Samuel Carter Says Matter Must be Brought to an Issue in Church ' Assembly. E, BUTLER FIRST TRAII Worked His Way From Watchman to High Position. To. H. R. Butler, an Atlantan, be longs the distinction of being the Ural trainmaster on the Western and At lantic railway, or any branch of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis. The position has Just recently been created on this road, and Mr. Butler was the appointee. He la trainmaster of (his division of the Western and At lantic. The career of Mr. Butler Is an Inter esting one. He Is the eon of Hiram A. Butler, who retired from the service about three yeara ago, after serving (or (3 yeara'as conductor, supervisor and road master. One might say he Inherited ability as a railroad man. In 1886 he accepted a position as a night watchman on a construction train of the Western and Atlantic, the very bottom rung on the ladder. In 1888 he was promoted to freight brakeman, then passenger flagman, and later still to baggageman. In 1895 he was tendered a position as conductor. After seven ye'ars In this position he was appointed traveling conductor. Upon the creation of the position of trainmaster he was the first appointee. New York. Nov. 12.—Consolation for the wicked and the unbelieving can be got from the statement of the Rev. Samuel Carter, the venerable Presbyte rian minister, who has returned from Europe, and reiterates that the doc trine of endless punishment must bo eliminated from the Westminster con fession of faith of tha Presbyterian church. “This terrible doctrine." he said, “that pictures God as a merciless one. must come to an Issue. I am certain that an Issue will bo made of It in the Presbyterian general assembly soon.” This Is not a new matter, for Dr. Carter some time ago wrote n letter to the general assembly condemning the Westminster confession. The letter was killed in the ■ committee, and no effort has been made to try Dr. Carter for heresy, as was the case when Dr. Charles A. Briggs condemned the doc trine of Infant damnation. Dr. Carter has preached for forty years. BISHOP WARD TO PRESIDE OVER THE SO.

Broughton graphically contrasted the joys of heaven with the torments of hell. He spoka of the reasonableness of torment and the "figures of epeeeh" relating to fire and flame and the "one drop of water.” Laxarus and the rich num were elaborated und their stations In life contrasted. "It Is the punishment of unquench able thirst and flame,” said Dr. Brough* ton, speaking of tho reality of hell. The rich man prayed for a single drop of water to cool his tongue, declaring that he was tormented in tho flame. Think of u condition like that! Uh, you say, that is figurative language. It Is not literal thirst for water, nor Is it ft lit eral flame of fire. Suppose it Is Agina tive. I do not believe it is, but never mind, the, reality Is always greater than the* figure. Thai Is why flgures of apeech are used. It Is an effort to con vey something thut cannot be convey ed. “It Is the torment of etei nal fixed-1 ness. Between us anti you there Is a; great gulf l)xed so that they who would j pass hence to you may not be able, and that none may cress over thence, it is; enough to *turn every disobedient heart."
