REMEDY FOR LYNcHlNe.
Rev. j. 7. Carpenter, Of Washington. ES-
plains II in Worcester.

Rev. ]. T. Carpenter Of Washington.
D. c., spoke in John street Baptist
church last evening on 'The power OF
concentration" He said in part: The
Bible teaches US to cooperate for tenn
poral and spiritual good. Cooperation
is necessary if the colored people of this
country ever hope to obtain position
in which they can assert absolute in
dependence.
Lynching in the south would be wiped
ont if the colored people would become
aware OF the fact that cooperation Is
the solution and the remedy Thrift IS
indispensable as a fundamental prin-
ciple of independence. The colored peo-
pie have a duty to perform and they
should not shirk It. II is the duty of the
better class to accumulate wealth and
power educationally so that the fac
tion in our race which is lowering the
standard of the majority can be brought
TO a proper realization of the fact that
they are abusing the privileges which
this nation has bestowed upon them.

Then 1t is further reported thar Mgr.

a Prime Address.

Millbury, May 2S.-Members of
George A. Custer post 10, C. A. r., OBJ
served the customary memorial service
today. The members went to the Uni
tartan church in the morning and in
the evening services were held in the
town hall. Secretary of State William
N. DIN gave an address.
The roads were very dusty today,
and the residents along the line of the
Suburban road suffered greatly from
the clouds of dust that accompanied
each car as it passed. The taxpayers
think that some provision should be
made for sprinkling the streets.
Another scrap occurred in Braman-
Vile late tonight, and lasted tor nearly
half an hour.
The Pilgrim cadets of Wore ester Wis

STILL ANOTHER.
Plans Multiply for Way in Which TO II
illuminate the City Hall Clock.

Another plan has been proposed for
Illuminating the dial of the city hall
clock. A member of the committee on
street lighting has asked Supt. Henry
A. Knight if system of lights can be
placed in the square windows in that
part of the tower now covered by the
clock dials, with rehectors so arranged
as TO throw the light upon the face.
This plan is suggested in line with the
opposition to cutting into the tower in
any way. Supt. Knight has conducted
some experiments along this line, but
with rather unsatisfactory results. He
is still of the opinion that the amount
OF drilling necessary to place lights
sufficient to illuminate the dial will not
tent.

The circumstances In Paul's life sug-
gested by the text you readily recall.
Paul WAS on the road to Damascus In
company with a number Of persons. Had
we seen them that day as they started on
their Journey, think we should have OBJ
served nothing In their appearance or
manner that would have led US to notice
one man more than another. All seemed
eager about something,-there was a
flash In the eye, nervous energy visible
In every movement, that betokened some
strong resolution, some daring purpose.
Perhaps the leader Of this company, Saul
of Tarsus, might have attracted us by
virtue OF his office, and perhaps, also, by
a certain dignity of bearing; yet, we
should have noted little In him to differ
entiate him from the Others All seemed
actuated by one impulse, all we're Of one
spirit, and thus they travelled along the
dusty road from Jerusalem toward Da-
mAscus.
But, at noon day, an event occurred
which Immediately separated Paul from
all the rest, and placed him on different
level. An experience, shared up to q
certain extent by each, singled him out,
and set him In contrast to those about
him. A bright light suddenly flashed
upon the travellers. All beheld it-one
as clearly as another; so far all we're on
the same footing. But Paul heard q
voice; his companions heard nothing
they saw the light, nothing more. That
voice which Paul heard, which was as
much more important than the light as
she soul is more important than the body,
they did not hear.
This experience In the life Of the Great
Apostle suggests one in the life Of Christ.
John tells us that, at one time, while
Christ was praying and multitude stood
around, there came voice out Of heaven
speaking to Him. Everyone heard the
voice, yet how different was the inter-
probation OF it: some said IL had thun-
dered; others, with keener dlscernment,
said an angel had spoken to Him; but
Christ only heard, In answer to His
prayer that the Father would glorify His
own Name: 81 have both glorified it,
and will glorify 1t again."
What a vast contrast we hnd among
men in respect to their discerIment !
People, subjected to the same environ
ment, whose external senses Of sight,
hearing, feeling, etc., convey the same
sensations, come to widely divergent
results, their interpretations are so di.

had always been heavy burden to him.

another reason.

"Marks?" asked the superintendent
quietly.
"Yes, Marks. 1 have done my best to
reach him, but have failed. He will not
notice, but he is the Only one."
He sighed as he lay back upon the pill
low. That one boy troubled him much.
Afterwards they talked OF other things
but chiefly of the school; of the class up
stairs; of the boys who had gone, and of
the work they were doing; of the gifts
they had sent him, all of which had been
brought into the sick room; and of the
visits they had paid their old teacher,

as they talked 1t grew late, and the
superintendent rose to 60.

said Solomon Stone nervously. "I know
that have talked all the evening about

Talked too much! But then he had
been silent for years; and John Lyons,
as he walked up the street, began to per-
ceive the truth. The old-barrier of self
consciousness had worn off as the body
became feeble, and the spirit, tearing
down the veil at last, had spoken ut

which had borne and toiled and waited so

of the arrival of Solomon Stone, and his
contemporaries were equally in the dark.
In fact, his coming had been entire " I'M

It was on such an occasion that I first

and saw him raise his head to hear the
nomination. He sat by pillar under the
gallery, q small, very commonplace little
man, with thin brown beard. scanty
hairs and 9 stoop in the shoulders. His
face was almost expressionless, and his
whole manner was In keeping with his
face. He did not make remark th rough

his class without word from himself.

who appeared to be anything between
thirteen and sixteen years of age. They
were never five. but they were sometimes
only three. Then the teacher would be
