VOL. XXII. LOVE WRONG SIDED Startling Development in Bush Case at Atlanta. BOMB SENDER IS JAILED Instead of Being Jilted Lover, Bush Was Jealous of Woman Who Was Engaged to Marry His Business Partner. Charged with sending a bomb to Miss McCarthy, at 447 East Georgia avenue, to murder the young lady, because she was about to wed Charlie Dolittle, with whom he was infatuated, the bomb nearly killing the girl's mother, Fred Bush was arraigned in the recorder's court at Atlanta Friday afternoon, and held in a $10,000 bond for assault with intent to murder. Charlie Doolittle was also arraigned, but the case against him was dismissed. The case was one of the most sensational that has ever been heard in any court in the city. The man who was held under such a heavy bond stood charged with attempting to annihilate a whole family and especially a young woman, because a young man visited the house for whom he had for many years held a deep, and what was believed to be an unnatural affection. It was brought out at the trial that act of Bush was that of a gilt lover, but the evidence in the case, which was investigated by the recorder brought out the fact that Fred Bush was so deeply attached to Charlie Doolittle that he tried to wreck a home and murder a household, rather than become separated from a youth, who was his partner in business and for whom his affection was almost a mania. In one part of the investigation the city attorney asked Doolittle if Bush ever hugged and kissed him, and Doolittle laughed slightly and replied that he did several years ago. Charlie Doolittle stood near Bush during the trial, and it was noted by more than one in the court room that Bush never took his eyes from the pale-faced youth by his side. Doolittle told nothing criminating against his business partner and warm friend. As the recorder remarked, he did all he could to shield Bush from the arm of the law. Itw as brought out at the trial that Doolittle is now, or was when the murder was attempted, Miss McCarthy's sweetheart. They were engaged to be married. Mrs. Julla McCarthy, the mother of the girl for whom the internal machine was indeed intended, and who was seriously injured, was not able to appear in court. The negro messenger boy, the only person who saw the man who sent the box to the McCarthy home, pointed Bush out in court as the man whom he had met on the night of the explosion. Miss McCarthy was on the stand and told about her love affairs with Doolittle and about how queerly he acted at times. Bush made a statement. His manner was cool, collected and suave. His reasons for everything was "business." It was business that made him object to Charlie Doolittle visiting young ladies; it was business that made him bring Charlie back to Atlanta from Florida; it was business that made him go to see Mrs. McCarthy; it was business that made him take such a deep interest in Charlie's affairs and act as his guardian and master. STRIKERS ADD TO DEMANDS. They Also Want the Abolition of the Fine System. A special from Oriilba, Mexlco, says that the 12,000 textile operatives who are out on strike have added to their demands for the abolition of the fine system. Suffering and destitution are becoming evident among the strikers, but they are defiant and obstinate. . RIDER MEETS HIS MATCH. Assaulted Hot Springs Doctor and is Fatally Stabbed. Dr. Thomas B. Rider, who has gained notoriety by suing former Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock for $100,000 in connection with a prolonged fight against the ethical doctors of Hot Springs, whom he claims were in a conspiracy to ruin him, was probably fatally stabbed late Friday afternoon by Dr. A. U. Williams, one of the wealthiest and most prominent physicians of Hot Springs. The stabbing followed an assault on Williams by Rider. The Savannah Tribune. GEORGIA WINS VICTORY. Big Copper Plants at Ducktown, Tenn. Declared to Be Nuisances in Decision by U. S. Supreme Court. Georgia has won its case against the Tennessee Copper company and the Ducktown Sulphur, Copper and Iron company in the United States supreme court. Dispatches from Washington Monday morning announced a decision in the famous litigation, which has been in the courts since 1903. The opinion was handed down by Justice Peckham, who declared that if Georgia pressed the case against the copper manufacturers an injunction would be issued against the defendant. For over three years Attorney General John C. Hart, assisted by Attorney Ligon Johnson, who has been associated with him in all the intricate litigation, has fought the case for the state of Georgia. The big copper roasting plants are at Isabella and Ducktown, Tenn., just across the line from Georgia. They began smelting in 1901 and by 1902 local evidences of destruction to vegetation from the sulphur fumes appeared. In 1903 the area of damage had spread across the Tennessee line and had appeared in the upper tier of Georgia counties. Complaints began coming to the state authorities, and the legislature of that year was petitioned to afford relief. A legislative committee was appointed to investigate, and if damages were found as set forth the governor was authorized to institute proceedings to abate a nuisance. The report of the committee more than sustained the allegations in the petition, and an appeal was made to the Tennessee governor to estop the nuisance. On refusal, legal proceedings were instituted. At that time the ors was roasted in the open and on the promise to abandon this method, legal action was dismissed. The abatement of the trouble was not permanent, however, and further complaints came from a wider area of destruction. Since then the case has been fought in the courts until now Georgia wins finally, being given power to completely suppress the nuisance. Nearly 100 miles of northern Georgia has been almost completely denuded of vegetation, and many farmers have had to practically abandon farming. This decision is expected to have far-reaching effect as a precedent, as other cases have awaited the outcome of the Georgia litigation. Coming to the proof in the case, Justice Holmes said: "Without any attempt to go into details, immaterial to the suit, it is proper to add that we are satisfied by a preponderance of evidence that the sulphurous fumes caused and threatened damage on so considerable a scale to the forest and vegetable life, if not to human health, within the plaintiff's state as to make a case within the requirement of the case of Missouri vs. Illinois. If the state addresses to its determination, there is no alternative to issuing an injunction after allowing a reasonable time to the defendant to complete the structures that they are now building, and the efforts that they are making to stop the fumes. The plaintiff may submit a form of decree on the convening of this court in October, next." PAT CALHOUN RADICAL. President of Frisco Trolley Roads Draws Line at Union Labor. One hundred cars, manned and guarded by 350 non-union strikebreakers, were operated in San Francisco Monday. President Calhoun of the United Railways made the following statement: "I shall not take back any striking motorman or conductor, unless he first surrenders his union card, and signs a contract to remain a non-union man so long as he remains in the company's employment. If any non-union men are attacked and police protection is not afforded, I shall exercise a constitutional right and arm the I shall not stand by and see my crews beaten up." UNION PACIFIC "WATER" TAKEN. Full Amount of Bond Issue of $75,000,000 is Subscribed. It was announced by Kuhn, Loeb & Co. at New York Monday that the full amount of the issue of $75,000,000 of bonds proposed to be made by the Union Pacific railway company has been subscribed by the members of a syndicate formed for the purpose of underwriting the issue. The syndicate will receive such portion as is not taken by the stockholders. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MAY 18. 1907. BIGGER ATLANTA Planned By Her Citizens at an Enthusiastic Meeting. By a unanimous vote the Atlanta chamber of commerce at a special meeting Tuesday night endorsed the greater Atlanta movement by the adoption of the following resolution: "Resolved, That we, the members of the chamber of commerce, and friends here assembled, heartily endorse the proposed extension of the city limits of Atlanta and pledge our individual support." Speeches endorsing the movement were made by Postmaster Blodgett, L. Z. Rosser, J. K. Orr, Sam W. Small, Frank P. Rice, Judge George Hillyer, Capt. W. G. Raoul, Joel Hurt, J. L. Logan and Mayor W. R. Joyner, in the order named, besides representatives from the Columbus and Des Moines delegations in the city attending the trainmen convention. Mayor Joyner thought it time to get rid of one shoe string district, while President R. P. Rice of the water board, was willing for his vacant land to be embraced in the new limits. Captain Raoul favored taking in the whole of Fulton county, if necessary, and Joel Hurt suggested that the city should take in what is known as the seven branches, and that these should be improved and beautified and converted into parks. Ex-President J. K. Orr, of the chamber of commerce, thought the occasion ripe when the charter revision, considered by the famous committee of "forty-nine" should be revived, and Sec. J. L. Logan of the Associated Charities thought the present charter a "patch-work quilt without design." The visiting speakers were Secretary J. Y. Bassett of the Columbus board of trade, and ex-Congressman Butler, Vice President Allen of the Commercial Club; Secretary of State Dobson and Lucius Edgar Wilson, secretary of the Greater Des Moines Club. Each of these speakers expressed surprise at the magnificent city they found and ex-Congressman Butler advised that they make it a symmetrical city in its limits, and Joel Hurt vouchsafted the information that the limits were originally a circle, and he thought the time propitious when it should be circular again. POLICEMAN GOT TOO GAY. First Man Fired Under Atlanta's New Civil Service Rules. On the charge of paying attention to a young lady, Policeman George Pruitt, who is a man of family, was dismissed from the Atlanta police force in a very sensational manner. Pruitt was present at a meeting of of the police board and when called to the front said he handed in his resignation. "Are you guilty of the charges?" asked Captain English, a member of the board. "Well, yes," replied Pruitt. "I have met the young lady several times." "And you are a man with a wife and children?" asked Captain English. "I am," was the reply. "Mr. Chairman," said Captain English, in a rising tone of voice, "I move that this man be dismissed from the force without any trial." The motion was seconded and Pruitt was fired bodily. He left the room and as he was walking out Captain English remarked: "We don't want any such people connected with this department and I make the further motion that he be damissed in disgrace and that this be so recorded on our minutes." The motion was adopted. HIS MAYBELLE SOOTHED HIM. Angry Corey Threatened to Totally Annihilate Camera Men. In an angry scene at the steamship pler in Hoboken, N. J., Tuesday morning before he salied with his bride, William Ellis. Corey raised his big stick and threatened to attack camera men who essayed to take snapshots of him and his bride, Mabelle Gilman Corey. Mrs. Corey, with soothing words, twice prevented her husband from carrying out his threats of violence. UNCLE SAM WILL·BALK At Proposed Scheme for Joint Protectorate, With Mexico Over Little Central American Republics. The proposition ascribed to President Diaz that the United States and Mexico should establish a joint protectorate over a union of Central American states has caused great commotion among the Latin-American diplomatic representatives at Washington. Senor Calvo, the Costa Rican minister, Doctor Mejia, the Salvadoran minister, and Senor Tolub Herrate, the Guatemalan minister, called in a body at the state department Tuesday to discuss the subject with the officials. They had no news or instructions from their own government as to the attitude they should assume, but they were especially desirous of learning what advices the state department had on the subject. There was nothing of an official character to enlighten them and it did not develop that the American government had so far had any exchanges with the government of Mexico beyond those involved in the common effort to bring about a termination of the hostilities that had existed between Honduras and Salvador and Nicaragua. An incident to the conclusion of the treaty of Amalpa was that the agreement for continuance of peace in Central America states named that a conference should be held later on in Nicaragua to insure the continuance of peace in Central America. Details of the agreement have not yet reached the state department, but it is surmised that there is no obstacle to the adhesion of Guatemala and Costa Rica to the formal agreement which may be reached by the projected conference. Thus, in effect, would be formed what would amount to a confederacy of the Central American states, though each of the elements might preserve its individuality and its own government. It is said an American protectorate over such a loose confederation, singly or in combination with Mexico, is entirely out of the question, the executive branch of the government being without authority to enter upon such an agreement even if it is so desired, but there does not seem to be any reason to suppose the state department is inclined to change its policy in the matter of constantly endeavoring by moral suasion to conserve the peace in Central America. COURT A FULL INVESTIGATION. New York Exchange Plans to Outwit Theodore Price. Some members of the New York cotton exchange Tuesday discussed a plan to call a meeting of the exchange and raise the question that it was to the best interests of the exchange that in the suit of Theodore H. Price against the exchange, and more particularly its classification committee, no technical objections should be interposed which might prevent a full, thorough and searching investigation. SOUTH CAROLINA DIOCESE Meets in One Hundred and Seventy- First Annual Council. The 171st annual council of the South Carolina diocese of the Episcopal church convened in Columbia on Tuesday, Bishop Ellison Capers presiding. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. John Kershaw of Charleston. One of the most important matters before the council is the election of a bishop coadjutor. FORTUNES MADE IN WHEAT. Many Wise Ones Benefited by Unloading at High Prices. Many men took small fortunes from the Chicago board of trade Tuesday morning by quietly unloading wheat at the high prices made possible by Monday's extraordinary bull movement. December wheat touched a dollar for a single sale at the opening, but promptly receded from this conspicuous position. DIFFERENCES NOW ADJUSTED. Mexico and Guatemala Arrive at Pacific Understanding. The Mexican ambassador, Mr. Creel, at Washington, authorizes the Associated Press to say that the trouble between Mexico and Guatemala has been definitely and satisfactorily adjusted. Mr. Creel received advices from his home government to that effect. As to the basis of the agreement, the ambassador declined to talk. "You may state, however," he said, "that the trouble is now over," and that a satisfactory agreement has been reached." THIRTY-ONE DEAD As Result of Frightful Wreck on Southern Pacific. WAS A SHRINER SPECIAL A special from Barbara, Cal., says: While hurrying northward over the coast line of the Southern Pacific railroad Saturday afternoon, homeward bound, after a week of fraternizing, and fliestas in Los Angeles, 145 Shriners, of Ismalla Temple, of Buffalo, and Rajah Temple, of Reading, Pa., with their families and friends, were hurled into the midst of death, when their special train, running fifty miles an hour, struck a defective switch at Honda, a lonely station on the sand wastes of the Pacific beach, derailing the train, smashing the coaches into flinders, killing thirty-one almost instantly and injuring more than a score of others. the bodies of twenty-five lay in the morgues at Santa Barbara Sunday afternoon, and ten more are at San Luis Obispo. The injured, many of whom are terribly hurt and will probably die, are in two sanitariums at San Luis Obique. The wreck occurred at 2:10 o'clock, one hour and forty-five minutes after the conclave visitors forming a merry party, had spent all the morning sight-seeing in Santa Barbara. The statement that the train was making a terrific speed when it covered the sixty-one miles of curves and crooked track between Santa Barbara and Honda in exactly 100 minutes. There was no warning of the impending calamity. The special plunged down the defective switch, and in an instant the big locomotive, baggage car, dinner and Pullman, coupled with it, were hurled together in a huge heap of wreckage. The engine shot forward on the broken track, tearing up the rails and ties and twisting the huge iron spans into fish hooks. The baggage car half buried itself in the sand on the right side of the locomotive. It was smashed almost to kindling wood. The dining car, in which were thirty-two persons, eating their noonday meal, leaped into the air and was thrown directly on top of the demolished locomotive. Nearly every person in this coach was instantly killed. Scores were scalded by steam escaping from disconnected pipes in the kitchen on the diner. The terror and turmoil of the scene was indescribable. Many of those who escaped death by the first impact were crushed by the rear coaches hurled upon the wreckage. Others, pinioned in the debris, were roasted alive. The wreckage caught fire from the coals of the engine, but was extinguished in a few minutes by the passengers who escaped injury. Engineer frank Champlaine was pitched with his cab 25 feet beyond the engine, and got up and ran three-quarters of a mile, seeking help before he discovered that his arm was broken, and that he was severely scalded. A man standing behind his wife in the baggage car was hurled through a huge rent in the car and alighted in soft and yielding sand almost uninjured. The woman was forced through the floors, and wreckers had to lift tons of baggage to get her body out. But the unfortunate who occupied every seat in the dining car were caught in a veritable death trap. Only two of the nine men of the diner crew are numbered among the dead. The remainder, though cooped up in the narrow kitchen and pantry, sustained bad cuts and bruises. Rajah Temple, of Reading, Pa., occupied the last car on the train, and were the last ones to go forward to the diner. The car was filled almost entirely with Reading people when the wreck occurred. An instant after the smash those who were not rendered insensible or otherwise incapacitated by the terrible impact, jumped from the train to render aid, but the gruesome scene before them unfitted many for the work they had to do long hours before relief arrived. The president has appointed Edward B. Moore of Michigan to be commissioner of patents, to succeed Frederick I. Allen, resigned. Mr. Moore has been assistant commissioner for several years. SPANISH HEIR IS BORN. A Madrid special says: The queen of Spain Friday morning gave birth to a son and heir to the Spanish throne. This is the first time in many generations that the first child of a king and queen of Spain has been born a male. The announcement from the imperial palace that Queen Victoria had presented her subjects with an heir to the kingdom was halted with great enthusiasm by the thousands who gathered about the palace after the formal announcement had been made. As soon as the sex of the child was known, the waiting populace were notified by a salute of 21 guns fired from the palace grounds. Next to the enthronement of a king the birth of a son and beir to the royal parents is the most important ceremony at the Spanish court. Following the custom of centuries, the baby is placed on a huge gold plate immediately after birth and presented to its father. The king himself accompanied by Queen Victoria's Spanish and English physicians on either side, walks down a long line of functionaries, all of whom bow profoundly. The king walks to where the prime minister is standing. After determining the sex of the child he announces: "It is a prince. God bless the prince." This is the signal for prolonged applause. Then the king still carrying the prince, walks through a long line of ambassadors and exhibits the baby to each of them in turn. The next step in the unusual ceremony is the taking of the infant to the notary of the palace. He has a book in which is recorded the sex of the child, the date, hour and place of birth. The book relates the ancestry of the child for the last 500 years. This task accomplished, the king hands his son over to the mistress of the robes. Then the little one is taken to its magnificent layette and presented to its mother. As soon as she is able the queen proceeds to the church of the Atocha, where she gives thanks for the birth of her child. Then follows the baptism, which is accomplished with as much pomp and ceremony, as the birth of the child. More than one hundred Spanish women have been working for months on the baby's wardrobe. The christening and presentation robes of the new heir will be the same as those worn by King Alfonso. The advent of a royal babe at the court of Spain is always regarded as a matter of great import. At a time when practically only one life stands between the continued peace and prosperity of the country and the unleashing of the dogs of war at the blinding of Carlists, socialists or revolutionists, it is fraught with especial significance. BIXBY QUITS GOOD JOB. Resigns as Commissioner of the Five Civilized Indian Tribes. "Tams" Bixby, who has for many years been the commissioner to the five civilized tribes of Indians in Indian-Territory, at a salary of $5,000, has sent his resignation to Secretary Garfield to take effect June 30. An attorney for some of the Indians, several months ago, filed charges against Bixby. These were investigated, and Bixby exonerated. TWELVE MONTHS FOR HUMMEL. New York Lawyer Must Go to Jail for Conspiracy. One year in state prison and to pay a fine of $500 was the sentence imposed at New York Friday on Abraham H. Hummel, the lawyer who was convicted of conspiracy in the famous Dodge-Morse divorce case. Hummel was convicted in the New York state supreme court several months ago, but appealed. The decision was affirmed by the higher court. MIDDIES REBUKE OFFICER And Are, in Return for Insult, Virtually Made Prisoners! The whole membership of the First battalion of the brigade of midshipmen at Annapolis has been restricted for an indefinite period to the confines of the institution, as a result of its members having "given the silence" to Lieutenant Commander McVay, Jr., one of the discipline officers. The members had taken exception to McVay's mode of investigating their actions and determined to administer this form of rebuke to him. Largest Sick and Death Be LB WILLIAMS, President, . . P.

Bel C, Johnson.- Every farmer wants to know to a cent the value of what he buys and sells, and should not leave this to be figured by the party with whom he is dealing. As labor saving machinery has been invented to save time and physical strength, so there aro devices to enable the mind to reach quickly and accurately results usually arrived at-with much thought and tedious calculation. Time is worth much, but accuracy is still more important. Many books have been prepared to make the task of calculating easy, its results sure, but fever one fitted to all men, in all kinds of busf- mess. at all times, so completely as “ROPP’S NEW COMMERCIAL CALCULATOR.” This reliable assistant to the farmer and others has been in the market for many years, and nearly a million and 2 half copies have been sold. The last edition (160 pages) is from beginning to end filled with tables, short cuts, and up-to-date methods of calculating. making it the most com- plete, useful and comprehensive work of the kind ever published. It will make every ane in- dependent, ‘sure and self-reliant in all practical” calculations connected with farming and other lines of business. It will prevent mistakes, re- lieve the mind, save time, labor and loss. 1t is a pocket odition with pocket-for papers and a loose silicate slate from which lead pencil marks are easily erased, and is an invaluable assistant for every former or business man.

Brooklyn, N, ¥.—Preaching at the Igviag Square Presbyterian Church oa the theme “The Religious Life," the pastor, the Rev. Ira Wemmell Henderson, took as his text Deut. 8:3, “Man doth notlive by bread only. but by everything that proceedcth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live."" He said: @ one thing most necessary in the life of the individual and of so. giety fs religion. A man may exist in the pessession of all the temporal and material alds to comfort and to the satisfaction of the natural man, but he never begins really to live until he ts conscious of the divine personality and recognizes the valid- ity of the divine control. A man may exist without a thoroughgoing sense of the reality and the control of “the Divinity, that shapes our ends,” but he only is alive when he gains a con- sciousness of God and of his account- ability and infinite indebtedness to Him. ‘ In our day too many men are drift- ing from tite religious life, too many are endeavoring to live ‘without a controlling sense of the reality of God, too many are endeavoring to Uve as though God were non-exist- ‘ant and as though Ho were entitled to no authority over their Ilves. Many gcod men. confusing ecclesiasticism with religion, and uncomprehending of the vast difference that there often ‘is, though to be suve there should not be, between church membership and the Christian life, have turned and are turning, altogether too commonly for the peace of mind of the church of the living God, away from organ- ized religious systems primarily and from any.sort of religious observ- ‘ance at ail. Gazing upon the hope- less insincerity of many Christians and the stupid indifference of many churches to the needs of society and the demands of the times, as con- trasted with the beauty and the uni- yersal interest of the God-man and His Gospel, upon whose character and truth the ‘Church is founded, men have misjudged Christianity by its misrepresenting:+ frultage, ‘and, in numbers that annoy us, have turned from religion entirely.” Contemplat- ing the sins of individuals in the church, they have permitted their eyes to be withholden from the dis- cernment of the truth that the per- sonality and the pronunciamentoes of ‘Jesus Christ as the oracle of God are the jeaven that most surely could transform their own lives and effect a transformation in the*soclal order ‘of which they aro a part. Many bad men, with the determination not to know or to serve God under any con- ditions, utterly are neglectful of the claims of the religious life upon their higher natures. They turn from religion because thes aie willfully desirous to be the followers of the devil rather than the servants of ‘Goa. | Many men have turned from or- ganized religion because of intel- Jecual difficulties. Some of these have gone out of the church to fol- Jow the bent of their peculiar and persorfal religious conceptions and convictions; some have’ turned to philosophy ‘and have deified man as Sufficient unto himself; still .others have to their entire satisfaction climizated God from the scheme of things In’ spite of the attitude of a host of men, however, a true religious life Is as necessary to the welfare of human- ity as are fresh air and pure food and the creature comforts that we desire, need and strive so persistent- ly to secure. No man fs well round- ed; no man has realized the possibili- ties of manhood; no man is com- plete; no man fs really alive until he'fs alive unto God. And no man has sounded the limits of the capaci- ties of his own being until he has en- joyed a knowledge of the highest rev~ elation of the character of God that is ia the world to-day. " A true religious life ought to ap- peal to every man first, because it is reasonable; secondly, because it is spiritually real; thirdly, because.it is ethically influential. The true religious life is reason- able. It does no damage to our good sense, and ft commends itself to our judsment. It does not shock our ideas of the fitness of things. It sat- isfies our intellects. ‘Man, in the wis- dom of God, is an Intelligent being: he possesses mental qualities that aré fundamental in his make-up. Men must be convinced of the reasonable- ness of things before they can have any Jasting hold upon them. That which is intellectually unsatisfying or that will not stand the tests ap- plied by the minds of men, they re- Ject. Man does, not demand that he shall be able to exhaust every subject which comes under the provinee of his intellect, but he does demanu that, whether ‘or no he is able to. explain all the things in which, as a rational being, he holds an interest, he shall at Jeast be able to discern ‘iu them the evidences of reasonableness. Religion appeals to the mind of man. Not because he is able to sound all the depths of relig- jous philosophy or of religious truth or to explain all the manifold won- ders of religious experience, but be- eause there fs in religion that which dz intellectually xeasonabie aca ‘glorious reallifes of the s) piritual life as it is that the tongue has not yet told the fullness of the glories of that richer life that Is yet to be. But though the tongue may be unable to explain it all or to reveal in finite language the infinite experiences of the spiritual life it is none the less real. The spiritual religious life is the result of experience. It is ex- Perience. It is just as exact and Sefentific in its way and just as ex- perimental, mystical and abstract though it be, as any other scientific discipline. It cannot, of course, be demonstrated by the exepriences of the physicist alone, or by the ter- minology of the geologist alone, or by the ‘rules of the algebraic formu- lae. But ft has fts own laws. Its own characteristics may be sefentific- ally tabulated. Its experiences may be ¢lassified. Its reality may be in- ‘vestigated and proven by any open- minded. open-hearted man who Will place himself within the realm of its ‘manifestations and permit bimself to be moved upon by Its influences. It Is spiritually real. Then, too, the trué religious Ifo such as has been revealed unto us in Jesus Christ is ethically influen- tial, It takes hold of the conduct of the man, and whereas he was bé fore satisfied with Iax and easy reg- ulations for the ordering of his per- sonal and social life, it leads him past all that 1s superficial and insufficient and less than wholly righteous, step by step into such & recognition of the claims of God and of humanity upon his life that he 1s soon satisfied with nothing but tite best in manners and morals, and is continually test- ing himself by an increasing measure to fin whether or no he is worthy of the approval of Almishty God, his King. ‘The real religious life that was practiéed by our Lord and Sav- jous Jesus Christ is a Uté that is militant in the life of the man seven days a week. It is no week-end religion. It 1s a farce from the first stroke of the midnight chime on Saturday night to the precise moment when another weex having gone ring- ing down the grooves of the past the hells shalt boom again another mid- night note. It declares to men the reality of the divine authority and tife insistency of human sccountabil- ity to Him. It leads the soul into 2 larger recognition of the claims of personality and inspires humanity to square Itself with the claims of so-. ciety upon the individual life. ‘The true religious Ife In Jesus is as vital in national affairs as it is in individual. We do not need in our times more churches or a Jarger or- ganization, What we necd most is that the present organization and the present churches shall make the re- ligion of the Lord Jesus Christ to be felt and realized as a vital force in all departments of our national life. The true relfgious life {s the med, ium whereby comfort, joy, hope and courage are mediated in divine fash- ion to the human soul. In no other life is comfort so ‘satisfyingly given. In no other life Is the joy that hu- manity so largely needs so truly. ministered. Here is our highest hope. Here we drink deep of courage’ and are most endued for conflict against principalities and powers and pan- plied effectually for the conquering of sin. The greatest mistake in the world s for a man to reject the privileges, he prerogatives, the appeals of the religious life. For the soul without Sod is not alive. Only in the con- sciousness of His reality and in will- ng subjection of self to Him do we ive. The live nian is the one who ives within God through the grace id love revealed and mediated in sur Lord Jesus Christ. Every Road Leads to Jesus. A young man just starting upon his work in the ministry was one day ‘talking to an aged minister in Lon- don, who had spent a lifetime in the service. The young man said, “You have a great deal of experience; you know smany things that I ought to learn, Can't you give me advice to carry with me in my new duties?” “Yes, I can,” was the response, “I will give you 2 piece of advice. You ‘know that in every town in England, no matter how small, in every ham- let, though it be hidden in the folds of the mountains or wrapped round by the far-off sea, in every clump of farmhouses, You can find a road which, if you will follow it, will take you to London. Just so every text you shall choose to preach, from the Bible will have a road that leads to Jesus, Be sure you find that road and follow it; be careful not to miss it once. This is my advice to you.”” Tis Sak Winnes’s Wauineent. Be filled with the Spirit. (Eph. 5: 15.) This is the call to every Chiis- tian to be filled with the Spirit. That is what is needed to-day. Only those who are filled with the Spirit can ‘be soul winners. To be filled is the privilege of all. Christians are known by their fruits, “With- out Me ye can do nothing” (Jno. 15: 5). It is as impossible to live ‘the Christian life without the Holy Spir- ft as to live natural life without afr. There must be an emptying of all else before there can be 2 real filling. Holiness must prevail. The little sins if tolerated will hinder the Spir- ft from having full sway. This is not only a privilege for every Chris- tian, but a duty; for it is a com- mand: ‘Be filled .with the Spirit” —C. B. Styers. . . ‘Drawing Men. ‘The holiness of Chrjst did not awe men away from Him, nor repel them. It {uspired them with hope It was not that vulgar, unapproachable sanc- tity which makes men awkward in its presence, and stands aloof. Its pe- cullar characteristic was that it, made men enamored of goodness. It “drew all men unto Him.” This Is the dif- ference between greatness that is first rate and greatness which ‘is sec- ond rate — between heavenly and earthly goodness. The second rate and earthly kind draws admiration ‘on itself. You say, “How great an act—bow good a man!” The first ‘rato and the heavenly imparts itself '—inspires a spirit. Story of God's Love.

The joints and coupling points are made of pressed leather and rubber, and a ‘special form of hydraulic joint 1s em- ployed. On the top of the armor fs fixed the helmet, which is the princi- pal feature of the apparatus. The air is not brought to the diver from the outside, as usual, but the air he breathes is sent by a tube Into a spe- celal regenerating chamber containing certain chemical products which re- new the supply of oxygen, and the air is then sent to the Interfor of the hel- met by another tube.

Mounting and descending are effected by a drum and cable worked by an electric motor. At the same time the cable serves to carry the current which is needed for the respiratory apparatus. The diver communicates with the surface by a telephone, and a number of wires run from the ar- mor up to a set of colored lamps, showing how the different parts are working.

Our indefatigable reporter says that a certain Corean sent his steward to: a certam place “and uttered them to counterfelt the paper money on a preedy mind.” ——-THE—— FUTILITY OF PHILANTHROPY. By Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes. I sometimes think that it would be a good thing if this whole philan- thropic system could be swept out ct existenée, because it blinds people to the real issues. It is not true philan- thropy., Philanthropy is love of man, and it fs not love of man to take from him what is his, and then, when he is lying robbed and wounded upon the Jericho road, to put him on a beast and take him to a soup kitchen. There is little use in trying to relieve poverty while we are creating it. Just so long as we go,on leaving men and women on the Jericho road we will have these problems. It is a curious psychological fact that people should want to relieve distress while they are careless about what they do to create It. Not loog ago Mr. Stokes refused to become trustee for a vast estate, He told the two men who tried to persuade him to accept the trust that If he did he would feel bound to see that those who created that wealth re- ceived it again. He didn’t think that -the dividends mattered.” Now, these two men are very philanthropic. They believe that they are so, and others believe it of them. But they were very much surprised and* hurt at this attitude. They told Mr. Stokes that it was not at all his busi- ness how the dividends were pro- duced. His only concern was to see that thoso who intrusted him with the estate received them, and finally they said, as if concluding the whole matter: “Our duty is to God and not to the workers.” This attitude Is very common among the sustainers of great philan- thropies and churches. They do not 3ee that taking dividends is taking from the worker. They live in lux- ury, denying themselves nothing,‘and what they have to spare they give in philanthropy. They do not gee that they are working at the wrong end, that poverty can be cured only by doing justice and seeing that those who create wealth get it and that alt “help to create it, « | Fhe Care of the public health Is the subject in which you are particularly | interested, and sickness is one of the | greatest of our problems under the present social syste. Most of our treatment of it is merely om the sur- face. Only a few forces are trying to remove the cause. There {s a section of our city known as the lung block. Many efforts have been made to have it'torn down and replaced by a park, but nothing can be done because the | proposition touches vested interests. Even the priest of a nearby church objects because it would remove his flock. To be sure, death removes them anyway, but he docsn't seem to think of that. | Many of our workshops are so bad | that If people don’t get tuberculosis in them they, get something else. It is inevitable. Recently, in Philadel- phia, I met in a settlement which he himself sustained a wealthy mill owner. He employed 1200 girls, and lhe was much concerned over'the way they dropped off and died. It was terrible to see, but he didn't know how to help it, He sald they came to ‘him well and rosy, but in six months or a year they grew pale and thin, and after dropping‘ out and returning /to work a few times they died of tuberculosis. I expressed surprise ‘that he couldn't find a way to pre- yent this, but ue explained that he couldn't ventilate the weaving rooms, because the dust from-the colored fabrics blew onto the white ones and marred their purity, I thought that human beings were more tmportant ‘than cloth, and if his heart hadn’t been hardened by business he would Thave thought so, too; but it didn’t | seem to me necessary even to sacrifice the cloth. He might have woven tne different colors in different rooms. “That would have necessitated more supervision and more expense, and perhaps wouldn't have left him any money for philanthropy. This~man | really wanted to be philanthropic, but couldn't see that he was responsible for the killing of hundreds of girts. ) And yet I do not blame him or any individual. I blame the competitive 8¥stem back of it all. ‘ ‘ Se . The primitive inhabitants of Eu- rope were ail tenors; their descend- ants of the present time are bar!- tones, and: future generations wil! have semi-bass voices. The voice has a tendency to deepen with age. The tenor of twenty becomes the barifono of twenty-eight and the bass of thirty-six. The Inferior races have higher pitched voices than the more cultured. The negro, has a higher voice than the whife man. Among white racés the fair complex- foned ‘maz has a higher voice than his darker skinned brother. The for- mer {s usually a baritone or a tenor, ‘the latter a contralto or bass. It 4s asserted that tenors are usually of slender build, whéreas basses are stout, but there are too many excep- tions to such a Tule for it to be re- liable.

A few years ago most anything “went” for milk or cream or butter so long as it came originally from a cow, Now thiags are changed, The public realizes, the+dairyman realizes and the farmer realizes that there is just as much difference. be- tween milk from sweet utensils and milk from “stale” utensils as there 4s between milk, and chalk and water. The problem of keeping sweet all the utensils used in connection with milk and cream selling, and butter making, has been a serlous one with the farmer. He has come to realize fully that the slightest taint or hint of staleness left in &gan, tin or churn may ruin a whole output; that the taint which ts left fs in the form of’ bacteria wich grow and multiply'in milk or butter, producing disastrous results, ‘The farmer has learned that hot water won't rinso away the greasy residue in dairy utensils. . He has learned that soap leaves 2 residue of its own which ts, if any- thing, worse than the milk or cream residue, and it {s little wonder that there has been a constant clamor for a dairy cleanser and sweetener that will meet modern requirements. A tew of the largest creamery es- tablishments have caljed experts into consultation on this pfoblem and have with this scientific aid hit upon a product of nature which exactly fills the bill—borax. - Scientists have Jong known borax as a cleanser, a sweetener and an antiseptic destroyer of bacterfa and germ growths, Destroys all that is harmful and promotes and preserves freshness, sweetness and purity, re- lieving the dairyman and dairy house- wife of drudgery and of needless work and worry. Its cheapness and value should give it first place in the necessities of every dairy. © The cow's udder is Kept in a clean, healthy and smooth condition by washing it with borax and water, a tablespoonful of borax té two quarts of water. a _ This prevents roughness and sore- ness or cracked teat#, which make milking time a dread {to the cow and a worry to the milker} The modern cleanser of all_ dairy utensils consists of—Sne tablespoon- ful of borax tozevery; quart of water needed.

An interesting demonstration was given at a recent exhibition of physi- cal instruments in London of the fact that an intimate connection ex- ists between the magnitude of the details visible in a microscope and. the color of the light used for {llum- inating the object.

The joint’s perfection will perhaps amazo you. “The brim, up to this point, is flat. Now its curling commences. ‘This is where my queer forefinger comes in, The shaping of a hat brim fs purely, a matter of hand and eye and taste.

Too often our prejudices rule our passions for iN, and we forget that one of the Ies- sons that Masonry teaches is to think better of the world in which we live, and especially of our brethren, and so to value the one as to think It worth while to try and make it no- bler and better, and the other as, to never be willing to have~the bonds ‘of friendship Vroken, One good friend or one true tMfasonic brother is not to ‘be weighed against the jewels of earth, If there comes a coolness or unkindness between you and a broth- er do not revile him behind his back, but come face to face and have an explanation.
