Taft Lacks 135 Votes.

Taft is not yet nominated by
1875 votes, and if he fails to get
the Nomination on the first ballo+,
Hughes will loom up as the
mighty man from the east. If
all the delegates stand pat" we
may yet see peace and tranquility

ed; who knows but what every
time Taft speaker on the plat
form makes an enthusiastic
speech, some one will rise up,
lik4 Banquos Ghost, and ask:
who shot up Brownsville?' OF
course Mr.. Taft nor any Of us
know-no one knows save Purdy
and Darlington. But the ques-
ton is: we cannot afford to lose
the election just because some
one "shot up Brownsville" We
would rather have the whole state
of Texas, with Jeff Davis thrown
in for good measure. "shOt up"
than to have another 1898 1897

form Of poisoning which is so wide
spread and no rapidly increasing at
the present time, as the series of tox-
ic phenomena exhibited in the persons
of those addicted to the excessive use
OF the various preparations of alco-
hol, opium, morphine, choral, chloro-
form, ether, cocaine, and allied insbri-
ating substances.
There In no other kind OF poisoning
which so deSrades brain structure
and disturbs mental function, while
physically deseneratins bodily texture
and undermining vital organs, or
which is so far-reaching in its opera
ton, transmitting az it does through
two generations a great variety of
brain abaormalitics, mental defects
and moral obliquities originally in
duced in the ancestral stock by the
toxicating action of the poison on
brain and nerve tissue.
The more generally employed
among such articles, narcotics and an
aesthetics, by their characteristic In
fuence, have the property Of setting
up and thus practically originating a
desire for fresh dose drink, and at
the same time of so disturbing brain
function rs to induce moral perver-

reform and the like. the first-named,
alcohol being q prolific inciter to
| breaches of human and divine law,
ranging from minor offenses to the
| gravest misdemeanors and crimes"
Till about q century ago. there was
! a general belief that drunkenness was
a purely voluntary condition; that
men and women could get drunk or
| refrain from getting drunk as they
chose, and that intoxication was a
| pastime willingly and willfully INDUCED

| few who still cherish this opinion

drunkenness as a mere immortality

science has, therefore, set itself to In

properties of intoxication on body and
brain, and the various morbid condi
tons which operate to render a sub
stantial proportion of human beings ar

Wsstsrners Coming South.

A. D. Campbell has just returned
from business trip through Illinois,
where he has been trying to interest
men of means in Mississippi lands, and
finds that many of them are already
holders of goodly tracts down this way,
and that others are only awaiting an
opportunity to buy. Mr.. Campbell
says the people of the middle rest are
just beginning to realise and to apPre-
ciate the wonderful natural resources
of the South, and to consider farming
lands in this section worth the little
money it takes to buy them. The Hi
nois Central railroad has been ham,
mering the truth into the teeming mil
lions along its lines in the middle and
northwest for years, and has finally
started the tide in this direction.
Thousands of sturdy western farmers
are settling here every year, and it is
predicted that from now on they will
como in even greater numbers.

merit of which one depends for saliva
ton apart from Jesus Christ. 1t is
dead because it is separated from the
sources of all spiritual life. The man
who depends upon his character as
the ground of justification before God,
while he declares that he has no Mssa
of an atoning Saviour Is relying Upon
dead work. The man who depends
upon salvation through baptism or any
other external ordinance is trusting to
dead work. Dead works are like
wax fruits manufactured and hung
upon a tree. They look like fruit, but
they are not, because they lack the
life of the tree.
Faith Toward God.
A Foundational Attitude OF soul
is in the words faith toward
God" The opposite of faith toward
works. There can be no growth with
out this soul attitude toward God. A
well try to make a plant grow that
never turns its leaves toward the sun.
AS we'll seek the development of ami
NAL life without the light. 1t is more
than faith toward truth One may be-
lieve that the Bible is the word OF
God without trusting God for saliva
ton. One may even believe in the
deity of Christ without accepting
Christ as the Saviour. One may be-
lieve in salvation by grace without ap-
propriating grace for his ewn saliva
ton. Faith toward 6ed in Christ
means salvation. Faith toward God
the Holy Spirit means power. Faith
toward God the Father means sonship
and worship.
Doctrine of Baptisms.
A Foundational Disposition is in
the words "the doctrine of hap
tisms" There may be reference to
the ceremonial washings of the Jews
or to Christian baptism, perhaps to
both. But the underlying meaning is
the same in both cases. The Jews
practiced these ceremonial washings
because they believed that God had
commanded them. The Christians
baptized because Christ commanded
it. The disposition of the soul In both
cases was the same, though the dis.
position Of the Christian marked a
higher type OF spirituality than the
disposition of the Jew. In both cases.
however, that disposition could be de-
fined as the spirit of obedience. 1t
was a desire to please the one they
worshiped and loved
Resurrection of the Dead.
Eoff Sc IN hn
words resurrection of the dead"
Both words in the Greek are without
the article and might be translated
RESURRECTION Of dead things. whether
souls, bodies or institutions, 1t is
fundamental that q Christian believe
in resurrection, which means the
power of God to give life to the dead
OF course, he believes In the resur-
rection of Jesus Christ, and he does
not explain it away by silly talk about
suspended animation. His Lord was
crusified, dead and buried, and rose
from the dead on the third day ac-
cording to the Scriptures. The very
body that was laid away in weakness
came forth in power The very body
that was entombed a natural body
came out spiritual body, not q spir-
itual spirit, but real body. although
no longer subject to natural law, be-
Ing ever hereafter permeated and
dominated by the Spirit. OF course,
the Christian believes in the resur-
rection of his own body. "All that are
in the graves shall hear the voice of
the Son of God and shall come forth.

ENGL AND'S OLDEST ADMIRAL

Richard Norman, Englands oldest admiral
has just celebrated his ninety-eighth birthday
anniversary Probably no other naval officer in
the world can boast a longer record, as he en-
tered the British navy at Is. His memory Of
service afoat goes back to the year 1928 and
he has some wondrous yarns to spin of life and
adventure many seas.
One Of the most singular experiences which
he takes pleasure in relating is rubbing noses

The Silver Service Fund.

Gov. Noel made the following state
ment relative to the work that is in
progress for the raising of the battle
ship silver service fund:
"There was $1,000 which had been
collected up to the tirGs of the selection
Of Mrs. Eunlcs Lockwood, and since
then, through Mrs. lockwood and 9th
srS assisting her, $1,000 more has been
subscribed and 81, 1884, 30 paid in to her.
Mrs. Lockwood has done splendid work,
% have also others who have been asso-
ciated with her in different sections.
II the same aid is given to her from
now until January, considering the
better conditions, it is probabls that
e, 500 or more will be raised by that
time, which will be enough to pay for
q very creditable silver service for the
battleship. It is call upon patriotism,
which all public-spirited citizens should
honor, and the service of Mrs. Lock
wood is entirely disinterested and pa
triOtic."

MORAL VALUE OF THE SWORD
Weapon Purely Ornamental, But Can
not Be Discarded.

Onicers of the German army are TO
be ordered to resume their swords.
discarded after the Boer war. The
fact Is OF interest as showing o recog-
milton by the army authorities OF the
moral value Of a weapon now become
purely ornamental. With the enemy 8
firing line miles away, the sword has
come to be regarded as military toy
merely. One of the minor lessons or
the Japanese war was the demonstra-
ton ef it's usefulness as . distinguish
