Pastor Russell Distends Biblical Ac- count—Jesus and the Apostles, His- tory and Science, Support Genesis Record—Higher Critics Held Rr spmw'Ibls Fel. Approaching Anarchy Brooklyn, Feb. 2. —Pastor Russell I o.d a y addressed the Brooklyn Coo- nnow gen- known as "The Bible Stu- dents." His text was, "As it was in the days of Noab, w also ,ben it be ire the days of the Stn of Man."— Luke 1716. The address opened with s soatbing arraign- ment of Higher Critics. Our richly endowed colleges, he declared, are undermining faith in the Bible, which mesas faith in a personal God, and substituting a scant recognition of the laws of Nature, devoid of sympathy or mercy. Practically every minister graduated during the last twelve years has been a believer in human evolu- tion. Disbelief in the Bible account of man's creation in God's image, means disbelief in a fall from that image, disbelief in the need of re- demption and reconciliation, and dis- belief in the necessity for the Resti- tution to be accomplished by Mes- siah's Kingdom Pastor Russell said that he does not question the sinoerity of Higher Critics. His own ezpeneoces along the same line forty years ago give him great sympathy for them. He in- sisted, however, that it is not honor- able for those who have abandoned the creeds to pose before the public ss supporters of those creeds, and to draw salaries and receive honorary titles for undermining the faith of the people, while posing as representa- tives of Christ and the Bible. He de- clared such a course dishone-t and dishonorable. The Deluge Corroborated By History. HYIJRO PEOPLE SUSPICIOUS. Do Not Want Any Competitors in the Field. Toronto Star. Jar. Eft Among those interested in the Hydro -electric scheme oof making elec- trical energy there is an opibion that the Ottawa bill to incorporate the Huron�Lake Shore Railway Company -joker" that may cause trouble to the municipal and Government ides. The proposed route is from Sarnia to Meaford, thro•igh the counties of Lambton, Huron, Bruce and Grey. The bill does not sey whether ;he hue t% to be steam or electric. There is a reference :o electricity, but it is not confined to the operation of the road. and, in consequence, the attention of Hon. Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railway', is called to this feature. Tbe rbiuse to which objection is taken empowers the cotupauv to ac- quire and dispose of elects is er other power or roergv "which of . be transmitted to any place in the u.uui- cipelit,ies through which the railway has cern constructed," sod to dispose of surplus pow er an! energy and col- lect rates. Tbe Dwnioiun Railway Commission, not the Hydro -electric ('owmissipo, Si to approve of the charges, eta. Of the men oh'aining the charter, as mentioned in the bill, one lives in Ottawa. and the others ere of Mon- treal. The head office is to be io Mon- treal. One criticism is : "What we feel is that they sbould not bave these power rights tacked oo to electric or other roadway charters, ezoept for the pur- pose of the railway. 1f they are going in for the power and electric light bur loess, let them say so. and if not, they ehould not bave the power. set out in this bill." , 'Tbe Hydro -electric Commission may be diffident about acting in this matter, acid • Hydro loe Hydro-elec- r to tricStar today, ba Conimiceaton is regarded as the people's we}tch•dog wbere. electric power is cobcerned. Power develop• ment is making head way everywhere in Ontario, and such joker clauses in railway bills may' prove a serious handicap some day. Such a clause as the one specified imposes no obliga- tion on the company to distribute power, but enables the cofripany to do so. In other words, there is the priv- ilege witbout any counter -balancing return required from the company. Electricity for the use of this railway is one thing, and the permission to dispose of it is quite another. is tbe company s renew or a power com- pany ? A dual identity should not be incorporated in one bill. The issue raised ought to be settled. not n but re- gard to this one company alone as a general principle." The speaker held that • Higher Cri- tics approach every Bible topic from the standpoint of unbelief, and de- clared that if they weld reverse their position and seek for corroborations of the Bible. their success would be better. These critics, ezpioring the ruins of Babylon, toand clay tablets rudely picturing the ark and con- taining a few words about • general deluge. Instead of saying that this confirms the Bible thought. they de- clare that- the Israelites in Babylon drew their story of the Deluge from B•bylounan legends. How nilly to sup- pose that the beautiful Genesis ac- count came from a few words record- ed by Babylonians: Pastor Russell promised that next Sunday he would' take duephettoal reasons Justifying the at humanity with the Deluge. Through bis sermons, printed weekly in hun- dreds of newspapers, those desiring might continue with him the study of the subject. Today he wished to show that natural causes tully confirm the words of Jesus, the Apostles and Moses respecting the Deluge. The great difficulty heretofore has been to harmonize the story of the Deluge with the shape of the earth. This has now been met. The Vailian theory respecting creation shows that when the earth was in a molten state, it, threw off minerals in the form of gases, which on cooling, separated more or less, according to density, and must have constituted great rings or bands about the earth, similar to those of. Saturn and Jupiter. As the earth cooled, these rings se. quired separate motions, because of their distance, but gravitated slowly toward the earth, the atmosphere pre- venting immediate precipitation. Gradually each would spread out as a greet canopy, gravitating toward the poles, because of centrifugal forme. Finally the accumulation at the poles would overcome the resist- ance of the atmosphere, and cause precipitation. Many such deluges occurred before man was created, and from these came mineral depoeite. The last of these rings consisted of pure water, and spread out as a canopy when man was created. It retracted the sun's rays much as would the root of a hot- house, and rendered uniform the tem- perature of earth. Frozen In Solid Ice.
