.S|PLEY bLAMES
HIS SECRETARY
In the Shadow of Death He
Tells About the Campaign
Money Expenditures

| Franklin, Pa, Sept. 5.-Joseph G.
Sibley, who recently retired as Re-
publican candidate for congress in
the Twenty-eighth district, and was
on the same day arrested for conspir-
ing to bribe and debauch voters in
Warren county, today issued what, as
he sadly intimates. may prove to be a
dying statement in reference to his
$42.500 election expenditure and the
conspiracy charge. He places-the re-
sponsibility of the large expenditure
of money on his private secretary,
Frank H. Taylor, who is a co-defend-
ant in the conspiracy prosecution.
MIR. Sibley says in his statement
that when he was taken sick at the
beginning of the campaign for con-
gress he turned matters over to Tay-
lor Il told him." he proceeds, that
did not want an expensive campaign
but whatever reasonable amount OF
money he needed would be furnished"
Owing to illness he did not see
Taylor more than six or eight times,
but on one of these occasions he said
to Taylor:
spending Too Much"
Il am afraid, Mr.. Taylor, that you
are making this campaign too expen-
sive. Tow much have you spent?"
Taylor replied that he did not know,
but whatever the amount, Nelson P.
Wheeler, his opponent, was spending
two or three dollars to Sibley's one
Wheeler. it turned out later, spent
only $17,5O0.
At the meeting referred to, Sibley
says, he told Taylor to consult good
lawyer relative to what expenses were
lawful under the Roberts law, and to
spend no money for anything not au-
thorized by law. At that time, he says,
he dictated letter cautioning his
lieutenant to conform strictly to the
letter and spirit of the new law.
Fro mthe day the campaign opened
until fifteen days after the campaign
closed knew of but two payments
of money made out from my account"
the statement proceeds, "and until the
day of filing my account had no in
timation. knowledge or belief that the
total expenses of my campaign had
exceeded 100000"
Has Spoken Truth.
Sibley declares that he never used
a dollar dishonesty, nor gave nor
permitted to be given a drink Of liq-
uor to secure his election, and that
each time he has been elected he has
said that he would not take the oath
of Office If any such thing could be
proved against him.

Millions for Missions


VIII the boards do with all this money ?"
Ihere are no conditions attached to the
gifts. The money may be put into adj
vance work, used to meet present urgent
needs, or else laid away as an endow-
ment. The consensus OF opinion thus far
gathered seems to be against the latter
plan. One leading Presbyterian eue-
gested that probably some Of the foreign
boards educational institutions abroad
Will be endowed and elsewhere the mea-
ger equipment of the work brought up
to par. The home board will doubtless
put great deal Of money into Porto
Rico and Alaska.
The possible effect upon other givers
and upon the regular income of the
boards is being given special attention.
Instead Of giving the rank and file of
church members an excuse for lessening
their gifts. 1t is thought that the Ken
nedy gifts will provoke widespread emu
lation and give the churches zest to push
still further the advances which this
Windfall makes possible. In addition. the
attention Of other possible givers is chal-
lenged. and there are those who look
for revival of the fashion of writing
wills in favor OF religious objects.

When People Marveled
80 f-S-s

cape worry once wrote: at Is a pitiable
thing to see vigorous men and women
who have inherited godlike qualities and
bear the impress of divinity, wearing anx-
ious faces and filled with all sorts of fear
and uncertainty, worrying about yester
day, today, tomorrow-everything imagin-
able. In entering New York by train every
morning [ notice business men with hard,
tense expressions their faces, leaning
forward when the train approaches the
station, as if they could hasten it's prog
ress and save time, many OF them getting
I'D from their seats and rushing toward
the door several minutes before the train
stops. Anxiety is in every movement a
hurried nervousness in their manner, and
their hard. drawn conference.-the these
are indica tons of an abnormal life
And yet Christ is just ready to calm
the troubled mind as He was SO long ago
to quiet the waves of the sea. The result
of His work is just as marvellous now as
1t was then, as millions are daily proving;
their cares vanish into thin air as they
lean on Him who voices still the invita-
ton, Come unto me, all We that labor and
are heavy laden, and 1 will give you
rest"

His disciples came 20 land. Soon two men

PRAYER.

Father my heart has never found
Its perfect goal below;
IL beats In vain upon the ground
Against the cold and snow;
1t has no chance 10 reach Its home
Save in a Kingdom yet TO come.
All other things beneath the sky
Receive their kingdom here;
There is a splendor for the eye,
\ music for the ear.
But my hearts cry for perfect love
Waits 10 be heard in heaven above.
Why should my heart alone be void
IL earth to man be all!
Why should Thy bounty be alleged
BY one unanswered call?
Wings help the birds desire for flight;
Why should my soul be left in night?
Thy wings are coming. o my heart!
Thy want OF them on earth
Itself Is promise that thou art
Prepared for higher birth.
The need this world has so denied
Is bound above to be supplied.
Thou hast not found III, sphere in life
Only thy hemisphere;
One-half thy globe is mist and strife;
The other must be clear.
Thou shalt be rounded in the day
When God shall wipe thy tears away.
within thy breast thou canst not plant
a flower OF fadeless breath,
For some are chilled by frost and want.
And all must yield TO death;
Thou watesr for a higher hour
To lend thee room 10 WELD thy power.
Sure as the eye demands its beam,
Sure as the ear ITS voice,
So surely thy path shall CLEAN
The freedom OF thy choice:
And thou 10 whom earth was not given
Shall meet thy counterpart in heaven.

Effect Upon the Laymen.

All over the country the churches are
feeling the effect OF the laymen's mis-
sionary movement campaign which II
now under way. Remarkably successful
meetings have been held In Buffalo, Prov
idence. Worcester. Richmond, Bristol,
Tenn, Cleveland. Washington. Balti-
more. A convention is now in session in
Philadelphia. A psychological condition
had been created for the reception OF the
news of the Kennedy bequest. Something
OF the sort had been looked for by the
men who have watched the effect upon
wealthy laymen Of these laymen's meet
ings. It may be that the Kennedy mil
lions are only the first fruits OF a great
harvest. The field OF non-reHgious phi
lanthropy has been well covered; the re-
turn to the old fashion Of supporting re-
ligious work is not unnatural in the prem
ises.
All the recent hammering into mems
minds OF the stupendous claims Of the
orient was bound to have its effect.
Many had thought that the first startling
gift. to shake Christendom into q fresh
realization Of the possibilities OF religious
philanthropy would be tho fifty millions
for Christian education in China which II
is persistently reported Rockefeller In
tends to give. With so many million
aires scattered about the country, and
not a few OF them In the churches, IL Is
difficult to predict where the next big
donation will come from.

Victims of Demons.

When the men saw Christ they cried
out using words wh-h indicate that the
demons recognized the Lord as the Son OF
God and in fear and terror besought Him
TO leave them undisturbed. When, how
ever, they saw that there was no hope of
this they begged to be allowed to take
possession of a herd of swine feeding
near by. Christ. feeling probably that
the men would not really believe in their
deiiverance till they saw the transference
of the effects of the demons presence,
was willing to grant the desired permits
sion. 1t has been complained that by so
doing he dsregarded the property rights
of others, but the keepers of swine could
have no property rights worthy or His
regard in beasts forbidden by the law.
The word was given. The men were
freed from their torment. The swine, into
which the demons at once entered. fren-
zied, rushed down the steep into the sea
and persisted"
When the people of the nearby city, at
tracted by the report of the keepers OF
the swine rushed out to investigate. they
were not filled with adoring wonder at
the sight of the men who mad been re-
stored to reason; they were too busy
thinking of the attack on what was EVIL
IDENTITY a popular method of money max
ing in their community. So they begged
Christ to leave their country.
How men of this twentieth century are
like those swineherds! One of the chief
objections made to the religion Of JESUS
Christ is that 1t interferes with business.
The man who makes this objection does
not realize that he is condemning him
self. If the business is one which Is hurt
by the presence of the Son of God there is
no safety for him till he either gets out
of it altogether or SO transforms 1t that 1t
becomes possible to ask upon it the bless
ing of Jesus.

Southern Men Giving Largely.

The audacious slogan, ''The Evangelical
ton Of the world In this generation" has
been raised by the laymen's movement.
This seems chimerical. In the light of the
present scale Of giving. Humanity speak
ing. only number Of gifts on the Ken
nedy scale and a wholesale increase Of
the average offerings OF the church MEM
bers at large can make possible the
equipment necessary to carry the gospel
to the thousand million n-Christians
within the next thirty-three years. Some
enthusiastic laymen see in this big be-
quest the beginning Of the necessary
financial reinforcement.
The rich men of the south have, as q
whole. been the first to respond to the ap-
peal OF the laity for largely increased
gifts to foreign missions. There are sew
eraI wealthy cotton and tobacco men who
now give over ten thousand dollars apiece
every year for this object. The idea OF
supporting an entire mission station. or
even working whole province. has grip
ped the imagination Of these men OF the
south. and some OF them are doing just
this. Practically all the missionaries OF
one denomination, the Southern Presby-
terian, are maintained each by an ind-
vidual or by "A single congregation. The
First Presbyterian Church OF Wilmington.
N, c., supports entirely all the varied
mission work done in an entire district In
China.

The Shilling of the Tempest.

One of the instances where those who
were with Christ marveled was when
He was with His disciples in boat on
the Sea of Galilee. Wearied by the de-
mands of the day, when He had been
ministering to the people and healing
their diseases He fell asleep in the
boat. Suddenly one of the fierce storms
so common in Galilee-surrounded as it
s by high hi!ls-swept down upon the
frail boat so that it was about to sink.
Terrified, the disciples went all to the
sleeper: Save. Lord; we perish
Christ's res. onse was immediate. Paus-
ing only to chide the disciples for their
little faith He rebuked the winds and
sea. Instantly there was great calm.
The Lord had spoken. Nature obeyed
HIM, and the men marveled, asking one
another in wonder: What manner of
man is this that even the winds and the
sea obey Him.
There is magic in the soothing voice of
Christ. If men would only listen for it,
now their worries would be dissipated
aud their anxieties would be solved.
There would be great calm in their
ives, as there was upon the Sea of
Galilee. Men will not listen for Christ's
voice, the world is full of men and wom-
IN who are always worrying.
