SAFETY
IN SILENT PARTY,
SAYS {. s. BLACK
Declares Independent Thinkers
Are a Greater Force Than
Ever Before.

Deputy Grand Chief Templar Edward
S. Black, of the International Order of
Good Templars, in his lecture in the
Bethlehem Congregational Church. UNI
der the auspices of Frances E. Willard
Lodge, 1. o. G. r., on 1.-THE New Patri
otism,' discussed the problems of ex-
else, child labor, trusts and political
corruption. In part he said:
"One of the greatest evils in this
country is the dangerous power welded
by corrupt political machines. Good
men nave proved to be very bad citi-
zens, in that they have neglected their
political duties by remaining away
from primary meetings. Another cause
that has materially increased the owe
of political machines is the insane de-
Votion to two party names that has
characterized our people in general.
"There is, however, in every free
State a third party, little heard of,
without organization, which does not
seek office, seldom holds meetings. and
owns no banners. 1t holds the balance
of power, and it silently decides the
elections, and on the whole in the right
way. This party is composed of the
citizens who think for themselves.
1.-The fact hat this party is larger
now than in any previous period of our
history is one of the most promising
indications that the future of our ma
ton is safe.
"A noble exhibition of political in
dependence and bravery was witnessed
Trenton the other day, when Assem-
blyman William r. Martin, the Repub-
Assembly leader, and thirteen of
fellow Republican members bolted
the Republican caucus in the cause of
political freedom and i the interests of
the people"

The Earliest Hospitals.

Since the earliest times there have
been some sort Of places which were
designed for hospital work, although at
first they were little more than shelters
or cheaply built almshouses. In the
Roman camps there was a medical staff
to look after the wounded.
Among the earliest hospitals on rec
ord is that said to have been founded
by Valens in Caesarea 37O-SO A. D. and
the one built in Rome by Fabiola, a
Roman lady, although, like most others
of that and even later times, both in
situations probably were almshouses as
we'll.
The origin Of our present hospitals is
traced to the monastic arrangements
for the care Of the sick and INDECENT.
Every monastery once housed the sick
and convalescent.
Almost the earliest record Of the
building of hospital in England is in
The life of Lanfranc, archbishop Of
Canterbury, who in 1880 founded two,
one for leprosy and one for ordinary
diseases. In the eighteenth century
London, between 1719 and 1747, estab-
lished five public and five special hos
pitfalls. In Ireland, between 1926 and
l774, there were five public and three
special ones established in Dublin. one
In Cork, one in Limerick, and in 1907
pne in Observation-Disclosures Post.

DIR. Chapman on the Drink Evil.

Some men have thought it would
be good thing to be Christian for
awhile. What is Christian? A
Christian is an honest man. He is a
good husband, good father, he is
faithful to his employer, he is clean,
he is true to his God. II you should
blot out heaven eternity I'd be a
Christian because then / might know
heaven here.
Every man has some sort of cave
of refuge. Sometimes it is a cave of
dissipation. 1 got letter the other
day. don't know If it was from man
or woman, but the writer had sinned.
Sinned first three years ago. That sin
brought a misery that cried out. 1t
matters not what the sin is. All sin
is bondage. The cave may be drunk
enness. I do not speak of that first
because it is the worst sin. 1t is the
most common. No, it is not the worst.
I'd rather have drunkard come into
my home and meet my family than to
have the man, be he ever so successful
in all the affairs of life, who was lech-
erous.
The speaker quoted John B. Cough
as saying he would rather be the foul
est drunkard who ever staggered into
hell than sa1oonkeeper. But" he
continued, don't you blame the sa-
loonkeeper. How did they get all
those licenses? You did it. Your
votes did it. There isn't man here,
there isn't man in all the world who
could ever say he got my vote to down
my boy. I wouldn't call myself a
Christian and then act like devil.
There are not two positions today for
the Christian man when it comes to
the saloon. But if you are a saloon
keeper and want to get out of the
business-well, haven't much money,
but I will share my last dollar with
you and help you in every way to get
into some other business. If you are
drunken man, give it up. Some men
tell me they can give it up at any
time. 1t has no great hold on them.
Well, that is the time to give it up
before it has hold on you-before it
is too late"

Bridge Across Bay.

Baltimore, April 14.-The feasibility
of building bridge across the Chesa-
peake Bay will shortly come before
the executive committee of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers'As Association
plans for which have been prepared
for the consideration of the members.
1t is planned to operate trolley sys-
tenn to the Eastern Shore, which, by
means of the bridge, would reach Bal
timore. 1t is argued that the trade
advantages would be considerable.
The complaint has been that the peo-
pie of the Eastern Shore have not suf-
fcient transportation facilities for
reaching this city, but are induced to
go to Philadelphia. With the East
ern Shore honey-combed with trolley
lines, which is predicted, it is argued
that a vast volume of business would
be brought to Baltimore which now
goes elsewhere.
