Their Charities are Naught.

The blighting influence of wealth
and voluptuous ease has not power
to crush out the spirit Of pity and
fraternal love and duty from the
heart Of all who revel in their midst.
but brings safety and the longing
for better life to many whose hearts
are too noble to be devoured by the
canker Of luxury and idleness. This
lis especially SO among the women
of what is designated the wealthy
class Of the large cities. Their
numerous charities, and charitable
organizations, usually presided oyer
and directed to large extent by the
preachers who occupy the pulpits of
churches, distinguished by their gid
ed spires, rich upholstered pews,
tapestried floors, gold and silver ser
vice, and costly shrines. These fav-
ored people hear the cry OF want and
feel the sharp pinch of poverty
through all their luxurious surround
ings, and nobly strive to alleviate it.
But their effort, to nse humble fig
ure of speech, is like throwing water
on confagration with tin dipper.
In that great devouring famine that
steadily spreads in the heart OF the
cities their effort is scarcely felt.
The cure for this growing distress,
and human want can never be found
in the charity which attempts to feed
back to the army of hungry victims
who have been despoiled Of their
birthright, by laws and methods
which send congested wealth into the
hands of the few, a part of what
should have been the daily portion of
the starving as it came from the
hand of nature. That the rich. should
ever feel the obligation to distribute
their wealth by the cry of want, is an
anomaly in our civilization. That
which conscience demands to be
restored to the hungry should never
have been taken from them. In this
vast undeveloped country there is
room for all and a bountiful supply
for ali, and work for all to do to earn
a comfortable living If class legisla-
ton and partial, favoritism were not
decreed by law. 1t is our unjust
and anomalous systems which create
distress, which the favorites Of those
systems vainly strive to remedy by
their hopeless charities. and keep
back the hideous face of gaunt famine
that draws nearer their gilded homes
despite all their efforts to prevent
This deyouring spirit Of poverty has
eaten up every civilization the world
has ever known. Had the new con-
tinent Of America never been dis
covered, Europe would now be sunk
to lower plain than Asia at present
occupies. The wealth of a new world
diffused itself over the old, lifting up
man in every region, or sustained
him from sinking to q still lower
depth. There are no more new
worlds to discover and it is only a
matter of time till time makes all
things even. The degradation of the
remotest corners of tho earth must
eventually reach the centre and all
share a common lot. The poor can
not survive famine. When the poor
perish the rich must die also. Our
systems which lead two extremes
away from each other again to meet
in death should not exist, and he is
q criminal who does not aid to rem.
edy such conditions. but blindly
persists in worshing dead theories
and dumb idols.

He Is Prepared to Meet the
Charges Of HereSy.
HE ACCEPTS THE NICENE CREED

the Resurrection-Growth OF Legend
In Early Church Times.

lSpecialto THE HERAIp-Exaninar Disnatch 7
New YORK, July 2.-The case of Rev.
Heber Newton, rector of All Souls church
VINO is charged with heresy, is in the hands
OF committee OF five acting as g grand
Jury, and a.presentment, possibly an iudiet-
ment, may soon oe expected. The charges-
based upon rumors, are his alleged depials
OF the virgin birth of Christ. of the bodily
resurrection of the Savior, and of the YER
oaI inspiration of the Bible. There are
otner points of doctrine and of forms OF
worship. but they are of minor interest.
Dr. Newton said to-day he would appear
Delore the committee, because its sessions
were secret and their report to the bishop
would De secret. II trial were ordered
ne declared he would appear in the properi
manner and with the proper spirit To nsI,ai
MS defense- DIR. Newton further said thar
there was no muZsle on his Iips: that 10
could not remain in the church a dav under
sucn conditions: what ne believed he must
leacn: what he believed ne thought was in
accordance with the church, in fact the
legitimate Interpretation of these creeds-
ne then referred to the occasion eight
years ago when charges of heresy were
maue against him. DIR. Newton then ex-
planned the utterances on account of which.
Ior tnlrd time, charges of heresy had
been made against him. He declared his
acceptance OF the creeds that were the
standard OF his church, and he expressed
ms intention to make his teaching and his,
preaching at all times conform thereto.
Ihese standards Were the Nicene creed
Upon this creed the Protestant church IN
England and America broadly rested.
There are nc other confessions or rules OF
faith maze after this creed 10 which he asa
an Episcopal preacher must subscribe. Asf
to tae birth Of Christ, DIR. Newton ex-.i
planned that the spiritual sense Of the
early Christians perceived mysteries OF 3
new order OF life, human and divine, I'M
Jesus. They could not conceive of it as!
arising in a merely natural manner. Tha,
reason and imagination OF the first Christ.
lans were set TO work and the belief in a
virgin birth took shape as an interpretation
OF the mystery in the Christian conscience.
1t is only the working of the mythical ten
dency, or through this tendency 8 looking
OF the spiritual sense seeking to indicate as
best IL might the action OF a new creative
force Thus the church has seen and held
10 the belief in the virgin birth of Christ.
The belief IN the resurrection Of Christ Dr..
Newton explains as having been developed,
IN similar manner.

Gillian Outrage on British Subjects.

WASHINGTON. July 2.-Valparaiso, Chill,
papers received by the last mail tell Of a
serious complication in which two clerks
Of the British consulate became involved.
According to the statements put out from
British sources the governor of the
province called at the consulate and re-
que5ted that two OF the clerks accompany
him TO the chief magistrate and give testl-
mony in some matter that had nothing to
do with the consulate. Consent being
given they were at once driven to the jail
where they were accused of completely in
the escape Of tine insurgent torpedo boat
Guale. and of conveying funds 10 that
vessel in an envelope bearing the consular

released, but his companion at last advices

but he will probably get more than he or

nineteenth century and demands the trial

The New Public Debt Statement Form.

WASHINGTON, July Am explanation of
the change in the form of the debt state
nent issued yesterday and the reason
therefor is made by the secretary of the
treasury He calls attention to certain
changes in the monthly debt statement
issued for June, 1891, and in the daily
statement required, showing the increase
or decrease in the public debt. Under this
form it happened on several occasions,
when large purchases of bonds were made,
the statement following would show an in
crease in the public debt when a reduction
had really been effected. This was owing
to the fact that the principal and premium
paid for the bonds reduced the cash on
hand beyond the amount of the bonds actu-
ally redeemed. The secretary concluded
to separate The statement Of the debt from
the statement of the cash in the treasury.
Hereafter the statement of the cash On
hand will show the increase from month
10 month and this statement will be part
of rne form now adopted.
In making up the new statement of cash
In the treasury, the figures will show the
different kinds of money included in the
total: against this total will be stated the
cash liabilities. These items heretofore
have been eliminated. The secretary will
not hereafter deauct from his cash balance
the amount on deposit in national banks
nor fractional silver coin on hand. He
thinks there is no good reason why this
should ever have been done.
