New York Letter in Hartford Times
Gotham has always been a wonderful place
for ups and downs, but doubt it it has pro-
duced any thing more remarkable in this
way than is seen In the career o. Ed Stokes,
or, as an increasing number Of people now call
him, Mr. Stokes. His election the her day
rs president of the United Lines Telegraph
company marks an advance in few years
that may well excite surprise Previous to the
Jim Fisk episode the public in general knew
nothing about Mr.. Stokes. What it learned
then was that he belonged to respectable
family, but had been rather wild. Fisk
crossed his path tor woman, bounded him a
good DEAL aud, it was said, also threatened
his life. Then came the shooting IN the
Grand Central hotel, followed by Stokes long
imprisonment in the Tomhs, and the still
longer one at Sing Sing. That was supposed
10 be the end of him. Certainly no one
imagined that ed Stokes would be a man of
note in the community, with so very dark
cloud hanging over him. He served his
term at Sing Sing, and soon after his release
went TO California.
Very little was heard of him for some time.
Only his personal friends knew how be was
employed there. No one had any thought
that, having been down so low, he would ever
rise again. But the stuff that makes men
rise was in him. After while New Workers
heard that magnificent bar, the most elab-
crate and costly in the city, had been opened
in the Hoffman House, with Ed Stokes as
proprietor, and they went in thousands to
see it. 1t certainly was worth seeing, the
pictures and statues alone rep esentng Il
small fortune. The bar fourshed. and
af,er smother while it became known
that the Hoffman House itself was large
ly owned by Stokes. Its business grew
rapidly, and Stokes made money fast. He
also made the acquaintance OF a number of
wall street men, tor his bar became their ia
vorite uptown resort. Gradually his footing
among the Wall street men became firm, and
they, on the other hand, gradually recog-
nized in him an uncommonly able business
man. He went into Wall street himself and
made some pretty good turns. And now he
comes to the front as president Of telegraph
organiza,lan that promises to give the over
grown Western Union Company hard push
some OF the strongest financial men in New
] iork are AT his back, and evidently have con-
fidence in him. The rise of Ed Stokes since
his dreary days at Sing Sing is very remark
able, indeed

A CAMP MEETING SCENE.

In a hammock swinging
To aud fro;
Love above them winging
As they go
Happy man is clinging
As they glide
- a maiden singing
On each side.
'Tis a scene that pleases
Passers.by,
But the boy that leases
winks his eye;
Creeping on h's knees, he's
At the tree,
Cuts the rope In pieces,
Two or three.
Breaks the pretty sandwich

With a roguish hand which
Bears the blade;
Spoils the dream so grand which
Hung aloft;
Down they go on land which

know that they are only talking puncomb.
Both propositions are impossible under our
constitution, and even if public sentiment
was favorable to either it would be at least
two years before constitutional provision
could be procured making it possible. What
the republicans ask is the regulation Of the
liquor traffic under the existing provisions, a
tax law practical in its requirements and a
law that can be enforced. The republicans
go before the people with practical business

heroic enough to load car with gold on the

msrauders in its transit to the sub-.reasury

cial hero OF the nineteenth century is now
sending millions of gold in this manner

VINELAND's NEW RELIGION.
Germs In the Top of the Head Which
Must be Developed by Rubbing.
From The Nei0 YORK. Sun.

From the Neao York Sun.
VINELAND, N. j., May S.-There has
been established here an association call
ing itself the Order Of the New Life, Or
ganized, as it is explained by its organ, a
paper called The OUerShddODinQ P0acer of
God, "that the law of the Oyershad-
owing power Of God may be taught; that
the organic physiological and psychology
cal second coming of God in the flesh,
universally, may be commenced; that the
Judgment day may be inaugurated in the
souls Of humanity; that all sin may be
forgiven; that all diseases may be
healed; that the creation of the soul Of
man may be finished, and the fOunda-
ton Of the kingdom Of heaven laid upon
the earth"
The head of the order is Dr. Horace
Bowen, for twenty-five years a practicing
physician in Jersey City, and afterward
in Connecticut and in Glen's Falls, n. Y.
A year ago the doctor leased the Grove
House Hotel and opened a sanitarium, in
which the principles Of the order were TO
be practically applied to mankind.
An inquiring stranger was received a
few days ago by DIR. Bowen, medium
sized man, all OF whose face except the
piercing blue eyes and the nose and tore
and iron-gray hair. The doctors ability
as physician was evidenced by his
prompt and correct diagnosis Of the vlsi-
tors ailments as purely imaginary. He
had discovered, he said, after long years
of study, the source and secret Of life, a
great "pOwer," a creative agency that
had worked out the evolution Of the world
from the prOtOplastic state to its present
stage. Mankind was now ready
for one further and final step
up into absolute perfection and equality
with God. Christ was the great forerun-
ner Of this condition, and in the coming
New Life which DR.. Bowen had entered.
and into which, by the power he had dis
covered and controlled, he was 10 lead all
mankind, everybody was 20 be endowed
with the attributes Of Christ. The germs
OF the power lie dormant in the top OF the
human head, and are 20 be aroused into
life by DR.. BOwen's treatment 10 do their
work of perfectlng the body. Disease will
be banished and immortality will follow
as a matter OF course. The doctor Is sure
not only that he will never die himself.
but that all who come under the
influence Of bis power will live forever.
The ply steal regimen mt the sanitarlum
consists OF starvation and rubbing. There
are two meals day, with no meat at either.
Dried apples, cat meal. and other filing
diet leads the bill Of fare. True entrance
into the New Life, however, Is 10 be
gained only by fasting. Forty days is the
ideal period OF the fast. One woman, IL is
asserted, attained this point last week,
