s THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1898. TYPHOID FEVER IS STILL PREVALENT IT IS KOT DUE TO THE PHESENT CAMP, HOWEVER. Those Who Aro Now Suffering Brought the 1'cvcr Germs from Other Camps Members of the Thirteenth Are Very Much Inter ested in tho Project to Bun an Ex curslon from This City Much Complaint Because No Bread Was Issued Tuesday. Special to tho Scrnnton Tribune. Camp Meado, JlldJletoun, Pa., Sept. 7. Typhoid fever still continues to claim Us lctlms, but tho nudlcal ofll cers are dolnc their best to offset It. It Is a healthful country here, but many of tho men have brought with them the terms of the disease ftom other camps. Everything, however, Is being done to counteract Its Influences nml effects. The physicians are active, and the authorities of neighboring cities nro rendering all possible help in tho mat ter of taking care of the sick. The City hospltnl, of Ilarrlsburg, Is already Inking good care of a number of pa tients, and the Sanltnry hospital, of that city. Is ready to treat all cases of contagious diseases. Twenty patients, suffering from ty phoid, were lemoved Monday night from the Ited Cross hospital to the Lancaster hospital, and the Medico Chlrurglcal hospital, of Philadelphia, which performed such excellent ser vice for this corps, nnd especially for the First division, has not yet relaxed In Its efforts, and Is now preparing to remove over one hundred more patients fiom here. "With the exception of thos cases which have been developing for some das, but contracted elsewhere, the general health of Camp Meade Is good, and certainly nn Improvement on what it was at Camp Alger. COLONEL BOIES' VISIT. Colonel Henry M. Boles, formerly commander of the Thirteenth regiment, accompanied by his wife, his two daughters, Miss Boles and MIts Helen Boles, and his son, David Boles, was n welcome visitor here yesterday. The party arrived In the forenoon and spent pome scare moments in looking oer the camo of the regiment nnd In ad miring the beauty of the surrounding scenery. They wereaccompanled by Col onel Coursen, Lieutenant Colonel Mat tes, Major Stlllwell, Major Surgeon Keller, Adjutant Louis T. Mattes and Adjutant Walter Qunster, and after their tour of inspection had dinner with the staff. Colonel Boles and fam ily weie serenaded by the regimental band, conducted by Sergeant T, II. Miles. The following programme was lendeied in fiont of headquorteis: "Crimson flush" Ituell Alexander "Idol's Kjo" Victor Htrbfrt "Heirts and flowers" Tobnln "American fantasia" Victor Hcrbt.it The band played at its best and Col onel Boles tthowed his appreciation by n gift of a twenty-dollar gold piece, dgars and llbeial refreshments. The isItois left in the evening. EXCURSION PROJECTED. Bcfoie tho departuie of Colonel Boles your correspondent had an Interview with him and Colonel Com sen In re paid to an exclusion from Scrnnton, which has been rumored around camp. Colonel Boies stated that before leav ing Scrnnton he had talked the mat tr oer with Colonel Hippie and sev eral otheis, all of whom agreed not only that It would proe a grand suc cess, but also that they would do ev er thing in their power to help It along. The Idea Is to run a train early in the morning leaving Carbondale at f. o'clock, Scrnnton at 7, Wllkes-B.irre at 8, and so on and get heio at noon. From the depot to the Thirteenth's ramp the trip would be made In am bulances, the regulation army wagons and in bandwagons all of which would be both novel and enjoyable to the pxcurslonists. They could return that evening, leaving hero at 7 o'clock. Colonel Coursen stated that he was highly pleased with the project, nnd that he would ask General Graham for the use of some army wagons and am bulances for a few hours that day. He felt quite sure that they would not bo refused, especially considering the purpose for which tho excursion will be mn. The purpose for which tho excursion will be run is to give the people of Scrnnton and of the Lackawanna val ley a chance to see this country, at a cheap rate, to Inspect a camp of large proportions, nnd at the same time to turn over to the staff and the differ ent companies of tho Thirteenth the surplus for buying whatever extras may be needed. It Is felt that there are hundreds of people In and around Scranton who would take advantage of such a trip. NO BREAD ISSUED. The bread question reached an acute Btage in the Thirteenth esteiday. For some time the bread which had been lbsuod was not fit to be eaten by a human being with nn ordinary stom ach, unprotected by triple plates of Harveylzed steel. The men ate it un der protest, and In some cases it was entirely condemned. Yesterday a Jocose change was worked on the boys they got no bread at all There was a mighty howl. Tho water supply Is still inadequate, owing to the inabil ity of the quartermaster to get any wagons, though they are in one an other's way down at the depot. A few loaves of bread were distributed to each company yesterday afternoon. Tpsterday a message was sent by the members of company C to Lieutenant William A. Haub to procuro in their name a floral offering of a pillow and having inscribed thereon tho words: "To our comrade. From tho members of Company C, Thirteenth regiment. T. V. I," and sent it as a maik of respect for their late comrade Alvln L. Evans. It is probable that a squad lepresentlng tho company will be sent home to attend the funeral. All the boys, both of the regiment and com pany C, In particular, regret Private Evan's death. If Uncle 5am does not hurry up and send his paymaster here pretty soon there will be eight hundred nnd forty eight cases of bankruptcy recorded In this regiment. Tho men are hungry and thlrstv but have not a cent of money with which to buy anything. If Justice was done this would be called "Camp Poverty." All look forward to pay and at least ono square meal af ter a seven day fast. Lieutenant Johnson, of A, was officer of the day yesterday; Lieutenant Tootc, of D, ofllcer of the guard: War len Coin ell, sergeant of the guard: V'lll'am nrngo, of D, Edward Frear, of C, and William Bane, of A, corporals. Private Joseph Leonard, of D, Is regi mental orderly. Private John Jordan, of D, goes homo this evening on a seven day furlough. Prlvato Ales. Arnold, of C, Is slightly indisposed. Much unfavorable comment hai been made on tho way In which prls. oners nre treated at corps headquar ters. , Yesterday afternoon a member of the Thirteenth was by mistake tak en In charge by the patrol In Har rlsburg nnd had to spend the night In tho guard house and received noth ing to eat from three o'clock yesterday nfternoon until ho was returned here this morning at ten o'clock. In this war, undertaken in behalf of humanity, such treatment of nn American vol unteer seems Inexplicable and inex cusable. With tho thermometer 11C degrees, no refreshments this side of Harrls burg, not a pou in the pocket and pay day Invisible to tho naked eye, Corporal George Schmidt, of E, stret ches himself on his bunk these after noons singing to himself tho plnlntlvo melody "Wennleh Ccld hab bin ich lustlg Weim lch kclns hab, bin ich durstlch." "He who runs may read" but not drlnl.. Richard J. Bourke. CAN READ BIBLE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS Concluded from Pago 3 03 Pn 4G3, Justice Sharswood says: "It Is In entire consistency with this Bucreu guarantee ot tile lights of con science and religious liberty, to hold that, even If Christianity Is no part of the law of the land, It is the populur religion of the count! y, an insult to which would be Indictable as directly tending to disturb the public peace. Tho laws and institutions of this state nie built on the foundation of rever ence for Christianity. To this extent, at least, It must certainly be consid ered as well settled that tho relulon ieealed In the Blb'a Is not to be cren ly reviled, ridiculed or blasphemed, (o the annoyance of sincere believers, who compose the groat mdJ3 of the good people of the commonwealth." There are numerous other cases along the same line which could bo cited. However far one case may modify the other, they all recognize the one gen eral underlying principle that "the laws and Institutions of this state uie built on the foundation of reverence for Christianity." Other illustrations of this principle arc furnished by cus toms, laws and decisions relating to other mutters, such as the opening of state leglslatutcs and congiess with praer, the custom, not now compuls ory, of swearing by the Holy Book, tho recognition of the Christian Sabbath to tho lxcllls!rm nf nnv nttior' tlw. .in hibition of worldly labor on the Chris tian Sabbath, the refusal of courts to excuse jurois and paitles trom at tendance on das by them consldeied sacred: the making of Good Triday a legal holiday; the exemption of church inoperty from taxation, the vailous forms of oaths administered In couits, and many other such Instances of the recognition of Christianity in our Jur isprudence which do not now occur to us. And in a state where Chris tianity seems to pervade its laws, customs and Institutions, to such an universal extent, can it be said for a moment that the reading of the Bible In the public &chools, without com ment, Is sectarian Instruction, or thnt such an net violates the rights of con science or Is In derogation of anv con stitutional principle? We decidedly think not, V. We do not understand how the read ing of the Bible In the public schools can be termed sectarian Instiuctlon. The Bible Is not n sectarian book On its broad foundations Christianity rests. Without it theie is no Chtistlan lty. This proposition is leeognized by --ui. uivisiuii ui unrisienuom through out the whole woild. It Is not the book of any sect. Our attention is called to tho fact that there aie two vers ions of the Holy Scriptures, the Douay and the King Jnmes version, nnd that they differ in many puitlculars. The study of these differences Is Interest ing to the theologian and the Bible ficholur. We have noted over fifty points of difference, some minor and some important, but they do not con cern us. The Bible In either version is sub stantially and essentially tho same book. The following definition of the word sect taken from the Stundaid dictionary Is as good as any we have seen: "A body of peisons distinguished by peculiarities of faith and practice from other bodies adhering to tho same Keneial sstem. Specifically, the adhei ents collectively of a paitlcular creed or confession; a denomination: com munion; as, the Presbyterian sect; the various sects of Jews, Moham medans, or Christians." The assertion that the Biblp, in eith er version, Is a sectailan book, borders on sacrilege, and this phnso of the question deserves no further consid eration at our hands. But bo far as the constitutional pro vision in Pennsylvania on this branch of tho case Is concerned, it differs materially from the provision in tho Wisconsin constitution, the Wisconsin ense being practically the solo author ity referred to by the counsel for plain tiff Section 3, Article X, of the Wis consin constitution is as follows. "The legislature shall provide by law for the establishment of district schools, and no sectarian in struction shall be allowed therein " The provision in the Pennsylvania """ uctiiires wiui no money snail be appropriated to or used for the sup poit of any sectarian school. The term 'sectarian schools" in Pennslvanla. has a definite meaning. The history and development of tho educational stem ns well as the policy of tho state, has fixed this meaning so that there Is no doubt about it A sectar ian school Is a school controlled by a particular denomination or sect To such a school there can be no an pioprlation of public monev by the state. And yet It is seriously argued thut the reading of the Bible without comment at tho public school In Wav erly as a part of the opening exer cises Is In violation of this provision of the court of Pennsylvania The mere stntement of this proposition empha sizes its absurdity Hut we do not base our conclusion upon this conten tion Wo go further und say that tho reading of tho Bible as aforesaid would not be sectarian Instruction undei the clause In the Wisconsin constitution VI. The rending of tho Bible In the pub lie schools may also bo ullovvcd, and even commended, from a standpoint which does not involve the question of sectarlun Instruction nor tho rights of conscience. It Is conceded by men of all creeds that the Bible teaches the highest morality. In this connection ye cannot do better than quote the Innguugo of Justice Story In the cele brated Girard will case, 2 Howard, IT. s" 12J-.."Why may not the Bible, and especially the New Testament, without note or comment, he read and taught us a divine revelation in tho college its general precepts expounded, its evl- Aro gaining favor rapidly, Huslnesi men and travel' lers carry them In yest pocktti, Udl.i carry them Pills til DUriPI. hauillfflPnrA 1 n than.

POWDER Absolutely Puro ovi hakim rowoca ca., htw vomc. deuces explained, and Its glorious prin ciples of molality Inculcated? "What Is there to prevent a work, not sectarian, upon tho general evi dences of Christianity, from being read and taught In the college by lay teach ers? Certainly there Is nothing In tho will that proscribes such studies. Above all, the testator positively en joins, 'That ull the Instructors and teachers In the college shall take pains to Instill Into the minds of the scholars the purest principles of morality, so that on their entrance into active life they may from Inclination and habit evince benevolence towards their fel-low-cieatures, and a love of truth, so briety nnd Industry, adopting at the same time such tellglous tenets as their matured leason may enable them to prefer.' "Now, It may well be asked, what Is there- In nil this Inconsistent with the spirit or truths of Christianity? Are not these truths all taught by Christianity, 'although It teaches much more? Where can the puiest princi ples of morality be learned so clearly or so perfectly as from the New Tes tament? Where nre benevolence, the love of truth, sobriety nnd Industry so powerfully nnd lireslstlbly Incul cated as In the snered volume?" Tlie pilnclple undetlying these words of so greut a Jut 1st as Justice Story, Is applicable to our public schools. Apart from religious Instruction it must be admitted that sound morality Is one of the foundations of good char acter. An education which does not Involve the Inculcation of moral ptln clples Is Incomplete. And why cannot the common precepts of morality be taught by the reading of the Bible better than In any other vvu' It Is Instructive In this connection to examine the opinion In the AVIs consln case, 177 Wis., 213. Although against the reading of the Bible In tho public schools the judge who writes the opinion admits tho position we have taken, In these words: "It should be observed, in this connection, that the above views do not, as counsel seemed to think they may, banish from tho dlstilct schools such text books ns are founded upon the fundamental teachings of the Bible, or which con tain extracts therefiom. Such teach ings and extracts pervade and orna ment our secular literature and are Important elements In Its value and usefulness. "Such text books are In the schools for secular Instiuctlon. and rightly so. and tho constitutional prohibition of sectailan Instruction does not Include them, even though they may contain passages from which some Inferences of sectarian doctrine might possibly be drawn. Furthermore, there Is much In the Bible which cannot justly be characterized as sectarian. There can be no valid objection to the use of such matter In the secular Instruction of the pupils Much of It has great his torical and Uteiary value, which may be thus utilized vv lthout violating the constitutional prohibition. It may nlso be used to Inculcate good morals that Is, our duties to eat h other which may and ought to be inculcated by the district schools. No more complete code of morals exists than Is con tained In the New Testament, which reafilims and emphasizes the moial obligations laid down In the command ments Concerning the fundamental principles of moinl ethics, the religious sects do not disneree." VII. As to tho w eight of authority In America there is no question. The only decision directly holding the practice of leading the Bible in the public schools to bo unconstitutional Is the Wisconsin case already leferred to. The Ameilcnn EncclopnedI.i of Law. vol. 21, p. 775, says: "The practice of opening school exercises by leading fiom the Scilptures has been attacked as sectarianism Generally, however, the constitutionality of the practice has been upheld." In Maine, It was held In Donahoe vs. Richards, 3S Me., 379, that a requirement by the superin tending committee that the King James version of the Bible should be read In the public schools was In viola tion of no constitutional provision, nnd binding upon all membeis of the schools, though composed of divers re ligious sects. In Massachusetts It was decided In Splller vs. Woburn, 12 Allen, 127, that the committee might require the schools to bo opened each morning with reading from the Bible nnd with player, In Illinois nnd Nevada a sim ilar view was taken. In Iowa, Moore vs. Monroe. 64 Iowa. 307, It was held that a statute providing that the Bible should not bo excluded from the schools was constitutional But tho couit left tho use of tho Bible In tho schools to the option of the teachers, icsincieu uniy uy ine ruovision mat no pupil should be required to read it contraiy to tho wishes of his par ents or gunulians. In Ohio, In a case that was aigued In the court below with more learning nnd moio elab ointely than any case on tho same question In any other forum (Board of Education vs. Minor, 23 Ohio, 211), the higher court refused to decide the con stitutionality of the rule requiring the Blblo to be read In the schools, lodg ing the decision of the question In the board of education, to whom tho legls latuie had committed the exclusive management of the schools. Thus It will bo seen that If the question be fore us is to bo decided by the weight of authority, as expressed in the de cisions of the various states, there be ing only one common pleas case In Pennsylvania, It must be decided in favor of the defendants The argument suggested by tho Iowa and Ohio cases Is worthy of serious consideration. The legislature has committed the management of the public schools to boards of control or boards of school directors. In con Junction with the teacheis, thev de cide what hooks shall be used In the schools. Whv cannot tho question of reading the Bible In the public schools, as part of the opening exercises, be left to them? This Is where the ques tion has been piactlcally since the common school system wns estibllshed In Pennsylvania In some schoolH th Bible Is rend In others It In not. There Is no law requiring It. there Is no law prohibiting It If it is read, the constl tutlon Is not disturbed. If a board should decide thnt It shall not be rend, why Is not such action within Its dis cretion? Wo are not deciding the case nt bar upon tho basis suggested bv this argument, but we can enslly seo how, upon this basis, nnd upon this ulone, the court of last r?sort may fin ally dispose of tho question. Now, therefore, the above case hav ing been fully heard In open court and argued by counsel, It Is ordered and decreed that the bill of complaint In said case be dismissed at the costs of the plaintiffs, and that thn IrHimr-tir,,, hrtofore granted be dissolved.
