CRUSHING THE SERPENT.

Cardinal Gibbons recent pronuncia-
mento and the kindred action of the
Baltimore annual Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church, oppos-
ing the constitutional amendments to
be voted upon in November in the
State of Maryland, has in all probabil-
ity sounded the death knell of this in
inquitous and un-American measure,
or more fittingly expressed, has likely
caused it to die "a bornin,n since the
hated bill is in embryo, and can have
no real existence as a compulsory
regulation until sanctioned by popu-
lar vote. With the influence of two
such great moral and religious insti-
buttons as the Catholic and Methodist
churches arrayed against it, welding
beyond question the balance of power
those crafty politicians of the Demo-
cratic ring, who are promoting the
franchise amendment for dangerous
and brutally selfish partisan purpose
are destined to defeat ere the strug-
gle is half begun.
Rev. y. J. Gill, formerly pastor of
the Centre street NJ. f. church, Cum
berland, who Tathered the resolution
opposing the franchise amendment
made an eloquet appeal for human
liberty in which he said:
I'VE do not want to establish svs-
tenn of caste in America. We talk
about the casts in India, which shuts
out the light of liberty. Today we are
in danger of establishing a system of
caste that is more cruel than any sys-
tenn OF caste in the world. Can we
be consistent and do such things:
Must we not as Christians stand for
the rights and freedom of humanity?
We make loud protestations of our
interest in the African race. We have
a good institution for the uplifting
morally, spiritually and intellectually
of these people. 1t would be better
for the Methodist Episcopal church
to close all its doors of learning and
leave them in the dark without Oh.
portunity than to give them these
things and then put them in a posi-
ton of contempt. This resolution
adopted by the Legislature was aimed
directed at the negroes. Every reform
in the state of Maryland has been
voted for by the negro voters, and
the reason they are to be disfranchis-
ed is because they stand for all that
is right and good
While the resolution did not carry
by an unanimo us vote, n clergyInen

follows:
WHEREAS, A proposed amendment
to the Constitution of Maryland to re-
strict the suffrage is to be submitted

jerks deemed this query to be unan-

They were busy again until night
fell. Sitting down for little while be-
fore retiring to rest, they discussed for
the hundredth time the probabilities Of
speedy succor. This led them to the
topic of available supplies, and the
sailor told Iris the dispositions he had

~ perfected his defenses and anx-
iously scanned the ocean for sign of
friendly smoke or hostile SAIL This re-
spite would not have been given to
him were it not for. the lucky bullet
which removed two fingers and part of
a third from the right hand of the
Dyak chief. Not even a healthy saw
age can afford to treat such a wound
lightly, and ten days elapsed before the
manned robber was able to move the
injured limb without a curse.
Meanwhile each night jerks slept
less soundly. Each day his face be-
came more careworn. He began to
realize why the island had not been
visited already by the vessel which
would certainly be deputed to search
for them. She was examining the
great coast line of China and Siam.
It was his habit to mark the progress
Of time on the rudely made sundial,
which sufficiently served their require
ments as clock. Iris happened to
watch him chipping the forty-fourth
notch on the edge of the horizontal
block of wood.
Have we really been forty-four
days here?" she inquired after count
ing the marks with growing astonish-
ment.
II believe the reckoning is accurate"
he said. "The Sirdar was lost on the
18th of March, and I make this the list
Of May"
1T seems to be a tremendous time;
indeed, in some respects, it figures in
my mind like many years. That is
when I am thinking. Otherwise, when
busy, the days fly like hours.''
1T must be convenient to have such
an elastic SCALE"
"Most useful. I strive to apply the
quick rate when you are grumpy"
Iris placed her arms akimbo, plant
ed her feet widely apart and surveyed
jerks with an expression that might
almost be termed impudent. They
were great friends, these two, now.
When the urgent necessity for con-
tinuous labor no longer spurred them
to exertion during every moment Of
daylight, they tackled the box of books
and read, not volumes which appealed
to them in common, but quaint tones
in the use Of which jerks was tutor
and Iris the scholar.
1t became fixed principle with the
girl that she was very ignorant, and
she insisted that the sailor should
teach her. For instance, among the
books he found treatise on astrono-
my. 1t yielded keen delight to both
to identify constellation and learn
all sorts Of wonderful things concern
ing it.
AS a variant jerks introduced a
study of Hindustani. His method was
to write short sentence and explain
in detail its component parts. She
knitted her brows in the effort to mas
ter the ridiculous complexities of a
language which, instead Of simply say
ing Take or Bring" compels one to
say '"Take-go' and '"Take-come."
One problem deied solution-that of
providing raiment for Iris. The united
skill Of the sailor and herself would
not induce unraveled cordage to supply
the need of thread. It was either too
weak or too knotty, and meanwhile the
girls clothes were falling to pieces.
