A Dastardly Attempt.

A DISPATCH from Buffalo, N. Y., dated Friday, the 6th inst., says: “President McKinley was shot twice by an assassin as he stood in the Temple of Music at the Pan-American Exposition at four o’clock this afternoon.” The assassin’s name is Leon Czolgosz. He hailed from Detroit, and is an anarchist of Polish descent. The attempted assassination took place in the Temple of Music, in the presence of 3,000 persons, while 10,000 others stood outside, waiting for a chance to enter and shake hands with the President. Czolgosz was in line with the others, and as he was apparently about to shake Mr. McKinley’s proffered hand, he discharged a pistol which was in his left hand, wrapped about with a handkerchief. One bullet struck the President on the sternum, and glanced off, making a harmless wound. The other went through both walls of his stomach and lodged in his back, and may prove fatal. Upon learning the news, the rage of the crowd was such that repeated attempts were made to lynch the assassin on the spot. As we go to press, Mr. McKinley is still living, and there is hope that he will eventually recover, though his physicians consider the case most critical. One common sentiment of abhorrence must pervade all sane minds for this act, which has added a third victim to the list of the nation’s chief executives struck down by the assassin—an act as utterly senseless as it is criminal. The President of this republic is but the representative of the people, and to strike at the President is to strike at the people themselves. The incident, if it has any meaning at all, amounts to an attempt to overthrow government by the people, and if it could be successful, would only substitute a despotism in the place of the popular will.

An Excellent Sermon.

— Sabbath, August 31, Elder Frank D. Starr occupied the Tabernacle pulpit, preaching an excellent discourse upon various phases of Christian experience, such as “seeing the invisible,” hearing the things that cannot be heard, and doing the apparently impossible. It is hoped that this discourse may be secured for the Sermon department.

A Little Previous.

The note in last week’s REVIEW respecting “The Marvel of Nations,” made a statement a few days too early. This is caused by giving the workmen a little more time to get out as good a job as possible, which they are working hard and with interest to do. They felt that to rush it through would do the work injustice, and therefore asked a little more time. It will not materially delay the book, which will be ready by the middle of this month.

“Buy the Truth, and Sell It Not.”

— This was the theme of remarks by Brother H. E. Osborne, at the Tabernacle, Sabbath, September 7. The speaker stated that from his earliest experience with this people, listening to their preaching, and taking part in their social meetings, it was impressed upon him that their special characteristic is an inherent love for the truth, and an invincible determination to live it out. Then followed a Bible definition of what truth is. “Thy word is truth.” John 17:17. “Thy law is the truth.” Ps. 119:142. “All thy commandments are truth.” Ps. 119:151. A prophecy concerning the first advent of Christ says: “I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.” Ps. 40:8. Christ says of himself, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” That is, He was a living exemplification of the law and all the commandments; the law was in His heart, and it was His delight to do God’s will. He was the personification of all truth. It was shown what it is to buy the truth. We have something to do to secure it. But the obligation, “Sell it not,” is just as imperative. Here an earnest appeal was made as from a young man to the young, not to sell the truth, as all will be more or less tempted, at times, to do. Do not barter it for worldly prospects,— wealth, ambition for place, power, or pleasure. “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” The power of choice is committed to us. We can have what we choose; and if we make a mistake, the fault is ours alone. The spirit and steadfastness of the old pioneers in the cause were commended. “If the Lord be God, follow Him.”

Do It Again.

AFTER last week's regular issue of the REVIEW had been printed, and the forms taken off the presses, it was found that many more subscriptions were coming in from the camp-meetings than had been expected. Accordingly it became necessary to put the forms back on the presses and print a second issue, of five hundred copies, to meet extra demands. To those who caused the extreme pleasure of this extra bother and work, the editors and publishers wish to say, in all sincerity, Do it again; and to all others, Is there not some needy friend of yours to whom you should now be sending our church paper, the REVIEW? Many souls have been led to a saving knowledge of the truth through its weekly visits. Will you not help to increase that number? It takes but three cents a week to send this silent messenger to any person, in any country. A. J. B.

A Faithful Worker Fallen.

FELL peacefully asleep in Jesus, Aug. 25, 1901, at 10:45 A. M., Mrs. Martha A., wife of Elder A. C. Bourdeau, of 166 Kalamazoo St., this city, from general miliary tuberculosis, aged 59 years, 3 months, and 18 days. It is thought that she contracted the disease while she and her husband were carrying on evangelistic work at Montreal, and that the disease was fastened upon her and made fatal by a serious fall she received while caring for the sick.
Sister Martha was born in Waterbury, Vt., May 7, 1842, was the daughter of the late Ezra Pitt and Sarah Butler Pitt, and the granddaughter of Ex-governor Butler, of Vermont. At the age of nineteen years she was married to William P. Andrews, only brother of the late Elder J. N. Andrews. They had three daughters—Edith, who died at Basle, Switzerland, at the age of twenty-two years; Mary Louise, who died at the age of three years; and Miss Sarah P. Andrews, who is still living. After sixteen years of married life her husband died. Nearly seventeen years ago, while she was engaged in missionary work in Switzerland, she was married to Elder A. C. Bourdeau, and gladly united with him in the work of evangelization in different countries, including Switzerland, France, and Italy. She was a true, affectionate wife, a gentle and patient mother, and a loyal and kind friend.
When she was nearly ten years old, her parents accepted the Bible Sabbath. At the age of sixteen she gave her heart to the Lord, and ever since then has been a true, faithful, zealous, and conscientious Christian, devoting her life unselfishly to the uplifting, comfort, and welfare of others. Many in different parts of the world have received cheering and comforting letters from her. She was much in prayer, remembering those who needed special help from the Lord. She was faithful in attendance at the prayer-meeting, and was an efficient worker in the Sabbath-school. In her last sickness she was an uncomplaining sufferer, and took her bed only six weeks before her decease. She did what she could. Her work is ended, and she is at rest. She leaves a husband, one daughter, three sisters,—Mrs. Aurora Lockwood, of Bowling Green, Fla.; Mrs. J. G. Whipple, of this city; her twin sister, Mrs. C. A. Washburn, of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa,—two brothers,—Wm. P. Butler, of Waterbury, Vt., and Elder Geo. I. Butler, formerly of this city, but now of Bowling Green, Fla,—and many other relatives and dear friends, to mourn their loss. But they know that she expected a part in the glorious resurrection of the just, that she is blessed, and that her works do follow her. The funeral was attended by Elder U. Smith, who read as an appropriate characterization Prov. 31:10-31, and then called attention to Rev. 7:9-12 as the next scene in our sister's experience.
