Too Old For Work.
Perhaps the most trying, the most
sorrowful, delicate and the most dread
ert duties of the Methodist general
conference at Los Angeles, was per
formed last week in voting to retire
; five of the venerable bishops of the
el urch, Vincent, Walden, Andrews,
M .llutieu and Kose, owing to their
linciipat lty for work due to old age.
Th' se gentlemen have been leading
iigh f s in Methodisn, and have had uc
I -ujenors as logicians, as workers and
st cinch adherenn of Methodism. They
hav ranked as first among the noted
thcolt rians of America, and it must
ccm<? p.a a stunning blow to them tc
be made o feel they have outlived
their c elu'uess and compelled to va
cate for youiigur men. It would have
hau much bitter had they voluntari
ly resigned their bishoprics in ad
vance,and ravud the conference an un
pleasaut duty. As Dr. Buckley said,
in reporting the vote of the confer
ence, " W<) sympathize with the aged
bishops,we 1 jve them from our hearts,
we love the church better than our
selves, and for the interests of the lat
ter we take this action."
It is h tr I to feel that after the great
er part of a long life spent in active
service in any particular line, when
ill the bast in us has been spent, that
we must be aside as an encum
brance and our place filled by a strang
er. Yet such Is life. In these days of
iggrissim an I competition, with the
fields whi - e to the harvest, the great
Methodist church must not tie handi
cap] el. She must have the most, vigor
ous, active, able and wide awake men
of the age at the helui. The confer
enca acted with wisdom, painful
though the task. The venerable bish
ops have done their woik nobly and
ro th) glory of God and their Church,
and thev have the love, sympathy and
gratitude of the Methodist church for
their sacrifices in tier behalf, though
j he action of the conference will no
[ doubt wound the tender hearts of the
old bishop*
TEA CHERS BENEFIT
Bf NEW LAW
Hip public school teachers' minimum
s<il iry law.euactcd by the last legisla
ture, goes into effect on the first of
Joiue next. A thorough canvass of ev
ery county in the state shows that
3,80() school teachers, over nine-tenths
of them women.will receive substant
ial increases in salary during the com
iug term as tli9 result of the operation
of the law. Nearly £7. r )0,000 as addi
tional remuneration will be received
by the teachers during the next term
as the result of these increases. In
nine-tenths of the districts there will
be no increase of taxation on this ac
count.
The law provides that after the first
day of June the minimum salary of
teachers shall be s:!."> per month. It is
made the dury of the president and
secretary of each school district in the
state,under oath to make report to the
Superintendent ot Public Instruction
that the requirements of the law have
been fully complied with. The last
section provides that "every school
district ot this commonwealth, failing
to comply with the requirements of
this act, shall forfeit its state appro
priation for the whole time during
which this act has been violated."
Representative Charles A. Snyder,
of Pottsville the author of the teach
ers' minimum salary law, tells an in
teresting story of the underlying mo
tives which caused him to fight for
the passage of this bill.
His wife, before marriage, was a
public school teacher. When she se
cured a position as teacher she was
paid only §l5O per mouth for a school
which had previously been taught by
a man for $65 per mouth. Mrs. Snyder
was notably successful as a teacher
and the injustice of this aotion was so
manifest that Mr. Snyder declared
that if he ever got the opportunity he
would prevent, as tar as possible,such
discrimination. The redemption ot
this pledge is the teachers' minimum
salary bill, the beneficiaries of which
are almost entirely women
A Oure For Piles.
"I bad a bad case of piles," says G.
F. Carter, of Atlanta, Ga., "and con
sulted a physician who advised me to
try a box of DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve. I purchased a box and was en
tirely cured. It is splendid for piles,
giving relief, instantly, and I heartily
recommend it to all sufferers." De-
Witt's Witch Hazel Salve is unequalled
for its healing qualities. Kczema and
other skin diseases, also sores, cuts,
burns and wounds of every kind are
quickly cared by it. Sold by Paules &
Co., and Gosh & Co.

[INTERESTING LBTTEB
FROM EUOIASW
Rome, Italy, April 30
To the AMERICAN:—L would
have been a real pleasure to me, in
sending my last letter to you, which
was dated at Cairo, Egypt, if I could
have written you at length concern
ing many interesting scenes and ex
periences iu Palestine; but, owing to
the nature of our cruise,and the many
changes our party were compelled to
make, it was only possible for me to
seud the briefest outline of the trip.
After a visit of five days in Cairo,
during which time we visited many
places of interest, wo departed for
Alexandria, and then, by small boats
to our ship, as we were not allowed to
spend auy time in Alexandria, owing
to the fact that the prevalence of the
bubonic plague barred us out.
Cairo has a population of 400,000. It
is a city of great interest in many
ways. The people themselves are in
teresting, and are easily designated by
their distinctive costumes, —the Copts,
with their blue turbans,the blue skir
ed Fellahin, dark-turbaued Berbers,
yellow-tan-faced Jews, Bedouins, Ar
abians, Europeans, etc. The city pos
sesses many oharms for the traveler in
its history,buildings and street scenes.
The hotels are the liuest to be found
anywhere, and the stores are of the
very best and carry a fine assortment
of articles for home use, as well as for
those seeking desirable souvenirs.
The Sphinx aud Pyramids and Mos
ques and Museums were visited and
were really marvellous in their con
struction aud contained many things
that were instructive and interesting.
There are many palaces and magnifi
cent buildings iu Cairo, also beautiful
Btreets and delightful drives through
avenues of date palms, over well-kept
roads. Our party had the pleasure of
several drives through the city and al
so to the country near by, which afford
ed us a splendid opportunity of seeing
the beautiful Nile valley and the coun
try watered by this historic stream.
The farms are of the finest, and art"
kept in good order by a system of ir
rigation. All kinds of fruit and veget
ables were on sale iu the markets aud
grain was being cut and threshed at
the.tiing of our visit.
I will not attempt to describe the
many temples and Mosques of the'
Egyptians which are to be found in
Cairo,nor will I enter into an account
of personal experiences in Egypt as w
enjoyed them from time to time; but
I may say that our stay in this section
was one of the most delightful and we
were loth to leave as we all felt that
there were many more things to see
aud places to visit. Put our time was
fully covered, aud we left with pleas
ant recollections for Naples, the next
point iu oar itinerary. Between Cairo
aud Naples, time on ship board was
spent in a most profitable way iu a
series of meetings and conferences con
cerning Sunday-school work. The ad
dresses aud discussions were most help
ful and stimulating. On our second
day out we experienced a very heavy
sea aud many of the passengers suffer
ed from sea sickness. Before we were
permitted to land at Naples,our entire
company was subjected to the most
rigid examination from the quarantine
officers. It was given out by the Cap
tain of the ship that all soiled cloth
ing must be placed in a pillow slip,
with our name on it.and this was to be
placed outside of our staterooms tor
examination. Iu some cases the ac
cumulations of soiled clothing for the
entire trip hai to be shown, as some
persons did not have any washing done
and intended to take it back home to
be washed. This or.ler occasioned a
great deal of discomfort aud annoy
ance for many of the passengers.
We are anticipating a very pleasant,
as well as busy time Iti Naples and
Rome. If possible I will send you a
letter from there. Should 1 be prevent
ed from doing 80. on account of pres
sure of time, I will be glad to tell of
my experiences when I return.
lam well and enjoying the trip I
send best wishes to all friends at home.
Truly yours,
WM. D. LAUMASTEK.

BADLY BURNED
B* A FLASH
Daniel Gillaspy employed ai• a help
er at a heating furnace in I tie hkelp
mill, Heading Iron Work*, was very
badly burned Friday.
The injured man was employed a*
second helper for Heater Curtis Marks
He stood at the door of the furnace
with a shovelful of ooal in his hand
while the llrst as-istant was drawing
oat a pile of iron. At the very mo
ment the iron was reiunvtd Gillaspy
proceeded to throw in the coal
A heavy flash at that instant shot
out the door filling all the spare in
| front of the furnace. Gillaspy's »**
perience an a lieater taught him wliat
to expect and he threw himself down
upon the ground It was impossible
to wholly escape, however, and his
right arm was caught in the whirl
wind of lire. The member was terri
bly injured, from the shoulder to the
wrist the Mesh in largn sports being
literally roasted. Hut for the man's
presence of mind 111 dropping to the
ground the entire upper part of his
body would have been burned to a
crisp and death would have been eer
tain.
The usu tl reme lies kopt on hand in
the mill were applied and tin* man was
assisted to his home. A visit to the
Gillaspy residence last night found the
injured niau con tin ed to his bed. He
was resting easily, although Ins pain
at an earlier hour had been most in
tense. It will be uiaiiv weeks before
1h will be able to work.
A Hash from the furnace as above is
an accident likely to occur. Workmen
off and on ate injured in this way hut
it seldom happens that oue is so un
fortunate as Daniel Gillaspy was yes
terday.
