 DIR MACARTHUR'S LECTURE.
 Rev Dr Robert Stuart Macarthur, one of the foremost present day American preachers and pastor of the Calvary Baptist church in New York city, has been engaged to de- liver an address at the First Baptist church on Monday evening, March IS. For his subject he has taken The Empire of the Car. the Great Bear of the North" it is an entertain ing as well as a very instructive sub ject. A widely known and justly hOnOred educator in western state writes: T have heard Dr Macarthur in four of his historical lectures. and have not hesitated to say that I be- lieye he has divine call to popular ize unfamiliar history. By prolonged study he has gained masterful knowledge of the history of Russia, Japan. Spain, India and other coun- tries: and by long rhetorical training and special gifts in oratory, he has acquired the ability to give the re- suits of his study so as greatly to interest and inspire popular audi-- ences. His lectures show as much familiarity with history as do the Ice. lures of Dr John Lord; but, unlike Dr Lord. Dr MacArthur delivers his lectures without even scrap of paper to give him facts or dates. In his lower register his voice is soft. sweet and musical and in denuucia- tlon and appeal. 1t rises to a trumpet blast, stirring the emotions and conl- polling immediate decisions. Traces of his Highland Scotch ancestry are discovery in his tones while his careful mastery of the best English and American writers and speakers is constantly in evidence. In articu- lation enunciation and pronunciation many public teachers gladly accept as model. His lectures at Chautau- quas and in Lyceum courses are stim- ulative of patriotic impulse intellect ual endeavor and moral easnestness." Dr MacArthur's visit to this city should attract very large audience.

USE OF SULPHUR IN
CLARIFYING MOLASSES
Government Expert Making
Investigation.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, Nov. IA
(SpeciaD H. w. Wiley, chief of
the bureau of chemistry, is here for
the purpose of investigating the eff
fects of sulphur as a means of clari-
flying molasses.
In other words, Dr. Wiley will Off

of sulphur as a clarifying agent in
the manufacture of molasses, one of
the States chief industries and one
that annually represents an output

The provisions of the bill in it's

than wished for by the Sugar and
molasses industries of the State and
the threatened elimination of sui

FORTUNE TELLERS
ARE ORGANIZED
Disclosure in Recent Case
of FIim-FIam.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Nov. A.
(SpeciaD tellers in this
city and in Camden have a perfected
organization, with headquarters III
Philadelphia for mutual protection.
They have a language of their own to
hide and communicate trade Sc
crets and king" to rule them.
These facts were disclosed in the
course of an investigation by De-
Elective Smith, of Camden, which re-
7sulted in the arrest of "Martel,' who
makes his living by peeps into the
future that would have sent him to the
Salem witches stake if he had lived
a few hundred years ago. He has
been accused by Mrs. Margaret JOS
ephs' of 327 North Fifth street, this
city, of taking her $500 farm and $500
in cash payment for elairvoyant pre-
dictiOns that didn't come true
Smith learned that the mediums
have a remarkable organization, with
headquarters in Philadelphia, and the
man in charge is known as King.
He also learned that they have a reg

ular code. He learned that Camden
was set down as trouble" and was
marked "3". This, interpreted, means
that in Camden the mediums are in
trouble, and that the officials indicated
by IS" are on their trail, 1t is also
developed that 'Caronna" had made
a grand" In their yenacular a
grand" means $1,000, leaf 500.
]. Smell, who was arrested last week
in Camden, is known to the society of
clairvoyants and fortune tellers as
"Caronna," and that his securing of a
grand" meant that he had gotten
$1,000
Mrs. Josephs sought the advice of
"Martel," who was in business at 416
Broadway, with the object of getting
rid of a tenant. The man, it is said,
prevailed upon her to dispose of the
property, and as a mark of special
favor he agreed to purchase it him
self After obtaining the deed for
the property he told Mrs. Josephs, it
is charged, that he would send her a
check for what was due her. Moth
ing was forthcoming, she declares.
Then in the meantime "Martel" per-
suaded the widow, she says, to per-
nit him to invest $500 of her cash,
which was all she had of her estate.
He is said to have agreed to increase
this to 81 900 and Mrs. Josephs de-
clares she was to get monthly diyi-
dend of $12. 8 This was in July last,
and the woman says she did receive
her first installment, but never a cent
after that. Then "Martel' suddenly
disappeared.

Sulphur Fattening

Exacting experiments conducted
under the auspices Of local sugar ex-
perts have shown on the contrary that
molasses containing an even greater
percentage of sulphur than that OF
ordinary manufacture, is not only not
deleterious to health, but is positively
fattening and a tissue and blood build
err. 1t remains to be seen whether
the same results will be obtained in
the series of tests to be made of
molasses at Evergreen plantation by
DR.. Wiley in the next few days.
Il will make positive tests of mo-
lasses in which sulphur is used as a
clarifying agent, said he, followed
by similar tests made with molasses
in which sulphur has not been used
My conclusions will not be made pub
lie however, until my return to
Washington, and will be made direct
to Secretary Wilson, who will be
guided by his best judgment in maxi
ing them known.
