DEATH OF CAPTAIN .AKsnNI

An Life

Philadelphia, November S.-Captain
BEDFORD w. Sargent, marine superin-
endent of Cramps s~hipyard, died today
of heart trouble aged about 60 years.
He had been i'll since Tuesday.
Captain Sargent became connected
with Cramp Company about nine years
ago. All big vessels built by h Cramp
Company during that period have been
under the direct command Of Captain
Sargent on their builders n official
trials.
When Captain Sargent was 10 years
old he ran away from home and went
to sea. When the civil war. broke out
he entered the federal navy and ac-
Quilted himself creditably. He was in
command Of the vessel which carried
General Grant to Europe ON his famous
trip round the world. In 1892 ne COM
manded the Indiana, when that vessel
carried a cargo of -four and provisions
from Philadelphia to the starving Rus
sian peasants. During the Gillian

by h government in command Of the
steamship Ohio, which was fitted out,
as q floating machine shop.

MISSIONS AND RAINY DAYS

A new book out concerning African
missions has attracted the attention OF
the secular press in some degree. The
reports given are very favorable, and If
the missionaries really understand the
negro character u there what they
say is remarkable. For instance at one
industrial institution at Loyedale near
Capetown, out of 1000 young men
graduated" but Is have relapsed into
barbarism in thirty years. The effort
to first ~civilize and then Christianize
has proved invariably a complete fail
ure. The following Illustration of this
Is given in the book:
'Nominally Christian civilization has
squatted along Atlantic Africa since
las; but how many I'VE to Chris
tfanity had civilization won? How
many in east Africa? In South Africa
Dutch civilization had h field to itself
from 1862 to 1895. What did it achieve?
Governor SteIl dressed a 'Hottentot, in
in a military uniform with gold-trim-
med had, silk stockings, and a sword.
He learned Dutch and Portuguese in
India. . He ought, on his re-
turn to Cape Colony, to have Joined the
Dutch Reformed church. What this
Khol-Khoin actually did was to don his
cloak of skins = and go c to
barbarism. Three hundred
thousand pagan Zulu, though in touch
with civilization for fifty years, are yet
without furniture of any kind, whereas
the Christian Zulu live / k Europeans
in houses, and have built a school and a
stone church"
We notice in a secular daily exchange
a timely editorial sermon on THE Fair
Weather Christian" The text is from
Matthew %, 8: "And they would not
come" Any regular church attendant
can bear witness to the fact that in all
the churches this class of Christians"
abo-nd, constitute the majority. 1t
need not be limited to the fair days, but
to all kinds of weather, cold or hot. The
tor of empty seats. 1t may come In
part from the regularity of securing
church services. but it is to be suspect

OF the piety. A truly religious man or
woman is quite apt to attend the
preaching of the Word OF Life. If the
day is not exceedingly u~nfavorable
they will go to church if they would goI
ITO their regular work under such CIR
.cu~nstances. The sermon mentioned Is
timely and well done. We quotei

pie seems to insist upon rejecting any
Sunday which is not a day of sunshine.

Nine of the twenty-siX convlcts who
escaped from the stockade of the new
federal prison mere yesterday afternoon
have been accounted for. Three of the
five are dead: James Hoffman, aged
20, white; B. J. Poffenheiln, aged %,

wounded and recaptured, and the fifth,

The men were discovered in the barn
of Fay Weishaar, lei Nortonville,
Kas.. about 8 o'clock his afternoon.
Weishaar went into the barn and was
ordered out at the point of guns. He
rushed to Nortonville and gathered a
posse of men, who with revolvers, shot
guns and a few Winchesters, fastened
to the scene. The convicts say the men
coming and rushed from the barn.
They had two shot guns and a revolver.
The posse pursued them and a running
duel resulted. The ~convicts were at. a
disadvantage and their shots had no
effect, while at every volley from the
posse one Of h convicts fell. After
two of them had fallen, two of the
others gave themselves up, n being
wounded, the other unhurt. The fifth
was fully two hundred yards away

THE CrURr AND TIE ADVOC >TE

Y Captain Lemly made the closing
speech. 1t was the last agony OF a de-
feated combination. 1t showed now
very weak is the case of the
prosecution. After Mr.. Rayner's mas
te-ful effort in behalf of the great
Pear Admiral, Lemly was tame, nat
xa1acious. He was moderate and even
tempered, but was forced by the over
yhelming evidence in behalf OF Schley
TO acquit him of all charge or Suspicion
of c~owardice. But for this he deserves
M credit. He simply did not have a
loo RI stand upon. He conducted the
prosecution with a paramount desire
to ruin. to blast h good name anu
brilliant record as a ava commander
of the distinguished son OF Maryland
At the last Lemly bore himself petter
and although eager to destroy Scnley
he kept within the bounds OF decency'
.f legal decorum. He is praised Tor
his moderation, but he was not always
that in his efforts to convict a pure
noble. innocent man. In spite OF the
great victory of Schley he charged thai
he was unsteady in purpose and DISC
beyed orders. We believe the whole
thing from first to last was a most foul
conspiracy, and the men engaged had
no real conception of the strength OF
Schley's case. h court Will carefully
revise the whole testimony and tneD
report results. The country expects a
fair. conclusive, complete vindicat1on
of the great commodore.
Mr.. Rayner has returned to his home
in Baltimore. He thinks the court was
composed OF remarkable men. We
quote a pleasant tribute to Admiral
Dewey as a jurist, we find in The Sun
of that city: Admiral Dewey told me
he came from a family of jurists and
that he a heard a great deal of law
before going to sea. This was in an
swer to my question as to how he could
decide so readily upon technical ques-
tions OF law. I had no idea that the
hero or Manila a the qualifications
Of a great Judge without perhaps ever
having read a law book"
He even praised Lemly and says that
he had had an exceedingly delicate
duty to perform. He was personally
very friendly to Admiral Schley, and ii
fell upon him to conduct this case
against him. He acted with a becom-
Ing degree of impartiality. I believe
