THE government is building splendid roads in the Philippines. No doubt the Filipinos will demand rural free delivery next.

TEXAS is endeavoring to show the trusts that an anti-trust can be enforced. let the chips fall which way they may.

IT is feared that the war in South Africa has reached the bushwhacking etage. Neither side seems to be ablo t,o win in the open.

SAM JONES advises the Democratic party to unload men like Tillman. Sam ought to go a step farther and commend the teachings of live Democrats like McLaurin.

POSTAL receipts increased $9,000,000 last year, but there is still a deficit, and it will continue as long as the yiails are loaded down with second class trash carried at a loss of 7 cents a pound.

SINCE the strike began some large orders for tin plate have been transferred from this country to Wales. The labor troubles in this country give great satisfaction to British manufacturers.

MK. BRYAN'S paper becomes more and more socialistic with each issue and no one need be surprised if he makes his next race for the presidency on the Social Democratic ticket with Herr Most as a running mate and the red flag as the party emblem.

THAT bunch of young colored men who spend their days and nights too, loafing on the court house lawn should go down on Green street where the street paving is in progress and see how the colored men there work. If they survived the shock the scene might prove an inspiration to them.

THE News-Review continues to devote considerable space to abusing the city council for expending money on public improvements. It will be remembered that a few months ago when the questions of sewerage and paving were before the council, the Neivs-Jieview abused that body roundly for being deliberate in starting these costly improvements. It loudly declared each evening that the city was in the hands of a lot of "grand-daddies and fossils" who were afraid to do what "hould be done. It will be remembered also that when the present council was elected everybody in town was demanding that the town be given sewerage and paving. The councilmen were elected on this issue and they have done what the people told them to do—have done it honestly and openly and with no suspicion of jobbery attaching to thera. Of course it has cost money. Such work is not done for nothing. The council, however, in what it has done has the support and backing of thfe people and if the present members can be induced to stand for a second term they will be reelected to the last man. The effort of thNcm-Iievtew to create a sentiment against them is futile, for the tax payers realize that the sole wish of that organ i8 to return the city to the clutches of the irefficient and questionable gang, who as councilmen gave us no public improvements but kept the taxef up to the top notch, while saddling upon Crawfordsville such shady legislation as the Central Union tele phone franchise and the Green street sewer.

Steamboat Out of Philadelphia Blows Up With Appalling Results.

VICTIMS RENT AND TORN

Cabin Flooded With Scalding Water Catches the Passengers Like liats In a Trap.

Steamer Catches Fire and Is Now a Wrecked and Blackened ilu Ik.

Philadelphia, Aug. 29.-Whlle the steamboat City of Trenton of the Wilmington Kteuuiboat company was on her way from this city to Treutou, N. J., yesterday afternoon, her port boiler exploded, killing eleven persons and injuring over a score of others. Four passengers are missing, but us many sustained slight Injuries it is thought the missing are among those who did not find it necessary to go to the hospital.

Alter the explosion the boat took fire and run aground. She lies a wrecked and blackened hulk in the marshes opposite Torresdale, 10 miles .qbove this city. Iler hold is filled with water, and it is feared more of her •passongoi'BiEind crew may be found in the bottom of the boat when the water is pumped out. The City ot Trenton made daily trips between Philadelphia and Trenton, stopping at Burlington, N. J., Bristol, Pa., and other points on the Tuy. She left the company's wharf at 3:4i o'clock yesterday afternoon, 15 minutes behind her schedule time. Nothing of moment occurred until the boat reached Torresdale, where the steam pipe connecting with the port boiler burst with a loud report. Tiie forward portion of the upper deck was well filled with passengers, while many others were in the cabin. Before any of the passengers or employes had an opportunity of seeking places of safety another explosion occurred, anu this time the port boiler was rent in twain. Scalding steam and water poured into the cabin and sections of the woodwork of the boat were torn away by the force of the explosion. Those of the passengers who were not seamed and scarred by scalding steam and boiling water were struck by the flying portions of the splintered cabin. Legs and ani.s were broken and faces and bodies were parboiled. The screams of the injured could be heard on shore, and the cries of those who leaped and were blown into the river were heartrending.

When the explosions occurred Mate Vanderveer and Pilot Curry were in the pilothouse. Both were hurled with terrific force from the little enclosure, and the wheel for some unaccountable reason began revolving with lightninglike rapidity. As a result of this the rudder lurned the bow of the boat toward shore and she quickly ran aground, fastening herself in the mud. By this time the vessel had caught Are, and those of the passengers who were still aboard were compelled to leap for their lives. Fortunately the water Avas not more than four feet deep, and many of the viotlms of the disaster w^re able to wade ashore. Some, however, who were too seriously Injured to help themselves were rescued by members of the boatclubs whose 'houses line the river front at this p61nt. The captain and crew of the boat conducted themselves as heroes. They rendered all the assistance possible'to. the injured, and Captain Worrel^wiis the last man to leave the boat. All of the seriously injured were hastily conveyed to the hospital at the house of correction at Holmesburg. about three miles below Torresdale.

3usher Now Under Control. Beaumont. Tex., Aug. 29.—The wild Palestine-Beaumont oil well, which Is responsible for three deaths, was placed under control yesterday by Frederick Chase, the diver, who had worked .since Tuesday night at the task. As the land surrounding the well is covered with oil, the country will be flooded with water. This will it is believed, carry the oil to the Neches river, whence it will flow into the Gulf of Mexico.

National Dunkarrts' Conference. Warsaw, ind., Aug. 2!).—The national conference of the Progressive Brethren (Dunkards) church began here yesterday and will continue until Sept. 3.

Favorable to Settlement. Columbus, O., Aug. 29.—Secretary Joseph Bisop of the state board of arbitration, who has just returned from Pittsburg, said the prospects were very favorable for a settlement of the steel strike. Negotiations were under way, he said, for a conference between the officials of the steel corporation and the Amalgamated association, at which he believed a settlement would be effected.

UW XAKliS A HAND

LESSON IX, THIRD QUARTER, INTERNATIONAL SERIES, SEPT. 1.

Text of the Lcsnton, Gen. xxvl, 12-2S. Memory Verses, 24, 26—Golden Text, Matli. T, 9—Commentary Prepared by tlie Rev. D. M. Stearns.

[Copyright, 1901, by American Tress Association.] 12, 13. "Then Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year an hundredfold, and. the Lord blessed him." The previous chapter told us not only of the death and burial of Abraham and his son Ishmael, but also of the birth of Isaac's two sons. Jncob and Esau, and how Esau despised his birthright, preferring a present enjoyment to a future inheritance (Ileb. xii, 1(5, 17). The beginning of our present eliapler tells of a second famine and of Isaac oing to sojourn among the Philistines at Gerar. The Lord appeared to him ninl confirmed Ilis promise Abraham ami gave him "the stars of heaven" portion of the covenant. He fell into his father's sin concerning his wife and was rebuked by Abimelecli truly the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked (Jer. xvii, 9l, even the heart of Abraham, and the heart of Isaac, and your heart and mine. All that God does He does for His great name's sake, pardoning our iniquities when we confess our sins (I John i, 9 Jer. xiv, 7). 14, 15. "The Thilistines envied him." The majority of mere natural people would be apt to envy one whom they saw blessed and increasing, as Isaac was. It was contemptible to fill his wells with earth, but that was human, too, and devilish, for the merely human is apt to be much used by the devil. To see him prospering notwithstanding these hindrances was more than they could stand and must have made them full of indignation. Envy and strife is earthly, sensual, devilish, and leads to confusion and every evil work (Jas. iii. 14-16 Titus iii, 3). It is bad enough among those who know not God, but when it gets into churches and families it works great havoc and greatly grieves the Holy Spirit (Acts vii, 9 Eph. iv, 30-32). 16, 17. "Go from us, for thou art much mightier than we." Thus they sent him away, as ho said afterward when they wanted his favor. "Wherefore come ye to me, seeing ye hate me and have sent me away from you?" (verse 27). The presence of the righteous is often a great torment to the ungodly they cannot stand the sight it is too strong for their weak eyes. Isaac might have reasoned and argued with them and have insisted on remaining where he was, and have defied them to seud him away, but he was not that kind of a man he was more inclined to yield for peace sake he was a man of peace. 15, 19. Unless we know something of the meaning of scarcity of water we shall not appreciate what these wells meant, and the enormity of the sin of stopping them. To many people in India, where they have to go miles for water, a well is an inestimable boon. When in South Africa, spending a day at a mission in Natal, my wife, having washed her hands, was about to throw out the water, when she was greeted with such an exclamation of surprise and fear from several lady missionaries as she will not soon forget. They then told her that water was sc scarce that they must all wash in that water. To stop the wells as the Philistines did because of their hatred was about equal to murder. See I John iii, 15. 20. 21. The contention and hatred manifested by these unrighteous and wicked Philistines (see the marginal meaning of the names Isaac gave these wells because of the strife) were certainly hard to put up with, and only by the marvelous grace of God could Isaac have acted as he did and yielded again and again to these unjust people the wells his servants had digged. Make the case your own put yourself as far as you can in his place, that you may in some measure appreciate it. 22, 23. "Xow the Lord hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land." This he said when, after digging a third well, they did not strive for that one. After that he removed to Beersheba. Submission to wrong and oppression for the Lord's sake is not human, but it is Christlike and is a strong testimony for Him as we shall see. If we had anointed ears, we might often hear our Lord say to us, "Suffer it to be so now" (Math. iii. 15), and it would not seem so difficult if we would consider

Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself who, when He was reviled, reviled not again (Heb. xii, 3 I Pet. ii, 23). 24. "And the Lord appeared unto him the same night and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father fear not, for I am with thee and will bless thee." What a reward for his meekness, a new, revelation of God to him that~Very~night*with His glorious "Fear not, I am with thee/' How small a well, or a dozen wells,Tna all one could be called upon to bear seem in comparison with such a revelation and assurance! Truly the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is and shall be ours (•Rom. viii, 18). 25. "And he builded an altar there and called upon the name of the Lord and pitched his tent there and there Isaac's servants digged a well." A tent with the Lord is enough the Lord without the tent is enough, for a believer shonld be able to say with much assurance, "Lord, Thou art my dwelling place" (Ps. xc, 1). The tent, the altar and the words from God, "Fear not, for I'am with thee and will bless thee," are all and more than heart can wish. It must have been the power of the presence of God that enabled Isaac to act so meekly. See in verse 28 the sequel and note the testimony of Abimelecli and his officers, "We saw certainly that the Lord was with thee." The Lord was seen in- Isaac in his yieldingness, for "yielding pacifieth great offenses," and we are exhorted to let our yieldedness be known to all men, for the Lord is at hand (Eccl. x, 4 Phil, iv, 5). Had Isaac stood for his rights, as we say, in the matter of the wells, God would not have been seen in him. We must contend earnestly for the faith (Jude 3), but when we can avoid strife by a little yielding let us yield in His name, though it may seem a personal loss. Isaac might have sent these Philistines away and have refused further intercourse because of their former conduct, but grace again prevails, and now we see the sequel to this yieldedness. Isaac's servants were digging a well at Beersheba and that same day they came and told Isaac that they had found water (verse 82).

ON THE CANCER GERM.

Dr. Oaylord'* Report of Experiment* of Last Three Tears. Dr. Harvey R. Gaylord, in the American Journal of Medical Sciences, publishes his official report on his experiments of the last three years, made with a view to finding the germ of cancer. The increase in the number of cancer cases and the fact that it ranks next to consumption as a cause of death in this country, make his report of the greatest interest. It is written in a technical manner, which makes it largely incomprehensible to the laity, but enough can be gleaned from it to give hope that the doctor really has found the pestiferous little "protozoon" which causes cancer. Many learned scientists have searched for the little rascal before, but without success. Dr. Gaylord believes that he has caught him. In cases of well developed cancer the doctor discovered small transparent bodies which, under the microsoope, were observed to change their form, increase in size and pass througb what appeared to be

a

spore-forming

stage. By inoculating animals with these protozoons the doctor was able to produoe a cancerous state in them. One

guinea pig so inoculated became

afflicted with

"a
