Practical Survey.
Topic. -The spread of Christianity.
I. As a result of the dispersion.
II. By the founding of foreign mis-
sions.
L As a result of the diepersion.
Notwithstanding the opposition of the
chief rulers in Jerusalem, and some
startling defects among individuals,
associated with the early church, the
number of disciples increased and the
gospel gained strong support in the
midst of Judaism. Not until the sys
tematie persecution conducted bs
Saul of Tarsus did the emitted betty
of believers divide into companies
and settle in various parts of the
country, distant from jerusalem. Not
until after the conversion of Saul of
Tarsus, when persecution subsidea,
and when the apostle Peter had op.
portunity to visit the scattered disci -
'nee, was It known Just how faithful
the disciples had been in deelaring
the traths of the gospel wherever
they went. It was during his abseace
from Jerusalem that Peter experienc-
ed the great transition front Jewish
a• exclusiveness into Christian
ship that Corttelitua the first Geatile
convert, whom he received into the
church. Peter was more fully deliv-
ered f om his attachment to the .Tows
when Hertel put forth his autberity
to tumomplish for the ,IeWs what the
rulers bad been unable to do, in a
aurpose to destroy utterly the how
seat by putting to death its leatiero.
Ily Miraeulous power in answer to n
praying church Peter escaped death
and was delivered from prison. The
miracle in his behalf was like those
which ite bad performed in the name
of Christ, when he deelared healing
for Aeneas Mid restoration to life for
Doreen, Separated front the apostles
and distant from Jerusalem, the Nat-
tered disciples fotind Gentiles at An-
tioch who were moved by their worths
to embraee the -gospel. That strOng
body of npirituill Converts attracted
the attention of the heathen, who ills-

axles. Commissioned by the Holy
(Meet and net apart by the aurch,
theee two men began their journey in
full confidence that the gospel saould
be planted among the Gentiles. Faith-
'ful, scriptural preaching to the Jews
was their first effort in every town
they visited. Violent opposition sent
them from place to place, but not
without converts to maintain the gm
pel standards, jewish prejudice oc-
mimed the persecution on all oc-
casions. The heathen were readY to
crown the missionaries as gods until
Jewe who had followed them stoned
Paul and drew him out of the city and
left him for dead. Love for the new
converts surpassed fear of persecution
so that Barnabas and Saul determined
to retrace their steps, that they might
provide for the continuance of the
work among those who had embraced
the gospel amid so much persecution.
The Antioch church gave endorsement
to their returned miseloaaries. With-
out authority Judaizing teachers con-
teeted the admission of Gentiles into
the church without eircumeision. This
led to tho first churc1i coencil in
which the missionaries and the leaders
at Jerusalem,. agreed upon rules suit-
ed to Jew sand Gentile. Paul was again
constrained to continue missionary
work. What first seemed a serious
rupture ef Gad -ordained compainon-
ehip proved an occasion of extending
the work and the enlargement of
forces!, The Lord .changed Posit
course andled him to labor in Europe.

Washington Report.---Unoffidial
advices reached Washington to -night
to the effect that General Jacinto Tre-

General Carranza, has 'served notice
ou Brig-G-eneral John J. Perahing,
commanding the United States force
in Mexico, that any furthee southward
movement by the United States troops
will be regarded as a hostile act and
Alit be treated accordingly.
'Although official confirmation of the
report is lacking at both the State and
ar Departments, officials here are
apprehensive. Trevino is regarded
aere as the ablest of Carranza's gen-
mins. and one who is entirely in the
confidence of the de facto Govern-

in the absence of confirmation from
General Pershing, are unable to gauge
whether the threat is a Carranza bluff
or not.
Should any attack be made by the
Carranzistas, it is admitted that only
a miracle could prevent war between
Lhe two countries. It that event it
would be necessary, army eflicers

-Austria Claims Small
Checks.
London Cable, -There are no
signs of a halt in the powerful Rus-
sian offensive in Volhynia, Galicia
and Bukowlna. The latest Austrian
official statement tells of a Rusetan
check here and there, notably the de-
feat of a cavalry foree south of the
Dniester in Galicia, and the stopping
of -Russian efforts to cross the Stokhod
and the Styr la Volhynia. The Rus-
sians, however, are remaining en the
aggressive, attacking all along the Vol-
hynian front, and pressing hard
against the Austrian lines further to
the south.
The capture of approximately 170,000
men by the Russians since the incep-
tion of the offensive is claimed by
Petrograd, which declares that steady
advances are being scored against the
Austrian armies.

forecast some time ago, the newe has

Bukowina has twice formed a part

its return to the kingdom for a third
