Address of the fletliodist Bishops. 1 -"Hi; ADDHKSS of the bishops to the aietliouist perioral confeienco, lead last Thurs day by Wallop Andryws, and ton I'tiiMirlly BUniniiuizcil at the time in tho press repoi ts, deserves and will leeclve the thoughtful uttcntlon of le IlKlous people everywhere. "We present hi'iewltli a more llbeial review of its moio linportant contents, abridged fiom the columns of tho Chicago Tlmes-IIer.iId: rolntinpr out that the Methodist Epis copal church has inei eased In num bers' only lOTi.OOO persons, or about 4 per cent., since the last Koneial con ference four years uro, the address Mates that this is a less ratio of in creafeo than has often come, but ex plains It in part from new metlioas of registering the membership, and from civil distractions, such a-s the war with Spain, which had its effect in all probability In holding down membership, as did the civil war. In its time. Then with hopeful note the address continues: "The plain Infer ence from these facts Is that, while any decline In the rate of increase in any quadrcnniuni should be occa sion for solicitude and careful Inquiry, It should not be the occasion for des pondency and evil forebodings. Thero may be petlods of silent preparation for growth as well as periods of ob lotis growth. In the future, ns in ths past, small gains may scon be followed by large gains." Numbers are not, however, legarded as the ciilcilou of tho chinch pro gress, jienovolences, doctrinal fidelity and tho spliitual lire are all reviewed, and of them the address says: "Tho returns of benevolences show a con siderable though not huge gain over those of the pieccdlng iuadrennluin. "Wo rejoice to report our belief that tho theological convictions and teach ings of our church aio In the main unchanged; that thiough Its entlid extent, at home and abroad, the es sential Christian verities, as received fiom our fatlieis and by which i have hitherto minlstcicd successfullv to the kingdom of CJod, are lirmly held and positively pioelalmed." loiter in their address tho bishops discuss u great problem which Is of lnteiest to every denomination of tho Christian chinch, in its effort to teach tho word of Jesus under the condi tions of wealth and luxury in modern life. The question Is frankly put: "is tho church now doing the work of the Master among tho lowly?" Equally searching are these other questions: "Will an educated ministry consent to keep In heart-touch with men Ignor ant or only half-trained? "Will It bo content to live plainly, that it may reach plain people, and be supported by them? "Will our rich men forbear social extravagance and social dis tinctions In tho church, that tho gospel may better do Its ofllce for all men.' How many of our churches be bullded and managed that in them at the same time the brother of low degree may rejoice in that ho Is exalted, and tho rich in that he Is mado low?"" Tho bishops have no answer to this but one of trust. They preface their questions by Rdmittlng much of truth in the al legations often heard against churches .that they aio Jlcli men's clubs Instead yt true religious bodies, and they say Mn the end only this: "No questions ,Aiore perplexing, more solemn, moio Kent than these confront us today. Is an ago of great wealth: an ace ulso pr keen-sighted, organized and Belf-assertlng labor; an age, therefore, pf conflicts, ominous of unmeasured evil. The future of the church and of humanity Is at stake. Shall wo v,icncv tho original work of Methodism nnu thus renew Us triumphs? 'Ilavs we thoj lovo and tho wisdom adequate to tho hour?" Concerning tho time limit of pastoral service, tho address first presents the following points with reference to tho existing system: "(1) That tho aver age terra has been but slightly, If at all, increased by tho change. (2) That only a small proportion of our pastors remain In the same charge for llvo years. (3) That tho extension of tho limit has manifestly caused with many pastors and churches a restlesi "desire for changes at the end of one or two years In appointments which might easily have continued for three years If that length of tlmo had been tho limit. O) That of tho pustors who continue for five years some would not have continued so long but for tho limit, while others of them might profitably live continued for u looser period." Then comes this suggestion; "Wo nre, therefore, of the opinion that If the general conference shall op- poso a return to tho three years' limit of annual appointments, with well d'cllned and caiefully guarded provis ions for nccessaty exceptions to this limit, then an entire removal of the time limit of annual appointments would be of advantage to the work." Tho address comments on the ten dency of ministers to remain In narrow limits and to cast off their traveling characteristics, and commends the su perannuated preachers to the -better care of tho church. It also comments with disapproval on the tendency of ministers and congregations to prear range appointments before annual con fcienccs meet, expressing the hope that If this continues more reflection will be given the matter and fuller Infor mation secured by both parties to the arrangements. Tho twentieth cen tury thank offering of $20,000,000, and also the appeal of the bishops for a week of prayer and for revival work, are referied to with expression of con lldence in success from both forms of work. After reviewing quickly tho many auxiliary church organizations and presenting their needs, the addres.-j has this to say of the action of tho confeienco In granting equal represen tation to the laity: "The vote indi cates a romaikablo npproach to unan imity throughout the church. We do site to place on record our hearty con ctincnco with this action. ICquallty In ministerial and lay representation, now made possible by tho concession of the ministry, Is the natural, Just and gen erous consummation of tendencies In separable from the growth of our church, This hour fulfills prophecies latent In our earliest church life." "What." tho uddress asks, "can we further give to Chrlstlun unity? Lit tle pel hups in a formal and ecclesias tical way. The times nre not ripe for any general movement. "Wo must, as should other churches, still hold the tiuth as God gives us to see It. AVo must still do our work faithfully, by our own agents und methods, In what ever fields call us. Hut, doing this, wo should even more than heretofore give diligence to keep the unity of the spirit In the bond of pence.' "We must unhesitatingly grint to other churches the ample tolerance we claim for ourselves. We must honor thein ns branches of the True A'lne. as tem ples for tho Holy Ghost. "We must beck opportunities for the expression of Christian fraternity and for co operation and we must study, with earnest and unselfish Jisire to solve, the dlllleult pioblem of many churches in scanty fields." Inspecting tho personal life of Clnlstlans and their relation to gov ernment and society the nddress ad vises preachers to use caution In their social teachings, and not to be dog mntlsts of the grade which must be ranked with charlatans. "It is ob vious," runs the addrers, "that tho solution of particular economic prob lems Is not within the province of the chuich. The church has no authori tative message concerning trusts or labor uniens, lockouts or strikes, cap ital or wages, tariffs and taxation, currency and colonies. It is neither appointed nor fitted to dictate social or economic laws. 'Must then Its as seinblle?, Its pulpits and its press ab stain from discussion of such ques tions of applied Christianity? Must It be silent on Issues which burn with in the hearts of men? Hy no means. Its gospel Is for tho redemption of all life. Hut its discussion must bear a peculiar, n Christian form. They must proceed under the profound conviction that character and not outward con dition Is tho supreme sphere of tho church: Unit incomparably the largest contributions which the church can make toward a social millennium are Christian men and not social theo ries." Intemperance Is pictured as an evil greater than the slave trade, and a reference is mado to. the "Inexcusable miscarriage of the canteen law." The church is urged to stand more firmly than ever for temperance. Concern ing laxity of divorce and the decline of "the glory of the true and -pure family" another warning Is given. Amusements nre also discussed in the same connection, and the tendency to excess Is condemned. The hard task of discriminating between admissible and inadmissible amusements Is an nounced to be before the church. The bishops commend "Wesley's sagacity in declaring as the rule for Methodists simply tho prohibition of "the taking of such diversions as connot bo taken In the name of the Lord Jesus," but thoy advise that a cogent statement of the perils of many amusements bo placed In the discipline. This Is their language: "Closely associated with other evils is the popular passion for unwholesome, coarse and debauching amusements. Whoever watches the dally press cannot miss the evidence of shameful degradation In the thea ter, concert and dance hall, and on the race course. And the tendency to great excess also In other compara tively Innocent forms of amusement cannot escape attention. The serious ness of life .seems largely forgotten, Its opportunities of usefulness unoccu pied, the vigilance necessary for righteousness relaxed, and the love of tho passing world gaining In master fulness. It is not to be wondered at that every earnest age has tended to reprobate all amusements as Incom patible with the Christian life. Ex perience has shown that It Is Impossi ble to Impose on youthful and Imma ture Christians a law which muny a saintly soul of thoughtful choice Im poses on itself. Tho attempt to en force absolute abstention from recrea tive amusements reacts toward unre strained indulgence. A discrimination between the admissible and the Inad missible is, therefore, Imperative. So great is the danger to spiritual life that we suggest that It would ba profitable to place among tho special advices of the discipline a brief but cogent sum of perils which ottnch to many amusements, of tho evils Insep arable fiom others and of the princi ples by which tho Christian should regulate his cholco among and his uso of them." To vlgoious denunciation of Sabbath desecration Is added a determined plea fur Christian citizenship, in cluding theso words: "Now if over tho Christian man should ho tho Chrlstlnn citizen. On the ono liHtid, recent events havo thrust on tho Amerlcnn people new problems which only tho highest and purest statesmanship can solve. On the other hand, colossnl evils, not of recent date, menace our civilization. Some have been already named. Add to them the corruption and venality chnrged upon much of our political life, the political ownership of cities and states by ono man or n few men whose will Is law, the unrestrained Immigration of thu Ignorant nnd vicious, the Increasing uso of mob law and lynchlngs for the regular pro cesses of delnylng and often distrusted courts, the sharp hostility of classes readily passing Into violence nnd mur der, tho suppression of tho civil rights of the negro, and the mili tary spirit vigorous and valuable, yet liable to Incite to inexcusable wars these are among the perils that confront our Christianity." Tho conference finds In this nddress a safe nnd comprehensive guide to ac tion. No stronger ecclesiastical mes sage has been written In this generation. The arrest of the former chief finan cial agent of tho Cuban postofilce de partment on a chnrgo of embezzling $100,000 of government money Is not made less pleasant by the fnct that ho Is an American. Wo trust that ho Is Innocent, that there has been a mistake. Hut if he is guilty, ordinary punishment will not sufflce. There will bp need of exemplary Justice. The People's Affair. THE CENTRAL point In Judge Archbald's timely charge to the grand Jury upon the subject of violations of tho liquor law, the lesson which needs to be thoroughly impressed upon the pub lic opinion of our community, Is that one violation of the law tends to In duce another: that respect cannot bo maintained for law In general If par ticular laws by common consent arc permitted to fall Into notorious disre pute. The man who persistently Ignores the law requiring tho taking out of a license to sell liquor is not without ex cuse in the fnct that the protection promised in that license against illicit competition is withheld. Yet he hlm fielf adds largely to the laxity of pub lic sentiment which permits the liquor laws to bo violated without dread of punishment; for he constitutes a walk ing advertisement of the fact that law bi caking Is a safe occupation. Judge Archbald has made clear that higher than constable, policeman, mayor, district attorney or judge on the bench Is the power of public opin ion as retlected In the Jury box. The twelve jurors who try each case are drawn at random from among all classes of the population, and upon the whole they fairly represent a rough average of the varying opinions of classes and sections which combine to form public opinion. No safer method of government has been devised than that which puts tho sovereign power directly into tho hands of the people to bo governed. They can then order the kind of government which they like, and change it when it ceases to sat isfy them. Thus It Is that Juries, who represent this rule of the people In the processes of our courts, have It In their power and nre In public duty bound to stand for law and order, not only with re gard to great crimes against property nnd poison but toward crime and law breaking of all kinds. They are the people's commissioners who sit in the place of judgment upon the facts in a cause at trial; If the facts show that a law of tho people has been broken, re creant Indeed will be the people's trus tees If they permit sympathy or preju dice to nullify Justice. Tho law broken today may bo only a liquor law; but if that violation Is overlooked by a lenient Jury whv should the law breaker of tomorrow hesitate to go a step further in his con tempt for tho statutes and commit out rage upon property or person? Tho mistake back of most of this prevalent laxity In public opinion Is in the widespread belief that a few citi zens only are Interested in halting the violations. It may be that a few only are active In the work of detection and arrests; but every person In Lacka wanna county Is directly concerned, both In his pocketbook, In his physical safety and his nioial welfare. In tho question of law enforcement and good order. Good order means lower tnxes; it means a safer community to live in; it means an atmosphere more congenial to the development of contented homes. In their hearts the men who violate the liquor laws know that they ought not to do so; while their tongues find excuses their better nature condemns. Improvement In these things It not to be expected in a miraculous manner; but the pressure for It must fit the un deniable necessity. -- Ono of the "Insurgent" newspaper organs Intimates that Attorney Gen eral Elkln Is a coming power In Penn sylvania politics. The word "coming" only partly expresses the truth; for to a considerable extent, as tho in surgents have to their grief discov ered, John P. Elkln has already come. The reasons which have mado him Influential naturally promise, ns poll tics goes, a continuation of prominence and power. Men who are honest, In telligent, resourceful, loyal to friends and yet broad-minded enough not to feel perFonnl bitterness toward politi cal opponents usually do "come" when thoy engage actively In politics and develop special aptitudes for or ganization and strategy. Mr. Elkln Is of this class. Unless a Populist party or something of tho sort Is organized in, Porto Rico, the affairs in that country will scarce ly bo accompanied by enough excite ment In future to veilfy the predic tions of tho nntl-admlnlstratlon pro phets. Judge Dunne of the Chicago circuit court has made final a decree against tho Associated Press In a suit Insti tuted by" tho Chicago Inter Ocean which, in effect, denies tho right of 7 JOHN GRIDLEY. Captain Crldlej'a don, John, of whom this is n photograph, has been appointed a second lieu ttrant in the tnarlni corps and will ihortly be assigned to a ship. The on ot the man to whom Dewey said: "Von ni.iy bruin" on that tncnmr. able May day In JUnlla lwy is sure of a wel come In tho n.iiy. tho Associated Press to make distinc tion among persons who wish to pur chase Information nnd news for pur poses of publication. Tho publisher who enn pay for the Associated Press service is to get It, no matter where he purchases other news. "The suggestion ot Charles Emory Smith for vice president has," writes William E. Curtis In the Chicago Rec ord, "awakened a cordial lesponse from many directions, and his strength as a cnndldnte Is piomplly recognized throughout tho country, but there is a good reason why he could not bo nominated, and Mr. Quay and the Pennsylvania delegation at tho Re publican convention will furnish It promptly If there Is any probability of placing his name on tho ticket." Wo believe that Mr. Curtis Is inaccur ate in his estimate of Colonel Quay's attitude; we doubt that Quay would oppose a general demand for Mr. Smith's nomination. Ho has no "good reason" to save the fact that he and Smith have had local differences. Hut those differences were not national In character nor do they concern tho great majority of the delegates who will assemble In Philadelphia. Quay Is a philosopher, not a bigot. He moved to confirm Smith's nomination ns postmaster general; and from this precedent Mr. Curtis can easily de duce a -different conclusion than tho one set forth above. Senator Teller appears to think that England would regard a pro-Boer res olution In the senate as a Joke. Agulnaldo shows a disposition to rival the famous Paul in the matter of farewell appearances. AMERICAN DIPLOMACY. W. K. Curtis in Chicago Itecord. Apropos of the complications with Turkey, n (literatim; ttory is told of a bit of tr.itKy th.it was emplojed by the Ibv. Dr. C'jnw Hamlin to secure tho original llrinln from the sultan for the motion of Huberts college. Dr. Hamlin and his assoulltis of the inlwloiury board, with tho aid of the United States minister, had been tiy Iiir for j ears to secure pel mission from the sul tan for the erection of a Clulstian college in Constantinople for the education of nathe mis sionaries, nnd while his ma jest 's promises were plentiful the formal penult could neu-r be ob tained, so they waited fiom month to mouth and jear to jear, lenewiw; their appliiatlo'is with more or less enemy ccry time an oppor tunity was offered, and receiving the most inr di.ll assuiaiKca and the most solemn promises, but nurr eettiu the foim.il llicmc. In the midst of their perplelty and discouragement a fleet of American men-of-war airltcd at Con-tan-tiioplc on a plejhuro iruise, and were rccehed by the tultan and the mui.bois of his court, as well as by the American residents. While Uit inff the flairshlp ono day Dr. Hamlin was aled by tho admiral if they could do anything for lidn. "Yes," replied the missionary, "you can ren der me a great t.crke if oa will instruct your officers and men to irqulro of ever body they meet when the firman for the erection of Roberts college is to be Issued. H is not necessary to say an thins further. Just ask tlicin to nuke the inquiry of eu-rbcdy they meet and say nothing more." The instructions were sent around the fleet and thereafter daily the officers and men would ak cicrjbody: "When will the sultan Issue the firman for Dr. Hamlin's college t" Three days later the document was issued; the iiistcrlous inquiries were reported at court from eiery direction and the sultan was convinced that the presence of the American men-of-war was due to his delay in carrying out Ids promise. It might lie well, therefore, to send ocr another fliet and instruct the officers to inquire wjien the sultan is going to pay that 'JO,000. t 4 44. 4. tysk 4 4? & wm CALENDARS ear.

I was talking with her one day about Ripans Tabules and what they were good for, when she told me that she was a great sufferer from constipation and that that was what made her feel so wretchedly. She was often so ill from it, she said, that she had to go to bed, and it had kept her away from the studio several times during the winter, and made her miss a good many days' work on account of the pain she suffered. I had some of the Tabules with me at the time and I gave her several, advising herto try them. She used them every one, and liked them so much that she afterwards bought a new supply.
