"Only one year ago the conference, after
a calm and deliberate discussion of the
question. recorded u votes for and %
against an elective eldership. This vote in
dictates that the seed planted some years
ago. at the conference above referred to,
has had prolific growth. and from the many
criticisms and comments I have heard in
regard to Bishop McCabes procedure at
the south Kansas conference, II I were
asked for an opinion as to the mind of the
Baltimore conference at the present time.
II would be that a proposition for an cleo
tive eldership would be carried by a large
n aJority.
Strange as 1t may SEEM there is ground
for the belief that there was a purpose to
discriminate at the last Baltimore confer
ence against some of the advocates of an
elective eldership.o of whom I was not one, he
cause of such advocacy. This suggests the
possibility Of an attempt to suppress a free
expression of opinion in regard to matters
Of church polity. than which nothing could
be more dangerous. For men hold dear the
freedom Of opinion and speech and any in
reference with such right but solidihes and
intensifies all differing elements in COM
mon defense for Its maintenance. The

A Baby Saved by q Puppy.

A story OF the remarkable cure
effected in the case of an infant child
of William NcGinty has caused much
comment at Long Branch, N. J. Nc.
Ginty is prominent member OF the
American Volunteers. The McGinty
baby became seriously i'll, and as the
usual remedies failed to do any good
and the little one lost flesh and
strength rapidly, physicians were sum-
monel. They said the child's heart
was weak and that there was no hope
of its recovery.
The father was in despair and was
willing to grasp at any suggestion
which promised the slightest hope of
success. Finally a neighbor urged
McGinty to place o puppy in the
baby's crib at night.
"And what then?" asked the mys.
titled father.
"Just leave the puppy there" said
the adviser. "That's ALL" The baby
will gain in strength The puppy will
lose."
The experiment was made at once.
After two days the baby was perceptl-
bly, stronger, On the third day the
improvement was marked, and the dog
displayed symptoms of restlessness and
weakness. 1t lost flesh; the baby
gained in weight.
As the days passed q little color
crept into the child's cheeks and they
began to regain the roundness they
had lost. The dog continued to grow
thinner and weaker. At the end OF
ten days the child had apparently re.
gained its natural health and
strength, and the puppy was removed
from the crib.
The father feared that relapse
might follow; but there was no sign
of it, and to-day his child is seeming
ly in the best of health. The puppy,
instead of regaining its strength after
being separated from the baby for
whose health it had been sacrificed,
grew gradually weaker, and. last Fri
night, in spite of unremitSing care, it
died.-St. Louis Republic.
