"THE CHURCH OF GOD."'
Negroes Who Dire Living Back in
Bible Times"

Pursuing up their lips, two Philadelphia col
cred men kissed each other in Chestnut-st. the
sther day. At once crowd encircled them.
1t had been indeed a strange thing to see.
The two men had advanced from opposite di-
rections. They had exchanged affectionate
smiles. They had put their arms around each
others necks. They had kissed calmly
Now, as they stood conversing, the crowd
shot questions at them.
Hey, there, what did you want to kiss for?"
Say, you do you belong to some new secret
society, what?"
To these questions the darker Of the two
cooTed men replied:
Gentlemen he said, my friend and 1 kissed
each other because we belong to a new church
the Church of God-and the rules of this new
church require all its members to kiss when
they meet. This rule is in our constitution be-
cause, In the first place, the Bible tells us to
kiss on meeting, and because, in the second
place we want to reach and interest the public.
My friend and L have reached and interested
you, gentlemen, already, but wouldn't We have
failed in this if we hadn't kssed?"
A man in the crowd laughed.
Where is your church, and who IS its
founder" he said
Our church." replied the colored man, ''is in
Quaker City Hall, at No. ,416 Fitzwater-st. Its
founder is Prophet CrOwdy. He lives at the
Saints of Christ grocery, in Fitzwater-st, above
sixteenth"
With chuckes of amusement and murmurs of
surprise, the crowd dispersed, quite unaware
that it had upon a strange and powerful
religious movement.
This movement, the cOlored folk of Philadel-
phia say has worked a miracle among them, for
il has caused over 1900 of their number to be-
gin to lead lives singularly rigorous and clean.
1t has caused 5000 persons to band together in
the heart of the city, in a kind of fraternal COM
munty This community conducts its own gro
ceries, its own restaurants, it's own newspaper,
its own drygoods shops, for the benefit of the
new church, and it devOtes the profits of these
enterprises wholly to a propagation of the new
faith.
The faith has gained its 5000 followers, or
Saints of Christ in less than year, for in
1892 it originated in Philadelphia. Now it has
begun to take root in Washington, in Baltimore,
and in the West and South for Bishop Crowdy

You must never be idle shiftless"
Along Fitzwater-st, for a space of about a
quarter OF a mile, the members Of the Church of
God live in brick houses Here and there, amid
the monotony of the houses, a shop, with its
sign and awning, juts forth. Strange are the
signs, strange are the awnings, of these shops.

RUINED A WOMAN.
Sad Case of A Youth Whose Father Appeals
TO the Law to Save.
Wilmington Messenger.)

Wilmington Messenger)
For kidnapping young man OF seven
teen or eighteen years OF age two of the
white women CT this city, whose lives are
passed amidst the darkest shadow of sin,
have been indicted i'll Justice Fowler's
court. 1t is novel, yet deplorablc case.
and goes beyond the kidnapping of the
body 20 the kidnapping of the soul-the
moral ruination of well known young
white man of this city and which the
law may punish and the Great Father
VIII punish.
The women are Mabel Carleton and
Minnie Sanford, inmates of a house near
Fourth and Castle streets, and the grave
charge is brought by the boys father,
whose every effort heretofore to save
his child has been in vain.
1t is alleged that the boy has become
so infatuated with the woman Minnie
Sanford that he has deserted home and is
constantly found In her disreputabe com
pany. Once the woman and boy left the
city and were away together for some
time. The father has tried by every
means in his power to induce his son to
leave the woman's company but IN vain
He warned the woman and Mabel Garlic
ton, whom it is alleged is mistress of the
house in question, that his boy was I'M
der twenty-one years of age and not to
shelter him, but all this had no effect.
until now he appeals to the strong arm of
the law for Intervention. AS the boy is
beyond fourteen years of age abduction
could not be charged, so warrants were
sworn out in Justice Fowlers court
charging kidnapping.
The warrants were placed in the hands
of Constable Savage and served yesterday
afternoon. The Carleton woman gave a
$50 bond, but Minnie Sanford went to
jail The trial will be at IL o'clock to-
morrow morning.
The case with all its sadness is an in
toresting one from a legal viewpoint, and
the defendants, while morally guilty, may
technically escape legal punishment.

There was a good deal of talk yes.

Of the Asheville division of the South
ern Railway, that railroad men should
De total abstaifers. There may be some
difference of opinion as TO whether an
order should be issued requiring men not
70 drink when not on duty, it Is certain
that the engineer and firemen should be
sober men. The only sure way of being
sober all the time is totally abstrain from
the use of alcoholic drinks. The follow
ing dispatch sent out from Washington
shows that railroad superintendent and
managers are fighting the drink evil:
Railroads throughout the country are
Wagng war against the use of lntoxlcat-
ing liquors and tobacco by employees en-
gagged in operating trains.
The fat has gone forth generally that
employees who drink, or who frequent
places where liquors are sold, are not
safe men to entrust with the hives OF
patrons, nor with the valuable property
transported by the railroads
Total abstinence is essential to SER
vice in the operating department OF every
railroad centering in Chicago, and, SO
far as known of every important rail-
road in the United States.
The revolution which is being effected
in these respects is shown in the new
rule books many of the arrangements OF
the Chicago roads have just issued. With
out a single exception these books con-
tain the following, or rules winch are
similarly framed:
I" The use of intoxicants by employees
while on duty is prohibited. Their habit
ual use, or the frequentlng ot places
where they are sold, is sufficient cause
for dismissal.
The use of tobacco by employees when
On duty in and about passenger staVloils
or on passenger cars is prohlDlted.

the same on all railroads, some are more
severe than others in thor enforcement.
