Christianity Among the Jews

Both in England and in Scotland great in
terest IS manifested in the work of PROMOTING
Christianity among the Jews. The London
Society for this object, at its late anniversary
reported an income of 1926, 900 with an expen-
diture nearly as large. The report saws:
The socety's chaplain. the Rev 7 r Rar-
raclough states that the attendance at the
chapel services during the eleven months of his
ministry had steadily increased. The same re.
mark applied to the Bible classes and other
meetings. The three Bible classes had been at
tended with more or less regularity by about
sixty members. and the average attendance at
the Saturday evening prayer meeting had been
about thirty five. On the last night of the ola
year the room was we'll filed. During the wear

on Trinity Sunday, June 10Th, at st. Johns
church, Bethnal green, thirty four members of
the congregation were presented for the sacred
rite; amongst that number were twenty Chris
tlan Isrdelites. In the Hebrew Girls School
hTe had been admitted and two had left. In
the Boys School eight had been admitted and
seven had left. Of these four had completed
their term, and another had emigrated with his
father to Australia. The chaplain and teachers
had much encouragement in believing that

Christian principles, and that the instruction

and others There had been verv fair at

the chapel services, especially at the Hebrew
services on Sunday afternoons. During the
year Mr.. Segall one of the students at the Mis-
sionary College, had been appointed to labor
among the Jews at Constantinople. 1t was
gratifying to the members of the college past
and present, that the Archbishop of Canterbury
had conferred the degree of doctor of DIVINITY
on the Rev. H. A. Stern, one of the college lee
turers, In acknowledgment of his labors and suf.
ferings in the cause of Christianity.

The statement is made that Conore-
gatlonalism in New England is rapidly disi3te-
grating, and that in little while there will he
nothing OF 1T left but shadow of its former self
Withln few years, the remark is, that church
es have changed so as to show preference for men
OF loose theological views, and that councils do
not hesitate to install ministers as pastors wbo
deny the inspiration of the Scriptures the etar,
nal punishment of the wicked, and other doctrines
equally fundamental. We are 10th to believe
statement that is so unpleasant. Is it true?

constantly. There are now three vacancies in
the Faculty: The latest announcement is that

tact that he does not subscribe fully to the An

colleagues and the Trustees are satisfied with
his beliefs as he has placed them in writing and
they claim that DR.. Thayers doctrine is not in.

Baptist Bibles-On Monday last Nav
18th, at the fifty eighth annivers arv celebration
OF the American Baptist Publication Society
Held In this city, the following resolution was
adPted " Resolved That the Boards of the
American Baptist Publication Society the
American Baptist Missionary Union. the Amer.
can and Foreign Bible Society, the Southern
Baptist Convention, and the three Baptrst Con
yentlons of the Dominion of Canada. are hereby
requested to appoint committees of conference
on the best method Of uniting Baptist work in
America. This joint commission shall have
power to call general Bible Convention at
such time and place and in such manner as they
may deem wisest, the object Of said Convention
being to submit plan for the readustment of
our Bible work covering both translation and
circulation, and to designate the methods by
which it can be efficiently done and to the salts
faction Of our denomination as a whole" This
seems to mean that the present version Of the
Scriptures is not good enough for the Baptists.
Baptist Mission work.-The fifteenth

Mr.. Ellison came TO Delaware when
quite young with the rest Of the family
from Burlington County, New jersey
and has resided in the same place ever
since.
He was a progressive active man, one
of the best farmers in the county, his
farm being reckoued as one Of the best
in that region of first class farms. He
was elected to the Legislature In 1862
by the Republican party and was dis
tinguished for his integrity aud up

nnrLnada of Cattle.

CHICAGO, August 3O.-A shipment Of
twenty-five carloads of cattle left the
stock. yards this afternoon in q special
train for New York, by way of the Grand
Trunk and Erie Railroads. The cars
used are those of the Montgomery Pal
ace Stock Car con pany, Of New York,
and are so arranged that the cattle can
be fed and wa'ered In transit without
unloading. They are supple with wa
ter at the same time as the engine when
taking water at stations, and food Is let
down while the train Is moving, from
bins In the tops Of the cars. 1t is ex-
pected that the trip will be made inside
of fifty hours, instead Of Ave days.
Though the animals were put in COM
partments the loading was effected in
about the same time as upon ordinary
stock cars. A Pullman coach was at
tachcd to the train and occupied by
Hylas, Sabine Railroad commissioner
of Ohio; Mr.. Horn, representing the
Illinois Humane Society; officers of the
car company and other gentlemen.

Lizzie saeIaennare

NEW YORK, August 3i.-A dispatch
was to-day received at police headQuar.
ters from the Acting Superintendent of
the Brooklyn police stating that the
missing child, little Lizzie Selden, the
daughter Of William @. Selden, Of
Brooklyn, who was kidnapped on Mon.
day last by woman dressed In black,
was found this morn ing and restored
to her parents. Her abductress was
arrested.
The woman is young, rather good
looking, and wears new suit of black.
Her name is Maggie Kappel and she is
% years OF age, single, and resides at
No. 125 Park avenue, Brooklyn. She
works in an envelope factory In this
city. She says she did not steal the
child, but found her in Greenwich
street, New York. AS she did not read
the papers she knew nothing Of the
whereabouts of the parents.
The arrest was brought about through
Information given to Detective Shaugh-
messy by Charles Mclaughlin, young
man who knew Maggie Kappel and
who was with her on Monday night
when she had the child. She did not
reach home with the child until !
o'clock this morning. The detective at
o'clock found her In bed, with the
child by her side. When told that she
was under arrest she wept. She was
taken to the station and Mr, Selden
sent for. When he saw his child he
was terribly agitated and nearly faint
ed. The scene between them was very
affecting.
The mother of the abductress visited
her daughter at police headquarters,
and, strange to say, answers the de
scription of the woman who was at first
reported to have stolen the child. The
girl Maggie Kappel has been arrested
before for larceny. Her picture was
taken, and shortly afterward she was
brought before Alderman MCCARTHY,
in Judge Walsh's Court. She pleaded
not guilty and was remanded.

Hack Driver in Trouble.

This morning as one of the Pioneer
Coach Company's hacks was beinl
backed up to the curb at the depot, the
wheels of the wagon accidentally struch
one of Eastburn's hacks, when the driv'
er Of No. 8 coach got very wrothy about
the matter and commenced to abuse
William Mcdaniel, the driver of No.
2 coach, Of the Pioneer line, who tried
to pacify him, but he was not disposed
TO accept the collision as an accident
and before he could be prevented, struck
Mcdaniel several singing blows in
fiicting several cuts over and under the
eye. Mr.. Mcdaniel refused to engage
in the fight at all, which fact led the
belligerent driver on, and the result
might have been serious, If the by
ISLANDERS had not grabbed hold OF him,
The injured man went across the street
to Stansbury Murray's. who washed
the blood from his face, and dressed
his wounds. Mr.. Mcdaniel made his
return trip but his oye was 50, paintu'
that he had to go to his home for the
remainder of the day. He deserves
much credit for not engaging in the
fight, although no one would have
blamed him if he had severely chastis
ed his assailant.

The Recent Riot.

Officer Tibbett complains about the
comments OF some of the papers in this
city, respecting his conduct last Tues
day night, and says they are unjust.
When Hinson came out of the church,
and made use of the language he did he
only warned him in gentlemanly man
ner not to repeat 1t, as there were sever.
al white men standing around and he
was afraid it would lead to riot. He
was on his beat at the time, and had
not been in the vicinity five minutes
when the fight occurred. The officer
states that his own object in speaking
to the man was to preserve order, and
keep him from melting to a breach OF
the peace. He is under the impression
that Hinson's words would have ley
to a fight, and had there not been and
officer present to prevent it, the same
papers would have censured him for
neglect of duty.
