The Packard shooting-A Sensation
Promised.
NEW YORK, Feb. 16.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.
The Heralds New Orleans special says
dozen pistols were pointed at the assassin
after he fired at Packard, and the latter
planted himself across his body and pro-
tected Weldon. Huttle, the one-armed
man who was arrested, says Weldon met
him in saloon was perfect stranger.
Weldon asked If he knew Packard, and
wanted him to go to the state house after
drinking together. lie was Ignorant of
Weldon's intentions. Philip Stern, a one
legged peddler who was arrested, said he
met Weldon in the saloon. Weldon asked
if he had a six-sbooter. While Stern was
wondering why Weldon should ask
him to drink, the latter said "Do you
know Packard ?" Stern said he had not
seen him. Weldon said: swat while,
and I'll fix him. am going to kill him.
You'll see." Stern laughed, when Weldon
called to the one armed man and asked him
to take a drink. The one-armed man,
Huttle, consented. Weldon asked him ii
he knew Packard, and he said yes. After
taking drink the latter and Weldon went
to the state house, followed by Stern.
Stern was released. Hottie was held.
Dispatches from New Orlean to Wash
ington delare that the shooting was the
result of conspiracy. Astonishing de-
velopment, are promised. by Weldon.
MAKING DEMOCRATIC CAPITAL.
The Suns Washington special says ap-
pearancee indicate that the Packard sensa-
ton was trick to influence the decision
in the Louisiana case. While Judge Camp
bell was speaking, telegram concerning
the affair was banded to members of the
commission. A dispatch from Governor
Nichols says Weldon is a relative of
Packard. No one is permitted to see
Packard, and thus be convinced of his in
juries. The president, when pressed by
Chandler and Cameron and others to re-
cognize Packard at once. sent request to
Col Burke to call upon him and present
the other side of the case. That gentle
man visited the White house, and submitted
contradictory kilograms received from
Nichols.

How TO Keen Cool.

Few subjects are so entirely misun-
derstood as that of keeping comfortable
in hot weather. The majority of peo-
pie discard their flannels when the al
manac says Summer, or at best when
hot weather fairly sets mas if there
was any heat in flannel. There is no
excuse for this ignorance upon a sub
ject of such vast Importance, and yet
few people give it n second thought.
Every one knows that the temperature
of the human body in health is about
1909. This does moi mean July and
January alone, but always, Winter,
Spring, Summer and Fall. Very good,
now let us understand distinctly the
fact that there is no warmth in clothing
of any kind; it acts simply as n nom
conductor of both heat and cold. Let
us take avery hot day when the Their
mometer indicates 100o IN the shade;
what effect has the flannelp 1t absorbs
the perspiration instead of letting it
soak into the outer clothing, which
underclothing a and should be.
Therefore n proper regard for cleanli-
ness should induce us to retain our
flannels.
Then, again, as to the question of
heat and cold. When we know that
the body is at 1902 on the inside of the
flannel, and the air at 1902 on the out
side, what has our flannel barricade to
keep out or to keep in? Nothing.
Therefore it should be evident to the
duliest intellect that the only effect
they have during the heat Of the day is
favorable to comfort, but wait until
the sun goes down and the damp of
evening approaches. A cool breeze
springs up. Now what effect have the
flannelsP For the time has come when
they do perform a very important and
l~ife-saving service. A, who doesn't
wea underclothing, begins to shiver
Il little-the cold finger of death just
giving him a warning touch-and he
gets up after awhile, remarking that it
is getting rather too cool now, and goes
into the house, while b., who has
worn his flannel through the day, COM
planning less of the heat, now experien-
ces a delightful sense of comfort
doesn't feel any chill, and thus avoids
the cold that very likely throws A. into
a fever, from which, if he escapes with
his life, let us hope he will be wise
enough to wear wooden underclothes
all the year round in future. This is
not written in the interest of dealers in
mourning apparel, undertakers or the
medical profession, whose profits are
chiefly derived from people who don't
wear flannel in hot weather.

(To BE ooNCLUDED.) J
FoR THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
AFTER THE REVIVAL.

So many have been brought into the
Church thank God for that If truly born
again, they will have new life. But how
much has been done for those who already
were protesting Christians? Will they here
after live a higher Christian life? If SO,
then, no less thanks to God flr that If
not, then the revival will bear but half its
legitimate fruit.
The same motives urge the Christian to q
higher life, that call for the seeking Of new
life. We turn upon ourselves with the very
same appeals that but lately we addressed to
our unconverted friends.
l. 1t is amazing to every thoughtful man
still more to every earnest Christian
perhaps most of all to the angels and the re-
deemed who look down upon the inhabitants
of this earth-that any mortal and response
BILE being should be Indifferent to eternal
life. Even more amazing would it seem to
be, that any Christian, who by the Holy
Spirit has once been made to feel the power
of the life to come, should rest content short
of assurauce-sbould hope for an entrance
into the Kingdom of God, and should strive
for an abundant entrance.
2, How often, during revival, is the
question asked, "What must do that may
have eternal Ife?" And there is but one
answer: "Come to Christ" And if we put
the question to ourselves, How shall live
higher life?" the answer is still the same
"Come to Christ;" for He saye, 81 am come
that they might have life and that they
might have it more abundantly." The rea-
son Why the impeuitent are not saved is that
they are unwilling to be saved. The reason
why Christians lead so low life, to their
own loss, and to the diSCredit of their reli.
gion, is that they are unwilling to live q
higher.
3. Pfocrastination is the cause of the loss
of the souls of many. They were willing to
be saved, but not just yet-not just now
So there are few believers who do not pur.
pose to be ct some time, better Christians
than they are; but not just now.
4. For the impenitent and for the low
living Christian alike, it will be found, tha
the real cause why they are not something
different from what they are is, that the ne
cesssry change implies that something mus
be done which they are unwilling to do, Oh
something must be given up which they ar
unwilling to surrender. They are weak
they do not refuse; but they hesitate. Lik

The American Board and its Success.

The Boston Journal gives the following
short sketch Of this Board. An interesting
fact in regard to the American Board of
Commissioners for Foreign Missions is that
while it had its origin among, Congregation
alists, and is considered the missionary agen-
cy of the Congregational churches, its policy
has never been marked by asectarian spirit.
The aim from the first has been to propagate
among the heather, and among people hold
ing to the Christian religion in scarcely more
than name, the pure evangelical christianity
of the New Testament. In this work it has
accepted the services of such laborers as we're
