The women of this town have labored
earnestly and long in an endeaYor to
maintain truth and sobriety in the
home, teaching their sons and daugh-
ters that these are cardinal virtues, and
are to be prieed far greater than rubies.
They have recognized the fact that
home-life is the foundation of all life,
and that municipal, state and national
existence is pure only as the home-life
is pure. The women of this city have
been the silent force, the under-current,
that has been working so effectively
through the years, the result of which
has meant the ushering in of social con-
ditions that are extremely wholesome.

{. w. Engle, Wife and Babe net
Horrible Death.

Rev. Albert Engle, pastor of the
! Swanton NJ. E. circuit, and serving a
number Of appointments in this county.
received telegram on last Thursday at
Swanton announcing the sad death of
his son, Charles W Engle, wife and
baby, near Preston, Minnesota. Mr..
Engle, the victim of the disaster, was
formerly resident of this county and
about two years ago went west and
married
The following account of the tragedy
Is taken from the Preston Times. of

About II O'Clock last night the resi-
dence of Thomas Yeast, five and a-half
miles south of town, was entirely con-
sumed by fire, and Mrs. Rachel Yeast.

c. W. Engle persisted.
Just now it happened is not known,
but the story as told by Mr.. Yeast. who
escaped after being severely burned
about the head and hands, is as follows:

was occupied by the two families, the
old people sleeping down stairs. Mr..
Engle had one room upstairs Cthe room
through which the stove pipe passes)
and his wife and baby occupied an adj
joining room. 1t is supposed that the
tipe started from the chimney and, fan
ned by the high wind which was blow
ing, had gained rapid Roadway before
Mr.. Engle was awakened. He must
have become bewildered for. instead of
looking to his wife and baby, he rushed
through the flames to the old people be
low and shouting that the house was
burning down, begged to have someone
throw something over him to put out
the flames. Mr.. Yeast promptly threw
a quilt over him and made for a window
which he broke out and called to his
wife and Charley to follow him. In
stead Mrs. Yeast started for the door
saying just as he leaped through the
window, Il am going after Rissa and
the baby The last seen of Mr.. Engle
was when ne fell or threw himself upon
the bed just vacated by Mr. Yeast.
The latter, barefooted and only clad
in his underclothing, made several at
tempts to aid the ones left behind, but
finally gave it up and hurried through
the snow to the home of his son-in-law.

GENTLEMEN:-I am in receipt of your
letter of December 31st, enclosing me a
draft for two hundred dollars in paw
ment OF my recent loss by fire. This
draft arrived just fifteen days after;the
happening of the fire, and I desire to
thank you for your promptness in pay
ing the claim. Your promptness in
paying losses is to ire the best p6ssible-
evidence that you represent companie
which are able to pay their losses. and
have no desire to take advantage of
those who insure with you. 1t will give
me pleasure to recommend you to those
who may desire to insure their proper
ties against loss by fire.
Very truly yours,

elements of charity cannot be transfer
red 1t is impossible for any combina-
ton of persons to possess or illustrate
them. This does not mean that these
great philanthropic movements should
be allowed to languish. 1t simply means
| that they are not the exemplification of
Christian charity. They are something
apart from the church and distinctly
human They have grown out of the
misery and restitution of the ages and
the general realization that man is his
brother keeper. To contend with this
mass of wretchedness, combination and
the great charity of self-sacrifcing men
are Indispensable individuals are help
less in the face of it. Church members,
while performing their religious duties.
should freely contribute to these move
ments as enlightened citizens. Indeed.
it is reasonable to expect that they will
give more freely than other people.
But the charity which Christ enioined
and which Paul and other disciples so
strongly urged upon Christians is an in
dividual virtue which cannot be eXer-
cised vicariously, and the church in
moments of unusual restitution cannot
too strongly impress its exercise-nay.
its imperative necessity Chris
tians. The church can scarcely hope to
rival the efforts of the great move
ments spoken of, but it can do nightly
work, and can very materially advance
the interests of the Gospel at the same
time.
The average person reads Paul s def
milton Of charity with admiration for its
rhetoric and seldom troubles himself to
analyze it so as to perceive its full
meaning. 1t would be exceedingly diff
cult, if not impossible, to measure up
to its requirements. Charity suffereth
long and is kind. - Charity enyieth
not" Charity vaunteth not itself; is
not pulled up" 'Beareth all things;
endureth all things. Charity never
faileth." These are few,of the quail
ties a person must possess in order to
have in full measure the Christian virtue
of charity, which is placed above all
other virtues.
Those who devote themselves to the /
reclamation of humanity in its most
deplorable stages approach nearer to
the definition of st. Paul than anv
others. But the church can scarcely |
do better in moments of unusual de
preston than to make clear to its men,
bers the meaning of Christ in enjoining
charitytand the meaning of Paul in de-
filming it. Half the troubles of this |
world come from lack of an understand /
ing of that which is attempted. Nine
tenths of the lawsuits in the courts
grow out of such misapprehensions.
The.church has a more extensive mis- /
sion than to relieve suffering by charity.
1t must also seek to bring those who !
are relieved into the fold. The mere
gift of food and clothing will not ac-
comphsh this. Such doles must be ac-
companied by the qualities with which
Paul invests charity. The givers, in |
order to do the most good to the church,
must actually feel the language which
Paul uses. His description is the es-
sence of love of ones neighbor, which
Jesus makes the cornerstone of Chris /
tianity. There can be no finer discipline /
on earth for the average man.
