ONAASCAA HAANOPs
A clergyman wrapped in his re-
ligious studies, appearing in his
surpiice on Sunday to preach, and
knowing but little of the world, is
naturally shocked to see life as it
is, to see thousands of men to-
gether, away from home life, in
camps and barracks. They appear
to him coarse, dirty and irrelig
ious, but let him approach them
as a clergyman, as pastor, and
he will find depths Of religious
thought, religious membranes
and religious longings which would
give him far more honest and
satisfying response than his fash
ionahle- congregation could ever
That is why I ask the religious
people to stop their criticism of the
army; go to them and work with
them and among them attend their
Y. Nj c. A. meetings and keep up
their religious contact with home
influences. Send men to them, not
snivellng, weakened knownoth-
ings, but earnest religious men,
and let them write to the papers
as to what they find, and the
American people will find that
their soldiery have many more

CHEEKY pastoral visit from a min
lister. and there is nothing they
won't do to make him comfortable.

the soldiers, and not criticise,
but work with them, talk with
them, when he is sick tired and
worn out, be to him what your office
demands, and then publish what
you find
That IS why I criticise the Rev.
Peter MaeQueen, and that it why

my expects and longs for from re-
ligious men is help and sympathy;

can only interpret by offering
themselves as soldiers to- go there

He says that if MaoQueen had givenhis
convictions in dignified manner, his
reports would have received every con-
sideration by the army. His plain
duty now is to report what he knows

lowers of lightweight hangers-on whose
opinions are valueless. In conclusion,

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1899.
MAC QUEENS TRADE.

Lieut.. Benton of the Eighth United
States artillery is giving his opinions
in the public prints Of the Rev. Peter
MacQueen. Mr.. MacQueen, it will be
remembered, was stationed in Hong
Kong as missionary, and for time
bitterly attacked the national admins
tration in newspaper communications,
principally in Boston and Springfield
papers. He asserts that Admiral Dewey
said he would rather sail away from
Manila with his fleet than wage a war
of conquest against the Filipinos. In
a recent letter published only a few
weeks ago, MacQueen openly confesses
that he was not on intimate terms with
the Tagal spy at Manila Lieut.. Ben
ton denies MacQueen's assertion Of Off
cial dishonesty and corruption. He
saws:

Recovered Stolen Jewelry.

Some three years ago Mrs. I. S.
Mullins had her jewelry case stolen
from her dresser and although the
police made an effort at the time to
get at the theft their efforts prov
ed unavailing. A negro woman
was suspicioned at the time and
her belongings were searched but
nothing of the missing jewelry
could be found. Marsha Casey
has believed this woman was the
one who had the jewelry and he
has watched her closely and has
succeeded in buying from her
through confederate several
pieces of this jewelry among the
articles a diamond ring and dia-
mond earrings. There was still a
diamond brooch missing and mar
shal Casey furnished the money to
buy this from the woman but she
would not sell or had disposed OF IT
if she ever had Git. When marshal
Casey failed in buying the brooch
which Is valued at a considerable
sum, got out a search warrant and
went through the woman's trunk,
aud made a thorough search but
failed to find the brooch.
He arrested the woman, however,
on the evidence he had against
her and carried her before justice
on the charge Of grand larceny,
The justice placed her bond at $500
which she. gave. Mr.. Casey says
he will never give up the hunt for
the lost brooch,
