a. QUESTION OF MONEY.
Bishop Galloway Discusses When the
Church May Or May Not
Accept Il.

jackson, Miss, April 5, 1905.
Bishob G. b. Galloway was ask
ed for an expression of opinion in
regard to the subject Of tainted
money which is now being dis
cussed on account of the accept
ance by the American Board Of
Commissioners for Foreign Mis-
sions Of 500, 900 given it by John
d. Rockefeller, president Of the
Standard Oil Company. The Bis
hop gave out the following:
In response to your request
for my views on the now much
discussed subject Of contaminated
money, and the propriety of ac-
cepting it for Christian purposes,
/ have this to say, briefly: AS to
the particular case which has pre-
cipitated this discussion, ! have
not been able to appreciate the ar
gument for declining the gener-
GUS gift to the cause Of Christian
missions. To do so, for the rea-
sons assigned, is to pass upon the
ethics Of business enterprise in
the absence Of all the facts. It is
possible to manufacture sin and
then condemn one with it. On the
general subject, these thoughts
have occurred:
First There is no moral quail
ity in a dollar.
Second Its ethical signifi-
canoe is determined solely by the
methods employed to earn it, or
the uses to which it may be put.
Third The recipient Of that
dollar, as a voluntary offering or
il business exchange, does not
necessarily assume responsibility
for the methods BY which it was
earned.
Fourth There may be condi-
tions, expressed or implied,
which do transfer responsibility,
and, therefore, make it impossi-
BILE for a Christian conscience to
accept it.
It seems to me that the princi
pie for safe guidance in all such
cases is this: Money gained by
unethical means with an avoWed
and agreed purpose Of deVoting it
to a Christian enterprise, cannot
be received. That dignif1es the
methods employed, condones the
wrong, sets aside the divine stat
ute against doing evil that good
may come, and makes Christiani-
ty at once the patron and bene-
ficiary of evil. We may not In
quire how voluntary offerings
were made. 1t is not for us to
discover whether every dollar cast
into the Lords treasury was i'll
gotten or honestly earned. In
deed, we may be morally sure that
q certain contribution was the
fruit of an unapproVed business
and yet very properly accept it.
But when the person proposes to
ply his trade for the purpose of
helping the church, both his prop
osition and offering must be de-
clined. In the one case the church
assumes no responsibility in the
other, it becomes a partner ii the
business. With that principle
clearly IN mind, we have rule
for determining what course to
pursue.
IL know certain body of ex-
celIent Christian missionaries,
who, by resolution, declined to
accept gifts Of money from heath
en-, for hospital and school work,
on the ground that to do SO would
be a concession to and approval Of
heathenism. | take exactly the
opposite view that the heather.
by his offering, makes concessions
to Christianity and it's institu
tions, and the gift should be glad
III and gratefully accepted.

His Thirty.Eiehth Birthday.

The friends and neighbors Of Jesse
Grow conceived a surprise and last Fri
day morning drove TO his home in the
vicinity Of Barnett, taking with them
well filed baskets and refreshments so
that all details might be ready for a day
of pleasure. They found Mr.. Grow in
the field blowing, but he was o o reliev.
ed of his actual labor and introduced to
the assemblage who had coiie to cele-
brate his 3Sth birthday anniversary, hav-
ing kept accurate tab on the date.
Matters were soon shaped up and the
ladies got busy The neat country
home was surrendered to them for the
time, a long table was spread and the
baskets emptied. When fully prepared
and arranged the festal board presented
a feast Of good things. Then all the
guests present were invited to eat drink
and be merry, and it is needless t. say
that they did SO, nc appetite being neg
lected or left with a tint of hunger. After
the feast was enjoyed several hours were
spent in social confab and the affair
throughout va as complete as was the
surprise on the head Of the family, while
1t was pleasing TO his estimable wife and
her happy guests.
Those present from Versailles were
John Allen and wife, parents of Mrs.
Crow, Miss Maude Grow, daughter,
Fred Heineman and wife, +. d. Harrison
and wife, Mrs. Charles Price and little
son and Mrs. John Wassung. Nearby
n%eighbors present were James Campbell
and family. William Radcliffe and family
aud Cal. Silvey and family. Mr.. Crows
3Sth birthday anniversary was one which
will be held in pleasant remembrance,
and all those present wished him many
happy returns of the annual event, on
dispensing for their respective homes.

Clean Sport at West Point.

In the July McClure's Henry Beach
Needham concluding his article. The
College Athlete" draws the deadly par
allel between the conduct OF athletics at
the u. S. Military and Naval Academies
and at the big universities. Among
Uncle Sans cadets and middies athletics
are wholesome and proper part of their
curriculum, and sports are kept in their
right relationship to work.
The comparison Mr.. Needham makes
between the expenditures at the academies
and al the universities is the strongest
condemnation OF the system which permits,
as at Yale last year, an expense list exceed
ing SIS, 900, and receipts that notwith-
standing this enormous outlay allowed a
profit OF S3I,22z 3 from athletics, while
the departments OF learning were piing
up deficit OF SAL 67o.
IA West Point, in 1904, football cost
only S5,72IS8 as agains. SIS $40 81 at
Harvard, and S26,6o6.o6 at Yale. West
Point defeated Yale at football, therefore
a comparison between the two of expenses
in this branch OF athletics is reasonable.

costs about fifteen dollars per week, OF
which he himself contributes a third or
less hence, the net charge to the Yale
association for the football training table
of $I,8II. AS against this sum West
Point expended just $50 Thus Yale
squanders about So 900 year on exirav-
agant living for her athletes in all
branches OF sport, and Harvard and
Princeton are not far behind in this ex-
travagance.
In the Yale financial statement there is
a charge of SI,549 for "trophies." Tro-
plies includes gold and silver football and
large Photographic groups Of teams and
individuals, handsomely framed; these
are the spoils of the star athlete. There
is no corresponding item in the report
