. Kellogg gave the last of the series of lenten lectures yesterday afternoon. His subject was. "The Voice of the Cross." He said in part: "If endowed with speech what would the cross say to us? What would be its defense for being in the world? How would it exj.lain its history? Above all. what does il tench us to-day? There must be some reason beyond the fact that it is a symbol of death and suffering to justify its pres ence, and poxver. Some higher cause than any single historic fact.

If the cross were to ex plain itslf It would take us into the pro foundest secrets of nature's laws and show us how Goi has been at work by its method from the beginning for the crea tion of highest products. It would tell us that the universal law of 'the struggle for the life of others' had been contributing to the best results. Prom the dying cj th. corn of wheat to the self-sacrifice of motherhood, its noblest expression, it has been a perpetual influence. But this raised to its loftiest action in voluntary offering for a needy and degraded world crowns all with unique and divine significance. Th cross is no accident In God's universe. It was provided for in the original plan and while the builders have rejected it. 'it has at last become the head of the corner.' It now occupies the most conspicuous place in the eternal superstructure. "What would it teach us? It proclaims a (Jd of Love. The cross is love's best ex pression. Not because it symbolizes suffer ing, but accepted voluntary suffering for lox-e's sake. Suffering is not the cross. Bu: suffering xx hich is purpose, full and deliber ate and sympathetic. It declares to us God' design for a degraded race. Other voices, and many, may tell us of the power, majesty, and wisdom of the Infinite, but xve draw mar to th? cross when we wish to knoxv His love. 'He so loved the world as to give his only begotten Son.' "Again it tells us of God in human his tory and it is the best interpreter .of this n ysterious problem. The ascent of man is uy its laxv and poxver. What is its ex planation of the life of Jesus, that divine inan? It was the principle which con sumed His thought and activities. He be pan His career with His face toxvard thj cross; He never deviated from His purpose to die for the world. This was the plan to which He brought His whole being as ma terial for His structure, and this was the Idea which gave character and force to the material which He brought. This cross was His altar as it was His throne. It ex plains and justifies His life. But what xx-oüld the cross teach us of man? Every thing worth knowing. The measure and kind of love which it declares is an an nouncement of heaven's estimated worth of man such as we hear nowhere else. "Like a perpetual song it has moved his heart: like a passion it has aroused him. Man is magnified and inspired by the love of the cross. His best self is discovered and exalted. It teaches him a new and bet ter life a life of sublimest achievement: a life of hope and love and peace. It has created his visions and songs. This has been the reason for his greatest and di vinest deeds. His way 'has been smoothed and he has reached his heaven by the lead of its voice.' ' 'In the cross of Christ I glory, all the light of sacred story. Towering o'er the wreck of time, gathers round its head sumblime. " THE LA II Ci K It CHRIST. Subject of Rev. JonIiuu Mansfield's Lust Lenten Lecture. The Hev. Dr. Stansfield gave his last lenten lecture yesterday afternoon. His topic was "The Larger Christ." He said in part: "In preparing for this last of our lenten lectures, I have felt myself under a strong desire to speak of the 'Larger Christ' as theologically, socially, humanly, divinely- considered, but fascinating as this would be, we must leave it and to-day give ourselves to this one .thought or truth, Christ magnified and enlarged in His own. "The opening words of the Acts of the Apostles are very suggestive of the truth we to-day consider; they are these: 'A treatise of all that Jesus began to do and to'teach.' 'Began,' was that all? Did the apostles understand Christ's earth life as but the beginning of an ever-increasing teign of righteousness? How brief Christ's life wasl How incomplete; and He was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people was He stricken, and who shall declare His genera tion? To measure His great life by years you do injustice; you would then need to erect a broken column over His grave, and in the truly Christian conception of life there is no place for such. He was not ended by death; He conquered death and is alive forevermore. No, no; His generation must not be measured by the few years He lived in Judea, for such is the vitality of His being that 'He shall see His seed. He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.' There are sex-era! things quite noticeable in the life and teaching of our Lord as bearing' upon this truth. "There were many things He gave His disciples they could not then understand. Ye cannot bear them now,' but they should understand them later; for His going away should bring to them His Holy Spirit, and He should lead them into all truth. He should bring all things to their remem brance whatsoever Christ had said. So that the words of Jesus were germinal, and the years of growing experience should amplify and make clear their meaning. His going from the earth was expedient for them, for His going to the seat of power in heaven meant that the Divine Spirit should come into their own lives and they f-hould be witnesses of Christ. 'Witnesses ol me,' He says; that is, witnesses of the great truth of the divine indwelling in human life. It is thus that the church is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all. And the 'Larger Christ then Is this: The Christ spirit and life so formed in the lives of the redeemed ones who are members of His kingdom and His true, church, that with Paul, they may sav, 'I live, yet not I, Christ liveth in me.' It is thus that Christ 'sees of the travail of His soul,' 'prolongs His days' and the 'pleasure of the Lord prospers in His hands.' 'This is. His generation and 'of the increase of His kingdom there shall be no end.' With this truth in mind I heard a person pray once 'that we might become little t.hrists.' The brother meant right and the. Lord knows the meaning of ex-ery honest prayer but it was badly worded. There 's but one Christ, the 'sent of God' and 'the only begotten of the Father,' but what we need to pray for and seek to realize is not to be 'little Christs' but large Christians, because of His spirit in our life, and then 'as He was in the world so are we to be in the world.' And this verily is 'the larger Christ,' the Lord who 'is alive forever more,' rehabilitated or reincarnatetl in the lixts of His own. This is what He meant in that strange paradox He gave to His dis ciples in the closing hours of His life. A little while ye shall not see me,' and aga'n, 'a little while ye shall see me,' and 'Because I go to the Father.' and 'Because 1 live ye shall lix-e also,' and yet again, 'Greater works than mine shall ye do because I go to th2 Father.' The 'because of Jesus in these utterances is very significant. Be cause He has gone to the Father, His spirit 'whom the Father will send in my name' shall come upon men and abide wltn them forever. Thus the risen Christ, aliva for evermore, is not limited In His presence and activities to Nazareth or Galilee or Judea, but 'Wherever two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. All power is given to me in heaven and in earth.' there fore, go ye and teach and disciple all, so that Ills power He vests in the church which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all, and it is thus that He is with us, even unto the end of the world." Good Friday Programme. A very beautiful and impressive song service was given last night in St. Paul's Episcopal Church by the full vested choir In celebration of Good Friday. The services consisted in singing of "The Seven Last Words of Christ." The seven words of Christ told of His condemnation by the Jews; Jesus' words as sentence is passed upen Him; Jesus asks His mother to behold. Him: Christ on the cross asks His Father why He should be forsaken; Jesus thirsts; Christ's death. Good Friday was generally observed in Episcopal and Catholic churches. Lectures lty Methodist Ministers. The Methodist ministers of the city will begin a series of lectures on sociological and religious topics next week at Hyde Park M. E.

IT WILL BE A GOULD LINE GOlLn IFLIECE DOMINATES IX IIIDS FOR WESTKHX MARYLAND. The Integrity of the Late Manaße nient of the Evansvllle & Terre Haute ot Questioned. Gould Influence is thought to dominate in the Fuller syndicate that has acquired control of the West Virginia Central and bid for the Western Maryland, with a fair prospect of getting the road. What has been revealed explains the denials of Geo. J. Gould. The New York Commercial says: "The members of the family said to be ac tually interested and for whom the syndi cate is said to have been organized are Howard Gould and his sister. Miss Helen Gould. The trip made by the former over the West Virginia Central is said to have been at the suggestion of Senator Kerens, of St. Louis, and that subsequently Wins low G. Pierce was consulted, with the re sult that the syndicate in question was formed. Two routes are under considera tion. One is via the Wheeling & Lake Erie from Pittsburg to Zanesville, thence to Bellington. W. Va.. and a junction with the West Virginia Central, whose tracks will be used to Cumberland, where the Baltimore & Cumberland survey, made for the Davis Kerens people some years ago, will be fol lowed to Hancock. Md.. thence along the Western Maryland to Baltimore and tide water. "The other route, which is understood to be favored by President Ramsey, of the Wabash, is from Pittsburg to Unlontown and thence over the mountains to a con nection with the West Virginia Central near Cumberland. As the story goes, it is the intention of the Goulds to make New port News and not Baltimore the final out let for a complete transcontinental system. According to current rumor the new road from Denver to Salt Lake City, with a tun nel through the mountains, which has re cently been projected is a part of the Gould plan for a thorough transcontinental line, and its construction is believed to be de pendent upon what is accomplished in other directions in furtherance of the general scheme." Evansvllle fc Terre Haute Muddle. A local railway official, who is well in formed concerning the Evansville & Terre Haute road, in speaking of the demoralized condition of the property, said: "There is an indeflnlteness in the statements made about the changes found necessary in the accounts of the Evansvllle & Terre Haute, but it is generally understood in railroad circles that there is no question of the in tegrity of the late management, and that the only point involved is the method of bookkeeping. It was suggested in local railroad circles that, winnowing the chaff from the many telegraphic reports sent over the country, some of which are pal pably absurd, the whole matter is probably resolved into the composition of the balance sheet. The amount inx'olved is said to be $2,CXiO.O0O. which is the same amount as the Evansville & Indianapolis stock, which from Poor's Manual appears to be carried at par in the general account. This stock is worthless considered from the view poiut of earning power; indeed, the operation of the road and the payment of the Interest on its bonds entails a loss on the pro prietary companv every year, as with this Evansville & Indianapolis stock of $2.0nC.N) as an asset in the E. & T. H. balance sheet the surplus is only about $1.50.0H); if it should be charged off as being pf no value a deficit would be shown. This is offered as a possible explanation." Illinois Central Changes. Numerous changes have been announced by the Illinois Central management in pur suance of a plan to reorganize the south ern and western portions of the system. The changes are in line with the policy of the company to make that organization as compact as possible, and such as will lit present conditions caused by a rapidly-expanding traffic. The appointments are as follows: M. Gilleas, of Memphis, Tenn.. formerly general superintendent of the lines south of the Ohio river, resigned and made the third vice president and general superintendent of the Yaeoo & Mississippi Valley: O. M. Dunn, formerly division superintendent of the Iiuislana division, with headquarters at New Orleans, to be assistant general superintendent of the lines south of the river: C. T. Scafo, for merly local agent at New Orleans, suc ceeds O. M. Dunn north of the Ohio river; G. F. Bailey, formerly superintendent of the Springfield division at Clinton, has been relieved and will later be assigned to other duties, and G. A. Clark, formerly superin tendent of the Omaha division, takes his place: C. K. Dixon, formerly superintend ent of the Cherokee division, succeeds Mr. Clark, and D. Gilleas, formerly roadmaster at St. Louis, succeeds Mr. Dixon. Personal, Local and General Notes. The Wisconsin Central has given notice of its withdrawal from the military-rate agreement between Western lines. C. E. Schaff, general manager of the Big Four, was in the city last night, returning from a trip to St. Louis and Cairo. With the additional $1.01ß,fX) general mort gage bonds of the Big Four recently listed the company has a bonded debt of 15,C7j, Edward Kellum, traveling passenger agent of the Big Four, yesterday buried his daughter, four years of age, she dying of scarlet fever.

Graves, superintendent of the Indiana, Decatur & Western, is expected home to-day from Atlantic City, where he has been a couple of weeks. L. W. Campbell, general agent nf the freight department of the Great Northern, and J. T. McGaughey, traveling freight agent of the lines, are in the city. The excellent time the passenger trains of the Chesapeake & Ohio have made the past winter between Cincinanti and Wash ington is favorably commented upon. R. L. Holliday. division superintendent on the Pennsylvania lines, who has been seriously ill with bronchial affection, has gone to Atlantic City for several weeks" stay. An attempt will be made to abolish all party rates In Transmissouri territory. The recent decision making the rate open to the public is the cause of the propose ! action. C. H. Warren, formerly vice president of the Jersey Central, is making an examina tion of the entire Choctaw system of roads. Just what significance there is to the trip is not known. E. H. Harriman. president of the South ern Pacific, lias returned from his trip to the Pacific coast, it being his first trip over the line. He siys his trip to Mexico was for pleasure only. S. M.

This road is financed by Chicago capitalists and passes diagonally through Oklahoma. The report that the Chicago & Alton and the Santa Fe had arranged for a consolida tion of the right of way between Jollet and Chicago is officially denied. Such a plan was suggested some time ago. but no such arrangement is now contemplated. The Standard Steel Car Company, which has just opened for business, is receiving many orders for car?. The first order was from th Chesapeake & Ohio for l.oiH. to bj deltvere-il at once, and the Pennsylvania placed an order for a like number. William Gibson, formerly division super intendent on the Biff Four, later general superintendent of the Baltimore k Ohio, was in Pittsburg on Thursday and stated that he would probably return there in tho near future to occupy aa Important posi tion. Articles of incorporation have been filed for the Federal Railway Company at Rapid City, S. I)., with a capital of JlS.OoO.ao. The incorporators are William T. Coad. Jamea T. Mattison and J. B.

The eye bars will have an aggregate weight of 2.5I0 pounds, and over 5.000.CX) pounds of steel will be used in the cantilever part of the structure. Printers' Ink, a Journal for advertisers, contains a sketch of the railroad career and an excellent picture of Georg H. Daniels, general passenger agent of the New York Central.
