Irish comedian, heads the companyand will appear in the burlesques "Downat Murphy's Home" and "Hades and theFour Hundred." Other prominent vaude-ville people with the show are Nat Leroy,Craig and Ardel. Bonita and her pickanin-nies, the Orpheus comedy four and Georgeand Lllla Brennan.
The sale of single tickets for the Dam- -rosch-EIspha- m concert WednerJay eveningIn the Claypool Auditorium will open thismorning at the Cincinnati.

Thedemand for subscription tickets last weekwas very satisfactory, and Mrs. Ona B.Talbott, who is acting as local manager ofthe series of musical events scheduled iortho Clavoool Auditorium this season, isassured of a large audience for the initialrecital. With such artists as Walter Dam-rosc- h
and David Blspham giving Wagner'sgreat sacred work, "Parsifal," in recitalform, there is every reason for a displayof Interest in Wednesday night's offering.
t XXX"The Worst Woman In London." the Eng-
lish melodrama that was one of the sensa-tions of last season In the British metropo-lis, will be given its American productionthis evening at the American Theater, thehome of melodrama In New York. Thewoman engaged to play the title role turnsout to be Ann Fairchild. an Australian act-ress. For some unaccountable reason themanagement of the American Theater hasbeen maklns a secret of this actress Iden-tity the theatrical people in New Yorkhave been wondering who the "worst womanIn London" was to be. Miss Fairchild Is notknown in this country. She is said to be avery capable actress.

gagement is for Tuesday and Wednesdayevenings with a Wednesday matinee. Noplay seen here last season left a better im-
pression than did this pretty stage-tol- d
story of Scotch country life. Mr. Stoddart.In his portrayal of old Lachlin Campbell,Is one of the finest figures on the Americanstage to-da- y, and Mr. Fax's impersonationof "Fostey" is another splendid characteri-zation.

THE THREE INCARNATIONS
SUBJECT OF REV. J. CT31MEVG
SMITH'S TABERNACLE SERMON.
Incarnation of Jesns Throws Lightotf All the Problems Overhang,
log "World Progress.
The .Ttev. J. Cumming Smith, pastor ofthe Tabernacle Church, delivered a sermonyesterday morning on the text. "The ThreeIncarnations," taken from Revelation xxl,1 to O. Mr. Smith said:
"It Li perfectly consistent with our rever-ence for God and our appreciation of theexhautleness of truth to attempt a littlesynopsis of the Scriptures, and for this rea-son. The Bible Is characterized by a com-prehensive simplicity. It is an organicunity. : It Is a triumphal procession of afew controlling ideas that grew out of thedcepesf. abysms of the universe. As theacorn Into the oak, as the seed germ intothe ruHdy and burdened apple tree, asthe infiint colony into a mighty republic, soevolution stamps all the works of God, andthe IJil'le is not an exception, but an exam-ple.
"Thefo are three successive purposes Inthe revelation. The first is the effort ofthe dKine mind to unveil and unshrouditself, fco far as practicable, in a concretehuman; statement. This effort lasted abouttwenty- - centuries. To establish His centralindestructible unity, to put the governmentof the jworld and all connected worlds onthe bailc pillars of one creative mind inopposition to the idea then prevalent of thereign cf many gods, multitudinous deitiesenshrined everywhere, in sun and moonand webd and sea wave and sea cave andnight V;ind and storm that was the firstcontinuous purpose of the centuries. Itwas a1 campaign of education to uprootpolytheism and institute theism. The Jewswere originally idolaters in the fine genericsense. Abraham and his ancestors oriKi- -nally worshiped images, not as substitutes,but as4 stepping stones to the InvisibleBeing, lust as a man holds as sacred thelocket in which some sign of the love ofins niejis treasured. Better far be an ido-later th.n make the unseen universe a vac-uity aiid blank space. Better far blockout a tew acres In a sterile desert than tryto maktj a farm on air or subsist on noth-ingness,
j UNITY OF GOD."Now; the whole current of revelation In
the earjy books sets toward the enthrone-ment of the unity of God. And with thistruth the unity of the world keeps con-genial company. There Is no dualism any-where. iThere are no two deities, one white,and the! other black; one the author ofgood ad the other the fountain and de-
signer j of . evil. Satan is sub anderrand jrunner. From . one wood atthe davjn fly forth birds of many notes;some wjth sweet melody and some withharsh streams, but the wood as the start-ing poiiit is one. From one God all thestreams'of creation Issue. Good is the posi-tive elchient and evil is but a negationof good as shadows but the absence oflight. Therefore evil must pave the wayfor good in one mysterious way. A childcan follow this argument. I doubt if atrue CJol is not as clear to a sunny, con-fiding clUld. radiant with all the untaintedInstincts of early life as to the more for-mal ami perhaps stereotyped minds ofcollege imen. We grow 0 complicatedwith out years that God, so simple in theInherent' genius of Ills devotedness andlove, blAks down Into dimness Jlke thesun behind & thick wood.
"First ; there was a march or movementto exalt Ithe unity of the divine nature, anda hundred collateral truths cling to thisonG truth. Then there slowly came a sec-ond treäienduous inspiration; It was thetendency to go further than crystal state-ments a,bout the perfect unity in heavenand ' to incarnate His living personalityand to incarnate in a human form. In thissecond division of time, there is thefunction; of the prophets who fore-shadowed a Messiah, born a babe InBethlehem. This second Incarnation restedon the truth not only of the condescend-ing tenderness of the infinite leadershipto enter j our life from cradle to cross andthus wow our hearts, but of the far morelm porta lit principle that there is a divineelementJa our earthly life that made thelife of Ghrlstlike the meeting of two con-genial nttures. "We are divine. "We havebodies, but we are souls. It was thereforean honof; to God to clothe himself in ournature fbr a season, to multiply himselfas it wtjre, Just as the plant reproducesItself In every seed germ that drops onthe soil .or floats In the breeze to seek anew honie. The hymns therefore err anda rigid theology equally errs when it bankson the doctrines of total depravity andoverloks J other phases of the Bible thataffirm tile universal element of goodnessvested iu men.
LjGHT ON THE SUBJECT."The incarnation of Jesus, therefore,
throws light on all the problems overhang-ing our progress, but on none more thanon this: that man is the son of Godby spiritual creation; that, however farhe may jwallow In the mire or blemishhimself, just as naughty children dressedin fresh j snow-whi- te clothes by a proudmother cJr nurse will go forth and forgetall the cJptn garb and plunge Into puddlesor staining weeds, and however farsome raies may desecrate their virtueand riot j In evil, that, nevertheless, theycannot dxpunge God. lie built himselfinto theiit nature at its very constitution,just as 4n adroit manufacturer of glassglobes orj fine linen paper will weave thename of the firm in such a way that youcan't efface it without destroying the ar-ticle lstelf. Now, all this line of reflectionleads irresistibly to the third and final in-carnation! The first is God expressing him-self in all the orbit of Ills magnificent be-ing in hjirnan language or photography;the secorld is His manifestation ef Illseffulgence in the personality of Christ; thethird is the long effort to establish him-self. Ills Attributes of love and holiness Inhumanity I universal. This is the ultimatepurpose kj'pt constantly in view through allthe ages jf an unfolding revelation. It isone unifld purpose that may brook someobstacles ror a while, but must override alldifficulties! ultimately and subdue a world.This Is tre meaning of the millennium asthe objective point; and we are perhaps ontne verge- - or a uoa-reigni- ng era that willcrown tho labor of struggling centuriespushing fbrward toward ideal realizations.
"It is dvldent that nothing of essentialtruth in hygone ages is lost or can withlevity be Shoved aside. The Old Testament,In its central constructive principles. Is car-ried forward into the new, and Jesus hon-ored Moss and his colleagues and all thepeerage 0$ prophets as He honored His ownriiselDles. tWhv? Because it was on nur.pose, onej regiment of valiant conqueringprinciples jtramping through all the booksand all tlje world wherever there Is prog-ress towaj-- d the divine. Hence reverentmen arc Essentially conservative on prin-ciples, whjle they may be radical on meretechnical --(tatements or forces.
'AGE TOO FLIPPANT."Our arfo is too flippant with serious
ideas. "Wtj treat them as nut-hunti- ng boyson these Afternoons treat hickory or wal-nuts; they, crack open the shells and flingthem cartjej-sl- y aside. They are after themeat, the kernel.

RIGHT USE OF OURSELVES
SECOND OF A SERIES OF SERMONSBY IlEV. II. W. KELLOGG.
Anarchism, He Says, Is DangerousLong Before It Takes l'p Weapons
Other Thoughts Expressed.
"Right Thinking" was the subject lastnight of the second lecture of the series on"The Right Use of Öurselves," by the Rev.II. W. Kellogg-- , pastor of the Central-avenu- e
Methodist Church. A large audiencelistened to Mr.' Kellogg's discourse on"Right Thinking." He said in part:
"Man Is made for thinking. This provi-sion is in the original plan. Every functionof his being is adapted to this end. So. Itake It, thinking Is not hurtful, but healthy.But for the best results the body must bein good condition. I do not want a dyspep-tic to do my thinking, especially on re-
ligion. It is not surprising that we und theEnglishman seeking sunny Italy or theclear and bracing air of Switzerland forbest conditions of thinking.
"If It is natural to think, it is religiousto think, for true religion Is doing naturalthings. It is when the entire organism ofman is most perfectly adjusted and work-ing out its original designs that we may besaid to be most religious. Religion Is notan artificial restraint, but nature at its nor-mal point following highest purposes. Sinis that which disarranges and defeats.Thinking is sacred. Taking everything intoconsidereration, the one who thinks mostand best has the soundest character. Ourstate charity reports show that those con-
fined In our penitentiaries and reforma-tories are far below the average In educa-tion. This confirms the statement thatthere is an intimate relation between themind and the morals; where one Is workingstrongly the other Is most apt to be right.
"Thinking Is man's distinctive glory, hissupreme honor. In this he is distinguished;by it he excels and conquers creation.Liotze points out to us that man is out-matched at every point by some animal.The lion is stronger, the deer swifter, theeaglo clearer of sight and the hare clearerof hearing, but he controls them all be-cause he thinks." He has' made his con-quests by thinking. He has made hiscourse from weakness to power, from bar-barism to civilization, by thinking. Hethinks and his cave home is changed to apalace. He thought and beasts carried hisburdens. He kept on thinking and the ele-ments became his servants. No one canrecount the achievements of humanthought.
"How to think is important. Throughthinking man has been learning how tothink and has increased his power oftnought. Training thought has made ourrace strong. We have taken advantage ofthe discoveries of laws of thought by allnations, ancient and modern, and we havecome to greatness. We shall improve yet,and the victories to be won will be greaterthan any we have yet gained.
CLOSELY IDENTIFIED.4What to think is closely Identified with
the rules of thinking. There are badthoughts, as there are bad deeds, and badthoughts are wrong thoughts. It is im-portant that we direct the thought to goodthings. Here we are met by a class whoobject to restrictions on thought and askfor freedom. 'To prescribe thought is tobelittle our nature and impose slavery; It Isbigotryand shall not lx tolerated.' There hasbeen a restriction of thought in certain agesand under certain conditions that was notbeneficial and has tended to hinder theprogress of tho world. Yet to say thateverywhere else laws are to be prescribedexcept on thinking Is to be careless of thehighest force of human life. Thinking hasmuch to do in the formation of character.and character is no trilling thing. Thinkinghas everytning to ao wun r.uman actions,and actions are not to be regarded withindifference. It does matter what a manthinks. If he thinks according to rieht andvirtue he has the highest liberty, but ifhe thinks wnat is wrong and attempts topractice such thoughts he should be pun

ished. Anarchism is dangerous long beforeit takes up weapons to carry into actionthe thought. i
"It is best to fill the mind with purethought, with true and good thoughts, ofwhich there is no limitation. 'Whatsoeverthings are true, good, right, lovely and ofgood report, think on these, and there isrestriction.' Who shall decide what thoughtsare good and true? This is not difficult.Let the standard be, not what the past hasruled only, not the present laws, but letthe test be utility. Right thinking must bewith purpose, as all right action is.
"The purpof must determine the char-acter of it. Thought must be consecratedto the highest uses of humanity; it mustmean service. And is not this the charac-teristic of our age? The great thought Isbecomlnc devoted to man. Professor Morsethinks, and lightning is man's servantThinking is no longer in the heavens, buthas come down tc dwell with man.
"It Is our duty to think. The decree isenforced by nature, and by its result Intel-lectual lazines is a crime. . We owe it toourselves that we think, for our powersmust be Improved. We owe it to God, whomade us, for by this we glorify the Cre-ator. We owe It to the world, for whosegood and joy we are here, and we shouldnever shrink from contributing our part tothe producing forces of the world. Think,think rightly, with strength and purpose,and we shall fulfill the will of God.
SERMONS PEOPLE LIKE
difference: of opi.mox amongMINISTERS ON TUE SUBJECT.
Revs. J. Cnmmlng Smith, Albert Hurl-aton- e,
M. JL. Haines and II. W.Kelloggr Express Vlevrs.
"What eort of sermon does the averagecongregation like the best? Is what may betermed the eeml-mor- al sermon gainingground over the purely orthodox sermon?"
A number of the prominent clergymen ofIndianapolis were asked yesterday after-noon to express their opinions upon thesequestions. No two of the clergymen Inter-viewed seem to agree in their answers to thequestions. The Rev. J. Cumming Smith,pastor of the Tabernacle PresbyterianChurch, says the kind of sermon an audi-ence will like best depends upon the make-up of the audience and also upon the minis,ter addressing that audience. It cannot be.said, Mr. Smith thinks, that any one kind ofsermon will appeal equally to Indiscriminateaudiences.
The Rev. Albert Hurlstone, of RobertsPark Church, oa the other hand seems to beof the opinion that the average Sunday-mornin- g
congregation addressed by theaverage minister will take more Interest inthe so-call- ed semi-mor- al sermon than anyother sort of religious discourse.
Rev. Smith said: "The kind of sermonall congrcgatloi s want is the sermon whichwill do the moat practical good. But Justthe kind of sermon which will do the mostgood depends upon another point. If theaudience is very elevated In Intelligencethey will find tho sermon of most practicalhelp which will explain the divine thingsin accordance with what knowledge theaudience has. For example, the scientificaudience wants the sermon and likes thatsermon best which clothes the supernat-ural Ideas in a scientific garb.
"On the other hand the emotional audi-ence will find a sermon of most practicalgood which wül arouse their feelings bypathos or tragedy. Therefore the practicalsermon is a relative matter, depending al-together upon the cast of the mind in thepulpit and the mental caliber or Intellect-uality in the pew. In all cases the object ofall sermons should be to present the gospelin such a way as to be most effective; andif a sermon failu of this purpose it is some-times the fault of the minister and some-times the fault of his audience. I think theso-call- ed moral fcermons are all right andhave their mission, but it must be borne Inmind that unless such discourses are basedupon cardinal truths they will fall of theirpurpose. It cannot be said that the so-call- ed
semi-mor- al sermon Is best fitted tonil audler.Ts. ThA klaudience will like best aud the kind of asermon wnicn wm uo tho most practicalgood mt Vhe make-u- p of

MOST PRACTICAL GOOD.Said the Rev. Horlstone: "It seems to
me that for the average man or womanthe sermon termed semi-mora- l, for the lackof a better expression, may be of the mostpractical good. I have come to this con-
clusion after much study and thought andobservation. The average man cr womanwants something very tangible somethingthat can be grasped readily and to thisman or woman I believe tho sermon whichdeals a good deal with moral questions-mor- al,
commingled with religious, I mean,of course appeals more strongly than anyother sort of religious discourse."
"It . is not so much a question of whatdoes the audience want as what sort ofsermon will do this audience most good,"said the Rev. M. L. Haines, pastor of theFirst Presbyterian Church. "And the kindof a sermon which will do the most goodfor the majority of people, I think, is thesermon which sets forth and explains thegreat religious principles and truths in re-lation to our everyday life. This, I think.Is the ideal which should guide the workof every true .minister, every minister whoIs struggling to accomplish the most last-ing good. The really true and good sermoncontains both the moral and the religiousaspects, but the moral must not be taker!away from the great religious principles."
"It depends a good deal upon the make-up of the audience what sort of sermonwill be of most good and will be regardedas best and most Interesting," said theRev. 11. W. Kellogg, pastor of the Central-avenu- e
Methodist Church. "The best plan.It seems to me, is to vary the kind of ser-mon. I find that for audiences In whichthere are a great many young people it isnecessary In order to achieve the best re-sults to include . considerable of the emo-tional element I find that the purely ortho-dox sermons are of great good, but it Ismuch more difficult to keep up the interestOi the audience with this kind of sermonthan with the so-call- ed more practical dis-course. But I find, at the same time, thatmy congregation will be toned up andhelped as much. Indirectly, at most times,by the sermon based on the old funda-mental religious truths as by the so-call- ed
semi-mor- al or more practical 6ermons."
CHAT OF THE MORNING.
A Gossip Cure.It is a talented social reformer who can
deftly mingle business and diversion."As .a general thing. In our neighborhood
literary club, the conversation is on a highplane," said a tall, thoughtful girl, whohad withal a hint of mischief in her calm,gray-blu- e eyes, "but the other evening themen and women got to gossiping; yes. theydid. and with three clergymen in the cote-rie, too. It was partly literary gossip, thatis. gossip with a literary fringe to It, butit was sheer out and out gossip, after all.
"It seemed to me that we all might bemuch better employed, and I also had awicked Idea that a rare chance presenteditself for, bringing home the detrimentalcharacter of gossip by personal illustra-tion. So I said very artlessly to one of theclergymen: 'How foolish for us to spendour time in gossip about these people whomwe know but casually. If we really musthave gossip let's gossip about people thatwe know all about; let each person herepresent tell his and her own past.
"The genial clergyman winked alertlyand graciously at me yes, he winked, andpromptly presented my plan to the assem-bly. Well, it was a bomb. I do assureyou. I do wish I could show you a snap-shot of all those Intellectual people search-ing their inner records for creditable recol-lection of by-go- ne experiences. The mostpoetical man present enthusiastically saidhe would gladly unveil his past, but hiswife came to the front In haste, and saidthat he should do nothing of the kind;that there were various incidents in hiscareer which she would not want to see Inprint. Others made feeble and bombasticinsistence of taking the entire cold-blood- ed
literary club into their personal sentimentalconfidences, and turned on me with thoclaim that as I had proposed tho unlquoentertainment, I should lead oft in reveal-ing my own heart history.
"Of course," concluded the till girl. "Iscouted the suggestion as a palpable breachof courtesy to the others, and, after a llt-t- lo
flippant discussion, the matter dropped.No doubt I shocked everybody, but roy rc--
