Christ as Seen IN Actual Life

Christ as Seen in Actual Life.
The following is the only reliable
pen picture of Christ as seen in
actual life, and is an exquisite piece
of word painting. It is teken from
q MS. now in possession cf Lord
Kelly and is in his library. It was
copied from an original letter of
Publius Lentulus, at Rome, it being
the usual custom IT Roman govern
ors to advise the Senate and the
people of such material things as
happened in their provinces. In the
days OF Tiberius Ce gar, Publius
Lentulue, Procurator of Judea, wrote
the letter to the Senate:
There appeared in these our days
man of great virtue named Jesus
Christ, who is yet living amongst us;
and Of the Gentiles is accepted as
prophet of Truth. He raises the
dead and cures all manner of dis
eases. A man of stature somewhat
tall, and comely, such as the be.
holder may both love and fear. His
hair of the color of q chestnut full

and waving about his shoulders. In
the midst of his head seam, par

of the Nazarites. His forehead

Pleasant in conversation, mixed with
gravity. 1t cannot be remembered
that any have seen him laugh, but
many have seen him weep. ln pro-

A Missionary Institute.

Special to The State.
Leesville, July 13 The missionary
institute of the Columbia district, NJ
E. Church, South, met at LeesVile,
Wednesday at 4 p. m. Out of the
% members which comprise this
meeting only seven were absent.
Reports were heard from all the
charges represented. The adviss-
bility of holding missionary cot.
ferences in all the charges was dis
cussed. Contributions for this para
mount work of The church were in
advance of last year. The spirit Ct
missions is being cultivated, and the
prospect is encouraging. As the re-
ports were rendered some OF the
points stressed evoked discussian.
In this way much information upon
every phase of the work was given.
The following resolution va' adopted:
"Resolved, first, That We have
heard with appreciation the reports
from the Johnston and Lewiedale
charges as to the success OF their
missionar conferences.
"Resolved, second, That it is the
sense of this body that similar con-
ferepces should be held wherever
practicable under the direction of the
presiding elder and the pastor in
charge.
"Resolved, third, That we pledge our
hearty cooperation in the same with
a view of raising all missionary claims
in full"

Curious Traits of Ants.

In the proceedings of the Philadel
phia academy Miss A. M. Fields re-
cords three instances of curious traits
displayed by ants kept under observa-
ton in the laboratory at Woods HOll
Mass In the first case the actions re
corded suggest something akin to hyp-
notism, while from the third there
seems a possibility that these insects
may be able to remember and recog-
nize individuals of their own kind af-
ter a separation of several years. The
reactions of ants to vibrations is the
subject of another article in which it
is urged that it is misleading to
ascribe or deny hearing to these in
sects. They are very sensitive to the
vibrations of solids, but not to those
of air.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent,

The President has treated the poll
ticians in his party to tremendous
surprise by the selection of Charles j i.

stated that Attorney General Moody

Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out ard scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes take
place OF diseased sections of veins:
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without maturation
and in one-third the time required by
the old treatment. Chamberlain Pain
Balm acts on tEeI same principle. 1t
is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money. not to mention the incon-
venience and suffering which such
injuries entail. For sale by Chas A.
Gamm, R. II. cke, H. T. Eberle.

The efforts Of the Outdoor Art As

ancing the natural beauty Of our city

should receive every encouragen ent.
Ours is one of the most beautiful cities
in the state, with it's hundreds of hand

substantial business houses and i'm
proved streets. To the newcomer
this beauty is appreciated, perhaps, to a
greater degree than by him who has
lived here for a longer period. But
there are also places in our city which
are unsightly and detract from the
natural beauty of the place. The Out
door Art Association has ia ken up the
work of removing and improving un-
slightly objects as far as possible, and
giving valuable suggestions for

is most commendable task and will
result in adding to the rapid growth of

LANGUAGES of India,

Among the 145 distinct languages
spoken in British India are some DOS
sessing only a few hundred words.
others rivaling English, as Dr. Grfer-
son says, or Russian, as I would say,
in their copiousness; some in which
every word is monosyllable, others
in which some are elongated by ag-
glutination till they run to ten syl-
tables, like da-pa-i-ocho-akan- taken-tae-
ithaca Soutail word meaning: HE
who belongs to him who belongs to
me will continue letting himself be
made to fight" Some of these divers
tongues lack verb and noun, others

An Illinois sheriff has inaugurated

An Illinois sheriff has inaugurated
a novel campaign against thieves
which promises much. He has de-
cided to ask the press Of Illinois, Iowa
and Indiana to cooperate with the Of.
ticers of the law in making public all
cases of theft. AS soon as a theft is
reported he will send telegram to
each paper. The message will GO out
along the rural routes, and farmers
will be on the alert 1t is safe to say
that thieves will give the above COM
munity wide berth.

of Justice, is without foundation and
Secretary Metcalf has agreed to sacri-
fee his personal interests and remain
Indefinitely in the cabinet. although it
is generally expected that before the
expiration of President Roosevelt's
present term. Mr. Metcalf will be sue
ceeded as Secretary OF Commerce and
Labor by James R. Garfield. now
Commissioner of Corpora tons.
Secretary elect Bonaparte comes of
a distinguished family, being a direct
descendent of Napolean Bonaparte and
Il grandson of Jerome Bonaparte, one
time king of Westphalia. His grand
mother was the famous Baltimore
beauty, Elizabeth Patterson, whose
romantic story has been told in both
poetry and prose. His house in Balti-
more is famous for the finest collection
of relics and souvenirs of the great
First Consul and Emperor of France.
Another distinction which will fall to
Mr.. Bonaparte in his new Office will be
that he will be the first Roman Catho-
lie in the cabinet for some years.
The numerous reports regarding the
Presidents efforts to promote peace
have been exaggerated. AS related in
these letters weeks ago, the President.
early in the conflict, intimated in
III istakable terms to both nations
that he would be glad at any time to
to do all in his power to bring about a
satisfactory conclusion of the war.
Having done that he can do nothing
further in the premises until one or
the other of the opponents has indi-
Gated desire for his assistance The
mere fact th at Ambassador Casoini and
Minister Takihira occasionally call at
the White house is enough to occasion
wild rumors regarding peace negotia-
tons and, although it seems
almost certain that Russia will be COM
PEELED to sue for peace in the not
distant future, it is by no means Ger
tain that the negotiations will be OPP
ened in Washington.
The President is convinced that the
battle of the Corean straits teaches a
valuable lesson regarding the neces-
sity Of a large and a highly efficient
navy. He rejoices that the American
navy has enjoyed every advantage for
target practice and hopes it will con-
tinue to do so, while he believes that
recent development in the far east
have so far proved the correctness of
his contention that no country can be
great without great naval force that
he cannot be successfully opposed in
the next congress.
There now seems to be no doubt
that the special session of Congress
hitherto booked for October Is, will
be postponed until November and
in the opinion of your correspondent
there will be no special session what
ever. The pressure is too great and
the President feels that it would prove
of no advantage to assemble congress
only to have all its members meet in
an exceedingly bad humor.
