ST. ANTHONY.
The Temptations of the Father Of
Monasticism.

The Temptations of the Father of
Monasticism.
What were the temptations Of St
Anthony st. Anthony was oae of the
earliest names placed on the calendar.
He is called the father Of monasti-
cism because his life and teachings
were really the foundation of the
many nonkish oEvlers Of a medieval
times. He was born Ia city Of Egypt
in 251 A. D. of parents who were both
wealthy and pious. and he early de
cidea to give his life up to religious
contemplation. He went into the vii
derness, taking up hts solitary abode
in an old ruin on high hill, where he
disciplined himself tn austeriy. But
his devotaons were interrupted by a
protracted series of sadly Irrelevant
haHucinations, believed to be sent by
the devil to tempt him aside from
holy life. He was visited successfully
by visions Of all the idolatries of the
early world, by the princes and poten-
tates of history and their wives and
daughters, by Solomon and tile queen
Of Sheba, by the gods and goddesses
Of Greece and Rome, especially by Di-
ana and Venus, and other interesting
characters. According to the legend,
his devoutness at last breaks the pow
er Of the visions. and they leave him
forever. He remained twenty years In
his lonely ruin, then, yielding to the
wishes of other anchorites, went to
Memphis and there founded the hrst
monastery. which was little more than
a group Of cells. After six years OF
teaching he returned to his desert
home and ut last died there at the age
of 105 years. The French novelist Gus
taye Flaubert has written an entire

Christ.

Chicago, Sept. 24.-John Alexander
Dowie, shorn of the last vestige OF his
spiritual and temporal power over the
people of Zion City, delivered his part
ing message to the faithful in Shiloh
house yesterday afternoon. He expects
to start for Mexico today. He talked
of his plans to return to Zion City
next summer and build great man
sion for the coming of Christ and the
dawn of the millennium, but said it
was possible that the Lord might call
him home before that time.
In his sermon he declared the dis
ease from which he was suffering was
not a bodily one, but just a broken
heart, and that his wife was the cause
of it. He said she had abused him
he was willing to forgive her if she
would repent.
Il am not going to Mexico to stay"
he said. Il want to build a great house
on Mount Carmel to entertain the chill
dren of God feel that must build
it for the coming of the King. He
will come soon.
Il shall come back and come into my
own. My attorneys have appealed my
case, and I feel that the Lord will not
desert me- l believe that God will send
his Son to me when the time of the
millennium comes
Live peaceable lives, my people. Get
all the money you can, save all you
can, and give all you can. You have
promised to pay your tithes regularly,
money now. They have tied up my
estates, so that I can get nothing.
1T may be that this is the last time
that I will look upon the faces of my
people. If it were so I would not be
sorry. I would go contented.
II am not a sick man in many re-
spects. My disease is broken heart.
I have lived with Mrs. Dowie for
twenty-five years a broken-hearted
man. She abused me every day. do
not know that l ever shall see her
again / shall be a lonely man, but l
want you to help make my lot as easy
as you can. If my wife repents I will
forgive her. but 1 never will restore
her to her former position"
After the service DR.. Dowie was car
ried thru the rooms where his few
faithful ones were gathered. The tears
streaned down his face as they bore
him by. He reached out his hands to
touch the faces of the children. At
the first landing of the great stairway
his servants placed him down. He
turned and faced the people, and when
the song they were singing was ended
he stretched out his hands and game
them the final apostolic benediction.

Oak and MistIetoe.
dondon Chronicle.l

A review in the Outlook rebukes an
American writer for wondering wheth-
er there is any natural connection"
between the oak and the mistletoe. see
ing how constantly they are associated.
'In Great Britain" says the reviewer,
1.-THE oak is one of the trees on which
the mistletoe VIGOROUSLY does not
grow And it is true that the Eng
lish child learns in an early lesson of
the honor in which the Druids held Il
mistletoe that by rare chance did grow
on an oak. But the reviewed book, be-
ing American. "is amply justified. The
hills that surround the Lick Observa-
tory, in California, and that bear its
domes on their highest summit, are en-
tirely covered with oaks. and it is MOI
too much to say that every oak carries
a bunch OR punches of mistletoe.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. PA race riot
on Decatur street, a thoroughfare es-
pecial,y freqnented by negroes, result
Cd Saturday night because of assaults
committed on white women here. Ten
negroes are known to have been kill
Cd. The mob was beyond control of
the police. The negroes were pulled
from street cars and beaten to death.
Five assaults on white women by me-
groes were made here Saturday after
noon and evening within the city linz
its. Mrs. f. Arnold, in the western part
Of the city, was attacked in the yard
behind her home at Z o'clock and es-
capped by screaming for help. Mrs
Chaffan, living near the Soldiers
Home, was attacked in a similar man
her. A posse is searching the woods
for her assailant.
Seven similar attacks on white wo-
men by negroes occurred last week in
or close to Atlanta.
Governor Terrell has ordered to At
lanta seven companies of the state mil
itia, two companies from Macon and
one each from jackson, Barnesville,
Griffin, Rome and Lindale. These are
on duty in the streets. With the local
companies, the militia on duty is some
thing more than 1000 men besides a
battery Of light artillery. Attic ur-
gently requested to declare martial
law Governor Terrell has SO far declin-
ed to do so.
Mayor Woodward has issued a re-
quest that all citizens white and black,
years Of age have been ordered off the
remain off the streets. The saloons
have been ordered closed, and all boys
under 81 years of age have been order
ed off the streets.
A meeting of bankers, business and
professional men, representing the best
element of Atlanta citizenship was held
Sunday afternoon, at which Governor
Terrell, Mayor Woodward, Colonel
Robert Lowery and Colonel James
English were present. Speeches were
warmly applauded in which the killing
OF half a score of innocent negroes and
the injuring of score or more OF
whites and blacks were condemned as
a reflection on the city, state and the
south.
The heralding OF recent assaults on
white women by negroes by flaming
headlines in the extras Of local papers
was condemned and the earnest re-
quest was made that hereafter no spec
ial editions covering these topics be
issued. Such "inflammatory headlines"
we're declared to have been direct
Indictment to the outrages of Satur-
day night.
Resolutions Were adopted urging the
city council to enact laws closing low
negro dives, in which 1t was declared
much of the crime among the negroes
has Its origin. Closer restriction of sa-
looms for both whites and blacks was
also demanded.

THE LOVE OF SAND.
MnNS Unconscious Harking Back to
Primitive Times.


The love Of sand is universal, felt by
all and at all ages. The child finds in
in a ready and a plentiful material for
giving something Of definiteness to the
world of his childish imagination, and
when experience shall have proved the
real world to be less pleasant and not
expressible in sand he nevertheless as
grown man tacitly admits the attrac-
tion Of the old time medium and
spends his holidays upon it. No water
ing place need trouble as to its pros
perity if it has a broad forefront OF
sand.
Probably so general and ingrained
love is only to be accounted for as the
result of sympathetic and uncon-
scious .harking back" to the feel Of
the life on the dry sandy soils of the
east, upon which man first wandered
and in which he first delved. He can
sit or lie with greater comfort and
ease-as he originally sat, without
chair, or lay, without a couch-upon
sand than upon any other kind OF
earth. and upon sand he reverts read
lily and without fear of convention to
primeval barefootedness. Possibly even
the charm of the "sanded floor'-in the
concrete to our ferefathers. the COM
fort and coziness OF cherry inn perlors
and kitchens. warm with the ruddy
heat of glowing logs, on snowy nights
may also be due to vaguely assertive
instinct.
In proof it may be readily concluded
that far distant man would not have
been long in finding out the advar-
tages Of dry cave as a dwelling
place. 1t would be found most readily
in soft, friable rocks The natural and
further easy expansion Of the cave to
meet growing demands for house room
by scraping down Of roof and sides
would result in sanded floor. Litter
of rude cave living and housekeeping
could be more easily swept out with
the leafy bough or bunch of sedges
acting as the original broom when
mixed with sand than without Its aid.
The savage family which swept Its
cave out oftenest and most thoroughly
would certainly be the healthiest and
strongest.-London Spectator.

go into the waste basket. and we are

New York Evening Post inclines5 to The
belief that Secretary Taft viii yet ac-
cept the offer of a~places upons thet5su-

zeal career will close next autumn.
There is but one thing which will keep
Mr.. Taft in the cabinet, in the opinion
of the correspondent, and that is. the
situation of the Fiipines, in whom he
takes fatherly interest since his serv-
ice as governor. Of the. islands. Mr..
Taft was deeply solicitous for%the pas
sage of the Philippines tariff bill and
was gratifed when it passed the house.
He fully expected to- see it taken up
in the senate, and. his ssdisapp
when it was smothered in committee
was great: - ii. .y<s,z .a,Ssl
There. is. however, a. chance that the
bill may, be rescued even during the
present session. A bad impression was
made when The senate, yielding to the
greedy and aggressive attitude of the
sugar and tobacco interests, refused
even to discuss. the measure openly. If
the senate can be convinced that this
action on its part tends to make the
fear of a Democratic house more imn1i-
nent, the bill may be taken up. secre-
tarys Taft will await the outcome in his
