did she offer him any congratulations.
1t was evident that she had seen the
little scene with Eva and the old jeal-

when Eva cried out:
Don't send Monty away; I am too
frightened to be left with you alone.
Oh, those dreadful flames! Monty

EVA, this is childish; the flames are
out, and you are perfectly safe" Then

There was no affectation about DR..
Blank. His pills were like sugar bullets
that always hit the spot they aimed
for, because he had brain that knew
how to guide their course.
DIR. Blank didn't trust to dashing
steeds, silk hats and buster to hyp-
notize his patients till their ailments
wore out of themselves. Likewise Z he
had little use for members of his pro
fession who made use such tactics.
One day, on the street, he. met a
newly-arrived professional brother who

SECOND FIRE.
A House Owned by A. c. Fisher, in
the Eighth Ward, Quilted Last
Evening---The Origin of the Fire
Not Known.

A second fire occurred yesterday and
resulted in serious damage to property.
About quarter past seven O'Clock last
evening alarms were sent in from
boxes 65 and 67. Owing to the con-
fusion of the two alarms the Island
company got rs. The fire occurred in
what is known as one of the Archibald
houses, opposite the old Archibald
grove on McColoch street, between
Forty-third and Forty-fourth.
The house is owned by A. C. Fisher,
and was two-story brick structure
over twenty years old. The house was
occupied by two families Jos. Fresh
lived on the second floor, and Robert
Meyer on the first floor. They lost
nearly all the household goods, and
those which were not destroyed were
badly damaged. The origin of the fire
is unknown. 1t is thought to have
started in closet in the northwest
corner of the building, on the second
floor.
The house was almost completely
Quilted. When the department arrived
the flames were bursting out from all
sides. The firemen worked two hours
before they had the fire entirely sub
dued. The flames had attained great
Roadway before they were discovered.
The inmates all got out safely.
A christening was in progress and A
large party was in the house at the
time. 1t is thought that one of these
accidentally set the house On fire. The
building cost the owner $4,000, and
there was not cent of insurance on

life comes and goes, with whom life
is transient The only hope the ma
terialist has is of life present and life
gene, in pelIseck oblivion. Christ's
hone teaches that life comes and
something better The materialist
moves in a circle and when he has
gone his round he stops and all is
dead. Christian hope teaches life does
not move in circle, but climbs the
rounds of the ladder of life, and when
one reaches the top, steps from the
highest round and walks along the
pearly streets of the New Jerusalem,
and enjoys the blessed fellowship of
the saints who have gone before and
been clothed in the robes of white and
live in the presence of Almighty God
The universally of the Gospel OF
Christ is very marked. Whoever will
may come and drink of the pure
water of life. The Gospel of Christ is
for old age as well as for young. The
Gospel is especially fitted for youth.
We pass along and find something
in this for the poor people. Did you
ever go into poor home, home
without carpet and furniture broken,
and find one who is spiritually
strong. There is something for the
rich. We often pass by the rich and
think they can take care of them
selves. But they need the help Of the
Gospel as well as you Or l. The uni
versatility of the Gospel Of Christ is
seen. 1t is adapted to all classes OF
people
Whosoever will may come and drink

CHRISTIANITY VS.. tMATERIALISM
Synopsis of an Excellent Sermon
Preached at the Second Christian
Church by Evangelist A. B. Griffith.


Rev. A. B. Griffith, of Cleveland,
State evangelist of the Christian church
in Ohio, concluded a series Of special
meetings at the Second Christian
church last night. The services were
Of a very interesting character, and re-
suited in a number Of accessions to
the membership of the congregation.
Last night the evangelist preached an
excellent sermon of which the follow
ing is a synopsis:
For | came down from heaven not
to do mine own will, but the will of
Him that sent me- John 6-38. This
indicates to Us the purpose OF Christ's
coming to the earth. 1t speaks to us
Of the great end he had in view CT
coming and taking upon himself the
form of a servant. He came not to do
his own will. but the will of his father,
who sent him." He came not to be
ministered upto but to minister" /
will speak OF three or four character
istics Of the Christian religion: pure
morality, foundation in Christ. hope it
inspires in man, and universally, or
its adaptability OF all classes of man.
kind
There are different standards Of
morality. The so-called moralist has
his own standard and not Christ's
standard. His morality depends large
ly upon the reasoning power of man
and has little faith.
Reasoning, in and of itself, will not
save a man. You may reason with
man forever, and it will not save
him. What he needs is the forgive
ness Of his sins. The moralist lacks
one vital principle of Christs NOR
ality which gives to man life now
and hereafter The worlds morality
is like beautiful machine without
any steam to make it go. 1t lacks
something that is vital; what it needs
is the power to move it. The morality
of the moralist is inconsistent in
many respects 1t lacks Christs prin-
ciples. 1t is beautiful to look upon,
but it lacks some vital principle. Thus
he is lost
The morality of Christ comes from
the heart. The religion Christ came TO
found has a foundation. which is
Christ itself a tried and true founda-
ton, a precious stone. He not only
taught men, but he practiced what he
taught. He was an infallible teacher.
He was a teacher who came down and
indicated the way of peace and righte-

they would

the hope Of materialism, with which

Island Held its First Meeting,
The first meeting Of the Union Pres
byterian Sunday school, held at Mey-
er's hall, on the Island, yesterday after
noon, was a decided success. Eighty
four names in all were enrolled. The
music rendered by the quartette choir
was exceptionally good.
The school was divided into nine
classes, and everything was arranged
in good order to make it success. The
school is under the management of a
Board composed Of twelve members,
each member acting as principal alter
natively. DR.. H. H. Harrison, one OF
the Board, was principal yesterday.
Enough money has already been
raised by private subscription to insure
the success of the school for at least
one year The enrolment yesterday
surpassed all expectations, and it is
hoped that the number will be in
creased very shortly.

st. Johns, n. F., May 1.-The COVER
nor, Sir Herbert Murray, issued a royal
gazette extraordinary last night, con-
tanning the following proclamation
received from the Right Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain, imperial secretary of
state for the colonies:
No coal shall be supplied to any
belligerent ships except for the spe-
clfic purpose of enabling them to pro-
ceed direct to their own country or
TO some other named neutral destina-
tion, with reference to which the sup
ply OF coal is given.
Coal should not be supplied at all
II there are reasonable grounds for
supposing that it is in fact to be used
for another purpose"

venting the Spanish fleet from securing
coal here for an attack on American
coast cities.

INTENSE EXCITEMENT
Caused by News Of the American Vie
tory at Manila.


Belle Iron Guards at Which Of
ficers Were Chosen-LetterF From
Private Other Matters
Pertaining to the War.
The news of the success of the
American arms in the first important
engagement with the Spanish forces,
was received in Wheeling last night
with the greatest satisfaction. 1t
awoke the latent enthusiasm Of many
who have heretofore not expressed
themselves publicly, and it sent thrill
of pleasure through those who have
been most eager for the actual fight
ing to commence. The Register bull
letins announced the fact of the Ameri-
can victory early in the evening, and
the news spread like wildfre. Within
a short time there commenced a tintin-
nabulation of the telephone bells in
the Register office, which continued I'M
til after midnight. Persons living in
the suburbs and in neighboring towns
asked for confirmation of the reports,
which had reached their ears.
There was more excitement on the
streets than at any time since the be-
ginning Of hostilities, and the crowds
remained later than usual.
1t was a result which was expected,
but the realization Of patriotic hopes
seemed to inspire the public with a
much greater degree of enthusiasm
than has heretofore been manifested.
This is a most opportune time to
hang out Old Glory.
The decorations in the city yesterday
were more general than at any time
before. Many residences displayed
American flags for the first time. On
the South Side, several business fronts
were decorated with the Cuban flag,
with its blue and white stripes, and
single star in triangular field of red
To-day every owner Of a flag should
bring the banner from its resting place,
and display it on his residence or place
