Part Fret Seems Little Less than {
Handbook of Infideiity.

Handbook of Infideiity.
Religious and social circles are much
worked up over part / of the woman's
bible, which has just been published. A
correspondent says that an inspection of
advance sheets of this work shows II TO
be little less than Il handbook of infdel-
ity. 1t ridicules the biblical story of the
creation, denies that God ever talked di-
rectly with any man. strips the patriarchs
of their halos, and denounces Moses as II
common "fakir." Indeed. Moses could
not have Jared worse in the book If Col
Ingersoll had written it, The style is not
so fiippant as he would have used, but it
is none the less irreverent and blasphe-
nous. AS an example of the iconociastic
tendencies of the new woman, il is some
thing awful TO contemplate. Mrs. Eliza
beth Il. Grannis says the book will be a
decided detrment to the cause of woman
suffrage Mrs. Anna III. Shaw says IL is
the brilliant effusion of prejudiced women.
DIR. Joseph III. Rylance says the very title
of the book is ridiculous and is mere
cloak for a bitter attack upon Chris
tianity.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton is the head and
front of the woman's bible enterprise.

work and Frances Ellen Burr. The meth
cd of work adopted by these leaders of tha
new woman movement is described by
Mrs. Stanton in the preface as follows:
Each person purchased two bibles, ran
through them from Genesis to Revela-
tons. marking all the texts that con
cerned women. The passages were cut
out and pasted in blank book and the
commentaries then written underneath.

CHIGAN, THURSDAY NOVEMBER %, 1895.

American missionaries, however, escaped,
and are now in place of safety.
Mr.. Terrell has notified the Porte that
the United States will hold 1t responsible
for the lives of the missionaries.
This outbreak Is regarded as being very
significant, and as indicating that a sys-
tematic campaign is being directed from
Yildiz' Kiosk against all Christians, and
not against the Armenian Christians in
particular. as has generally been be-
lieved to be the case. This puts quite a
different and more serious complexion
upon the whole matter, and is feature
which will Immediately attract the at
tention of the powers, even If 1t has not
already done SO.
At Sivas, and elsewhere. the Turks
have claimed that the Armenians were the
aggressors. and that the former simply
defended themselves when attacked by
the latter. The weakness of this plea
can be judged from the fact that during
the recent massacre at Sivas 500 Arme-
mans were killed, and only ten Turks met
death during the rioting. 1t is therefore
safe TO presume that it was massacre
pure and simple and not an ordinary dis
turbance. which resulted in such great
loss of life among the Armenians.

is the hat he wears in Montana, where
he is one of the boys, drinks his whisky
straight. chews plug tobacco, greases his
boots and uses double negatives and 9TH
or forms of bad grammar. But as he
crosses the SSth meridian this hat is
folded up carefully and tucked away in
the pocket of his gripsack, so that he may
resume it when he reaches the same point
on his next journey westward. At the
same time Mr.. Carter folds up his frontier
manners and lays them aside to keep un-
til they are needed again. His other hat
is sleek and glossy example of the
stovepipe variety, cut after the pattern of
that which the Duke of Marlborough
wore at his wedding. This he only wears
in the East, when he puts on II bold face,
white shirt, and his manners are those
of a prosperous New York banker.

the people Answers made to these in
quiries by Senators and Representatives
substantially agree in the main in two
things. One is that the revenues of the
Government must be increased. The
other is that the outlook for general legis-
lation is poor. The session promises TO
be one of inactivity, enlivened by stage
plays in the interest of parties and prcsi-
dental aspirants.
While there is general agreement that
the revenues should be increased the
manner of providing this increase prom
ises to make conflict between Congress
and the President right at the start, for
many Republicans insist that the revenue
bill shall be drawn on protection lines,
and there is an intimation of a possible
conflict and even deadlock between the
President and Congress on this question.
The principal subjects singled out for
tariff protection are lumber and wool.
There are suggestions also of an increased
tax on beer for the purpose of increasing
, the r5Tenues.
Cuba. Venezuela aud the Monroe doc

The Nicaragua Canal. Il railroad pooling

question. An effort will be made to de-
prive the Commissioner of Pensions of
the right to cut off pensions arbitrarily or
to reduce their allowances. 1t looks as if
the question of retiring the greenbacks.
If pressed by President Cleveland, as it
probably will be. will overshadow in inn
portance the silver question. 1t may be
made one of the leading issues in the next
campaign. On the whole. very little legis-

Immediately began studying for the min
istry at Andover Theological Seminary,
from which institution he was graduated
in 1882. During his course at college he
acquired four different languages. In
1894 he was ordained minister in the
Baptist Church. His published volumes
have been many and his articles for stand
ard reviews without count The national
anthem, which made him famous, is by
far the most popular of his productions.

ARTIST GIBSON'S ROMANCE.

Whom He Made His Wife.
With the marriage in Richmond, Va. of
Artist Charles Dana Gibson with Miss
Irene Langhorne, one of those romances
that seem to properly belong to those stories
beginning 'Once upon time beautiful
princess" etc, came TO a happy con-
clusion. Ten years ago Gibson persuaded
the humorous paper, Life, to pay him So
for drawing. That was his start in
New York. What Life wanted at that
time was pretty girls, and pretty girls
were what Mr. Gibson was simply yearn-
ing TO draw.
Little by little a young lady. first
known as the american girl" and sub
sequently as the "Gibson girl" began to
be well-known figure in prominent
weekly and monthly magazines. When
asked. as he often was. who this beauti-
full unknown was. Mr.. Gibson used to
laugh and say she was a dream. Mr..
Gibson used TO believe that his unknown
beauty did not exist. but none the less.

Treasurx Stock Is sinking.

Executive that very little dangerous or
disturbing legislation need be feared.
Treasury Stock Is Sinking.
Recent Withdrawals of gold for export
by New York banking houses have re-
duced the balance in the treasury to $780,
439 9039, which is about $1l 900, 900 below
the lawful reserve. and within $4,000
900 of what is considered the danger
point. The bullion in the vaults is valued
at $:54. .0SS. 730 and the coin was $SS, ,013,-
D4S before the Withdrawals of Saturday,
If which $50. .33S. 139 represents outstand-
ing gold certificates. This leaves a mar
gin Of less than $50, 100000 in coin avail
able for the redemption of grecnbacks
and other United States notes. All the
mints have been working steadily
through the summer coming gold with the
hope of escaping another such emergency
as occurred in February, when coin had
to be borrowed from trust funds to re-
deem notes and replaced with bullion.
The shipments of gold last week
amounted to 81. .267 900. and it is expect
edAthat they will reach $4,000 this
week unless something unusual happens
to affect exchange. Ii is believed, too,
that the flow eastward will continue Mt
the rate of S:s000.OOO or $4,OO0,O00 a
week during the remainder Of the year.
and after the first of January. when divi-
dends are payable. IL will be even great
er. The best authorities anticipate de-
pletion of the treasury gold to $J0,UOO,-
OOe or $60.O00.O00 before Feb. 1. unless
some action is taken to stop il or replenish
the reserve by the sale of bonds. No aid
can be expected from the public revenues.
The deficit is piling up larger and larger
every month.
The exports in October were only S12.-
100000 i'm excess of the imports, while
they were S23 1888, 1:j in excess during
the corresponding month last year. For
the ten months of 1895 ended Oct. 81 the
balance of trade in our favor was only
'S31, ,119.740. while during the correspond
ing period in 1894 ii was $96.661 1906 and
this difference is not sufficient to settle
balances in Europe sShd meet mercantile
obligations. Assistant Secretary Curtis
went to New York last week to confer
with the bankers Of that city concerning
this situation. and he was advised by
every one that IL would be necessary for
the treasury to issue another loan in order
20 maintain the Government credit until
a Congress takes some action. The same
syndicate that has been supporting the
treasury all summer and manipulating
exchange so as TO prevent the withdrawal
Of gold is willing to come to the relief Of
the Government again on much better
tcrms than they demanded last February.

IL is a curious fact that very few mar
