Worry and Fear Removed.

It is not religion, but the lack of
it that makes people unhappy. Yet
how strangely and how widely the
opposite view prevails. There are
many who think of religion not only
as CALLING drudgery, but as the
surest source of moroseness, melan-
choly and unhappiness of life. Their
idea is that religion is a system of
suffering to which many people are
willing to submit here in order that
they may not suffer hereafter-that
religions only happiness is in the
future, it's rewards ai.er death. In
stead, the real fact is that religion is
a thing of present JOY and ever con-
tinuing blessedness. It is the glad
dest, happiest thing in all this world.
"Her ways are ways of pleasantness
and all her paths are peace"
It is religion that gives us the
bright things in life and sin the dark
things, and not vice versa. Religion
goes down to the deepest springs O..
our mental and spiritual well-being.
It brings untold measures of peace
and joy. It takes the sting out of
the past and it takes the worry out
Of the present. 1t ! .kes the fear out
of the future.-Ihe Rev. G. B. F..

With much deliberation the presi-
dent remarked that in every large
work there was always some one to
ind something that was not done as
it should have been; but the employees
| should on no account pay attention
70 such criticisms as the critics would
sink out of sight while the work the
men were doing and had done would
remsin long after all criticism had
seen forgotten. President Roosevelt
said also he was so impressed with
The magnitude and greatness Of this
work that he would like to see one Of
ais sons engaged therein. He congrat-
alated all the heads Of departments
IN the work being done and with es-
oecial warmth he congratulated Capt.
George R. Stanton on his success in
maintaining order in the canal zone
and in perfecting the splendid po-
ice force under his control. In con-
slrsion the president said he would
ike to remain longer on the isthmus,
,rt that it was necessary for him to
get back to his work in the United

but who will admit at once and with
out discussion that to trade the souls
life for material success is to strike
a poor bargain. I have yet to meet
the thinking man, whose opinions are
worth snap of my finger, who sus-
tains any other proposition save that
a godly life is the only sure founda-
tion of society and the only guarantee
of the permanency and efficiency of
success.
Believing these latter truths to be
divine why, then, do we hesitate to
connote logic with action? Why do
we refrain to parallel our academic
conclusions with definite effort. Why
do we refuse consistency a hearing
and continue to serve the god of ma
terial success?
My friends. the whole question Of
service and success is a matter of
getting or being, of Self-aggrandize-
ment or of self-realization and soul
culture. Getting is as natural as
breathing But we breathe not for
the sake of breathing, but in order
to live. Getting, the requirement OF
temporal wealth, may be a means to
the culture of our souls. When SO
used riches are blessing. That man
is wisest who makes all things in this
life tend toward his souls develop
ment Let us teach our youth that
growth in godliness is the prime
function, the principal task of hu-
man endeavOr. Let us tell our young
men and our maidens that it is best
to serve God and to grow constantly
into the graces and beauties of
Christlikeness. Let us send home to
the young and impressionable hearts
Of our boys and our girls the change
less and eternal truth that it can
never profit a man to gain the whole
world and lose his own life within
God Then shall we have inculcated
the true philosophy of life and hast
ened the coming of the kingdom OF
the God of Christ our Lord.

How to Learn Love.

It is true that love cannot be
forced, that it cannot be made to or
der, that we cannot love because we
ought or even because we want. But
we can bring ourselves into the pres
ence of the lovable. We can enter
into friendship through the door of
discipleship. We can learn love
through service.-Hugh Black.

 Last Night
His Criticism of the Presi- dents Criticism of a Fed eraI Judge.

Warm Springs, Ga, July 19.-Dis- trict Attorney Jerome delivered an ad- dress on Public Opinion: Its Power, Some of it's Evils and Injustices," be- fore the Georgia Bar association to- night In the course of his address MT. Jerome referred to President Roosevelt's criticism of a United States court judge, saying: There is one injustice which public opinion not infreduently does. It is one which law yers can do much to correct and that is the criticism of judges for decisions which they could not avoid making if they obey the law. The recent spec tacle of the nations chief executive, himself not a lawyer, criticizing in a public document a federal judge for his decision on a point of law has not believe, commended itself to our pro- fession. The laws are ever laws. Pub- lie opinion made them and can change them.
 Every citizen has right to criti- cize them and to seek their amendment or repeal but while they are our laws we want our judges to obey them and not substitute for them something they deem in accord with thing so muta- ble and different to ascertain as pub- lie opinion"
 Tn the beginning, MT. Jerome said there wer men, guided by a higf sense of duty as they saw it, regardless: ! of the majority opinion which we cal public opinion.

PROOF OF CONSPIRACY
 IN THE HARTJE CASE
MiIIiOnaire'S Friends Admits His Part in It
They Paid COachman to Defame the Defendant and Threatened Him With Arrest Unless He Stuck the Story.

Welsohns is a close friend of Augustus Hartje, and is accused with Hartje and Hooe of conspiracy against Mrs. Hartje
 Hooe, months ago, made a deposition in which he said he had been intimate with Mrs. Hartje. He afterward re- pudiated it. and is now in jail on charge of perjury. Welsohns main tained steadily that Augustus Hartje knew nothing of the fact that he had given HoOe money. and admitted that Hartje's attorneys had told Hooe that if he was not telling the truth they would prosecute him.
 Attorney J. Scott Ferguson. for Mr. Hartje, said they had a letter showing that the defense had taken the deposi- tion of witness knowing that his tes- timony was false, and that they also would show that an attempt had been made to tamper with witnesses.
 Mrs. Hartje's counsel opened up a new line in the defense by presenting evidence to show that Hartje had vis- ited a disorderly house and had met an immoral woman there. A servant from the house Is to so testify, and Nadine, the coachman, is to corrobo- rate the testimony.
 More testimony on handwriting was also taken during the day. when Sam uel c. Malone, an expert, of Baltimore, was called for Mrs Hartje He testi- fled along the same lines as those on that side which had preceded him.

DEFENSE UNDISCLOSED
 IN THE BOYD CASE
The Prisoner Held to the Grand Jury
 in $I,OOO.

The preliminary examination of James T. Boyd. charged with sending an obscene letter through the mail to a little girl at Mesa, was held yester- day before Commissioner Johnstone. The court room was filled with cu- rious crowd. drawn by hints of the character of the letter, which it was said was the raciest character. But the audience was doomed to disap- pointment. Before the beginning of the proceedings. United States Attor- ney Alexander moved that on account of the nature of the hearing, the crowd be excluded from the court room. That was done. but if the crowd afterwards learned what actually took place there it might have been thankful that it escaped the stifling of the room. Not word was said that might not have been uttered with perfect propriety in a sewing circle.
 The nature of the accusation was made known and 1t was presumed by the officers of the government that the commissioner had informed himself of the character of the offensive letter. The commissioner had already dis gusted himself with wading through H. buI dS d mater or form he glanced over 1t again. The little girl to whom 1t had been sent identified it. No de- fense was disclosed and the examin- alton was over. Boyd was held to the federal grand jury in the sum of 5000.
 It is doubtful whether the bond will be furnished. Boyd is interested in mining property which mining men say is worth not less than $3O, ,O0O They say he could raise the amount of his bond by transferring his interest in this property but it is not likely that he will do so.
 It is thought too, that he could easi- 1 ly secure his freedom by applying to his cousin, John Boyd. a millionaire of San Francisco, who has always taken deep interest in him and has frequently offered to assist him. The cousin was one. of the early miners oe California and made his fortune al Bodie.
 This proceeding against Boyd has brought out the information that he
 has for some time been manifestine a weakness for little girls. his atten-
 tons to whom had become so offensive 1 that few days ago a resident of this city threatened to kill him if he saw him speaking to his ten wear old | daughter again.
