As to the doctrines for which he was will ing to die and for which he was willing to kill, I believe them to be dead to the world. But these doctrines existed for nearly ' four centuries and their results were of great value to the human race." Edwin D. Mead, of Boston, did not agree with President Eliot that Calvin Ism, was dead. Ho said be was a mem ber of the Free Religious Association and consequently would be classed as a radical in religious matters, but he recognized the potency of Calvinism, the central doctrine of which is by no means dead. Mr. Mead asserted that William T. Stead is a Calvlnist, and he also spoke of the great work which a Dutch Calvlnlst, Abraham Kulper, Prime Min ister of Holland, is doinc. . . . ; President Pa tton said that whatever one might think of the doctrines of John Calvin they must recognise his great in tellect, and, also that it was Calvin to whom was due the intellectual enfran chisement of the people of his time. : e i..Torta;.t :r..:t r - " '? tontliental .

SEABOARD AIR LINE RAILWAY, There appeared an article in The Observer of the llth, saying that the committee on transportation would recommend to the camp that the Southern Railway ; be used on thelr trip, account that line , hnvlng t; fered more liberal terms and that the Seaboard required, 70 or more to go. This Is a gross error. The Sea board will give the veterans a rate of S5.80 round trip and provide special cars on regular trains if there is only one to go. and the Seaboard, at the -camp room meeting held April 4th, offered mode liberal terms than , any line.- At that meetlmr we offered the veterans that we would make the tickets good returning fr Portsmouth without extra charge, the only extra they would have to pay would be $1.60,' the fare from Rich mond .to Norfolk.- The Southern could not at that meeting offer, ruch terms, and if they have now offered It, It Is because we made the first offer; and we also offeretr the com mittee if there were as many as 70 to go w would run a special train, leaving Charlotte at hour best smted to the veterans, and it would be en tirely for their use, composed of both parlor ears and coacnes, 11 they, so a sired..
