The jokes and humor that the mem
Der Of congress seem to be indulginc in
the greater part Of the time are. as a
rule. even less funny than the wit of
comic papers. Here is a sample of a
congressional joke recently published in
an eastern paper:
"The other day Mr. Lewis Of Nissis-
sippi, new member, in making a short
speech in reply TO structures upon his
siate by Mr. Kelly OF Kansas. cried out
dramatically: The Cenmtlemau from
Kansas seems fond OF crying murder
nurderl murierr Mr.. Lewis yelled the
word murder in such a loud voice aud
so dramatically that Gen Spinoia jumped
from tbs seat aud startled the house by
crying out in an equally loud voice,
police, p0licen Then there was such an
upruar OF laughter that Mr.. Lewis was
compelled 10 take his seat and wait FOR full
two minutes until the house could be
quoted"
The incident was no doubt exceed
,ngly funny to those who welcome any
thing that tends TO kin time and delay
legi iation for the relief of the country
but the plain people who are in the
between the mil stones fail to appreciate
the fan.

Only One Issue.

Mr.. Mills has done the country a SER
vice in his clear-cut showing of the rea-
sons why the question of silver coinage
is not and at present cannot be a party
issue.
Neither party favors free coinage,
and neither opposes it. On that ques'
ton opinion is divided in both parties.
For good or i'll, as Mr.. Mills shows,
we already have free coinage in effect
to the extent of $54, 900. 900 a year, and
no new law on the subject could add
more than $40, 900, 900 or So, 10000 a
year TO that. The difference is too
small to be regarded as a factor of i'm
portance in the distress which has over
taken a large part of the population.
That distress is due to quite another
cause, and, whatever n may think
with respect to silver coinage, the pre-
sent duty, the n thing of overwhelm-
ing concern, is to remove the cause OF
increasing poverty for the farmer, re-
duced wages for the workman and the
rapid absorption of the country's wealth
into the hands of a favored class by the
operation of unjust tax laws which in-
crease the cost of everything the poor
man buys and lower the price of every
thing he sells.
That is the one party issue. The
battle of the people against monopoly
must be fought out to the finish before
party lines can be adjusted to any ques-
tion of less Importance. The reforma-
ton of unjust tax laws is the one great
concern, and for that Democrats who,
like Mr.. Mills, believe in free silver.
and Democrats who oppose it, will
work together till the iniquity is swept
into the limbo where the other kind of
slavery lies buried.-W World.

Prohibitsonists Are Out,

Judge MEG rath's decision u%pholding
the constitutionality of the New Jersey
ballot law attracted wide attention
among Jersey City politicians. The de-
cision was based Oh a suit which Stew
ell Is. Ransom began against Daniel
Black to o an informer's share of
a fine of $25, which the new law i'm.
poses upon persons who vote unofficial
ballots. Both plaintiff and defendant
are members of the Prohibition party,
and their object in bringing the suit
was to test the constitutionalify of the
law. They believed that they could
prove to the satisfaction of any Court
that the law was unconstitutional and
hey made a bitter fight on the section
r.r aiming the provision for the fine.
Jn,lp McGrnih's decision places the
Prohibition party in II queer position,
for unless Its members vote unofficial
ballots at this next election and thus
render each NAL who does so liable o
fine of S25, they will have TO refrain
from voting for prohibition candidates
altogether.
The County Clerk is the exclusive
custodian OF the official ballot, and he
can determine whether or not a party
has complied with the requirements OF
that part OF the law which defines to
whom and how he shall issue the bal
lot tor election purposes. The law says
that he shall ignore any party which
cannot command at least l per cent. of
the names of all registered voters in the
county to a petition asking to be &C.
corded the privilege of using the official
Lallo,. A party that cannot command

son County cannot command enough
names, and for that reason, if its men,

METHODIST and
DISCIPLINE
Are All Men Savedf

Sunday evening from the ioiioWing
text:
"For the hour is coming IN which
all that are in the graves shall hear his
voice, and shall COM forth, they That
have done good, unto the resurrection
of life, and they that have done evil
unto the resurrection Oh damnation."
John 5:2S-29.
The events here described, are placed
in the future. In this text we r
that the resurrection, is not limited TO
the righteous, "All that in the graves
good or bad "shall come FORTH" we
also learn that the character Oh the
deeds performed at some period previous
to the hour OF their resurrection, deter
mines what awaits them. after they
shall "come forth from the graves"
and show that there Will be a difference
in the future state, between the good
and evil.
The question, Are all men saved"
is one that we cannot trust u sym
pathies to decide for us, because our
~sympathies are just as apt to be wrong
as right. Human sympathy Is good
thing, but it cannot be trusted, where
justice is to decide. IL Is very often
on the side OF the criminal instead OF
his victims. Neither a our sense of
what is just and right be relied upon,
to settle this question. We have but
an imperfect idea OF the nature Of sin,
and cannot therefore be competent
judges of its proper punishment. The
word of that Divine Being whose sym
pathies are controlled by infinite wis
dom, and who knows the enormity of
the sinners offence, must alone decide
this question.
Some men are saved, we know. John
saw a great multitude before the throne
of God, who had come out of "Great
tribulation. "-Rev. 1917.
But from what we can learn from
the scriptures, all are mo- saved, but
for some, it would have better had they
never been born. There are four ans.
wers given to our questions.
l. All are saved because, LAY All
sin was blotted out by atonement. III
God is too good to cast any away. (c)
Sin is punished by the sorrows and af-
fictions of this life.
If all sin was blotted out 10y the
atonement and heaven thereby secured
to all why did Christ and his apostles
make entering into life, hang upon
certain conditions, as Repentance,
Faith, Regeneration? Matt. All; $50:

Some Fresh Plastering Now Said to be Re-
sponsible for the Accident.
IDY puNLAP's CABLE coMPANY.l
LONDON, May 23--The true story Of
Emin Pasha's fall from the window. of his
house, which, when the fact was first known,
created so much talk, excited so much dis
cussion, and produced so much acrimonious
feeling. has at last leaked out 1t shows
that it was an accident, pure and simple.
As will readily be imagined, the houses at
Bagamoyo are not renowned for their solidity
of structure, as the climate does not necessi-
tate the use of those building materials
which obtain in other latitudes. In fact,
Emin's house was composed, as far as its
walls went, simply of mud and plaster. and
these materials were not laid on very
thickly, for thin partitions answered all
practical purposes.
The room in which the Pasha and his
friends had been lunching OH this memoir
able day, had recently been plastered for
about quarter of its way up. 1t was very
close, too, that day, and in order to get
little more air Emiu went over TO the
window and leaned out against the new
portion which was still wet 1t gave way

ion in regard to the effect of the
journey. 81 think, he said ''that no pub
lie man ever met with a more flattering re-
ception than he did through the line of
his travel, nor made more friends than he
did. There was not mistake made by him
and he grew in the estimation of
the public wherever he went,
and through his speeches became
better known to the country at large L do
not think he can be longer called small by
anyone He has proven that he is great
enough for his position, and that he is pos
sessed of those social qualities which are
looked for in man in his position. Men
longer hold them.
"He is certain to be renominated. Blaine
will not oppose him and when the conven-
tion meets it will be found practically
unanimous for him. / think the Democrats
will nominate Cleveland. 1t will be the
old ,ticket-Harrison against Cleveland.

of uncertainty into the campaign for both
parties, but Harrison has grown in strength
wonderfully"

watch put upon Government clerks who
frequent the pool rooms at the new Monte
Carlo at the Virginia end of the
long bridge. When the pool rooms
were in the city, the chances for discovery
were too many, and if clerks gambled on
the races it was usually through trusted
friends Since the rooms were driven out
of the district by recent act of Congress,
they are visited daily by hundreds of clerks
A well-known detective said to-day:
'''The pool rooms are at the bottom of more
trouble than anyone has an idea of. Not
long ago had occasion to take the o'clock
train to Alexandria, and over 100 Govern
ment clerks got off the train at Jackson
City, besides any number of others

ment 1t would make Cabinet

how many of Uncle Sans clerks spend

Government clerks are by no means the
only victims of these resorts, and
a very large per cent of the petty
stealing by, clerks in stores has as
a direct cause the habits and desires brought
on by too frequent visits to the city of odds
and combinations. A movement is on
foot among the good people of Washington
to memorialize the next Legislature of Vir-
ginia to enact rigid laws prohibiting gamb-
ling and pool selling.

cause they belonged to the union, the pro.
cession marched very slowly, while the band
played ''The Dead March in Saul" At this
fime the traffic in Oxford street had become
very congcsted, and the Inspector of Police
who was on duty there requested the leaders
to order the band to stop and at the same
time to give directions for the men to march
at a quicker rate, as they were blocking
traffic This request was met with loud
cries of "No, no." and the band continued
to play. The police thereupon attempted to
stop the musicians, but crowd gathered
and prevented it.
The excitement had now reached an
almost fevered pitch, and band-to-hand
fight seemed likely to result, when it was
found that the procession had gone past the
Objectionable house. The order was there
upon given to quick, march. A great many
ladies were out shopping at the time of this
episode, when they were terribly frightened
and fed for safety into the shops, while the
private carriages along the streets were
nearly mobbed.

AN $4,000 DONATION
For the Foundation of an Episcopal
Cathedral in Washington.
MISS MANN'S SPLENDID PRESENT.
A School for Girls, Also, in Connection With
the Cathedral.
THE PROPERTY CONVEYED IN TRUST
rrRoM A srArr conRrspoynryr. !

lfhOM a STAFF CORRESPONDENCE
WASHINGTON, Max 23-An identure
was recorded at the City Hall to-day,
whereby Miss Mary Elizabeth Mann con-
veyed in trust to the American Security
and Trust Company lands owned by her in
Lanier Heights, the primary purpose of the
trust being to devote the property in ques-
tion after Miss ManD's death to cathedral
endowment for the Protestant Episcopal
diocese, of which the District of Columbia
may form part.
After this object is accomplished and the
cathedral foundation is otherwise sufficiently
provided for, the property is to be devoted
to the support of Episcopal educational
institutions. The property conveyed, as
described in the indenture, is 10 lots of
Elizabeth Lanier Mann's subdivision of
parts of jackson Hill and Mount Pleasant,
known as Lanier Heights
Conditions of the Trust.
The conditions of the trust are that Miss
Mann shall, during her life, enjoy the rents,
issues and profits of the property or other
property that may be substituted therefor.
Upon Miss Mann's death the trust
company is to hold and dispose of the
property under the direction of a board
composed of the Bishop of the diocese of
the Protestant Episcopal Church, of which
the District shall form a part; Rev. GeolGe
William Douglas, S. T. A, and the rector
and wardens for the time being of st.
Johns Protestant Episcopal parish in this
city.
The proposes of the trust as named are,
first, for cathedral foundation or endOw-
ment for the aforesaid diocese of the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church, provided that
such cathedral foundation be established
before the expiration of five years after
the death OF Miss Mann. Secondly, when
the cathedral foundation shall be
otherwise sufficiently provided for, the
property is to go to the establishment and
maintenance of a school for girls in con-
nection with the cathedral, provided that
such school be established before the ex-
piration Of ten years, after Miss Mann's
death.
The Present Valued at $4,000.
Thirdly, provision is made for using the
property at the discretion of the board
named for other educational purposes in
case the cathedral foundation and
the school mentioned are other
wise sufficiently provided for. Finally,
in case of failure to execute
these trusts within 20 years, the lands shall
be conveyed absolutely to the diocese, to be
used for educational purposes The prop
erty is now worth from % cents to 81 80
foot, and the entire present, rapidly lncreas-
ing in value, is estimated at $50, 900.
Presbyterians, Methodists and members
of many other religious bodies outside of
the Episcopal Church have joined in approx
ing the plan of the great Protestant Cathe-
dral for New York City and have given
their means to assist in its construction.
Similar reasons are likely to induce similar
support for the proposed cathedral of the
Protestant Episcopal Church in the District
of Columbia.
