Snm Jones and the BaPtisIs.
Baptist Record.
1t belongs to great men to make
great mistakes. Sam Jones is great
man, and he made a great mistake at
Columbus when he rudely offended a
large class of his co,laborers, by a
coarse and foolish remark. He made
a far greater mistake in trying TO JUS
tify his unfortunate remark by charg-
ing Baptists with doing what is abso-
lutely certain they did not do; i. C..
Attempt to proselyte people to doc
trincs which they have ever held to
be rank heresy. Falsehood has way
Of breaking down of its own self, by
its inherent weakness.
The resolutions of the Columbus
church, published in this Issue, are to
the point and are sufficient. For our
part, we take an interest in the good
work done by Brother Jones, but we
are not willing to be abused and then
misrepresented by him. And in this,
all his brethren will say we are right.
No doubt they regretted his unfor-
tunate remark, and will more regret
his still more unfortunate explanation.
The remark could be easily condoned
as having slipped out without thought,
the explanation is deliberate.
Since writing the above our eye has
fallen on the following in the Times
Democrat:
Rev. Sam Jones preached his fare
well in DIR. Jeffrey's Baptist Church in
Indianapolis Tuesday. The reconcilia-
ton between them was brought about
in open meeting the day before. DIR.
jeffrey having offered the prayer
walked across the pulpit and gave
Sam Jones his had, Tho latter grasp
ing it warmly, said: at is a conclu-
sion, for the work of grace in this
city," he added, "ifthe Baptist breth-
ren construe my remarks as retlec-
ton on them as denomination, | re-
tract the word liar as construed to
apply to them, for | would no more
reflect on that denomination of Chris
tian people than ] would upon my
wife and children. May God bless
that denomination as he blesses the
Methodists, Presbyterians, and Others
who love Christ" This brought DIR,
Jeffrey again to his feet, and he re-
sponded with feoling; az heartily
accept this broad and ample explana-
tion and retraction by Brother Jones.
l am satisfied that he has a great kind
heart, and that the word was slip of

Maine Farmer.
The idea has generally prevailed in
the past, and possibly more BY farmers
than others, that for the business Of
farming but little intellectual training
was necessary. A willingness TO work
on in the old rotine, that has been
transmitted from the practices Of the
past, was all that could be safely relied
on for success. This narrow view,
born and kept alive by ignorance only,
is mistaken fallacy Of the past, fast
dying out, rather than the sentiment
Of intelligent, present thought. The
agriculture of to-day is not based on
manual labor alone. The education Of
the mental faculties, as well as the
training Of the hand to work skillfully
il recognized as an essential in fitting
for the life work or the farm. Upon
these, intelligence and labor combined,
rest the hope ofprogress in agriculture
And yet it may be questioned if farm
ers fully appreciate the value TO their
children of home training and educa-
ton in the work and in the bnsinesa Of
the farm. Each year there 60 ont
from the farm young men and women
to assume the work Of managing farms
for themselves. Are these young men
and young women as well educated
and trained in the work and business
affairs Of the farm as they, the sons
and daughters Of farmers, ought, with
their opportunities, to be ? We fear
there is yet too much Of indifference
in parents in teaching their children
the business Of farming, not only as .
trade, but as profession. 1t ought
to be kept constantly in view that the
training and education needed BY the
farmer can largely be learned at home,
and that the practical knowledge thus
gained will be of inestimable value SO
much capital with which 70 begin the
business Of farming.

Exchange.
-Four young men sitting about
round table in the Hoffman House, IN
New York, the other night, were listen
ing to story about an actress that
fifth young man was telling. All the
lads laughed at the story except one
blonde-moustaehed young fellow IN
dress suit. lie looked as solemn as 40
alderman during an investigation, and
as the talk drifted of to the discussion
of women--as talk among young men
generally does--he got up, excused
himself and went ont. The remaining
four looked little surprised at this
abrupt departure until one of them
suddenly remembered and explained
that the absent youth had just Joined
the White Cross Society, and had
pledged himself not to tell any more
such stories. Not one OF the men
knew much about the society, whAch
is just exactly one year old In New
York, and so one Of them investigated
and discovered its meaning.
He discovered that the White Cross
movement aims to promote personal
purity among men, and was organized
in England in 1883 by the Bishop OF
Durham and Rev. J. b. Lightfoot. 1t
spread rapidly through England, the
Continent, Australia, and reached
America about a year ago. Dr. d.
F. De Costa, rector of the Church OF
st. John the Evangelist, is secretary
OF the society in New York. Z. y.
St. John Roosa, Henry III. Webster
and James McConaughy are the lead
ers Of the White Cross Society OF the
Young Mems Christian Association.
There are some 600 members OF the
society from the ranks OF the Young
Mems Christian Association alone, and
quite number Of churches and sun
day,schools have independent societies.
When young man JOINS he snbscribes
to the following creeds. lie agrees
/, To treat all women with respect,
and endearor to protect them from
wrong and degradation,
2. To endeayor put down all inde-
cent language and coarse Jests'
8, TO maintain the law of purity as
equally binding upon men and women
4. To endeavor to spread these prin-
ciples among my companions and to
try and help my younger brothers.
5. To use every possible means to
fulfill the command, "keep thyself
pure"
