THE PRESBYTERIANS.

There was an animated discussion in
tbs Presbyterian General Assembly in
R chmond yesterday on the attitude of
young peoples societies and their eff
| feet in the churches. The tone Of the
discussion seemed to indicate that there
is very strong element against these
societies unless they are controlled by
the presbyteries or elders. 1t was point
ed out by some OF the speakers that
some of these young peoples societies,
notably the Christian Endeavor, per.
NIT women to occupy positions in them
not sanctioned by scripture. 1t was
pointed out in the discussion that these
societies often become assertive and
where ministerial vacancies occur are
disposed to insist upon having young
pastors,
Mr.. Mccoy, of Virginia, said he
thought that some of the societies we're
the out.cropping Of the world, the
flesh and the devil" They are COM
posed, he contended, largely of non
Christians who come together for
amusement, social intercourse and
prominence.
Some defended the societies during
the debate.
One of the interesting reports was
that of the committee on foreign mis-
sions, of which DR.. Russell Cecil, Of
Alabama, is the chairman. His report
shows that the net receipts for the year
were 81 ,053 81 less than those OF last
year. The committee commends the
recommendation OF the executive COM
mittee to raise two hundred thousand
dollars for foreign missions to slgnaliZe
the opening of the twentieth century.
The report recommends the appoint
ment of delegates to the ecumenlcal
conference OF foreign missions, represent
ing the foreign missionary societies OF
the world The report was adop'ed.
Among the delegates appointed are
Rev. Messrs. J. Vance and t. NJ. Rice.
In the Presbyterian General Assem-
bly, in Minneapolis yesterday DIR. Chas.
Herr presented the amendment report
ofthe ireedman's com mittee as to lynch
law outrages in the south. The language
OF l0S OUutI udyi w uiOu SduoOu oOA1O ca
element, gives place to this paragraph:
1.-THE freedman's is cause that ap-
peals to us with particular insistence at
this time because of the development
of the mob spirit in our Christian land.
We Join heartily with our fellow-citi-
zens and fellow. Christians of all sections
in their horror of those dreadful mani.
festations and we believe it is al hour
for our church to pledge herself afresb
in sacrifice and service to the redemp
ton of the negro from his sufferings and
his sins"
Nobody had any fault to find with
these words.
The Presbyterian General Assembly
today decided to hold the next annual
assembly at St Louis instead of VII
mona, Ind. aud to continue publication
of the new Herald, the official organ of
the Presbyterian Church work. At
the same time the publication was put
into the hands of board of three.

THURSDAY EVENING, MAY %, 1895

Ex-Governor EVANS, of South Car
DINA, recently of General Ludlow's
staff in Havana, is in favor of annexlng
Cuba to the United States, without any
more ado, for the reason that the late
insurgents are utterly incapable OF self
government. He says:
.All this talk shout the patriotism of the
Cuban army is myth. They were largely
actustei by desire for plunder. They now
want to rule the island because they see their
chances of footing the treasury will not be
good so long as it remains under American
control. To turn the island over to the Gu
hans would be a worse crime against clvilzs-
ton than to have allowed the Spanish tc
rule it -
But it cannot be forgotten that it was
to give the noble "Cubau patriots"
freedom and independence and to re-
lieve them of the Tyranny OF the cruel
Spanish government that the United
States prosecuted an unprovoked war
against friendly nation, hiatt has al
cost this country thousands of lives
and hundreds of millions of dollars.

MANY people in the North, some of
them, too, posing as intelligent, cannot
understand the feelings of their en-
forced fellow citizens of the South, and,
apparently, never will. While they
don't deny that the crime for which
negroes are lynched in the Southern
States deserves the severest punish
ment, they demand that the punishment
there should not be inflicted unless
in accordance with all the forms Of the
law, being incapable of approaching
the horror with which the victims OF
the brutal wretches and all their friends
would naturally regard public trial
and this narrowing testimony it would
call for: so terrible indeed, that rather
than 60 through it, many of them
would let the monsters escape.

AN EXTRA STOMACH.
Removed From Man by Delicate
Surgical Operation.

The facts In peculiar case of sur
gerry, in which q former Chicago base
ball player figures, has been made pub
lie at Battle Creek, Mich. The patient
Is Seth Stratton. His popularity is
that he had two stomachs, and yet he
was starving.
Ever since childhood Stratton has
been troubled with his stomach, suf-
fering excruciating pain at times.
Some of the best physicians in the
land have treated him. He finally
submitted to an operation at the hos
pital at Battle Creek An eXamina-
tion on the operating table proved
that he had two stomachs, but was
approaching starvation through inabil-
ity to assimilate food. The object of
the surgeons was to remove the Sec
ond and superfiuouS stomach and do
away with the contraction of the ESQ
phagus that prevented his getting food
into either stomach. This was finally
accomplished. Stratton's trouble had
increased to such an extent that food
had to be forced into his stomach. He
grew thin, weak and pale, and the
operation was all that saved his life
after his case had been pronounced
incurable.
Recently Stratton had an X-ray
photograph taken of his abdominal
region, and it showed a formation on
the esophagus, just above the dia
phragm. 1t was found that since boy
hood he had been the victim of the
contraction of the esophagus, which
grew worse and worse, until nothing
could pass through it. The retention
of food above this place caused a dis
tention of the esophagus, until the
tubes proved it's identity with the ma
jor digestive organ by itself becoming
a stomach. Every feature of the pri
mary pouch was reproduced with the
exception of the muscles Stratton
is inspector for a Chicago gas com
pany. He believes now he is in fail

MUSTACHES.
What They Indicate To Close OBJ
server of Character.

Much has been said of late about tell
ing character by the mouth. This is
all right so far as it goes-that is,
with the women or with men who al
ways wear a smooth face, but most
men wear a mustache. The shape
and size of the mustache may tell as
much as the shape and size of the
mouth.
A man rarely hides fine mouth If
he wears a mustache he does so be-
cause his first experiment proved to
his own satisfaction that his mustache
was worthy of preservation, but he
trains it carefully so that it will not
entirely hide any marks of beauty or
strength. Women do not have all
the vanity.
There is man who wears a heavy
mustache to hide an ugly mouth or
teeth, or to disguise his feelings. He
is in the habit Sf hiding a sarcastic
smile behind the dropping mustache.
No dandy would be guilty of such
a monstrous affair. His mustache
must be fine and delicate, at least
graceful and readily trained into
graceful little curls at the ends. If he
is really fine in his nature the quality
of the hair is silky and soft, easily
curling, and perhaps even naturally
wavy An even-tempered disposition
is indicated by the soft and well
curved lips, showing beneath this
mustache.
The fierce, bristling mustache which
hides nothing, but stands straight up
like stubble in a wheat field, shows
an extremely harsh nature, bad tenn
per and general uncouthness. A man
with mustache constantly on the de
fensive, as it were, like sentinels, is to
be avoided.
This is quite different from the lone
military mustache, with waxed ends
which is supposed to be quite fierce
but which is not so in fact. The mill
tary is quite distinctive from the
French fashion, which is also waxec
mustache, and is arranged with as
much care as any other part OF the
toilet.
AS to colors, the same rule follows
as in the color of the hair Black IL
the most intense In nature, blonde
the least so, while the varying shades
belong to as varied characteristics
The mixture Of colors, such as a rec
mustache with dark brown hair, soft
ems the disposition. An absolutely
colorless hair often goes with a thin
Tipped mouth, which denotes obstinacy
and lack of sympathy or feeling.

touchdown. The goal kick was unsuc- cessful.
 The high school again kicked off and the ball was returned only a short dis tance. The normal resorted to a quar- terback kick and the high school got the pig-skin. In two downs 1t lost if teen yards and carried the ball back five yards farther. which, according to new rules, gives the right to possession. The high school attempted some open field work and lost ground, and when the normal regained the leather a haif- back carried it fifteen yards through the center. The high school men adopt ed a new method of playing. They fell on their knees to block center rusheS, and Haigler twice taking advantage of their posture, which he could not con- strue as a begging for quarters, jumped over the line and placed the ball two feet from the goal line. The normal made two unsuccessful attempts to kick a goal from the center of the field. Only a few minutes remained for riay, but in a succession of center plays the normal secured another touchdown and kicked the goal making the final score 2 to in it's favor.
 The game was refereed by I. D Reedy, and Fred Christy was umpire.
