Small Gold Bricks.

A correspondent writes to the Spring
field Republican from Montague, Mass,
under date of August 9, telling how women
in that village bought small gold bricks:
A woman, calling herself Mrs. f.. Thomas,
an advance agent from the Standard man
ufacturing company in New FORK city, Wis
tied Montague village the last week in
July, seeking workers 10 do fancy work at
home. She showed various departments of
work that could be followed, and said the
firm paid good, fair prices for all work
done. Each woman was 10 choose her de
partment, receive 50 worth Of material by
express the next week and in about 10 days
the agent with a teacher would come and
spend a week in the village, giving iDstruc-
tions in the work. A printed agreement
was given each person, and this TO be
signed by the teacher on completion Of
lessons. To secure the firm, the agent col
lected 50 from each victim one-half the
cost Of material. The agent formed class
es in groups of five, gave date and time of
lessons and engaged boarding place. "No,
you will not get rich" she remarked to one
woman, "but you will receive honest pay
for honest work" The time has passed
and no material, agent or teacher has APP
peared. 1t is only another case of how
some people live by their wits. Let this
be warning to any who are liable TO be
so deceived.

VIII II. Moody.


Seldom is young man pushed into the
front of affairs so prominently and sudden
ly as Will r. Moody, the son Of the great
evangelist, d. L. Moody, has been. The
burden Of great work has been placed
upon him in way that nothing but the
closest and most intelligent interest in his
fathers affairs could warrant, and moth
ing can account for the success that has
thus far followed his labors but that early
sense OF responsibility and partnership
which his father was careful to lay upon
him.
will Revell Moody WIS born in 1869 in
Mortified, Mass, al d spent the earlier
years of his life amcng the hills of that
historic old town, doubly historic from the
fact that there the lifelong labors of his
father centred. viii attended Mt. Her
mon, the school founded by his father,
from which he was graduated in 1887.
The following year he entered Yale and
graduated in 1891. In 1892 he visited
Alaska and toured in the West, ultimately
going to Europe where he spent some time,
remaining in Germany for further study.
On his return TO America he entered the
Fleming II. Revell publishing house in
Chicago, of which his uncle, Fleming II.
Revell, is the head. Here he acquired
some Of the experience necessary to the
editing and managing of the Record of
Christian Work, which he has since devel-
oped from pamphlet form to a monthly
magazine Of so pages, representing the in
terests centering at Mortified, including
the summer conferences.
In 1894 Mr.. Moody married Miss Mary
White, the daughter Of his fathers life
ong friend and helper, Major d. w.
White. Mrs. Moody, by her grace, her
accomplishments, her beautiful and sym
pathetic voice, which she has used gladly
TO assist in her fathers, and later Mr.
Moody's, work, above all by her deep con-
secration to God and her devotion to her
husband and home, has enshrined herself
deep in the hearts of all who know her,
and has proved a splendid helpmeet in the
home at Mortified.
In 1894 Mr.. Moody was elected secre-
tary of Mt Hermon school, in which ca
pacity he served for four years, during
which time he made his home at Mt. Her
mon. Always closely associated with his
father In his work, acquainted with all his
plans for the growth of the Mortified
schools, it was eminently fitting that he
should be chosen as the one TO look after
the interests of Mt. Hermon, which has
been placed, by his fathers express desire,
under mis- care.
The life of d. l.. Moody, which has re-
Gently been given to the world by Mr.
w. r. Moody, is work of considerable
merit, showing deep appreciation Of his
fathers methods and Thorough under
standing Of his life and work. 1t is ably
and acceptably written and has already
had large sale.
What Mr.. Moody has done thus far can
not be questioned. III has but come forth
from the shade Of his fathers greatness
and his life is before him. Taking his
future in the light of the present we should

Gen. Hector MacDonald's occupation of
Harrismith August 4, virtually completes
the subsection of the eastern Orange River
Colony and re-opens the Ladysmith Harri-
smith railroad through Van Reenan's Pass
through the Drakensberg mountains. This
will facilitate whatever further operations
may be necessary in this quarter, since this
railroad, when put in working order, will
give the British an advanced base at Harri-
smith, drawing by rail on the military de-
pots at LadysmithI and Durham. Hereto

Saturday, Sundayand Monday. From the
retreating sounds of battle it is guessed ut
Rustenburg and Pretoria that Darlington

time to save the garrison and drive the
Beers back toward Zeerust.
There is an insistent report in Pretoria
that Kruger is weary of war and waits
only for satisfactory terms as to his future
domicile to surrender. Great Britain will
scarcely permit the Boer leader to remain
in South Africa, and Kruger must know
that negotiations on that point are hopeless.
The road for his escape into Portuguese ter
ritory is open, but he seems not yet to have
been driven to the necessity of becoming
an exile Lord Roberts does not mention
any negotiations, and the story very likely
is camp rumor.

Women are even more subject to ca

Acknowledgement OF the Blacks.

TTVTII IIIV IIIVIaHHT VIIs .NVWF.T
No part of the phenomenon of this gen
eral movement in the South to disfranchise
the black man is more marked than the
apathy with which it has been received IN
the North. The proposition a quarter of
century ago would have been sufficient
TO start another war. The black man was
the ward Of the nation. His rights were
the sacred charge of the country, the out
ward and visible sign of the victory of the
civil war. That the ignorant black man
was untitled for suffrage, the North is per-
haps willing to admit now. The history
that records the carnival of carpetbagism in
the South cannot be wiped out, and it may
be quoted in justification of the reign of
disorder and blOodshed that followed, by
which intimidation practically nulllfed the
law and secured government to the whites

A correspondent of the New York Sun
who claims to have watched the records of
drowning accidents for several years re-
minds bathers that nine-tenths of the per-
sons who frequent the seashore hail from
inland towns and are familiar with streams
free from tides. For several years past
he says, have made careful study of
this subject, and have found, with one or
two exceptions, that every person who has
been drowned has gone in the water on an
ebb tide. The accident, where fatal, has
been charged to the strong undertow or
sea-puss. AS matter of fact, the person
who has thus sacrificed his or her life has
been ignorant of the tides. If
the ordinary bather, instead of venturing
into the water haphazard at any hour of
the day that suits his convenience, would
regulate his hours in such way that he
would battle during the last hour of the ebb
tide or the first or second hour of the food
tide, he would remove all risks of losing
his life.

Gen. Macarthur Supreme Ruler.
Combined Civil and Military Govern

ment I'm the Philippines Beginning
sept. L.
Maj. Gen. Macarthur will divide his
power in the Philippines on Sept. with the
Taft commission. The administration pur
poses TO inaugurate policy of combined
military and civil government ON the date
mentioned. Gen. Macarthur will be the
supreme head of the islands and the com
mission will be coordinate with him, the
one being the executive branch of the Phil
ipines government and the other the legisla-
tive branch.
The commission will sit in Manila, and
its jurisdiction will extend all over the is
lands. AS explained Monday by high Off
cial of the government, all that section of
Gen. MacArthur's work which may be CON
sidered as of legislative character will be
transferred to it.
For instance, it will make such rules and
regulations as may be needed for the estab-
lishment of civil government, and which
may be amendatory of the order issued ON
the subject by Maj Gen. Otis. If it sees
fit, it can amend the orders relating to mar
riage and divorce, prescribing rates of duty
and administration of private schools. 1t
will have certain powers in the matter of
appointment to office, particularly in schools
One of the first acts will be to issue an order
establishing civil service law.
1t is not proposed that the commission
shall establish civil government, except at
such points where the military situation ad p
mits of such a condition. 1t will cooper
ate with the military to assure the natives
of the United States purpose and to treat
them with consideration. Fear is express
ed, however, that the insurgents will urge
the few Chinese to continue their resist
ance and to pay no attention to the state
ments of the commission.
