MURDEROUS FANATICISM.
What is to be done . about it
-when people become fanatical on
the subject of Christian science
and refuse to allow the adminis
tration of remedies placed in the
world as a means of relief of the
suffering aiid helpless? Mur
derous religious fanaticism would
.?oem not an inappropriate name
for it.
A case in point is that of Hen
ry Parsons, a boy of 11 years,
vwb,o died in New Bern on the
;6th. Ho had malarial fever,
-'which is quite curable, but he
lay under the treatment of a
Christian Scientist without med
ical aid for two weeks and died.
A jury df inquest was held over
.him and its findings were that he
suffered from improper treat
ment and neglect and that he
would most probably have re
covered if he had had proper
.treatment. The grand jury will
be called upon to consider the
case.
Any punishment that the
courts may inflict will raise a
howl, of religious persecution
.j,nd it is most probable that this
fact will largely restrain to some
extent the action of the courts.
Life-saving crews, fire-fighters
detectives and others go to
wonderful extents to save human
fife, and we prosecute andsu,e
capftalists for great sums of
money if any evil befalls an em
jploye through a little neglect for
tie safety of all about them,but
in the name of religiqifall kinds
of wrtmg against humanity, even
to the loss orllfe. mav he uracil
- " t l
' ed ancf we areloath to vindi
cate human suffering an!death
lest we be violating tje princi
ples of religious freedom.
There is a mystical line be
tween religious freedom and
. abuse that it were well enough
to scrutinize that the former
may be maintained and the latter
-suppressed.
Mr. Bryan's Defeiife of North Carolina.
In the course of an a?sresi n
Chicago Mr. BryaiT commented
upon theadmiistration's co$re
in the Philippines, vhich permits
one class to juje another, where
upon one of his auditors, inter
rupting him, .asked :
. "How aboufr. the. situation in
North Carolina ?".
Mr. Bryan instantly replied ;
"Let the race question, which
.has brought us so much trouble,
be a warning to you not to bt ing
another race question into thjs
country; and we dp not have to
go to North Carolina either, for
we have had it right here in Illi
nois and Ohio."
Gbamberlain's Cough Remedy a Great
Favorite.
The soothing and bealmg properties
or this remedy, its pleasant taste and
prompt and permanent cures have made
it a great favorite with people every.
where It is especially prized by
mothers of small children for Golds,
croup and whooping cough as it always
affords quick relief, and as it contains
no opium or other harmful drug, it may
be given as confidently to a baby as to
an adult. For sale at Marsh's drug
store.
Awful Massacre at Pao Ting Fn.
A London dispatch of the 12th
tells a tale of horror h China.
It says
"The censorship, which is un
der Sir Alfred Gaselee's control,
makes it difficult," says the cor
respondent, "to convey a true
picture of the present situation
in Pekin. Today the foreign
community was thrilled with hor
ror at the news of the massacre
of the missionaries at Pao Ting
Fu; who were under the protec
tion of tile imperial troops. Chil
dren were butchered before the
eyes of their parents. White
women were ravished and carried
into captivity. Parents were
tortured and murdered. Massa
cres by red Indians never caiLin
vain for vengeance. ' Yet the
troops remain here inactive.
Their one thought and wish are.
to be given work, or to be re
called from Pekin. 'Surely the
civilized world will not suffer
this cruel massacre to remain
unavenged and make no effort to
ascertain .the fate of the poor
martyred Christians and whit
women.
Minister Wu, however, stoutly
denies the facts and calls Dr.
Morrison's report 'unjustifiable
libel."
It seems certain that Mr. Co
ler, who is Mr. Hill's candidate
for the nomination for governor,
will be beaten, and Stanchfield
who is lr. Croker's choice will
win.
During last May an infant child of
our neighbor was suflering from cholera
infantum. The doctors had giyen up
all hopes of recovery. I took a bottle
of Chamberloin's Colio, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy to the house telling
them E felt sure it would do good if
used according to directions. In two
days time the child had ftflly re
covered. The child is now vigorous
and healthy. I have recommended this
remedy "frequently and have never
known it to fail. Mrs. Curtis Baker,
Bookwalter, Ohio. For sale at Marsh's
