WONAN'S TEMPENCE
 CHRISTIAN UNION

What has become of the sub mission question? How many petitions were sent in from Pres colt? We ask for information inasmuch as we have heard nothing about them although we have kept our ear to the ground with anxious listening for some reverberatiOns of their sound as they have been carried from point to point in the county. Was all that time, speeches and money for naught?
 AS for ourselves, we were never in favor of accepting a verdict of even the people if they decided a moral question adverse to everything that was right. Suppose we had or do submit the question of prohibition to the people, and by chicanery of the liquor men we lose, would that settle the question? Nay, verify. Nothing short of absolute prohi- tion will ever satisfy the real temperance worker. Nothing short of absolute prohibition will ever satisfy the mothers of sons and daughters for whom she has freely offered herself a living sacrifice in order they may scale the heights of usefulness and helpfulness. Not once will she ever give her consent to see the demon of drink flash from his bright eyes, telling that reason had flown, and that wine and wildness sat on the the throne.
 As long as this state of affairs last, the Springtime will not bring to her any shadows, nor the roses bloom in Summer bowers.
 To her it must be streets built by a united effort of father n d mother-love. Anything short of this cannot, yea, will not satisfy a mother-heart.
 If anything on our streets is questionable propriety, we beg the city fathers to exterminate it root and branch for ye know not how soon the innocent feet of your own children will be caught in it's meshes.

CITY IS
DARKENED
BY STORM
lnky BlaCkneSS, Thunder, Rain
and Hail Are Sunday
Morning Visitors
TIMID FOLK ARE
ALARMED FOR TIME

A storm, which varied in intensity in
different parts Of the city. but which
everywhere inspired awe f.om it's
ominous appearance passed over the
city yesterday morning. It was accom-
panied by thund~r, rain. hail and
snow.
The rainfall IN the northern part Of
the city was torrential, while it was
comparatively light in the centre Of
the city.
For two and half hours, or from
$50 until 9 o'clock, there was a series
of spectacular phenomena in connec-
ton with the Storm which frightened
the timid or superstitious, and caused
others to watch the developments with
interest IN some respects IL was the
most remarkable storm Of It's kind to
visit Wilmington in years.
Just as day was breaking the COM
ing of the storm was heralded by SAL
vos Of thunder. II was like an over
ture to a Wagner opera. and indicated
that It was only a prelude to tremen-
dous meteorological display.
While the bombardment continued az
intervals, gentle showers fell from
time to time. These came like the ad-
vance guard IN the preliminary rushes
of infantry. still the thunder rolled.
and occasionally emitted sounds OF a
giant splitting trees OF forest Many
persons thought an earthquake had
shook the city Then II rained gently
for a short time, but at 8 o'clock a
heavy downpour began. the first eyi-
dence Of the strength OF the conNng
storm hosts.
Darkness Covers City.
While the downpour continued the
skies began to darken. At first slowly.
and then with speed that was terribly
ing. for there was every appearance Of
an onrushing tornado in the dark,
yellowish heavens. A few minutes
after . there fell from the dark clouds,
which hung so low that they almost
touched the house tops, the first
shower of hail.
In some parts Of the city the hail
was of sufficient quantity and volume

lasted only for few minutes. All the
while the darkness increased in inten-
sity, until at 9 o'clock IL was so dark
that one could scarcely recognize a
face on the streets. The cars had their
headlights lighted. churches and
houses had to light up and a dreadful
pall-like stiffness fell over the city.
Accompanying this condition the rain

Physicians and Surgeons Hospital
was formally opened by the Rev. DR.,
William Temple, pastor Of 81. Eliza
beth R. @. Church Dr. James H. Nor
gan presided and reviewed the or
ganizaton Of the hospital by 20 per
cen. OF the allopathio physicians of
the city.
DR.. Morgan said the purpose OF the

equip such q department. For this
reason 10000 envelopes were sent out
Saturday and contributions Of one
cent or more are requested. These
can be sent to the treasurer, n. c.

or to any physician on the hospital
star.
On the stage during the meeting
we're DR.. Joseph p, Pyle, DR.. Jose
phine NJ. R. White de Lacour and
others. DR.. Temples subject was,
THE Beauties OF Charity"
He quoted Lecky to show the mo-
tiyes that actuated the first founders
Of hospitals in Europe, and establish
ed the fact that prior to Christianity
hospitals as institutions were IN
known.
The first hospital, according 10 this
authority, was founded in the fourth
century, and throughout the middle
ages the monks kept up resorts for
inyalids, particularly those afflicted
with leprosy. The speaker further
showed that the ideals OF many OF the
early hospital workers we're drawn
from divine sources.
DR.. Temple reminded his hearers
thai the word hospital was derived
from the Latin word meaning a guest
and that the guest chamber Of the
early bishops was used as a rest and
sick room for the pilgrim Hospitals
in France, he pointed out, are known
as Gods Hotel" and that the phrase
was not an idle one Continuing, the
speaker said the first hospital in the
western hemisphere was established
by Cortez in Mexico. 1924 the first
in Canada, 1899, and the first within
the borders Of the United States al
New York in 1868 for the reception OF
wounded soldiers and the treatment
of West Indian negroes.
DR.. Temple expressed his thanks
for the manner in which the loca'
hospitals had cared for Catholic
patients and pleaded that funds be
supplied all the hospitals so that viii
more means and more equipment
they might open their doors mor'
widely to the poor He employed a.
fitting conclusion 10 his address ;

sake, for the sakes Of their neighbour
and for love of God. Not until yol
