HOW CITIES MAY BE GREAT. nEV. w. e. pars ox gave lessors IIV >BI’MCI PAL ECONOMY. Description of a Perfect (*ity Ont runs All Eipprienccs-Meii Call It an Idle Dream—lint the Ideal Is Necessary to Heach a licsult Worth Anything—Some tiling f the Mak ing of an Ideal City—Only Justifi cation for Breaking Down the Barriers of the Republic Is the Claim of the lutention to Extend the Sphere of Human Welfare—Dr. Parson Leaves To-day for New berry, S. C. Rev. W. E. Pars n, D. D., pastor of the Church of the Reformation in Washing ton, preached yesierday morning at the Lutheran Church of the Ascension. Dr. Parson is a man of gr< at erudition, and his church is one of the most prominent in Washington. Among his parishioners is Hon. W. G. Brantley, member of Con gress from the Eleventh Georgia district. Dr. Parson is a man of great personal charm, and his wide travels e.i&ble him to talk interestingly of m.my lands. FYr several years he was professor in the University of Japan at Tokio, till ng t e chair of E glish. His stay among frieneds in Savannah has been greatly enjoyed. He leaves to-day for Newberry. S. C., where he will preach the baccalaureate sermon. The text for the sermon was drawn from Revelations, 21:10: He carried me away in the spirit to a gr at and high mountain and sh wed me t: at great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.” "There is much in the book of Revela tions that reaches on Into the ideal," Dr. Parson declared. "It describes what ought to be, what some t me will be, which is so far removed from what is that we some imes imagine it a to ; ,e er fanciful. Buf. it is announced, on t e very face of the terms used, that we are deal ing with a state not yet actualized. "He carried me away in the s. ir.t, and showed me." That describes a revelation. This is the meaning of the holy t* rm, "the city of God." "The thing that stands out most prom inently in such a description of an ideal time, an ideal place, a perfect ci.y. is that it so far dm.runs all experience that men grow sk ptical, and say, ‘You show us impossibilities. It is an iridescent dream. Religion is full of unrealities.’ Now. I warn to set forth the proposition thai it is necessary to have the id al in order to reach any actual result that will be worth anything? More than"that—ti is ideal may seem the impossible, and toe unattainable, yet have great value, be cause of its inriuence upon the course of every-day life. “The perfect city is a parable Here is an idea that has taken hold of the mind ©u'side the religious use o.‘ it. The happy land lies somewhere. We can at least think what it ought to be like. The world begins its story with Eden Paradise, though it may he sunk with the 1 At lantis, not to be found again in this world, still has left its imprint upon all literature, and has been reproduced of en in imagination. Plato's ‘Republic,* More's •Utopia.' Milton’s ‘Paradise Regained,' Bellamy’s Looking Backward.' Bulwcr’s ‘Coming Race,’ and other similar writings presuppose some ideal s ate to which the coming race may attain. The very fac that it has never been realiz and makes it the more truly an object of ambition and endeavor that we may demonstrate th possibility of seme time reaching the ful filment of our dream. The Christian mil lennium is in line with this idea. “The making of an ideal city is a great problem. With many writ is the begin nings of civilization are c incident with the rise of the cities. As, in dealing with the human soul, some of the mest d.flY ult questions atise t o late for the best tr at ment of them. After the city is founded and its at reels laid ou . without any fixed plan, and the population has grown to thousands, and the needs press for more perfect conditions, then a great deal of mistake must he corrected. Not many cities have the advantage of being laid out by chart 100 years be fore the real city begins. Someone ha said that for the true 1 re of a child you must lock to influences that were at wor.-t two cr three hundred \ears before it was born. There is much s ress laid in these days on heredity, but not too much. Moses put it into the commandments by divine directcn that we mu i look to s.e the results of evil unto the third an l fourth gen erations. and we know t ow' Cat (he causes lig back beyend th - thir l and fourth generations precedi l g. Spurgeon blamed his gout on his g a rent rand father. And if physical arac.eristic* run through n any r e e ...on . wh\ should it bj deemed sira :g that evil should sirike its ro ' bad: throu h u:. known years—even to the very b ginning of things? The and. c rne o' inherit and evi is a d.ctrir.e of modern science. ‘‘The remedy we must apply to the cur ing of human ills s much like the prob lem of bringing the life of a city to the beat material conditions. It is the after recovery from .arlier errors. But we say that what was *n t p rfect at the tart can be iecla m< and brought up to wholesome condition . No n * wants to teach that we are fallen b-yond recovery The doctrine of tct.ti \>p avi.y has b n made io carry too much and • courage pen 1 . sometimes. Havai a ha-1 four centuries of filth.

Waring, who went down to inspect .he s c ,ry conditions in Havana, lost his life as a result, himself dying witti tho yellow fever. ‘He savi and others, himself he could not save.’ That is the law of aivatl n “Col.

This i- the gre.it problem of civilization to redeem the earth. It Is ‘the white man's bidden,' the reward for bearing it is to he found In the regenerated earth. . “We see that the worst city can be improved. The best city is not perfection, which might be taken aDo as a parable. Human nature, in Its least desirable traits, can he lifted into improvement, and in Its best attainments bus not gone be yond further perfection. The gra e of God will add to what is best in nature. We want a touch of nature in the city. The most beautiful park in the city of Boston is a large trac tof the wilder--a of nature unchanged, but controlled by the city. The tree*, rocks, shrubberies will bushes, all are there, beautiful as God made thsm. The grace of God does not aim to uproot every growth In the soul. Anger may remain—if we are careful to be in dignant only at the right things. The "fSi feEST"G?tOCERSiT* Tl KEEP THE PURE TR/’’- BPICES.

Bible says: ‘Be ye angry, and sin not.’ That must be a possibi ity, for the Bible says again that God is ‘ang/y with the wicked.’ “For the creation of the perfect city a good deal must be made new, and a good deal must be made over. The inventions of this century have made it possible to perfect the life of a city, as never before in the history of the world. In the four teenth century there was one great invention—the discovery of the ma riner's compass; in the fifteenth century there was one invention— the art of printing; in the sixteenth cen tury there was no great invention, though there were many additions to the sum of human knowledge by printing; and the great Reformation began; in the sev enteenth century there was one great in vention—the telescope; in the eighteenth century one—the sieam engine; in the nineteenth century we have the resuits, in the applications of steam to navigation and railways; electricity has been di.-:ove;ed in useful applications like the telegraph, telephone, lighting; we have had friction matches, gas for light; anesthetics and the X-ray. These and other great inventions and discoveries have had more influence on the comfortable government of great cities than we can imagine—unless we try to recall how dark, inconvenient, unsafe and painful were the conditions of life in the beginning ot' the century now clos ing. “Who can venture to predict what the next century will see, in the light of the marvels of the present? We can think sometimes what the redeemed earth, with all conditions of life perfect, will become There is a sentence here and there in the Bible prophetic of the time, ’Nothing to hurt,’ etc. ‘No complaining in the streets.' ’There shall be no more curse,' ‘I make all things new.' ‘There shall be no night there.’ The Lord God giveth them light. ■There shall be no more death, neither sor row, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed away.' This is the great city that came out of heaven from God. ' It Is the complete, redemption. “We understand very well that the city is about what the people in it are. The highest civilization is not a thing of ma terial conditions. We can have everything very complete, perfect and clean, yet be rotten to the core. The old Roman civili zation was both high and low. The re mains of the ancient empire reveal an artistic sense that was high; the science of government was well perfected. They hod learned that cleanliness was a virtue, and their baths and water supplies were so complete that after 2,000 years we can see that these were things of first consid eration in their cities, yet the trail of the -erpent was over it all, and the real secret of the decay of ihe Roman empire was in the decay of public morals. The vices of the ruder nations which they conquered infected the. victorious legions, and In the end they fell an easy prey to the torrent of barbarism which flowed down over the empire from the north. "There is no more falacious idea abroad among men to-day than the notion that mere improvement in physical conditions is going to be an advance in the civiliza tion and prosperity. That much must be allowed to the hon est anti-expansionist. We may widen our nation’s influence only to make it worth less than before—as the river which breaks over its banks is likely to be shal low where it widens, and leave a deposit of slime in fields once fertile. Goldsmith expresses it exactly ln_his ‘Deserted Vil lage': " ‘III fares the land, to hast'ning ills a prey. Where wealth accumulates and men de cay.’ “The only possible justification wre can have for breaking over the ancient boundaries established by the founders of the republic lies in the ciaim that we are going to extend the sphere of human Welfare, and that we are going to bring in new and better conditions. We are to see to it that cruelty and ignorance flee away, whilst the reign of a true righteous ness begins. This claim we must make good, or earn the contempt of later gen erations. LOCAL PERSONAL.

Wason, purchasing agent of the Big Consolidated, la determined that the smokestack of the company's Cedar avenue power house shall be The highest in the ci y, even if it is necessary to go up into the clouds. At present the company is making a number of improvements to its power house, buildi ig additions, etc. Among the improvements is anew stack. The sack, according to the original plans, was to be 2.5 feet in hight. Now it appears that the Cleveland El'C tr c Iliumh ating Company recently erect ed anew stack at its p wer plant. This stack, accori ihg to original plan, was to have b< en 225 feet in hight. But the illum inacirg company heafd that the Big Con sollciatfd proposed 10 erect a stack of the same hight. The contractor was quietly ordered to add an additional foot to the stack, making is total hight 216 feet. Thus it was figured the stack would out strip that of the Big Consolidated. But the plans of the Illuminating company came to the ears of Mr. Wason last Mon day. Now he h and al. along tig ire 1 that the Big Ccnsol da el stack wouli be toe highest in the city. When he heard that t; e hight of the .illuminating company's s aek had been raised one foot he 1.. me diately "saw” the raise and went it four better. In o htr words he immediately ordered the Big Consolldited contractor to add live f et to the original hight, tn 'kin? the to al 230 feet.

Atlanta, June 17.—Revs Sam Jones and Len Broughton preached to 7,000 people this afternoon at the Piedmont Park Au ditorium. The former sailed into Atlanta and the latter into Savannah. Dr. BrOughton said someone asked him if Atlanta was any worse than Savtfhnah, and he repl.od that he had just as well compare Atlanta to hell as to Savannah. Mr. Jones said Mayor Woodward was not “the only pebble on the leach” in vrongdoing in Atlanta. He a sailed the local police department, charging that all it coud catch was Darktown negroes. Its efficiency was not half as good as under Chief Connolly’s administration, he sa.d. This eulogy on the late dead chief, com ing from Mr. Jones, was a surprise, as Chief Connolly was a devout Catholic. Mr. Jones said he had no apologies to make to (he Democrats except when he lied on them by saying something good about them. Dr. Broughton ?.aid there wore 120 sa ’oons in Atlanta. 100 blind tigers, 300 houses of prostitution, and only 10,000 church members, while of the white popu lation alone there were 65,000 non-church members. Dyapi'iinia. From the New York Press. Perhaps the least understood of human maladies Is dyspepsia. Turn to one standard lexicon and you will find this: “Dyspepsia—See IndLgestion;’’ turn to another and you will see this: “Indiges tion—See Dyspepsia." Read all you can find on both subject® and all you will know may be set down thus: Dyspepsia Is Indigestion and Indigestion is Dyspep sia. Bread is said to be the staff of life. Possibly that is true. Bread fresh made is responsible for all the indigestion and dyspepsia. Eat It hot and be a chronic invalid. Everybody in the South wrig dyspeptic until Northern bakers settled there after the war and made bread that was eaten cold. Talk about your "beat biscuit" and your "coda riz" rolls, your hot pone and your Sunday loaf heated over to melt butter. It sounds old-fash ioned and aristocratic, maybe, but it is death by slow degrees of torture. Bill Scott, the coal baron of Erie, watched a young man eat one day and remarked: "I’d give a million dollars for your stomach." He knew nothing about the youth’s stomach, for one cannot judge by the appetite. Asa matter of fact, this hearty eater was a martyr to dyspep sia, and his abnormal capacity for food was but the outward evidence of his trou ble. He and Scott had the same malady, but in a different form. The millionaire could not eat at all without the severest pains. He spent many thousands of dol lars for medicinal help and medical ser vice, and died of starvation and gastritis. If he had never eaten bread It is probable that he never would have known dyspep sia. Prevention of the national disorder may be accomplished in no other way; eat no bread. If you are bound) to eat bread, eat mai ze®. They are made of the purest flour that can be had, and they contain no leaven. If you are bent upon rating bak ers* bread, either loaves or rolls, let it remain in the bread box a week or ten days until decomposition or fermentation has done its work of purification; then soak in cold water a minute or two and heat in the oven until quite dry and light. Who eats beef killed last night for to-day’s breakfast? Who has roasted for dinner an aged hen killed in the forenoon? The oannjb.il. Who drinks beer the day It ia brew'ed, or whiskey the day it is distilled? Who w’ants champagne a week old? We must learn that fresh bread is unripe, or unseasoned, bread. Time must be given for the processes of nature to render It digestive. Now then. FOR KGKT-UHCELLA\EOtI FLAT CONNECTING ROOMS. FIRST floor; large hall third floor, suitable for any purpose John Lyon*.
