From tlie Noiv York World.
There arrived In this city recently,
from San Frnnoisco, two persons who
proclaim their mission to he the utter
demolition of both the Democratic and
Republican parties. They call them-
.selves “political evangelists," and are
the founders of a new semi-political
sect known as the “Army of Heaven
at Hand.” They are known in the
West ns Gens. Stephen Mnybell and
May Maybell, Ills wife.
They first attracted public attention
when, on August 18th last, they de
clared themselves to he man and wife
before a large number of their follow
ers in San Francisco. The marriage
ceremony was unique, ns Gen. Mnybell
united in himself the function of priest
add bridegroom.
Tlie order “Army of Heaven nt
Hand," which its orlginnlors proolaim
is soon to take tlie place of tlie exist
ing political parties, was founded two
years ago by Gen. Mnybell. The work
of enrolling members gained a marked
impetus when the sensatlonnt marri
age of the General and Ills chief aide
was consummated. The order now In
tends to become the great rival of Gen.
Booth nnd the Salvation Army in
gaining recruits among common peo
ple. Like the Salvation Army it lias a
graded military organization.
The platform of tills new organiza-
tion is a combination of politics and
religion.
In an interview which a World re
porter held with Gen. Maybell, the es
sence of his political belief was learn
ed.
“The Republican nnd Dcmocrntio
parties,” said tlie political evangelist,
“must be abolished, Tlie People’s
Party will never succeed on account of
its lack of religion. So it devolves
upon us ns founders of a new political
faith to show in what our reform con
sists.
Most political reformers fail of success
because they carry on a ‘campaign of
education.’ They are always appeal
ing to men’s heads. We appeal to
their hearts.
“The political corruption of tlie
time is responsible for crime and im
morality. If we can get B,000 people
ad enthusiastic in tho work of saving
the nation ns the Salvation Army is in
saving lost souls, we will turn this
government upside down. Religion is
thinking, politics is the doing of the
Lord; the Lord is the people.
“Then we have another principle.
We are advocates of a ‘uo-tax’ theory,
or, in other words ‘land-currency.’
Let the government issue paper money
on land mortgages. Let tlie people
get their money for 2 per cent, on
their mortgages. This tax will pay
f ;overnment expenses, and tariffs and
evieB of all kinds are then done away
With. That principle would give poor
people an opportunity to borrow
money at low interest, and in time
come to own their own hoUBes.
“The Democratic party appeals to
the common people of tlie country
more strongly than tlie Republican,
because it is the party of heart. But
it has not enough religion in it and we
are going to improve upon It.”
Mot less interesting is the new re
ligious faith adopted as a “Divine Rev
elation,” by Gen. Maybell and bis fol
lowers. Here are some of its peculiar
ities, as given by the “General:’’
“There is no woman in former poll
tics or religious beliefs, bot you can
not have love without the idea of
woman in it. Hence we have adopted
a new trinity as our faith. ‘Glory Be
to Fatherhood,’ that is Wisdom.
‘Glory Be to Motherhood,’ that is
‘Love.’ ‘Glory Be to the People;’ that
is the ‘Children,’ ‘God in thi
sons, ‘Blessed Trinity.’
“That is our creed, and we are
going to oause the greatest oommotion
this otty has seen in years. Some
people think wo are Socialists, anar
chists, free-loversand kindred of other
powers of evil. We are not. True we
perform our own marriages and con
sider them binding upon the contract
ing parties for time and for eternity.”
“Do you consider these marriages
legal?” asked the reporter.
“Oh, yes; as muoh so as any others.”
“Were you ever ordained a minister
or priest?”
“Oh, yes. I ordained myself and
performed my own marriage. I had
to do it. Mrs. Maybell and myself
were the founders of this new faith.
There was no one to ordain us. I was
appointed by Diving command ‘poet,
priest and politician.’ ”
Gen. Maybell, before his connection
with the “Army of Heaven at Hand,"
had gained a certain notoriety in
AFestern politics. In 1880 he was a
People’s Party candidate for Congress
in San Francisco. He says that he
served in the California Legislature.
He is the author of two works on poli
tical economy, and has a srles of re-

Mrs.Maybell is leader of the meetings
and is a great favorite among those of
her faith. A large number of con
verts will shortly come on from San
Francisco, toaid in the work in this
city.
Irish-Amehicaks say tijat Mr.

From Wednesday’* Kvkninii Hkiiaui.
John Watson, is the name of a way
ward son of Ham whose having gone
astray will give him a deal of trouble
before lie can once more call himself a
free man, qjid walk the highways of
the country without a blue-coated es
cort.
I11 short, Watson Is accused of being
a horse thief, (lid the indications seem
to point very aA-opgly to his convic
tion when his case comes before a
jury. He was arrested this morning
about 9 o’clock by Acting Deputy
Sheriff Frank Godwin and Bailiff
Gasoil Smith, in his wife’s house in
tlie northern portion of tho olty.
Several days ago Borne one stoic a
horse from George Wade, of tills
city, mid got away before he oould bo
apprehended. Wade had . enough
evidence, however, to make him feel
reasonably sure that Watson was the
guilty party, nnd the ofllaers have
been on the watch for him for some
time past.
When lie left Albany, the thief
drove over to Bronwood, where he
swapped the horse for n mule. His
scheme certniniy wasn’t a money-inak-
ing one, for he sold tlie mule to a Mr.
Kennedy, of Bronwood, for two dol
lars and a half. He reached Albany
Inst night, but was quickly made to
exchange the comforts of his home for
those of the county jail.
When arrested the ollioors had to
pull him out of n closet, where he had
concealed himself.
It seems that there is n dear case
against Watson, and he will be pretty
apt to serve his term.
Officers Barron nnd Raley nrrested
Will GUIs, colored, this morning about
half past 4, and lie Is in durnneo vile
for turkey stealing. Ho wus an ac-
oomplloe of another Negro who sold a
turkey to Mr. L. 8. Plonsky last week.
Mr. Plonsky had tlie other darkey nr
rested, but Ellis escaped.
Jde Jackson was brought in from
Mr. Tom Pinson’s place, near Acree,
last night, turned over to the officers,
and a warrant sworn out charging
him with carrying concealed weapons.
It seems thnt he got iqto a difficulty,
nnd was so rash as to pull his gun,
with the above stated result.
An Alternative*
From Tuesday's Kvkninii HintAi.n.
Uncle John Drinkwater was repair
ing the cement pavement on the North
side of Broad street this morning.
Immediately in front of the Western
Union Telegraph office he had blocked
out a big squnre nnd filled it in with
fresh soft cement. The cut extended
nearly across the pavement, but there
was room to walk around it nt one
end, or a person could step over it by
making a good long stride.
A Heuald scribe came along, nnd
was stopped by Manager Bud Rust,
who stood in tile door talking with
Mr. Drinkwater.
Addressing the scribe, Mr. Rust
said : “Uncle John has authorized me
to kill the llrst mail that steps in that
place,” (pointing to the fresh laid ce
ment,) “and I want you to bear wit
ness to the fact.”
“Yes, sir, and lie’s got to do it,” said
Uncle John.
Just then a lady came along.
She looked at the broad stride ahead
of her across the fresh laid, soft ce
ment. She hesitated, but looked nei
ther to the right nor to the left in
search of a way around it. Uncle
John, Bud Rust and ye scribe ex
changed glances and stood with sealed
Ups and bated breath. The agony was
soon over. The lady had made up her
mind what to do, and, slightly lifting
her skirt, gently nnd gracefully, yet
firmly and safely, strided the, muddy
chasm.
As soon as she passed out of earshot
Bud Rust broke the silence with—
“Weil, now, what should I have done
in case she bad stepped in it?”
Uncle John scratched bis head and
drolly replied:
“Never blacked yourshoes no more!’’
And Bud felt like he had had a nar
row escape.

The Mallary Baptist Association

NEW GLOVES AllE GAY*
Gloves show daring transgressions of
conventional ideas. Gauntlet gloves
are brought out in visiting tints nnd
ornnmentlngs, nnd the derby glove,
lap-stitched and with the regulation
Idg buttons, Is to be seen in the most
delicate shades. Think of it—a derby
glove in pale blue, pink, eto!
Some of the gauntlets are tremen
dous all'airs, the very largest gauntlets
ever shown, while others are tiny
tilings, just pointed culfs. The fancy
gauntlets arc in white nnd all the light
similes, ami are embroidered elabor
ately with oojored silks nnd small
beads.
GLOVES WITH CUFFS.
A new glove feature is the cuff,
wliloh is not n gunntlut, but a straight
cuff, made by pipings of contrasting
color—white on dark tints, dark on
light. Sometimes the ouff is double,
and one style hns diagonal slashings
on the lower cuff, showing n contrast
ing kid beneath. Another idea is to
have the big buttons to match tlie
gloves in color. Purple-pink derbies
have buttons of tho snme tint.
A faint green, scarcely more than a
green white, is an exquisite shade in
lliose queer gloves, and there are
bright yellow and glaring Mophisto
red gloves to match the Mophisto
veils, fans, handkerchiefs, hose, slip
pers, crepes, silks and pooketbooks.

An ugly glove has a broad gore of

colors, set in for the buttons and but

WAGS OUTWITTED BY A nOSTON 11I1IDE
AND GHOOM.
Tills is from the Boston Herald; A
“terribly pretty” llostoD bride, as
Harvard called her, found, when she,
with the happy groom, was about to
depart on the honeymoon, that some
wag had decked; the oarriage with
wedding favors, and it was literally a
mass of white ribhons.and hydrangea
blooms. It was a trying moment!
The rioe fell thick and fast and merry
shouts of laughter greeted the depart
ing couple, who wero thus compelled
to set off like a package of their own
wedding cake. History has it, how
ever, that the nimble pair jumped into
a second carriage at tlie next street
corner, and so outwitted the “best
man" and ills frolicsome coadjutors.
DRESSING THE NECK.
Tills is from Good Form:
The exponents of high nrt in drcBS
condemn the high, stiff oollar, which
they say robs the neck of perfect free
dora of motion, destroying the natural
expression and grace. The neck is to
tlie head what the stem is to the flower.
They consider even an unbcuutlfu!
neck freed better than tlie stiffly-,
bridled carriage, which is the product
of tlie tailor collar.
“Tlie soft frill of laoe,” that has en
circled the throats‘of heroines in En
glish novels sinoe the beginning, is
reinstated for the msthetlc maiden,
while the tailor-made girl will still
cling to her “ohokers,” Princess of
Wales “dog-collars,” etc.

HOW
A CANINE EXPRESSES PLEAS
URE OR HUMILIATION.
The Imirortnnt Part That tlie Tull nt a
HuntlnE Dog Play* In the Chase—All'
Hup Seem to Wng Their Telle When
Pleased—Why Doge Wng Their Tnlle.
There arc many reasons for tho tail
being tho chiof orgnn of expression
among dogs. They have hut littlo facial
expression beyond the lifting of the lip
to show the teeth nnd the dilation of the
pupil of the eye when angry. Tho jaws
and the contiguous parts nro too much
specialized for the sorious business of
seizing proy to be fitted for such pur
poses ns they arc in man. With dogs
which hunt by scent tlie bend is neces
sarily carried low, and is therefore not
plainly visible except to those close by.
But in tlie case of nil limiting dogs, such
as foxliouuds or wolves which puck to
gether, the tail is carried aloft and is
very free in movement. It is also fre
quently rendered moro conspicuous by
the tip being white, and tbiB is almost
invariably the caso when the hounds aro
of mixed color. -
When ranging the long grass of tho
prairie or jmiglo, tho raised tips of the
tails would often bo all that an individ
ual member of the band would soe of his
fellows. There is no doubt that hounds
habitually watch the tails of those in
front of them when drawing n covert.
If a faint drag is detected suggestivo of
tho presence of a fox, hut scarcely suffi
cient to be sworn to vocally, tho tail of
tho finder is at once set in motion, und
the warmer tlie scent tho quicker docs it
wag. Others seeing the signal instantly’
join the first, and there is 1111 assemblage
of waving tails before over tlie least
whimper is hoard.
Should tho drag provo a doubtful one
the hounds separate ngain and tlio wav
ing ceases; hut if it grows stronger when
followed up tho wagging becomes moro
and more emphatic until 0110 after an
other the hounds begin to whine nnd
give tongne, and stream off in Indian
filo along the lino of Bcont.
Tho whole question of tail wagging is
a very interesting 0110. All dogs wag
their tails when pleased, and the move
ment is generally understood by their
human associates ns nn intimation that
they are happy. But when we attempt
to discover the reason why pleasure
should be expressed in this way the ex
planation appears at first u very difficult
one. All physical attributes of living
beings are, upon the evolutionary
hypothesis, traceuble to some actual
need, past or present. Tlie old and de
lightfully conclusive dictum that tilings
aro as they are because they wero made
so at the beginning 110 longer can he
put forward Borionsly outside the pulpit
or the nursery.
No doubt in many cases—as, for in
stance tlie origin of human laughter—the
mystery seems unfathomable. But this
only results from our defective knowl
edge of data upon which to build the
bridge of deductive argument. The re:v
son is there all the lime could we hi:
reach it, and almost daily wo aro uhlo
to account for mysterious und upparom
ly anomalous phenomena which utter)
baffled our predecessors, Probably thS
manner in which domostio dogs express
pleasure is owing to some interlocking
of the machinery of cognate ideas. In
order to understand this better it may
he helpful to consider some analogous
instances with regard to habits of onr
own species.
There can he no question that .the
chief delight of wild dogs, as with mod
ern hounds and sporting dogs, is in tho
chase and its accompanying excitement
and consequences. One of tho most
thrilling moments to the human hunter
(and doubtless to the canine), and one
big with that most poignant of all de
lights, anticipation of pleasurable ex
citement combined with muscular activ
ity, is when the presence of game is first
detected. As we huve seen in watching
the behavior in a pack of foxhounds,
this is invariably the time when tails
are wagged for the common good. The
wagging is an almost invariable accom
paniment of this form of pleasure, which
is one of the chiefest among the agree
able emotions when in the wild state.
Owing to some inocnlation of. the
nervous mechanism; which at present
we cannot unravel, the association of
pleasure and wagging has become so in
separable that the movement of the tail
follows the emotion whatever may call
it forth.
An explanation of a similar kind can
be found for the fact that dogs depress
their tails when threatened or scolded.
When running away the tail would be
the part nearest the pnrsuer, and there
fore most likely to be seized. It was
therefore securely tucked away between
the hind legs. The act of running away
is naturally closely associated with the
emotion of fear, and therefore this ges
ture of putting the tail between the lege
becomes an invariable concomitant of re
treat or submission in the presence of
superior force When a pnppy taken
out for an airing curves its tail down'
ward and scuds in circles and half cir
cles at fullest speed around its master,
it is apparently trying to provoke its
pseudo-cynic playfellow to pursue it in
mock combat. It may be observed that
this running in sharp curves, with fre
quent change of direction, is a common
rose with animals which are pursued by
larger enemies. The reason of it is that
the centrifugal impulse acts more pow
erfully on the animal of larger bulk,
and so gives the smaller an advantage,

Review.

A Life Search,
Mon iu tlio ministry uro brought into
contuct with cranks of all sorts. Their
name is legion, und tho subject of re
ligion, which appoals strongly to the
imagination and gives full scope to
speculation, has a spociul fascination for
them. If preachers would write out
their experiences with this class of per
sons there would bo no scarcity of spicy
reuding. It was u harmless kitul of
crank that Bishop Thomas Bowmun, of
this city, ran against ouo tirno at a camp
meeting. On that occasion ho preached
from tho following text: “As Moses
lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,
even bo must tho son of man be lifted
up.” The most attentive listener in the
congregation was a tall, lank individual,
with wild, deep set eyos and long hair.
At the conclusion of the sermon he
made a bee line for tbe bishop, and tho
latter, divining tho character of the
man. tried to get away from him, but
failed.
