MONTREAL. June t3.-Rev. DR.. Camp.
bell, professor or church history in the
Montreal Presbyterian College, is on
trial before the local presbytery on a
charge OF heresy, based on an address
delivered by him last February in
Queens College. Kingston. In that
address DIR. Campbell declared that he
could not believe In the typical Old
Testament God. He said:
The infalllble teaching of Christ re-
veals the fallibility Of preceding teach
ers. Christ did not come to destroy
the law or the prophets. but to fulfill
them by raising their moral enact
ments to the higher, ali-embracing
law OF love, by emphasizing sin and
Its reward and by giving grander
view Of God than all they had attain
ed. The law was given By Moses, but
grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
why did God allow men. holy men,
to err in describing the divine charac-
ter and lmputing to Him what was not
His word and deed2 Tho solution OF
the question ie human freedom-the
greatest thing In man. Those who
believe in irresistible grace overcoming
the will OF the elect will believe in
the inspiration that made speaking
automata OF prophets.

A few days hncs the wife Of wealthy
man went Tito grocery store whore
most Of tho provisions for the house were
bought. She went In considerable haste
to the proprietor end asired him to loan
her dollar. Her husband, she said,
had gone down town and forgotten to
leave her any change, and she must have
little Immediately. She took the bill,
rolled IL up and put IL into her glove,
then In an undertone said; please
charge that as sugar. My husband
might not like it II | borrowed money"
The man said Certainly and the
woman went out. A customer who was
standing 40 q little distance but who
was concealed from the lady by pile
Of tea chests smiled to himself and then
smiled ut the grocer who came back to
finish filing his order.
Although the grocer said nothing, 1t
was well understood fact to the Gus
toner, as 1t Is to many other people In
large cities, that this is not an uncom-
mon practice. Men who are liberal
with the families, as far as food and
clothes go, rarely give them cent for
their own use. They will pay any rea-
sonable bin and many unreasonable
ones, but thsy pay them in checks and
overlook the bills themselves, then they
fancy they know what becomes Of the
money. Such conduct IL unwise. II
there Ii anything in the world that has
o tendency to drive O woman to under
hand practices 1t Is such lack Of conf
dence on the part Of her husband or
father.
A wise way is to make q regular al
lowance for each member Of the family.

WAWra7or, June lA-Arspressntative
OF the United Press, In convcrsation with
Secretary caSlisle, suggested to him that
there was . lack Of precise information
touching the amount Of silver coined up TO
the present time, and also as to the man
ner In which the present operation Of the
treasury under the 10 called Sherman act
results In the payment of gold in the pur-
chase Of silver bullion. In reply to these
suggestions Secretary Carlisle said,
"Tho act Of July IA. 1880, required the
secretary Of the treasury to purchase
t,soo, 900 nns ounces Of silver bullion each
month, and 1t provided that he should
continue the coinage Of silver dollars at
the rate Of Y, 000, 900 per month until the
list day Of July, 1891, and under this act
there have been coined e29, 4os. 461, which
makes the total coinage of silver dollars
under all acts since 1873 t4l9, 294, 1856, or
more than fifty times as much a. was
coined during previous period Of eighty
one years.
I'm addition TO the silver bullion pur-
chased by the government since 1878 and
coined a. above stated, tho secretary of the
treasury has purchased under the act OF
July II. 1890, and now holds In the vaults
Of the treasury, uncoined, 124, 282, $50 fine
ounces OF silver bullion, which cost the
people OF the United States STA. 299, 92o.
and Ia worth today, at the market price OF
silver, Sos, Al, $50.
How long the government shall thus
be compelled to purchase silver bullion
and increase the public debt by issuing
coin obligations in payment for It, is a
question which congress alone can answer.
1t ia evident that II this policy Is continued,
and the secretary Of the treasury shall be
compelled to issue bonds or otherwise in.
crease the interest bearing public debt. ii
will be done for the purpose of procuring
gold with which to pay for silver bullion
purchased under the act referred to-"

David B. Prettyman, who was arreet-
Cd In Dover on Monday. on charge
Of committing felonious assault on
little girl named Obey Ricketts,. at
Seaford last Wednesday, was taken to
that place yesterday by Constable
0'Day. Upon arriving at Seaford there
were fully 800 people at the station
waiting for him. and fears OF lynchlng
were entertained. The crowd. how
ever. was orderly, and the accused
was placed In hack that was In walt
ing. Upon being interviewed on the
way be declined to say anything. ex-
cspt that he was Innocent OF the crime
with which he is charged. He was
taken to Squire Aliens ofiice, where q
hearing took place.
Dr.. Johns, who was called In to at.
tend the child said that he had examin-
ed her. and found that she had been
ravlshed. She Is still In very serious
condition.
Pearle Price. a little girl. said that
she was with Obey on Wednesday
afternoon. Mr.. Prettyman came
along, and after taking hold of Oley's
hand put his other hand over her
mouth. and pulled her into the back
part OF his workshop. The witness
was frightened and ran away, so she
did not know what happened.
Mrs. Laura Ricketts,. the mother of
she did not know that anything had
happened her daughter until last FRI
day. Upon finding her in o serious
condition, and learning the particulars
from her, she called on MIR. Pretty
man. when he laughed and said that
.'he didn't do It."
The examination Of witnesses was
conducted by Attorney.G General Mich
olson, who merely brought out suf1i-
Client testimony to have the accused
held. The victim was unable to be
present. and when the Squire asked
Prettyman If he had anything to say,
he replied:
Il deny the charge emphaticalIy, but
hereafter"
At the request of Attorney General
Nicholson, the accused was commit
ted to the Georgetown jail, without
bail, for a trial at the next term Of
Sussex county court. Tho penalty in
this State for an offense such as he is
charged with, is death. IL is safe to
say that nothing that has ever occur
red In the quiet little town of Seaford
has caused sueh a sensation. There Is,
however, very little difference of opin-
ion In reference to the matter.
Prettyman is well known not only
In Seaford. but pretty generally I'M
Sussex county, and also In Dover.
where he has relatives. He carried on
the business OF an undertaken, and up
70 about six month ago was q class
leader and exhorter in the Methodist
Church. A. that time serious charges
were preferred against him, and after
o trial he was expelled from the church.
HE wife died about one year ago, and
since then then he has been charged
with several improprieties. He is IS
years of age, but his victim will not
be years old until October. Pretty
man is mild man, and until after the
death Of his wife had Il good reputa.
ton, and did a fair business.
