The "Salvation Army," queer as it is in
its make-up and methods, is now recog
nized in England as an evaugehcai agency
of considerable power. Its leader is
named Booth. He has been ; work for
fourteen years, although in comparatively
obsecure way until two or three years
ago. He is tall, dark, spare and angular,
with shaggy and gristly heard, piercing
little eyes and enormous Roman nose. He
is nervous, earnest and bold. He has
none of the gifts or graces of the style of
oratory which is admired in icliued cir
cles; but is a powerful speaker in his
rough way wheu he has an audience of
working people in sympathy with him.
His followers are managed iu military
fashion. There are one hundred and
twenty-flvc corps, with a station for each,
and one hnudred and eighty officers. They
endeavor to preach the Christianity of the
Bible, and to be iu harmony with all Gos
pel Christians, while they make no or
ganic union with any. Booth respects
all sects. He issues his orders to his
officers, and expects implicit obedience,
which lie generally gets. His book of or
ders and regulations is a volume of more
than one undred pages, going into detail
as to everything the officers and members
of the Salvation Army are expected to do.
The "Hallelujah Lasses" are considered
fUlly the equal of any of the male forces
in efficiency. Among the factory people
and colliers in the coal miniug districts
the iabors of the "Army" have been most
successfully put forth. Au official ga
zette called the War-Cry is issued more or
less regularly. It bristles with martial
expressions, and is full of the notion of
marching on the devil and annihilating his
forces. With all that is queer and odd in
Booth and his co-workers, he seems to be
honest in regard to the conversion of the
poor, for whose good he labors.
It will be remembered that the repor
ter of a Chicago newspaper lecontly ob
tained from leading clergymen there an
answer to the question : "What must I
do to be saved?" Canon Knowles, of the
Episcopal Church, emphasizes baptism as
an essential condition of salvation. Pro
fessor Patton gave as his answer: "Be
lief iu Christ as a Divine Savior and Sac
rifice." I)r. Thomas (Methodist Episco
pal), whom the Interior declares to be a
law unto himself, summed up his remarks
with: "The condition of salvation is the
turning away from evil and the turning
toward good." Dr. Noble (Congrega
tionlist) believed faith, regeneration and
good works to be essential Dr. Ryder
(Lniversalist) said: "Salvation is deli
verenee from the sins and limitations of
this life, and union with the spiritual
perfection of God." Professor Swing's
views arc expressed in the words, "Obey
God faithfully and thou shult find eternal
life." The Christian Instructor , organ of
the United Presbyterian Church, charac
terizes Dr. Thomas's utterances on this
subject a "strange teaching," and says
that in his stress on sincerity he "pre
sents a broader charity than Christ ever
taught." But the greatest difficulty of the
Christian Instructor is Dr. Thomas's dec
laration that "it is faith in some system
involving the Trinity, and a penal substi
tutional atonement and imputed righteous
ness." It affirms that such talk is fit only
for a Deist or Unitarian, and calls on the
Methodists "who certify to the purity of
Dr. Thomas's doctrine to rise and ex
plain."
Justice Traukey has saved, at least tern
porarily, the life of Mrs. Cathriue Zell of
Carlisle, convicted of the murder by
poison of Mrs. Mary Kiehl and sentenced
to be hanged, by reversing the judgement
of the lower court. The belief has been
general that Mrs. Zell is entirely innocet.
The victim, 82 years old, died last May, in
a little house in the outskirts of Carlisle.
There was a dispute over a few hundred
dollars left by her, and an attempt was
made to prove a verbal will in favor of
one Wynkoop, who had been the old
woman's agent. There being suspicion
that Mrs. Kiehl had been poisioued, a
post-mortem was made, which seemed to
convince the coroner's jury that she met
her death in that way. Suspicion pointed
to Mrs. Itebecca Reed, a cousin of the
wife of the district-attorney of the
county, Mrs. Catharine Zell and the man
Wynkoop. The district-attorney adopted
the theory that Mrs. Zell had admidistered
the poison at the instigation of Wynkoop.
These two were arrested and soon after
ward indicted for murder. The latter
has not yet been tried.
