Strange and Impressive Ser
vice in the Salvation
Army Headquarters

AdiutAnt Kamp, assisted the Saliva
ltion Army in the unique service of dis
lsocting and burning the devil in the
larmy headquarters IN Shipley street
last night.
At tins opening of the service taps
were sounded and from the rear OF
1.-THE room came a strange process sicn.
lLieutsnants Hayes and HcnelIs horc the
devil in a cohin-snaped box of pine.
lThey represented surgeons and wore
long white aprons. Ensign Lulu Jonas
land Katherine Jones brought up the
lrear dressed as nurses. Adjutant Kemp
began the service by reading the Scrip
lture.
The adjutant announced that he first
woud dissect the word devil" He did
so. First he chopped oy the ID leav-
ing the word evil" { is the devils
mission, he said to do evil Next by
transformation he found, the word
vile" which represented the character
of the devil The word "lie" was the
result OF the next transformation, and
the adjutant said the devil" lied from
the beginning. On this topic he dwelt
upon political, business. religious and
social lies.
AS the various members of the
"dsvil' were dissected, they were liken-
ed to some sin and deplored by the
adjutant. For instance, a woman S

sentod pride; the tongue lying scan
dal, gossip; the backbone, doubt; the
lips evils of drink; the wings impure
literature; the heart, deceit After the
illustrated discourse. the devil then
was burned. Lieutenant Henaks ap-
piled the match. the lid was screwed
down and the biox was taken hastily

pose, and ia harmony with the car s
aspirations for peace and harmony be-
tween the nations. the Russian govern
ment now gives assurances Of the most
definite and satisfactory character as to
the execution OF this purpose. The eX-
tent OF the assurances c1n be best
judged by the impression made in the
highest official quarters here that the
threatened crisis over Manchuria has
been completely averted.
The Russian communication Is the
more significant coming at moment
when the press adviccs from Europe
asserted that Russia was collecting an
army OF 100000 men for the purpose of
holding Manchuria without reference 10
the desire Of the other powers. There
is no doubt that Russia has a large
military force in Manchuria, so that
had she determined 10 hold the prcy-
incR she has the military establishment
already on the ground prepared TO
maintain her occupancy.
To the officials in Washington one OF
the most gratifying features of Rus
sia's acticn IS that II is responsive to
Secretary Hays note of March 1 last.
This note had been previously COM
municated TO the Chinese minister a:
Washington. and advised him that the
United States viewed as inexpedient
and dangerous to the interests of China
the conclusion of any prlyateterritOrial
or financial agreement. A copy of this
communication was sent TO the United
States ambassador at ST. Petersburg
Mr.. Charlemagne Tower. end the Rus
sian ambassador at Washington was
also made aware OF its contents. While
the note never was addressed directly
10 Russia, yet by the foregoing means
it came fully 10 the attention Of tho
Russian authorities.
