He has been over to Last night’s session of the Eastern Virginia Christian Conference drew a large crowd to the Third Christian chun;h in Park Place, where the meet ings are being held. The session last night was taken up with a sermon by Hev. W, W. Staley, D. D., fo Suffolk, one of the oldest ministers iii point of Mrvke in the chunh. He has been pastor of his present church 33 years. Dr. Staley’s subject was "Where And How to Find Jesus.” He used the story of Christ’s first viat to Jeru salem where he was lost by his par ents and later foimd in the temple conversing with the learned doctars as an analogy to the Christian’s re ligious progress today. Christ’s par ents, thinking of heme and its duties after thair visit to the temple, for got their Lord and went off without Him. They thought of Him before thy arrived, went back for Him, were overcome with delight at finding Him and went back home with permanent rejoicing in their hearts. This, he thought, vras analogus to the position of the Christian in the church, who is very religious while there, but who forgets his Lord when the cares of daily life press upon him. The true Christian finds his Lord and gT3WS in grace until the end. . Speaking of the wonder of the Jew ish doctors in the temple at the pre cocity of the young boy, Jesurs, Dr. Staley remarked that intellectuality is always amazed when it comes iiit> contact with genuine Christianity. One of th.'! dangers of Christianity, he issefted, i.'; iotellectuaUty that is not imbued witli the heart-throb of Christian belief. Real Rei("ion iu The Home. Ur. Stiiie.v admitted that it was a diflicult thins ic have real reh'f'ion i:i the. home because of the practical ev eryday worries that come in conr.e;- tion with the workaday world. He urijed that nieii must set the habit of holding fast to Jesus and as a conse quence their spiritual strength would o\i:rtome the daily difScuitie.^. CHKISTIAN CHURCH BANaOET. The members of the Chri^tan Church held their annual banquet iii the neiw Isley building Tuesday even- inf. About two hundred and seventy- iSve WCTe present. llie hall was beautifully decorated with ^tted plants and cut flowers. A: splendid menu was served.

REPUBLICANS MAKE SW^P IN .\EW JEBSEY, THE PRl^t- DENrS HOME. Increase Their Majorities in Both Branches of the Legialature. Trenton, Nov. 2.—Republicans tightened their grip on President Wil- ’i«}n’s home State today, when they elected a LegislSto^ iAich wHl have increased RepdtjRcan majorities in iioth branches. Six senators wera eiected in as many counties and an entirely new House of Assembly of sixty members. ’ In the Senate last year there were eleven Republicans and ten Demo crats, while the House was composed of thirty-eight Republicans and twen ty-two Democrats, ever come out” and everybody, says Hen- Wiegand, is spoiling for a fight. The Herr correspondent gives us the unpression that the German fleet would wipe the waves with the John Bull navy if the said navy wasn’t afraid to leave its hiding place. Still, we can’t quite get over the fact that for some reason or other no ship of an enemy of England sails the sea, anywhere on earth. But of course we Americans ar* all such mutts that we can’t see thnough a window, according to the American- born correspondents who write pieces froai Germany for us to read. Prom the way Wiegand and the rest of them write, the folks in Germany nrast think you can put anything over on an American newapapei- reader.— Durham Sun. The regular monthly busintisii meet of the Christian Endeavor Society of the Christian Church was held at the hon\e of Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Horne, Monday night.

Delightful refreshments in two courses were served. Everjrone enjoy ed the evening very much. Some of Us who thoBj^t Gernasiy would not last three moaths do no* now know exactly wfcat to think of it.
