Colonies may be shot with impunity

THE WORTH Of 4 Man. :
A LECTURE BY PROF. JOHN. r. ID.
JOHN AT CHAPLINE STREET
NJ. z. CHURCH.
He SPOKE EL0oUENTLY
And Gave Some Excellent Arguments.
Thought That the Overwhelming
Greatness of Man Lies in His Pos
sibilities-A Fact In Connection
With Sin.

A large audience greeted John P. D.
John, d. D., LII. D.. of DePaaw, Uni
versity, who delivered lecture upon
the subject THE Worth OF Man."
at the Chapline Street NJ. E. Church
last evening. He spoke eloquently
with reference to measuring the great
ness of man and his remarks were lis
tened to with profound interest by
those present.
In his opening remarks the lee
turer very explicitly portrayed that
a man limited by duration and space
is but a speck in the universe and
that man limited by law is as help
less as a brute. He was of the opin-
ion that man limited by physical law
is as helpless as the atoms that COM
pose his body.
Throw into the flames" he said, a
rock, a flower, horse and a man,
and each will disappear quickly from
the effects of the heat" He also
thought that man, limited by spiritual
law is helpless. There are no excep-
tions in the realm of spiritual law
and a pay day comes to every sin
ner.
Mr.. John then cited some very ex-
cellent instances of the contrast be-
tween the outward or visible and the
inward or invisible acts of man. show
ing that the Brightness of right and the
wrongness of wrong forever remain
unchanged.
1.-THE terrific fact in connection with
SIM said Mr.. John, lis that it can
not be undone. A fact is fact for
ever One short act of sin will clip
the wings of the soul. After all is he
limited or does he sometimes become
the limiter " Turning attention to
the greatness of man the speaker log
ically argued that man is greater than
the sun because the sun cannot remem-
Der, cannot think, cannot judge. A
man limiting the universe or a man
limiting space is supremely great
Space is greater than man, but it is
significant, when measured by his
greatness.
He also maintained that law is the
servant of man and argued that while
fever kills and that is law, the physi-
clan puts out the fires of the disease.
The overwhelming greatness of man
lies in his possibilities. Continuing
he asked who are the skeptics that are
laughing at Moses Who is Moses-
While the critics are sneering and the
skeptics are laughing, Moses is march
ing triumphantly on to power that
surmounts power and glory that
crowns glory.
Mr. John concluded by remarking
that we think that heat and light is
force, but l know that my soul is a
force. Science says that forces are
indestructible. The soul Of man is the
greatest force upon the earth and the
soul is immortal.

CORPSE WAS DRESSED
IN ANOTHER'S CLOTHES.
Express Agent Mistake Leads to Re-
markable Complications.
Two Men of Same Name In st. Ciairs-
viIIe-One Was IA Corpse, and His
Widow Thought the Suit Was
Present-Now the other Demands "A
Suit of Clothes.

The mistake of the United States
Express Company agent at ST. Glars
vile in delivering a package to the
wrong person has resulted in remark
able complications. A suit of clothes.
consigned to another, is now worn by
a man who is buried, and the person
to whom the package was consigned is
demanding his clothing.
1t appears that ST. ClairsvilIe man
bought suit in the clothing depart
ment of House & Herrmann's establish
ment. Alterations were to be made
and the firm agreed to send the suit
by express. 1t was properly marked
and carried by the United States Ex-
press Company. 1t happened, however.
that there were two parties of the same
name in St. Clairsville.
The express agent delivered the pack
age to a house which had crepe upon
the door. The head of the family was
dead. The widow was surprised to re-
ceive the package, but as it was plain
ly marked with her husbands name
she concluded that some kind friend
had sent the suit OF clothes to be worn
by the deceased when he was prepared
for burial. Accordingly the dead man
was wrapped in the new suit and the
following day was buried.
Meanwhile the purchaser of the suit
became impatient over the delay in the
arrival of his package, and wrote to
the firm, which in turn called upon the
express company to make an investiga-
ton. This brought to light the re-
markable state OF affairs narrated
above.
The express company has asked
House & Hermann to make an effort
to collect the money for the suit from
the widow Of the deceased, but the firm
very properly insists that the respons-
Utility rests with the express company.

HORRIBLY BURNED.
A Bridgeport Woman Meets With an
Awful Accident and Narrowly Es-
capes Death.

A Bridgeport Woman Meets With an
Awful Accident and Narrowly Es-
capes Death.
Mrs. Albert Secrest, of Bridgeport,
was seriously burned yesterday morn
ing in a peculiar way. She was clean
ing up the yard and had raked UP a
quantity of weeds and set fire to Them
and while working around the blaze
the back of her dress caught fire and
was in large blaze before she became
aware of it. 1t is said a man passing
called her attention to it and ran to her
assistance, but the woman became so
excited that she ran to her mother-in-
laws, short distance away, and jump
ed into a tub of water, as the family
were washing.
The fire was extinguished, but the
woman was horribly burned and her
recovery was considered doubtful last
evening. DR.. Wagner was called and
rendered medical aid. Her limbs and
back and back of the head suffered the
most. Nearly all of the hair on her
head was burned off and her suffering
was intense. The family moved here
from Louisville only a short time ago,

Three Little Lambs.
Three Little Lambs" which for
want of better name the author has
termed musical comedy, was given
its initial presentation in this city
last night, and scored complete sue
cess. 1t is potpourri of dramatic
and musical novelties, and has the
rare merit of freshness and original
ity. There is an abundance of wit
and repartee, many humorous situa-
lions, and the music is of bright
and catchy order. The smallness of
the stage prevented the display of
some sets which would have embel-
lished the scenes, but this was over
looked in the general excellence of the
performance. The company is large,
and embraces more than an ordinary
number who have parts" The cast
was strong and well balanced. The
audience completely filled the house
and was very appreciatiye.
