THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY, "AUGUST 26, 1903.
METHODISTS ARE
NOT FOES OF TUFT
Bishop Edwin H. Hughes De
nies That Church Is
Unfriendly.
STORY IS PURE INVENTION
His People Feel 'o Hostility Toward
Republican Candidate Because
He Is a Unitarian, and Will
Not Oppose Him.
Bishop Edwin H. Hughes), of the Meth
od Let Church of San Francisco, denle
th report that the Methodist Episcopal
Church Is opposed to Taft as a Presi
dential candidate. Mr. Taffs connection
with the Unitarian Church. Bishop
Hushes- says, has nothing to do with his
candidacy.
Blahoo Hughes la at the Portland Hotel,
Jivlm arrived yesterday morning. He
will leave today and will visit the various
conference 'under his Jurisdiction. He
aid:
There- has been no official declaration
whatever by the General Conference or
by any annual conference of any hostility
to Mr. Taft on the ground of his relig
ious beliefs- Nor has any Influential rep
resentative of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, so far as I know, expressed oppo
sition to Mr. Taft because he Is a Uni
tarian. The only words on the subject
that I have as yet seen' In any of our
church papers were to the effect that it
would be un-American to attack, a candi
date on this ground.
. "The church la not responsible, of
course, for what Individual members may
cay about Mr. Taft. any more than any
other denomination Is responsible for the
hasty and Ill-considered remarks or Im
plications of one of its members or min
isters. "Mr. Lincoln was not supposed to be or
thodox, but he had no more loyal sup
porters than the members of the Method
' 1st Episcopal Church. In Massachusetts
our people have often supported Unitari
ans, like Governors Wolcott and Guild,
for Gubernatorial honors.
"Any intimation from any quart thjrt
there Is any movement whatever in the
Methodist Episcopal Church Is silly and
absurd. Our people will vote In the com
ing election absolutely as they please;
and the various candidates will not be
asked to subscribe to a theological creed
by the leaders of the church. This utter
ance Is not In support of Mr. Taft. It is
simply a fair statement of fact."
INDICTMENT OF ANIMALS
Old Jurisprudence Recalled by Xew
Jersey Ordinance.
New Tork Evening Post.
Montclair'a new ordinance against bark
ing dogs has some resemblance to a sin
gular feature of the Jurisprudence of the
middle ages, when animals were indicted
for injuries Afllcted on human beings.
The custom was not abolished in France
until the middle of the 18th century, and
the. French court records show that at
least 92 such trials took place between
1120 and 1741.
'An early lnatance of the custom was In
1314. when a bull escaped from a farm
yard In a village of Moisy In the Duchy
of Valole and gored a man to death. The
Count of Valois. being informed of the
case, directed that the bull be captured
and formally prosecuted for homicide.
This was done, and evidence was given
iy persons who had seen the man at
tacked and killed. The bull was thereup
on sentenced to suffer death, which was
inflicted by strangulation, after which
: the carcaea was suspended from a tree
by the hind legs.
In 13SS a cow was executed in the
square of Falalse for having caused the
death of a child, and three years later a
horse was condemned to death at Dijon
for having killed a man. In 1457 a sow
and her six young ones were "tried at
Lavegny. on the charge of having killed
and partially eaten a child. The sow was
convicted and condemned to death, but
the little ones were acquitted on the
ground of their extreme youth and inex
perience, the bad example of their
, mother and the absence of direct evi
' dence of their having partaken of the
atrocious feast.
One of the most grotesque of these
trials took place in Basle, when a farm
yard cock was tried on the absurd charge
of having laid an egg. It was contended
! Jn support of the prosecution that eggs
i laid by cocks were of Inestimable worth
i for use In certain magical preparations;
that a sorcerer would rather possess a
' cock's egg than the elixir of life, and that
, Satan employed witches to hatch such
! eggs, from which proceeded winged ser
pents most dangerous to mankind.
The prisoner's advocate admitted the
facts of the case, but contended that no
vil Intention had been proved, and iat
no evil result had taken place. Besides,
the laying of an egg was an Involuntary
act. and am such was not punishable by
law. Also there was no record of the
devil having made a compact with an
; animal. The public prosecutor stated in
reply that the evil one sometimes entered
. Into animals, as in the case of the swine,
which drowned themselves in the Sea of
Galilee.
60 the poor creature was convicted, not
as a cock, but as a sorcerer, or perhaps
the devil in the form of a cock; where
upon the bird and the egg that was at
tributed to it were solemnly burned at
the stake.
AS TO CAREERJN SCIENCE
Excellent Opportunities for Toung
Men, but No Great Money Reward.
fhe members of the Illinois State
'Academy of Science recently discussed
the opportunities for young men to earn
a living in various branches of science.
On the. whole they thought the oppor
tunities are excellent, though they of-
; fer nothing very great In the way of
financial compensation.
T..!... fx rnnltr thji MH.Vnnwn rm-
feasor of botany, said that the demand
for trained botanists exceeds the sup
ply. The most extensive employer of
young botanists in this country is the
United States Government. The bu
reaus of the Department of Agricul---,
wt aril tn obtain all the
men they need adequately trained in
the various branches of botany.
The market for teachers of botany is
t brisk and good teachers who are -doc-
tors of philosophy in botany command
' beginning salaries which average about
' Se per cent more than those offered
I sight years ago.
There is a fine Held for botanists in
the Philippines, where a trained man is
wanted in every province to take
charge of the educational side of bot
. any. especially from the standpoint of
I agricultural seienoe.
fYotooeov V. A. A'oyea of live Univer
sity of Illinois said that 25 years ago
very few chemists were employed In the
manufacture of iron and steel. Today
chemists are required not only in the
large establishments where steel 1
produced, but also in iron foundries
and factories of all kinds. About 8000
chemists are now employed In the
United States. Not long ago nearly all
chemists here were engaged in teach
ing, while the majority of them today
are working: In Industrial lines.
Dr. Bain, who is at the head of the
Illinois Geological Survey, said that
many railroads and mining and devel
opment companies now employ one or
more geologists. Their employment in
private enterprises Is crippling the sur
vey work of the Government, because
private companies offer nigner salaries
and draw away many of the best men.
The larger number of professional ge-nlne-tata
are still connected with the of
ficial surveys. The greatest of these is
the United States Geological eurvey,
which in the last season kept 88 geo-
olgical parties in the field, each lnciua
Inn- from one to three geologists.
According to Professor H. V. Keal, it
is much easier for soologists to get
rood places than it was a decade ago.
It is difficult to And competent men
needed for soologlcal posts in scnoois,
museums and the bureaus of the gen
eral and state Governments, which re
quire entomologists and other soolog-

Ical workers. It is believed that the
brisk demand for trained soologists
will continue in the next decade.
The prospect is good that competent
men of science will have better oppor
tunities in the future than ever before
to earn a comfortable living. Capable
and industrious workers make a good
living, but are rarely able to accumu
late wealth. Probably men of science
will always lyive to" be content with rel
atively poor financial returns for their
work.
FLIRTS OFTEN WITH DEATH
TEX TIMES HAS M'MAHOS
FACED VIOLENT END.
Tumble Into Vat of Scalding Water
' Latest in Chapter of Ever-Increasing
Casualities.
CRAWFORDSVILi, Ind.. Aug. 23.
fSneclal.V John Winter McMahon, of this
city, who has probably faced death more
than any human, being in tne country, is
nnw In the local hospital and. has passed
the danger point In his latest near-death
adventure. A few days ago he fell into
vat of scalding water in a lumber-yara.
Ten times has this 35-year-old man stared
death in the face four times hope for his
recovery was abandoned by the physi
cians. As a result of these experiences mc
Mahon's friends have dubbed him "Cat."
but they are now looking for a new nick
name to apply In a suitable fashion. In
his own words. "I have any of the cat
family beat a whole city block wnen it
comes to this life proposition. The best
cat that ever lived can boast of no more
than nine new starts In life, and I have
already been in the 'dead' line ten times,
and In a month's time I will show 'em
that I am the livest 'dead one' they ever
saw. You see, they can't keep a good
man down."
Considerably Dlsrigured-
With this he sank on his pillow and al
lowed the nurse to rebandage his hips
where a few days before the skin had
been grafted to take the place of that
which had been scalded away.
The visible results of the eleven times
that McMahon has been at death's door,
so far as his anatomy Is concerned, are:
The loss of the left eye, the loss of half
an ear, a little finger and the right foot.
An artificial limb has removed the dif
ficulty of the loss of the latter organ,
and he Is a firm believer In the expres
sion that "life Is dear at any expense."
The life history of McMahon is truly a
wonderful one. The guardian angel whioh
seems to have hovered so closely through
out his life began its work very early.
When a boy of 7, with two other little
fellows, neither of .whom could swim, be
went out to the creek for a plunge one
July morning. The current swept John
into deep water. Twice ha had gone .down
as his little companions called for help,
when he blindly grabbed at a floating
rail. It proved bis savior; and he was
dragged to shore by a fisherman- a quar
ter of a mile downstream more dead than
alive.
When He Ixst a Foot.
Nothing out of the ordinary happened In
the way of accidents until three years
later. In attempting to hop on a train
McMahon, then 10 years old. missed his
footing and slipped under the wheels. His
right foot was cut off Just above the
ankle. The mishap was not witnessed by
members of the crew. Unconscious from
loss of blood, he was picked up for dead
a few minutes later and carred Into a
nearby house. The aged mistress of the
house tore a bandage from her skirt and
stopped the flow of blood by drawing It
taut above the knee. For several, days
the boy was more dead than alive, and it
seemed the old woman's prompt aotion
would be in vain.
While still on crutches fortune again
frowned and smiled on McMahon. Ha
was watching the construction of a stone
building when the clamps slipped on a
large stone being lifted by a derrick. The
huge weight fell toward his head. He
dodged, and the corner of the stone struck
him on the shoulder, splintering the bone.
Near-death No. 4 came when he was 14,
In attempting to dislodge a kite which
had been caught in a tree he slipped
and fell from dizzy heights. The branches
helped break the fall, but in striking the
ground his skull was fractured, and for
several days he was In a precarious con
dition. While hunting when 18, a shotgun ex
plosion caused him to lose naif an ear
and one of his eyes. He was climbing
over a rail fence when the accident oc
curred. It was thought for a time that
the eye oould be saved, and he went to a

in that cttv he fell in front of a car and
0.3. rimirral 0 feet clinging to the fender.
He was considerably bruised, but managed
to be up and about within a weeK.
It was 13 years before accident No. 7
put In an appearance. McMahon was a
football enthusiast and he went to La
Fayette to accompany the Purdue' Uni
versity eleven to Indianapolis on the spe
cial train which was wrecked Just on the
outskirts of the latter city. MCManon
was knocked senseless. The man next to
him was instantly killed.
An accident In a foundry and the big
powder explosion at Fontanet this Spring
brought the number of "lives" up to
nine. It was in the latter tragedy that
he lost a little finger and escaped In a
miraculous manner with his life. He
was visiting a brother who lived near
Terra Haute, and had planned to go
through the powder mill at the ill-fated
village. He was close to the mill when
the explosion which killed so many oc
curred. He was knocked to the earth and
a falling plank lacerated his hand and
arm.
The last chapter happened three weeks
tnco and was probably the most painful
of all the experiences. Friends were will
ing, however, to give patches 01 their
sklni and enough was secured after the
severe scalding to give him a fair chance
with life. Tlie latest report is that Jie
will pull through.
TAME GRAY WOLF.
Fierce-Looking Pet That Plays -With
Little Albuquerque Girl.
Los Angeles Times.
Coyotes are often caught when
young and tamed, making playful and
intelligent pets. However, they are
never trustworthy, letting pass no op
portunity of paying a surreptitious
visit to the hen roost and being quite
likely to bite the hand that feeds them.
To say that the big gray timber wolf
can be tamed Is to run the risk of
being branded a nature faker. So many
ranchers, hunters, plainsmen and min
ers have made the attempt and failed
that few believe it to be possible. Little
fusan Ross Cobb, of Albuquerque, N.
M.. had two pet wolves, Jack and Jill,
widely known throughout the terri
tory as "the only tame gray -wolves in
America." A few months ago Jack
showed signs of surliness, and as a pre
cautionary measure Mr. Cobb had him
shot, not desiring to run any risks.' Jill
Is now more than two years old, larger
than any Newfoundland dog and of a
much more friendly disposition than
could be expected of an animal having
her pedigree. Her little mistress is ac
customed to play with her as familiar
ly as other children play with big house
dogs, but strangers witnessing the un
gainly gambols of the fierce-looking
pet cannot rid themselves of the fear
that some, day her savage nature may
reassert Itself.
Sometimes Mr. Cobb takes her for a
walk through the streets of Albu
querque, leading her by a heavy chain.
All goes well unless a stray cat hap
pens to cross their path; when that
happens it requires all Mr. Cobb s
strength to hold the wolf. She pays
no attention to dogs, being accus
tomed to the. fellowship of Mr. Cobb s
hunting dogs.
Jack and Jul were caught in the
mallpais" of lava beds of the Rio
Grande Valley when only a few weeks
old with five others, which were killed.
These two were given to Mr. Cobb,
who resolved to make the experiment
of trying to tame them. It is believed
that Jill, the survivor of the pair, is
the only really tame gray wolf in. the
entire country.
