The Bible in Education.

Why is a thing right or wrong? Shall school
teacher answer 1t by pointing his pupil to eXpe-
diency or policy, to the will of God? But II
the will of God Is the final appeal-as in the
ture OF the case it must below is that to be
known? The whole Protestant world answers
by the Bible" If there is any other way that so
satisfies the universal heart it never has been
reported. The morality of the Bible is the tran
script of the mind of Father in Heaven 1t
commends itself to the reason Nothing higher
can be conceived of. and If this morality is not
taught what shall be taught? But If it is taught
how can consistently exclude the source from
which it comes? Shall have the ethics of
the Bible in our schools while the book itself is
denied admission? The absurdity of that posi-
ton needs no elaboration. Secularsm may enter
our public schools and teach it's views, its
seed, poison minds of the children with Its atheis-
teal doctrines. turn their eyes downward and not
upward, say the very foundations Of histori
cal faith, and it is called broad. liberal, catholic.
but II Christianity should presume to it's

~ | should like to ask some of the members of our
school boards and our long headed superintend-
ents and principals IL it is not quite az sectarian
to teach the Bible of seeularism In our public
schools as il Is to teach the Bible of Christianity
AS things stand at present, secuarism, backed
up very inconsistency, think, by the Catholic
and the jew is having its way here in Chicago
The no-God. no Bible, no-Christ element of
cfety is allowed to shape the whole policy of edu-
cation. Let us not be discovered the sectaranism
of the secularist is quite pronounced. as busy
! as the sectarianism of the Christian, and far
more dangerous to society and civil institutions.
You are not keeping sectarianism out of the pub
lie schools when you exclude the Bible and elimi-
nate the name of Christ: you making room
Tor far narrower far more subtle, far more per-
ilous sort. Sectaranism belongs to all men Of
every name and school and class. When a man
tells you he Is so broad so universal that he has
no preference. no prediction no morality that
to him this is as good as that, belief is good
as another, he is is knave and not worthy of
moments consideration. Men who think and
feel and achieve are men who run in well defined
channels. Sectarianism is wide as human life
and the question Is which kind shall we have In
our public schools. For our part. have a
very decided preference for the kind that flies
the Christian banner and stands with beth haaas

WHITEHALL KNOWN
IN NEW HAVEN
CHIEF OF POLICE WERNER RE-
CEIvEs LETTER TELLING OF
HIS STAY THERE.

While the identity fEno Whyte-
hall is just as much mystery as
ever Chief of Police Werner expects
that IN due time 1t will be revealed.
Tuesday the chief received letter
that tended to strengthen the idea
that WHITEHALL was an eccentric wan
derer and not a crook. In the accept
ed sense of that term. Mrs. G. M.
Benjamin, OF 341 Crown street, New
Haven, Conn, wrote Chief Werner a
long letter in which she told OF
Whytehalfs stay in her household.
The letter was dated January 22 and
the writer said that WhytehaH had
come to her house two weeks before
that and boarded with her. He had
bad cough and she advised him to
go South where the climate was
milder.
AT that time WHITEHALL was wear
! ing an old-fashioned diamond pin. she
said. and pair of diamond cuff but

of jewelry when he died here. 1t ia
quite likely that he disposed of either
or both in Richmond, for according
to Mrs Juhl, his Richmond landlady,
his cash capital at one time consisted
| of merely SO bill. Soon afterward,
she said, he appeared with a roll of
Dllis and as he had no bank account
In town she believes he must has g
parted with some valuables.
A letter from the Il. Howard Clock

watch found on Whytehalfs body. No.

house in 1880. The company informs
Chief Werner that it will endeavor to
find out when and TO whom it was
sold.
Superintendent John b. Taylor, of the
( Philadelphia police, has ntoihed Chief
Werner that he will endeavor to identi-
~ Whytehill In that city. WHITEHALL,
II Is believed, was arrested there one
time under the name of Ross Norwood.
The Philadelphiap olice stated at that
time that they thought Ross Norwood
was but an alias for Thomas Walton,
whose identity is equally uncertain.
Chief Werner communicated with the
chief of police in Jersey City Tuesday
He thinks Whytehall may possibly be

MYSTERY.

With the sentencing Of Mrs. Caroline Martin
to the New Jersey penitentiary for seven years
for manslaughter in connection with the death
of her daughter, Ocey Snead. in East Orange
another chapter has been added to one of the
strangest and most mysterious criminal cases
In recent years,
The final chapter is to be written after the
case against Mrs. Mary w. Snead, sister of the
convicted woman. is disposed of. A third sister
Miss Virginia Wardlaw, committed suicide in
prison by refusing to touch the. food brought her
by attendants and starving herself to death
The veil of mystery surrounding the death
of Ocey Snead has been but partially lifted. and
the presiding judge remarked, THE truth will
probably never be known" Pleading mon pult
to the indictment charging her with the murder
of the young woman, Mrs. Martin admitted that
ocey Snesd came to her death by criminal
methods. but when sentence was being pro-
nounced upon her the hysterical accused con-
tinualy interrupted the court with protestations
OF innocence, and charged the manhood of New
Jersey with heartless persecution against wo-
man.

defense has been able to learn the truth in the
matter. Vague and hazy stories are told of the
young woman's addiction TO morphine and her
having been placed In bathtub to recover from
an overdose of the drug That she committed
suicide was the stout protestation of the accused
Virginia women with whom she lived. That
she taken to an unfinished and isolated
house in the town of East Orange and there
drugged to death, that the trio of conspirators
might get the insurance on her life, was the con-
tention Of the prosecution. Among the many
points not cleared up Is the sudden disappear
ance of Ocey Snead's husband shortly before
her lifeless body was found in the abandoned
house. and his continued absence
The whole case has been mystery from first
TO last. How Ocey Snead came to her death is
one secret which woman has been able to keep
The strongest pressure was brought upon the
three accused women, but they protested limo
cence of criminality. Yet the body OF the dead
woman showed distinct evidence OF her having
been roughly handled ana bruised. Mother love
is shown to have turned to fendishness, and
given away to thirst for material wealth in this
instance A deep. dark and unfathomable con-
spiracy was formed and il still kept up, and

Cordwainers-History Of this Ancient Craft o,
Workers in Leather

OF the ancient and influential guilds of London
the cordwainers have history second to none
They were first Incorporated by Henry " in II4O
and In 1899 their charter made to include
all workers In leather within distance OF two
miles OF the city boundary. Later their control
was extended over London leather markers
Cordwaining means working in Cordovan
leather. These artisans had gathered themselves
into an association at an early period. They
were originally located on the fringe OF the old
city OF Londinium when the Roman power was
predominant in Britain. Here they remained for
many centuries. their industry forming one OF the
staple trades OF the country. The craft had lonr
been organized an important factor in mold
ing the municipal life OF English towns For
instance, the Gilda Corvesaor.im OF Oxford In the
twelfth Gentry was successful In obtaining from
Henry !. royal charter upon payment OF an
annual fine OF one ounce Of gold.
