THE EFFICACY OF VACCINATION

| ITS EFF iCfAS " NNOOitNA iON.
The Chicago Hesald-Record is wrest-
ling nightly but It is certain to win.
against a horde OF anti-vacelnation-
lists. That paper recently printed an
editorial commsnding vaccination. It
was not, it seems to us, rash or
risky proceeding. Jenners great dis
covery has survived so many assaults
and stands so firmly intrenched in
the confidence OF mankind that it's
commendation might we'll have been
expected to escape attack But that
was not what happened in this case.
The Record-Heralds editorial turned
on food of vehement protests by
correspondents. They wanted to know
whether that papers view of vacclna.
tion was based upon idle opinion
merely or upon proof And one learn
ed pundit demanded Of the editor II
he knew of a single case wherein vac
cination had prevented small pox.
That was a poser sure enough.
There was the editor advising and
urging vaccination with all the fine
rhetoric at his command, and yet he
was'not prepared to swear that he
knew Of single case wherein that
alleged preventive had been efflcaci.
GUS But in spite Of that lamentable
inability, the Record-Herald did not
surrender or retreat. It appealed to
the history of the disease through a
series of years, and It brought out a
summary for the last five months, fur
nished BY the Chicago health depart
ment. as follows

Thousands of young women at the Northfield seminary and of young men at Mount Hermon have been enabled to obtain an education and have been fitted for useful Christian lives. The Bible Institute in Chicago during the past eleven years has sent out hun- dreds of trained lay workers to assist the regularly ordained ministry in their work in behalf of the churches.
 Through these means, through the summer conferences, through his evan gelistic work, and his publications, he has touched and influenced the religious life of perhaps nearly every Christion in this country. In view of these facts it seems proper that popular expres- sion of sympathy with the work he or ganized, and to which he gave so much of the later years of his life, should take form in the opening of the new century, in a permanent endowment of these schools, and that it should be largely done in small and moderate amounts from large number rather than to attempt to do it all with large contributions from few.
 Already this memorial fund has re- ceived generous donations, and as Feb- ruary 9th will be the anniversary of MT. Moody's birthday, it would seem fitting that the second Sunday in Feb ruary d0th) should be observed as memorial day and on it popular contri- buttons from individuals, churches, Sunday schools and young peoples so- cieties secured for the fund.

A BELL WITH A HISTORY.

1 It is Relic of the Worst Steamboat
 Accident on the Missouri River.
 There hangs in the belfry of the little
 Christian church in the town of Savan-
 nah in Andrew county, Mo-, bell
 which has remarkable history. In { 1S52-forty-e years ago--there oc-
 cured at Lexington the most disastrous accident which ever befell a steamboat on the Missouri river and one attended ! with the greatest loss of human life. | The Saluda, a sidewheel steamer, with
 a battery of two boilers, was on it's way up the river with cargo of general
 merchandise and its cabin and lower deck crowded with passengers the most of whom were Mormons The river was unusually high and the current, as it came around the point just above the
 town, was extremely strong. Captain
 Francis T. Belt had made repeated ef- forts to stem the rapid current, but had as often failed At last, after waiting Se'ci di udyS lUI llle llOOu tO SuDSlue, ne asked the engineer how many more rounds of steam it could stand. On be- ing answered that it had already every pound that it could safely carry, he gave the command "Fill it up, put on more steam" and remarked to the en- gineer, with an oath, that he would round the point or blow it up. He then retired to the hurricane roof, rang the bell and gave the final command to least loose the lines" The bow of the boat turned gently out into the stream as it was caught by the current. The engines made but one revolution. Then came the terrible exploson-and all was chaos, darkness and death. The num- ber of those who lost their lives by the explosion was never known. About one hundred bodies were recovered, and 1t was supposed that there were as many more victims whose remains were nev- CT found. Nearly all the officers of the boat were killed. The bell which had just sounded the death knell of so many | ones was blown high up on the bank, where 1t was found uninjured ! News and Courier.
