Preached Sunday to the Congregation of the Wealthy Fifth Avenue Pres byterian Church of New York. fNew York Journal. 11th.) The Rev. Dr. Peyton H. Hoge, of Wilmington, N. C, who is regarded as the probable successor of the Rev. Dr. John Hall as pastor of the wealthy Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church preached to the congregation of that church yesterday morning. The text of his sermon, which was essentially doctrinal In Its character, was from Jeremiah xv., 16: "Thy words were found and I did eat them, and Thy word was unto me the Joy and rejolc ing of my heart, for I am called by Thv name. O. Lord of Hosts." He said during his discourse. "No one will attempt to deny the high grade of scholarship of modern Bibli cal criticism, but no one who has fol lowed the course of the modern criti cism has not noticed that, at its best, its tendency has been toward a strengthening ,of the belief In the Bi ble." It Is believed by many that Dr. Hoge has been flnaly decided upon by the trustees as the future active pastor of the church, but no call could be ex tended to him untjl after the meeting of the trustees in October.

"Well, my man, are you a contented fellow?" ask ed the old gentleman. Yea, sir; very." "Then why do you want my field?" The aplicant did not wait to reply. Judy.
