Rev BILLY" Sunday preached Tuesday
afternoon on The withcred Hand in the
Church." He said;
Luke Vi, 6: Jesus went into the syna-
gogue on a Sabbath day. and he found
there a man with withered hand
He was not dead waiting for an un-
dertaker TO take him TO the graveyard
he was not blind and cropping his. way
70 the coffin; he was not deaf or dumb.
have known many men who found II
impossible TO do certain things because
Of a wfthered hand. A withered hand Is
worse than no hand; Il seems TO be al
ways in the way. Il IL no better than a
dead hand: there r. no work II can do.
no design II can execute.
A man may be a great genius, but he
is greatly handicapped with a withered
hand. You can see what a barrier It
would be 20 him. He may have the
genius OF n Raphael. but he is only half
a man
The hand IL one Of the most important
members OF the body. None OF his ideas
could find expression on canvas, in mar
BILE. OF in architecture. because he had a
withered, useless hand. He may be as
fun OF music as Paderewski. but he could
never play a piano because OF his with
cred hand.

lie the hand that carries the food to the
mouth; II Is the hand that viii put a
gun to a mans shoulder and murder his
dearest friend; II is the hand which rocks
the cradle; II was the hand that built
the ships in which Columbus discovered
America: II is the hand which builds our
battleships; II Is the hand that makes
our cannon and rife; II was the hand

in the wilderness; II was the hand that
wrote the Declaration Of Independence;
Il was the hand that built the locomotive,
the steel mills; Il was the hand wired Il
and lighted it; It IL the hand that builds
the telescopes that enable us TO study
the heavens; II Is the hand that sends a
message that speeds like the wind under
the sea to a country you have never
visited; Il was the hand that wrote the
Bible; the hand that built the pyramids;
the hand plucked the fruit in the garden
Of Eden and the world is suffering from
the result today; the hand held the sur
geon's knife which prolonged your life
the hand Of Judas took the betrayal
money; the hand scourged Jesus; the
hand placed the crown OF thorns upon
His brow: the hand nailed Him to the
cross and the hand took Him down; the
hand placed him In the sepulcher; the
hand rolled the stone away and discov-
cred that He had risen.
You can find persons with withered
hands everywhere. They cannot do the
work in the world they would do because
they are handicapped. The drunkard
can't do what he ought to do because
of drink; the woman who lies causes her
womanhood to wither; she can't live the
kind Of live she would hive. because she
Is withered. In every church there are
people who cannot do what they would
do because they have given themselves
to the devil; they are withered. You say
you can't do personal work; it is because
you are wlthered.

estate valued at $4,000 to his widow,

ton filed by Mrs. Munger the Judge left
real estate valued at $1,000 and personal
property worth 5000. Jud, Mungers

GOVERNOR BOOMS
THE QUAKER CITY
Says National Republican Conven-
ton Should Be Held in That
City Next Year

Governor Brumbaugh to-day gave
his hearty support TO the movement
TO have Philadelphia selected for the
next Republican national convention
and Will take off his coat to work for
il. The last convention held in the
State was in 1900. and the Governor
says it is Philadelphias turn. The
Governor said to-day that the city
should have the convention cinched
early and reiterated what he had TO
say yesterday about the importance of
the campaign.
The Governor said:
II am in favor OF bringing the Re-
publican national convention to Penn
sylvania. II would be my desire 10
see it meet in Philadelphia. l believe
that Philadelphia has the accommo-
ditions for such a convention and
think the Republican party would be
benefited by the move.
1t is my further desire to see the
State Of Pennsylvania act as leader of
the Republican forces. The acts Of
the present Legislature will have
much 10 do with the position this
commonwealth will hold in the affairs
Of the nation at that time
1t is my intention to do all possible
TO make this state the factor il should
be in the next presidential election
and therefore I naturally will pledge
my support for any move TO bring the
various delegations to Pennsylvania
to deliberate.
II there is a feeling against Chi
caso as the convention city. PhiIadel-
phia would be by far the most logical
! remaining center Pennsylvania is
more interested in the affairs of the
government under our next President
than any other state in the Union.
1t is Pennsylvania that feels the
blow struck by the Democratic tariff.
Pennsylvania is unquestionablv the
stronghold OF the protective tariff. II
is impossible for our industries to
prosper under a free trade tarirf
schedule. We are held hack by its
effects We nay wages that are too
high 10 compete with the competition
We should stand as a unit in Penn
sylvania and AZ the convention demand
our rights OF protection We shouId
shout down the other burdens imnosed
upon US. The income tax has been a
! failure 1t again throws the burden
on the manufacturers of this state II
IS the leaders of the northern indus
tries that bear the brunt of its bur
den. II is discrimination against the
North in favor Of the South.
The nresent Legislature has the
position the people of this great com
monwealth will take at the next cleo
tion well in hand II ii passes the
legislation the people without doubt
have demonstrated they want II will
command respect for party principles
II II does not. the party will suffer and
lose the support and respect OF the
people.
The care OF the people has been
the object of the Republican leaders
and il has always been found that tbe
neople IN return have taken care of
the party"

CARDINAL BELIEVES PEACE
PLANS ARE IN GOOD HANDS
Sci q u TcL.rrneL

Baltimore, April 13.-The combined
influence of two great powers-a great
spiritual and great temporal power
such as the Holy See and the United
States of America. ought to succeed in
accelerating the much wished for
peace.
Cardinal Gibbons to-day thus voiced
his comment on the widely discussed
peace message of Pope Benedict Ky,
cabled to America.
Il presume the interview is an au-
thentic one he said. earnestly. "and il
it is. it reflects great honor on the
paternal heart of the Holy Father,
who manifests so earnest a desire for
the early close of the war ] was also
much pleased to see that he enter
tains great hope that the United States
government may be very potent fac
tor in bringing the war to close"
