A Religious DespOt.

Gen. William Booth, the founder
and head OF the Salvation Army, hat
just returned from India, and said on
his arrival, concerning the detection
of his son, Ballington Booth in Amer,
lea, that although his heart was torn
and he was sorely wounded, he wa.
nevertheless determined to conduct
the government OF the army irrespec.
i've OF persons. If he had been will.
ling to make an exception in favor OF
one person, he would deservedly have
lost forever the confidence and respect
of all honest hearted men and the APP
proval of his own conscience.
The Salvation Army is On absolute
despotism as regards government
Although America is its most promis-
ing field, it will not modify its methods
to conform to American life and
American spirit. That is why the
new movement of Ballington Booth,
adapted to this country, has a bright
outlook. Gen. William Booth was
born April 10, 1929, at Nottingham,
Eng :, was brought up in the Church
of England, was converted at Wesley
an chapel, and broke away early in
life from the Methodist church to in
the Salvation Army work
His wife, Catharine Mumford, who
died some years ago, was a remarka.
BILE woman, whose religious expert
ences were much like the generafs
own.

Army in the United States are Com

Camera Fad Exposed.

1t has long been a fad tor young
ladies to be considered good amateur
photographers, and it is considered
the height of fashion to carry camera
on the street, held in place by thin
leather strap from the shoulders. A
certain young lady, going to one of the
female seminaries, passes along
Fourth avenue almost every day, and
of late the camera, as persons suppose
It to be, has been fastened about her
neck and has hung negligently at her
side. She averred that the art of
photography was her pet hobby, and
confided to numbar of her friends
that she had become really expert in
taking pictures, giving the plates just
enough exposure to the suns ra&. A,
few days ago the young lady was
walking along Fourth avenue with Il
faithful camera at her side and stopped
few moments to talk to friend. The
young man is naturally ;nquisitive,
and while the young lady was convers-
ing in most animated manner about
the SCIENCES she" intended to stake"
during the summer months the strap
on the'top of The square, leather case
was unbuckled aud the lid raised
The camera proved only TO be Lunch
satchel, and the contents were an
onion and a piece of pickle. Before
the conversation had been concluded
the lid was replaced and the young
lady was none the wiser.-Courier-

DROWNED WHILE AT PLAY
Little Eddie Hilton Fell From
Schooner Into the Water.
Conflicting Stories Told as to How
the sad Accident Occurred.
Body Not Recovered.

Charles Edward Hilton, seven years old,
youngest son of Charles F. Hilton, cement
worker, living at 1852 Second street south
east, fell in the river at the foot of Third
street southeast shortly before 8 O'Clock
last evening and was drowned.
The boy had been pla yiBg on the deck OF
the big three masted schooner Daylight,
from Kennebec, which is discharging her
cargo of ice at that wharf, when, accorS.
ing to the statement of one of the deck
hands, the boy attempted to get away
from his Older brother and fell into the
water.
The story told the father of the drowned
lad is entirely different. Eddie Hilton, as
he was familiarly called, was playing with
his brother, George Hilton, and Willie
Howell. The three attempted to leave the
schooner and were walking along the gang
plank, two two-inch boards laid from the
side of the boat to the dock, when the one
on which Eddie was walking turned over
and precipitated him into the water rbetween
the schooner and the wharf.
He was caught by his brother and the
Howell boy, 10th OF whom called to the
men ON the boat to come and help them,
but their cries were evidently not heard,
as the men made no effort to assist the
boys, and they finally had to let go OF him,
and he dropped back into the water.
Every effort was made to recover the
body, but up to I O'Clock this morning the
me engaged in the work had not succeeded.
At the home OF the little fellow the family
and friends nearby are indignant because
the watchman at the ice house and the men
ON the schooner allowed the boys to play
about the wharf and on the boat.

stated that her father. who lives In the
county could not help her. and she had no
relatives to whom she might look for

BEER AND A BICYCLE.

John Henry Tiffany Found 1t Was
Bad Combination.
John Henry Tiffany, an elderly colored
man, living near Takoma Park, made his
debut as u bicyclist yesterday, but did
not have good time ut all.
John caIne within the city limits yester-
day morning and in the vicinity OF Fiji
teenth and H streets northeast, he laborcd
a good part Of the forenoon unloading toll
gate schouners." A little Swampoodle
whisky did not make matters any better.
In the afternoon he mounted bicycle
OF an ancient model and started out Mount
Olivet road, i'll the direction OF the ceine-
tery. Johns grip on the handle bars
some reason or other did not seem to sta
on the pedals. John as u whole was not
altogether right. !,
He managed, however, to get about q
half mile out the read without interfer-
ence. But there lie struck q spag. and
the old man became somewhat puzzled.
Two farmers were driving two big horses
hitched to two big wagons, coming abreast
in the opposite direction. There was
small space between the wagons and John
was scorchirg. He made up his mind to
go between the wagons. He tried it, but
his wheel became unmaDageable and he
was thrown with terrific force under the
wheels OF ole Of the vehicles. Both of
the farmers stopped, for they thought surely
the man had been either killed or badly
injured. They were surprised when they
learned they were mistaken. One of the
wheels of the wagon had passed over one
Of Johns legs, but that was all. In q
moment he crawled from beneath the
vehicle and limped around looking for his
bicycle. He found what was LETT Of it.
