 According to Contents.
 New York, July 11l-Sseretary Will son of the department of agriculture has sent out an orderland circular let ter in regard to large amount of adulterated food stuffs imported since the pure food law went into effect, and which have been held up because the bureau of chemistry of the department found that all kinds of adulteration had been practic:d.
 Secretary Wilson in this order modi- ies former one in which he had de- clared that the goods must all be sent back to Europe. A number of the larg- est wholesale grocers in New York who were concerned in the importation made strong protest, pleading mis- understanding of the law.
 The secretary's order which arrived at the New York custom house to-day nroyides that goods already imported shall not be sent back, but may be sold in this country. He orders, however, that cans of peas colered with sulphate of copper shall be distinctly labeled so as to show this fact, variols straw berry jams shall bear a label reading "artificially colored," and some canned mushrooms must be sold as stems and scraps.t

 Cardiff, Wales, July 11.-An explo- sion of fire damp in No. pit of the United National Colliery company at Wattstown in the Rhondda Valley, the center of the great Welsh coal fields, this morning is believed to hav- re- suited in the loss of at least l26 lives
 A loud report was immediately fol lowed by the belching of clouds of smoke and dust from the pit shaft in which 150 men were working.
 The forca of the explosion wrecked the machinery at the mouth of the pit, cutting off communication with the doomed men in this direction. No. l shaft. adjoining, has ordinarily afford ed communication with No. 2 The SOU men in No. and the few who escaped from No. were drawn up.
 A rescue party descended, but it's work was seriously inpeded by the foul air and the falling masses of earth dis- lodged by the explosion.
 Altogether, nine bodies have been re- covered at midnight.
 Heroic efforts have been made for hours to reach the entombed men, but late tonight the absence of all sound from the interior of the mine told the tale of the worst disaster that has talk en place in South Wales since 1894.
 The news of the explosion spread rapidly and thousands of men, women and children throngsd about the head of the pit seeking information con corning relatives and friends. The mountain roadways were crowded all the afternoon, and tonight there were streams of psople in the neighborhood of the mine, all contributing to the usual pitiful scenes.
 Efforts at rescue were still in prog ress at midnight and currents of fresh air were being driven through the shaft, but the r;scuers worked with out hope of reducing the list of fatal- ities.

Duty of the Church.

Arthur 4. Hadley, president of Yale,
says: Here is the great vital need
for the church: Not TO make the
American people law-abiding and in
telligent-that it is already; not even
to make 1t kindly and courteous and
industrious-these virtues we have, If
not in ideal measure, at any rate suf-
hciently for many of the practical pur-
poses of life; but to fight with all its
heart and with all its soul that danger
Gus spirit of selfish isolation which en-
courages Il man to take whatever the
law allows and most approves the man
who has taken most
To-day, as well as two thousand
years ago, we have our Pharisees and
other scribes, who rest content with
the law and what it brings. To-day,
also, as two thousand years ago, we
have our false prophets, who seeks to
remedy the errors of kingdom Of the
world by another kingdom of the
world, whose powers shall simply be
transferred from the hands of the con-
servatives TO those of the radicals. 1t
sometimes seems as though all efforts
at reform We're reducing themselves to
an endless struggle between those who.
anxious to have the rights of property
maintained by the courts and those
who, having more votes than money,
are anxious to have those rights inn
paired by the Legislature or trans
ferred to the hands of elected magis-
trates.
From no such blind struggle can any
true reform come. There must be a
sense, both on the part of the business
man and the politician, on the part o.
those who have and on the part of
those who desire TO have, that power
is a trust and not privilege; that life
is to be valued not for what it enables
us to get out of the people, but fol
what 1t enables us to give to the po
pie in the way of service. This wa!

ago. This is the message of every

Iowa tries sending its persistent
drunkards to insane asylums-a logical
procedure and reported of some effect.
During the last thirty years there
died in Europe alone of alcoholism a
total Of 7,500,O00 people. That is more
people than were killed in the wars of
the nineteenth century.
The Rev. Walter r. Davenport, of
Barre, VT, has accepted the position of
field secretary of the Vermont Anti
Saloon League. A part OF his duties
will be editing the Vermont Issue.
What the drunkard needs more than
anything else outside OF his own per-
sonality is the presence and influence
of n friend.
Alcohol, as sthenewphysiology proves,
has only one effect on the brain, and
that is paralyzing one. 1t should be
hated and driven out as common en-
emy, just as the various infectious dis
eases are.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has done wise thing In entering court
to remonstrate against granting liquor
licenses at certain places where 1t has
d large number Of employees. 1t knows
the superior worth OF sober workmen.

This is. indeed, an age of progress,
but let us give God the glory. Man
does not develop himself apart from
God and the knowledge OF God. If
present progress in any heather land
be traced to its source, ii will be found
that Christianity Is the moving cause
There is no such thing as developing
ones self apart from any outside infiu-
ence. Men speak of the wonderful inn
provement in the speed of fast horses.
The horse has not developed its own
speed. Intelligent men have done it
for him. We are having larger straw
berries and finer apples today than
ever before. We have marvellous de-
velopment in roses But this Is not
because Strawberries, left to them
selves, have seen fit to increase their
size and improve their favor. 1t is not
because the apples have encouraged
one another, to the end that all have
improved. 1t is not because the roses
have formed n mutual Improvement
society. 1t is because man. made in
the image of God. has seen fit to exer-
else his wisdom and exert his influence
upon animal and vegetable life round
about him.

developed. 1t is because God has taken
hold upon him. Where there is no
knowledge of God. or 10 true concep-
tion of his character, there can be no
development of the best that is in man.
except 1t be by contact with other
men who themselves have been in
touch with God. Infidels there are,
and agnostics and men who are with
out God and without hope in the world,
who are nevertheless gentle and re-
fined and intelligent. but that is be-
cause they have been so blessed as to
be permitted to live their lives among
people who worship God.
The. knowledge of God is necessary
to human progress. James Russell
Lowell said years ago. There are not
ten spare miles of territory in this
world governed by infidels." Only God
can lift us up. The result of ignoring
Him is always degeneration. He is q
fool who says In his heart that this
world could be better without Him.
