He was in a hysterical condition and
even after he had been taken to the

he clung to the life preserver with a
grip that could scarcely be broken. He
was removed to the Salvation Army

he was sick and despondent and that he
wanted to die.
He had had nothing to eat for twen

a doughnut.
About 1 o'clock he secured a rod and

lower deck. He leaned far out over the
railing and men standing near warned
him that he might fall overboard. A
moment later he plunged into the
water.

DECLINE OF MARRIAGE
• IS MINISTER'S TOPIC
Growth of Selfishness Ascribed a* One
of the Causes by Dr. Henry
at the Flrat Baptist
Church
At the First Baptist church last night
the pastor. Dr. Henry, began a series of
sermons on the home, choosing as his
topic "The Decline of Marriage," and
basing his remarks on I Timothy, 4:3,
"Forbidding to marry." He said in part:
"The decline of marriage is one of the
ominous signs of the times. It touches
and tarnishes the prime institution of the
civilized world. Some people ought never
to marry. Such as fools, Idiots and seri
ously diseased and brutal. This explana
tion of this alarming fact Is found ftrst
of all in the false and unscriptural no
tions ot marriage. It is viewed as a civil
contract Instead of a religious prlviless.
The stability of the state depends upon
the right relation of the sexes. Instead
of genuine love all sorts of unworthy
motives furnish the basis of matrimony;
money, convenience, romance lead many
into hasty and fatal alliances.
"This holy state of matrimony is viewed
as a kind of lottery where the quality and
value of the prlae are uncertain and iu
determinable. The extravagances of
modern life are responsible In part for
the decline of matrimony. The simplicity
of the flrat marriage has passed away.
Elaborate display and vulgar ostentation
at the wedding celemony are the almost
certain" precursors of scandalous proceed
ings in the divorce courts. To marry is
almost as expensive as to die. The silly
notion exists that newly married young
people must begin life where their parents
left off. The cost of dress, pleasure and
living are such as to deter many young
men from becoming benedicts.
"The growth of selfishness and the ex
aggerated forms of Individualism make
heavy contributions to prevent marriage.
As a historic fact increased culture ren
ders marriage unpopular. It creates mor
bid hypercrlticism, critical fastidiousness
and ideals which few can fill. The age of
luxury is both seltish and sinful. It means
growing Independence and haughtiness
between the sexes. The social and Indus
trial life of the twentieth century woman
makes her less susceptible to the appeal
for marriage.
"Undoubtedly the growth of clubs, so
cieties and lodges has much to do with
the decline of marriage. They are ex
pensive, they furnish comradeship, provide
for social life, and so in a real and oft
times perilous way become substitute
for the home. Neither club nor lodge life
ministers to the sanctity or the security
of domestic ties. False notions of mar
riage deter many people from entering
upon this holy state. For years a certain
brand of socialism has disseminated con
ceptions of marriage and married life that
are utterly false and destructive of do
mestic peace. This philosophy has been
atheistic. It regards all social Institu
tions as purely voluntary.
Home Robbed
"It ignores God and puts the marriage
tie wholly under the sanction of the
state. It robs trfe iiome of its moral ba
sis and its religtouß significance. In
sneering at England's domestic life John
Stuart Mill said: 'The whole of one sex
Is devoted to dollar hunting and the other
to breeding the dollar hunters.' He de
clares marriage to be 'the only actual
bondage.' Yon Humboldt said: 'I regard
marriage as a sin and the propagation of
ohlldren as a crime.' Such philosophy
underlies the practice of infanticide.
" 'Nihilism demands the equalization of
the sexes and the dissolution of the fam
ily. 1 The~whole tendency of such teach
ing is to degrade and destroy the home
and to deter young people from entering
upon the sacred privilege and duty of
marriage. No one will question that the
prevalence of immorality and the fearful
scourge of the social evil are largely re
sponsible for the decadence of marriage.
Impurity has become an epidemic. Brut
ality and cruelty in family life discourage
many from taking upon themselves this
holy vow.
"On an average about 3000 women in
this country are murdered by brutal and
heartless husbands. The whipping post U
altogether too mild for these domestic
fiends. The most terrible fact In the
explanation of the decline of marriage is
found in the easy unscrlptural divorce
that has become the curse and the scan
dal of American civilization.
"One half million marriage ties have
ken dissolved by the courts of. this
country within the past twenty years,
while the number of those who have
fought release from the marriage tie
has doubled within the past fifteen years.
Pretexts wl'.hout number are given as a
basis lor temporary or permanent sep
aration. The smart set, whose filthy
lucre gives them a sort of rotten respect
ability, for the gratification of their lusts
for fresh affinities, keeps the divoroe
courts perpetually grinding.
"The cure for this portentous and pes
simistic state of things is to be found
first of all in the revival of the ccrlp
1 tural Idea of the dignity, duty, and bless
ing of marriage and the home; second, a
national dlvrce law, based upon Biblical
grounds and rigidly enforced; third, ban
ish the saloon as the most prolific source
of Immorality and crime; suppress per
nicious literature and punish the vendors
to the limit of the law; insist upon a
B'.ngle standard of morality for both
sexes; a white life for two is the law
of God, and ought to be the law of
society; lastly, a reign of righteousness
and the ou.tivatlon of a public spirit
vthloh shall scourge the unclean into
social oblivion here, and prepare them
for the hottect hell which awaits them
hereafter."

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE .
BUILDING RAILROAD
Promoter Keeps Away from Wall
Street, Prays for Fund 3, It
Is Said, and He Gets
Them
KANSAS CITY, Oct. 27.— Wa1l street
will not be asked to help in the building
of the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient rail
road, which is being constructed by A. K.
Stilwell, from this city to Topolobampo,
Mexico. Christian Science Is to build the
road.
Stilwell says there are two ways to
build 8 railroad. One way Is to go to Wall
street and tell the financiers about it. If
they like It they'll build it, and let you
be a secretary. Another way is to build
It without Wall street's aid, then keep tha
road and operate It yourself.
Stilwell says the railway of 1700 miles
is being financed by faith. In addition lo
its promoter and builder, there are a num
ber of Christian Bclentlsts on the dlres
tor&to and among the shareholders.
Stilwell has been accused of applying to
financial matters the principles which
members of the Christian Science religion
Rpply to physical, mental and spiritual
difficulties. It has often* been said that
when Stilwell runs out of money In rail
way building he prays for more and al
ways gets It.
Men who have had dealings with him
say he often told them that he had no
funds at that particular moment and did
not know where he was going to get them,
but he was positive that he would have
all the money he needed by the end of
the week— and, sure enough, his faith was
always justified.
Stilwell is always Indignant when
charged with using hypnotism upon his
clients and financial backers. He admits
that hi Is sincere In the Christian Science
belief. He says that some years ago he
was given up by physicians as having in
incurable disease. Christian Science cured
him in four days, and be has never since
had an ache or a pain.
He admits he takes his religion into his
business, and he believes that other peo
ple ought to do the same, for religion an 1
business are both founded on faith, and
without faith in your fellow men life Is
empty and useless.
