We are living in day when the
very word doctrine seems'to be often
slve to the majority Of Christians.
Each denomination realizes that It's
doctrines are imperfect undcfendahle.
Hence by mutual consent Christians
seem disposed 20 ignore doctrines. for
they believe that II after nineteen cen-
turies they are thus confused, the
matter never will be clear TO anybody
All this is a mistake. the doctrines
of Christ as presented by the great
Teacher and His Apostles. We're a
great Message, of which none of them
were ashamed The difficulty is that
we gradually fell away from those
doctrines into the spirit of bondage
TO human traditions and creeds. We
need the doctrines OF Christ and the
Apostles TO break down our creed
fences. which have separated Gods
people into various denominations
folds. contrary to His arrangement
for God has but one fold for all Iii.

MAKES IMPROVEMENT
IN WIRELESS SENDING

Paris, July 15.-Baron Zepel, now
experimenting with wireless teleg-
raphy aboard the yacht, "Hiron-
delle," belonging to the Prince of
Monaco, is said to have discovered
new principles which will revolution
ize the system.
According to stories coming from
Toulon, Zepel's apparatus sends and
receives in almost absolute silence
whereas the ordinary variety pro-
duces a noise like rifle shots. Also,
though his outfit Is compact and
very small, 1t has a sending force
equal to that aboard Frances big
gest battleships. By means OF a
keyboard the notes Of a bugle can
be transmitted when other forms OF
wireless are rendered useless by
weather conditions, and these, ar
ranged In code form, would be ut
terly incomprehensible to outsiders.

ROBBERS FAIL
IN OLD BRIDGE
Attempt to Rob General Store
of W. M. AppIeby Sons.
tpscidJ to the EVENING NE WE,

special TO the EVENING NEWB,
Old Bridge, July 15:-Thieves at
tempted to break into the general
store of William M. Appleby Sons, of
this place, on Friday night, it is now
reported. The alleged attempt at
robbery was kept quiet for a number
of hours but is now generally known.
The burglars, it is believed that
more than M constituted the party,
can WELD a crowbar with great
skill judging from the marks left on
the front and real doors of the store
building.
When Albert Appleby, the senior
partner, wen to the store early Sat
urday morning he found the front
door marked as if "jimmied." He
opened it hastily and made a quick
examination of the interior, expect
ing to find the shelves looted, but
the stores appearance was the same
as at closing time Friday night.
When Mr.. Appleby reached the rear
door he again found marks of an
attempt to force an entrance. The
marks show that a heavy crowbar
had been wedged under the door and
thus a strong pry effected. 1t is be-
lieved that the burglars were foiled
in their efforts by the heavy wooden
bars which are dropped into place
behind the front and real doors
every night by the last clerk leaving
the building.
Mr.. Appleby is under the impress
sion that the robbers went to the
small door in the butcher shop after
finding their efforts were unsuccess-
full at the larger doors, and attempt
ed to force the Yale lock. 1t is be-
lieved they were partly successful,
but frightened away by the electric
bell attachment on this door. This
alarm Is so powerful that it can be
heard by Mr.. Appleby in his resi-
dence across the street. The butcher
shop and main store are connected
by an unlocked door. There is a
speculation that the alleged robbers
were really ~"hrebugs" following in
the wake of the recent series of
crime which has stirred Old Bridge
into a turmoil. Mr.. Appleby laughs
at the idea, and furnishes the opinion
that the thieves were probably after
clothing, meats, etc.
