only 100 were left Of 400 who start

he is recovering. Another like him
was found too late and died in an
abandoned house, where we found
him emaciated with nothing to
cover him as he had had nothing to
feed him.
And I can never forget the ex-
perience with the man whose Bit
ter misfortune had bereft him OF
reason. Animal-like in his crouch

at any unusual sound. With wide
staring eyes from a face put close
to mine as if to discern il this white
man meant to force him into SER
vice. I led him along to quiet
place and had him fed and provid-
ed with a shelter for the night.
But the next morning he had fled
as we found him without the SEM
blance of q garment and to what
had he gone? For who would care
for him in his wild terrified flight.
On Monday, two days before
Ebolowo'o was taken, at the request
Of the German Government we took
over thirty-one sick people, which
number was about doubled in the
next two days, with attendants and
machines TO care for them. On the
same day we received also by their
request several hundred war pris-
oners as refugees. These also in
creased in number so that by We'd
nesday there were fully 1000 re-
fugees under our care. These pris-
oners were mostly women and
children and old or incapacitated
younger men. They had been taken
from places near the war zone, lest
they aid the Allies with supplies OF
food or because they had given
such aid. Food was 10 be furnished

Wednesday morning IL was ap-

EVOLUTION-The modern doc
trine of evolution is well defined by
Prof James SuIly as a natural his
tory Of the Comos, including organic
beings, expressed in physical terms
as a mechanical process"
In an extract from his article he
states that ''the various grades of life
on our planet are the natural conse-
quences Of certain physical process
es involved in the gradual transfer
nation of the earth" Although this
theory may be correct, yet there are
so many theories pertaining to the
subject, each conflicting with one
another, that before one, can wisely
form a conclusion it is necessary to
understand both sides of the. ques-
ton
One of the chief theories of evolu-
ton is that the earth was not Great
ed, but gradually formed Still an
other writer on the subject argues
that the universe is the result of a
direct act of creation, etc. The grad
uaI transformation Of the earth, to
some extent, can hardly be denied;
but as to the beginning, if man orig-S
mated from some earthly substance,
or was created by a divine being, no
one'can say with absolute accuracy.
We can believe in evolution or crea-
ton, but we do not know that our
belief is right.
According to various authorities
upon Creatianism, man was made in
Gods likeness. All of his surround
ings, therefore, must have been
created in the same manner. If this
theory be correct, then the world was
perfect and complete from the be-
ginning, and, once made in perfect
ness it~mUst have been intended to
remain in perfectness. 1t is obvious,
then, that this world was not intend
ed to reach its present stage. Evolu-

The unexpected happened in the na- tional convention which met m New York on July 4, 1868. Months before the party leaders had decided upon the nomination of Salmon P. Chase, who had become estranged from the Republican party. The well-lald plans were upset by the poilt1cal cfalt of Samuel J. Tilden, who brought about the nomination of Horatio Sey- mour of New York. Second place went to Frank P. Blair of Missouri.
 The Democratic national convention held at Baltimore on July 9, 1872, was a 1ifeless affair, it having been settled beforehand that the only hope for the Democracy was to indorse the action of the Liberal Republicans, who had nominated Horace Greeley for presl- dent. B. Gratz of Missouri, was nomi- mated for vice president.
 On the other hand, the convention which opened at St. Louis on June 27, 1876. was one of the most interesting and instructive in the history of the party. Samuel J. Tilden, who had se- cured the mastery of the party in New York state, was promptly declared the nomineee for president, and Thos. A. Hendricks of Indiana, for vice pres ident. Now the ill-wind of Kate Chase Sprague. who sought revenge for the defeat of her fathers nomination in 1868. lost Tilden the presidency, to which he had been elected by popu- lar ma iority of over 25O,OOO, furnishes one of the most interesting chapters ! in the political history of the United State. ....@@=--. ~, ~
 Tilden expected renomination at 1 the national convention, which met in Cincinnati on June 3, 1880. His plans miscarricd, however, and Gen. Win field s. Hancock of Pennsylvania, was named on the first ballot. With him was nominated William H. English of Indiana, for vice president.
 Free-for-Ali Race in 1884, It was a free-for-all race in the national convention, which met in Chi cago on July 8, 1884. Bayard, Thur man, Carlisle, Randall and other vet erans were among the entries, but all these were defeated by Grover Cleve- land, who four years before had been practically unknown outside his home city of Buffalo. The second place On the ticket was given to Thomas A. Hendricks of Indiana.
 1 In the national convention neld m St. Louis on June 7, 1888, Cleveland was renominated by a practically unanimous vote, and second place was given without dissenting voice to 1 Allen G. Thurman of Ohio.
 Acrimonious strife marked the sec ond Cleveland convention, which met 1 in Chicago on June 21, 1892. In this gathering there was bitter opposition to Cleveland and his renomination was effected solely by the superb leader ship of William c. Whitney. Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois, was nominated for vice president.
 l The national convention which met in Chicago on July 7, 1896, continued it's sessions through five days. and nominated William J. Bryan of Ne braska-a dark horse-for president, and Arthur Sewall of Maine for vice president, upon free silver platform.
 Bryan was nominated by acclama- tion by the national convention, which met in Kansas City in 1900, and with him Adlai E. Stevenson, who had been

REPORTS OF MARKETS COTTON-GRAIN-LIVESTOCK.
New York Cotton.

New York, June 14.-The cotton market only partly responded to weak ness in Liverpool today and after opening steady at a decline of 4@5 points, ruled within a point or two of the opening figures during the early trading or around 1279c for October and 12.97c for December. One of the private cables attributed the decline in Liverpool to hedge selling in a mar row market and said demand was like ly to remain quiet for the balance of the week, owing to mill holidays. The decline in ocean freight rates was also considered factor in the easier tone abroad and the failure of the market here to fully meet the decline probably reflected the tendency toward mar rower differences.
 The market became steadier late in the morning on covering and prices sold about 1@3 points net higher shortly after midday, with October .ad- vancing to 12.S6c and December to 13.O2c, or about 7@9 points above the low level of the morning.
 A private crop report making the condition on June 8, 785 per cent, com pared with TIA on May 22, showed less improvement than had been re- gently talked of, while the buying was also encouraged by the rather unfav- orable showing of the weekly weather report.
 The furry of covering on the less favorable crop reports soon subsided and trading was very quiet during the middle of the afternoon, but prices held steady around 12.s6c for October and 13.03c for December, or 2@4 points net higher.

New Orleans Cation.

New Orleans, June 14.---The price of cotton was depressed 5@8 points in the first half honr of business on this market today, chiefly by selling en- couraged by poor cables and private English advises predicting a falling off in the spot demand as the result of mill holidays. It was small market.
 At the lowest of the morning prices were 5@S points down. The summary of crop conditions for the week from :. Washington was considered unfacor- able ard caused buying, which put the ;most active months point over yes sterday's close.

Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, June 14.-Heaviness devel oped in the wheat market today, ow- ing to the fact that Liverpool quota tions were unresponsive to yesterdays advance. Rains in Oklahoma and Kan sas caused only a temporary upturn. The opening, which ranged from 3-8@ 1-2c lower to shade advance. with July at $1.O4 1-4@1.04 38 and Sep tember at $1.O5 3-S@1.06 1-2, was fol- lowed by slight net gains, but then a decided sag.
 After opening 1-s@1-4c to 3 Sc higher, corn prices receded to slightly under yesterdays finish.
 Oats were upheld by fair de1nand from commission houses and cash ln- terests.
 Provisions were but little affected by an advance in the hog market.
 Wheat closed unsettled, 1 1-3c to 1 5-8@1 3-4c net higher higher, with July at $1.02 5-8 and September at $1.06 5-8.
 Corn closedfrm at gain of shade to 1-2c net.
