WITH THE "WHITE RIBBONERS. +"
Temperance Notes Gathered by Miss Annie
W. Sutton, the W. c. T. U. Press
Superintendent.

The WOman's Christian Temperance
Union of the United States has larger
membership than all the other coun-
tries of the world. Mrs. Mary H.
Hunt, w. G. T. q. Superintendent of
Scientific Temperance instruction, sta
ted in her report read before the
Worlds W. G. T. U. Convention held
in Edinburgh, Scotland, the last of
June, that "The study of Scientific
Temperance was mandatory in all
American schools except in Utah and
Georgia, and that 16, 900, 900 American
children were receiving instructions on
the subject
The next Biennial Convention of the
Worlds W. C. T. U. will in all prob
ability be held in Brooklyn, Boston,
Australia or CAPE Colony, as an invi-
tation has been received from each of
them.
The Edinburgh Convention voted
that Miss Anna Gordon, Vice-Presi-
dent of the National w. c. T. u,
"Should take the trip around the
world, which had been intended by
Miss Willard"
''By special request the executive
committee voted that Mrs. J. X. Bar
ney go to Egypt, Palestine and Syria. )"
The Christian EndeaUOr World in
its report of the recent great Conven-
ton held in London, encouragingly
stated that "The reception given to
every reference to the temperance
question during the Convention showed
that the theme was emphatically live
one."
We give few extracts from the ad-
dresses at the temperance meeting of
the Convention. ga non-abstinent
Christian Endeavorer is an anomaly, [
had almost said a monstrosity, said
the chairman of the meeting, Rev. J.
TOlefree Tarr; and the attitude of the
Christian EndeavOr Society to-day is
the attitude of the church of Jesus
Christ tomorrow"
Said Rev. Paul NJ. Strayer: ''The
temperance of the New Testament is
self-control. which means self con-
straint in what is good and self-re-
straint from what is evil. Any indul-
gence in what is evil is intemperance.
1 plead for the children. For their
sake the saloon ought to go. For
their sake every moderate drinker
ought to put away his bottle and give
himself to total abstinence. Why
should you be asked to abstain
altogether? Because you represent
Jesus Christ in His work of saving
men from all evil. If wine make my
brother stumble, will be careful not
to drink enough wine to stumble me, is
the principle of some. Put away the
unclean thing and give yourselves to
total abstinence"
''Mr. Charles Wakerly, for many
years honorary Secretary of the Band
of Hope Union, told how great leader
in the cause of pledged total abstinence
was visited by an old man who said,
"You will be pleased to know that L
am a very old obstainer'; the reply
was, 81 do not want to know how long
yOl have been an abstainer; 1 want to
know what you are doing now for the
good cause" If you are not doing all
that you can, you are not doing all
that you ought"

Chicago, always noted for its freaks
and faddists, presents the world with
the case of man who committed sui
eide that his wife might obtain the
$4,000 insurance that he had on his life.
It is quite needless to say that Chiago
will enjoy a monopoly in this line as
there is not the slightest possibility of
the fashion becoming prevalent any
whore else.

Mr.. Bryan made four stump speeches
in Nebraska on wednesday last. To

News of the details make it evident
that the taking of Pekin was sizable
able job; but the pluck of the allies
was all of the American brand and
neither weather nor Chinese could stop
them.
The late John J. ingalls, had his
faults-who has nOt-but Kansans
should see that his memory is kept
green. The State did much for him,
but he did more for the State.
There are 447 votes in the electoral
college. The party managers concede
that Bryan has 14O sure votes and Nc
Kinley 1876 sure votes. 1t is the other
III votes that will settle the business
or rather SO of them, that being the
number that Mckinley must get to
win. If Bryan can get "a of them he
can win.
Once in four years many politicians
even up personal grudges by changing
politics.
West Virginia sees Tenneesee's one
time fiddling candidate for governor
and goes one better. 1t has a candi-
date for governor, in the person of
John Holt, who not only plays the
fiddle for country audiences, but goes
into farmhouse kitchens and makes
blackberry dumplings and other good
things.
Our trade with Spain is rapidly in
creasing and will soon be larger than
it was before the Spanish war.
New York's 400 are probably not
over fond of reading anything but
scandals in their own circle, anyway;
and it is reasonably certain that they
won't heap Goals of fire on the head OF
Thomas Nelson Page, who has been
telling the truth about their foibles, by
buying his novels.
Senator Lindsay will join the Ken
tuck colony of lawyers practicing in
New York City, at the expiration of
his term. Big corporation fees are
temptations that lawyers can resist.
That even the best of things may be
OverdOne was shown by the case of the
Connecticut man who devoted so much
time to prayer that his wife had to
choose between leaving him and starv-
ing. She left.
A Philadelphia girl who played
ghost, to frighten a crowd of negroes,
is now the real thing. She was hit on
the head by brick and killed.
The 5000 cotton mill operatives in
Maine who are idle because of the
trouble in China are receiving an object
lesson on the commercial independence
of the worlds nations, for which, un-
fortunately, they have to pay by loss
of wages.
The civilized nations would better go
slow in teaching the Chinese some
things. For instance, suppose the
Chinese were as good fighters as their
neighbors, the japanese? Wouldn't
they make a heap of trouble for the
other nations?
1t is said that Congressman Allen
(''Private John,') of Miss, has de-

PRETTY JOSEPHINE
INDIGNANT WITH FATHER.
MISS PACKARD ARRIVES WITH MOTHER
IN PHILADELPHIA.
Dr.. H. w. Wilkinson Left Atlanta Wednes-
day Night With Detective McVey Direct
for Dover, Where He Must Answer.

DIR. II. NJ. Wilkinson left Atlanta for
Dover Wednesday night under escort
of Detective McVey, thus putting an
end to the Atlanta chapter of the story
of the Dover elopement case. For sew
eral days DR.. Wilkinson had been
awaiting the arrival of the detective
with impatience and was rapidly get
ting to the pass where he did not care
what happened to him. This spirit of
apathy was visible when he was asked
if he would return to Dover without a
requisition. To this proposition he
returned ready assent, and left with
Detective McVey. He seemed willing
to return to Dover and face it, desiring
to get this trouble off his hand as
Guickly as possible and then locate in
some Western State. He believes it
will be an easy matter to obtain di-
vorce and marry his sister-in-law. The
confinement at Atlanta told upon him.
and he looks wan and hollow-eyed.
PackardS in Philadelphia.
When Miss Packard arrived in Phila-
delphia after journey from Atlanta
they were driven to iii Walnut street
where a suite of rooms had been en-
gagged in advance for them, after Mr..
Packard had left Dover and join them,
they all registered as: "Mr. Jones,
Mrs. Jones and Miss Jones of Pitts
burg"
Mrs. We'll, who conducts a very ex-
elusive boarding-house at the address,
was given to understand that the Jones
family was made up of invalids, who
wished accommodations for a short
time while undergoing examinations
at the hands of a noted specialist in
nervous diseases.
A horde of alleged specialists, de-
tectives, friends and relatives followed
in their wake. They came in pairs,
trios and small punches. After a few
hours there was lull in the excitement
and the page at the door had few
moments rest. Then one man ar
rived. That was "Jones of Pittsburg." :"
The thing had become farce, but the
arrival of Jones introduced a bit of
realism not down on the road.
Miss Jones cut loose and told Mr..
Jones what she thought of him. 1t
was this outburst of temper that adver-
tised to everybody in the house that
'Miss Jones of Pittsburg" was really
Miss Josephine Packard of Dover, who
had few thousand words to say to her
father, and was saying them at the rate
of 200 words a minute. The father
was unable to get in word. She ac-
cused HIM of pretty nearly everything
short of murder and wound up by say
ing that he was about to put her in an
insane asylum, and that the physician
who had examined her earlier in the
day had been hired to deprive her of
her liberty.
