A Reply to the Churchman.

To the Editor of the Press:
A letter was published in the Argus of
April 9th, entitled 1.-THE True Spirit of
Denial" in which the writer endorses
Ruskin in substantially affirming that
if a young woman who attend balls is
mindful of poor girls, and presents them
the dresses she has worn, we'll and
good"
This Churchman is not an exception.
He is representative of large class in
the community, a class which includes
many intelligent and kind people.
Is he right? Is it well and good?'
Is the expenditure Of money represented
by ball, justified by the enjoyment of
the participants and the bestowal of
worn dresses on poor girls?
Ruskin, if he is here correctly interpret
ed, thinks SO, but is this the spirit of Je-
sus of Nazareth, whose follower, the
I"Churchman," by his signature, claims
to be?
Christ said, 'sThou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself." Can one do that
who INDUCES in luxuries while his
neighbor lacks necessities?
In this town, unhealthy, crowded tene-
ment houses breed evils for minds and
bodies. Sick people lack good food and
air. Young and old persons oyerwork
Feeble children have no other playground
than dirty alleyway. While these and
worse things be, can the spirit of Christ
lead us to luxury?
1t is pleasant to spend generously on
our own pleasures. The worlds people
believe 1t to be right. But where can a
'.Churchman' find his justification?
Not from social custom, for it is for
Christ to rule society; not society toerule
Christ.
Not from the value in life of the beau
tiful, for nature, without tprice, offers us
more beauty than the shops.
Not from the necessities of working
people for labor will apply itself to any
production demanded by those who pos
sess the purchasing power, and the pain
caused by REIMBURSEMENT of industry
on fraternal principles, would be small
compared to that caused now by the
prostitution of labor.
Where then can Cnurchman find his
justification for luxury?
/ do not know, unless it be from the
example of other churchmen, who have
often unconsciously, upheld Christ with
the right hand and Mammon with the
left. NJ. S. DAVIES

The coming summer will be alive with
interest, The. dreaded Asiatic Cholera
threatens us, and the Columbian Exhibi-
tior diyerts our thoughts to pleasanter
things. Everyone is awake to watehful-
ness in the former. and all are hoping the
scourge may be kept away.
Scientists state that Cholera is always
introduced into the system through the
stomach.
The food we eat and the water we
drink are our sources of danger.
Cholera, says one, will not develop
if the person exposed is perfectly healthy.
1t is the weak, debilitated and improper
lynourished who are prey to epidemics."
Here is the danger to many.
The Worlds Fair will tempt them to
Chicago. A change of water,-at all
times more or less harmful lis doubly
dangerous, from the fact that the city
water of Chicago has been pronounced
vile and unfit for drinking purposes.
Spring waters will be sold, of course, but
their origin will be unknown, and the
temptation to quench ones thirst at every
opportunity will often be yielded to, re-
CARELESS of consequences. -
Careless eating and drinking, if the
system is run down, will be sure to pro-
duce, if not Cholera, at least an attack
of some sort.
Officials will be on the alert for cases
of suspected sickness.

COUNT DEU PRINCE PIERRE
LFrom q photograph taken in 1881
Dom Pedro repudiated the contract and
never accepted any of the money offered
for it's fulillment.
The Princess, Isabella was never popu-
lar in the domains of her father and
fastened the downfall of the empire by
her undiplomatic acts when he was on
his last voluntary trip TO Europe. The
princess was a woman to command an
army, but she knew no policy. For some
time it has been rumored that she was
draining the hard bound Golfers of the
Bourbons and the impoverished q of
the Braganzas to furnish means by which
her son might be enabled to sit on the
throne OF Brazil. She is shrewd enough
to know her own unpopularity and the
utter hopelessness of ever attempting to
regain the throne.
The prince, her son, is, however. q
very popular young man in Brazil, where
he is known as Prince Pedro, and was
frequently to be seen during the OLD
days at Rio in the Theatre Santa Anna
and the Ruo d'Ouvedor. He has beer
until recently serving as an officer in the
Austrian army. He is closely related tx
many of the reigning families of Europe
His grandmother, the exiled empress
was the daughter of the king of Naples
and his grandfather's mother was a Haps
burg. All of Dom Pedro's descendant
have strong Hapsburg characteristics il
the shape Of light complexions and blu
eyes, and most of them have the cele
brated Hapsburg voice.
The house of Braganza which reignet
in Brazil is the senior branch of the Bra
ganza de Gonzague family and is de
scended from a natural son Of John / O
Portugal, who was created Duke of Bra
ganza in 1883.

GENIUS.

He thrills tho heart with grand, poetic num-
bers
And plucks the crown Of thorns from brows
OF care.
BE wakes and thinks while the siuggard sighs
and slumbers
And seatters gems Of beauty everywhere.
Enhancing music with voluptuous swell
He casts upon the weary, mystic mind.
Sounding sweetly, like some faroff evening
bell
Evolving hope and love for all mankind.
The canvas glows beneath bis magic hand
With forms and scenes devoted and divine.
He pictures all the gems of sea and land,
Securing TO the world the saperine.
His chisel carves the marble into form
OF bust and statue, pyramid a towex,
Defying ages OF both sun and storm
To crush the thought that thrilled him for an
hour.
And yet the genius, with his suffering soul,
Must wander DER the earth misunderstood
By chattering laws who never reach the goal
or knowing how to do their fellows good.
But when he's seen no more In field or town,
And all his mortal part lies cold and dead,
Some sage or city, for their self renown,
Will give q shaft where once he needed
bread.

any of the permanent structures in Gol-
