FRIDAY EVENING, JAN. 7, 1925.

A FAMOUS Docs FEAT.-Mrs. Thorn
as F. Baysrd's famous collie dog Rob
Roy Macgregor stopped runaway
horse near Delamore Place, Whining
ton, Del, on Tuesday and probably
eaved a woman and child from serious
injury.
The woman was driving light
wagon when the horse took fright and
plunged rapidly down the road, the &C.
pants of The carriage screaming. AS
the horse dashed by Delamore Place
Rob Roy jumped from the yard, and {,
barking loudly, leaped at the bride OF
the horse. This he caught in his teeth
and held on suspended in the air. The
maddened horse veered to one side,
and after going short distance cane
to standstill, and Rob released his
hold on the bride.
The woman jumped from the car
riage, patted Rob on the head as he
stood wagging his tail and with tongue
out. The child affectionately kissed
the dog, and then the woman continued
her journey, the horss jogging away
peacefully. The neighbors who saw
the incident did not learn the woman's
name.

If we may believe even the most con-
serYative American newspapers, affairs in
Cuba are going from bad to worse.
Charles M. Pepper, who is now in Cuba
for the Washington Star and st Louis
Globe Democrat, declared in a recent let,
ter that there would soon be nothing for
the United States to intervene for on the
score of humanity, because all the Gu
bans would be dead. 1t was Mr. Peppers
letters on the utter failure of Gen
Blanco's relief measures that induced
T President Mckinley to make his unpre-
cedented appeal to the American people
to send food, clothing and medicine to
the island. In one of his recent letters
Mr. Pepper wrote. Candelaria is one of
the villages that has attained a sad fame,
second only to that of Guines. Its ma
tive and concentrated population of 1000
has been cut down to less than one-half.
1t was from the cemetery of Candelaria,
since the advent of the present (Blanco)
administration, that the famished dogs
were driver when they were snatch
Ing the half-buried bodies from the
graves. That 400, 900 Cubans not in arms
should have died within IA months be-
cause of this barbarous struggle may
seem Incredible. The victims of the Ar
menian massacres were not over 10O,0OO
In our greatest of all civil wars but
3O4 800 on the Union side were killed in
battle or died from wounds, diseases and
unknown causes, while the population of
the United States in 1860 was 81 600 900.
Cuba's population in 1890 was only 500,
900, so that about One-third must have
been already exterminated. But from
the reports of United States consuls we
have claims even surprising that of the
correspondent Of the London Chronicle.
An American consul has written to the
state department; "You have no con,
ception Of the situation. Fully 600, 900
have died. mean of the reconcentrados
from January to December / of this
year (1s97).'' This consul claims also
that even the Spanish soldiers in his vi
cinity are starving. "They come to the
consulate begging for food, just as DO the

was cs1led upon to respond to "The day
we celebrate" His remarks were most
excellent, containing many happy allu-
sions to the long, harmonious union OF
his adopted parents, and concluded with
heartfelt wishes that they might reach
the ''three-quarter mile stone" The
third and last toast, "Our Guests, found
a most appropriate response from Mr.
Peck, whose touching words revealed
that they were prompted by the unex-
pected presence of tried and lifetime
friends. The day closed delightfully."-
and found Mr. and Mrs Peck the posses

1t look $ as If Sweden aud Norway
were getting ready to have fight among
themselves. They have fallen into the
prevailing fashion of glowering at each
Other and muttering threats of war be-
cause they cannot agree upon compro-
mise regarding the way they shall be
governed under King y cars leadership.
Norway insists upon having q separate
department of foreign affairs, which
would render the duel monarchy fatally
disjointed, bat whether, with one
country for free trade and another for
protection, there can be any compromise
Of this point is very doubtful. The re-
cent commission to solve the ditficultie
between the sections haa abandoned the
ask in utter d. pair, and military
campaign may be necessary to settle ny
force what cannot be settled by DIP

That great preacher, DR. Lyman Alb
bolt of Brooklyn, with whom Newtown
people feel somewhat acquainted, has
been taking Up popular subjects in his
Sunday night address,. In speaking of
the drink question he said;
"The scientific question, What is the use of
alcohol IN the human bOdy?' is one on which
the ablest scientists are by no mean fully
agreed. But earned 10 years ago from an
eminent ply siciau and still believe there is a
radical difference between distilled and fer
mented liquors, di7tillation being process OF
artificial creation OF alcohol in undue proper
tions, and fermentation being natural pro-
cess. | think distilled liquors never ought to
be taken. 1t Is the right OF every man to de,
eide that question for himself. No one has
right TO decide it tor him. My judgment is
that 1t is best for the individual himself never
to use distilled liquors except as medicine
and to use ale, beer and wine, If at all, spar
ingly. That liberty which every Christian
man has should be exercised with constant
consideration to the effect which the exercise
| of his liberty win have on his neighbors.
There are two propositions that Paul puts
| First, liberty, and, second, how to use your
liberty. will Apply this to the question OF
drinking. The Christi IL Is urged by Paul to
| surrender his liberty for the sake CT his weak
er brother, but he cannot surrender what he
does not possess. Ii he is not tree to drink he
has no power to surrender the liberty tc
drink. You are free to follow your own con
science. You are free to do with the Sabbath
| What you think is right. May ride q bicycle
take a walk, hear Sunday concert? Yes, l
my conscience tells me that it is right. l
| priest or minister q church or law undertake
/ to prohibit me. then stand on the principle
OF Christian liberty, that am tree to decide
that question for myself. Law has right Il
| prevent your interfering with your ne1ghbOr
it has no right to Interfere with your liberty u
follow the dictates OF your conscience. No'
cannot surrender your liberty unless the Lib
erty is conceded"
While agreeing in the main with wha
the eminent preacher say about Chri-
tian liberty, we are inclined to the belle
that he is taking dapgtrou ground. 1
all men possessed the principle ;, and ha
had the "brirging up" that DR. Abbot
ha had, there would be no problem
face. But the saloor are creating an az
petite for drink among the masses, an
drunkenness and crime appear to be o
the Increase. Is it not the duty then c
Christian men to abstain from drinking
To encourage or even suggest the mode
ate use of Intoxicating liquors we b.
lieve to be wrong.

Sunday morning the. rector of the
Church of the Good Shepherd exchanged
with Rev F, T. johnson, assistant rector
at St Stephens church, Colorado
Springs. Mr.. johnson preached very
helpful sermon, from the text, ''There
was no room for them in the Inn
Among the things he said were that there
seemed to him to be no sadder thought
In the Bible, from cover to cover, than
that. there was no room for the Christ
child in the inn. Truly it was minor in
the carol-and the sadder, more pitiable
condition, that after 1897 years of con-
slant keeping of the birthday of our
blessedLord, still hearts are too full OF
worldly thoughts to make room for Him.
Christmas is failure unless it leads US
to the desire, to give our best as the God
of the Universe gave us His only son.
