 WHEN you come to think of 1t ', Adam and Eve were very fortunate people. Adam never had to run dead heats with the house dog. He did not even have to sit in the par Tor and talk politics with Eve's father. When they qnarreled and Eve climbed 8 tree, Adam didn't have to write long letters and spend To ng hours of anxiety and postage stamps to make it up, says an ex- change All he ha d to do was to sit down under the tree and wait until Eve's temper recovered it's normal sweetness. He never pa tronlzed confectionery stores; he plucked nice pineapple and pre- scented it with his compliments. Theirs was beautiful dream of welded life. When Eve wanted new dress Adam went to the nearest fig tree and got it. And Eve never felt called upon to mend a bursted buttoDhole or to take all the blame when he stumbled over the rocking chair. It was a monopoly of un- adulterated comfort; and if Eve had only had the feminine sagacity to lift up her skirts and scream when she saw the snake that time, we would not be having all thls trouble now

ANOTHER STREET CAR ACCIDENT
a Prcnts Place Car Runs Into and
Injuries q Small Boy.


Yesterday morning between and S
o'clock IL stree. car on the Brighton
line. which was in charge of Motorman
Mills and Conductor ARP, ran into Il
cart which was being driven by II 49,
year-old son of Mr.. Samuel Russ, who
lives in Brighton, and injured the boy
about the legs and body.
The particulars, as learned from q
gentleman who said that he was sit
ting at the window of his house and
saw the accident as it occurred, are:
that the boy was driving n cart with
some vegetables in it. and that the cart
was close up TO the track and that the
electric car came along at q pretty
good speed and, no doubt the motor
man thought there was room to clear
the cart and did not slack uD: but i'll
that his judgment was wrong. The cart
was nearer the track than he thought
and the front of the car struck the
cart. turning it over, knocking the
horse down and throwing the youth
out. he falling on his side, injuring his
leg and bruising his body. The CON
tents oc the cart were scattered in
every direction. The hey was picked
W. the cart was rightcd and he was
put in it and was carried to his home,
where medical aid was summoned. who
pronounced that no bones were broken
but that the boy was badly shook up
Mr.. Mouniiy. the superintendent Of
the road. says that the boy was driv-
ing along by the side of the track and
that the horse became frightened and
stood straight up, and when he came
down the shafts struck the side of
the car breaking it in. and that caused
it to ,urn over. He did not think that
the boy was hurt much. and that he
had heard it said that the boys father
had said that he was glad that the
railroad company would not make him
pay for damages done the car.

CHANGE OF THE SABBATH.
Truth Seeker" Discusses the Differ
cnce Between Sunday and the
Sabbath.
Portsmouth, Va, June 2i,1S99.

Sabbath.
Portsmouth, Va, June 2f.1S99.
VirginianPiiot:
With reference 20 the explanation OF
the change of the Sabbath, given by
Mr.. ESglcston in to-day's issue, will
say that l very much appreciate that
gentleman's kindness. but regret eX-
ceeiinsly that no Bible authority was
given in defense of his position. 1t
has been repeatedly affirmed. as he
states. that the apostles are responsible
for the change; some say Christ Him
self; but unfortunately for that posi-
tion il does not receive the sanction of
Gods Holy Word, the standard by
which oil spiritual differences should
be adjusted. End Tim. 1916. II ''All
scripture is given by inspiration OF
God. and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof. for correction, for instruction
in righteousness: That the man of God
may be perfect, thoroughly furnished
unto all good works"
If. as Mr.. ESgleston states the Sab
bath was from the beginning of the
world, to the resurrection of Christ.
then it still is. Matt. 5:17. Think not
/ am come to destroy the law OF the
prophets; / am not come to destroy but

even unto the end Of the world. He
/ tChrisD simply confirmed after Ills re-
surrcctiOn, what he had taught during
His ministry. lie was Il Subbaitarial
during life. Where does the change
come in?
Concerning the Lords day. spoken of
in Rev. 1910 permit me to say that in
stead of the first day being referred to,
the statement has direct reference &c
the sabbath Seventh day)

ment says: "Rcmemhev the Snbbath

labor and do all thy work. but the
seventh day is the Sabbath OF the Lord
| thy God" Then if the seventh day is
the Sabbath of the Lord, the Sabbath
/ is Lords day.
In conclusion, permit me TO add that
! there is no confusion in the C;odhead

wind, so that again we had an ob1ique
view of her side, and a scene on her
main deck was brought to view. A
group of figures there moved, and in
the instant a single shape rose above
their heads and travelled up swiftly to
the main yardarm! There it seemed
to bangle for a moment, and then fell
into the motion of the ship, and swung
pendulum-like. in board and out.
1t was a time of horror, and scarce
know what we said. We had no doubt
that the man was the captain, for who
else could be executed at such a time ?
Moreover, when 1 came to look more
intently, I made out patch of white
about the upper part of his figure,
which would answer for the captains
shirt, none of the crew wearing gar
ment of that description, but only
blouses and dark tunics.
We crouched low again, and watched
the poor body as it jerked and swung.
There was a dreadful fascination in
the sight, and for one 1 could not take
my eyes from it. 1 have the thought
that the supercargo broke out a
swearing once, not loud, but as I might
say between his teeth, and that 1
laughed savagely when heard him.
The buccaneer continued to bear
down upon US, and as soon as he was
within reasonable signaling distance
Mac Ivrach took off his waistcoat and
waved it. 1t was as large distress
flag as we had, for all of US were with
out coats.

In some portions of Germany the

danced in honor of the dedication Of
the church, is now observed with the
special character of a harvest home.
