ZEAL VERSUS FANATICIsM

AS REGARDS RESOLUTION OF
WILMINGTON CONFERENCE CEN
SURFING PRESIDENT FOR DRINK
ING.
Zeal for reform is one thing and ia
naticism is another and quite differ
ent thing. The truth of this was dem
onstrated at the closing session Of the
Wilmington M. E. Conference, Tues
day, in the defeat Of a proposed resolu-
tion censuring President Mckinley for
drinking wine. The temperate COM
mon sense of the members Of the con-
ference rebuked an inexcusable display
Of political prejudice posing in the
garb of temperance reform. The credit
of this cOmmendable action is largely
due to Rev. r. II. Adams ID. D., VINO
by quoting the confessed intent Of the
mover of the resolution exposed that
intent in a naked ugliness that made
it appear contemplate. Such exposures
are always helpful in reform work, and
this one must be gratifying to every
true advocate Of temperance reform.
The intent of the mover of this reso-
luton was to discredit and defeat the
reelection Of President Mckinley, and
prejudice Of man who differed with
the president in political opinion. Such
things are common in ordinary poll
tics. They are certainly not commend
able even then. In church politics they
are inexcusably little and narrow, and
when the proved intent Of such an at
temptsas lnat ofTuesday is entirely for
eign to the cause which It pretends tc
promote, II brings reproach upon its ad-
vocates and seriously Injuries the cause
Sincerity is absolutely necessary in q
reformer. He must not only be sincere
in his zeal, but broad-minded and
truthful Even reformers have no right
to drive people by prescription. and
insult, to acceptance of and obedience
to rules of action which do not appeal
TO their judgment. On this line we re-
call the sermon of Bishop Andrews, at
Grace Church during the conference
session eight years ago. In preaching
to the members of conference he made
allusion to this very question of tenn
perance in connection with other things
about which the ministers would be
called on to preach. He reminded them
that there was such a thing as per-
sonal judgment and responsibility to
which the laity were entitled and which
they must accept. That while the
preacher must preach temperanee-foT
the things endorsed by the church. and
against the things condemned by it-ii
was not within their province to CON-
pei either the acceptance of their
views Of those things. nor to compel
obedience to rules which they might
make.
I'VE think this is apropOs to the in
cident under consideration. 1t certain
" gives reasonable direction for church
temperance work, and is applicable tc
temperance politics which are largely
promoted by the clergy. This confer
ence incident is indicative Of its con-
trary direction. It indicates a lack OF
both sincerity and judgment, as well as
disposition toward autOcratic authority
This is where our temperance reform
ers are mistaken: their zeal makes ol
them moral Nihilists. disposed to not
only invade the domain of private
. judgment and override personal lib
crty. but to tear down the better tC
the profit Of the worse. Sun.

JENNY I1ND's VICTORY
HOW THE GREAT DIVA CON-
QUERED HER ENVIOUS RIVAL

HOW THE GREAT DIVA CON-
QUERED HER ENVIOUs RIVAL
A beautiful little incident is told
concerning Jenny Lind and Grisi when
they were rivals for popular favor in
London. Both were invited to sing
the same night at a court concert be-
fore the queen. Jenny Lind, being the
younger. sang first, and was disturbed
by the fierce. scornful look of Grisi
that she was at the point Of failure,
when, suddenly an inspiration came to
her. The accompanist was striking his
final chords. She asked him to rise
and took the vacant seat. Her fingers
wandered over the keys in a loving
prelude, and then she sang a little
prayer which she had loved as a child.
She hadn't sung it for years. AS she
sang she was no longer in the presence
Of royalty, but singing TO loving
friends in her fatherland
Softly at first the plaintive notes
fioated on the air, swelling louder and
richer every moment The singer
seemed to throw her whole soul into
that weird, thrilling. plaintive
prayer" Gradually the song died
away and ended in a sob There was
silence-the silence Of admiring Won
der. The audience sat spellbound.
Jenny Lind lifted her sweet eyes to
look into the scornful face that had so
disconnected her. There was no fierce
expression now; instead a teardrOp
glistened on the long black lashes, and
after a moment. with the impulsive-
ness of a child of the tropics, Grisi
crossed to Jenny Lind's side, placed
her arm about her and kissed her, ut
terly regardless of the audience.

Proper Baking.

The delicacy Of pastry depends as
much upon the baking as the making.
therefore strict attention should be
paid to the following directions:
Puff paste requires n quick oven
heat; a hot oven would curl the paste
and scorch It.
Tart paste or short paste requires a
degree less of heat. For raised or light
crust the oven may be heated as for
puff paste.

LIVING IN THE STONE AGE.
A New Eskimo Tribe Has
Just Been Found.
ALL DEADTO THE WORLD

They Live Just as They Did When
They Emigrated From, Nobody
Knows Where-They Speak an Un-
known Dialect-Remarkable People.
On a big island in Hudson's Bay
hitherto unknown tribe Of Eskimo has
been found.
Whalers discovered them, and the
authorities at the Museum Of Natural
History in New York, hearing the
news, sent Captain G. Cromer to in.
yestigate them.
Until the last few months these peo.
pie had never seen a white man. The
island which they inhabit is called
Southampton Island, and is almost rs
large as the State Of Maine. 1t is at
the northwestern end of HudsOn's
Bay. For centuries this tribe has not
had the slightest communication with
other Eskimo. When discovered they
were still living in the stone age, and
knew no metals until they We're intro.
duced within n year by visiting whal-
ers, and to-day they live just as they
did when they first emigrated-from
no one knows where. Their residence
probably antedates the discovery Of
America by Columbus.
They speak n dialect different from
that of any other known tribe. Their
huts are built Of the skulls and jaws
of whales. covered over with skins Of
animals. Snow huts are the fashion
among other Eskimo.
In the middle of their primitive
dwelling stands the stone lamp Galsed
little from the ground which lights
the home, heats it, cooks the food
serves for melting snow. drying
clothes and the perfecting Of some Of
their weapons and implements.
Among the Greenland Eskimo this
lamp is followed out Of soapstone. but
on Southampton Island the lamp is
made of a fat piece of limestone,
around the edge of which narrow
pieces Of limestone are glued. Their
pots are made of the same material,
one slab serving as the bottom and
four others for the ends and sides Of
the Queerest square pot ever made.
The glue is made Of deer's blood,
grease and fish roe. One glance at the
inside of one of these pots lined with
this pitchy mass is enough to take
away a white mans appetite for a
week.
Into the limestone lamp, which is an
oval, a foot or so wide and about two
inches deep, is put oil from whale blub-
Der. The wick is a piece of moss. The
pot is placed over the lamp on a sup
port, on which hangs a piece of blub.
Der which melts from the heat and
feeds the lamp continually.
The dress Of these people also differs
in design from that Of other Eskimo
The women's clothing is made of the
skin of the reindeer.
The members of this tribe live to
gether by fishing and hunting, the
whale being the chief article of diet

with Clipped fints, as well as their
arrows and spears. The ingenuity

Whalebone serves them for weapons

es are of walrus tusks as runners
and with deer's antlers as crosspieces

he is well thought of here by both

gard him as a gentleman and rail-
