Tht whipping: post is beneficial. It Is not brutal, but Is effective In suppressing- the crimes for which it is a punishment. This is the opinion of Deputy Sheriff Frank Beatty Who as a punishment, gave Henry Shaefer 15 lashes with the cat-o'-nine-talls last Thursday morning for wife beqllng. Deputy Sheriff Beatty formerly lived at Newcastle, Delaware, In which town Is located one or the two whipping posts of the stats. To Newcastle prisoners sentenced to the whipping post are taken from all over the north- $1 , 1 v Depnty Sheriff R. P. Beatty. ern part of the state, and they are whipped every Saturday morning. Xiooatd Zn Jan Yard. "The whipping post is located In the jail yard. ruiA the gates are thrown open to the public when the whipping begins, said Beatty. Children are not allowed inside the yard. There are us ually from 10 to It prisoners to be whipped every Saturday morning, and more tnan vu per cent or mem are ne groes. "The secret of applying the lash Is to strike In the same place well up on the shoulders. To strike lower down the back 'probably would cause serious Injury. And when the blows are all struck in one place they hurt much more. Many a time I have heard some negro at the- wmpping post cry to tne sheriff: " 'Scatter 'em a little, boss. Scatter 'em a little.' "No white man ever goes to the whipping post twice, and in 10 months there was but one white man whipped. But the negroes, who have no pride, and much tougher skins, come back sometimes three or four times, or more. I have seen the same negro whipped on two consecutive Saturdays. Feg-roea "Whipped tb Most. "The whipping post is not used only for wife beaters, but as a protection against petty larceny. But the negro's love for chicken overcomes his fear of being whipped, and that Is the rea son that more than 90 per cent of the men sentenced to the whipping post are negroes. Besides It Is not often that the lashes are the only punishment. Nearly always the prisoner has to stand ror an hour or two In the pillory, and freauently there Is a term on the rock pile to be served after the lashes are applied. whlDDed 10 months ago, was a federal prisoner. He was given 20 lashes, and after belnc whipped he made a state ment to the crowd. He said he had been In Jails, both federal and county, all over the country, but he would take pains in the future to stay out of Dela ware jails. "The erreci or tne wmpping posis at Newcastle and Dover Is to keep the state nearly clean of wlfebeaters. Some say the punishment Is brutal, but It certainly Is no more brutal than for a man to beat a helpless little wo man who cannot defend herself. "It was a good many years ago that lived In Delaware. W. J. Hofmann, who now lives In Portland, lived in Newcastle when I did and we both went to Sunday school and belonged to the Bible class. And every Sunday morning Hofmann and I with three or four other members of the class, went to the Jail and sang hymns for the prisoners. Every Saturday morning we went to me jan ana saw me prisoners whipped. Hofmann's father-in-law was sheriff of that county for a long time, and had charge of the Newcastle Jail." Her. Graham Lee, who for th laat IS ysars haa been engaged In mission ary work in Pysng Tang, Corea, occu rred ths pulpit at the. First Presbyterian church laat evening. Graphically and in detail Mr. Les described tha progress of tha missionary propaganda in Corea from a day 15 years ago, whan ha and another missionary, Mr. Moffatt, were surrounded by an angry mob and com pelled to agree to leave the city, down to April i last, wnen ns iwi vacation trip to America, escorted by 1,200 devoted Coreans. who marched three mllee to the station and atood fn line to bid him good-bye. JTo rity Is Veeded. "T would rather hav an experience like that than to have all the wealth that has been amassed by the Rocke feller family," said Mr. Lee. He scath Inarlv arrairnerf those who Pity foreign miflalonnrtea and consider money spent on foreign missions wasted, stating that n Pyeng Yang, wnicn id years ago w. an absolutely virgin field, there are now four churches, an educational msiitu tlon with 100 students, ZOO or wnom are ntlrely self-supporting, and a tneoiogi- cal seminary of 75 students, the first class of which waa graduated and re ceived diplomas the latter part of June. The attendance at one or tne cnurcnes Is so great that it Is necessary to hold women's services In the morning and men's In the afternoon. Ozowtb of OhristUnlty. The growth and development of a Christian home out of a heathen com munity was vividly portrayed. In part Mr. Iee said: "Imarlne that vou were born In Corea; that your father had bought your mother and paid for her as he paid for his horse or ox, ofttlmes giving her poorer treat ment that he gave his ox: that your education consisted In merely memoris ing characters; that your sister never got any education, for a girl was not expected to have any: that when a daughter was born friends tame and condoled with your father because a girl was born in the house; that your mother firepared your father's meal and brought t to him. and ha ate It alone, and when he had finished your mother and the children took what waa left and ate it in the kitchen. Advertlata Zmportaaoe. "A missionary who has the good for tune to develop Christian homes from uch conditions does not need any' pity, and the man who pities the missionary only accomplishes one thing he adver tlsts his Ignorance." Referring to the wonderful enthustaam evinced at revivals Mr. Lee said that the dally attendance at a class for Bible study waa over 700, the class being di vided Into seveA sections, and at the Pure Teas arc healthful-nerve soothing-delicious.

The general result of the revivals could be summarised as embraclna: a wonderful SDlrlt of Inter cessory prayer never before known, a wonderful spirit of love never before known, and an earnest desire to be ab solutely loyal to Jesus Christ. The pre vailing sentiment of all Corean songs was that of absolute, black despair, but now. due to the worn or tne mission aries, can be heard throughout Corea songs of Joy, of peace, of hope. Mr. Lee spoke In eulogistic terms of hl coworker, Dr. J. Hunter wells, medi cal missionary of the First Presbyterian church. His Ambitions." and warned against be ing over-ambitious. He said. In part: Ambition is as fierce a mental pas sion as hunger Is a phynlral one. Hun ger has always obtained since man be gan to Inhabit this world. So has ambi tion. It had its rle before the white toga of Rome named It, for the thing must always exist before the name. It is a brother to those appetites which Insure the preservation of the race and of the individual, but, like hunger, it is I a hard master. It is an cruel as the ! lynx, as cunning as the leopard, and as fierce nm the wolf-pack that surrounds its victim at nightfall. I "It Is unfortunate, however. If a young man Is not ambitious. If a man haa that desire te- mako the most of j himself, the first thing for him to do Is to prepare for the highest place. He j should fill his mind with great thoughts as the hld of the ship Is filled with bal last. He may not need the cargo this trip, but the day will come when It will be needed, and that will be his oppor tunity. He should do little things grandly. Even hauling sawdust' or (.putting; rails may be made a noble thing. The ambitious man must provide a reserve. The trouble with nearly all of us Is that we work up to the limit and have do reserve.

H. C. Shaffer, of the First United Brethren church, at the service esterday. His sermonizing was ror the enefit of those who have an opportun ity to live next to nature during the summer vacation season and those who have to remain at home. The sermon created quite an impression in the simple lesson told. Rev. Mr. Bharrer said In part: "Consider the lilies? Tes. this Is the work of the student of aesthetics as well s the work of the student of botany. We now approach the flowers, not as plants, but as "the poetry of earth, as the stars are tne poetry or heaven. in the opening Of the petals, we see Ood's smile: in the delicate tracings, we see God's autograph; in the fragrance we rind God rountains. we may nave large circumference here. The water lily yonder on the lake calls to us; Its many petals are all signals of peace; the calla Illy, whiter than the whitest snow, more perfect than Grecian art, and more attractive than marble statu ary. But the lilies are our text. r'We may wander along the banks of rivers and into the forests; we may lis ten to songs of birds In the trees, and to the harmonies or tne hillsides in bab bling brooks, we may catch the pink glow of the sunrise on the summit of the mountain, and we may muse at the dying or the day as we watch the red trail of the sun, painting the majestic deep with Its own colors and crowning each crest with gold upon which the Jewels of the ocean flash like diamonds. "Oh, little lily, thou art not God, but I have seen him In thy face, have felt him in thy fragrance, have respected Dr. Wilson Contends Men Are Born for Something, Not Everything. Dr. Clarence True Wilson took for his topic at Grace church last night, "Education, Khali It Be Belf-Made or Colloge Bred 7 ' "A man Is born for something, but not for everything," said the speaker.

Muckley spoke for ten min utes on "The Majesty of the Law," last night at the First Christian church, the gist of the talk being that rich and poor alike should be held amenable to the laws under any and all circum stances. He said the world should be rid of anarchists of all kinds, both those working In the open and the kind that sail under other colors. The talk Involved both the Haywood decision and the Standard OH fine, the speaker saying tnat he oeneved the trial in the Havwood case would result In acquittal because of the lack of cor roborative evidence, although It was in no manner a vindication of the methods of the Western Federation of Miners.
