MADMAN IN CHURCH.
Points Pistol at Preacher and Ter
rifles Congregation.
Pacihed by the Dulcet Voice of Col,
John p. Irish and Cowed by the
Se1f-Possession of Prof.
Griggs.

The presence of Prof. E. II. Griggs
on the lecture platform in Boston
reminds one of his former acquaint-
ances in California, Rev. C.. w.
Wendte, now pastor of the Parker
Memorial, of an incident in the pro-
fessor's early career which testifies
to his presence of mind and personal
courage in threatening situation.
Prof. Griggs, at that time occupying
the chair of ethics at Leland Stan
ford university, supplied the pulpit
of Mr.. Wendte for one or two Sun
days during the clergyman's tempo
rary absence from the city. Among
the large congregation was a dan
gerous crank, who, as soon as the
opening exercises were concluded
and the professor came forward to
begin his discourse, rose from his
seat, and, brandishing revolver,
strobe down the aisle to the chancel.
Covering Mr.. Griggs with his weapon,
he denounced him as the employe of
a heartless capitalist and the un-
principled tool of the money power.
Turning to the astonished audience,
he began a wild harangue, mean
while violently flourishing his pistol.
A few affrighted women fled from
the church or hid behind the pews,
but the suddenness of the whole pro-
ceeding and the fear that the weapon
so recklessly handled might go off
to some ones injury, held the con-
gregation spellbound.
Prof. Griggs had paled when the
mans revolver was pointed at him
at such close range, but he never
finched, and stood, slightly leaning
against the desk, calmly surveying
the intruder. When the latter
turned his back on him to address
the congregation with his incoherent
rawlings, the professor, against whom
his wrath seemed especially directed,
might easily have slipped out by the
chancel door, but he remained as be-

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
Churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

to look upon the project Of an inter-

We were allowed the privilege OF build

OF its control II was to be built
through a territory governed by
people who were given to constant
revolutions, and tho incentive for our
Efforts was lacking.
Then came our new treaty with Eng

free hand so far as European interests
we're concerned. leaving the problem
II the route. and the negotiations as to
control to us to determine. Since that
time up TO few weeks ago we have
been negotiating with Colombia. We
have asked for no concession not Inn
peratlvely demanded by the nature OF
The enterprise. our offer was most
liberal and its acceptance would havt
insured full treasury for the Colom-
bian government
But events were shaping themselves
FOR more satisfactory arrangement.
Colombia was greedy and blind; she
refused to ratify the treaty under the
belief that we would sue for reopen
ing OF negotiations and that then she
could impose any sort OF terms. But
her greed went too far. The people OF
PanamQ had to be reekoned with. They
saw the canal slipping from their GRASP
forever. and they knew that we would
never offer another penny for the con-
cession. So the secession OF Panama
came. and the Administration at WASH

able gentleman and would run as well
as anybody else the Democrats could
name. but he viii hardly be nominated.
Mr.. Marvel is a young lawyer who has

ond contract with the sand Filtration
Company has dug his political grave,
and would now stand no better chance

will do his part in seeing that Justice

Company and that he viii earnestly
second the efforts Of his colleague.
There is no political reason to deter
him, and We have a right to expect
that ne will look after the interests os
a great industry whose welfare is so
important TO Wilmington.
But TO commend the second contract
with the sand Filtration Company
argues a lack Of Information. or the
ability to swallow much that would
nauseate another. II strikes us that
it is either the most stupid or the most
infamous contract ever given by any
department OF our government; and

lutely Indifferent they win never trust

OUR HOSPITALS.

Under the modern idea that has be-
come a conviction as civilization has
progressed the public owes a duty to
the sick and the unfortunate. Absolute
want and neglected suffering are re-
pugnant to the sensibilities Of any en-
lightened community; and conse-
quently, hospitals have been built and
organized charities are at work in every
section. The makers Of our new con-

which has prevented the State or
county governments from appropriate
Ing any money to any but public in
stltutions Consequently We're it not
for private charity we should have no

tutons. The idea aimed to prevent am

wilmington has two hospitals sup
ported by a band OF earnest men and
women. Annually they care for hum
dreds OF the afflicted of our city who
otherwise would suffer. Hundreds of
accident cases are treated annually and
the best skill is given TO the unfortun-
ate; and for this the city and the
State pay not a penny. It is mis-
take; the government should not ex-
pect private charity to meet all these
requirements.
Yet such is the case as 1t stands, and

OIL TRUST IS NOW
SQUEEZING AUSTRIA
Prices Have Been Raised 50
Per Cent. Since Combine
Organized

Vienna, Nov 2S.-Much indignation
is expressed here over the steadily
increasing price of oil. Since the for
nation of the Austro-Hungarian Petro-
leum Cartel. prices have advanced so
per cent, with the prospect that they
will go still higher as soon as the
present stock becomes exhausted. The
advance inficts the greatest hardship
on the poorer classes. especially on
the thousands of tailors and dress
makers, who work in ethir own homes.
The local authorities of the several
districts have taken the matter up and
are urging the city council to use ev-
cry means to break up the oil monop-
oily. There is. however, not the slight
est prospect that these efforts will be
successful. Both the Standard Oil Co.
and the Deutschebank are continuing
their efforts to come to an agreement
with this cartel regarding the German
market, but a strong section Of the
Austrian refners wish the cartel to
remain independent of both parties.
