Mr. DeArmond, (Mo.); secured the
floor when Mr. Cannon concluded and
sarcastically ridiculed ''the remarkable
appearance of the gentlemen from Illi-
nois in the garb and guise of friend of

Mr. DeArmond ended the war for the
liberation of Cuba. 1t was not resigned
as a war of spoilation. It's object and
fruits were not turned into criminal ag-
gression by the Democrats. That guilt
belonged to the Republicans There was
nothing logically in connection with the
war for the relief of Cuba and the per-
petual occupation of the Philippines by
force of arms.
The English civilization vic hMr. Can

mighty English nation in South Africa,
he said was somewhat similar to ours
in the Philippines, but he believed that
eventually the American people would
be aroused to the enormity of their at
titude and in their sober second thought
would refuse to allow themselves to be

make us examples of the same civiliza-

When he expressed doubt as to wether
the treaty with Spain should ever have
been ratified Mr.. Grosvenor (Ohio) ask

MRS. TAYLOR ON POWER.
An Immense Crowd at Edention Street Church

Sunday night Mrs. Taylor occupied the
pulpit at the Edenton Street Methodist
church. Every seat in the building was
taken, and every chair available had TO

Mrs. Taylor's theme was the power OF
the Gospel OF Christ. and we'll she prove /
it of her own self. if that power OF hers
is of jesus.

DIR. and Mrs f. Howard Taylor closed
last night at Edenton Street church the
series Of services in the interest of the
Inland China Mission. These services
have awakened deep interest in the sub
iect of missionary work in China, and
the unique methods adopted and sue
cessfully used in the conduct of this
great mission, with it's eight hundred
missionaries in different parts of China,
men and women, drawn from all counties
and climes and all shades of denomina
tional belief. are strange in their sim
plicity.
The story thesTaylors tell us is a won
derful one, almost Incredible were it
not for the facts, in this age when
miracles are supposed to be not. A mis-
sionary movement started without asking
anyone for money, and without any
money on hand, depending solely upon
prayer to God to bring voluntary con-
tributions, and actually getting the help
needed in the time 1t was needed and
! on account of the lack of capital to start
with; all this is enough to make one
stop and think. 1t is not mere state
ment. Facts and figures demonstrate
once more, as DR.. Marshall reminded us
the other night, that fact is Sometimes
stranger than fiction.
1t is an actual fast that not once dur
! ing all these meetings and during all
| these addresses has an appeal for money
or help been made to those who came to
! listen These appeals are made to no
audience but God And the help and
money has always come, and come more
and more, during the thirty-fve years
since the Rev. Hudson Taylor, father Of
