Personals.
The auditorium of the Jackson
Street Baptist church was crowded
last evening with an audience that
taxed the large Beating capacity of the
church. The services wcro the llrst
of a series of popular meetings, which
will be conducted by the pastor dur
ing the winter months, and proved
to bo highly Interesting In every c
spect. The choir, under the direction of
Prof. Lewis Davis, sang anthems and
materially assisted In the service. The
half hour song service was one. of tho
most attractive featuios of the even
ing:, tho rendition of "Sweet Kest at
Home," to the tune of "Suwanea
Itlver," being particularly helpful.
Dr. do Gruchy took occasion to re
marks of the mission of his chuich,
in view of tho reopening, after its
renovation, nnd said:
"Our mission becomes distinctive
because we represent the Baptist de
nomination and therefore represent
distinctive principles. We are sons
and daughters of Bible-loving scions,
men who loved the truth, we aie de
scendants of the nobility of the past."
In bringing before his congregation
the magnitude of tho Baptist denomi
nation, he said the church has 3,820,000
members In the United States, and
there are no babies either. There is
4F 000 churches and 30,000 ordained
ministers, seven theological seminai
les, twenty-seven educational institu
tions for women, fifty-seven ncade
mies, thirty-six universities and col
leges and 130 newspapers
"Our mission," he said, "Is thnt we
stand so that every man on oaith
can worshslp God accouling to the
dictates of his own conscience. Our
hope in the futuie lies In influencing
loyalty to the tiuth. Our mission is
the mirsion of Jesus Chi 1st to men
and women of the West Side."
In closing, hp added: "Be loyal
to the word of God, be loyal to the
principles of the past, for tho lUory
of the principle and tiuth Gods needs
effective men and women, and may

The Woman in Black Is
Always a Woman of Fashion
For black is uever out of style and never will be as
long as good taste and present ideas as to what is cor
rect in woman's dress remain with us.

covers the whole realm of textile fashion, and does it
more thoroughly than can ever be attempted in a col
ored or fancy stock.

Once more wo arc indebted to a

mett that throws moro light on a sub
ject of over-lncrcnslng interest. Peo
ple have been deceived by falso mls
lopresentatlons from time Immemorial.
No wonder they aro skeptical of all
claims endomed by strangers, residing
In far-distant patts of the Union. It
13 no longer necessary to accept such
endorsements, for local citizens aro
giving their testimony, and 'tis an easy
matter for any read?r to Investigate
the correspondence.
Mrs. MaiKoret Moses, of 1C0J Wash
burn stieet, Hyde Park says: i'For a
number of years off and on I had at
tacks of dull pain and weakness In
tho small of my back, stooping or the
least exertion Increased It, and at
times I was unable to work and had
to have the sei vices of a doctor. There
was a kidney weakness which was
annoving and dlsttesslng, particularly
at night. I saw Doan's Kidney Pills
advertised, and they weto recommend
ed to mo by a Mrs. Jenkins, of 113
South Fllmoie avenue. I procured a

"We regard with profound appton
hension the com so of the present ad
ministration in Potto Rico and the
Philippines Our piior acquisitions
were of adjacent teirltoiy foi the ex
tension of the area of constitutional
government and ci cation of new
states of tho union. We made their
few inhabitants citizens; our people
settled there; wo there established the
instiutions, of freedom. For the Hist
time in our histoiy it is now pio
posed that tho piesldent and congtess
&hall mli ovet vast teirltorles and
millions of men outside of our con
stitutional sjstem. Ofllclalh .swotn to
suppoit the constitution and deriving
all theii powets theicfiom have ac
quired colonies and assumed arbl
tiary authotity to govern their in
habitants without consent, and to tax
them without lepresentatlon. This
policy ofTeis to the people of Porto
Rico and the Philippines no hope of
independence, no prospect of American
citizenship, no lepie.sentntion in tho
congiess which taxes them. This Is
the government of men by aibltraiy
powei; this is impel iallsui.
"We believe that it is the flrbt duty
of the Ameilcan people to stamp with
their dlsappioval doctilnes so hostile to
liberty lind dangerous to constitutional
government. If they aie to remain fice,
and if their government is to continue
lopiescntntivp, their servants must not
have or exercise any but constitutional
powois. Between the claim ot freedom
that all men aio entitled to equal
political lights and the dogma of ty
lanny that might makes right, thcio
Is no middle gtound.
"We have not pi lor to this jcatsup
poited tlu candidacy of (Mr. Bryan,
We don't now concur In ceitaln of his
views on minor Issues. Yet his posi
tion on the supienio Issue of tho nies
ent campaign is so sound, and his ad
vocacy of It has been so able and cour
ageous, that wc now favor his clectton
as the most effectlvo way of showing
dlsappioval of Mr. McKlnlej's course.
Without claiming any special political
Influence, wo unlto for what our ex

REVOLT OP CRIMINAL
INSANE PATIENTS
Six or Eight Keepors Overp'owered
and Twenty Inmates of Mntte-
wan Escape.
By Kiclusiv Wire from The Associated Pre"
Poughkecpsle, N. Y., Oct. 21. There
was a revolt at tho Mattcwan State
hospital for the criminal Insane at 6.20
o'clock tonight, when six or eight keep
ers were assaulted and overpowered by
about twenty insane patients. Some of
the patients escaped and seven are still
at laigc. One or two of the keepers
are badly bruised as a result of the
assault.
After tho patients had been given
their usual Sunday night supper they
weie taken back to their apartments
in company with the keepers. Among
tho number w ere fifteen or twenty who
slept in one of the large corridors, this
being necessary on account of the
cramped condition at the institution.
In this hall with the patients were six
or eight keepers, who sat on their
chairs watching the Inmates as thuy
walked up and down tho hall in a test-
less manner. There were no suspicious
movements on the part of the patients
to Indicate that they had been plan
ning a tevolt of any kind. They looked
as they always did, first at ono keeper
and then at another, but the keepeis
did not think that there was anv
trouble in tho minds of their twenty
prisoners. Suddenly, and vv Ithout warn
ing, each keeper was attacked simul
taneously by two or three patients and
heavy blows fell on the heads of the
burpilsed attendants. There did not
seem to be any leader of the tevolt,
ami while the patients weie assaulting
tho keepers they would gaze at each
other occasionally, as If waiting for
tho woid to make the break for llbeity.
The keys held by the keepers were soon
taken from them and a rush was then
made for the door leading from the hall
into the dining room.
As the patients rushed thiough the
dining room each of them picked from
the table a heavy plate or cup or bowl
to use as a weapon in case they were
overtaken by the keepers. The lights
were still burning In all the depart
ments and the insane mob had clear
sailing. Fiom the dining room they
went through to an adjoining room,
the doors of which weie unlocked, and
then into the long hall leading to the
real entrance. The patient in ad
vance of the others was nervously fin
gering over the bunch of keys as he
ian, looking for the key to the rear
door. The keys weie well known to
them and the iear door was unlocked
without much loss of time. With a
wild yell the mob rushed out of tho
narrow door, lighting with each other
as they went, each wanting to bo in
the lead and to leach the outer gate
tlrst. Thiough the jard they ran ilka
deer and t toweled atound tho big sato
fn the wall while one ot their number
was turning the key in tho lock. When
the gate was tin own open, they rushed
out of the y.ud, fairly tumbling over
each other in their anxiety to be tree
again.
In the meantime the keepers who had
been ovei powered and who had rapid
ly lerovered from the surprise given
them by their assailants, soon sent In
an alarm to the main ofllce. Joinlu,;
the other keepeis they saw the pa
tients tunning aeioss the hospital farm
back of the main building. A hot pur
suit followed. In which all but sbeven
of the patients weto captuied.
Dr. Allison Immediately notified tho
police depaitment of the escape of the
patients, and it is believed that they
vnIU all bo captuied within twenty
four houts.
