Gan anybody who has been divinely
i,eaiea and constantly obeyed the will OF
uod die of disease?"
u Is not necessary that death should
come py disease. We might ripen and
laii as deos the fruit in harvest time. l
believe that Elisha died in disease and
ne loved God. But he had finished his
work. If we are wholly God's S we have
tne blessed assurance that if he takes us
away 1t Is because we have finished our
course'
Is all sickness the work of the devil"
some sickness is not. Some comes
from natural causes. IT we should sit q
long time in damp clothes we would be
lihely to contract sickness, and it would
10 nonsense to charge that to the devil
ooo may bring disease upon you just to
Try your faith and lift you up to higher
plane of service.''
would it be displeasing to God if 1
should recommend an unsanctified friend
10 go to doctor for medical treatment?"
The medical profession has it's place
IN 1he natural world. If man is unable
70 rise above the natural plane, he may
be able to get help from doctor"
Would it be sin against God for a
sanctiified person to take medicine?''
Il don't know much about medicine
myself. In the last II years I have not
touched medicine, or used any other
remedy than Gods power. 1 have
promised God never would If the mem
bers OF your family or your friends want
TO take medicine, and have not sufficient
faith to look solely to God for health, do
not deny them the privilege or tantalize
them''
Ii you should have leg or an arm
broken would you go to doctor or ask
the Lord to set the broken bone?''
If should arrange and plan for the
breaking Of limb, I am afraid I would
break one. God doesn't let me carry any
plan for the future along that line. How
ever, II another person should have limb
broken and come to me my advice would
depend on the state of his mind and
heart. Some of you in case of such an
accident would probably get doctor to
set the bone and look to the Lord to do
the rest. Others would take the whole job
to the Lord

Universalists at the weirs.

The Weirs, August 4.-Pleasant wealth
er again favored the national Universal
list summer grove meeting ,and the shady
grove has echoed the sound of song and
praise today. Today's exercises were de-
voted exclusively to missionary work and
there was large attendance at both SER
vices. The conference and praise service
this forenoon, led by Rev. E L. Carrier
ofssWoodsville, N. H., was followed by ad-
dresses, the general topic of which, "Mis-
sionary Problems" proved an interesting
theme for discussion.
The meeting this afternoon was under
the auspices OF the Woman's Missionary
society. Mrs. G. A. Quinby of Augusta,
president of the society, presided and her
opening speech was an able and instruc-
tive one. She believed in closer orga-
nization and conservation of effort in
each parish. Mrs. Quinby reported nine
state societies and rs mission circles all
doing good work.

QUIET At TURTLE CREEK.
Miners Strike Situation Shows No
Change.
HEARING OF PRESIDENT DOLAN
CHARGED WITH RIOT.

The Miners Camp Reduced by 500 Men
This Done to Reduce Expenses
Camp Has Been Costing $500 a Day
Decision in Dolan Case Reserved.
strike situation has not changed materials
ly from yesterdays report. Everything
about the Turtle Greek camp was quiet,
the only ripple of excitement being the
hearing of President Dolan and the other
officials of the miners for riot and unlaw-
full assemblage. The strikers claim 20
new accessions to their ranks today. A
careful estimate OF the men now at
work in that mine show 215 out of the
usual total of 2S5. No work was done at
the Oak Hill or Sandy Creek mines. The
| camp was reduced in numbers by 300
men. They were sent to their homes for
two reasons-to lessen the expense and
| because these men were not inclined to
respond to the numerous marching orders
imposed on them. The camp has been
costing $500 day to keep it in provisions,
etc., being at the rate of seven cents per
man per day.
At the hearing in the case of President
Dolan and others for riot and unlawful
assemblage this afternoon before Justice
Semmes, number of witnesses were
heard but the justices reserved their de-
cision till tomorrow.
Schmocks Miners Go Out.
Pittsburg. August 4.-The miners at
Schmocks mines on the Red Stone branch
of the Pennsylvania railroad came out to-
day and the mines are once more closed
down. When the news was received in this
city the price of coal jumped to 81 ton
and brokers said prices were likely to adj
vance to $3.50 before next week. Presi-
dent W. P. De Armitt of the New and
Cleveland Gas Coal company says that his
men are not on strike and are not in
sympathy with the movement, ''they
have been intimidated,'' he said, "and T
have no doubt that all would return to
work If the forces of strikers encar' 0ed
at the different mines were withdraw"

Newport. R. l.. August 4.-This was
the day of Newport S great fete in honor
of the New York Yacht club and the
North Atlantic squadron, and the boom
of the last gun tonight ended a celebra-
tion that will long be notable in Its his
tory.
The old town has often assumed holiday
garb and delighted the eye of the visitor
by honoring the New York yachtsmen,
but it has never before been decorated on
such an elaborate SCALE From narrow
Thames street, the alley, which is fiat
tered by designation as the principal
business thoroughfare, to Bellevue ave-
nue., broad and beautiful, the stores and
residences are a mass of bright color
Flags and pennants and mottoes in
bunting are on every hand, with well
coming words to the yachtsmen and
guests on the squadron.
In the harbor the early morning saw
more life than on shore. The yachtsmen
already here were about their prepara-
tions for the day almost promptly as the
disciplined tars on the warships. Ten
ders and launches were busily hurry
ing back and forth between the boats and
the shores, and scores of row boats parad-
ed around the ships of the white squa-
drcn curiously watching the sailors at
their work.
The feature of the forenoon was the
cutter races in the harbor. The race be-
tween the crews from Fort Adams, the
Newport Naval Reserve Torpedo Compa-
ny, seamen gunners from the torpedo sta
| ton, apprentices from the training sta
tion and the Old Colony repair shop, for
prizes offered by Mr.. Oliver H. p. Bel
mont, was scheduled to start at 10 o'clock.
Long before that hour most of the crews
were out for practice spins. The race be-
tween the cutters from the squadron was
| to follow at II o'clock and these oarsmen
were also out for preliminary exercises.

was very well received. This was fol-
lowed by d particularly good vocal solo
by Miss BeSs Shepherd. Now came
the leading feature i'm the address
of Mr.. Hawthorne. of St.. Paul, who
gave historical euIogy of the hero of
the day, following up with some breezy
incidents of a trip through Mexico,
peroratng his address with well
chosen compliment to our own native
land-America-the nation of all ma
tiOns, upon some part of whose vast
domain the sun is ever rising. The
gentleman's style and subject were
fully approved by wellmerned APP

of the days festivities embraced a Sec

tions by Messrs. Harry Ross and Ed
M. Ellis, members of the War
ner Comedy Company, at present play
ing all engagement in this city, all of
whom were vociferously applauded 10y
all appreciative audience. Our choir
then rendered the closing piece, after
which we marched to our private quar-
tiers to muse in silence on the value of
liberty we have lost by our own folly.

"The Philosophy of Crime" is the IT,
tie of a treatise sent to this office. The
caption was as far as we read, for a
writer who perverts the use of words
in this manner cannot have anything
of interest to communicate. There is
no philosophy in crime; it should have
read "the cussedness of crime" to con-
vey the right meaning.
