A Lovers Test.

"Do you see that row of poplars
on the Canadian shore, standing APP
parently at equal distances apart ?"
asked a grave-faced man of a group
of passengers on the Fort Erie ferry
boat yesterday.
The group nodded assent.
"Well, there's quite a story con-
nected with those trees" he continu-
ed. "Some years ago there lived on
the bluff in Buffalo, overlooking the
river, very wealthy banker, whose
only daughter was beloved by a
young surveyor. The old man was
inclined to question the professional
skill of young rod-and-level, and to
put him to test directed him to set
out, on the Dominion shores, a row
Of trees, no two of which should be
any farther apart than any other
two. The trial proved the ineilicicn-
cy, and forthwith he was forbidden
the house, and in despair he drown
ed himself in the river. Perhaps
some of you gentleman with keen
eyes can tell which two tree are the
farthest apart
The group took a critical view OF
the situation and each member Sc
lected different pair of trees. Fin
ally, after some discussion, an APP
peal was taken to the solcmn-iaced
stranger to solve the problem. "Thc
first and the last said he calmly
resuming his cigar and walking
away with the air of Il sage.

William Booth was born In Noting
ham, England, April 6, 1929. From all
early age his tend deDcies we're religious.
At thirteen he left the Church OF Eng
land, ard Joined the MethoCists. 1t was
ut the eVaDgelistic meetings of Rev.
James Caughey, an American minister,
that he first received the potent iltiu-
ences that deteTmiu ed his career.
At the early age of seventeen, the. Gen
eral was an accredited lay preacher,
with a reputation for evaDgelistic
preaching and two years later would
have yielded 10 the persuasion OF his
superintendent minister and entered
the ministry but for feeble health. For
about eighteen months he was wholly
engaged in preaching in London and
the suburbs, and at twenty-fOur, owing
to violent controversy having arisen
In the Wesleyan society, he entered the
MethOdists new connection, by whom
he was regularly stationed in London
Ii was about this time that he was mar
ried.
Mrs. Booth has always been in hearty
sympathy with the work and has brought
to the Generals assistance many quail
ties and suggestions of value, She has
preached and conducted meetings al
most from the inception Of the 0rgaDl'
zatiOn, b'sides writing books ana
pamphlets for the education of the army
and defending 1t from criticism.
Gen. Booth lives In modest house at
ClaftOD, in East London, near tie Train
ing Home for male and female Off 'ers,
He has nine children, all hut one OF
whom, an invalid, are engaged in Saliva
tiOn Army work.
The Salvation Army was started in
1865, In East London, and for some
time Its existence was of most primi'
tive nature. Dance houses, tents and
often only the open air we're their places
Of worship. The cause grew beyond
conjecture The last report shows thai
on May 80, 1856. there were 1862 corps
Officered by 1902 men and women, OF
which 920 corps and 422 officers belong
In the United States. The War Cry, the
official organ OF the Salvation Army
has a total circulation Of over half O
million copies.
The work In the United States ws'
first started In Cleveland, 0, in 1877;
but did not get good fOOt-hOld til
| 1879 when 1t spTaDg up in Boston anC
Philadelphia and in a llw, One-stOrieC
building, half stable, half blacksmith
shop, adjoining the U Furniture anC

Salvation Army had Its first home IL
this country. The movement quickly
spread until Its present proportions
were reached.

FoRAKER's WITNESSES.

Governor j. B. FOraker's witnesses to
the atrOciOus charge made by him In
his speech are iue set. One Is the
horse thief convict Nye, who was Rs
publican before he got into the penlten-
tiary and who will vote the Republican
ticket when Foraker pardoDs him not
In return for his perjured statement.
Bad as Nye is however he Is not the
worst of them.
savanac is another Of Foraker's
penitentairy scoUndrels. This fellow
was sent from Erie county for an
attempt at rape. He was a fisherman
of the lowest instincts, a bully and a
savage brute. He and three other
brutes made the atrOciOus assault, were
caught In the act, tried, found guilty
and sentenced to the penitentiary for
fifteen years. The judge gave them the
| full limit of the law and said he would
have sent them up for ninety-niae years
If he could.
This brute was accustomed to beat his
wife until her shrleks could be heard
all over the neighborhOOd, but his
neighbors feared HIN az he three Atened
to burn their property If they interf red
with him. He febauched his own daugh.
ter and when his wife reproacied him
for the act. he beat her and kicked her,
crushing In the bones Of her face, The
Door woman, as the only relic from q
| life Of torment with this savage brute,
took poison and died. When these facts
became known, mob gathered and
would have hanged SaVsnac had the
Sheriff not smuggled him away and
saved him from death
This monster IL the authority for the
atrociOus charge the Governor of Ohio
makes against men of character and
we'll established regulations. Mr.. For
aker hopes 10 gain partisan advantage,
ry going into the 'niten'iary and pro-
curing an affidavit from tnls black
| hearted wretch, upon the authority OF
which he publicly charges reputable
Citizans with an atTOciOus act.
Would pplj0ry be anything to
monster like this man SarauscP Would
such hardened wretch hesitate to for
swear himselfp How quickly would he
make affidavit to any damnable story
for pardon. He Is the chief witness
that Foraker summons to support his
horrible charges. Tnie incestuOus wife
beater and brute, who never In his life
respected any law Of God or man, is
placed against the word Of honorable
men, and the people are asked to believe
what he says Is true.
Such are the political methods Of Gov
ernOr Foraker. Never has a Governor
Of Ohio acted so unworthy. Republican,
honOring decency should hang thetl
heads in shame at the base conduct Of
their Governor. -
