seventy eight years old. at the Methodist.

Lehigh Avenue, on yesterday, and Coroner
Dugan. at the inquest over her remains
roundly condemned this new-fangled fan
tastic creed.'' The jury leund that Miss
Nulish had died CT old age and Bright's
disease, but that she had aggravated these
ills by refusing the aid Of a physician and
abstatning from food. relying almost who'll
ly upon prayer for her bodily sustenance.
The coroner and jury also learned the
more startling fact that a dozen other old
women at the Methodist Home have been
so influenced by faith curist as TO adopt
similarly dangerous tactics. These aged
inmates belief in the power of faith ex-
tends even to the question of food and
they gravely announced that half hour
upon their knees by the bedside will do
them more good than the best meal ever
prepared.
Mrs. NJ. ]. Cheseboro, matron of the
home, said yesterday:
The managers of this home have taken
action to check any further spread of faith
cure doctrines among the inmates. A cer-
tain clergyman seems to be the cause of
the trouble. He has been here frequently
praying with and talking TO our people.
l have admitted him frequently myself,
and thought there was nothing out of the
way, as l knew he was a minister. Now,
however, l am confronted with a grave
problem. There are several old ladies here
who have announced their determination
to refuse all medical aid in the future and
to depend solely upon prayer. One or two
of them are i'll, and I wish l knew some
way to influence them.

If there is one thing which is becoming
more and more evident to every thinking
person as time goes on, 1T is the increas-
ing and absolute dependence of the men,
bers Of modern community upon each
other Modern Improvements make life
easier and happier and more comfortable
in multitudinous ways, but they do not
tend to make the people of the present
time Independent Of one another; very
cause of great many of the difficulties
Of our day-not democracy, or politics, or
that old Satan who has been blamed for
so much of the evil in the world. Man has
more power than ever before to make
trouble for his fellow-man, under certain
conditions, and is less able, by curious
paradox. to defend himself under certain
other conditions; and the result Is in
creased sharpness of competition and COM
bat; but, on the whole, less suffering than
existed in other times
We had an illustration of this during the
blizzard of last winter. II famine had
existed in this city under any ordinary
circumstances, it could not have lasted a
day, before, by all improved means of
communication, huge consignments of food
would have been hurrying toward the city
But the very facility of transportation
which created this condition made 1t pos
sible that there might be an actual famine
when the roads were blocked. Before the

Where is the Miss Jewett who will hunt

Improbable?
We need hardly say that the oracles are
dumb, the pleaders are silent. the gifted
editors are scratching their heads with the

pleading the cause of men who have at
tackled the flag on the other side of the
world, and the sensitive and ,tender-hearted
philanthropists have concluded not to pay
attention to scandals that occur within ear
shot. Even the writers of sensational
headlines, as we have seen, take day
off when Northern race hatred turns loose
its instruments of assassination; but what

would have been made over the Illinois out
