JOHN ADAMS LOoklNG-GLASS.

Washington Cor. st. Louis Post-Dls-
patch: There is being preserved IN the
rooms of the senate committee OF the
District Of Columbia a historical relic,
the value Of which succeeding years
rapidly enhances.
It is a mirror, purchased by John
Adams, the first vice president, and
adorned the vice presidents room at the
senate until it ceased to be in keeping
with the more modern furnishings, not
w~ithstanding the fact that the senate at
the time regarded $40 as a most eXtrava-
CANT price to pay for a looking-glass.
1t was placed in a closet of the vice
presidents rooms and later relegated to
the basement, where it was discovered
by a clerk Of the district committee, who
appreciated it's historical value and had
it hung in the committee room.

cOpal church, delivered an address
yesterday at p. m. at Nay Aug park
to large audience upon The Re
demption of the Negro" He said in
part:
Just why the African negro remained
"a barbarian or a heather, while other
race varieties have gone forward through
the ages from heaIhenism to Christian
ity and from saVagcry to civilization.
cannot be fully explained, because it
cannot he fully understood. There are
many who believe that in the great
drama of humanity, each race has been
assigned its part, and that the negro
race is the oldest of all races, and long,
long ago, enacted it's part as the leading
race and has since lapsed into its pres
ent condition.
This view is stoutly defended by many
Of the most prominent negro scholars
of America. 1t makes no difference to
these sturdy men that history and mod
ern opinion is against them. They are
swayed by passion; they believe that it
somehow ennobles the race IT,, to it's re-
motcst ancestors, can be attributed the
glOries of ancient Egypt. They do not
see that, to follow their theory to its
logical conclusion, they simply say that
the negro race is a played out actor on
the stage, that its glory is in the past
and that it has no future.
The young negroes ara taught to be
licve that somewhere in antiquity the
negro was the leader of mankind i'm civ
ilization. To deny this view, is to at
tack 81 cherished and beloved belief and
to draw down lpon ones self many "a
curse. Bishop II. NJ. Turner, D. D.. LIZ.
D.. senior bishop of the African Meth
odist Episcopal church as well as the
greatest defender of the negro in this
country, stands out against the current
opinions and boldly asserts an exactly
opposite belief.
lie says THAT the negro race is the
junior race. that has not yet played its
part but that its glory Is of the future.
not in the past" lie does not interpret
the prophecy that Ethiopia shall stretch
forth her hands to mean that the negro
shall become a bcggar, as many mis-
sionaries have so eloquently represented.
lie believes that the figure refers to a
man in race putting forth vigorous
effort to get to the front and that the
promise is that Ethiopia shall awaken
and set out to win first place among the
peoples of the world This kind of gos-
pei is fun of hope and inspira ton and
has history. science. modern opinion and
present facts all in its favor. The brown
race has had its day.
The ruddy race is having it's day and
the black race is lust getting ready to
go on the stage to enact It's part and
then will come the fusion of races for
which Christ played when he said: Tint
they also may he one in us" This theory
is the only working theory that can be
sustained. There Is hope I'm this theory.
The negro is not "a perishing race" but
"a rising race" he is not languishing in
hCathen darkness but he Is rushing
into the glorious light

around and filled up thrcc-fourths of
the doorway, and looked over the
heads Of the rest of the people who
wanted to go up. The young fellow
stepped back, took the measure of the
hlg bully and said:
DO you think you are the only one
who wants to ride in this elevator?"
The big man glared at him sluggish
ly, but said nothing.

straight, slender. consumptive- looking

huu need it as much as any one know
of-and you are a little past due"
The rest Of the people were delighted.
They had suffered so often from the
Door that they were secretly and sill
emily encouraging the heroic champion
They could see, in fancy, that slender
arm with muscles of steel leap from
the side, the knuckles as hard as iron,
land with a practised directrcss on
the ugly face of the hig man. How
noble II would be with the little giant
standing triumphant over the pros
trate and bleeding body of the bully
who had troubled every one. The ele-
Vator man started to slam the door.
The passengers thrilled, for the crucial
moment had come. There was a move
ment on the part of the big man. His
challenger started quickly, nervously,
as if picking out the place where he
would land his avengirg blow
And then the big man reached out,
caught the slender fellow by the shoul-
der, brought him into the car and hung
him up by the belt on a tuliplike pro-
lection in the iron grillw0rk on the
cage. But he did not say a word.

DR.. j. G. Bateson delivered "A highly
interesting and instructive eddrcss last
evening in the Dudley street Baptist
church, Dunmore, taking as his sub
ject Faith and Medicine"
The feature of his address was an
argument that many of the passages
of Scripture dealing with healing"
which are generally taken to mean
physical healing, should not be read
literally, but interpreted to mean
spiritual healing" He said, in sub
stance:
I'm current Jewish thought at the
time of Christ the symbolism of death
was applied to those who were dead
in sim" blindness was applied to de-
ficiency of spiritual vision. lameness to
spiritual inactivity 1t was said in the
coming ages the saints shall raise the
dead as Elias did What dead? The
converted or proselytes? The language
of Jesus continues this Jewish usuage:
Let the dead bury their dead. The
dead shall hear the voice of the Son
of God
Hence. we virtually infer that when
He said to the twelve. Raise the dead
He meant make converts The pro-
cess of transating the Gospel from
Eastern metaphor and poetry into
Greek prose might easily give rise to
the idea of miracles where no miracle
was intended Thus we find parallel
passages saying that Jesus healed
while another says that he taught
which suggests that the healing is a
misunderstanding of work intended
to mean spiritual healing or teach
Ing (See Matt. 1414, also Mark, 6:34
compare Mark, 1O:1 with Matt 1929
I'm the parable of the sower. in Isa..
6:9-1O, Matthew has lest I should heal
them Mark lest their sins should be
forgiven Heal the sick; freely ye
have received, freely give As they
had freely received spiritual life, so
they were to imoart it. Evidently it
was not literal disease they were to
cure.
Thus we may infer that when great
multitudes were spoken of as healed at
one time it was spiritual cure that was
effected. The healing miracles We're
numerous enough to confirm Christ's
claims to divinity, but not so numer-
Gus as to overshadow His spiritual
purpose.
THE New Testament nowhere teaches
that any shall be healed of disease
simply by faith. Even Paul did not
get rid of the thorn in the flesh, but
received instead My grace is sufficient
for thee"
"All healing Is divine for II is pro-
cess or law created by God and not
by physicians.
III Ecclesiasticus is written more
than two thousand years ago the fol-
lowing Instructions.
1.-THE Lord hath created medicines
out of the earth. And he that is wise
will not abhur them. My son. in thy
sickness be not negligent but pray
unto the Lord that he will make thee
whole. Leave off from sin and order
they hands Alright. and cleanse they
heart from wickedness. Then give
place to the physician for thou hast
need of him There is a time when
in their hands there is good success.
For they shall also pray unto the
Lord. that he would prosper that which
they give for ease and to pTolOng life
Jesus said the sick need a physician.
Then let us not despise the testimony
of Him who is the way, the truth and
the life.
