WASHINGTON, March 23.-The civil service
commission Of the present administration has
become one Of the most prominent features
OF the government, not SO much from the
duties it performs, but from the success of its
members in keeping their names before the
public. Not only has the makeup of the
commission been altered, but the rumored
resignation OF its prominent members came
with a frequency that became, to say the
least, monotonous Now another transforms
ton has taken place in the replacement of
two of its members with the intention, it is
expected, OF forming q permanent commits
sion. The new members are John Fl.
Oberly, Of Illinois, and Charles Lyman,
Of Connecticut. They take the places Of VIII
liam L. Trenholm and Dorman B. Eaton,
respectively, the remaining member Of the
commission being Alfred T. Edperton of

new YoRK, March 23.-They say that
Mrs. Parnell, the heroic mother Of the cham
pion Of Ireland, is III and dying here in New
York. 1t is said, too, that she is in reduced
circumstances. She is entitled to sympathy
from the well wishers, both Of America and
Ireland. She is herself an American, being
the daughter of Commodore Stewart, who
commanded the old frigate Constitution in
the war of 1912, and with it captured several
British vessels. The Constitution was called
'.i0ld Ironsides." This name was given to the
commodore's estate at Bordentown, NJ j.
Charles Stewart Parnell ought to be some
body. He has heroic blood in him from both
sides. On the Irish side the Parnell family
have been remarkable for generations. There
were soldiers, there were distinguished
mechanical geniuses, there were learned
scholars and WRITER'S there were strong
minded women Sophia Parnell Evans, great

woman of splendid brain and executive abil-

outspoken follower of Voltaire and Hume
and Gibbons. Through her urging her hus-
band entered politics, and had a victorious
career as a Wing, she being throughout d

The Bible az IA Platform.

As several temperance workers and pro
Tossing christians have denied that total
abstinence is required by tile Bible. we
have been requested to publish our remarks
at recent meetings on the subject.
As the persons referred to admit that
drunkenness Is condemned. we would only
be required 10 show that occasional or
moderate drinking leads to drunkenness to
prove the relation to the vice, and that it
also comes under the condemnation. We
could also show that the smallest quantity
Of Intoxicating drink increases the pHlsa
ton and temperature. and paralyzes the
nerves and will power, and thus deranges
the normal condition and to a degree pro-
duccs mtoxication, and unless some def
mite standard Of degree is fixed we may
logically and scientifically claim that any
and all quantities produce drunkenness.
But the 3lst verse Of the XIII chapter
OF Proverbs says: Look not thou upon
the wine when ii is red, ,oAeH it giyeth his
color Ill the cup, when it moyeth itself
Alright.
49, At last it biteth ike serpent, and
stingcth like an adder
We think eye better translation than
color. This portion Of the Bible is select
cd because it has so many Of the disputed
points in So small space.
1t fully proves two conditions Of wine;
one harmless, the other dangerous. And
this explains all apparent conflicts Of
praise and condemnation of wines. The
first condition is the fruit Of the vine, the
juice Of the grape before fermentation
The second condition is after fermentation,
when it is red, when it giveth his eye dub
bless in the cup, when it moycth itself
Alright This full describes the process of
fermentation. The breaking mp Of the nat
ural and heaIthful condition and the forma-
ton of a poisonous and dangerous condi-
tom A change from life and life sustain
ing TO death and death producing.
Look not thou upon the wine, is
even stronger than our total abstinence
pledge Of touch not, taste nos, handle not.
The juice of the grape, peach, orange, and
other fruits are well known to strengthen
the stomach, and are taken for its sake, as
also the liver and Kidneys But the fer
mented, poisonous products check digcs-
ton, burn and irritatc the delicate stomach
lining, and impose unnatural and destruc-
tive labor on the liver, kidneys and heart.
