Seven men were going down on the cage at
Wadesyille shaft to work yesterday, when
the engineer reversed his lever TO hoist
instead Of to let down the men. The cage
went up and was stopped by the sheeye
wheel, and the men narrowly escaped serious
injury, Evan Harris, inside foreman, was
the only one injured, he having several ribs
broken and a bruised body. 1t was a narrow
escape.

Philadelphia, May 1O.-It is probable
that large camp, containing about
$4,000 troops of the volunteer army,
will be established near Philadelphia,
probably at Torresdale or PaoH. These
troops viii include the National Guards
of the New England states and New
York, but none of the Pennsylvania
men, it being the policy of the war de-
partment to send troops outside their
own state.

Look Look Out
For Cancer +!

Pew people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
In a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreadful Of all dis
eases, Is often the result OF some blood
taint inherited from generations back.
It often appears as mere mole or in
significant pimple, which later develops
into an alarming condition. No one
knows but that he may be subject to an
inherited impurity in the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop out in the form of destructive
ca Ger. 1t Is, therefore, important that
any little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal, be given prompt attcn-
tion, or a serious condition may result.
Mr.. Robert Smedley, OF Ocala, Fla,
was the victim of a malignant cancer,
which first appeared in the manner
above described. He writes:
"At first / paid no attention to the
little blotches on my face, thinking they
would soon pass away. Before long,
however, they became sore, and soon
began to enlarge. I applied ordinary
local remedies, but they had no effect

EULoGY OF METHoDIsM.

Which Denies the Allegations and De.
fes the ALLEGATION" as 1t Were.
The slurs against Methodism as a
denomination in the article of the
Republican this morning entitled
THE New Methodist Movement" "
from the correspondence OF the New
York Evening Post, ought not 10 pass
without some remOnstraDce. Who
ever the author may be he evidently
knows very little about the genius Of
Methodism. We hail with delight
every forward movement in the inter-
ests OF the church and race and are
very glad for this ri .tsburg congress,
which in itsel. illustrates the pro-
gresslve and energetic spirit of the
Methodist church. Before other
evangelical denominations have
'pulled themselves" with reference
To the important, practical ard vital
questions and problems OF the hour
MethOdism, as usual, is up and at It,.
When was Methodism ever behind
in any important movement? How
has 1t been on the slavery question,
on the Temperance question, on pa
triotism? President Lincoln said:
"The Methodist church sent more
soldiers to the field and more nurses
20 the hospital, in the late civil war,
than any other denomination. Our elo-
quent and beloved Bishop Simpson
was the confidential friend and ad-
wiser of President Lincoln in the
dark hours of the nations crisis. AS
early as 1874 the northern church al
lowed itself to part company with a
large part of its members rather than
show sympathy with the monster in
iquity, slavery.
Methodsm is aliye to the reforms
pressing upon the country at the
present time. She is studying the in-
dustrial question, the subject OF
socialism, and has ever been inter
ested in good citizenship. In our
great cities she Is establishing hos

voice in behalf of the poor and OPP
pressed. She has great society for
the uplifting aud educating Of the
colored and poor white people of the
South, She has a seamans's aid society
and band of workers to practically
aid prisoners and secure TO them good
homes and a good life after release
from prison. In all schemes of 'appled
Christianity" she is actiye and alert,
and rapidly appropriating everything
of real value, while her missionary
movement, which beside all other
philanthropic and religious work,
distributes about 81, ,250,000 every year
by the Methodist Episcopal church
alone, which represents really only
about ore-half OF all the Methodisms.
One thing is sure, other denomina-
tions eagerly take our ministers II
they can possibly secure them for
their pulpit's and such as so often
become leaders. Men converted at
our alters, and formerly members of
our church today fill important places
in other denominations. The over
flow of Methodism is not to be esti-
mated. Why, however, should we
refuse the other denomination some
thing of our strength and power ? 1t

The alarming increase In the number
of deaths which occur as the result of q

attention, and a strong sentiment against
such methods of treatment Is fast de-
veloping among the most intelligent

case where the doctors treatment Is
unsuccessful, the learned physicians de-
eide at once that an operation must be
performed, and the keen blade of the
surgeon Is recklessly resorted to.
The many caustic plasters which are
applied to remove cancers are more pain
ful than death, and the danger OF a sur
gical operation is as great as the disease
Itself. No plaster or surgical oper-
alton can cure cancer, because 1t Is

land.
"During all his years at the head Of
our government he was dishOnoring
one Of our precious metals, one OF the
great products, iscrediting silver
and enhancing the price OF gold. He
eudeavored, /, even before his indugu-
IaJiUn to Office, TO stop the coinage OF
silver dollars, and afteTwaId, TO the
end of his administration, persist
emily used his power TO that end. He
was determined 10 contract the circu-
lating medium and demonetize one Of
the coins Of commerce, limit the vol
ume Of money among the people, make
money scarce and, and therefore, dear.
He would haye increased the value Of
money and diminished the valve of
everything else money the master OF
everything, everything else the SER
want. He was not thinking of the
poor then Tie had left their side. He
was not standing forth in their de-
fense. Cheap costs, cheap labor and
dear money-the sponsor and pro-
moter of these protesting TO stand
guard over the welfare Of the poor and
lOwly. Was there eyer more glaring
Inconsistency or reckless assump-
tion 2"
Mr.. Mckinley was at that time
forty. seven years Of age and had Ger
tainly arrived at the years OF discre-
tion. He'had been la the midst Of
the silver agitation for fourteen
years. He had heard all the argu-
ments for and against the silver
dollar. And here we find him, in the
middle of iiarrison's administration
a speech which sounds eX-
dcLIy ike one of the speeches OF
Senator Stewart or Senator Teller,
which he and his friends no denounce
as evidences of the "silver craze" He
was then opposed to 'discrediting
one of our precious metals" He was
opposed to ''discredlting silver and en-
hancing the price Of gold" He was
indignant at Cleveland because he
had endeavored to "stop the coinage
Of silver dollars" II made him
shudder to think Of the wickedness
Of Cleveland.s determination "to
cantract the circulating medium
oneEof the coins Of COM
mence." He would not "limit the
volume OF money among the people,
money scarce, and, therefore,
dear. Not he. lie wanted the coin
age OF the silver dollars continued.
Cleveland "was not thinking Ct the
poor then" But Major Mckinley
was thinking of them. Cleveland had
'left their side," Mckinley was
standing firmly by them, Cleyeland
was mot standing forth in their de-
fense." 1t was Major Mckinley who
was doing that. How mad it made
him to think OF the "glaring incon-
ana the "reckless assump-
tion OF Cleveland. who was "profes-
sing to stand guard over the welfare
Of the poor and lowley."
Was IL not touchipg-this enthusi-
astic outburst ef friendship Of silver
coinage by William Mckinley?
