NELLIE GRANT WEDS AGAIN ~|
much so that her father-in-law's sympathy was aroused In her behalf and he
made earnest efforts to effect a restoration of good feeling between husband
and wife. Failing in this, he gave her a small London house in Cadogan place,
forced his son to give her a country home near Hampton and settled a hand
some Income upon her. Upon his death, in 1890, he left her the town house
in which she had lived after her separation from her husband and also set
tled upon her $35,000 a year.
Three years after the death of the elder Sartoris her husband died and
Mrs. Sartorirs received the principal of his income, as guardian of her chil
dren, and the lease of the country house.
BIDDLE’S UNIQUE METHODS
It is a far cry from prize fighting
to religion. At first blush it seems
most sacrilegious to associate the two
subjects. But it has been done suc
cessfully not only in words but in
deeds, and, as results have proven,
it is the basis of one of the most re
markable religious movements this
country has ever seen.
The man back of this novel idea
for furthering the cause of Christian
ity is Anthony J. Drexel Biddle, mil
lionaire, of Philadelphia, Pa., who but
a few years back became famous as
an amateur boxer and an object of
criticism and source of disgust to the
ultra-exclusive set of the Quaker City
of which he is a member. But withal,
"Tony” Biddle proved himself a prac
tical pugilist—one who loved the man
ly art only for the manliness which it
brought out; one who stood for hon
esty and high Ideals and who was ever
a gentleman.
When Mr. Biddle conceived the
Idea of his Bible class movement, his secret motive —If such it may be called—
was to IntroduceKithletiCß as an Inducement to young men, and when he took
charge of his first class In the Sunday school of Holy Trinity Protestant Epis
copal church, Philadelphia, four years ago, he had but three members, and
the attendance of the school was very slim at the time.
So rapidly has the Drexel Biddle Bible class grown that it now numbers
700 members, and It is the ambition of the originator to make it of national
scope. '
MARSHALL NEW IN POLITICS
spent his entire fifty-eight years in his native state. He was graduated from
Wabash college In 1873, when he was twenty-one years old. He practiced law
In Columbia City, Ind., until he was elected governor two years ago. He is a
member of many clubs and holds LL.D. degrees from Wabash, Notre Dame
and the University of Pennsylvania. He married Miss Lois I. Kimsey of An
gola, Ind., In 1885.
In the Literary State they call Marshall the “Little Giant. When one
sees him for the first time he wonders why, because there is nothing colc«jsal
about the slender, undersized man with sloping shoulders and quiet mien. His
hair and mustache turning from gray to white, do not bristle, his brows do
not “beetle" so one can notice it and even his violet-blue eyes are mild. It
is only when one knows him and his political history that that "Little Giant”
term is understood.
!l HILL’S REMARKABLE CAREER |
The retirement of James J. Hill
from his position as chairman of the
board of directors of the Great Nor
thern railroad, which has just become
effective, was officially announced
Monday from the office of the com
pany at SL PauL
The resignation of Mr. Hill was
presented to the board of directors
June 7, and unofficial reports of the
changes were made at the time, but
the statement with which Mr. Hill ac
companies his resignation was made
public only a few days ago.
Louis W. Hill, who was recently
succeeded by Carl R. Gray as presi
dent of the Great Northern, succeeds
his father as chairman of the board
of directors. James J. Hill will re
main a member of the executive com
mittee of the board.
With his retirement Mr. Hill com
pleted thirty-three years of active
service in the northwest, beginning
with his purchase of an interest in the
SL Paul and Pacific, of which he was made general manager, to the time of
his resignation from the office which he has held for five years, since he re
signed the presidency of the Great Northern road.
James J. Hill rose from a job as a day laborer to the presidency of the
Great Northern railroad. He was cut out for the pulpit, dreamed in his youth
of war and literature, and when a man turned his tremendous energies to th*
massing of money. He was born in Guelph, Ont. in 1838.
The marriage recently of Mrs.
( Nellie Grant Sartoris to Frank H.
Jones, a Chicago banker, was In sharp
contrast to her first marriage, 38 years
ago, to Algernon J. Sartoris, an Eng
lish army officer.
Nellie Grant was then the idol of
the nation and her marriage took
place in the east room of the White
House while her distinguished father
was president. It was one of the
greatest social events the White
House had seen up to that time, or
perhaps since. Simple, amiable and
unaffected, Nellie Grant, the only
daughter of General Grant, had en
deared herself to the American people
and she went with her husband to
their English home accompanied by
the heartiest good wishes.
In England she was presented to
Queen Victoria and dined at Windsor
Castle. Yet her life in England prov
ed most unhappy. Her husband treat
ed her with Injustice and cruelty, so
Gov. Thomas R. Marshall of In
diana, the Democratic nominee for
vice-president, rode to the front of his
party on a wave of reform. But the
Indiana wave was not so boisterous as
those that broke on the New Jersey
coast and elsewhere. Governor Mar
shall believes in reform—in modera
tion. Also he believes in progressing
—with moderation. He does not be
lieve that this great and glorious com
monwealth is going to the “demnltion
bow-wows;’’ in fact, he points with
pride to his belief that the country is
just a little bit better politically,
financially and morally than ever be
fore.
It required heroic measures on the
part of his friends to Induce Governor
Marshall to take his presidential
chances seriously, and even then he
refused to allow any effort to be made
in his behalf outside of Indiana.
Governor Marshall was born In
Manchester, Ind., In 1854 and has

Making a Holy Man
or Salvation from
the Subjective Side
By Rev. James M. Gray, D. D.,
Dean of Moody Bible Institute, Chicago
TEXT—For they that are after the flesh
do mind the things of the flesh; but they
that are after the Spirit the things of the
Spirit.—Romans 8:6.
There are several things which God
does for the Christian believer In an
objective sense,
that is, in the
sense that they
proceed from him
self without be
in g necessarily
known to or expe
rienced in the be
liever’s life. In
other words, he
reconciles him, he
saves him, he jus
tifies him, he
blesses him with
all spiritual bless
ings in Christ
Jesus. These
things all speak
of the believer’s
state or position before God, and con
stitute what might be called his legal
standing.
In this sermon, however, we are to
think about what God graciously does
to transmute this legal standing of
the believer before him into the actual
experience and conduct of the believ
er himself. This is what we mean by
"salvation from the subjective side.”'
If the other things touch on Christ’s
work "for” us, these relate to Christ’s
work “in” us, on the supposition that
we have received him as our Savior,
and confessed him as our Lord.
In other words, he, through the Holy
Spirit, does several things which go
to make the true believer a holy man,
and which are enumerated In this
eighth chapter of Paul’s letter to the
Romans; for although our text Is lim
ited to but one verse, we intend to
speak of more than one.
In the first place, the Holy Spirit
sets the believer free from the law
of sin and death, verses 2 to 4.
Prior to his regeneration through
faith in Christ, the believer was un
der the power of a tendency or law
in the direction of Bin, the outcome
of which was death, eternal death; ।
but the incoming of tht Holy Spirit to
him means that a new tendency or law
> has been set up within him whose di
' rection is just the opposite to this.
‘ In the second place, the Holy Spirit ,
gives him the spiritual “mind” or dis
position to obey and follow out this
■ tendency in the direction of holiness
and eternal life —verses 5-10.
In the third place, he not only gives
him the spiritual mind, but goes far
ther and gives the spiritual power to
. exercise that mind, verses 11-13, so
- that the Christian has no excuse for
I committing sin.
i A Life of Victory.
i The New Testament does not teach
■ a doctrine of sinless perfection, or the
• eradication of evil from our hearts,
• as long as we remain in the flesh, but
; It does teach that there is such a-'
• thing as living a life of victory over
. every known sin every day. Chris
i tians have no juustiflcation for apol
i ogizing for quick tempers and irritable
i speeches and envy and jealousy—not
, to speak of grosser sins of the flesh —
■ on the ground that such things are
part of their temperament and can’t
i be helped. It is true that they can’t
• help them so far as their old nature
[ is concerned, but the very purpose of
> the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit is
• to enable them to live a supernatural
life of power over them if they yield
; their wills to him.
. In the fourth place, the Holy Spirit
gives the believer spiritual encourage-
■ ment to exercise this power, for he
. bears witness within him to his Son
। ship to God and heirship as well
• through Jesus Christ —verses 14-17.
What stronger motive could there be ;
■ to stir a. man to put away sin and
live a holy life comparable to the
apprehension of the fact that he is
> indeed a child of God and a joint heir
. with Jesus Christ? People of the
' world are inclined to smile at these
things and consider them ethereal and
visionary, because they cannot under
stand them, lacking the spiritual dis
cernment, but these are, after all, the
real things, the substance of life, while
the phenomena that occupy so much
of man’s attention now are only the
shadow of the true.
Change in President Arthur’s Life.
I remember the great change that
came about in the character and in
the outward life of President Chester
A. Arthur. As a New York politician
and collector of the port, he had been
one of the “boys,” the higher and finer
class of “boys,” and yet one of them.
But when a strange providence placed
him in the presidential office after
the murder of President Garfield, what
a change came over him! What a
steady, sedate, wise, successful, honor
able and pure chief magistrate he
made! All speak well of his memory.
The dignity, the exaltation, the priv
ileges which had come to him contrib
uted to make him over. It is much
the same with the Christian who
knows who he is and what he has in
Christ.
Finally, the Holy Spirit gives the be
liever spiritual access unto God in
prayer—verses 26-28. This is the
crowning act of grace and power.
[ You know what a man is when you
know what he loves.

up into walking suits. This rough material is all the vogue now at both sea
shore and mountain resorts.
CLING TO BLACKS AND WHITES
Combination Always Popular Seems to
Show Little Falling Off in
Favor.
In spite of the rage for color which
threatened our peace of eye so seri
ously in the early days of summer, we
remain very faithful to the time-hon
ored combination of black and white.
Amongst the most successful of white
lace dresses destined to adorn Ascot
is one made in tunic style with broad
hems of black ninon, a short, rounded,
black ninon coat hanging in sack style
over this niched with black ribbon
, with a white picot edge, and the whole
is to be crowned with a black hat lined
beneath with white chip with a forest
of black and white ostrich feathers
waving their fronds over the crown;
a parasol of white lace hemmed with
black chiffon will complete the effect.

RATHER STUPID PARIS FANCY
Zebra Rip Could Only Attract the
Gaze Because of the Extreme
Ugliness.
Very odd. indeed, are some of the
new tailor-mades, writes a Paris cor
respondent. In fact, a few of them ir
resistibly suggest that the wearer, de
spairing of finding any new ways of
being beautiful, is as a last resource
falling back on ways of being ugly.
How otherwise could one account
for a coat like an Early Victorian dress
ing jacket, than which nothing more
shapeless has yet been discovered in
the history of costume, made of stone
colored cloth, and suddenly bursting
into an orgy of black and stone-colored
zebra striplngs, just on a level with
the cuffs, which are of the same ar
rangement?
The skirt, up to the bottom edge of
the coat, has also the horizontal strip
ings, so that the general effect is of
a blege jacket standing up in a black
and blege basket.
New Stocking Device.
Women w r ho are afflicted with per

ing the steel hooks at the ends of the
' side and front elastics substitute quar
ter-inch satin ribbons. Fold a piece in
the middle, sew it there to the elastic
itself, leaving the two short ends free.
On each stocking put two or three
loops of silk braid ‘to match in color
and through these tie the ribbons.

Picturesque Tunic Frocks.
Despite the success of taffetas
which had such a run during the
spring, it was inevitable that the soft
clinging materials should sway for
summer, and consequently modes are
becoming somewhat simpler. What
constitutes a pannier in the crisper
silks becomes merely a folded drapery
in silk linen and chiffon.
The favorite fashion of the moment
is the tunic frock, for the tunic is such
a versatile garment that it may be
said to merge into the pannier in some
of its simpler forms. Mousseline de
sole and lace take alternative parts in
the latest Paris frocks to the tunics.

ECONOMY IN THE BEST FEED
Nothing Gained by Purchasing Sup.
plies for the Poultry Because
They Are Called Cheap.
(By A. Q. SYMONDS.)
No matter what food is given the
fowls be sure it is the very best thafc
can be procured. It does not pay to
buy poor grain or poultry food of any
kind. Some people think it is eco
nomical to buy poultry supplies be
; cause they are cheap.
The best is none too good, is a
rule as applicable here as anywhere
। else. Only the very best grains should
( be sanctioned. Only the choicest
brand of beef scraps, fine cut clover,
I alfalfa, and other foods of this sort
I should be used. There is nothing that
will repay one better for good care
I and food given them than a flock of
hens. See to it then that in the mat
ter of foods given them only the best
be procured and only the best be fed.
