_A_MHEP.S’1‘, April 25-Seventy-five citizens of the Joggins Mines had what mal’ be termed a miraculous escape from death or severe injuries tonight. Rev. J. L. Batty, of Monc- ton. at invitation of the I. O. O. F. Lodge of that place, was cn lecture in the Oddfellows Hall. About 7.30 p. rn. there were about the number mentioned shove in the hall, which is in the second storey of the building. Without warning, the floor gave way, precipitating the audience to the floor beneath, s fall of about fourteen feet.
The flooring and joists blocked the
lowcr doorway, but the rescue party, which assembled speedily,- broke in the doors and windows and `onc by one the victims of the fnll were brought, out. Two men, Samuel Gray and Edward Adams, were somewhat injured, but not seriously. The oth- ers, ultliough badly shaken up and somewhat frightened, wcrc no worse for the mishap. Mr. Batty had not reached the hall when the accident took plnce. A slight fire caught from the stove, but it was soon put out. If the accident had occurred half an hour later there would have heen fully five hundred in' the hall.

(Delivered last evening by Rev. Dr.
Fuilerton)- - ..
"Joseph brought unto his _ father
their evil report.” Gen. 37:2.
It was perhaps brave in Joseph to
tell his father of the ribald talk of his brothers but one cannot eliminate the thought that the narrative car- ries with it the suggestion of unbro- therliness. These disclosures may have been the result of his moral sen- sitiveness but they created in his brethren an envious hate. They felt his superiority. Ii they had not felt this they would have despised him as other favorites, have been. despised. They hated him, with a hatred almost inexplicable. f The incident shows the power and,
at the same time, the possibility of the good or evil of speech. This is our theme and it has been emphasised in all ages. Think much, write lit- tls, Be -as silent as you can, was the only rule of a club of literary men in France. Bt.'James extolled the gift of silence, "Be slow to speak." Our words do not die. They produce their fruits for good or for evil; they console oritorture, exalt or degrade, solemnlze or make frivolous the lives of men. All loose tongues are akin to lying ones and insincere at the best., All idle, drifting,mesn- inglels talk makes an idle, drifting, meaningless character. It exhausts force. He who speaks the common cant and plausibilities, who seeks not :ns approving witness of his own con- science to that which he says, but merely looks for the plaudits of men, soon grows unreal and false of soul. Hence the importance of our subject. "CII thmnnspoken word thou art mas-

In connection with the Mount li son Forward Movement a deputa on consisting of Rev. Dr. J. W. Graham, Toronto, Secretary of Education for the Methodist Church of Canada, Rev. Dr. Borden, President of Mount Allison university and Mr. ii. ‘A. Cdssidy of Toronto, arrived in Char-
lottetown saturday with inc nbicbc of carrying out a short term canvass similar to that which was ‘conducted in St. John and Fredericton last week.
The method of procedure is to en-
gage a committee of business men for the purpose of making a general cun- vass for subscriptions, meeting once e. day to report progress. A commit- tee, having volunteered their servitos here under the presidency of Colonel Moore, will begin operations to-mor- row, continuing on Wednesday. The amount aimed at has not yet been fixed but $50,000 was collected in St. John for the two days there and $4,- 000 in Fredericton for one day.
Three collecting teams have been
organized under thc leadership, re-
specitively, cg lllcllr. LhE.Cl‘l£ou;4=o, Dav son an rs., . . -o _ ‘ e committee will rncet Ito~ds.y with the leaders in I-leartz Memorial I-lall at 10 a.m., when all those interested are
expected to be'pres¢(a;;. I t t I Inc uded in the ar o te oun e -
forts wiil'be Summerside, Pownal Murray River, Alberton, Bedcque, Tryon ond other points.
The canvass is not for hard cash
but for promises of financial support, covering a period of tlircc ycurs, the first contribution being payable in January next. The object of the movement is to raise $250,000, including an endow- ment of $200,000 and $50,000 for a Science Building.
Mount Allison is the only college
now appealing to the
public for such assiisé t a n c c, Dalhousie having ra se nearly half a million last year and Acadia, at Wolfvi ic, having obtained a eimilm: sum .w., iii,s.,,.tl\p,,)BiB.t 1°.“\`. years. Mt. Allison: lN!l_made no gen-
'eral appeal during the past twenty-
ilve years until now. Rev. Dr. Graham preached in con- nection with the appeal at Grace Church yesterday morning and in First Methodist Church in the even- ing, there being large congregations present at both services.
\--~\-~\
surrender our right hi-.ui to retail 'I what of those, \vno are .~ow beyond the reach of the human ioicc, whose hearts we once sorely wounded 'by our cruel, thoughtless, hasty words.
Another warning needed today is to
avoid unkindness in speech. Never uct on the principle of being what the world coils "frank" when you know that your utterance niust undoubted- ly create pain. There are many who rake pleasure in this frankness oi speech but it only proclaims a. cruel and malicious disposition. "The poi- son of asps is under their lips." Evil speaking, tale-bearing, slander, calu- mny constitute the most hideous form of gossip and is absolutely antagon- istic to the Christian spirit. There are some who, vain of their detective powers, only see the ugly, seamy side of human life because they look for it; they miss its fairer, diviner side. Such people are, enemies of the peace and comfort and joy of human life and consequently of the principles oi the Christian religion.
We are not however forbidden _to
tear aside everything that uuwbrthily veils wrong doing. There are some things that we must uncover in the in- terests ofthe cornmunity's life. There is 3 prevalence of profanity on our streets that is to be greatly deplored. You have only to mingle with the people in order to he shocked by pro- fane and blasphemous expressions which are meaningless. » Buch ex- pressions are a sign of weakness, oi ignorance of the language we are lup- posed to know. It is also to be feared that many of the unchaste ex- pressions heard are sn, indication of the unclean heart and' the impure im- ag`ination.
Avoid the sin of untruthfnlness. E21 nggerstion in every form ouzhf- t0 bv eliminated. Beware above all things of the elanderous lie which falsely de- famee and traduces the innocent. Cen you conceive e more vile occupation than that of simply living as some doe to malign and to iniure others 'I
