SAYS BIBLE FORBIDS ORGAN.
Preacher Who Left Kentucky Church
Otvliig to UncMlon of .llunlc Defends
Ills Action.
Rev. I)r. J. W. MeGarvey, president
of the Bible college of Kentucky uni
versity and a noted writer, has caus
ed a stir 'throughout the south by his
■withdrawal from the Broad way Chris
tian church because the congregation
voted to install instrumental music.
He has traveled extensively in the old
world in search of Biblical curios, of
which he has probably the largest
collection of any man in the south.
He gave out a statement supporting
his withdrawal, in which he declared
that the use of instrumental music
in church was contrary to the teach
ings of the Scriptures.
Dr. MeGarvey was supported by J.
W. Zaehry, an elder and missionary,
who in the last campaign headed the
prohibition party as candidate for
congress In this district. He was
supported also by 20 other members
of the congregation. These latter
have taken their letters to the Chest
nut Street church, which has no
organ.

"John, don't goto work. I feel
sure that something is going to hap
pen to you." Mrs. Mary Johnson, of
St. Joseph, Mo., gave that warning to
her husband the other morning as he
started to work in the terminal
yards.
"O, bother," he replied. "Nothing
is going to happen to me. I'm all
right, and in no danger."
Three hours later John was picked
up from the Santa Ee track in the
terminal yards at Hickory street, af
ter the inbound Santa Ee train had
cut off both legs, crushed his hand,
mangled his body, and cut a gash in
his bead. He died later.
His wife dreamed during the night
before that he would be killed.

Carbolic Acid.
Only partial success has attended the
use of an antitoxin for treating- lock
jaw. When there is reason to antici
pate an attack, this serum cau be used
advantageously as a preventive. Hut
its curative value, after the disease
manifests itself, is not uniform. Some
times it does good and sometimes it
seems to be without effect. On the
whole, while reluctant to abandon it
altogether, experts recognize the fact
that this particular antitoxin does not
work as well as could be desired.
Attention has accordingly been di
rected by the medical press of late
to a system of dealing with tetanus
suggested by I'rwf. liaccelli, of Home,
lie resorts to injections of carbolic
acid, which is one of the most power
ful antiseptic agents known. The
idea of introducing germicides into
the blood to tight various bacterial
diseases—tuberculosis, for instance —
is an old one. Carbolic acid has been
a favorite resource in such experiments
also. However, its application to te
tanus is comparatively new. Though
the scheme was proposed several years
ago, the profession has given the pret
ence to the serum treatment. Now, how
ever, the liaccelli method is coining to
the front again. Italian surgeons are
enthusiastic over its effects. Prof,
liabes, Bucharest, who may possibly be
less prejudiced than Haccelli's fellow
countrymen, recommends its use when
serum is not obtainable —N. Y. Trib

l»«C of L«rk«,
The majority of locks which are de
signed to prevent a burglar from pick
ing and unlocking them are of suoh
a complicated nature that their cost
is considerably more than that of the
ordinary lock, with the consequence
that the cheaper locks are used in
many cases where the owner has cause
to regret it afterward. In our picture
is shown an English inventor's idea
for cheapening the cost of a lock by

using a pencil form of key. With the
common lock there is a slot in the
keyhole which corresponds with the
position of the tumbler in the mechan
ism. and it is through this slot that
the false key can be inserted which
throws the bolt. The essential feature
of this invention is a recessed wing,
which, being housed within the shank
of the key, requires no slot for its
passage through the front plate of
the lock, but which can be brought
into action within the lock to provide
an additional wing or projection to
operate the tumblers. As there is only
a very short slot projecting from one
side of the circular opening in the
front plate of the lock, it is almost
impossible to insert anything through
the plate which shall have a wing long
enough to move the tumblers after it
has once reached the interior of the
lock. The only difference in cost of
this lock over any ordinary pattern
is the slight additional expense for
the key. The invention has been pat
ented in England by A. 11. Wormald.of
Sheffield. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

BALLAST FOR RAILWAYS.
Laitoul Solivmo to Improve Koadbedi
I«* to Hun .Nearly Dry t eiueat
I ndeir the Tics.
Millions of dollars are being ex
pended in improvements on the large
railways of the country, tending to
ward the final end of increase in
speed and reducing the time occupied
in traversing the distance between
different sections of the country.
lJeeent experiments with high-speed
cars in Germany have shown that
the roadbed itself must be greatly
improved over the average condition
now maintained before trains could
be run at much faster speed. It is
not sufficient to remove the curves
and lessen the gradient, but the
tracks must be ballasted to the point
NEW BAIjI.ASTING METHOD.
of perfect rigidity before the rails
and trucks can stand the high speed.
To this end the improved method of
ballasting the tracks illustrated in
the accompanying drawing has been
introduced by William Uoldie, of
Wilkinsburg, Pa. While the introduc
tion of liquid cement beneath the
ties has already been practiced with
some degree of success, it has the
disadvantage of liability to displace
ment, should a heavy train pass over
the rails before the mixture has en
tirely hardened. This new process
overcomes this defect by introducing
the cement in a practically (try state,
and at the same time spraying over
it sufficient moisture to insure the
setting of the cement, but not suffi
cient to render it plastic or fluid, so
that, after having been packed solid
ly under the tie, it cannot become
displaced by a passing train, but will
remain in that position and set by
reason of the moisture imparted to
it. The cement is placed beneath the
tie by steam fro tit a locomotive, a
small stream of water being intro
duced at the same instant to moisten
the cement.—Louisville Courier-Jour
nal.
How Denfiionn IK Caused.
Deafness cannot be cured by local
applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing-. and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con
dition. hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition.
IlInK" n Fever Alairni.
There is a new medical invention in

is put under the arm of a fever pa

FIRST STAGE OF CATARRH
A Serious Mistake Which Thou
sands Are Making.
The first stage of catarrh is what is
commonly known as "catching cold."
It. may be in the head, nose, throat or
lungs. Its beginning is sometimes so
severe as to cause a chill and consider
able fever, or it may be so slight as to
not hinder a person from his usual
business. In perhaps a majority of
cases little or no attention is paid' to
i lie first stage of catarrh, and hence it
is that nearly one-half of the people
i have chronic catarrh in some form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
| catarrh. As soon as any one discovers
