When court was call.- to order yes terday morning. William feeott, of Scranton. was 1h first witness callod to the stand, lie U1 that he would n t believe Prank Shafer under oath. Jli met Shafer in a Puryea saloon, shor y after the explosion, and asked him whom too thouBht had done this thins. Shafer eabl he didn't know anything about it; that he was worklns tm that night and heard the" noise of the explo slun at 4 o'clock in the mornlnir. Emory Hotbinson, colored, f W llkes Barre. said he had' known Shafer for three years, and that his reputation, for veriM-'tty was 'bad, and he would nut believe him under oath. Constable James Galla-sher, of Wllke.i-Unrre. unit! he had looked for James Eaton, who Phafer had, aocordlng to his own con fession, Hold albouit the tunnel, but could not And any man of that name. Frank fflattry was then recalled and Shafer was a.ked If he ever saw f lait tery and tvplied that lie saw him once at Ms cell door. Attorney Aloilovern tried to prow tthat -Shafer tosttlled dif ferently at the habeas corpus hearing 'before Judjre Lynch than that which he gave ltfore court in the present trial. A delay was caused by MoUovorn UbmHttlntr portions of the lialwas cor pus testimony. The testimony was dis allowed and Shafer allowed to go. Thomaa Qirigley was called, to the stand, but the .prosecution lJected to his testifying. Sluufer's pivvious testi mony was also objected to and John Ulrd waa also called in rebuttal. The testimony which Wril was about to give waa objected to and Charles Dorsey was called and said he wrote several letters in the Jail for Hird. On cross-examination he said he was in JaM only once, but illr. Slcllovern proved thalt he was there more than once. Th cross-examination was amusing, and the slmrp questions of 'Mr. aioOovern and the w-itty answers of the witness caused considerable laughter. Detective iMdOafoe heard Jordan'say "You know you got money, as I did, and I am going to save myself." Wit ness was employed on the case by O'Brien and Quitfley. He advised Ulrd to tell the truth of the matter, as well as Jordans. Court then adjourned un til after dinner. At the afternoon session "Lor" Mosps was recalled and said he had talked with Charley Dorsey about the explo sion. Porsey told him that he (Dorsey) had talked with the accused und could get nothing from them. Dorsey's repu tation for veracity Is very bad. On cross-examination Moses said he was sure Dorsey had told him about pump ing the colored people at the Jail, and that they knew nothing about the ex plosion. Policeman 'Louis Heim swore that Dorsey's reputation was bad, and he was severely cross-examined by Attor ney Lenahan. Dennis Gallagher was recalled and said Charley Dorsey came Into Detective Mulvey's ollice and wanted work. Dorsey said O'Brien's detectives wanted him to work. He nlso said he heard McCahe say in Loh tr.ann's, after he returned from bring ing the colored people to the jail, that he tried to pump the colored people but failed. There was much cross-examination regarding the rival detective agencies employed on the case. Kdward Gates, the heavy-weight por ter of the Exchange hotel, was called and said he knew Charley Dorsey; that his reputation was bad and he would not believe him under oath. John McGraw, another policeman, said Dorsey had a bad reputation. This closed the testimony In the case, and at 3.15 Assistant District Attorney Fuller began the closing argument for the prosecution. Ho went over the evi dence carefully nnd dwelt at length upon Shafer's confession, In which he named Miller and himself as the chiefs in the horrible crime. He pointed to the case as the commonwealth had made it out, nnd asked for a verdict of murder in the first degree. His plea lasted nearly an. hour and a half and was a very able effort. A Kind Act. 'William lieslle. of the Klmlra Tcle frr&m, did a charitable nnd generous action when he collected $110 for John Cannon, a poor blind man wfth a large family, who was recently evicted from his 'home in the Five Points be cause he could not pay the rent. Mr. Ijeslie -went among the business men and lawyers and collected $100 In three hours. This) morning Ihe received a talegram with $10 from Mr. Brooks, of the Telegram Publishing company. The money was placed in the Wyoming Valley Trust company, and the poor, blind miner was given the bank book. BRIEF NOTES. J. F.

The recent outrages on American and English missionaries by the wily, inflex ible, bigoted and superstitious Chinamen has provoked wide discussion as to the real progress made In the work of evunne lizing China and whether the results Jus tify the enormous cost In life, suffering ami money. Jn a letter to the New York Tribune. Kev. Mr. Uonehoo, a 1'resbyte rlan clergyman of Pittsburg, ulthoiigh earnestly In favor of Christian missions generally, speaking from his experience among the Chinamen here, says: "1 have never yet found one who gave evidence of thorough' conversion to Christianity, though I have known a large number who have been In our Sabbath schools and a few who have professed conversion." Mr. Donehoo's observations are corroborated by those of Amerlcnn an. I English naval olflcers, merchants and other representa tives who have visited China and lived among the people. They all testify to the devotion, the sacrifices of the pious nnd zealous men and women, but believe that the enormous expenditure of money and effort and valuable lives Is practically wasted, so far as the Chinese people aro concerned. George Curzon, member of the British parliament, in his book on "Japan, Coreu and China," devotes a number of puges to ths subject of Christian missions in tho east. While warmly commending noma features of mislonary life in the east, ha endeavors to give to western renders mi Insight Into tho nature of Chinese opposi tion to Christian missions. One of the ob stacles to effective missionary work Is the disagreement between tho various Chris tian denominations. Thus, the Jesuits, the American and the English Protestants hnvo each a separate name for Deity. The Jesuits adopt the title Tien Chu, or Iinrd of Heaven. The Americuiu) prefer Chen 8hen, or True Hplrlt. The English I'rot estnnts adopt the Chinese Hhan-tl, or Su preme Lord, the name of the deity wor shipped upon the Altar of Heaven at I'ekln. The failure of tho different de nominations to agree upon pome form In which to present the Scriptures is an other source of difficulty. Mr. Cnrzon says that tho constantly In creasing employment of women, particu larly unmarried women, by the missionary bodic. Is another cause of misunderstand ing. Large, numbers of young girls are sent out for missionary work to Jnpnn and China from the Cnlted States, as well as from England and the colonies, of the 1.300 I'rotestnnt missionaries In China In ISO", 7W, or more than half, were wo men, and of these till! were unmarried. The Institution of sisterhoods, planted by the side of male establishments anil the spectacle of unmarried people of both sexes living ami working together, al though well understood by western nnd Christian society to be entirely consistent with Innocence nnd propriety, arc not so regarded by the Chinese. .Mr. Curzon mentions that In 1893 one man and twenty Swedish girls In a remote Inland town of Chinu were conducting a propaganda by parading the streets, ilnglng hymns and trumniuig tambourines ana guitars. Again, It Is said thut the missionaries have shown a want of tact tn selecting sites for ehurehes and private houses. It seems that a Chinaman regards an edifice set up on a hill with alarm and suspicion. Europeans always nrefer an elevated site. nnd they choose also to have a high wall tor purposes or privacy and protection While the Chlnuinun's depraved imiiglna. tlon anything that RtiKgests aecrecy nils a aire, unit s nister siKtitncanee. Anotnor source of difficulty la the refusal of the Christian converts to contrlbuto to the ex penses of the manv semi-religious lestl vals thnt are so Important a part of Chinese custom. This lends to the social ostracism of the convert. His name Is expunged from the family register and ho Is debarred Irom all privileges ot ine lamuy l ie. Hut the question of chief Importance Is, What are tho actual results of missionary work In Chinu, us shown by tho figures Those results, us shown by Protestant mis sionary publications, are thut the converts claimed are less than ono III every lu.KHI of the Chinese population. How far these conversions are ifenuino cannot be doll nilely known, but if the statements of careful observers who have visited China uml studied the situation with some car are lo be relied upon, very few of them ur sincere and permanent. The recent ntro. Itles are evidence thut Instead of being attracted to Christianity, Chinese niullg nltv iik'niiist the missionaries Is more in tense thnn ever, and their evniiKelixutlun practically Impossible. As Mr. Uonehoo hhvs. even In religious enterprises. It well to usk If tho gumo Is worth thu candle. INSH-TICIKNT SCHOOL KOOM From the Philadelphia Press. With lia,.,i'.H,olii spent unuunlly In tin support of the public schools of the Lnlle States II would appear us If every one el thu H.K".,Ki children of school uge shook have ull the facilities neevsaury fur ob tabling an education. Some of this goei Into pcrimmctit Improvements, Il Is true but if thu rest was equally distribute, a. cor. ling to school population theii would be un average of lit least lu for the education of each child enrolled. Hut II Is not evenly divided, Massachusetts; ex pending aliuut $'" for each child enrolled New York about $'Ju and I Ynrisylvaiilu ?Hi while South Carolina spends only l!.d"i While here is a great disparity It wool, seem thut the llrst three stutes ought il be amply provided with school faeil.tles. Hut It Is in these neighborhoods which spend the most money for schools, and es pecially in thu large cines, wnere ine ioiiu est eoimilaints are mailt of Inadequate facilities. The beginning of the present school year has made this fuct more than usually prominent. From every one of the largo cities In the north the uniform story comes of a luck of school room. Even In Huston, which prides Itself on its public schools, tho facilities are found far below the demand. In some purls ot that city the authorities have been compelled to erect temporary wooden buildings In connection with the mum school nouses, where tho younger classes can be accom miniated. Hut this shows a disposition at least to give un opportunity to every child to obtain an education. The outloolc In New York city is less en couraging. Thnt city's school enrollment is ubout I'Xi.Ooo, but of this number nearly one-tilth Is unable to find room In the school houses, uml this notwithstanding the fact that thnt city spends nearly Jii, (NKi.wit) ii n ti un I i v on Its schools. The situa tion In this citv Is well known. ith an annual expenditure of $2,7j.uuo and an en rollment of l.'to.ooo pupils there are prob ably otie-lirih as many more who could not be aceommoduled with sitting room In the school houses. Chicago had ITii.OUO children enrolled In Its schools when they opened last week, but notwithstanding the most strenuous exertions and the renting of iil't rooms outside the school buildings It was found that there were H.miO more children than could be accommodated . Tirooklvn, with an enrollment of 1lS,noo, rt..!o: n'ltl. JniMHI l-t'lltltllltl'A U'lth ill . mm nnd St. Louis Willi So.im) enrollment i.il find themselves in tne same emuurrassmg circumstances. Tilrning a child a v. ay from the doors of a school house and shut- llm, If etf fmm thn IrnnH'l.'ilfFM It looks so uncivilized nnd un-American that It is a stgni lew euro io coiiieinpiuic. And yet It has been done in thousands of eases during the past ten days and In iltles. that prldft themselves on their wealth and social progress. If this is the situation In the better favored ne'ghhor hoods and where the greatest effort 's made to supply tl-i demand, what must l.e the condition of things In rural districts nnd In stnte where only one-tenth as much is spent In providing school accom modations? Some of the reasons given for the dis couraging stale of- nffnlrs In the large cities are of an emlnetly practical na ture. The Indianapolis Journal thinks that It is caused partly by the disposition to erect elaborate and expensive school buildings instead of plain, substantial structures. Not long ngo a war was be gun In Chleneo on the "fads" In the schools of that city which used un money which, It Is claimed, ought to ho spent In more useful wavs. These "fads" are the teaching of Lntln, higher mathe mntics. the modern lnnguages and music. Politics Is nlso the cause of the wnste of much schorf money. School expenses would naturally Increase with the popu lation, but In recent years they have grown out of all proportion to this In crease. Tho American people do not be grudge liberal expenditures for the educa tion of the rising generut'on, but they do nsk thnt the money for which they n-o laved shnll be conscientiously and skill fully spent for tho purpose Intended. LET US HELP CUBA. A Pertinent Oucstlon. Chicago Timea-Ilerald: "Tho rumored Intention of Mexico to recognize the bel ligerency of the Cuban revolutionists was not unexpected. Indeed, It Would be strange If all the Lutlii-Amerlcun coun tries did not take some such step to show their appreciation of the sturdy courage ot their kinsmen. They have felt the barbarous misrule of Spain. They know her 'cunning; and her greed, her cold, hard heart nnd willful deed.' It tuny not ba long before every Amerlcnn country fac ing upon the Atlantic ocean from Argen tina to the keys of Florida w.ll take the altitude toward the Cubans which is warranted by their long suffering under oppression and their brilliant courngo in rebellion. Then will the I'nited States of America of ull American nations continue to look upon the struggle with Indifferent eye? fir will If tuke is proper place in the leadership of free states. demanding free dom for ull the western hemisphere 7" Time to Kick Spnln Out.'

And It Is within fhe range of the possible that this sentiment muy be crystallized before long. Spain has quite enough on her hands at lintne, She has l.ttle busi ness to be bothering about in these re gions." Tnko a l esson from tho F.ncmv. Pittsburg Dispatch: "Spanish efforts to prevent the recognition of Cuba Indicate a belief that such nction would involve something more than moral support.
