A FamOus Battle Field,

TEE REALISTIC PAINTING OF THE BATTLE OF SHILOH.
private view was gwen yesterday afternoon
Of the picture OF the battle o. shiloh, which has
taken the place OF the picture OF the battle Of
Manassas at the Panorama building. The new
picture as a work OF art and as q realistic pre-
SenratiOn OF one OF the most hOtiy-contested
battle-felds OF the late war, Is considered TO be
superior 10 the Bull Run picture. The visitors
Yesterday were those competent to Judge OF the
historical accuracy OF the artist Gen. Belknap,
who was at the battle OF Shiloh, was present, and
his comments were OF interest. The Chinese
minister, the Mexican minister and other WELL
known people dropped IN during the afternoon.
There were also seen In the group on the platform
men who had taken part In the battle on both
sides. and the familiar scene OF one OF the most
memorable events OF the war was looked upon by
them not without emotion.

"Neither Female"

Some people think that Methodism and Chris
tianity are the same thing Some think that
Christianity is better than Methodism, and some
think that Methodism is an improvement on Chris
tianity.
Christianity is older than Methodism
If there had been any Methodist Conference at
the time of the resurrection, Mary would not have
been allowed to tell the good news, for 'some
man would have been left out without any ad.
vantage to the cause If there had been any
Methodist Conference in Pauls time, Priscilla
would not have been allowed to instruct the meek
and lowly laymen, to say nothing of bishops, pre-
siding elders and circuit preachers.
In the Christian church there is ''neither male
nor female" In the Methodist Conference there
is ''neither female"
When Methodism gets to be as old as Chris
tianity it will probably be nearer like it. Yours

"SiSter Dora,

Miss Dorathy Pattison is the first Englishwomen
of modern times, not royal parsonage, to whom
apublic statue has been erected in England and
the distinction is well deserved one. Not only
Walsall, but generally the world is the gamer by
those twelve years of brave and patient work that
sister Dora did in the midst of the rough Black
country folk. The cottage hospital she found was
the least of her good deeds, and yet that alone
would have constituted sufficient claim on the
gratitude of the manned and dsease-stricken
workers among whom she labored; but sister Dora
was hospital nurse sister of mercy, and general
philanthropist all in one. Wherever sickness,
and squalor, and want were visible so was she to
combat them and the stories told of the fearless
ness with which, time after time, she faced death,
and of her extraordinary power over rough and
savage men and woman, if recorded in darker
age would undoubtedly by this time been accepted
as miracles wrought by supernatural means. One
instance alone is always told to the visitor in Wal
sail to this day of her ndomitable courage and
great personal strength. man was found on his
bed suffering from the most virulent and loath-
some form of continent smallpox-such an object of
terror and disgust that nobody would 60 near
him. Sister Dora lifted him unaided from the bed
and carried him in her own arms to the ambulance,
and had him taken to the hospital No wonder
work like this gained the hearts of the Walsall
pitmen and ronworkers. They knew that this tall,
queenly woman, whose person. beauty alone
would have surrounded her little troops of admir-
ers in her own station had of her own will, step
ped down among them to spend her life and
strength for them Throughout the country
hundreds of brave, self-denying women are con-
tending with death and sickness with heroism
transcending that of the battle feld but of them
Dorathy Pattison will ever remain the type, just
as in the grateful eyes of Englishmen Florence
Nightingale will always represent the highest en-
bodiment of the soldiers nurse.
