dare, ordered that the members of his stafI
should give up their horses for the trans
port OF the wounded; he enforced it by Civ.
ing up his own chargers and marching or
foot. One reluctantly adds that 1t was a
course In which policy and humanity were
probably equally blended.
Briefly, the principles sanctioned by the
convention are: The care of the sick and
wounded by the belligerents without dis
tinction Of nationality; soldiers incapable
Of serving again shall be sent back to their
country. and not kept as prisoners of war
hospitals and ambulances shall be regarded
as neutral, and when containing sick and
wounded shall not be appropriated by the
enemy: the medical staff shall be cons:d-
cred neutral; inducements shall be held
out to the inhabitants of the country whtch
may be the scene Of the conflict to give aid
| TO the SICK and wounded; that a flag or arm
let bearing red cross on a white ground
the right to the use of which shall be
granted by the military authorities-shall
be the protective badge. The convention
meant the recognition by the military au-
thorities Of the fact that the means at their
disposal were inadequate, which had been
proved again and again.
Under the terms OF the treaty no one,
unless authorized by belligerent, has a
right to wear the Red Cross badge. There
is, however. no penalty attached to the
abuse of 1t, so that every one connected in
the remotest way with the hospital service
acts as though he were entitled to its pro-
lection. 1t is used indifferently by the
makers of invalid foods, surgical material
and appliances and patent pills.
In nearly all countries which are parties
to the treaty there are voluntary aid soci-
eties. Most but not all of them work un-
der the title as we'll as the badge of the
Red Cross In the United Kingdom the as
sociaton Is known by the name of the Ma
tional Aid society. whilst in France It is
styled the Societe de Secours aux Blesses
In time of peace the British society is dor
manta In this It differs materially from the
continental societies, for they are specially
noticeable for the elaborate preparations
which they make. In Holland. instruction
in nursing is given TO those who desire 1t
and are willing to serve under the Req
Cross.
Aiding the wounded is often supplements
ed by the relief of the Inhabitants of a coun-
try in a state of war, and by other forms
of charity. The French society after the
war of 1870, erected heads;ones over the
graves of soldiers who died in captivity.
One hundred and seventy cemeteries in
Germany bear evidence Of this pious care.

The government decreed the reimburse

Medical military authorities have urged,
with professional exclusiveness, that the

difficult to prove that the soldier would

Some time ago, when Clara Barton was
in New York, the writer had the pleasure
of interviewing her with reference to va
rious misconceptions as to the work done
by the Red Cross society. Miss Barton
explained that the society was a great in
ternational order. that by treaty with
forty or more governments, II was part and
parcel of the great machinery of the world.
Among the nations that are a party to the
treaty, Miss Barton mentioned Great
Britain. Germany. France. Belgium. Rus
sia, Austria, Sweden, Norway, Turkey,
Greece Spain, Italy, Serv.a. Persia. the
Roman States. Switzerland, the United
States, Venezuela, Bolivia, Chile. Peru. Ar
gentina and Japan. The nations named
have bound Themselves in time of war TO
regard the Red Cross as neutral, and
without regard to the uniform worn by the
wounded soldier. the merciful mission of
the Red Cross is to succor the injured and
brave death TO carry from the battlefield
the victims Of war.
Not only do the nations bind themselves
to respect the Red Cross flag to the extent
of refrainrg from firing where the symbol

The local Young Mems Christian
Association, now in the third year of
its existence, has come ITO be recog-
nized as an established institution
and an indispensable factor for good
in the community. Feeling that its
many friends, as well as the men,
bers, should have an opportunity to
know Of its progress, its present con-
ditiOn and future outlook, the di-
rectors have requested the pastors of
the city to devote the second Sunday
in October (9th) to the interests Of
the local work and the cause of young
men generally-to which plan they
have given their hearty approval
and cooperation.
Four or five of the best Association
speakers in the State have kindly
consented to come and assist in the
special meetings of the day. These
visiting brethren will speak at the
regular morning church services. The
Mems Meeting at $3.50 p. m. will
proba bly, be addressed by j. A.
STICKY, NJ. d., of Lexington, while
ut the same hour special service for
women is to be conducted by one or
more visitors at the First Presby-
terrain Church. In the evening all
churches will unite in a mass meet
ing at the First Baptist Church, at
which an interesting program will
be carried out. The public will be
cordially welcomed at these services.
