Preserves Industry in

4 oNsUL General Hugh Pitcairn of

Hamburg writes that according to
the Provianteur an industry has
in recent years developed in the
Crimea the object of which Is to pre-
serve the rich fruit and vegetable sup
plies of southern Russia, chiefly for
consumption in the northern regions of
that empire. The chief branch of this
industry is the manufacture of sun
dried fruit; 1T further embraces the
manufacture of grape marmalades In
cans and glasses. OF the latter article
one factory alone is said to have a
yearly output of approximately 100000
cans Other specialties are purees,
stewed fruit, comfits, etc. The present
annual output of four factories alone is
estimated to be valued at about $780,
D00. 1t Is believed that this Industry
will develop further and that it will re-
main capable Of meeting competition,
particularly foreign, because of the low
cost of production.

Java S Coffee Crop Is
Greatly Reduced

CCCRDING to a recent telegram
~ to The Hague government from
n the governor general of Neither
lands-India, the governments
Java coffee crop for this year is esti-
mated at $4,000 piculs (picul-1 3
pounds)- In the colonial budget this
crop was estimated by the minister at
125, 100 piculs, but at the end of jan
uary last the minister was advised that
the estimate had to be revised and to
be reduced by $4,000 piculs. The re-
ports from private estates are also
very disappointing. and the exports of
Java coffee generally promise to be
very small this year. 1t is not yet
known whether the government will
reduce the number of auctions or
whether a smaller quantity will be
offered at each sale. At all events the
reduction Of revenue, calculated at 0.33
florin (fiorin-40.2 cents) per picul, will
amount to about 280,00O forms.

Again In that same valley the fu-

thine enemy into thy hand; low there
fore let us smite him. 1t was a SUI
preme hour of temptation. Why not
gain the throne by this short cut? Saul
had pursued him in the meanest and
most relentless way. If ever man
was justified in using irresponsible
power to gain his tnd 1t was here, but
for all the world he would not adopt
a wrong way to the end.
"'Destroy him not, for WHO can put
forth his hand against Jehovah's
anointed and be -iltless2' The great
modern irresponsible powers are at best
but imperfectly ontrcLed bv the state
in the interest of the common veal!
We can never secure the perfect ad-
ministration for the good of all by law.
We cannot enact devils into saints;
they must be won as David had been
to accept The fear of Jehovah as the
way of escape from evil. To learn that
the shortest way to the great end they
seek is through the common good and
by the throne of grace, that is humility
and the fear of Jehovah is riches and
honor and life"

Father Lunney said in part:
{" BE tho.l faithful unto death and

of the most characteristic institutions
of the middle ages was the so-called
order of knighthood. Under the gui-
dance of the church these men did
wonderful service in the cause Of JUS
tice. When Europe was emerging from
darkness, when the nations were only
recovering from the midnight darkness,
our holy mother the church used the
interest of the people for civilization
and religion.
"Knighthood was considered the only
occupation for men. The profession Of
arms was the only thing for the nobil-

vice and to protect virtue, justice and
truth.
Knights Carefully Chosen
"Hence she exercised great care in
tie establishment of the knighthood.
Only those worthy and of unstained
character were admitted. Their duty
was to lead an unstained life, to pro-
tect the weak, help the poor, defend
the right and the church. Their par
ticular d.ty was to be loyal to the
church ana the state. For this pur-
pose it was customary to put the can
didates through a long probation. From
THE time they were years old until
they were 81 they had to undergo a
period of preparation and probation;
to be instructed to exercise virtue and
obedience, temperance and chastity, so
that they might go forth strong and
fight the battle Of civilization.
when the probation was over the
candidates were led to the temple of
God, vested in white. red and black,
emblematic of chastity, blood and the
death awaiting at the end. They were
admitted to the knighthood, making
solemn vows before the altar to lead
lives faithful and the church sent them
forth with the admouition to be always
faithful and loyal. and with the words

DAVID THE OUTLAW
SERMONS SUBJECT
Rev. William Horace Day breaches on
Danger of irresponsible Power.
rs Finds illustration in San
Francisco

At the First Congregational church
William Horace Day, pastor, preached
yesterday morning on David. the Out
law" a part Of course of sermons
on the shepherd king. He took for his
text Proverbs 1876: "By the fear OF
Jehovah men depart from evil" Three
scenes in the life of David when he was
a fugitive from Sauls court illustrated
the growth of irresponsible power, the
danger in irresponsible power and the
reverence with irresponsible power. He
said in part:
"About David the outlaw gathered
the distressed, the bankrupt and the
discontented With members of his
own family and q priest and prophet
David was captain of a motley crowd
Four hundred joined him and he be-
came conscious of power, but that
power was altogether independent OF
the king and government. The band
grew to 600 as David extended his power
to the protection of the stockmen and
farmers Of that region, but 1t was still
irresponsible.
"Save that David felt the fear OF
Jehovah there was nothing to deter
him from committing all kinds of in
Justice A new condition of society al
ways leads to the development of such
irresponsible power. In our own time
when a single board of directors meet
ing in New York represents one-twelfth
of the wealth of the United States, and
when one man can speak as the voice
of over 100000 workingmen, when
neither merged money nor compact
labor has proper regard for the veal
of any except its own class, we are
confronted by vast irresponsible power
the like of which the world has not
seen.
Danger in Power
"The danger in irresponsible power
is seen in David's deeds in the vale OF
Maon. Nabal, whom his men had pro-
tected, insult and rail at this irrespon-
sible constabulary which David had
established m hot anger the leader
calls his band :. arms and swears that
the morning light shall not see even
a single man child spared of all that
Nabal has. The abuse Of irresponsible
power in terrible savagery as a return
for some affront is ever possible.
'The revelations in the court room at
Boise-if they shall prove tn be true
would suggest that one Of our greatest
groups of irresponsibles has forgotten
fear of God and man that 1t may reach
fair ends by foulest means. The lid
has certainly been torn off in San
Francisco till the ,hole nation has
stood appalled, at the savage abuse of
irresponsible power. While David did
abuse his irresponsible power at times
he was prevented from the most ter
rible instances OF such abuse because
even in passion he felt the fear of
Jehovah in his heart. When Abigail
came to intercede With him she was
wise enough to appeal 10 his fear OF
