church might accom- plish any end, no matter

Thus the Second National Council of the

the hierarchy the civil power transcends its

Now our American principle of self-govern-

nat the church must not only be separated
from the state, but also in all temporal con-
Germs must be subordinated to it.
Based upon the idea of the sovereign power
oI the people, the state, as the expression OF
that sovereignty, is the highest competent
authority IN American life. 1t follows, then,
tnaC the state cannot allow another power

On the other hand, in the sphere of purely

HUNTING THE FORGER
Wylie G.. Lyle. Deans Whi1om ONCE
Boy, Returns From Trip to
Sacramento

Wylie G. Lytle, the boy employed as
Office boy by Forger Dean, the man who so
cleverly beat the Nevada Bank out of
$40, 900, returned to his residence, 100 Fell
street, last night and dissolved the mys-
terry as to his whereabouts. He had been
to Sacramento with an ambitious private
detective, who had an idea that the forger
was in the capital city, and who paid
young Lytle So to accompany him, in or
der that the man might be identified and
the reward claimed without delay. Dean
was not there.
W. W. Lvtle, the boys father, who has
a cigar-store on Market street. near Van
Ness avenue, resented a story by Mrs
Davies" of 100 Fell street, who claimed to
be young Lytles foster-mother, and who
charged the father with neglectng his
boy. Lyle gays the woman's name is
really Teller. He says also that she has
only known his boy five weeks, and he
claims further that she is influencing the
boy to evil. He declared further last night
that he intended to apply to the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children
to see If he could not get the lad, who is
only Is years of age, from Mrs. Teller s
control.
Young Lyle, on hearing of his father
intention, at once consulted Captain Lees.
He said the chief of the detectives told
him he was old enough to look out for
himself. The boy admitted some of the
things his father said, but declared that
Mrs. Teller was innocent of any wrong
doing and that he was staying with her
of his own free will

the light of history and modern science can

My reading and investigation has long ago
convinced me that the church of Rome is the
church OF history and thoroughly based upon
the New Testament scriptures, and when she
fails to subStantiate her claims as the custo-
dian OF scripture and traditions of Christianity
her system of dogmatic theology is dead, and
along with it must go the diluted forms of
Christianity, which Professionalism, from Luz

name OF Christianity.

Population of Great Cities.

The French statistician, M. Bertillon,
has compiled some interesting facts re-
garding the population of Paris and
other great capitals. Only 30 per cent
OF Its present population was born in
Paris, and this percentage has remained
practically the same for the last thirty
years. The native population in st.
petersburg is 81 per cent; Al in
Berlin, As in Vienna, and, contrary
to the general opinion, 65 in Lon
don = the highest of all large
cities. OF all European capitals, Paris has
the greatest number of foreigners, more
than lS1 900, exclusive of a, 900 naturalized
foreigners. Among these are 26,863 Ger
mans, while in Berlin there are only 1897
French. London has only $1,000 foreign
ers; St Petersburg, 5000; Vienna, 35 900
and Berlin, $4,000.
In Paris tue number of foreigners in
creased between 1888 and 1891 from $4,000
to Isl 600. In point of mum ers there are
more Belgians (45,000) in Paris than peo-
pie OF any other foreign nationality; then
come the Germans, 26, 1858; Swiss, 26 900;
Italians, 1000; English, $4,000; Luxem-

Aphorisms for Emergencies.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
l. When dust gets into the eyes avoid
rubbing with the fingers, but dash cold
water into them. Remove einders with
a camel hair pencil
2. Remove insects from the ear with
water. Never use a probe nor other hard
substance for the ear, lest you perforate
the drum.
3. When an artery is severed compass
above the squirting surface. Blood from
the arteries enter the extremities.
4. If a vein is severed compress below
the squirting surface. Blood in veins re
turns to the heart
3. When choking from any cause get
upon all fours and cough, if there is no
one present to render the old time assist
ance of pounding on the back. .
6. Remember that Irish potatoes
grated and applied as poultice is quick
and sure relief for scalds and burns.
I. For sprains apply cloths wrung out
of very hot water until the Inflammation
and pain have subdued. For black and
blue spots an ounce of murate Of ammonia
to pint of lukewarm water makes good
application to be kept on constantly.
s. If high fever comes on at evening
bathe the feet and wrap in a blanket, put
warm irons to the feet and give aconite in
water every hour till the patient is in
''good sweat then keep well covered.
9. In fracture Of the skull, with COM
preston and loss of consciousness, examine
the wound, and if possible raise the broken
edges of the skull so as to relieve the pres
sure on the brain, Prompt action will
often save life.
10. In case of poisoning the simple rule
is to get the poison out of the stomach as
soon as possible. Mustard and salt act
promptly as emetics. and they are always
at hand in the house. Stir teaspoonful
in a glass of water and let the patient
swallow it quickly If it does not cause
vomiting in five minutes repeat the dose.
After vomiting give the whites of two or
three eggs and send for doctor.

watering the Hens in Winter.

The egg is composed largely of water,
and unless the hens can have plenty Of it
they cannot produce eggs In the winter
season, when the drinking vessels become
frozen up with ice, and are liable to crack
from cold, the matter of providing water
becomes difficulty We all know that
cold draught of water, in winter, chills the
body, as the water must be warmed by
the body after it is drank, consequently
ice water causes a loss of bodily heat. As
the heat is produced from the foou all
losses Of heat are losses of food. Now, it
is Just as easy to water the hens at regular
hours as it is to water the large stock. and
the best mode of so doing is to use wocden
troughs, long enough to allow all the hens
to drink at the same time. Early in the
morning, at noon and before night, fill the
troughs with warm water, allow the hens
to drink until all are satisfied, and then
throw off the water that remains. In this
manner the troughs will be kept clean, the
hens will learn to drink at regular periods,
and the warm water will invigorate them.
In fact nothing is so inyigorating, or will
so well assist in warding off the cold, when
the hens come off the roost in the morn
ing, with the thermometer below zero, as
a drink of warm water.

Last of the vallandighams of Ohio.

COLUMBUS, O., October 12.-The last
of the Vallandighams moved away last
week from the little town of Lisbon, Co
lumbiana county, in this state, where the
family has occupied mansion since 1907.
Much of the old furniture was sold at auc-
ton, and was eagerly competed for. There
was an old piano, made in London, and
said to have been the first brought into
Ohio. 1t used to be owned by Mark
Hanna grandfather, who sold it to one
of the Vallandighams for SIG, he wishing
to give it to a daughter. on her sixteenth
birthday. In the house years ago the
Rev. Clement Yallandigham, father of
Clement L, Vallandigham, of the late var
notoriety, married David Mckinley, great
grandfather of Major William Mckinley,
at the age of over seventy years, to his
second wife, widow about as old. The
Vallandighams were, on the paternal side,
Huguenots; on the maternal, Scotch Irish.
They came from French Flanders, the
original name being Van Landeghem
They lived near Courtral $40 years ago.
Michael Van Landeghem and Jane, his
wife, were probably the first of the family
to emigrate to America, and they settled
in Stafford county, Va, in 1890.

Great Destruction of Timber.

Mr.. D. G. Amber, prominent citizen
of Savannah, Ca, who has been over the
storm devastated section of Florida, who
has seen the people and heard full accounts
of the havoc wrought, says that 5000
square miles, or 3, 200, 900 acres, of tim
Der are ruined completely. There are, .
says he, 81 O0O board feet to the acre,
at so cents per foot. Deduct about 30
per cent. for overestimate and you find that
the monetary loss to Florida represented
by timber is 81, 500, 900. 1t is no exag-
geration to say that it will reach that
figure. No one who has not been over the
path of the storm can conceive any idea Of
the disaster nor Of the pitiful condition of
the people in that section, whose homes,
crops, barns, live stock and occupation
have been swept away in day There
