EvANGELISTS AND HYPoCRITEs.

An exchange announces that Sam
Jones says his recent evangelistic
! meetings in St Louis were a success
! financial. The collections aggre-

that of the president of the United

serious question. as serious for the
churches as for the world OF unsaved.
Undoubtedly with many Of these So
called evangelists their love of the dol
lar goes farther than their love for the
periShing. A good many of these
evangeIists when they get to heaven
mayhap. viii find themselves being
assigned to pretty low down seats and
far to the rear, or otherwise they must
discover some way of getting Il camel

The last temperance evangelist to
make his appearance in Wichita want
ed to enter into a contract with the
Eagle, kind of co-partnership, where
by his work was TO have daily write
ups to be paid for, the amount of pay
to be measured by the financial sue
cess of the meetings Think of it.
There is more hell and hypocrisy in
the life of such an evangelist for a
single day than was ever found in the
columns Of the Eagle in twenty wears.
And vet because of the theme that
this hyena represented, any attack
made by the Eagle upon him or his
work, would have been misinterpreted
by eight out of ten, and inevlIaply. de

AN INTERESTING SUPERSTITION.

! Suppose in 1913 the combination of
! the ROthschilds conceived the idea,
| that since all of their investments were
payable, both interest and principal
in gold, it would be a grand scheme
TO procure the decentralization of silver
| in the United States, which would evil
IDENTITY discredit and cheaper silver
and enhance the purchasing power of
gold. Suppose they acted upon this
idea and procured the demonstration
of silver in this country in 1873.
Then as time elapsed and silver was
discredited in India, probably through
their Vaccinations, the price of silver
estimated in gold rapidly deprecated,
until it reached such a figure that they
conceived the idea, if indeed it was not
part of the scheme from the begin
ming, 10 realize the gold tied up in
their investments, which was largely
in American bonds, for the purpose of
buying in the cheap, deprecated sill
yer.
suppose they did this. 1t will ac-
count for the extraordinary and heavy
shipments of gold to Europe of the
last two or three years. Then sup
pose they bought silver for ~ cents
up, and say before it reached 80 cents
they had S250.000,GOO of gold in silver
bullion, which silver at par would be
worth about 100000 1t is ap-
parent that they would then be in
position to desire the RECOMMENDATION
of silver, making the silver dollar of
equal value with the gold dollar.
Their powerful influence would ac-
count for the cOntentment of the Latin
nations, for Germany's growing inter-
est in bimetallism, and also for the
favor with which we are told England
is beginning to look upon what is 70
her a new financial theory, and has
been FOR centuries q financial hereSy.
The motive the Rothschilds would have
in such scheme is sufficient when we
consider that the profit in such
scheme would be 100 cents on every
gold dollar invested, which would be
S2oo,WU,OO0, or enough to buy all the
necessary legislation in Europe and
America and still leave enough margin
to satisfy even the International
schemerS.

not Mr.. Cleveland know that labor
suffers for the want of employment
only, and that the demand for employ
ment is dead from the want of money,
wholly and solely. What is the use
of discussing the relative purchasing
power of 4 days labor compared with
five years ago, SO long as there is no
opportunity To labor? Say that 4

With ohe wane of the age Of chivalry
there came singular exaggeration in
the toilet of men. They deliberately
initiated the women. They allowed
their hair to grow long, cultivated curls
by the hot irons and ointments and ao-
tually wore chaplets, like diadems, to
curb their flowing locks. In the texture
and color of their garments they showed
the same effeminacy, for they began to
affect brilliant reds and blues and to
wear costly trimmings and jewelry.
