GOSPEL FOR
COMMON PEOPLE.

Though nearing his 10th birthday
and the sixteenth anniversary of his
ministry. Rt. Rev. Alpheus Wa
tiers Wilson,. senior Bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South,
aud who occasionally breaches in Al
exandria, delivered strong and Wig
orous sermon at the morning service
yesterday morning at Trinity Meh-
odist Episcopal Church South, Bal
timore.
His subject was concerning the ''com
mon people" and the Gospel OF
Christ. He showed that Jesus lived
his life among the common people,
chose his disciples from the common
people and made the whole appeal OF
His Gospel, not to the rulers and
rich men, but to the common people.
Sometimes he dined with the phari-
sees when he saw opportunity to
teach them the way" the Bishop said.
"But it was the common people who
understood Him and heard Him glad
ly."
"And he sent his apostles out not to
dispute with learned men and to ar
que with higher critics concerning
the way of salvation. They spoke with
authority. The gospel they preached
they proclaimed would admit of no
dispute nor argument.
The venerable Bishop returned last
week from trip to New York, where
he had been on church business. He
was suffering slightly from an asth-
matte affection, as he has been for
wears but was otherwise in apparent
ly good health.
His birthday comes on February
5, as he was born in this city on Feb
ruary 5th, 1884. He was received on
trial into the then Methodist Episcopal
Church Baltimore in 1853, but went
with the Southern Methodist Church
when it was formed at the time of the
civil war. He was made bishop in
1882 and in 81 years service in that
capacity he has encircled the world
several times, has visited the greater
part of the countries of the world and
in the past year made trip alone to
Ill
active in his travels and only re-
Gently made an extended trip through
the South, where he is always heard
by large CONGREGATIONS.

Virginia, but throughout the United
States, are saying such kind things
about Hon. Charles C. Carlin. member
of the house of representatives from
the eighth congressional district OF
Virginia, that his friends at home are
extremely gratifed by the recognition
he is receiving. Washington cor
respondents who are generally not in
clined to throw bouquets at any one
except the men from the sections
which are served by their own papers,
are almost unanimous in declaring Mr..
Carlin to be one of the strongest men
in the house, and predict brilliant
future for him.
When Mr.. Carlin first entered Con-

ly with the support of the people of
Alexandria but during each year OF
his service he has done so much work
for the people of his entire district

DIR. FRIEDMANN'S
TUBERCULOSIS CURE.

According to an announcement made
in New York yesterday Charles E..
Finlay, president of the Aetna Nation
al Park, who offered last week to pay
100000 to DR.. f. F. Friedman, of
Berlin, if he would bring or send his
supposed cure for tuberculosis to this
country and have it proved effective,
said yesterday that he knew that DR.
Friedman would surely bring his cul-
ture to New Yorl; in person and that
he would sail for the Uni.ed States

within a couple of weeks. Continuing

within a couple Of weeks. Continuing
he said:
~ have insisted upon his coming"
said Mr.. Finley at his home at Great
Neck today. "His brother, who is
here in New York, has received a cable
from him telling that he is ready to
start for New York and will sail with
in week or two. He is coming here
to prove his assertions that he has at
last found tuberculosis cure and If
he Should fail why there is nothing
lost"
MIR. Fimlay does not look upon the
payment of the million dllars In the
event THAT the cure is cure as men
of the medical profession here in this
country do. He says he has offered
| it more as reward and to make it
certain that Americans have the bene-
fit of the cure. He intends to make
the culture public if 1T is a success
and to found hospitals Within and
without New York where it may be
administered.
81 regard it with business mans
point of view" Said Mn. Finlay. "Of
course do not stand to make dollar
by 1T. I am going TO pay the expenses
of finding out whether it is cure or
not. That means an outlay of perhaps
$4,000. But that isn't much to risk
if we run the chance of getting a pos
tive cure for the white plague.
This action upon the part of Mr..
Finlay is commendable. The white
plague has been defying the medical
profession from the beginning OF
time, and should DR.. Friedmann's
treatment prove successful all gene
rations will cali him blessed.
