that so intense fire could burn so long

Mr.. E. w. Sargent, speaking as a par
ishioner, said: when DIR. Sunderland died
there was a death in every household of
this church. For fifty years he had min

WONT PRAY FOR the SICK.
RIchmond Preacher Says lie Cannot DO So Con
sistentiy n Physicians Are Employed.

RICHMOND, Va, April a The Rev John W.
Daugherty. d d, pastor OF the Fulton Apos-
tolic Church Of this city, and his large con-
gregation. have come TO the conclusion that
medicine and Christianity are not compa lble.
The official organ OF the church Is tho Ever
ldsting GOSPEL and In its columns to-day DR..
Daugherty says
ITO our way of thinking medicine and
Christianity are opposed TO each other. and
are utterly beyond reconciliation 1t Is a
continual stumbling block to faith, and Is
frequently the cause OF painful failure on
the part Of those who pray sincerely.
our personal experience has led us to
inquire into the cause OF our own personal
failure in certain cases. and We believe II
was all because physicians we're In charge
and medicines in use We ask no one TO give
up the physician or the physc for they will
not and cannot do so from the heart. unless
II Is matter OF genuine faith. but we have
definitely decided never to pray with the
sick for healing where the people retain the
services OF n physician or use medicines. We
may pray. but not for healing"
Mr. Daugherty plains this by saying that.
while he holds to the teaching that Christians
should obey the Scriptures in regard to slok-
ness and call for the elders Of the church and
let them do as prescribed, they should not
have the services Of the elders and the physi-
clan at the same time They should hold on
to the doctor until they can fully trust God
and let the services OF the elders alone
There are two well-known physicians in
my church." said Mr. Daugherty. but neither
OF them takes medicine themselves but.
when needed call for the services OF the
elders to pray over them and anoint them
with oil. as required by the Scriptures

GAVE MS TESTIMONY AND DIED.
Death Came Before the sick Man Could swear
to His Evidence.

YoNKERs, April o.--Just as he had finished
giving his testimony In the case in which ms
wife was the defendant and before he could
swear TO it, John b. Hopkins OF Bronxvlle
fell back In his bed dead last night.
The case was that OF the State Anti-Saloon
League against Mrs John Hopkins. who
conducted a saloon in this village. She Is
accused OF having opened her store one Sun
day last summer and OF having sold liquor
to the agents OF the league. Referee John
M. Digney had already held several sessions.
The complainants had f-Ished their case
and the defence was being heard. Since the
last hearing Mr.. Hopkins had been taken
sick with a cold. which developed into pneu-
monia. His condition becoming serious and
his testimony being OF importance 10 the
defence. Referee Digney agreed 10 hold a
session In the sick room, which was done last
night.
In the room, besides the referee, was Mr..
Spear, attorney for the Anti-Saloon League.
and Charles +. Curran. attorney for the de-
fence In tho house were the attending g
physician and q priest The family OF MIR
Hopkins were by his bedside. The man gave
his testimony unhesitatingly. although with
some difficulty. on account OF his illness.
He swore that the saloon was not open. as
charged by the league. The attorney for
the league was unable TO shake the dyin z
mans testimony The scene was q par
ticularly sad one. involving as 1t did so many
things OF much importance to Mrs. Hopkins
