" The president of thefederated societies acted as chairman . Therewere about 100 people present , and the leeture was heard with great Interest , as theloug and exciting debate at the conclusionshowed . Mr. Macmillan commenced his lec-ture by saying that a starting point was abelief In the existence of a Supreme Being .It was In man's power to elevate himself' 0 the height designed by the Creator .IIan's first Impression of God might befound In the narrative of tIme Flood . Thehighest kind of mind today looked out onthe wicked world with sympathy : lookedupon God as a saint always helping man .With wickedness mans condition had beennlmoet unendurable before It was decided todestroy the world by the Flood . The Jewsbelieved that God had chosen them forfavor

Mr. MnpmMInn then read some versesfrom Russell Lowe bonrlng on the question ,

nnd closed his lecture by stating that theduty to Institutions In the future wax notthe sword , but peace , goodwill and duty toGod and our fellowman .

The applause and the lively debate thatfollowed showed how keenly Interested theaudience were In the lecture . Mr. Macmlllan was kept busy answering questions andexplaining some of his views . After a num-ber

When the miners ,about fifty years ago , got out all thepay coal there was III the mine, they cutaway many of the pillars , and thenfilled in the shaft is well as they could .In half a century this has shrunk confeldorably , 'as1' the cavity accidentally '
