Latterly we have been impressed
with the many discussions in northern
and southern religious newspapers as
to the need of a genuine, "old-fash-
ioned," h~eart-noving, soul-kindling
life-cOntrolling revival of religion. The
modern revival system is superficial to
a great extent. Men are shaken hands
with and received into the church as
if the church Of Christ were a hos
pital for the reception Of the diseased
to be cured. The church is a body of
believers, of the cured, of the saved
through the Great Physician of souls
and by the blood of Christ as the rem
edy. The Misunderstanding business is a
very poor substitute for deep sorrow,
hearty conjunction, pungent convic-
ton. A thousand shake hands and in
a year you cannot find twenty who are
living "godly, righteous n sober
lives" The papers of many denomina-
ions are urging a deeper, ~profounder
work Of grace in the soul. The New
York Outlook says that the ancient
y Pc OI religious IcNlNdl Is Tile Type we
now need" That is patent. 1t is too
plain to be denied by any one who be-
lieves in genuine regeneration-in the
new life. The whole life needs to be
changed. The truly converted Chris
tan man does not lee in compromises.
He is faithful to Gods standard of
moral rectitude and has no tolerance
for or connivance with Undermining
of the social fabric by political immor-
atty, by venal legislation, by t%olerating
public plunderers," or fraternizing with
or Offering the incense of adulation to
men who violate the Ten Command
ments openly and continually and do
evil that good may come. The Outlook
sharply, but %truthfully says hat 1.-The
revivalist's ex~hortation Come to Jesus
needs to be more broadly and practi-
cally applied. There is no real coming
to Jesus apart from coming to the mind
of Jesus. He reads the Gospel with
small intelligence who thinks that the
church in our country, with all her
power of moulding public opinion,
stands toward acknowledged abuses
n wrongs according to the Masters
mind, or deals as he dealt with the
cOVetOus mammOn-spirit, which is the
curse of modern as of ancient civiliza-
ton. This, the ~revivalist's OppOrtuni-
ty, is also every pastors opportunity
to become a reViValiSt of the S%criptural
type, speaking for Christian citizenship,
exposing and r%eprOving the moral an
archy which the spirit of greed has in
reduced Nothing is of religious worth
that is not of ethical worth"

Rapid

Anent the prevailing discussion as to the
highest speed ever attained by expert
shorthand writer's, there is a story going
the rounds of the feat of a Georgia Court
5tenographer, which by long odds broke
the worlds record in that line of work.
1t was when that eminent jurist, the
late Judge Richard Clark, was presiding
in the Atlanta circuit of the Superior
Court. One of the most remarkable muir
der trials was in progress. The evidence
was conflicting, and the Judge was called
upon to charge the jury on some decidedly
new and interesting legal points. Now the
Judge was a rapid talker. In this in
stance it was very important that every
word he spoke should be correctly re-
corded, and he so cautioned the s~tenogra-
pher.
Then Judge Clark began. AS he war
med up to his charge he was speaking
at the rate of $50 words a minute. Once
he glanced towards the stenographer.
That worthy official seemed to be half
sleeping over his work and apparently
writing very slowly.
Mr.. -, are you getting my words down
cOrrectly?' asked the Judge.
At this the stenographer seemed to
wake up. With little concern he replied
That's all right Judge, fire away. l
am about fifteen words ahead of you

Raleigh, y. c., June 1S.-President
Meserve, of Shaw university, tenders
trustee Of the blind institution here.
His letter will be a surprise to the gov
erEOr as it makes a direct attack on
the policy of the trustees who this week
ton, and also in the colored lea mute
and blind institution. Colonel Meserve
says he was appointed by a democratic
governor and accepted the position
witch the determination to serve the
highest interest of the state. He says
that the spoils system as practiced
is a nuisance and one of the greatest
dangers to a healthy body polite, and
declares hat an official trust should
be administered, particularly in edu-
cational and charitable institutions, re-
gardless of political reward or personal
or political dislike. In conclusion he
says:
Il cannot with self-respect and on
scientious desire to do my duty, remain
in a position where 1 must share re-
Sponsibility when the majority of the
board has adopted a line of policy
which is positively detrimental to the
highest good of both the institution
and the state"
This pointed declaration will attract
attention all over the state.

A ORDER

sscretary Of the Stafe-To Prevent the
Delivery Of the Supreme Court Reports

Especial 10 The Messenger.)

Especial 10 The Messenger.)
Raleigh. " c.. Tune 1s.-This after
noon a temporary restraining order was
served on Secretary Of State Thompson
by the sheriff OF Wake. The order was
issued by Judge McIver and is return
able before Judge Robinson at Colds
boro July 9Th and was applied for by
Mark n. Smith. trading as the South
ern Law Book Exchange. II restraints
the secretary Of state from delivering
supreme court reports to Alfred VIII
liams & Co, and restraints the latter
firm from receiving them. 1t alleges
that Williams & Co. are given a monop-
oily. The books in question are main
~ new reports, but a good many are
old ones. For several years they have
been stored in a rented warehouse and
not insured. Under the arrangement
made Williams & Co. keep these books
in their store. and save the state rent.
The act of the legislature provides
that the secretary Of state shall Sell
these reports at a price not exceeding
$500 each and may sell them to any
licensed booksellers, allowing such dis
count as may to him Seem just. Smith
say in his affidavit that there are 40, 900
volumes. The secretary says there are
1000 or 5000. He also says that after
he had made this contract with Will
liams & Co. Smith came to his office
and said he would have given $500 TO
get the contract; that he CThompson)
would not hay made the contract with
Smith because he was not sufficiently
satisfied with the latter's PERSONAL re-
sponsibility; that the agreement with
Williams & Co.. was made after con-
sultatiOn with the council of state and
by its advice. The secretary saws he
has already made the delivery and in
tends TO have the books out of the
warehouse; that the arrangement made
with Alfred Williams & Co. is the same
as that made by former secretaries
with the old firm Of that name. and i'm
making the agreement it was expressly
stipulated that Williams & Co. should
give half their commissions to other
Raleigh booksellers on all orders the
latter received.

lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side Of his face, along his

he suffered agonies for weeks at a time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit a teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had a consultation Of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he

will swear that there are no cases of
