YOUNG PEOPLES SOCIETIES.
Report of the Committee Appointed to
Formulate Recommendations.


WASHINGTON May 20.-Among the
interesting reports submitted to the
General Assembly during its session to-
day was that OF the special Committee
on Young Peoples Societies, consisting
of Rev. f. G. Mouiort, Rev. j. Service
and Elder John Holiday, appointed in
accordance with the overture from the
Presbytery of GAINESVILLE, asking for a
model constitution for young peoples
societies in the Presbyterian Church,
which shall secure uniformity OF organ
ization in harmony with the church
policy.
The committee said IL does mot be-
lIeve that uniformity Of organization or
in harmony with our church policy is
to be attained by the adoption Of one
constitution by all local young peoples
societies. Such societies, like Sabbath
schools, are part Of the church machi-
nery and their conduct should be left to
the church. We have DO denominal
mode to which all our Sunday schools
must conform. The school ia under the
care OF the session. and may be adapted
in constitution and operation to the
needs of the field. So 1t should be with
the young peoples society. Those who
are in authority on the ground and know
the peculiar needs of the field should
have discretion as TO forms and meth
DDS. We question whether uniform
constitution. even If cordially accepted
by all the societies as a substitute for
those they now have, would be an ad-
vantage"
The committee said, however, that
uniformity is desirable In the recogni-
ton by the societies of subsection TO
the session of tho church, and work to
educate members in the doctrines. pol
ity history and present activities OF the
church. Societies thus organized and
working should have the counsel and
help OF the church. Uniformity Of or
ganization, the committee said, is more
desirable and practicable in Presbyte-
rian than local societies. The name
"Presbyterial Union" seemed to the
committee to be we'll chosen and form
OF constitution for such organizations
was submitted with the report.
In connection with the report the
committee presented series Of resolu-
tions commencing the work OF the
young peoples societies, commencing
that the members inform themselves in
regard to the missionary and other
agencies of the church; that presby-
teries appoint standing committees on
Young peoples societies; and that Pres
byterlal organizations CT young people
be formed wherever eXpedient.

Wonderful Results Achieved by q Physi-
clan in Japan. The Treatment Modifi-
cation of Koch's, with Whom the Physi-
clan Studied Seven Years in Berlin.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 21.-From jap
an comes the news that DR.. Kitasato,
who studied under Koch in Berlin and
discovered the bacillus Of tetanus, has
actually succeeded In curing consump-
ton In advanced stages by means Of
some new applications OF Koch's RENE
dies. The news was brought by Prof.
Clay McCauley, of Toxic, who arrived
yesterday on the steamer Oceanic. He
said:
''The government has granted S45, 900
TO DR.. Kitasato for this year and SIS, 900
for each of the next two years TO prose-
cute the study and treatment OF cholera,
abdominal typhus, diphtheria and con-
sumption. During the last winter DIR.
Ki.asato has accomplished some re-
markable results with consumption.
Four out of five patients who have been
treated two months were discharged
cured, and l25 who had been In the hos
pital only few weeks showed marked
improvement. None Of the patients had
passed beyond the second stage, nor had
cavities formed in their lungs; but all
were emacitated and had night sweats,
several coughed 60 grammas OF sputum
daily. One had been in bed six weeks
before being treated. All showed signs
Unmarked Improvement within month.
The sputum decreased and there was
a gain in flesh. No publicity has been
given to these remarkable results, be-
cause the government hospital will not
be completed before early June. Then
announcements will be made and 1t is
expected that hundreds will flock to
Toxic.
"The treatment is a modification of
Koch's. A preparation Of tubercaline
is injected under the skin and taken
into the blood. It's effect is to give
immunity to healthy lung tissue and
enable the diseased portions to recover
health. The most noticeable effect OF
DIR. Kitasato's method is the absence OF
reationary feVers, which have followed
the use of tubercaline in Germany. In
only one case did this fever occur, and
then but once. Hence the patients
strength is not weakened. or course II
cannot be stated positively that the
four consumptives discharged are cured.
Time alone can show that, but it is a
great thing to say that several men,
who seemed hopeless victims OF the dis
ease, are now apparently well, and that
many others are on the way to re-
covery.
"Dr. Kitasota was sent in 1855 by
Japan to study Koch. He developed
the bacillus Of tetanus and the method
Of using it. He studied with Koch
seven years. Now his services are
given to the Japanese government. He
seems to have no desire for money, but
is moved solely by q desire to help his
people. among whom consumption and
cholera annually Stays thousands.

WHY NOT GO raE WHOLE HOG

American Sabbath Union, wants Con-
gress to stop the Sunday mails on the
ground that 1.-THE carrying Of letters on
the Sabbath is Ubiquitous"
The New York Herald suggests that
be demand the stoppage Of the Sunday
street cars, newspapers, carriages, tele-
phones, telegraphs, etc. Stop all walk
ing for pleasure on Sunday and SET up
a whipping post for the wretch who
laughs on the Sabbath day.
Certainly. In the vigorous language
Of well-known citizen, right is right
and wrong is wrong and right wrongs
no man, therefore, DR., GEORGE should
not stop half way on the right path,
but 90 in for legislation that will turn
America into a Puritan paradise on
the Lords day, with no sound save
church bells and sermons and prayers
70 disturb the vast expanse OF solemn
silence.
1t is not likely, however, that the re-
