Horrors of India's Famine.

Rev. Rockwell Clancy, a mis-
sionary at Allahabad, who is Wis
iting relatives in Medford, Mass,
in an interview this week ON the
famine in India said in part:
The condition of famine strick-
en- India today is something aw-
full to contemplate. / cannot tell
anything about the number dy-
ing, but when | left Bombay last
February there were some co.
100000 people suffering and over
30,000,000 were in dire distress
and of these but 100000 were
receiving government aid.
"When the famine set in the
people began to sell everything
they had that they might get u
little grain for food. They took
the doors from their houses and
sold them; sold their furniture
and farming utensils and then
when they no longer had any
thing to sell they sold their chill,
dren. The boys don't sell well
and the traffic is largely in girls.
81 saw girls in one town just
before [ came away being sold
for thirty cents piece. But
they Won't buy the boys, so when
the parents can no longer sup
port their children they abandon
them.

A SHOT GUN TRAGEDY.

John Grove, aged Is years, son
of John Grove, a blacksmith at
Indian Springs, over the Mary
land county line in Washington
county, says the Valley Spirit,
was shot in the head by Rieff
Kline, aged Is years, Saturday
evening. Death ensued ten min
utes after the shooting. Kline
claims it was accidental. Satur-
day evening a number of boys
and young men, including Grove
and Kline, were in front of the
blacksmith shop. Leonard For
sythe, aged 20 years, stopped on
his way home from a hunting ex
pedition in the mountains. He
had with him double -barrelled
muzzle-loading shot gun. The
weapon was picked up and one
load fired off by Charles Renner,
who lives near the blacksmith
shop. He attempted to fire off
the other load, but the cap was
defective and the gun was not
discharged. The gun was then
placed against the shop. In the
meantime Grove passed around
the shop and appeared inside a
paling fence. 1t is alleged Kline
picked up the gun and, pointing
it toward where Grove was stand
ing, pulled the trigger and dis-
charged the piece. Grove fell to
the ground with a moan. The
load took effect in the left side of
his face and head. A jury Of in
quest was held before Justice
Houck at Clear Spring, and upon
the verdict of the jury Kline was
arrested. He is in the Hagers-
town Jail.

No other city north of the Ma

Chambers, whose descendants
are still residents of the city, it

progress of civilization westward; {;

THE INTEREST in MISSIONS

The attendance, the public at
tention, the space given in the
public press and the distinguish
ed audiences gathered from
President Mckinley and EXPIRES
ident Harrison down at the New
York missionary conference, are
a sufficient proof of the general
interest taken il missions by the
American public and a sufficient
answer to the frequent assertion
that this interest is decreasing.
1t is not. All signs unite to
show that the interest and sup.
port of the churches for Chris
tian missions, not only grows in
volume but increases in iutelli-
gence. The unfounded impress
sion that what are known as lib
eral views in theology would de-
crease interest in missions should
be dissipated by the evidence fur
nished by the present missionary
conference. Such a decrease in
interest was doubtless expected
by those who imagine that the
motive of saving the heathen
from punishment is the nerve Of
missions, instead of the desire to
save them from sin.
The first, if not an unworthy
motive, is certainly narrow by
the side of the second. 1t was
not primarily because the early
missionaries who founded mod
ern missions a century ago be-
lieved in the future punishment
of the heathen that they began
their noble work, but because
they had a vital and vivid concep-
ton of their sinfulnesS, their es-
arrangement from righteousness
and their separation from the di-
vine will and plan for a redeemed
race and for their sinfulneSs,
their estrangement and their en-
nifty with the divine will, all mis-
sionaries from Paul on have be-
lieved they had a remedy and re-
demption.
1t was the need Of this and not
the escape from punishment
which moved Paul and inspired
his preaching and this conception
was never stronger than to-day.
1t has been quickened by the sci
entitic spirit, and by all the elevat-
ing and advancing conceptions of
the ineXorable and inevitable
moral order of the universe, and
of the duty and necessity of ev-
cry human being to aid every 9th
er human being to life free
from imperfection, which is at
the foundation of modern philan-
thropy This is the true spirit
Of missions.

Floods in the lower Mississippi
Valley take destructive toll every
spring, and the damage this year
is already startling in the aggre-
gate. In April the lower Miss
issippi Valley is a vast inland
fresh water sea, through which
the main channel meanders in
sinuous and elusive windings.
The adjacent cities can be pro-
tected, but to save the rural dis
tricts Is an attempt as vain as to
sweep back old ocean with Il
broom.
The Detroit presbytery, in ses-
sion at Holly, Michigan, last week
adopted an overture to the Pres
byterian general assembly, say
ing: "rhe time has come to form
ulate a short creed for use in our
churches without seeking to alter
or do away with the time honored
Westminster Confession of Faith
This creed should be irenical rath
er than polemical, emphasizing
those doctrines generally known
as evangelical, and believed and
preached by the Presbyterian
church. We respectfully ask
that the general assembly initiate
some other action in the matter. T"
None are satisfied. One man
is struggling to get justice, some
other is flying from it. One man
is trying to build a home, another
is trying to sell his building for
less than it cost, to get rid of it.
One man is spending all that he
earns in taking his girl to the
theatre, in hopes of eventually
making her his wife, while his
neighbor is spending all the gold
he has to get a divorce. The
eastern man wants to go west
and the western man wants to go
east. The farmer wants to go in
to the city and the city man
wants to go into the country.
The man in trade wants to get
out and everybody not in trade
wants to be. The old want to be
young and the young want to be
old.
