When my first child was born had
great trouble with my breast. 1t would
break out with an itching humor that
was almost more than could stand. It
was something like the thrash and it

the milk would touch me or the child
it would cause the humor to break out,

sore that I was driven to wean the
child and raise it on the bottle. had

A NAVY YARD MYSTERY.
How Did Thomas McElvOy Es
cape From the Terror?

New York, SEPT. 11.-The
authorities at the navy yard, and
especially the officers of the mon
itor Terror, are considerably per-
picked over the escape of Thomas
McElvoy, a bluejacket, from the
monitor while she was in dry dock
on Tuesday night. McElvoy joined
the navy only two months ago,
and he was evidently Disguised
with his new surroundings, fcAo g
deserted within month.
He was captured on Saturday
and confined below decks on the
monitor with a steel band around
each ankle and a chain connecting
them. On Tuesday night he re-
tired with his company, but In the
morning no trace of HIM could be
discovered. The two gangways
from the vessel we're guarded, and
the sentries all declared that Nc
Elvoy did not pass out that way.
Great efforts are being made to
recapture him.

NEGRO PROSPERING, TOO.
New York Times.

The Rev. Richard Carroll, Sun
day school missionary of the
American Baptist Publication So
+ciety, one Of the most widely
known colored ministers in the
South, was in New York yester-
day. He said that in South Caro-
lima and Florida, in which States
he travels constantly, there is a
remarkable increase of prosper
ity among the people of his race.
They are not only doing we'll in
farming, buying land wherever
they can get it, and improving
their stock and equipment, but
they are engaging in mercantile
business successfully.
The difference between this
year and last is rcma, kable. Crops
and prices are good and labor is in
demand. The colored churches
are always faithful barometers Of
the financial condition of the col
ored people, and they are flourish
ing as never before. On the sec-
ond Sunday of July special col
lection in the colored Baptist
church at Columbia, S. c., yield
ed $74O. The negroes in Georgia
arc in better condition and more
advanced in every way than those
of South Carolina or Florida. In
every part of the South, however,
they are prosperous and hopeful.
The clergyman has unusual
views on the subject of lynch
ing. In nine cases in ten. he
says, the men who commit the
crime for which lynching is the
penalty, are loafers or bad char
acters, without position, means
Or friends In the sections of
the Sou'h, especially along the
coast. where the negroes out
number the whites from ten to
fifty to one, that crime is almost
unknown, he says, because the
few whites there are OF a high
class, do not come into contact
with any negroes but their own
servants, and they are well pro-
tected. The lynchipgs usually
occur. he finds, in communities
where the races are more nearly
equal in number aud intermingle
more. He says the better class
of negroes believe as strongly as
the whites do in prompt infiction
of the death penalty for the crime
alluded to, but he thinks the
guilty men should be killed at
least under form of law, and
that special provision should be
made for Immediate trial before
some adequate tribunal and quick
execution.

No Sickly Green Stamps.

No SIckly Green Stamps.
Washington, Sept 1.-THE
s'ckly green postage stamp has
had a Knockout. Red will re>
main the color of the two-cent
stamps. It all came about through
the discovery to>day of a forgot
ten resolution adopted by the
Universal Postal Congress, which
met here last spring. Somebody

membered the resolution and
told Postmaster General Gary
about it. Then Mr.. Gary Informed
Secretary Gage, who Immediately
issued an order resembling the
previous order to the chief of
the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing to strike off the two
cent stamps of the sickly hue.
The resolution of the Postal
Congress provided that after
Jan 1 1898. the stamps of domes-
tic letter postage in ali the coun~
tries composing the Postal Union
should be printed in red. which
is the color cow used here. The
delegates of the United States
signed the resolution. and the
Treasury Department and the
Post Office Departm ent are bound
to abide by its provisions. The
Treasury and Post Office officials
still favor the use of the green
here as a n after of economy, but
deem it inexpedient to change
the color for the few months be-
fore the international agreement

The Sinai gospel, indispensa-
BILE in conviction, is the great de-
ficiency of the present age. In
popular pulpits it is considered
discourteous to speak of hell and
damnation, and intolerable to
preach on it. A cultured clergy
man, in a city pulpit, found it
necessary in the process of his
discourse to say "hell." He said
it so softly that a lot of money
loving merchants present thought
he said "sell;" some Univeraslists
in the audience thought he said
''all's well" while an old saint in
the amen cornes actually certified
that the man said "hell.'

Lunatic at the Windsor.

New York, Sept. IA man
who gave his name as Rudolph
Weiss, registered at the Windsor
Hotel on Tuesday night. In con-
versation with the clerk he said
that he was Hungarian and was
in this country on an official
errand for his Government. He
acted queerly, but as he was not
boisterous he was not interferred
with. He went away ON Wednes-
day morning, after paying his
bill.
Last night the man walked into
the hotel, and, after strolling
around the corridor for time,
went to the telephone closet and
picked up the telephone book.
The boy in charge asked him what
he was looking for.
s'The White House number, :"
he said.
"Who do you want there2'
asked the boy.
"President Mckinley" said
the man. II want some money :.
I wrote him last week and he sent
me 800, but I've spent all but a
dollar and need some more.''
The telephone boy summoned a
policeman, who took the man to
the Fast Fifty-first street police
station. There he said he was 20
years old and clerk, but refused
to give any other information
about himself. He was sent to
Bellevue Hospital for examination
as to his sanity.

''I would give the world to
have the experience of the brother
who has just sat down. said a
speaker in religious meeting.
"That's just what it cost me,
was the reply. Give up the world
for. Christ and He will work out
in us the richness of His love
and an eternal weight of glory.
"Come yet out from amongl
them, and be ye separate, does
not mean to live the life of a her.
NIT or a recluse in the world, but
to live such a different life from
the sinner as to have the difference
discernable even to the careless
and Indifferent.
Men would have you believe that
they can be Christians and still
follow the vanities of the world.
It is false.
The religion of today, as some
would show it forth, is to save
ones miserable soul from hell
without letting the world know
we have undertaken the job.
To try and get into heaven with
out travelling the path of straight
ness is more than for man to
draw a salary when he has rend-
cred no service. It is an attempt
to defraud God out of the wages
of righteousness.
If you don't intend to lead a
Christian life according to the
revealed will of God, don't bring
disgrace upon Gods people and
Gods sanctuary by suffering your
name to be recorded on some
church register.
When Paul was converted on
that Damascus road the first thing
God said to him was to "stand. %
To-day God is calling to his chill
dren to "take a stand" There is
no greater need than for men who
will assert themselves boldly.
If you say you are Christian,
live like a Christian. Don't be a
little driveling coward.
Rev. Sam P. Jones, in a recent
sermon makes these pertinent re-
marks concerning the doctrine of
'holiness" or "second blessing"
ga man is never better than
his heart. A clean heart is the
need of every Christian man or
women. This should be the
cry and hfH plea and the earnest
object OF every believing child of
God: Create in me a clean heart,
o God!'' Thank God that many
people seek and obtain it. I don't
care what you call it, whether the
second or third or thousandth
blessing, it cleans out and then
cleans Impurities the heart,
cleans up the life, and, thank God,
so benign and wondrous and SO
needed work of grace can be
prossessed by men and women.
I welcome it under any name,

the spirit which would depreciate
