STARTLES THE BAPTISTS.
Rev. Johnston Myers Tells Audience
at Mexico, Mo-, That Work of
Church Is to Save from He'll.

Rev. Johnston Myers, pastor Of the
Emmanuel Baptist church of Chicago,
startled the State Baptist Young Peo-
pies union at Mexico, Mo-, the other
day in his address on Soul Winning"
lie told the preachers and delegates
that there was something wrong with
the churches of to-day. This is why
the country has Christian Science,
faith cures and other strange doc
trines," he said. "The people are look
ing for something the churches are
not atfording them, heartfelt religion.
A variety of fads have swept the
churches and preachers in some cases
have gone after them instead of after
souls. The ministers are in society.
They are good fellows instead of soul
winners. | like to see people so afraid
of me that they will walk over on the
other side of the street, fearing that
/ will talk religion to them. That's my
only business, to save souls.
at is not the part of the church to
educate men, for thousands of uni
versitY graduates go down to hell. II
had $1,OOO,OOO l would give 500 to
education and the rest to salvation.
The church is to save men from hell,
not to educate them"

Washington and other revolutionary
war characters. The assessed valua-

park was reported to be $lS5,OOO, and
the actual purchase price will proba-

of the park will be about 100000.

MAKES THE BRITISH WORK.
American Contractor in England Sc
cures Good Results from
His WOrkmcn.

The London Daily Mail prints long
description of the progress of the
Westinghouse factory, which is being
built at Trafford park, Manchester,
which it says will be an immense hive
of British industry directed by Amcri-
can brains. The American contrac-
tor, Stuart, is employing labor-saying
devices, and is teaching and leading
1900 British workmen so ctfcctually
that, while there is no hurrying or
shouting, there Is steady, quiet prog
rcss. There is no loatng, and the men
are working all the time. Stuart has
taken liking to his British employees.
He says he finds the skilled labor good,
but he regards the common labOrer
as poor creature compared with an
American of the same class. A village
is springing up alongside the works,
which are to be arranged on American
plans, and will be heated by gas and
lighted by electricity. The corresponds
ent says the village will be u pocket

NEW HORSE DISEASE
Ten Thousand Horses in Manbattan
Suecumb I'm n Week, and Doc-
tors Are Puzzled,

Ten thousand horses in Manhattan
have succumbed within a week TO u
new epidemic, which so far has puzzled
the veterinarians, who admit that they
have not yet been able positively to
determine the cause and nature of the
disease or successfully treat it. The
trouble first became apparent week
ago, and since then the outbreak has
been general, affecting the high-bred
roadsters and coach horses, as well
as the beasts of the truckmen and
peddlers. The disease, however, is
more prevalent among the heavy draft
horses in the downtown districts
than anywhere else.
The symptoms are high fever, q
cough, loss of appetite, and general
weakness, in many cases amounting
to complete collapse in harness.
Although there have been no deaths,
DR.. +. j. McCafferty, of the New York
Veterinary hospital said the other day
that the new epidemic was the most
serious outbreak of disease among
horses since 1874, when the epizootic
killed thousands and made ten times
as many useless. The epizootic last
ed six weeks in this neighborhood, and
New York was something of curios-
ity. Most of the trucking was done
with oxen,

PEDDLERs AT WASHINGTON.
Odd Characters Who Make n Liveli-
hood by Selling Their Wares
to Federal Clerks.

Each executive office Of the govern.
ment at Washington has its time-hon'
ored peddler, who generally takes a
stand at his or her post before the
clerks arrive each morning, and re-
mains with the greatest tenacity until
the last clerk leaves the department in
the evening. One of the queerest of
these peddlers is an old woman, known
as Mistress Hayes, who sits in con.
torted lump at the north front of the
interior department, with one eye on
her Bible and the other on the lookout
for customers.
Her wares are lot of shoestrings,
pins. needles, buttons. and all other
email things such as peddlers generally
sell, making in all quite heavy stock
for a vender of this class. Though a
distance of many blocks, this old wom-
an, whose back Is as crooked a. rain
bow, pulls her small wagon through
good weather and bad, never failing o
take up her stand as the clerks go in.
Once in awhile some one buys trifle,
but usually little change is dropped
into the cup without a purchase.
For a time IT was the custom of the
messenger boys to leave their BICYCLES
at this end of the steps, while the old
woman occupied camp stood further
along in much exposed position. No
ticing this, and that the bicycle corner
was snug one, Secretary Hitchcock
had the boys move their wheels, and
now the old woman occupies the more
comfortable place.
The secretary sometimes drops a
coin in her cup, and though she con-
fides that she hopes sometimes to save
him through the medium of her quaint
old Bible, she has not yet tried to per-
suade him. She has, however, gotten
many of the clerks in the straight and
narrow path, and announces that her
! business is to serve them while they
buy shoestriDgs from her,

THE VERDICT OF PLATE. .
The Trial of the Saviour as Viewed
from a Legal Standpoint.

The Trial of the Saviour as Viewed
from Legal Standpoint.
Judge Edward Hatch of New York
lectured recently on "The Trial Of
Christ from Legal Standpoint" The
theme was handled with reverence and
the views presented are interesting.
"The view," said Judge Hatch, ''that
the death Of Jesus Christ was due to
the work of a mob is erroneous. He
was condemned by legal tribune, but
unjustly, and his condemnation was a
legal murder. He was charged with
blasphemy, the punishment for which
is death, and was tried and convicted
of treason in claiming to be higher
power than Caesar. His accusers
charged him with having also said to
one of his enemies, THY SINS are for
given thee and then, in proof Of the
accusation that he was committing
blasphemy in saying this, declared that
none but God himself could forgive
sin.
"No tribune that has ever existed
or, in all probability, that ever will ex-
list, has been intrusted with such
n,omentous task as the trial of the Son
of God. In those days it was neces-
sary for judges to understand several
languages, so that the accused of diff
ferent nationalities who might be
brought before them and who spoke
different tongues could be tried by the
judges in their respective languages.
"We should rejoice in this country
that such a state Of affairs does not
exist, but 1t is to be hoped that a time
will come when persons who come be-
fore our courts shall be compelled to
understand the language of the coun-
try before they can have any standing
in court.
"No tribunal of modern times has
ever laid on witnesses such a sense of
responsibility when testifying as exist
ed during the time of Jesus In many
respects modern law and justice has
been far behind that which existed
during the time of Christ.
"One reason why the Life of Jesus
was sought was because His teachings
totally destroyed the observances of
ceremony which We're upheld by the
Sadducees and Pharisees and which
added greatly to their power. They
did not seek His life as a punishment
for violation of the law, but to save
for themselves their places and power.
His conviction was in the furtherance
of plan of conspiracy, which was
also furthered by Judas Iscariot, who
took money as a brjbe for giving false
testimony.
Jesus declared that He could de-
stroy the temple in three days. This
was no crime. The judges by whom
he was tried violated the law during
His trial in most violent manner, for
the law forbade that person should
