LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
(Under this heading short letters of In
terest will be published when accompa
nied, for publication, by tho writer's
mono. The Tribune 'will not be held re
sponsible for Opinions here expressed.)
Church Contributions and "Half Time."
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The great cry from the pulpits
these days Is: "Lack of contributions to
carry the good work on; the Rome Mis
sionary society Is In debt such an Rtnount;
and the Foreign Missionary society Is In
need of funds, and everyone of you ought
to contribute more." As a miner, I voice
the sentiments of the majority of miners
In this city In saying that we need more
to pay our dobts than we can possibly earn
these days. The average earnings of a
miner do not exceed $30 a month through
out the year. Inquire, sir, what dainties,
what luxuries, a family of six can buy
with $20 a month; and still tho preachers,
like Oliver Twist, "ask for more."
Our God Is a God of reason as well as a
God of love; and when 'the poor miner fulls
to contribute towards God's great work he
still stands as high in the estimation of
heaven as a Jay Gould, who will build a
church to perpetuate his name, or as a
prle3t or preacher who will demand a
thousand dollars saltiry from a poverty
stricken congregation. We send mission
aries Into Africa, Japan 'and other foreign
countries to evangelize the savage, while
here! In the city of Scranton, dwell hun
dreds of persons who never hear a word
about God, except In an oath or a curse,
and still wo want money to send mission
aries to the east to hold confabs with
Tipoo Tib and his brethren.
"Charity should Btart at home" is a
good saying,; and in my. humble opinion,
missionary work should start at home,
too. "Let us save Athens first and
Corinth afterward!)." 3fes, sir, let us al
leviate the suffering and succor the poverty-stricken
miner in this city first, and
the pagan afterwards. The word of God
Is so dear those duys that a congregation
will have to pay from $600 to $l!0,ouo to hear
a few sentences from It, whllo tho Author
Himself blushes at the price charged for
the copyright. Yours respectfully,
George W. Uowen.

MR. STURGES' TALK.'
Describes What Ho Saw in China, Japan
nnd Ceylon.
The Sunday school rooms of the
Green Ridge Presbytorlnn church werq
crowded last night, when E. B. Sturges
delivered the second of his series of
talks on "His Trip Around the World,"
illustrated by a stereopticon. He
opened with a few scenes: of house life
In Japan, describing particularly the
difference between tho Japanese and
Chinese. He showed the Holy Moun
tain of Japan, also views of pilgrim
ages to It.
He then described his voyage across
the Yellow Sea .to China, and said that
there never was a more fit name on a
place than on this sea, for the blue
ocean Is lost In the yellow mud which
Is carried down Hy the rivers at the
rate of hundreds of tons annually, so
much so that Shanghai, which was a
seaport a few years ago, is now four
teen miles inland, and he predicted that
at the present rate In a few hundred
years Japan and China will be united.
The main difference between the two
countries, especially tho lower classes.
Is In cleanliness, for while the Japs are
clean and neat In their personal appear
ance the Chinese are directly the oppo
site;
The- best portion of Shanghai Is the
foreign quarter, which contnlns about
three times as many flue build
ings as does Scranton, besides a
number of parks. Another great dif
ference from the Japs Is the style of
parks, for, while the Japs love nature
and cultivate It to the highest possible
extent, tho Chinese love the grotesque
and arrange peculiar rocks. But when
ChlnabeeomesChrlBtlanized it promises
to be the greatest nation, in all re
spects, of the east, even rivalling
Japan, for they are honest and can
cultivate a great degree of Intelligence.
The greatest evil to overcome in their
education Is the fact that there is over
6,000 characters In their language, mak
ing It very difficult ito learn.
From China Mr, Sturges went to
Ceylon and described the beauty and
grandeur of the tropics, but said that,
notwithstanding the conveniences
there in the way of having fruit for
the plcklnff and rare beauty in nature,
there are also so many dangers, that
he would rather live in the temperate
zone.

CHARGED WITH PERJURY.
Alexander Smith Committed to the

preferred against Alexander Smith, of
Bellevue, by W. J. Kelly.
The prisoner was given a hearing be
fore Alderman Hore, of the Eighteenth

W hy Ho Sued.
In an Oregon court recently a case came
up In which a husband sued to regain
possession of real estate which, In a mo
ment of generosity, he hud deeded to his
wife. The following dialogue took place
between the plaintiff's lawyer and the de
fendant, a lady of Irish birth:
'You admit that your husband requested
and even Implored you to execute a deed
In his favor?"
"Yls, For, ha did, and shwore at mo,
too."
"And you refused, point blank, to do so?"
"Yls, sor, I did. I toul him a dado In me
hand Is wort two In mo husband's pocket.
But I offered to mako a will In favor of
him, and ho wouldn't have It. He told me
he'd sue me for a dude."
"And you allowed him to do so?"
"yts, sor, I did. I says to him: "John,
mo darllnt, sua away; but ye'll find Its a
coso whore ye'll have to take the will for
the daile,"
