CHINESE BOLT ARMS PARLEY
Claim America and Great Britain Are Backing Japan's Claims.
THREE MORE DELEGATES QUIT
Sixty Advisers of the Peking Delegation Book Passage for Home—See No Hope of Redressing China's Grievances.
Washington, Dec. 8.—A tentative proposal for an agreement between the United States and other powers to replace the Anglo-Japanese alliance has been cabled to London as well as to Tokyo as a result of the meetings of the arms conference's "big three"—America, Great Britain and Japan. Official confirmation of the report that the suggestion for a new international concert had taken definite form was given by the British. Details were not revealed, but an authorized British spokesman said that "certain suggestions were formulated and telegraphed to London" after the conference last week between Charles Evans Hughes, Arthur J. Balfour and Admiral Tomosaburo Kato. The British spokesman added that it might fairly be inferred that, if these proposals should find general acceptance, they would have the effect of terminating the Anglo-Japanese alliance, for which there would be no further use. Resolutions insuring the territorial integrity of China and providing for use of wireless stations in China were adopted unanimously by the nine powers committee on Pacific and Far Eastern questions.
Washington, Dec. 8.—China practically has bolted the armament conference, charging America and Great Britain with backing the claims of Japan.
Three more of the delegation resigned and it became known thirty Chinese advisers have booked passage for home December 17 and thirty others the last of the month.
The action of the Chinese has disturbed the American delegation. It was said, whoever charges China has not been dealt with justly, either is uninformed or makes the charges for some utterter purpose.
Following closely on the resignation of Dr. Phillip K. C. Tyau, secretary, because of resentment at the treatment accorded Chinese problems, came three more resignations. They were:
Gen. Huana Fu<sup>1</sup> chief military adviser.
Chow Tsi-Chi, former minister of finance and chief financial adviser.
Admirai Tsat-Ying-Kau<sup>2</sup> chief of the naval advisers and also assistant director of Chinese customs.
Cause of Move.
The resignations were said to have been caused by the alleged "mishandling" of China's case in the conference, the following charges being made:
1. That China had - been "hoodwinked" at every stage in having proposals shelved in committee.
2. That Great Britain and the United States were backing Japan at the expense of China.
Dr. Paul Rensch and Lenox Simpson, advisers to the Chinese government, were said to have told eminent Chinese editors the conference, instead of redressing China's grievances at the hands of Japan and other powers, has "legalized before the world tribunal Dai Nippon's parapont position in China."
V.G
creet sessions of the Fur Eastern committee that the withdrawal of Japanese troops and police boxes from China was contingent upon the ability of the Peking government to take care of itself.
The new developments discovered were that Japan opposes granting China even a tariff of $7 \frac{1}{2}$ per cent, much less the $12 \frac{1}{2}$ which China had been led to believe she would be granted.
The resentment among the Chinese centers, however, about the "ineffective way" in which China's case has been presented.
CHARLES PIEZ ASKS DECREE
Former General Manager of Emergency Fleet Corporation Charges Wife With Desertion.
Chicago, Dec. 8.—Charles Plez, former president of the Illinois' Manufacturers' association and general manager of the emergency fleet corporation during the war, has filed suit for divorce against Laura Olivia Flora Plez.

Los Angeles, Cal., Dec. 8.—Eight Americans are said to be under arrest at Ensenada, Lower California, and their fishing boat, the Mabel, has been selzed, according to a report to customs officers at the harbor here. The arrest and seizure took place last Sunday and was a result of contention by Mexican officials that American fishing boats are illegally operating off the coast of Mexico.

Berlin, Dec. 8.—The bodies of only thirteen of the more than 100 persons killed in the explosion at the Nobel dynamite works at Saarlonis, Rhenish Prussia, have been recovered, according to the latest reports received here. The number of injured has not been ascertained. The explosion, which occurred in an oil tank, destroyed the greater part of the factory. Houses in the neighborhood suffered badly, roofs being blown off and the walls collapsing. Fire which started in the ruins spread to the surrounding forests.

The plow evolved slowly from a crude instrument of wood into the steel tool of today. In many parts of the world even today a very primitive form of wooden plow is still in use.

THE PHILOSOPHER OF COAL
A WOODEN MAN
without dreaming of the immense value of the waste product, coal tar. In the Middle Ages it was manufactured for use in the arts and for domestic purposes. The earliest record of cooking coal in a regular oven was in 1620, when a patent was granted in England to Sir William. St. John for
In 1771, there lived in the forest near Saarbrücken, in Germany, a chemist named Staul. He was an eccentric old man who had an idea, far ahead of his times, that many things beside coke could be obtained in the combustion of bituminous coal. Staul had constructed a number of ovens over a burning mine and treated coal so that he obtained oil, pitch, coke and soot. That was quite a forward step and although he lived in the depths of a forest the great minds of Europe heard of his work. In fact, Goethe, himself made a pilgrimage to the ovens of the far-seeing chemist and in his autobiography wrote a striking comment on his visit to the Saarbrücken forest:
making coke in a bee hive type of oven. Later patents were granted in England, Scotland and Germany, and finally in 1817, we find Isaac Meason "making coke in the ground" in Fayette County, Pennsylvania.
"Ready and glad to pour his complaints into a human ear, the lean deceptive, little man, with a shoe on one foot and a slipper on the other, and with stockings hanging down and repeatedly pulled up in vain, dragged himself up the mountain to where the pitch house stood which he had built himself and saw with grief now falling into ruins. Here was found a connected row of ovens in which coal was to be freed from sulphur and made fit for use in the iron works; but at the same time they wished also to recover the oil and pitch, and indeed, did not want to lose the lamp black, so that all failed together on account of the many ends in view."
That was the crude beginning of one of America's key industries, for from these bee hive ovens, wasteful as they were, grew the great modern plants that astonished the world during the war by their production of poison gases, high explosives, fertilizers and other vital necessities. In times of peace these plants produce dyes and great quantities of intermediates for the manufacture of other commodities. In times of war they are easily converted into strongholds of defense.
You will remember that it was an English boy who discovered the possibility of manufacturing dyes from coal tar but England let the great as a result slip through her fingers and as a result she found herself in a bad way when war took place in 1914. It was humiliating for the United States to be caught mapping and to be compelled to beg Germany to sell us dyes to color our stamps and currency but England found herself in a far more serious situation. She had no dyes for her uniforms or flags, and no drugs for her wounded. She could not sell to the former German markets because she could not color her textiles. She could not send sufficient high explosives or gasses to the front because she lacked the essential coal tar crude.
Goethe, who dubbed the chemist of Saarbrücken "Kohenphilosoph" or the Philosopher of Coal, wrote his commentary less than a century and a half ago. What would be his comment today could he enter one of the great American plants where almost unlimited numbers of products are obtained from the distillation or partial combustion of coal.

REGULAR MASONS NOT
CONCERNED IN ATTEMPTED
LYNCHING AT SIOUX CITY
Keokuk, Iowa, Dec. 6.—The attempted lynching of Sam Jones, Negro mason, at Sioux City, Iowa, on the night of November 30 by members of his lodge for alleged betrayal of Masonic secrets, has been investigated by the regular Masonic authority for Iowa, who found that those concerned in the affair were not identified with nor recognized by the regular Masonic fraternity.
A little more than a year ago some kind of an organization was placed in Sioux City, Iowa, by persons from outside the state, which they said was a ledge of Masons, but with which the legitimate craft has had no fraternal intercourse whatever.
This statement is made for the better information of the public and as a measure of justness to regular masons wheresoever dispersed. W. W. GROSS, Grand Master of Masons in Iowa.

Sermon of Strength
I am sure everyone who had the
pleasure of hearing Dr. W. H. Griffith,
pastor of St, Paul A. M. E. church on
jast Sunday morning was more than
liited up with “‘joy unspeakable.’? He
selected as his text, ‘The Joy of the
Lora is Your strength.’? Theme, ‘The
Ministry of Joy.”’ Dr. Griffin in his
usual manner of oratorieal eloquence
delivered one of the best sermons ever
heard, The church was in a perfect
state of recipieney. He pietured the
eouditions of man in his relation to the
‘one supreme element essential to make
life here and beyond complete which is
real joy. aes
Dr. Griffin also made the way so plain
that a-wayfaring man, though a fool
could not ere in the way he differen-
tiated ,the words, Mirth, Happiness and
Joy, And as the well thinking mind
that followed his discourse, could not
but agree with him in the diseription
of the three words, he said in past that,
mirth is but the fleeting expression of
one’s personality, the outward man may
seem mirthful, while the inner man is
burdened beyond expression. Happi-
ness comes from outward environment,
the very same condition or fulfillment
of desire that brings happiness will
bring sorrow. He proved to us prac-
tically speaking that roses have thorns
and the the thistle has a beautiful heli-
trope blossom, '
|
He further -placed particular stress
on the supreme thought. Real joy -
habitual, something that remains, s0
different from the-two former thoughts
in which he compared the impregnable
Gibralter to the ever living ‘‘Rock of
Ages’? Christ. Tho former fail, the
latter stands forever. S0 does real
joy whose foundation is Christ.
Before he completed his discourse
the Lord truly manifested His presence
by a baptisimal shower of His holy
spirit and our souls eried out in the
language of David, ‘‘Restore unto me
the joy of thy salvation.’’ |

“The Sun fairy couldn't be seen by

such a dazzling bright dress no one

than one could look at the Sun. No

‘Philemon.
This Is a private letter. Philemon
was a member of the church at Colos-
se. Onesimus, his slave, wronged him,
perhaps stole from him,.and fled to
Rome. There he came under Paul's
fnfluence and was converted. Paul
rent Onesimus back to Philemon with
this letter, ‘This is one of the most
tender and beautiful letters ever writ-
ten, and the first anti-slavery petition
ever penned.
1, The Salutation (vv. 1-3).
His aim was to touch zune
heart, so refers to himself as a
ner, and links Philemon to himself
as a fellow-laborer In the Gospel of
truth. He makes mention of Apphis,
Phitemon’s wife, and Archippus, the
son, who had already enlisted as a fel-
log-soldier.
I. Philemon’s Reputation (vv. 4-7).
Paul paid a fine tribute to Phile
mon, reminding him that he never
prayed without bearing him up before
God. This is a fine example of tact
on the part of the minister,
1. His falth ‘and love toward the
Lord and all saints (v, 5). It was
his hope and desire that this faith
‘faight bear fruit in Christ Jesus.
2, His ministry to the saints (v. 7).
Philemon was generous in his help to
the poor saints.
Ill, Paul's Request (vv. 8-16).
He requested Philemon to receive
back Onesimus, the runaway slave, as
a brother in Christ.
1. He beseeches instead of com-
mands (vy. 8-10). Though conscious of
his right to enjoin, he pleads as the
Prisoner of Jesus Christ for love's
sake.
2.Hé makes his plea on the
grounds of grace (vy. 11-14). He
admitted ‘that Onesimus had been un-
profitable—had forfeited all claim
upon Philemon, and that on grounds
ok Sustlee Aik ples let, wet bate
jected, and yet Onesimus was begot-
ten in his bonds (v. 10)—was in a real
sense a part of his own suffering na-
ture (v. 12)—he ventured to suggest
that he should be accepted. Though
Onesimus hitherto had been whprofit-
able to his master, now was profitable
to both Paul and Philemon. Paul
would gladly have retained bim as a
personal attendant, but sought first
his friend's permission.
8. Paul desired that Onesimus be
received back not as a slave, but aa
a brother in Christ (vv. 15, 16). Here
is the real fugitive slave law. Pau)
never attacked slavery, though {t was
contrary to Christianity, and therefore
hateful to him, but emphasized prin-
ciples which destroyed it, ‘The estab-
lishment of Christianity changes the
whole face of human society. ‘The
wise thing to do is to get men and
women regenerated and thus trans
form soclety instead of seeking change
by revolution.
In Paul's request you can bear the
pleadings of Christ for us sinners. All
ren have broken loose—gone astray—
and have become unprofitable, We
are reconciled to God through the in-
terceding of Christ, He has made us|
profitable. We have been begotten in
His bonds—through His passion, ag-
ony of heart, we shall be changed.
Il, The Basis Upon Which Onesim.
us Is to Be Received (vv. 17-21).
‘The debt of guilty Onesimus ts to
be put to the account of Paul, and the
merit of Paul is to be put to the ac.
unt of Onesimus. This is a fine il-
ustration of the atonement of Christ,

SUNDAY SCHOOL NOTES
Dec, 4 our attendance was norms!
and the hour well spent discussing the
principles involved im the lesson. The
sehool was very helgfully catechised
by ex-Superintendent’ C. B. Woods.
With thankful hearts we praise the
nanic of Him who ever liveth, that he
has so wondrously wrought through us
to the advaneement of the school.
We have not attempted to advance
every phase of the work. About Jan.
12, 1920 we set out to equip the school
and along this line mueh has been done
but there also remaineth much more
to be done.
However, we hope our successor who
ever he or’ she is, will give more time
to organization and methods of tcach-
ing and the keeping of proper records
cte., although this is merely a sugget
tion, for it would be contrary to ou
spake up, fit were ip ow omer
fietate the plams or policy of an a
aiministration. ‘Nevertheless om
