"THE POWER
OF THE PRESS"
DlHCUESod by Eov. M. C. Elliott In n
Splendid Discourse at the Congre
gational Church, in Which He Pays
Tribute to the Dolly Newspaper.
Splendid Musical Programme.
It wiib ii large and Intctestcd coiiric
cation thai listened to Itov. M. I'.
Hlllott preach on tlio "Power of the
Presc" ut the Flint Congregational
eliurcli, Inn! night.
T.llu' the set man lie v. Mr. Ulllntt de
livered before the Knights Templar,
nnd over which thorp has been so liuicli
favorable comment, the one lust night
Miowd th" lostilts of very haid .slilfly,
and Ii was 'hip devoid of attack on the
secular publications-.
Mr. Klllott used the words of raul to
Timothy for a text: "Give iittetidmico
to reading." During his splendid dls
eoiiryp, Pev. Mr. Flllott said:
"One duty Paul never neglected, the
duty of, self-culture through leading,
C'eitaln i ntnpatiloni wete ever with
him his favorite authors. Saner In
tellert than his never ttod tills pnith,
and rould he speak to our use, with
lis ftet and fever, his mrssoge would
certainly Include some woids about the
companionship of Rood books, maga
zines and p.ipet".
"Modern civilization ban Its flower
nnd fruitage In books and citltute for
all, through readlnR. Should the rlicani
of the HMtonotner come true, and sci
piirp establish a codp of electric signals
with the people ot Mais, our first mes
sage -would not be about tnRlnes, ocean
slenmcis, or Inoms Not the 'phone by
which men speak aeioss continents,
hut the publications, by which HvIiir
men and, dead men convoi'-e across
centuries, Mould bo the 'burden of the
first message. For wise men the joys
of reading aie life's crowning uleas
urefc. Books and dally newspapers are
the ppople's universities. ihcie souls
are the piofcssnrs. Rooks nnd dally
newspapers are the looms that weave
taptdly man's Inner garments. Hooks
and dally newspapers are the levelers,
not by lowering tho gicat, but by lift
ing up thp small.
"Wisdom and knowledge are dcihed
tiom sources many and vailed. Uko
ancient Thebes, the soul is a city hav
ing1 gates on every side. There is the
eye gate, ;md through It, pass friends -a
multitude of strangers the fniests,
the fields, the matching clouds, TheiP
is the ear gate, and therein go hooping
all sweet songs, nil ennveisalion and
eloquence, all laughter with Xiobe's
woe nnd gi Icf. There is oonveisatlnn,
and therehv we noss the Ihte.shold of
.mother'? mind, and wander tluough
the i hambers of imagination, Hut these
faculties aie limited. The pnrwas made
fur one sweet sung, not a thousand.
Conversation is with one friend living,
not with llapliael or Pericles. The vis
ion stays upon yonder horizon: but be
yond the line wheie e.nth and heaven
do meet aie distant lahds and histoid
scenes: bevond aie the Parthenon and
the pyiamlds: hut literature comes in
to increase the power of the vision.
Literature auses the arctics and tiop
ics, the mountains and hills, all the
generations with their wins and woes,
the achievements for fieedoiu and ic
ligion. to pass befoie the mind for In
struction nnd delight. And when liter
ature has made men contemporaneous
with Socrates and Cicero, when It has
made man a citizen of every clime and
country. It goes on to advantages still
more signal."
At this point the speaker lefened to
the gieat minds of the past and how
the achievements they had made in the
held of literature had left their mails
upon the world.
Continuing, he said: "The piess of
todayis exercising a tremendous power.
It arraigns political parties, straightens
out corporations, unearths cilme, and
discusses strategic points in states
manship. It opens a large mission for
the church by disseminating Sunday
thoughts througli the week. It Is itself
a liberal education. If not controlled
by a clique, or elan, It is indeed the
people's benefactor."
In referring to the average news
paper, Mr. Klllott said he had no do
sire to see tho good dally transformed
into a paper wholly religious.
In concluding, the speaker discussed
tho Bible as the literature of character,
which ho treated in a vety foiccful
manner.
Thn music last night was a partial
repetition of that given on Ascension
day, nnd was up to the usual high
standard for which tho choir has be
come noted. Mr. Naylor presided at
tho organ, nnd held the audience In
ccstacy with the prelude.

SOME INCIDENTS
OF COBB'S FLIGHT
Constable Neary Speaks of Hla En
counter With His Mmdciotts As
sailant Cobb Fired on the Con
stablo Befoie He Used the Knife
How Ncoiy Missed Wounding
Cobb.
Since Constable Neary has been ablo
to be out and talk of his encounter
with his wild assailant, Nathan Cobb,
much light has been shed on the clt
cunistanees of the happening,
An ititeiv.stlng bit of Information If
Him Cobb was not only armed with
it muideioiis knife, but with a levnHer
iiKi, and that befoie they came close
to each othci, Cobb tiled to end
Neaiy's Hie with bullets fiom th1
pistol, tiling at least two shots befoie
be (limbed tho bank leading up to the
railioad tracks, Neary himself Is ail
Ihoilty lot- this, nnd In- Is t-oiioboraled
by ope of (he paitlcs who accompanied
him, and who seems to be the only one
who, In the excitement, braid tho te
porl of Hi" pistol.
Ncnr, in (elating the sllirlng slnr,
says that when Cobb dashed out of the
hut Hie dogs jumped tor him f tlio con
stable) bill the delay lulef as it was,
as long enough to allow Cobb to get
a lair .stall and be off tluough the
g-ndeu Inwaids the Delawatc & Hud
son railioad. Neaiy Hew alter Cobb
and befoie Ihev had gone many feet
the latter tinned on his puisnrr and
filed a shot fiom his icvolver. The
bullet whizzed lo the ear of Neaty
and sent a tin ill through the consta
ble as it sped bj.
Cobb Hied. Neaiy says, Just as he
was about to elinib the embankment
lly the time he i cubed the top of the
bank and Mailed aeross the lallroad
I lacks Cobb was panting fiom the cc
eition ami inn, while Neary had Just
awakened to the chase. Neaiy icall.ed
this was hi opportunity to halt Cobb
and when his assailant was only a
few feel ahead of him the nllleer, with
reole ju his left hand and his stout
cane in his light hand, shouted to bis
assailant to suuendci. "I'll sui ren
der, .Vvirv," same the smpilsing leply
of Cobb, indicating lli.it he iocoqnizd
his piusuei- Cobb at this lime was
si Hiding on th" taihoad track, with
his hands uiuaiSed, In an attitude of
;.m lender. Neaiy approached him
cautiously, lie was unable to se Cobb
plainly, onl. the dim outlines of his
foim. Neaiy tightened his gtip on his
cane ami advanced to Cobb. When lie
was nlmo.-- on top of the old man,
Cobb diopped his banc anil gae Neaiy
a ipo aciiiss th i hook. The blow
staggered the (unstable and It was fol
lowed b two or three leiotis jabs at
Nc.nj s side.
The blow that Cobb gave Neaiy
waen he shuck out with ills Nnlf
..taggeied the i (instable, who lustlucl
iely Mi nek back with his cane. The
blow lell shoit, m the dainkess, and
N'ii pailly lost his balance, and be
foie lie could leeover himself Cobb
was oil" again. Neaiy changed his re
oler to his right hand and dNchaiged
II In the dhectlon that he thought
Cobb was Hoping. The blaze from the
I nn i th ilihi barge lighted up live duik
ness and Nc.ny could see the haid
bead of the old lieinilt beloio him.
Theie was ouo bullet left, and with his
pistol io"tiug Cobb Neaty snapped
th1 tiiggei. The eaitridge Tailed to
I'Mdi'de. howoer, and this, Neary di -claies,
I-, the icason that Cobb escaped
being killed, or ut least wounded.
in Satiuday, when Neaiy was enip
l.ing his ieoler, he found unox
ploded the eaitridge that he telied on
halting Cobb's Might, and the only ex
planation for its preseiu c Is that he
must have luadvei lently moved the
e.vlinder aiound during the excltc
uiiiil and thus thjew the loaded shell
out of position.
Since Cobb's (light an examination
lias been made of his 1iut and beside
the door througli which he made his
esit an axe was found, and the police
bcliou' that the old heinilt stood on
guaid with this weapon In his hands
ready to wield in case the door was
Inokcii in upon hint.
No moi other than the steps already
taken has ben made to apprehend
Cobb. It Is known that he Is hiding
with his relatives in ciuvnfleld town
ship, but In mder to avett tioublo
Chief MeAndiew Is biding his time to
taek Cobb.
Twice last week, the most i event
visit being Satiudiy, Cobb's hut was
visited bv his half hi other, "Jess"
Cobb, who op each occasion look away
some belengings of the fugitive.
Among the urtlih-s was a satchel,
with h together with uilicr goods, was
supposedly taken to Chbb.
