Buunswick, Ga., Oct. 14. — The
weather is cool, with a northwest wind.
Tho thermometer in the early morning
stood lit 03 degrees.
This is very low for tills season in
Brunswick, and will tend to increase tho
deaths and the number of new cases.
Mr. Burr Winter, one of tho commis
sary clerks, wns sent homo witli the
fever.
A telegram from Agent C. W. Floyd,
of the Brunswick and Western railroad,
says that four carloads of provisions
from Now York will arrive at 8 p. in.,
and one car will iinivo tomorrow at 1:53
p. m.
attended a social gathering at tho Taylor
cottage. Among tho guests was a jus
tice of tho poaco named Haskins, who
ns recently authorized to perform tho
marriage ceremony. During tho evening
tho conversation turned upon the now
duties of Justice Haskins, and some one
suggested that ho try his baud iu tying
the nuptial knot.
Miss Clarke and Dr. Taylor agreed to
play the parts of bride and bridegroom,
and Justice Haskins, after nsking the
usual questions, which were properly
answered, pronounced the couple mail
and wife.
Tlie affair was looked on as a more in
cident of tho evening’s entertainment,
but it is now learned that it was in all
respects a perfectly valid marriage un
der tlie laws of Virginia.
The situation is further complicated
by the fact, as alleged, that Miss Clark
is engaged to be married to another, and
that the itlfair will have to be postponed
until after sito can bo divorced from Dr.
Taylor.
Jacksonville, Fla., Oct. 12.—W. H.
Baker, county judge, applied to R. M.
Call, circuit court judge, to have somo
lunatics committed to tho insane nsy
lum, and proof being sufficient, it was
hi ordered. One of tlie unfortunates
is a strango young white man, found
wandering abmit the woods in the vicin
ity of Baldwin last week. Ho gave as
his name Walter M. Betbune and says
bis father resides in Talbot county, Ga.,
and is a lawyer and well-to-do. About
year ago Bethuno Hays he killed his
brother ( Alfred F. Bethune, and then
left home and has been going from place
to place ever since. Deputy Sheriff Ed

of educational advantages and good
breeding.

of utter decomposition, lying on tho
lloor, half clad in ragged clothes, with

Tito clxief of polico and coroner were
notified, and an investigation revealed

Nashville, Oet, 14.—Lafayette Dick
inson, night watchman at Steagall
Carson's lumber mills, Tullahomn, wns
found dead with a three-inch fracture in
the skull, but tlie skin was not broken
He may have fallen from the second
story of the mill, but the evidence, slight
at best, rather indicates that he was
murdered. The whole matter is shroud-
oil in mystery.
New Orleans, Oct. 14.—The governor
will make an attempt to prevent pugil
ists training at Bay St. Louis hereafter
or, for that matter, in any part of tho
stato. It is almost certain that the law
relating to tho charters of athlotic clubs
will bo changed by the Louisiana legis
lature this winter, which will make New
Orleans a bail city in which to hold
prize fight.

Comments of tho CnglUh Pro
run I-iOgiHlittlon*
London, Oct. 10.—Tho Times, com
menting on tlie action of the opposition
in the United States senate to prevent
the repeal of the silver bill by a resort to
continuous sessions, says:
Tho determining of an economic
question by an appeal to physical oiulnr-
anco is little removed from tho mediae
val ordeal of battle; yet this old world
remedy is being applied in the center of
tho most essentially modern form of
government."
The Standard says: “Tho silver par
ty’s tnctics aro not very democratic.
They would have very hard names
plied to thorn hero.”
The Daily Telegraph characterizes the
proceedings as reducing legislation to an
absurd stalemato.
Tho Daily Chronicle says: "Thospoc-
tacle is ludicrous uuil contemptible. If
physical endurance is to bo tlie legisla
tive court of appeal, communities must
hasten to get themselves represented by
athletes.”

Chicago, Oct. 10.—For two months
the World's Fair directors have said the

will be reopened Nov. t. Tho exhibit
ors are preparing to leave Nov. 1, but
tho work of breaking up will lust three
months. President Higinbotlmm favors
keeping the buildings standing for two
years.

I balance of $1,028,008 in the treasury.
Unionism Losing Ground In Iron Mills.
Cleveland, Oct. 10.—Tho Iron Trade
Review says: Iron mills in operation aro
skirmishing as hard us ever for orders
and with many it is a toss up between
shutting down again and keeping ma
chinery going. A few more mills in tho
Pittsburg district have resumed with a
puddling rate of $4, illustrating the
weakening hold of unionism upon the
mills. This leads tlie Valley and other
outside mills to hesitate about signing
the Amalgamated scale. Somo ot tlie
scattering union mills find themselves
underbid by non-union establishments,
Contracts by agricultural and other es
tablishments for mill products ure unu
sually late. Eastern mills report some
small orders.
They Hold on to Weeks.
San JObis, Costa Kica, Oct. 1G.—It is
officially denied that the Costa Rican
government ever made a positive prom
ise to surrender Weeks, the alloged
American embezzler. It is explained
that a promise was made that when tlie

satisfactory Weeks would be given up.
It is stated that this government will
impose conditions upon tho United States
in tlie matter of extradition before sur
rendering Weeks.

HELPFUL CHI HUMES.
ELOQUENT SERMON BY THE GREAT
BROOKLYN PREACHER.
A Reply to the Query, "Wlutt. In the
Chtirel»? H —It RltouUl He n Great, Prac
tical, Homely, Omnipotent Help—The
HunIucsh of Worship,
Brooklyn, Oct. 15.—The character of
tho hymns given out by Rev. Dr. Tal-
ningo in the Brooklyn Tabernacle this
forenoon called for tho unusual power
of congregational singing. Organ and
cornet and tho voices of the thousands
of worshipers lr.ado tho place resound
with music. Tho subject was "Helpful
Churches,” tlie text being Psalms xx, 2,
“Send thoe help from tho sanctuary.’’
If you should ask 60 men what tho
church is, they would givo you 60 differ
ent answers. Oneninn would say, “It is a
convention of hypocrites." Another, "It
is nn assembly of people who feel them
selves a great deal better tlinn others,'
Another, ’’’It is a place for gossip, where
wolverine dispositions devour each oth-
Another, “It is a place for tho cul
tivation of superstition and cant.” An
other, “It is an arsenal whero theologians
go to got, pikes and muskets and shot."
Another, “It is nn art gallery, where men
go to ndmirq^rand arches, and exquisite
fresco, and musical warble, anil the
Dnntesquo in gloomy imagery." An
other man would say: "It is tho best
place on earth except my own home. If
I forget thee, O Jerusalem! let my right
hand forget her cunning."
Now, my friends, whatever the church
is, my text tells you what it ought to bo
—a great, practical, homely, omnipotent
help. "Bend tlioo help from tho sanctu
ary." The pew ought to yield rcstfulness
to tho body. Tho color of tho upholstery
ought to yield pleasure to tho eye. Tho
entire service ought to yield strength for
tho moil and struggle of everyday life,
The Sabbath ought to bo harnessed to
all tho six days of tho week, drawing
them in tho right direction. The
church ought to bo a magnet, visibly
anil mightily affecting all tho homes of
the worshipers. Every man gets roughly
jostled, gets abused, gets cut, gets in
suited, gets slighted, gets exasperated.
By the time tho Sabbath comes ho has
nn accumulation of six days of annoy
ance, and that is a starveling church
service which lias not strength enough
to tako tlmt accumulated nnnoynneo and
hnrl it into perdition. Tho businessman
sits down in church headaclioy from tbo
week's engagements. Perhaps lie wishes
ho had tarried at homo on tho loungo
with tho newspapers and tho slippers,
That man wants to be cooled off and
graciously diverted. Tho first wave of

over tho hurricane decks and leave him
dripping with holy and glad alnl heav

the sanctuary.”
BABRATn SONGS.
In tho first place, sanctuary help ought
to como from tho music. A woman dy
ing in England persisted in singing to (
tho last moment. Tho attendants tried
to persuado her to stop, saying it would
exhaust her and mako her disease worse.
She answered: “I must sing. I am only
practicing for the heavenly choir." Mu
sic on earth is a rehearsal for music in
heaven. If you and I are going to tako
part in that groat orchestra, it i.s high
tiino that we wero stringing and thrum
ming our harps. They tel! v.s that Tlml-
berg andGottsclialk never would go into
a concert until they had first, in private
rehearsed, although they were such mas
tors of tho instrument. And can it be
that we expect to tuke a part in the groat
oratorio of heaven if wo do not rehearse
here? But I am not speaking of the next
world. Sabbath song ought to set all tho
wook to music. Wo want not moro har
mony, not moro artistic expression, but
more volume in our church music.
Now I am no worshiper of noise, but
I believe that if our American churches
would, with full heartiness of soul and
full emphasis of voice, sing the tftmgs of
Zion this part of sacred worship would
have tenfold moro power than it has
now. Why not take this part of the sa
cred service and lift it to where it' ought
to be? All the annoyances of life might
be drowned out of that sacred song. Do
you tell mo that it is not fashionable to
sing very loudly? Then, I say, away
with tho fashion. Wo dam buck tho
great Mississippi of congregational sing
ing aud lot a few drops of melody trickle
through tho dam. I say, tako away tho
dam anil let tho billows roar on thc-ir
way to tho occanio heart of God.
Whether it is fasliionablo to sing loudly
or not, let us sing with all possiblo em
phasis.
Wo hear a groat deal of tho art of
singing, of music as nn entertainment,
of music as a recreation. It is high timo
we heard something of music as a help—
a practical help. In order to ilo this wo
must only liavo a fow hymns. New
tunes and new hymns every Sunday
mako poor congregational singing. Fifty
hymns are enough for 50 years. Tho
Episcopal church prays tho same pray
ers every Sabbath, and year after year
and century after century. For that
reason they liavo the hearty responses.
Let us tako a hint from that fact, and
let us sing the same songs Sabbath after
Sabbath. Only in that way can wo come
to tho full force of this exercise. Twen
ty thousand years will not wear out the
hymns of William Cowper aud Charles
Wesley and Isuac Watts.
Suppose now each person in this au-
dienpo has brought all tlie annoyances
of the last 305 days. Fill this room to
tho ceiling with sacred song, and you
would drown out all those annoyances
of tho 300 days, and you would drown
them out forever. Organ and cornet
are only to marshal the voico. Let the
voice fall into line, and in companies,
and in brigades, by storm take tho ob
duracy and sin of the world. If you
cannot sing for yourself, sing for others.
