done so in the past. BY many acts and
utteTances the church has declared its
rights and duty to discriminate among
donors.
''The principle itself is vicious and
eOrrupting, and it is impossible in
practice. We cannot aequit ourselves
of responsibility in receiving money,
for we do produce a moral effect.
Money talks and the board has done
much in the pas ito give it a voice.
over against this position we urge
the positive principle in application to
this specific case. This requires that
the representatives OF a Christian body
be peculiarly sensitive to the moral
bearing of gifts offered, and especially
to the social effect arising from their
acceptance. If, from any cause, the
proposed relation promises to bring
embarrassment, refusal to enter it is
justified by the law of self-respect A
Christian corporation has charter
which it may not compromise by doubt
full alliance.
The application of this principle was
never so much needed as now. The
church finds itself in danger of losing
its moral leadership. 1t cannot be blind
to the growing alienation between those
who have and those who have not. Its
message is to the entire human family,
and a deepening sense of social obliga-
ton has touched its heart. And not
| only human fellowship, but the inter-
fests of Righteousness, are at stake in
the problems of trade. The battle is on
between forces that are socially de-
structive and those that seek finer or
der of justice and human opportunity.
There is no question on which side of
this contest the church would stand.
1t is necessary for it to be exceedingly
jealous of anything that may swerve il
from it's own task. Every act must be
avoided that seems to ally the church
with the wrong side, to impede its ac-
ton or to render it's efforts and utter
ances Intellectual -
! ''The motives which constrain us t
this appeal are a deep solicitude be
cause of the corporate evils tina
threaten our nation. our sense of tn
solemn and imperative mission of tn
church as the moral educator of tn
people, and a jealous zeal lest its ener
gy and authority be impaired by an.

POP WENT THE CIGAR.

Big steamer Explodes During the
Meeting of the Fire Commissioners.
Although the first of April has passed
a rather late joke took place at the
meeting of the fire commissioners last
evening. When the board was in the
midst OF it's work President Cunning
ham offered a large fine looking cigar
ito Commissioner Kegelmeyer, which
was accepted by the latter gentleman.
Soon rings of smoke were surrounding
the genial commissioners head as he
sat back most contentedly in his chair.
He sat quite near to Clerk Metzger, who
kept watching the cigar as though it
hypnotized him. Suddenly he arose
from his seat and went into the next
room.
a moment after the clerk left the
room an explosion took place in Mr.
Kegelmeyer'S cigar and it burst into
many pieces. The commissioner was
certainly startled until he heard the
roar of laughter which arose from all
those present then he good naturally
laughed with the rest, and Chief Fam
cher, who was rushing for a fire ex-
tinguisher, was recalled.
An investigation was then Immediate
ly started to find where the loaded
Steamer came from. 1t was found
that President Cunningham had receiv-
ed the cigar from Clerk Metzger, who
in turn said he had received it from
his brother. Mr. Metzger's brother
claimed to have got the cigar from a
drummer, who had left town, and at
this point the scent was lost, as far
as all but the remains of the cigar
was concerned.
