BROTHER is DEAD;
OTHERS STRICKEN
Misfortune Follows Male Members
of ShreVe Family Of This
City and Virginia.

An unusual streak OF misfortune is fol-
lowing the male members OF the Shreve
family, Of this city and Dayton, four
miles from Harrisonburg. Va.
Within thirty-six hours, one brother
died from pneumonia, one had q stroke
Of paralysis which involved his entire
left side and tongue, and Is in a condi-
tion so serious that his life is despaired
of, and a third was taken with q severe
attack Of acute Indigestion and was in
a serious condition.
Ernest James Shreve, Of rs Seventh
street northwest. a resident Of this city
for twenty-five years, died OF pneumonia
last Monday morning at 10 O'Clock. Later
in the day George Shreve, Of Dayton.
was stricken with acute indigestion at
Washington hotel, and was carried
to the residence Of his mother, Mrs w.
]. Shreve, in a serious condition. HIS
condition has greatly Improved. and he
is now out Of danger.
Shortly after the death OF Ernest
Shreve. the family here received a teie-
gram from Dayton. stating that Robert

to observe the seventh day of the week
In fulfillment of their law enjoining the
first day Of the week as they offer to
AN all-wise God the observance of the
first day Of the, week in fulhllment Of
the divine law that enjoins the seventh
day OF the week? II not. why not?
Upon what ground can they refuse such
action on the part of the people here?
What ground, indeed. other than the
Implication that they and their human
law are superior to "an all-vise Cod
and His divine la7'?
wouldn't II be intsresting TO know just
what ''an all-wise God and infinitely
/ just Judge really does think OF all this
ecclesiastical. legislative. and judicial,
fantastic iddling with His law?
Finally. when the Congress and the
courts OF the UEited States shall en-
force upon the people any law requiring
the observance or recognition OF Sunday
as the Sabbath OF the Fourth Command
ment, then that will be, not the Fourth
Commandment as God gave It, but only
that commandment as the Church Of
Rome has changed II. And that will be
the enforcement, not of the will of God.
but OF the will Of the Church OF Rome.
Sabbath observance. according to the
Fourth Commandment, as God gave 1t,
means worship-the worship Of God.
Sabbath" observance OF the Fourth
Commandment" as Rome has changed
II, just as certainly means worship-the
worship OF Rome; and the worship Of
Rome as God in the place Of God.
And when Congress and the courts Of
the United States, or of any State, en-
force the observance or recognition OF
the Fourth Commandment" as Rome
has changed 4. that Is nothing else than
the enforcement Of the worship of Rome
as God IN the place Of God.
In view of these perfectly plain and
enormous consequence
Are the people OF the District OF Co
lumbia, are the people of the United
States, or OF any State, willing to have
Congress or the legislature Of any State
make any Sunday law?
Are the people of any State willing to
have enforced any Sunday law already
made?

SUNDAY LEGISLATION AND
THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT
Audience Discusses Senate Report on
Observance of Sunday

less honored than the Jewish Sabbath"
Such was the view and the practice in
the church before there ever was any
Sunday law. And all the records OF that
time demonstrate that the setting up OF
Sunday as a festival day was wholly OF
the church, and all the directions for the
celebration Of II were wholly from the
same source. 1t was a church institu-
ton absolutely.
Origin of Sunday Laws.
That period also marks the exaltation
of the bishops into an episcopal domi-
mating hierarchy, "only anxious" says
Eusebius, Ito assert the government as
a kind Of sovereignty for themselves" I"
1t is not necessary to inquire on this
whether It was ''the government Of the
church or the government OF the state
that they were anxious TO assert, for II
was both. For, says Neander, There
had, in fact, ariser in the church false

Cornelius Milling

Cornelius, son of John d. and
Mrs. N. M. Milling. was born,
March 20, 1892, in Neshoba coun-
ty, Miss. died July Is, 1912. age
20 years, 3 months, 25 days-He
was working for Hays and Nc
Kay at their sawmill. While he
and Mr.. Lawrence Evans were
unstacking a small stack of lum.
Der Monday morning, about half
of another stack of lumber four
teen feet high, fell on Cornelius.
He noticed it was falling, but it
was too near for him to get out
of the way-After it struck him
The Neshoba Democrat., 1912-07-25

he never spoke. His life was
crushed out of HIM at once.
Cornelius professed faith in
Christ during the Union evange
listic services conducted by Kew.
w, B. t dimes and Prof B. F.
Butts in Philadelphia, Miss. Oc-
tober, 19O7-l'he 18th of Oct.
1907, Cornelius united with the
Presbyterian church of which he
remained a worthy and consis-
tent member until his handsome
body, the tent, house in which he
sojourned on the earth, was
crushed beneath the weight of
the lumber which fell upon him,
and his happy and redeemed
Spirit ascended to heaven and
into the eternal glory with
Christ-His father believed
that, if Cornelius had lived, he
would have been minister of
the gospel-He was cheerful
and devoted christian-During
the past year he manifested much
interest in reading the Bible-It
was his intention to enter school
next fall either at Lebanon, or
Maryville, Tenn. On Sunday
July IA, Cornelius remarked to
his mother that somehow he did
not feel like he was going to en-
ter school next Fall--He did not
know he was to enter heaven Sc
soon-"Blessed are they that wash
their robes, that they may have
right to the tree of lie, and may
enter in through the gates into
the CITY,"
Is the crushing out of the life
of this worthy and promising
young man to be attributed to
God? The growing of the tim
ber in the virgin forest is attrib-
utable to God; but the telling,
hauling and saving of the tim
ber is not attributable to God,
but to man. Neither is any Grim
inal negligence in the stacking
of the lumber to be attributed to
God, but to man-Did God pur-
NIT the crushing out of the life
of Cornelius in the sense of sane
tioning it.? He did not-There is
only one sense in which God per-
mitted his umtimely death. and
that is a negative sense-God
permitted his death in the sense
that God, by His power did not
absolutely prevent, or hold up,
the stack of lumber from falling
on him. His death was due
neither to fatalism nor chance.

SHARK OIL Good,
MINUS THE SMELL
AND CAPTAIN WALKER HAS WAR
TO SUBTRACT TT-BxPEcrs
A LIVELY TRADE.

Captain F. d. Walker, hero OF thO
famous Wandering Minstrel wreck on
Midway Island, claims to bo the dis
coverer of n process of deodoriziuR
shark liver oil, which he says nakss
the oil a highly valuable medicinal
product. Walker, who is over seventy
years of age, spent a large part If last
year at Kawaihae, in the shark sssi.
ness. His health failed and for time
he was in very serious condition. He
says that shark oil brought him back
to his present lively state, and that
when people get to know the medicinal
and nutritive value of the oil, shoro is
going to be very lively demand for
sharks. "My attention was directed
to the sharks some years ago when
was in British Columbia,' said the
captain. ST was there to look over the
dogfsh business, with the intention of
starting guano company to furnish
fish fertilizer to the sugar plantations
on these islands. A physician drew my
attention to the great medicinal value
of the oil. He informed me that in
ever thirty years of observation he had
been amazed at its nutritive and cura-
tive properties.
Gas he had travelled all over the
Northwest, being attached to some
mission society, also the Hudson Bay
Company, he had had ample opportun-
tiles to get valuable information. His
regard for the oil of the liver of Tho
dogish was very great.
Though the oil was prepared
roughly with the stencil not removed,
the Siwash Indians, in cases of sickness,
drank it freely, with the most crafty
ing results.
"The doctor said that If tho oil could
be deodorized, we would have the most
valuable article in the pharmacopoeia
of the world
"The flesh of the dogish contains
too much oil of worthless character
to make fertilizer for sugar. The
shark is as fertilizer more valuable,
there being very little oil in the flesh.
"The oil of the shark liver is superior
to that of the dogfsh, and as / have
discovered the method of deodorizing
the oil, I think have fulfilled the doc
tors wish.
"The Hawaiian shark is tho best
species known, being of large size, we'll
fed, fact well proved by the size OF
its liver"

CHINESE NEARLY
DESERT THE KOREA
STEWARD HAD MoRPHINE-HE
AND TWO CHINESE ARE
FOUND GUILTY.

MANILA, March 2O.-Tragedy stalk
ed aboard the Pacific Mail steamer
Korea this morning and then stalked of
again. This afternoon when the Korea
pokes her nose in the direction OF
Hongkong the pulsing engines will hum
a song of peril passed, to the grateful
ears of Captain Fisher, who is positive
now that his ships family of one hum
bred will not desert the ship at Hong
kong.
One hundred strong, all Chinese, is
this particular family. And the motif
of Why They Almost Left Their Happy
Home, which is the title of the bob
tailed tragedy, abides in a lone kilO
of morphine, which brought about the
arrest of three of the Korea 3 crew and
incidentally brought 5000 into the gee
eminent strong box
| A customs inspector noticed bulpe
in the mizzen pocket of Second Stew.
ard George Mitchell, when that officer
walked down the gangplank of the
Korea Sunday. The inspectors hand
followed his kilo eye and Mitchell'a
pocket yielded morphine. Mitchell was
arrested on q charge of illegal posses
sion Of morphine.
| A quick investigation of the case dis.
closed the fact that Mitchell had been
asked by two Chinese of the Korea %
crew to bring the drug ashore. Mok
Took San is one of the Chinese and is
also No. China boy aboard the Korea,
which means that he is in charge Of
all the Chinese. The other Chinese is
Ching 70, whose rank is China boy
No. 2.
Mok and Ching were arrested on a
charge of illegal Importation of NOR
phine. Mok and Ching pleaded not
guilty-Mitehell pleaded guilty. This
morning, counsel for the Chinese fled
demurrer, on the ground that the COM
plant drawn up in the Office of the
prosecuting attorney was irregular.
For time it looked as though the
trial of the cases would be postponed
until Saturday.
Captain Fisher asked that the cases
be brought to trial this morning, as his
boat sails this afternoon, and as his
entire Chinese crew would leave the
ship at Hongkong If Mok and Ching
were lief, Manila. Counsel for the
Chinese freed to withdraw the demur-
rer and Mok and Ching pleaded. Mok
was fined $3.50, Ching 5000 and Mitchell
$3.50.
The fines were paid and there is sun.
