SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

The old Brandywine Baptist church
at Chadd's Ford. Pa, has just cele-
brated its one hundred and eightieth
anniversary. Geo. Whitefeld preached
there in ITO.
The Baptist year book shows the
largest number of baptisms in any OF
the states during last year was in
Texas, 24,501 being reported. Virginia

They own thirteen churches, the value
of which is $63,3O0.
-Fong Foo Fling, Chinaman of San
Francisco, is an enthusiastic and eff
cient member of the Salvation Army.
1t is rumored that he will soon be sent
to China to organize and lead an evan
gelistic movement of the army in that
country.
During recent revival services at
Fultonville, N. Y, saloonkeeper was
converted and emptied his entire stock
of liquors in the gutter. In the even
ing huge bonfire was made of the
barrels and fixtures, the evangelist
preaching to great crowd assembled
from the top of an empty whisky bar

AT the university in Christiania,
Sweden, all departments of study are
thrown open equally to both sexes;
and as public officials of the state
women are given a fair chance, many
having been appointed postmis-
tresses. The only career absolutely
close to women in Christiania is the
legal career.
The Methodist church in Colorado
voted recently to admit women as lay
members of the general conference in
future. There was a long and ami
mated discussion over the proposal,
but when it came to a vote the ballot
ing was sixty in favor of admitting
women and none against, but fifteen
members refrained from voting.
The last commencement at West
Point military academy was attend
ed by five thousand spectators. On
the platform were generals who
had fought in the Union and con-
federate armies. They were present
to see their sons receive diplomas Gen.
Rugglee gave the address and delivered
the certificates to the graduating class.
! Bishop Turner of Georgia, of the
colored Methodist church, has returned
from Liberia and other parts of Africa,
where he goes regularly in the inter-
ests of his church. He reports that
the 227 colored colonists who went
from the south last spring to Liberia
are doing well and are contented. He
thinks more of the colored people in
south should go to Africa.
Rev. DR.. Rufus L. Perry, who died
recently at Brooklyn, was born in
slavery in Nashville. He escaped to
Canada at the age of eighteen, and
there gained the rudiments of an edu-
cation. Later he entered college at
Kalamazoo, and after graduation
studied for the Baptist ministry. He
| was one Of the most learned preachers
of his race, being a fine Hebrew, Latin
and Greek scholar.

PRISONERS OF WAR.
A Century Ago These Unfortunates Were
Brutally Treated.

Century Ago These Unfortunates Were
Brutally Treated.
Little more than century ago pris-
oners of war were treated with sys-
tematic brutality. That gave John
Howard his first task. Providence
made him sufferer in his Own per-
son, and thus pointed out the special
field in which his philanthropic i'm
pulses were to find employment
Towards pity was reused by the tales
of Indebtedness he heard from Lisbon
after the great earthquake. He took
passage on the Hanover brig, with the
intention simply of helping those un-
fortunates. But the Hanover was
captured by privateer, which carried
it's prizes into Brest Forty
hours the crew, with Howard,
lay in the bare and sitting
hold. A biscuit each was thrown to
them before the matches were closed,
but no drop of water did they receive.
On arrival at Brest no one needed their
cries. They were thrust into dun
geon underground, damp and filthy
beyond description, and several
hours" passed before the goalers
brought food or drink. Opening the
door then, they actually pitched" a
leg of mutton among the throng, to be
scrambled for, and torn to pieces with
the teeth.
Six weeks Howard remained in this
fearful place with the sailors-men of
peace, be it observed, following. their
lawful business, but in time of war.
Relieved then on parole, he applied
himself to ransom his fell ow-sufferers,
and afterward travelled to other forts
and stations where Englishmen were
confined. 1t seems impossible that
any of them could have been more hor.
rible than Brest, but Howard found
such; at Oman, for example, where
thirty-six poor wretches were buried
in one day. Returning home, he in.
vestigated the English arrangements
for prisoners of war, and found them
not less horrible. 1t is we'll to recol.
lect that when Howard appealed to the
royal commissioners for the sick and
wounded. sending in detailed report,
without moments delay orders were
issued to correct the abuse. Moreover,
the commissioners transmitted his
statement to France, and the French
government was not less prompt in
acting upon it. But for how many
generations had that awful state OF
things continued!-London Standard

GOOD WORDS FOR CRICKET.
The Old Game FINDS a strong
Defender.


Mr.. WALTER BEsANT. writing in
the Queen, says:-The Spectator is
mournful over the expenditure re.
Gently incurred by the London
evening papers in reporting the
cricket matches between Australia
and England. "There is no OBJ
jection," says this paper the
italics are mine" social or moral
to cricket, which is most healthy
and educative, though excessively
tedious, game, but If this elevation
of it into subject If international
interest does not mark an increase
in the appetite for trivoLity there is
no meaning IN avordS." 1t is by
such paragraphs as these that
the Spectator occasionally shows
itself quite out of touch
with the things of the
day, and it is by reason of such
paragraphs, despite its very great
ability, its desire to be fair, and
its wide sympathies, that the
Spectator fails to become such
a power in the land as in other
respects it deserves to be. First of
all, to call cricket tedious Why,
there is no game in the world, to
one who understands anything
about it, that is less tedious. As for
myself, short sight and incurable
awkwardness always rendered me
useless as cricketer. / went in,
as a boy, when 1 had to, in
order to make up an eleven;
l never got any runs, or bowl
ed anybody - my ball never
would go anywhere near the
stumps-or caught anybody. Yet
to me. as to thousands and mil
lions of Englishmeu, cricket has
always been the king of games
There is no skill like the skill of
the batsman or the bowler. There
is no dexterity like that of good
fielder. There is no game which
so commands admiration. There
is noue 80 full Of the changes and
chances Of fortune. Tedious I
Cricket tedious2 Then what in
the word is interesting at
marks" says the Spectator, IAN
increase in frivolity -. grave
interests no longer fill the minds
of men," Obi But, really, what
foundation is there for this That
people bought eagerly the news
of the Australian match; that tens
of thousands are interested to see
whether, in this king of games,
We are to hold our own,
or whether we are to yield
to the colonists, is true enough.
How long does it take to satisfy tina
interest ? Five minutes only.
Five minutes reading of the paper
decided the question, after which
everybody returned to the graver
questions of the day, which were,
l suppose, the County Council
and the influenza. The Spectator
appears to suppose that the whole
conversation and thoughts of mon
have been occupied for days by
this match. Nonsense The
human mind is quito able to take
a proper and healthy interest in a
noble game, yet not to neglect
more important things. The
Broad Street aud Liverpool Street
trains Of that evening were full of
men who bought their paper,
who turned with esgerness to the
report OF the match, talked of it
for five minutes, and then went
back to the graver interests of the
day.

BROKE HIS LEG.
Aged Chinese StOrekeeper Thrown
Out and Injured.


Early last night Eli Crawford, a
half-caste, by means of little too
much whisky, got it into his head
that he owned the town, and more
especially a certain building on
Maunakea street, near Beretania,
In which Akina, an aged China
man, keeps a store. He entered
the place and began giving orders,
requesting that certain articles in
the store be brought to him.
The Chinaman did not relish the
idea of having q strange person
enter his house In such a manner,
but kept silent until the commands
OF the young tyrant became too
strong, when he told Crawford to
get out of the building.
Putting himself in the place of
the proprietor, Crawford made a
grab for Akina and, exerting all his
strength, threw him head-frst out
into the street. The Chinaman
fell in such a manner as to break
his left leg above the knee.
Marshal Brown telephoned to
the office Of the Board of Health
for an ambulance. On the way to
the hospital the groans of the
Chinaman attracted the attention
or persons standing on the streets,
many of whom concluded that
another case of cholera had been
discovered.

INFANTRY TEAM HAD SNAP
They Demolished the Treasury Nine
Without Trouble.
Unusually Good Game Put Up by the
Military Jeager Resigns as
Custodian of the League.

The Washington Light Infantry team
may have played weak ball in the past,
but the game they put up against the
Treasury department nine at National Park
yesterday afternoon was undoubtedly the
prettiest exhibition of all-around ball
playing seen on the grounds for a long time.
The cold snap must have been the mascot,
for the boys played the game like veter-
ans. They gained the lead in the start,
and held il to the fIuish.
The Treasury Department team was some
what weakened by the absence of Far
rell, and were obliged to play a substitute
who was badly in need of practice
Phil Wisner, as usual, held down third
base in good style for the Infantry, and
Doc Kleinschmidt made several beau
tifuI running catches in left field. GIea-
son, although little wild, pitched a good
game, and was excellently supported behind
the bat by GilToy.
HeydleT made a couple OF nice stops at
short. and Winkleman covered the territory
around second base very cIedtably. Gil
roy, Heydler and Gleason did some timely
stick work.
MHlspitched a good game for the Treasury
nine. but his wilE,ess at times was very
costly. Barrows caught well, Tut threw
TO bases wildly. Gardner played stifny
at short, aud Buchanan and Thompson
batted Wen.
There was one thing that everybody
missed during the game, and that was the
presence OF Capt. Jeager, who has Resigned
his position as custodian.
The league had a good custodian in the
captain and " i'll be obliged 10 get an A No. l
