Perhaps the most astounding revelation ever made in a house of worship came from the Hps of the Rev. Charles S. S. Brown, pastor of the Christian Church in this town, in a sermon on the evil results of gambling, for the preacher spoke from recent experience. Brown told his congregation that the passion for gaming utterly con sumed its victims, making every man of them forget fi lends, family, homo and God. He did not refer to himself by name, but every one in the church knew what he said was less a sermon than a confession, for he returned to town with a draft for $300 and re paid to members of his congregation that amount borrowed from several of them. He lost in a poker game in Kansas City a few days ago the loans he got from his flock. It was when he failed to repay the lenders promptly that they Btarted an investigation resulting In the discov ery that the parson had frittered away their money at the gambling table. Brown did not deny the charge. He contented himself with promising to raise the money, asking for a few days of grace. Then he left town and was absent until next morn ing. The clergyman, when the ciders of the church taxed him with his sin, said he had succumbed to a craze for gambling to which he had been sub ject years before. He thought he had conquered the passion forever, he said, but a few days ago, ilndiug him self In Kansas City and hearing men in a hotel remark that there was a poker game in a certain place, ho was seized with a desire to handle the cards and chips once more. Brown dressed himself in clothes as unlike those of his calling as he could get and went to the gambling house. He was admitted readily, and soon he was playing as if he had never entered a pulpit. He explained to the elders that it was the first time he had touched a card since en tering the ministry. It was before he became a clergyman that he did bis gambling of former years. To his amazement, the gaming fever was so strong in him that he lost all the money he had in his pocket. It amounted to $300. which he had borrowed in various amounts from members of his flock for a legit imate purpose. Brown, when he returned with the money necessary to reimburse his friendH, asked the leading men or the congregation to let him address tht men and women of the church one again. He said be had something tc sa.- to them which might work incal culable good. The elders gave their consent, and on Sunday night apparently ever) member of the congregation wbb in tho church. Women gazed at theit pastor with Bhocked looks. Mod watched htm with queer expressions. He seemed affected by the battery ol glances, but he did not flinch from the ordeal ho had set for himself. Instead, he walked with bowed head and steady stride to tho pulpit and announced that he would preach on the evils of gambling. A tipple ran through the congregation, for all knew of his recent experience, but everybody became serious again at sight of the man's white face. "There is no other vice that getf such a hold on a man as does gam bling," said the preacher, looking straight into tho faces of his flock "It consumes hlni utterly. Gripped in its clutches, he forgets his friends his family, bis home and his God. Once he yields to It he cannot tell to what lengths it may lead him. "Gambling has been responsible for lying, theft, suicide and murder. Its subjects are more abject slaver, than those of drink. There la only one thing to do when tho passion for gaming seizes one, and that is to fight it off from the first with all the strength at a man's command. For it the victim does not conquer early in the struggle, he will find it next to impossible to do so afterward." Women sobbed loudly as the clergy man proceeded with his sermon. Men who had gazed curiously at tho par son on his entrance looked at him with sympathy. The officers of the church appeared to be affected deeply by the pastor's words. Not a movement was made by the big crowd, which filled the building to the doors, while Brown, from the pulpit, strove to save others from the vice that hud proved too strong for him. It is believed the preacher fears his weakness too much to follow his calling further, but it is said the church officers will urge him to keep his pulpit, in the hope that one who has suffered as he undoubtedly has done will be the stronger for his open confession and the better able to lestraln any tendency to gambling that may exist among those in bis charge. BOY COCAINE USIrlRS OIN THE INCREASE Boston, Mass. An anti-cocaine bill prepared by Dr. Charles Harrington, of the State Board of Health, has been brought before the legislative Committee on Public Health by that official, who made a strong appeal in its advocacy. He declared that hundreds upon hundreds of Boston boys are slaves to the cocaine habit, that the harmful drug onn be purchased in saloons, I from cheap drug stores and on the I street from illegal agents as freely as I one can buy fruit from street hawk 1 ers, and that the juvenile courts are I lllllug up with youths who have ad I milled that' their downfall can be J traced to the vicious drug habit. Said Dr. Harrington In part: "From I Judges, from lawyers, from probation officers and others, I have received hundreds of pitiful letters giving me lists of nanus of Boston boyB who have become slaves to cocaine. "I have heard of saloons where they keep catarrh powder filled with cocaine or its by-products in the toilet rooms for the useof customers. Cheap West end drug stores sell scores of boxes of cocaine a day illegally. The negro race is especially addicted to the drug, and it can be purchased by them in stores and on the streets. "One of the agents of the Health Board purchased some of this drug at a drug store in Boston, then stood by and saw twenty sales of the same within a half hour, all the purchas ers being negroes." Dr. Harrington said that children were supplied with the drug by agents who went about the streets with their pockets stocked with the powders.

Land of Co'd Where Solomon and David Cot Riches It In South ern Africa. Dr. Carl Teters, so well Itnown In connection with the opening up of Africa, has started on a lecturing tour in Oermnny with two objects in view first, to win recruits to tho rauee of German expansion In the Dark Continent; second, to prove that he has found tho famous gold land of Ophlr. The reader who has forgotten where the word "Ophlr" occurs will find It In the Biblical JmokB of Klnr and Chronicles. One 'thousand years before Christ Kins David and tho wise Solomon, his son, sent to Ophlr ships which brought back from thence gold nnd precious stones, Ivory and valuable timber, which these mnnlfl cent rulers employed In building their gorgeous temples nnd palaivs. Peters bosnn to think of this sub Ject after he had discovered an old Flemish map of tho eighteenth cen tury on which he saw the word "Opliir" printed across one of tho least known districts of Southern Centrnl Africa. The fir?t thing that struck him was the similarity of t':? namca Africa and Ophlr. There wr.s first the Arable word Aflr (Ophlr) which when Latinized became Afpr. It was an easy transition from Afer to Africa. He thought further end deeper and hegnn to read Christian tradition. All pointed to South Africa. The ancient literature he read made Peters also acquainted with the fact that at all ages since Solo mon's time Opliir had been roiifjht in numerous pnrts of the world in Arabia, Persia, Mesopotamia. India; It had even been sought In America, and there are ancient Spanish records which state that among the early ron qulsladores of Peru nnd Mexico wore not a few who believed that thoy had found not only El Dorado but Ophlr as well. Suddenly it occurred to Peters that the famous gold land must be In tho neighborhood of Slmbnbje In Southeast Africa. It was a:i inspira tion. He was attacked for this belief, and theologians nnd others with a different theory cast on him the re proach that he was not a Semitic scholnr. But he maintained that he was right. The ships of Solomon, he said, passed through the Red Son and skirted the coast of Africa until they arrived at their port. And they cer tainly must have brought hack mil lions In gold. It might not have been enough to satisfy the maw of America In the present crisis, but for those re mote days it must have been extraor dinary. Only Africa could have produced that quantity of gold. Arabia r.nd India have never produced gold in re markable quantities. In his description of the Zambesi territory Peters says he has seen In numerable traces which compel htm to believe that there and nowhere else was the land of Ophlr. Forsaken mines by the score are there, and no less than 75,000 places where gold has been dug at depths of from thirty to forty feet. Ruins of towns and vil lages, remains of temples and palaces speak eloquently of the past glories of the region. They point, moreover, to Phoeni cian origin. Mighty terraces and towers raised by the hand of man are still traceable. These builders were certainly of a race superior to the negro. One still flndB in the graves remnan; of things which point to the worship of Baal. But Peters' weightiest argument Is that in the Septuaglnt translation of the Bible Ophlr Is called Sofala. and the Arabs to the present day call the Zambesi district indifferently Sofala and "the land of gold."
