Resisting Power.


When a physician is called to a case
of severe illness, the first thing that he
estimates is the resisting power of the p a
tient. The chances for his recovery are
in proportion to his vitality. If there be
little of that at the outset there is small
hope of overcoming the disease. The re-
sisting power of persons IN full health IS
such that in an epidemic they throw of
the disease germs that PROSTATE others.
One cannot always tell from appearances
just how much ability one has to Withstand
the inroads of a malady. Some who APP
parently are robust almost Immediately
succumb, while others who look frail re-
cover from violent attacks. OF course, dis
sipation, unhygienic living, unhealthful
surroundings sap ones resisting power, so
that when a virulent ailment makes an
attack one has strength insufficient to
fight it off.
You see that it is not so much the ma
l~ignaney of the disease as it Is the vital
ity of the man that determines the re-
suit. just so it is also in the moral world.
There are some persons living lives so up
right. so spiritually healthy, that they are
practically immune from temptation. And
when they are overcome, they soon dis
cover themselves. for their power of resis-
lance is great. On the other hand, there
arc those who after s~uccumblng to one
temptation are completely swept away oy
the power of evil. How can that be ac-
counted for? Obviously in the same way
that the ability to resist physical disease
is to be explained. There has been I'M
wholesome moral living; the mind has
been permitted to become familiar with
evil thoughts; the soul has breathed in
miasma and corruption until one has no
ability to put away temptation.
All this suggests the need of resisting
power both against disease and against
sin. A pure, clean, wholesome life, physi-
cal and moral, will make one secure
against any harm that either can do.

Juvenile Views of Marriage.

He was a curly headed boy, with life
before him. She was a little girl with
q saucy pug nose but wise, it would
seem, beyond her years. The fact that
she was nursing a doll with Eyes that
opened and shut with a click may have
been his inspiration.
"Say, sister, 1 t'ink I'd get married if
I knew how"
ooh, that's easy" replied the owner
Of the pug nose. First you buy a dia-
mond ring and give it to her; then you
buy a gold ring, like mammals got, and
give that to her. And then you must
buy her a watch for her birthday"
"An' what she give me?" expectantly
asked the little chap.
"Why, nutin', of course" smartly re.
piled his little companion.
"Say, sister," he added, 81 guess I
won't marry"

head had been cut clean from the
trunk by the wheels Of a locomotive.
put there were no other injuries on his
body to indicate that he had been
struck by a train. His linen collar had

preacher and an insurance agent. She
SAID that he had recently been preach
ing in Philadelphia, and that she re-
ceived a letter from him two days ago
IN which he said he was about to re-
turn to Brooklyn. Mrs. Hopgood re-
lects the theory Of suicide. advanced
by the authorities. She accounts for
her husbands apparent preparation
for death by saying that he was sub
Ject to hemorrhages and had a habit of
wearing a newspaper over his shirt
front when travelling to keep it from
being soiled. She knows of no reason
why he should have committed suicide.
and is at a loss to account for his pres

after stating that his sister and ward
has been insane in the State Hospital

MES the charge of desertion and de-
clares that the marriage of the young
woman and Stockton was a secret one
while the former was employed as
nurse in the family of the latter's
father. Stockton, he says, promised
to provide a home for his wife. but
utterly failed to do so. Three years

AGRICULTURAL.
Raising High Glass Poultry


A reader of this department writes
a long letter, asking for advice as to
how he shall go about getting togeth-
err a flock of high-class poultry. He
says, among other things: II have
fifty laying hens of no particular breed;
indeed, 1 think they represent a mix
ture of half a dozen breeds, and I
want to use them as the foundation
for my high-class fowls, for they are
good layers" There is absolutely no
chance for success if a man goes about
raising high-class poultry with a lot
of mixed fowls as the foundation, yet
farmers are quite given to trying this
plan, and when failure comes. cry
ing down the poultry business. With
such a flock as the correspondent re-
fers to the best plan is to keep them
for egg production and for setting.
Then let him buy a trio of h~igh-grade
birds of the breed he thinks will best
suit his purpose. For this trio he
should pay all he can possibly afford.
These birds should be housed and
yarded so that they cannot possibly
come in contact with the common
fowls. Then let him buy two, three
or four settings of eggs Of a high grade
and of the same breed as his trio, but
buying them of another breeder. Give
these eggs to the most reliable setting
hens in the common flock, and let her
care for the chicks until they car look
out for themselves, when they should
be allowed the freedom of the range
until large enough to breed. AS this
period draws near see that they are
kept away from the common stock,
and breed the pullets to the cock of
the trio and the hens of the trio to a
strong cockerel of the Matched birds.
In this way the breed is kept pure and
the danger of inbreeding overcome.
After a time, as the flock of thorough
breds increases the common fowls may
be disposed of.

tions. As a nation we are building the
better house. We nave found that it costs
labor and blood to secure the site for our
edltlce, that our material, cut from the
forests of the Old World, is rough and un-
seasoned; that sometimes our workers fail
to enter unselishly into the spirit of the
enterprise. We at times discover, too, that
we have not followed correctly the plan Of
the great architect, and then it becomes
necessary for us to humble ourselves BY
tearing down part of the structure. But,
after all, the building grows, and its pro-
portions already begin to challenge the ad.
miratiOn Of the world. The critic, as he
sits at the cabin door Of monarchy or aris-
tocracy, begins with vague alarm to con-
tast the cracked and crumbling walls and
the leaking thatch of his abode with the
rising mansion in the distance.
The nations social ideal makes inexor-
able demands upon every citizen of the re-
public. The world of to-day marvels at
the matchless benefactions Of our men OF
wealth, and the nations are asking why it
is that this unprecedented philanthropy is
so peculiarly American. 1t is due to the
imperative claims of our social ideal. Pub
lie sentiment demands, and men of wealth
recognize the demand as Just, that private
wealth should be spent for the good Of the
nation and for the good of the race. The
educator feels the same pressure. He hears
the voice of the people summoning him to
a free search for truth. The true labor
leader recognizes the same stern call to ser.
vice; so he becomes a mediator, an arbi-
traitor between two great forces. The old
story in the good Book tells US that a
Babel a mighty calamity befell the race
that there the speech of mankind became
confused. In this land of ours Babel is re.
versed: The nations are here assembled
to build the greater tower of truth, and
the confusion of the Babel tongues gives
place little by little to a new language, the
language of love, spoken by the toiling
millions, so that in a sweeter, grander
sense than ever before it is to be true that
the whole earth shall be "of one language
and Of one speech"
Thales of old, with so shadowy a con-
ception of God that we know not whether
to classify him as atheist or as theist. yet
strangely conceived of deity as creating
the great world temple and so possessing
it as to reveal in its every part the pres
ence of the Creator. The world of our
time may seem strangely Indifferent to
that presence of God which the seers of
the race feel to be the most tremendous
fact of life. But the world will not remain
forever content with mere things. The
time is to come when the nations must feel
the Divine Presence. When that time
comes the cry of the peoples will be,
"Wherewith shall we come before the
Lord?" God grant that in that solemn
day of the worlds supreme need it may be
granted unto US as the teacher of the ma.
lions to shout the great reply: He hath
showed you. 0 nations, what is good; and
what doth the Lord require of you but to
do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk
humbly with your God"

HANG CAR BARN BANDITS
Execution in Chicago Of Men Guilty
of Eight Murders.
Nlcderneier, Marx and Van Dine Pay
Death Penalty on the Scaffold i'm the
Order Named-Their Grimes.

N~iedermeier, Marx and Van Dine Pay
Death Penalty on the Scaffold In the
Order Named-Their Grimes.
Chicago, Ill.-As the elimination of
a series of crimes without parallel in
the history of Chicago, the three car
barn bandits-Gustav Marx, Peter Me
dermeier and Harvey Van Dine-were
hanged in the County Jail shortly be-
fore noon. Niedermeier remained an
atheist to the last, while the other
two, who had Joined the Catholic
faith, were attended by priests.
The first to pay the penalty was
Niedermeier, crack shot and leader of
the automatic trio" Still weak from
mis- attempt at suicide by stabbing
himself with a pencil and swallowing
match heads and too surly and dis
obedient to make the attempt to
walk, he was carried to the scaffold
in a hospital cart and placed in a
chair until the bonds and the moose
We're adjusted. He was not asked if
he would speak. The guards stood
about him, and Jailer Whitman
placed the white shrOud over him, adj
justed the moose about his neck and
then placed the white hood Over his
face. The jailer then stepped back
and gave the signal. The drop fell
successfully at 1896 o'clock. The
shroud fell apart as his body shot
downward, and to those in the room
was revealed the last struggle of the
deSnprate ,Tiedermain-
Gustav Marx went next. being ac-
companied to the gallows by two
priests. Harvey Van Dine was hanged
last, as his attorneys were making a
last effort for a stay OF execution.
The specific offense for which the
three men were hanged was the MUIR
der of Frank Stewart, a clerk in the
Chicago City Railway car barns, dur.
ing a robbery there on the morning
of August 30, 1903. Marx was arrest
ed in Chicago, after a fight in which
he killed Detective Quinn. He impli-
Gated the other two, and involved Ro-
eski, since sent to the p~enitentiary
for life. Van Dine, Niedermeier and
Roeski were caught over the State
line in Indiana, after a fight with fifty
policemen from Chicago, and a posse
OF farmers, during which Detective
Driscoll was fatally shot, Detective
thinner seriously wounded. and the
brakeman of a freight train, stolen
by the bandits, killed. Van Dine and
Niedermeier were wounded slightly.
Others persons known , have been
murdered by the bandits are Otto
Bander, Benjamin C. La Gross and
AdOlph johnson. killed in saloon rob-
berries in this city, and ]. B. johnson.
a motorman, killed in the car barn
robbery.
