The schooner Hilda has arrived a t ; New York, having on board four men, the sole survivors of 82 souls, composing the crew and passengers of the steamer Ville de St. Naisaire, which left New York for Port au Prince, March 6. The survivors &ay that the lost steamship encountered severe weather on March 7 while off Hatteras. * Floods of water found their way through the gratings to the engine room and extinguished the fires. The vessel was unable to make any headway and Capt. Jaeaueneau gave the order to man the boats. Boat after boat was dashed into splinters against the side, until four of the eight had been rendered useless. And then, at last, was the successful though hurried launch of the other boats, and the crowding into them of passengers and crew. In the haste to leave the vessel it was impossible to g e t provisions or water to last more than a day. Of the four boats only one had been heard from. It is believed that the other three were lost. The largest boat contained 38 persons. It had practically no provisions. ' It was tossed about on the rough seas for seven days and seven nights, and for six of these days and nights the passengers were with-~ oat food or drink. When discovered by the Hilda only four of the 38 original occupants were alive the others having one by one succumbed t o starvation, thirst or insanity and in the latter condition several leaped into the sea.. The saved are: Berry, inspector of the Campaigne tieneraie Trans - Atlautigne; Maire, the ship's doctor; Stents, third engineer; Tagado, a San Domingao The latter saw h i s wife and four children die one by one in terrible agony and i t is thought that he will lose his reason from the effects of hie ssrfal suffering. •ad, surprisOlVenpind did uoVreilgSr the stand for • re-ttcgUgh troit, *fr v&mw Rep, (OafhfA ft known *$ ft fsHhful P)ngree man, had .been nominated by the Republicans for the office it met hearty approval, particularly in t h e House,, where resolutions were adopted congratulating Mr. Stewart and directing the, sergeant- at-arms," to decorate his desk with the American flag and with flowera, and he was jf run ted indefinite leave of absence.

The Grand Rapids charter bill, which has consumed so much time in the House, and which was the cause of a contest between the city and country districts of Kent county over their respective representation on the board of supervisors, was finally passed, the country people having conceded board to the city.

I heard her murmur, "ho-v Fhall I tell him? How shall ! : re • t \) c news to him?" A jfltlm came into my eyes, and all my "?rs returned with terrible force. In 'other moment my mood had changed. •Mother," *aid I, in a savage, imparl nt tohe, "m the name of my dead falser, I command you to speak plainly to me!" Oh, Amos, my son," she asked, with infinite tenderness and pity, "are you. s • mg Enough to bear it?" Goon. My wife !" WCJ, not worthy of you, was not vorthy of my son! Ah, me." she. :noaned, wringing her hands. "Why did I bring her into this house? But she was a child then, and I thought her iunocent and pure." A strange calmness came upon me. "If you do not wish me to curse the tongue that casts a doubt upon my v.fe's purity, be silent, and Bpeak not another word. Ay, if an angel on this holy Christmas night said to me what you have said, I would curse him as he stood before me. I am going now to Mabel's house." / I made for the door, but my mother strove to hinder me from my purpose, crying: ''Stop, for mercy's, sake, Amos! Tour wife is not there." "I'll soe for aayoelf," I mattered, dog gedly. "I'll give neither. Mabel nor my child cause to throw reproaches in my teeth for lack of faith or love.- I'll stop to hear no more enigmas,"- 1 walked swiftly through the snow to Mabel's house, looking neither to the right nor the left It might have been the brightest summer's night, instead of the bleakest and dreariest, for all the notice I took of it. I kswefced Joodly at the door, and almost Immediately more loudly still, in a y impatience; and jMsestly I received a eoagfc greetls« In a voice thee was strange to ma.

But I am the owner of this house now, and have occupied it for . a year and a half, and no woman lives with me. Women! I have had enough of women! A false, brazen lot! You've got your answer, and be off with you! No wife of yours or any man's lives in this place, nor shall while I am in It." The window was slammed to violently, and I was left, dazed and bewildered, alone in the wintry night. There was no doubting the truth of the man's words, and I walked slowly back in the direction of our cottage of shells with a sort of dumb despair settling upon me. Midway I met my mother, who had toiled after me through the heavy snow. She was panting for breath, and looked inexpressibly sad and woe-begone, but I had no pity for her—indeed, no feeling whatever with respect to her. I was absorbed in my own grief and amazement at this unexpected shattering of my cherished hopes. I took her arm, and led her back to her home. No word passed between us on the way. She glanced up at me many times timidly, pityingly, imploringly; bui if her features had been carved in stone, her entreating looks could not have made less impression upon me. How bleak and drear the. night had grown! The wind chilled me to the marrow, and I trod the white snow with sullen steps, ft suited my mood to tear and deface it as I walked. What beauty for me was there now in the unstained carpet? I took a savage pleasure in marring its purity, and I dragged my feet through it vindictively, as though it were my enemy, and could feel the wounds I was inflicting upon it: In this way, and in perfect silence, we reached the cottage of sheila "Sit there," I said, sternly, to my mother, pointing to a chair.

If you value my love, do exact- I turned my face from her, and stood thus while she told her story, keeping a strong restraint upon myself, steeling myself, as it might be* and. speaking only necessary words, though It was hard to do; but you who have sustained heart-shocks will understand my feelings and what torture I endured during the recital. CHAPTER XI. H E neighbors," said my mother, "began to talk soon after you • went away. Before that they always spoke well of you, but now their tongues were all against you. I couldn't makP if nut, and I quarreled with them for slandering you. And when they told me you had a wife in another country, I threw the lie into their teeth, and asked them how dared they set their tongnes to i t Oh, we know what sailors are!' they said; 'and your son's no better than the rest.' Then it began to be whispered about—how shall I tell yoorhotp-shell I tell you?— it began to be whispered about that you laid a base plot to ruin Mabel's character; and those I quarreled with—I did not use gentle words to them, you may depend—became more bitter than ever, and said worse and worse things.

"She was at home to give this man the lie." < "No," answered my mother; "the day after you left, Mabel went into Jhe country to her mother, and I did not see her for a great many weeks. 1 have lost count of the time, Amos, but it must have been quite three months before I saw her, and then I did not see her to speak to. Before she came back all the mischief had been done, and I was not on good terms with a single soul in the neighborhood. I can't teti you how unhappy I was, all alone as I was, and with my son that I loved so far away. Well, one night I happened to hear that Mabel and her mother were at home, and without waiting a moment, I ran to the house " She paused again, and passed her hands across her eyes, striving to recall something which bad slipped her memory. I did not help her by a word; even when she held her trembling hands imploringly toward me, appealing to me by that action for even the slightest sign of encouragement, I made no movement. There was no room in my heart for compassion at that time. She continued, but in a weaker and mure uncertain voice than before. "Forgive me, Amos," she said, humbly, "but it is hard for me to remember what came after that. You will know why presently, and then perhaps yon will pity me. I went to the house, and saw Mabel's mother outside. Amos, she { waited till I got close up to her, and then turned her back upon me, and slammed the door In my face. At that, of course, I went away all of a tremble, thinkics that Mabel would come to me. I stopped at home till ten o'clock at night, but Mabel didn't come. I didn't know_wh»t to think. I couldn't make out the .eason of her keeping away; she ought to have run, to me:the moment she came home—you know that, Amos. If she had loved you " I interrupted her sternly. "Go on with your story, and tell it straight Never mind what ought to have been done. Let me know what was done." "Waiting for her who should.have come, but didn't, was driving me mad, and I couldn't abide it any longer. Late as it was, I went to her house again, They were not abed, as I could tell by the light, and I was going to knock at the door, when, happening to peep through the window, who should I see in the room, with a glass before him, but your enemy and mine, Mr. Druce. Both Mabel and her mother were with him, and they were talking together, as the best of friends might do; and Mr. liruce was sitting there as Ihwifii ha had a right to be in that place, and as though he did not Intend to go away in a hurry. Amos, if I could have found heart and strength to knock at the door, I am sure they would have turned me from the house. But I had no thought of anything or anybody but you, my son, away on use your enemy was laughing and Joking with her who should have spit in hts face for daring to speak to her! I turned from the window, store Uhe a mad woman than anything else. Intending to come homo to our own little cottage here, where we had spent so years; but I was blind and aliased my way.

V in •*— If this thing keeps up, a state,of oelligerency will have to be recognized between the American correspondents now in Cuba. ' WHh a full-fledged king on its staff, that New York paper may manage to print a little truth. "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." Never bear more than one kind of trouble at a time. Some people bear three kindB—all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have. An Oregon pioneer haa sent Major McKinley a tomahawk, but the Major will not need It in his business during the next four years. No kind of hawks are needed. A Tennessee womw wants to legislate the collar button out of existence. That's tfce trouble with the collar buttori. It's already non-existent nine times out of ten when you want it From the manner in which Mr. Lexow tackles the tobacco trust it is evident he thlnka that where there is so much smoke there must be some fire. Ife aieo intimates tbere U a good deal of water. / A member of the South Carolina legislaiiusjppoposes to wring a few dollars out of labor by imposing a tax upon washerwomen. It is a scrubby sort of a statesman who would iavor a law of that kind. An Eastern exchange says a scientist has discovered that the earth will be dead In three hundred millions of years from now. Whether it will be tofallr annihilated or just dead, like Davp B. Hill, is not stated. With a delicacy of expression that almost entitles the man to. a full realisation of his wish, a veteran of the Civil War, who was wounded while running away from a Confederate force, declares {that he believes himself entitled to a pension because he received his hurt "while marching rapidly in front of the enemy." , A smile is as sheep as a frown, has occasionally turned out to be worth vastly more In hard cash. Recent English newspapers tell of a lonely old bachelor leaving all hja property to a young lady known to mm only from the fact of living opposite, because for several years she had smiled pleasantly upon, him when they casually met in the ttoet, and the smile nad cheered bj* lonely heart and won this practical recognition in his will. , < * * • _ ' • It is certainly grievous that the New York man who for three years has TALM AGES SERMON. f, v- i * * • " » • < - . » > "ftUPFBR ,ROR OTHRW* t A 8 T > t v 8U*P4Y'%ftlUUlOT*. *u UM T«sti **Wltko«« aaeMtea* ef iaoW TlU** 1* No lUstMtaa of StnsH —Bobfows; OhSptor W V U M »t-*A licrUM Tfcat If PwM.tic«kl by V«ry Fow Val«at»rUy. OHN 0. W H I T ' TIBIi,thelasti>f the great s c h o o l of Americas poets that made the last quarter of a oenfury brilliant, a^ked me in the White Mountains one morning a f t e r prayers, in which I had grves out Cowpere famous hymn about "The Fountain Pilled iwith Blood," "Do you really believe '.there Is a literal application of the blood of Christ to the soul?" My negative reply then is my negative reply now. The Bible statement agrees with all physicians, and all physiologists, !and all scientists, in saying that the ;blood is the life, and in the Christian ;religion it means simply that Christ's 'life was given for our life. Hence all ithie talk of men who say the Bible '.story of blood is disgusting, and that •they don't want what they call a ^'slaughter house religion," onty shows their incapacity or unwillingness to look through the figure of speech toward the. thing signified. The blood that, on the darkest Friday the world >ver saw, ooaed, or trickled, or poured from the brow, and the side, and the ;hand§, and the feet of the illustrious sufferer, back of Jerusalem, in a few 'hours coagulated and dried up, and forever disappeared; and If ;nen had defended on the applicatiou ol the literal blood of Christ, there would not have 'been a soul saved for the last eighteen centuries. • ' In order to understand this red word of my text, we only have to exercise as much common sense in religion as we do in everything else. Pang for pang, hunger for hutfger; fatigue for fatigue, tear for tear, blood for blood, life for life, we see every day illustrated. The act of substitution is no novelty, although I hear men talk as though the idea of Christ's suffering substituted for oar suffering were something abnormal, something distressingly odd, something wildly eccentric, a solitary episode in the world's history; wlien I could take you out in this city, and before sundown point you. to five hundred cases of substitution and voluntary suffering of one in .behalf of another. -..^^, "> * ; At 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon go among the places of business or toil. It will be no difficult thing for you to | find men who, by their looks, show you ithat they are overworked. They are prematurely old. They are hastening rapidly toward their decease. They have gone through crises in business that shattered their nervous system and pulled on the brain. They have a shortness of breath and a pain in the back of thehead^ and at nigh£ an insomnia that alarms them. Why are they drudging at business early and late? For fun? No; U would be difficult to extract any amusement out of that exhaustion. Because they are 'avaricious? In many cases no. Because their own personal expenses are -lavish? No; a few hundred dollars •would meet all their wants. The simple fact Is, the man la enduring all that fatigue and exasperation, and wear And tear, to keep his home prosperous.

But she goes right"V,on, looking carefully after his apparel, remembering his birthday with some memento, and when he is brought home worn out with dissipation, nurses him, till he gets well and starts him again, and hopes, and expects, and prays, and counsels, and suffers/until her strength gives but and she falls. She is going, and attendants, bending over her pillow, ask her if she has any message to leave, and she makeB great effort to say something, but out of three or four minutes of indistinct utterance they can catch but three words: "My poor boy!" The simple fact is she died for him. Life for life. Substitution! About thirty-six years ago there went forth from our northern and southern homes hundreds of thousands of men to do battle for their country. All the poetry of war soon vanished, and left them nothing but tKe terrible prose. They waded knee-deep in mud. They slept in snow-banks. They marched till their cut feet traoked the earth. They were swindled out of their honest rations, and lived on meat not fit for a dog. They had jaws all fractured, and eyes extinguished, and limbs shot away. Thousands of them cried for water as they .lay dying on the field the night after the battle, and got it not. They were homesick, and received no message from their loved ones. They died in barns, in bushes, in ditches, the bussards of the summer heat the only attendants on their obsequies. No one but the infinite Cod who knows everything, knows the ten thousandth part of the length, and breadth, and depth, and height of the anguish of the Northern Jind Southern battlefields. Why didAhese fath- Lars-ieave their children end go to the | front, and why did these young men, postponing the marriage day, start out into the probabilities of never coming back? For the country they died. Life for life. Blood for blood. Substitution! But we need not go so far. What is that monument in Greenwood? It is to the doctors who fell in the Southern epidemics. Why go? Were there not enough sick to be attended in these Northern latitudes? Oh, yes; but the doctor puts a few medical books in his valise, and some phials of medicine, and leaves his patients here in the hands of other physicians, and takes the rail-train. Before he gets to the infected regions he passes crowded rail-trains, regular and extra, taking the flying and affrighted populations. He arrives In a city over which a great horror is brooding. He goes from couch to couch, feeling of the pulse and studying symptoms, and prescribing day after day, night after night, until a fellow-physician says, "Doctor, you had better go home and rest; you look miserable." But he cannot rest while i no m#ny aro nuffering.—On and on, unisaac, and th*Jftn^0q& just in time et as a S U 4 n r o v l d e a ^ r a m o f t ^ e quakes and. recoils snd,,greens at the horror^i, ... ,<, All good men have for centuries been trying to- tellowhonu -this Substitute was like, and every comparison, inspired and uninspired, evangelistic, prophetic* tanMtolic^Aftd human, falls short, fori^^ristwgi.thP.O'^ Unlike.

Starting out with the morning-train from Brussels, Belgium, we arrived in about an hour on that famous spot. A son of one who was in the battle, and who had heard from his father a thousand times the whole scene recited; accompanied I us over the field. There stood the old Hougomont Chateau, the wails dented, and scratched, and broken, and shattered "by grape-shot *and cannon-ball. There is the well in which three hundred dying and dead were pitched. There is the chapel with the head of the Infant Christ Shot off.' There are the gates at which, for many hours, English and French armies wrestled. Yonder were the one hundred and sixty guns of the English, and the two hundred and fifty guns of the French, fonder the Hanoverian HuBsars fled for the woods. Yonder was the ravine of Ohain, where* the French cavalry*. not knowing there was a hollow in the ground, rolled over and down, troop after troop, tumbling into one awful mass of suffering, hoof of kicking horses against brow and breast of captains and colonels and private soldlers, the human and the beastly groan kept up until, the day after, all iwas shoveled under because of the maloder arising in that hot month of June. >r.

The House again voted against the appropriation of 97,500 for a Michigan exhibit at the Tennessee exposition, "but it was again reconsidered and another attempt will be made to get it through. The bill to establish a bicycle corps in the state militia at Lansing, met with opposition on account of the appropriation involved and wjss finally recommitted to the committee on military affairs. There was a long debate over the bill to prevent cruelty to children. It provides that anyone who tortures, or cruelly punishes a child, under 16 years of age, shall be guilty of a misdamnannr. and be subject to imprison - ment at hard labor from three months to a year.

The Senate refused to dictate to the U. S. congress what legislation it should consider, by killing Senator Bostwick's measure calling upon Michigan 1» delegation in congress to favor a law for the establishment of a postal savings bank system by the governj n e n t While in the killing mood the Senate also throttled the Donovan bill permitting boards of education in cities to allow children between 14 and 16 years of age to absent themselves from school upon recommendation of truant officers. The following bills were passed, however: Limiting the liability of hotel keepers upon the baggage and valuables^of guests; repealing the law allowing prison authorities to sell ticket* of admission to their institutions; providing a penalty for the giving of false information to school census enumerators; for service upon corporations of a process issued from the circuit court; for the use of any thoroughly tested voting machine in elections of the state; for the bonding of the village of Yale for water works. The most of the business transacted in the House was in committee of the whole and the most important matter there considered was the oleomargarine bill, which was agreed to.and which provides a penalty for the coloring of butter substitutes in imitation of butter.

The Greek nation cannot endure this state of affairs much longer, and the situation will become uncontrollable. The world has never wituessed such a spectacle as six powerful nations acting in the name of Christian civilization, surrounding an island with their warships, and starving a noble Christian people, whose only offense is that that tbey have fought for their liberty. While doing this, the nations are feeding and upholding their savage Turkish oppressors." The lines in the king's face ^rew hard and his big brown eyes flashed, while the veins stood out with painful distinctness in his temples, his lips trembled, and his voice shook with emotion, as he said: "It is hard to restrain the natural impulse of the Greek army, to vindicate the honor of their flag, and to pre- -rent^airadvance~on""the" Turkish forces which threaten our northern frontier. Now it is said that the powers are threatening to blockade Volo, the naval base of our forces in Thessaly. It would be an infamous thing to do while the Turkish army menaces our territory. If it is done, it will be useless to attempt to hold our troops back any longer, and I will order them to go forward. My mind is made up." War S««ms Inevitable. Athens: Crown Prince Constantine, who has been chosen to take command ot the Greek forces on the frontier, started for Volo. An immense demonstration was made before the palace previous to his departure. Constitution square and streets adjacent were filled with an excited throng, cheering and singing patriotic songs. The populace shouted "for union and war," and cheered continually for the crown prince and the army., An immense throng, including many thousands of Cretans, assembled on the quays at Piraeus, brilliantly illuminated by lime lights from houses in the vicinity, to witness the embarkation;—The wildest enthusiasm was displayed. A deputation presented to the crown prince a copy of the resolutions' which were adopted at a public meeting, declaring that the people of Athens and the Piraeus were faithful interpreters of the sympathies of the nation, which was ready to make any sacrifice of blood or money in the cause of Crete. Crown Prince Constantine replied as follows: "Have confidence in me. I know my duty. Best assured I shall acquit myself like a soldier. ^ It is officially stated that the question of declaring war depends upon the present negotiations with the powers. No man on the streets of Athens believes this, all accepting the departure of the crown prince as indicating that Greece has come to a definite definite decision t o go to war. That the departure of the crown prince is really a serious matter was evinced by the touching farewells of the king and 'queen.

The House amendments to the Senate joint resolution appropriating 9250,000 for the saving of life and property along the Mississippi river, were agreed to and the resolution now goes to the President. The Cuban question was brought forward by Mr.' Morgan, of Alabama, who presented a resolution requesting the President to inform the Senate whether letters had been received by the present and former chief executive from Gen. Maximo Gomez, commander of the revolutionary army in Cuba. The resolution also asks whether t h e ' Spanish authorities in Cuba have refused to allow cipher dispatches to be transmitted between the D. S. consul a t Sagua la Grande and the U.

There were no formalities as to its reference to the commit- , tee on finance. Mr. - Hale, of Maine, secured immediate consideration and passage ot a joint resolution directing the seeiatary of the navy to use a government vessel or charter a. private"vesset ^ for the transportation of contributions of grain, eta., to the famine-stricken people of India. Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, took occasion to speak briefly on the demonetization of silver in India, brought about by England, as one of the chief causes of the present la» condition of affeiraia India. In the executive session the consideration of amendments to the arbitration treaty was completed. Senator Chandler took occasion, to call attention to situation in Crete, and said that he did not feel disposed to enter into negotiations with any power whose guns were trained upon a community of Christians, struggling to throw off the yoke of Moslemism. He also spoke of England's conduct toward_the Boers of the Transvaal as deserving of condemnation and a cause for hesitation in the present negotiations. Housn. — No session.

Tou hater her from the moment I spoke to you of my love for her. Whyndid you do so? You threw doubtsthen upon her goodness, as you have thrown doubts this night upon her purity. If you had done what you should have done when Mabel returned home, if you had gone boldly Into her house and spoken to her plainly, all this misery, all this torture, might have been avoided. But you had condemned her in your heart from the first, and were only too willing to believe all the bad things that were said of her. You., a woman who, for my sake, If not for her own, should have defended her, a young and Inexperienced girl, from the malicious tongues of slanderers and liars, who were striking at my life and my happiness, sided with them against her, and had no word to speak in her defense. "What could have been in Mabel's mind on that happy Christmas night, three years ago, to cause her t o win from me a sacred pledge of trustfulness in her faith and love, I cannot with'certainty say; but some shadow of fear was upon her. Perhaps she suspected you were not her friend; perhaps, with the knowledge that her own mother was against me, she dreaded that circumstances might occur in my absence to cause a breach between us, and she wished to strengthen both herself and me. Anyway, she drew the pledge from me, and she gave me hers, and I believe in her faithfulness with all my souL T h e harder task of faithfulness is yours," she said, as she kissed me;' and she Ijold me that while I was absent from her she would have three embrace | talismans with/1 »,-faith and "Wh)f!.

T I R H I N O scenes are now before me scenes which are woven in the bis- | tory-of my life, and which will lead me naturally t o t b e end. But b e f o r e t h e y c o m mence there is a blank, so far as .concerns the proper business o / my story* A blank of six or seven years. I have lost count of time; and to this day, although I have been tenderly and playfully assisted by one who is very, very dear to me, I cannot fix the exact number of years I was at the other end of the world. Being there, I had but one object before me, and in pursuance of it I traveled thousands of miles on foot Wherever 1 heard of a woman and child who in any way resembled the description of those I was in search of, thither I directed my steps. This will not appear so strange to you who have not traveled in those regions, when I tell you that on the gold-diggings at that time there were fifty men to one woman; therefore, a woman could be more easily tracked than in a big city. Neither weather nor distance deterred me. I traveled through flood, and literally through fire; for I was' in the Black Forest on that awful black Thursday when scores of miles of silver and iron bark trees were blazing fiercely. You may walk through the forest on this day, and follow the track of that terrible fire. Many a false track did I follow, only to be disappointed, after miles of weary wandering. Over and over again I was in Forest Creek, Tarrangower, t^endlgo and Ballarat. In ffieTastplace I , w a s a witness of the terrible riots, and took part in them, being compelled to do so to save my life. I went to every new rush—to Maryborough, Dunoily, Avoca—but never found those : was in search of. One time I followed a woman and child for six months, losing tbem whenever I reached the place I was bound.for, and following them on to the next, where I lost them again. I could fill a volume with my adventures during this time; but the telling of them would not forward my story. I moat here record a certain change of feeling which came over me at about the expiration of a couple oi years. The desire to find my wife became weakened; the desire t o find my child became more and more intense. Soon I thought almost entirely of my child, and I pictured him in my im agination as growing up year aftei year, with fair hair and blue eyes, and with features resembling those of my father, Beecroft, Mariner. This change of feeling led t o another impression as the years went by. I got it Into my head that my wife might have died, bat that my boy waa certainly alive. Curiously enough, instead of becoming disheartened by my want of success, I never once Jost my conviction that the day would come when I should hole him in my arms.

For a great national object this can eaally be endured, although, to be sure, we never have known just what the regular dealers thought about it. But when weftityisi'der that the same thing Is done to some extent In behalf of every locab or sectarian enterprise it is evident that the principle/of the affair is not quite satisfactory. Suppose, for instance, that we were all to agree for a single year to have all our shoes and hats made by amateurs "for sweet charity's sake" and to have a single church or hospital take the value of them. Then sweet charity would make an apparent gain, no doubt, but all the ordinary hatmakers and shoemakers would starve. Or, if they did not starve, they would be supported by their k'Gjdred, who perhaps are not far above the starvation point themselves, or they would be supported by- sweet charity, and the last condition of things would be worse than the first. It Is not really the.fact that the evils of society can be greatly helped by dressing up young girls prettily and having them take money and give rather inaccurate change at a bazaar table. One day, perhaps, when the laws of trade are better understood, we shall look at charity fairs as we already look at lotteries, which were once. regarded as one of the highest forms, of sweet charity but which are how prohibited by law.

Abdul Hamid, the present sultan ol Turkey, has a harem which comprises no less than 3,000 women, among whom blondes predominate to a very considerable extent, the padishah manifesting a very marked preference for damsels with fair hair and biue eyes.

The sultan only keeps these odalisques for any length of time if they bear him children. Otherwise he gives them away to his officials and dignitaries, the presentation being regarded as a signal honor which is, moreover, invariably accompanied by a gift of money to serve aa a species of dowry. A feature which has never been touched upon in connection with the reigning family of Turkey is the infanticide. True, none pf the sul- -tan'e own offspring are killed, hut the children of his male relatives are pitilessly strangled soon after their birth. To such an extent has this practice been in vogue in Constantinople that the father of the present sultan was the first ruler of the Ottoman empire who ever had any children living at the time of his accession to the throne. The present sultan has followed the example of his predecessor, and his brothers, though married, have no living children.

The bill i s the result of efforts by t h e - Pan-American Medical Congress, a gathering of physicians from the countries of Worth, South a n d Central America. Such a department, if e s - tablished, would study in a systematic and scientific way, not only disease* and their prevention or cure, but many kindred matter* which have quite a s important a bearing upon the welfare o f the people—matters such as the condition of t h e laboring classes, their workshops and dwellings, the cost and nutritive value of various kinds of food (tie purity pf water supplies, etc, The comparative statement of t h e receipts and expenditures of the United States s h o w s t h e total receipts during February to have been 124,400,997, and t h e disbursements $28,796,056, which l e a v e s a denctt-for t h e m o n t h o t 94,39*^59,,as compared with a deficit of about $690,000 for February, 1896.

The receipts from customs last m o n t h amounted to $11,637,- 16$; from internal revenue, $10,888,421; from miscellaneous sources, $1,925,315. A t compared w i t h February, 1896 there is s h o w n a loss from customs o* about $3430,000. a gain of about $82,000 from internal revenue and a gain of about f&KMMO from miscellaneous sources.

It has also been found that a suitable fungicide will kill the germs on the tubers without injuring the growth of the potatoes. Corrosive sublimate meets these requiremeuts aud has been advocated by the Purdue experiment station, where its application originated. So effective has it been found, so cheap and easy t o apply, thai many large growers, who get extra prices for their crops by having high grade product, have adopted the treatment as a regular thing. The deadly poisonous nature of corrosive sublimate, however, hus kept It from coming into general use. It Is, therefore, considered a matter of considerable moment to be able ' to announce the discovery of a new fungicide for potato scab, one that Is thoroughly efficient and not poisonous. The new substance is formalin (sometimes called formaldehyde), a watery solution of a gas, not very expensive, and rapidly coming into favor a s a general antiseptic, so that i t i s likely to become still cheaper a n d better known. It is sold by the fluid ounce, and can be obtained a t most drug stores. The method of using the new tungictde is very simple. Bight ounces ot the formalin are added to 15 gallons of water, and in this the seed potatoes ;ire soaked for two hours: After taken from the bath they can be cut and planted as usual, either at once or after some time. Formalin i s not corrosive, and so can be used i n any kind of vessel, and not being poisonous, there are n o particular precautions to be observed. it does, however, make t h e bands smart, if there are any raw spots, and the fumes irritate the eyes and throat. But these are only slight annoyances. Further information about formalin AndJtsjLse_asaJunglclde will he given in a bulletin- tcTbe issued T n - a ^ s h o r t time. The potato crop o f the state of Indiana reaches annually the large figure of over 90,000 acres, and nearly 6,- 000,000 bushels, and Is sometimes larger. T h e treatment of t h e seed tubers a s here recommended, will materially raise the market value of the crop, and prove a source of profit of uu mean proportion. Try i t J. C. Arthur, Botanist. To Fight the San Jose Scale. The recently discovered widespread occurrence of the worst known insect fruit pest of America, the San Jose scale, and t h e imminent danger of heavy and continuous losses resulting from the common distribution of that insect, have stirred all the interests involved to unusual activity with a view to escaping if possible from so serious a misfortune. The Ohio State Horticultural-Society has lately issued a call for a national conference t o be held i n Washington with a view t o maturing and recommending national and state legislation for preventing the distribution of insects and fungi Injurious to fruits. A preliminary conference of official entomologists and professors of horticulture representing eight north-central states w a s held i n Chicago Jan- T * e irtnsitim l a XLUaola. w h i l e bats i t *T i m -™ 4 w f * * R p W * * * * * ; ^ - t ^ T W a S a ^ ^ i t e r r i t o e ^ o n e J ^ U O ^ d C h a * t a w ^ t a - T a ^ d T ' ***• • p o a o e t u r W a * 1 , 6 0 0 1 * i Z t T a S a S e t t o ^ h a k * a l e l * l o a veritabla ^ — - * colonies o T t h T f i a a Joat aoalt h a v e ! * « p r » « n a l b ^ f f i b i j [ i l thug f a t v b e e n detected 4m » « * » « * t i o t a ^ % ^ K ^ I ^ t t ? n o r S T ^ S l ( " f c * - * • tojur« tt^ii^aihigh Itieaoki e s a . auMSfliM * vm say fofHTof BtTVOUe Ridge o n the south, and from, Baris and Danville o n t h e east t o M o l l a e , : Quincy and Alton on the w a t t One of ( the areas infested, t h a t near Sparta, l a Randolph county, Is < equal t o * about v half a m i l e s q u i r e and m c l u d e » v e r a l orchards '* ^ he oypfoae stmok'wlpindlef w i t h o u t i o j r a b o a t 6 a. ui; I t * work of lags b e g a n before t h e inhabitants j ^ ¾ ¾ ½ ixed their danger anff h a r d l y a n y ; fcrSW means of escape was ldft «a«u. ******* B ^ S f i S tat Mn»»T ness h o u s e s and d w e l l i n g * w a r e lifted gftfcSE• «?!% irwna w re; *• MS Of „ , , _ Opium, or ywsUet Isdlearettoa e* o*er iaimlMSt eftfe CbsvutaioaalWrittfrlo+q.

On the tables of the rich and poor alike tbey are acceptable; yet it is gcuerally the rich alene who have them, from t h e fact that tbey are able t o get their supply from the market. The poor man either grows his or goes without. The Limas require quite a little extra care and fostering, but this i s well expended If a good crop can be secured. May i s near and by the second or third week we should begin preparations for the crop. This will seem very late to many, yet nothing i s gained by planting too early. If they are the varieties that may be poled, we will give each hill plenty of room; say three and ouchalf feet between rows and two and one-half feet apart. Around each pole a large quantity of well-rotted manure should be thoroughly worked Into the soil and then eight or ten beans planted. A Lima, bean wants t o be planted right side up, too. It will pay t o give a little attention to this seemingly unimportant d e t a i l Then' be sure to seed heavily enough. Better too many i n each hill than that only a few straggling plants be found. When they begin to creep up the pole, keep the latuahr that a r e only a drain upon the strength a n d vitality of t h e vine pinched back. "They don't mature and I can't make them." This i s the complaint, heard o n all sides from would-be Lima bean growers. Keep the vines pinched back to mature the few that do set and this difficulty will be surmounted.—Success with the Oarden. Hailng- at IUhiott mtrersety. T h e first reports of the sophomore assault upon thajtr^shman supper overdid the matter a little. T h e young lady whose eyes were Injured has fully recovered. Yet t h e affair was disgraceful enough. The council of administration of the faculty has investigated the affair very deliberately and carefully and a s a result nine students have been expelled. Nearly all o f the sophomores and freshmen have given their pledge to the university that they will not again engage i n a n assault u p o i other students o r do a n y other thing w h i c h will subvert the good order of the institution. President Draper sympathizes with a l l manner of legitimate sport but.it is for the expulsion of any student, w h o injures another, destroys property o r interferes with the orderly progress of university affairs.. He thinks students w h o violate the laws should be treated Just as other persons w h o do so. T h e decided stand taken by the faculty h a s lifted the sentiment of the university to a higher plane and the outcome has given new confidence to all friends o f the institution. Indeed, the university has had many compliments for Its vigorous action. lESMinfWlWFflUHiPilU The* n i g h t w a s one of indescribable terror.

The MacDonnells are three parallel ranges of mountains running east and west and separated by naxrow valleys; the most remarkable of these, which has been mapped by the explorer, has been named "Horn Valley/' The total length of this, extraordinary valley li 100 miles, and It Is only 400 yards in width.

He was a sort of king in his own country, and had brought his queen with him. He was dressed in a coat of black grease plus a bone through his nose. She was alto dressed in a coat of black grease, plus the crown jewels, consisting of a dog's tooth necklace. They were not announced; it was quite unnecessary; I knew when they were approaching. They came with a fair wind. I could tell when-they were between me and the camels. We dined early, and I think they enjoyed their dinner,- - ~ OLD 8 C H O O L H O U S E .

One-third of Greenville, Miss., is a dewrt of water, a scene of desolation impossible to describe.

The water is deepest la the extreme northern limits, where flt has reached a depth of. about seven lest. From this point it shows a gradejgd decline. Mew Town, Miss., a very thickly %ssJtt district, peopled almost entirely is under water, the depth from a few Inches to Ave feet. Belle Air, which contains many homes and was beautiful with lawns and blooming shrubs, is a Venice, and the only means the peoptr 1utvr of leaving or returning to their homes is by hosts, which are various.

B«port«r OMlMrinf Kewa The Post-Dispatch correspondent went by skiff from here to all points possible by water in a radius of fifteen miles in every direction from this city, says a telegram from Greenville, Miss. It was a common sight to see rabbits or domestic, fowls floating on driftwood, deer on little islands here and there above the water, and the starving creatures do not now fear the approach of man. In one instance a negress was calmly smoking a pipe on the roof of a log cabin, while a stream of water was running through the doors of her hut nearly up to the eaves of the roof. fnt^sWa^^ miles below Tunica, Miss, The ere* vsttMpwfciJa net fat * t great wkUlfc/4f funy*flltsaai jaet deep aid the> water is po«xS*s ifcwiah 4hft opening with fearfulvetocHy..

No loss of life Is reported, the inhabitants of this stricken section hav lnc made preparations for just ittoh a catastrophe as exists there. The condition of the poorer classes throughout the flooded area is indeed critical. Thousands of refugees are huddled on levees and spots of land waiting tor relief. The towns of Rosedale and Tunica report that everything possible is being done for these poor people, but that funds and provisions are fast becoming exhausted. In the little cdty of Rosedale alone 1,200 refugees are being cared for by the citizens. Half a hundred towns stand In six feet of water and the yellow stream is creeping up blowly but surely.

Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, called up his resolution declaring that a state of war exists in Cuba and recog*rii%fti|?' both*'^parties as belligerents. Mi'. Morgan declared that instead of sending a lawyer to Cuba to investigate the case of Dr. Ruiz, as was contemplated,. the administration would do well to scud a ship of war to Havana and demand redress. At another poin* Mr. Hale, of Maine, questioned" Mr. Morgan's statement that Cuban prisons were "stuffed" with American prisoners, declaring that the information "reachinir him (Hale) showed that no such condition existed. Mr. flCocgcn then hot)y asserted that he trail in communication with the Spanish authorities. Mr,—Hale indignantly denied this.

SKNATE-rNineteenth day.—The Senate upon receipt of President McKinley* s message urging relief for the flooded regions of the Mississippi valley, passed a resolution appropriating *15Q,- 000 to b$ immediately available. Later, however, a resolution passed by the House was received, appropriating 1200,000 for relief in the Mississippi and the Bed River of the North regions, and this was accepted in lieu of the former resolution and was passed unanimously. Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, -resumed his speech in support of the resolution declaring that * slate of war exists in Cuba, but did not conclude. HOUSK—Action, was promptly taken on the President's message and a jqint resolution adopted authorizing the secretary of war to expend $200,000 for the relief of the flood sufferers of the Mississippi and Red*River of the North valleys. Tbe most interesting feature of the session was a passage between Rep. Simpson, the Kansas Populist, and Speaker Reed. Mr. Simpson hotly criticised the speaker for his inaction in withholding the appointment of committees and preventing the progress of legislation. Mr. Reed replied that he was merely the instrument of the House and that his actions were governed by what he considered the will of the majority, and that the House had power to command the speaker if it disapproved of his course. The Republicans expressed their approval by applauding. Tbe House then adjourned. I •! II . 111 A CHjcsAtle Swindle Laid Bare. The "E. S.

When this preparation first became known to this part of tbe State it attracted Immediate attention owing to the qoaintasss of tbenome-Dr. Williams' Flak Pills for Pale People. The same signified in a measure the purpose for which the puis were Intended. Since their Introduction probably no other medicioe has equalled it In extent of sales. Why is this sot Is the popularity of Pink Pills due to the nameT Yes sad no. Tbe individuality of .the name doubtless is due oaly to their great merits. It was a surprise to your reporter to find so many people ready to talk for them; sad if any reader will take trouble to inquire he will be surprised to learn how many of his friends have taken and are taking the deservedly popular medfeine. Tbe first gentleman interviewed was the Ex-Auditor General of the State, Geo. W. Stone, Esq., of Lansing, who spoko as follows: "1 have used Williams' Pink Fills now for a period of about four years, beginning when I was Auditor General. Whenever I am nervous or run down, as I am occasionally, from business worry and overwork, I have taken them and I have never been able to find anything so good, although I have tried everything, including strychnine, iron and quiniue and other remedies." The next person whom your reporter saw was Mrs. H. M. Rulison, of 728 High Street, Lansing, "I took several boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills about three years apo. I felt much better after taxing the first box and 1 think thev did me a great deal of good." The next was W. A. Dietz, of 585 Cedar Street, N. Lansing, who, as bis many friends know, was a paralytic for ten years. His statement shows the value of Pink Pills In ejpreme nervous disorders: "1 have bad paraiy sis for about ten years. 1 began to take Williams' Pink Pills about three months ago. I have tried nearly every remedy I could hear of, but these pills did me more good than anything else X ever tried. I notued their good effects first because ° they removed tbe bloating which troubled me. I waa very nervous. Tbe slightest excitement or loud noise would cause great drops of sweat to stand out on my hands and face. This condition has also been greatly improved by the use of the pills." Here follows an account of another cure of paralysis: "I was taken with a stroke of paralysis one year ago, last April, and for tea months wi*»*otabl>e4» walk dawn lews* a d istance of three auarters of a mile. About August 1,199$, after having had doctors aad having tried many remedies 1 began to take Williams' Pink Pills. When I had taken tbem for a time I began to improve snd soon felt more like myself. Before I began to take the pills I could not articulate plainly and could not write my name. My feet and legs were as useless as a new born baby's. I am now able to speak, write and walk as well ss ever. My strength is not entirely restored, but my general health is good and I am gaining rapidly, i have recommended the pills to several of my friends and they eanaot say too much for the benefit they have derived from tbem." DAVID T. NICHOLS, 719 Ionia Street. The following interview was bad with Mr. A. L. Landon, of 2W Larch Street, N. Lansing: u I had pain in my back, accompanying kidney and urinary trouble. I began te take Williams* Pink Pills about a year ago aad was relieved of my trouble, and I am satisfied that the pills did me more good than anVotber remedy I have taken." Or.

In looking over the matter of tbe beet-sugar industry we have come to the conclusion that it has come to stay and it would be well for the farmers in this vicinity to look into the matter, as the soil in this vicinity is just adapted to the'raising of the sugarbeet, and it seems to us that Pinckney would be tbe right place to locate a factory, here in the midst of such rich land. If tbe farmers wiU take hold and investigate this industry, there is no reason why there is not money in it for them. Do not wait until every village in tbe state has a factory, but be among the first. We are to have a race track that cannot be BEAT, what is the matter of having another industry that is ail BEET.

When money is scarce it is more than ever important that you should do so. One dollar will pass from hand to hand doing a world of good if itjs kept going. Some-iiiilo child may be going hungry or some poor woman freezing because you keep in your pocket the debt that ought to be paid out.

BURDETT PolAonone nah are found In large nuflttbars and in many places, but more especially In the tropics. They are qutto common in the Brazilian and Went Indian waters, and also in the Bast Indian and Australian waters. Three kinds of flsh belonging to the mackerel family are poisonous. One Is called the jure! and Is found in the West Indies in large numbers, says the Medical Record. It can be distinguished from the common mackerel, which also abounds In the same waters, by certain peculiarities of marks. Thus, the JureThaaThoTtnJ ~bTack spot on the gill covers; it has two scales on the neck, while the harmless kind has a black spot and BO scales on the neck. The poisonous kind grow large, and often weigh ae much as twenty pounds, but the others seldom run over two pounds. Mackerel weighing over two pounds are not allowed to be sold in the Havana markets. The chicora is another kind of poisonous mackerel. It Is found in the West Indies, but the natives of those Islands do not regard tt as dangerous. The meat of the chicora Is not fit or safe to eat at certain times of the year. The people of the Guadaloupe sometimes use pieces of the fish which have been caught to poison rate. The bonito is a kind of mackerel that is most dangerous at certain times of the year. Usually It is a very pleasant and palatable bit of food, but every once in a while white people are taken ill after eating the bonito. Two kinds of herring are known to be poisonous. The meletta, or tropical herring, is found all along the Atlantic coaet as far north as New York. Within recent years there have been several cases in which people have died after eating this flsh. The meletta which is found in East Indian and Australian waters Is always poisonous and is the most dangerous, because it is not easily distinguished from another kind of herring which is comparatively harmless. The poisonous kind has a black spot on the dorsal fln, while the.other has not these marks. The poisonous meletta resembles a herring, being five or six inches long, with silvery scales and a bluishgreen back. Some flsh are poisonous at certain seasons of the year and at other times wholesome. And, finally, as a note of warning, we sary thaf*visltors to thef tropical countries should take no risk of eating flsh which are not known to be safe as well as palatable. 1 iL ' ' -V ''"' *" —awtow^-»—»*—w— oad Mart- wounded while M s r ^ m e i v j wa*\Ja retreaVbnt he did not gar tt The.*' tfcat way.

The most curious book in the world is neither written nor printed. Its pages are composed of the finest quality of vellum and the letters were with infinite pains and trouble cut out of the material with a sharp-pointed knife or a pair of delicate scissors, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It is interleaved with blue paper and the letters can, therefore, be read as easily as any print. It formerly belonged to the Prince de Ligne ?nd is now i n t h e library of a noble French family. The title of the book is "Liber Passionis Domini .Nulla Materia Compositis;" in English "The Book of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in Characters, Without Materials of Composition." The matter is a homily probably composed by. some monastic preacher of the middle ages. 'A remarkable circumstance connected with this book is the fact tfcaK although it bears the royal arms of England, no mention of it can be fountr in any English writing. The book is believed to have been made 4 some time in the thirteenth or fourteenth century. In 16401 the Emperor Rudolph offered for it 11,000 ducats, which in the money of our time would equal about $66,000, and the offer was refused. *> *> .sVsVs>ss> V i>(* v i t ^ ^ i i ^ ^ j i J i ^ ^ i j>» Custiman's Menthol Balm la the safest,r raermesedt,y a nfodr most reliable CUTS BURNS BRUISES SALT RHEUM ITCH ERYSIPELAS CHAPPED HANDS FROSTED FEET AND OLD SORES.

Party lines were not closely drawn except in a few local instances where the financial question was still a, cause for political differences. The returns from townships to the county •eats were-very slow in coming in, but it w a s early apparent that Charles D. I*?ug had been re-elected to the state supreme court ben oh, and the figures .shown in later returns give him a plurality of about 50,000. William J. Cocker and Charles D. Lawton were elected regents of the University of Michigan by a smaller margin, by pluralities of about 40,000. The constitutional amendments did not receive the same amount of attention that the candidates did and con* ssquently the vote on them was not so large; but they were safely carried. While the Republicans are able to rejoice over their candidates being elected the Silver-Democrat-Populist ticket* made a showing in some counties which appear to greatly please the leaders of the fusion ists. For instance in Saginaw county Yaple received a plurality of about 1,200; in Ingham 500; S t Joseph 750;; Calhoun 750; Arenac 900; Branch 3000; Gratiot 100; and several other counties are claimed by small margins. On the other hand it is shown that for jthe total vote polled and for the issue's at stake the Republicans can be well contented with their victory, for, it is claimed, had the vote been aa large as last fall and the percentage of votes to the parties the same as is given in ts\ese'returns the Republican victory would be still more apparent. * The National Democrats in some localities voted conscientiously for their ticket without anv prospect of victory, and in Washtenaw county Regent Barbour received a plurality on that ticket of over 1,000. The most notable local contests were the mayoralty election in Detroit and the special contest for the seat in the house of representatives belonging to the Second district of Saginaw connty. In Detroit, Gov. Pingree having been ousted from the mayor's chair and a special election called by the supreme court, the Republicans placed before the people Capt. A. E. Stewart, a wellknown vessel roan and a member of the preserJt state legislature. In opposition Wax Maybury, a lawyer and an ex-congressman, was entered by the Democrats. The Pingree power was behind Oapt Stewart, while the Democrata (both Silyer and National), Populists and disgruntled Republicans backed Maybury. The campaign was short and hot and the result very close, the face of the returns showing Mr. Maybury to be elected by a majority of 491 votes. It is said that the Republicans are not satisfied and will contest Mr. Maybury's claim to the mayoralty. The contest in Saginaw county was caused by Kerr, Democrat, having been declared elected last fall by four votes, over Beird, Republican. A special committee of the house of representatives investigated and recommended that Kerr be unseated and Baird seated, but the house preferred a special election, which has resulted in Kerr being elected, this time by a majority large enough to give him the seat-beyond question. i * • Freaa Ionia.

Gov. Pingree sent in a message vetoing the Flint charter bill. He said that he bad received petitions aggregating 1,600 names of electors of Flint asking him not to sign the bill and it seemed to him to show plainly the need of a home rule bill such as is embodied in the Lusk-Gordon bill now before the legislature. • Now that the spring election is over some of the members are promising that the legislature will awaken from its trance and do public business. It is asserted that the holding back in final .action upou such important matters aa liquor laws, railroad bills, anti-trust bills, etc., will be ended at once and the work of lawmaking proceeded with. The house gave evidence, after the election adjournment had ended, of an intention to work. The members did not meet until 0 p. m., but instead of making the session a mere matter of form they went right into committee of the whole and began work on the general order, but no bills were finally disposed of. The Senate also did some work in committee of the whole. Work! Well, if the legislature don't soon do better than they have started out since election they will not be very likely to get down to work this summer. The Senators started in to play circus the first thing. The desk of Senator Thompson, of Wayne, was elaborately decorated with flowers and as he took his seat he was applauded— presumably for his part in helping to elect Mayor Maybury, of Detroit, and thus turn down Gov. Pingree. Then a resolution was sent to the clerk's desk praying that the anniversary of the spring election be a perpetual holiday to be known aa Maybury day. Another resolution requested the president of the Senate to recognize Mr. Thompson's "acute attack of joyous exuberance contracted on account of the late election in the city of Detroit, and appoint him chuirman of the committee cf the whole for the afternoon session, and then excuse him from active duty for the remainder of the week." The Senate resembled a country school room during recess as Mr. Thompson was installed in the chair and then they settled down a little— and agreed to a bill to allow the catching of chubs and minnows with nets In Les Cheneaux channel. During the day the Senate passed the following bills: Providing that applicant* do not have to study two years in an attorney's office to become eligible to ad mis* sion to the bar; providing a salary of $300 for the treasurer of the board of control of the/home for feeble-minded.

Ruis Rivera, the successor of the late Gen. /Maceo. The insurgents opjgned fire/and the Spanish infantry move^_upon the trenches under cover of the artillery, and one company of cavalry galloped forward, capturing the trenches and seising as prisoners five men who lay there wounded. CoL Bacallao, on learning that Rivera, was one of the wounded, hurried to the trenches and begged the soldiers not to kill him. Rivera was taken into the presence of Gen. Velasco. The larger portion of the insurgents escaped. Railroad Men Have a Mvoting. Special trains from every direction carried railroad men into Grand Rapids to attend a general railroad meeting.

He didn't act fairly to "us, for one tine morning he made himself scarce, and-I and my mate, and * lot of others, had to whistle tier our gold—and then it dUla't «ome. We vowed Death to him if he •ever, crowed our path; and I got a description of him from my mate; a short,0 thin scoundrel, with iron-gray .hair on his face, hanging almost from his eyes—to hide his villainy I suggested. However, we got more gold, and I saved over a hundred ounces, which I was not fool enough this time to part With. \V*ell, we had pretty nigh worked •out this claim, when I had a drtnm-* not of my wife and child; no, ot my old mother. It seemed to me that she was dying before my eye3« &nd. when I woke, and found, thank Cod! that I had been dreaming, the last sound I beard from her poor old lips, "Oh, Amos, my son, my son!" came to me with mournful significance. She had been a good morheT to me; and I had but 111 repaid her by leaving, her in Iter old age with no provision, (as I now remembered for the. nrsfr time, God forgive me), after these many years. I awoke in,the dark, and I lay awake thinking until the sun rose; 1(ftW)in the J darkness of that night i eew my duty clear before me. I resolved to go home, make the old woman comfortable (all my unjust and bitter feelings toward ner had melted away), and then come back again, if necessary, and renew my search. You may say that I might nave sent money home, and that that would have answered the purpose. So I might have done; but I thought that by going home I might perchance hear new* of my wife and child. I ha* < not written a line to my mother all these long years. Not that she could have read It, but eh*would have got a neighbor to read it for her; and it occurred to me all of a sudden that in my haste and hot-heededness I had neglected the chance that might have restored to my arms those wfeo ,wete„ so preetotf* to mo. I astonished my mate in the morning when I told him I wan going horn*. No inducement that he could offer was strong enough to hold me back, and that very day I was on my road to Melbourne, with my gold in a belt, buckled round my waist When I reached Melbourne I was in no difficulty about a ship. Hobson's Bay wag full of homeward- bound craft, and after running my eyas over the names, I selected The Rising Sun, ft twelve-hundred-ton clippar, Ops lying, oJK. S e n d e e / a n d ~to sail In a tew day** How often hate I thought that ft special destiny must have led me to eetaet tfcmt ship out of the large number that were advertised lor London! I don't believe, aa some believe, thai our Uvea are ruled by her, the' firmer grew the conviction that I had deeply wronged and wound- .Od her. Not that I ever believed tor one moment that my wife was false _Jp_me.—No, not I elung to that anchor of faith is her love and truta. It kept me from stranding on the roek of utter disbelief in human goodness. At the appointed time we sailed out of Port Philip Bay, with a fftir wind. Nearly all the passengers came aboard the laet day, and I saw but little of them, having enough else to do. We had' aboard a hundred and sixteen souls, all told, made up in the following manner: Passengers, sixty-one meu, eleven women, eighteen children; crew, twenty-six. For the first two or three days all went well, but trouble was marching upon us. We got into light easterly winds; about, that time, also, the weather got slightly "foggy. Scarcely any of the, passengers were about as yet; tnvmftjorltJGgbf them were below with aea sickness, and hot one of the women had put in an appearance on deck. The fog beginning to increase, and continuing to dp so, a sharp lookout for land was kept. We had been out now ten days, and I observed that the skipper wa.8 getting anxious. Neither was I easy In my mind. We were in the vicinity of dangerous rocks, not laid down as yet in the charts, and the fog, growing thicker and thicker, made' our position more perilous. For myself, I had no fear of death, but a heavy weight was on my mind with respect to my old mother at home; and the desire to see her once more, and make amends to her for my harshness, grew stronger because of the danger we were in. It was at this time that I made the acquaintance of two of our passengers; they were children, a boy and a girl. - I WAS standing near the lookout, straining my eyes to the eastward, where we supposed rocks to be, When, looking down, I saw those children by my side. They were about the same age, nine years old maybe. I placed my hand on the boy's head, and, stooping* gazed at the little fellow. He returned my look frankly. "Well, "my man," said I, "and what may your name be?" "Bob," said he. His voice startled me, and I gazed more searcbingiy athim._ A beautiful^ face was his, with fair, curling hair and bright blue eyes, that made mine CHAPTER XIV.

All the old memories flowed back upon me like a. strong tide; and but that I felt snch a supposition would he akin to madness, I might have encouraged the thought that by some miracle my own son wras standing by my side. "And yours, my little maid?" I said to the girl. . "Pearl," she answered, in a voice clear as a bell, and which to my fancy resembled Bob's. "Then," said I, with a strange palpitation, "Bob and Pearl are brother and sister." "Oh, no," they both replied in one breath. "But you ought to be," said I, kneeling by them, so that my face might be on » level with theirs.. "Bob has blue eyes, and so has Pearl; and you have light hair, too, both of you." They stood with their arms round each other's waists,Bob being the shyer of the two. We prattled together for as many minutes as 1 could spare from my duties, and I learned that they were in no wise related. Both their mothers were on the ship, they told me. "I haven't seen them on deck " said 1. "Oh, no," said Pearl; "they have been 111, and are not wall yet. I hate the sea—I hate it!" And the little maid stamped ber foot, and tears came into iier eyes. "And you, Bob?" I asked. "Do you hate the soar' " f a fond of it," said Bob, "and I want Pearl to like it, but she won't. She says «he wishes there wjuurX any aen in nW world.

X must tell my ^ ^ W n » T T h e " r u s T ftnd stlfteess oi story straight The weather got worse Instead of better, and at night—it was four bells in the first watch—"Land!" was called. I was in the watch below at the time, and we were summoned on deck at once. The course we were steering was east by north, wind being northwest Orders were at once given to square away the yards, to clear the vessel tor the land, and then for about half an hour we hove away southeast, and alter that hauled up again to the eastward. In less than forty minutes, however, we beheld the treacherous rocks straight ahead of us. As I saw the white waves—whiter because of the darkness which surrounded us—dash* ing against them, I had no shadow of doubt that we were lost Pitch dark it it was, but a sailor can see rocks without a light to guide him—for the matter of that, I believe he can smell them— and it does not need a-sailor's eye to see the white foam from a raging sea dashed from an iron bound shore back into the black watera. Matty's the time I have seen the spotless spray leaping up the sides of the rocks that line the foreign shores, and, ourling back again in beautiful showers, laughing in the sun-sparkles that filled them with light, and made them look like millions of living silver stars; but then the days were fine, and the sun was shining. It was different now. There was no sun and no moon, and the swell of the sea toward the shore came to my ears like the sound of muffled drums. The task we had before us now was to prevent The Rising Sun from setting bodily toward the land; but the task was too much for us, and though we worked with a will we could not avoid our fate. Th« vessel hardly had steerage way; and the heavy southwest swell was driving her nearer and nearer to the black rocks. By midnight she had become perfectly unmanageable; and all the passengers, being now alarmed and aware of their peril, were on deck, keeping their feet as well as they could. I looked' out on the lee beam, and saw the land, like a fog bank, creeping nearer and nearer to us. Jn the midst of my duties I had striven "har'a\'"Tirt~^ilh^uT^uccee», to discover Bob and Pearl, and it was while I was thinking of the land with a feeling of agony that a woman's voice, falling on my ear, gent a shock through me which curdled my blood. "Hush, my child—hush!" were the spoken words; and it was my wife who uttered them to my boy. Dumb with a fearful joy and amazement I turned toward the voice, when The Rising Sun came crash against a sharp, Jutting rock, and, if you will believe it, carried part of it away. In the midst of the cries of despair that accompanied the crash, I myself called out: "Mabel! Mabel! give me my boy!" But my voice only added to the general terror and confusion, and before we had time to recover ourselves, the ship lurched on to another point of rock, which carried away her spanker-boom and rudder. And now, dark as it was before, it grew darker. Ay, it was like the Egyptian darkness, ior it could almost be felt, and The Rising Sun seemed to be slowly cutting her way through it, as iLit were a substance. The two points VPnc*: which the vessel'had struck fofsaed the entrance to a huge water, cave, and into^thie cave we were now fatally working our way. This accounted for nees, for above us and before savage rocks, from the waUe of which the thick slime was crawling down to the sea.

F a r Mv«ry Tree F e l l e d T w o Others A i r P l a n t e d t o K e e p Up t b e etopply. It will undoubtedly be news to many that tbe vast mahogany forests of Nicaragua are controlled In Boston. The cutting and shipping of the immense exports from that country is of a great enterprise in itself, to say nothing of bringing it here and manufacturing it Into lumber. One steamer plies regularly/ between this port and Central America engaged in this trade. At present she is on her way out from this port Five hundred thousand to 700,000 feet is her usual cargo. While the steamer is now on her way to the lumber ports, there are somewhere onthe seas bound to Boston four schooners laden with mahogany logs. Their cargoes are each about 260,000 to 300,- 000 feet. Employed in Nichragua and the United States of Colombia by Mr. Emory are from 1,000 to 1,500 native workmen and lumbermen. There are under American bosses. The trees from which mahogany furniture is made vary in age and size. When out they range in age from twenty-five to thirty are even sev^ enty-flve years old. They average twenty-five inches or more in diameter and run as large as forty Inches and even more. For every mahogany tree that is cut twp others are planted, and thus the forests are practically inexhaustible. From tbe time that the tree is felled to the hour that it Is damped off the steamer at the Chelsea docks is an •^••tfti! life for the mahogany log. The tree is cut into the proper lengths and then comes the tedious Joarney in the coast, where it la taken on board the vessels bound for tills port The greater part of the cutting la done darintftfeedry season, which m the United States of .Colombia begins about the 1st - of December. The mativec of this country seam to make better loggers and are better adapted to hunbering than the Nicaragua**. In Nicaragua the sftssy is more irregular sad for lumbering ig less* to a* dspeevaed uposv.

The Semi-annual convention of the C. E. union of Livingston county was held at the M. E. church in this village on Wednesday afternoon and evening of last week, and if good speakers, good attendance and good attention have anything to do with making a success, then this convention* was e success with a capital "S." The day and evening were all that could have been asked and the roads were good. The people began to ar rive as early as 12:30 and some even came before that. The reception committee were onthe alert for the com7 fort of all who came and. none were slighted, even the teams of those who came from a distance, were taken care of. AFTKBY009 8B8810H. A little after 2:00 the convention was opened by a song service, led by Walter C. Robinson of Detroit, and by the time the song service was over the chureb was filled to overflowing gallery %nd all. President, W. J Thistle of Unadilla, calied the convention to order after which 'came the devotional exercises conducted by Rev M. H. McMahon, pastor of the M. E. church. After tbis followed the ad dress of welcome by Miss LeJa Spaulding of East Putnam and the response by Rev. H. B. Dunning of Unadilla— both were excellent. The bubjeet "Spiritual Life and How to Obtain it" was ably handled by W. C. Robinson and Rev. Thistle and much good was gleaned from their talks. The report of the state convention and the reports of the local comxittees were then read and were of much interest to the C. E. workers. At the close of the afternoon session all were invited to the opera bouse, where a supper had been prepared and in sucb a manner as only the I ladies' of Pinckney know how. The tables were laden with good things and while they did justice to the viands many friendships were renewed and new ones formed, which will be as lasting as eternity. EVENING 6BB8ION. The evening session brought out fully as large a crowd as in the afternoon and standing room was at par. ft was opened by a song service followed by a prayer by Rev.

Three (irregulars), commanded by ex-officers of the Greek army, exceedingly well equipped with arms and supplies, arossed the frontier In the very face of the Turkish,army. One band of the insurgents attacked the Turkish post at Phlnika and received a heavy musketry discharge in return and then they stormed the position,driving the Turks before them. The other two columns of insurgents encountered some opposition, but continued to move forward, and all three divisons converged slowly on Baltlno, a small village of about 30 houses, but a Turkish stronghold. During the movement they were constantly harrassed by a fusilade from the Turkish posts along the line, to which the Greek outposts replied" vigorously. The insurgents attacked Baltlno and a hot fight continued, during the entire day. At nightfall a portion of the insurgents moved upon and dynamited a Turkish post opposite Phonika. The following day the Turks in Baltino capitulated. The casualties on both sides were under 100. The insurgents continued to press on toward Gievena, the evident intention being to cut off Turkish i$oinmuoications between Macedonia and Epirus.

Further, they have fought their way close to Cipria, which is only two hours distant from Grevna, and have cut the Turkish telegraph lines. They now intend to take the heights about Grevna and there will harrass the Turkish army on the flank. This daring enterprise of 3,000 men, scarcely organized at all, piercing a trained army of 90,000 Turks will go down in history as one of the bravest acts of the century: What the effect of this fighting may be can scarcely be in doubt a moment. The Greek army ia becoming Impatient and would follow the lead of these bands of insurgents if the word was given. The Greek government disclaims all responsibility for the raid, yet it Is scarcely possible that such large bands could be organised for such a purpose without the government's knowledge. It ia known that the Ethnike Uetairia, the Greek patriotic society, backed sp> the venture with the hope of inciting all Greeks throughout Macedonia and Epirus to rise up against the Turks* The band of invaders was organized under the personal directions of Gonsos, a Greek of Alexandria,' The headquarters were in the valley of the mountainous district of Kelebaka, near the famous monasteries" of Me mora. The Turkish government is inclined to look npon the expedition as authorised by, or undertaken wish the fnll knowledge of, the Greek* government and therefore Edhem Pasha has sent orders to have everything in readiness for an advance of the Turkish army in force. Everything ia m excellent shape of preparation along the Turkish line. The transport service is excellent.

The House, got another rubatOov^ Pingree by passing over his veto the Flint oharter bill by a vote of 73 to 19. The House also passed the bill abolishing the fee system for all county officers, except sheriffs, Wayne and Kent counties alone exempted. It provides that all fees received by county officers shall be turned into the county treasuries and the boards of supervisors of the various counties affected shall fix the salaries of the officers at the last meeting of the board preceding an election.

Railroad bills have bod another inning in the Honae and this time the people's welfare induced a little more favorable consideration. Three bills were passed one step nearer completion by being agreed to in committee of the whole, but they have yet to receive the formal vote of approval before passing on to the Senate. The, most important of the biUeagreed to was the anti-discjriminatiott bill which in its latest form provides that ^rery shipper shall be entitled to- the lowest rate for the transportation of freight that such railroad gives to any other shipper on the same class of freight; providing, in case of a violation of this provision, that the shipper discriminated against may recover from the road before any justice of the peace in the eity or township where sueh ovej|e*erge& are made an amount equal to double the amount charged fo* the transportation of his freight and $50 additional. The bill originally provided a penalty for discrimination in passenger rates also, but this was killed. The other two bills provide that each railroad passenger shall be entitled to have one bicycle carried free as ordinary baggage, and compelling the railroad company to equip its cars with hooks, racks or appliances for storing wheels so as not to mar or scratch them, the company not to be responsible for the wheels except by the enreieesnees or negligence of ita employes; also requiring autome^kbeUsignamaterossrugstnat can be heard a distance of 90 rods away, upon the approach of a trainr Tee" of the railroad who is obliged to investigate any crossi n g s ^ ds^HS^w |pL to Jhenecessiy X 0 4 T ttttflaw*^aMCumwM "WfwmWnvwT^ffn • mayTJ X V o O m w W a l U * era, who nee each erosamg, petition tor i t The fight over these hills, particularly * w one agaiust diserianoa* tionSr was so long that all other buairowdad out for the daj^ when It recently paused toe tine coloring of butter to. imitate bntter (known bill) in seme way clause.

Kaormoos Losses la Mississippi From statements collected by the agricultural department relative t o the situation in the flooded district of the Mississippi Valley south of Cairo, IlL.itis known that the total area under water is over 15.800 sqnnre miles. This region contained a population of 370,685, of which 176,48ft, or about one^half, was in Mississippi, 100,335 in Arkansas, and the remainder almost equally divided between Missouri and Tennessee. The flooded districts contain about 39,500 farms. These farms contain a total area of about 3,800,000 acres. , The total value of these farms with their improvements is close upon §65,000,000. The live stock on hand Jan. lof the present' year jvas valued at more than 17,500,- 000. The total low by acres in crops alone will exceed #0,000,000. TheA steady increase in the amount of territory flooded and the possibility of serious breaks in the levees In Louisiana make this estimate of the lorn plenty low enough. •*r President McKinley be assistant secretary of war. >."» . * " * • > mttiiAfHce'r^.-^' &* :. •). tmtvim set is«tfr»4eau..fcosn*m '•>•>' s . a fsm Senate backed up , r ctnefcaw»si-~ ' ^ -JCt . * A' ,/- » — M -1^ S- *L.?' ipmp semfnvem igiTur mrniii •n mm MM * •» *V>-.\ j ..5*), '';'• *'.;, *••• iimnnTiin * • • • « * ; ; . . .>.'•; c ..;<*.: ;..;•;• s . ; :¾ i <#*$&'. ^ • ^ ••w 5 = *si*«Mi!»eieip*if|pf»^ .

Cries and sobs and prayers t heard, but inictly. aa though I were in connected no way with them; they scarcely seemed to form part of the tragedy ing enacted. When I recovered my senses my first endeavor was to get to my feet, but I found I was pinned to the deck, by reason of the mast having fallen across my body. I believed that I was otherwise unharmed, for it did not appear to me that any of my bones were broken. But I was in this miserable position—I was lying with my face to the deck, and I could not see a yard around me. A faint light betokened that the sun was rising, and was making its way even into the dismal eave tn'which our ship war snared; otherwise I should have been in total darkness. ' T sighed in bitterness of spirit; the cup of happiness was dashed from my lips; all hope was gone. I should die without a word of love from my wife; for no power in the world could, at that moment, have convinced me that she, with my boy, was not a >as8enger in The Rising Sun. Had I aot seen the likeness in little Bob's oeautlful face? Had I not heard my wife's voice in the dark terror of the night? All my efforts to raise the weight which held me to the deck, were vain, and I groaned aloud., "Are you al,ive, then, mate?" a voice asked.- 1 managed to stretch forth my hand, .and It reached the hand of a man who was pinned to the deck by the mast, aa I was. "Can you see?" I asked. "Yes; and that is all I can do." "Have you been conscious all the night?" "All the night, worse luck. I have been envying you." "You need not do so. In what position are we?" "The ship is sinking; in a few minutes we shall reach the water line." "And then?" He laughed bitterly. "You're no sailor, or you would not ask. And then?

"For heaven's sake," I implored, "-do not answer me in that reckless way. You have been conscious all the night, you say. Has anything been done with the boats?" "Yes.

Lord have mercy " And at that moment we were sucked down into the sea. With the last words he spoke, the ship had reached the water line, and sank in a wild whirl of waters. A prayer passed through my mind, and I believed my time had come. But the mast which had held me fastened to the deck now proved to be my salvation. Immediately the deck was below the water the mast floated off, leaving me free, and with the instinct of self-preservation 1 struck out lustily. I am a good swimmer, and shortly after I rose to the surface of the water my hands came upon a small piece of rock Jutting up from the sea. Not knowing its size or extent, I obtained a risky foothold upon it, and, dashing the waters from my eyes, I looked eagerly forward. Surely it was by a special act of Providence that, amidst the struggling heads and limbs of the hapless drowning persons around me, I saw but one face, which rose like an apparition from the water. It was Mabel's face, turned toward the rock to which I clung, and in that awful moment we recognized eaeh other. A look of convulsed joy, amazement, and terror—terror, as though she were gazing upon a being from another world —flashed into her eyes. Her arms were raised aloft, and in them was a child— my child, Bob! What was to be done in that dread moment of my life? If I plunged into the sea it would be fatal to ell of JOB, for the drowning persons would inevitably clutch at me and carry me down with them, I decided instantly upon my plan. With one arm round the sharp rock, which cut into my flesh—but I did not feel it—I partially lowered myself into the water, and held out my other arm, which I Judged would just reach Mabel, in the expectation that she would seise my hand and that I should be able to draw her to my rock of refuge. But as I laid my hand upon my boy, Mabel fell from me, or waa torn from me by a fierce wave, and sunk before my eyes.

Hundreds of bushels are being fed to stock but as farmers have more than they can feed they must sell or meet total loss of the crop. Says the San Francisco Beport: "That loquacious tout, Dan Lynch who has fastened himself on Sharkey as 'manager' knows less about prize fighting and boxing than a hog does about ice cream." That is,making a man out pretty low but how about the prize-fighters themselves? Four Brighton boys who had been reading cheap novels left home recently intending to make their way to the sunny south to make their fortune. When they reached ^.nn Arbor their inclinations for tramp life had ended; they returned home with no stories of southern scenery. An exchange says that a lawyer in the course of a trial, may call a man a liar, a scoundrel, a thief and impute to him all .crimes in the calendar without fear of being sued for slander or sought for with a gun; but \&l a newspaper print a reflection on a man's character or ability and there is a libel suit or a dead editor. The probeble explanation of this is that people believe what the editor says.

Truly man is hard to please. The honors and attentions showered upon General Grant during his tour of the world are, perhaps, unequaled in the history of kingly hospitality. He was received everywhere as che greatest soldiea of his time and as the foremost living American. Hon. J. Bussel Young, who accompanied General Grant throughout the famous journey, graphically recalls in the May Ladies' Home Journal, its conspicuous incident: the receptions, dinners, fetes, balls, etc., given in honor of the illustrious American. It is said that Mr. Young brings to light a fact that has received but^assing attention: that General Grant was instrumental in arranging the terms of a treaty of peace between China and Japan, which prevented an outbreak of war between those nations. That capital is not necessarily a hateful and oppressive thing is demonstrated by the use to which the Baroness Hirech proposes to put a portion of her immense means. Already expended for charitable institutions and educational purposes the sum of $2,400, 000 annually, the baroness has Appropriated an amount sufficient to buy land and put up a complete building for the Baron Hirsch trade school in New York, which has already been established. This philanthropic woman will also expend $1,000,000 for the erection of model houses for the poor in the crowded tenement district of New York or wherever the trustees of the firm may determine. Working girls will also be provided with homes on a plan similar to that which she has followed in foreign cities.

In order to be sure of being right they are going to drink copiously upon both occasions. These thirsty souls hope that the present' controreray will not be settled before the twentieth century arrives, and even find comfort in the figures of a man which introduce an altogether different date and would provide occasion for a third welcoming celebration. Unfortunately there is a lack of testimony on the part of gentlemen who lived in the year 1 as to whether or not chronologists at that time had any agreement as to what they were going to do about the extra year. If the first century ended with the close of the year.99 then it was-a year short.

As Lord Mulgrave, he evinced great interest in educating and training boys. As a teacher he began with the care of private pupils during his winterings on the Riviera. He continued the work at Mulgrave Cottage,, and finally, since succeeding to the marquisate in 1890, has carried it on at his ancestral castle. In the spacious courtyard a school room 60 feet long, 30 feet broad and 2$ feet high has been built, and beyond this a chapel. Two old riding schools and other outbuildings have been transformed into a gymnasium, fives court and carpenter's shop, while close at hand are playing fields and bathing ground. These latter are screened from t h e castle lawns by thick shrubberies, and In the distance are the deer park and endless stretches of grouee moors belonging to the estate. The number of pupils does not exceed the limits of a single house at Eton, and at meal times Lord Normandy presides OVer his young charges-and the members of bis staff in the old dini«^ h-H. i^CUTS |H BURMS B BRUISES E3 Stacally Recommended tor PILES. p Quick i> itefk've Pain and fteduce InflarnmHtlon. p ( Guai •.-'ct-tl to give wUlsfuctiun; wlwu you need if Mire to get C u a h m a u ' s M e u t b o l 'V'V^V^VWVVVNKWHJIQKIIQVftNVffiKOQVCVVV?

On this airy summit, 250 feet above the earth, Ijt 1B the delight of the amorous swain, to take his sweetheart and far away from the madding crowd's ignoble strife kiss her to his heart's content, with none to molest or make him afraid. The ribald small boy and the derisive young man, although armed with powerful field glasses, are as if they were not. All criminologists agree that Indirect suggestion is one of the surest waya of inciting to crime; and an eminent' French writer has published a volume; on the "Contagion of Murder," in which he traces cases of homicidal mania induced by pictures of assassination. The regular reader of many modern newspapers might imagine that the world Is much worse than it used to be: This would be a mistake. The difference is not only that the newspapers exaggerate, and sometimes invent details of crime, but that the facilities for collecting news are so much better than formerly that everything is reported. There is no part of the newspapers of the day which can be more profitably skipped than the detailed narratives of crime; and newspapers which make a specialty of the evil there Is in the world should not be taken into any home. Aa Instancing the antagonistic attitude of Austria to all American articles/ Consul-General Max Judd, at Vienna, calls the attention of the State Department to an intended tariff measure preventing further importation of glucose into Austria-Hungary. All producers of glucose in Austria have formed a trust. The market price of syrup has been made by them 21 florins (18.44)' par 100 kilograms (220.40 pounds). This price baa enabled American oorducars to sell their syrup, which la even better in quality, at a lower figure. Ike trust, seeing themselves undersold, have now urged the government to assist them, and have succeeded in the effort The doty on glueose or syrup has been six florins in gold ($2.W) on 100 kilograms (220.40 sounds).

Russia, Washington is to the United States republic. *%$VfJH The people who ^ live here see more of the chief men of the nation than any who live anywhere else between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. If a senator, or member of the house of representatives, or Supreme Court justice, or secretary of the cabinet, or representative of foreign nation enters a public assembly In any other city, his coming and going are remarked upon, and unusual deference is paid to him. In this capital there are so many political chieftains in our churches, our streets, our halls, that their coming and going make no excitement. The Swiss seldom look up to the Matter horn, or Jungfrau, or Mt Blanc, because those people are used to the Alps. So we at this capital are so accustomed to walk among mountains of official and political eminence that they are not to us a great novelty. Morning, noon and night we meet the giants. But there is no place on earth where the importance of the Pauline Injunction to prayer for those in eminent place ought to be better appreciated. At this time, when our public men have before them the rescue of our national treasury from appalling deficits, and the Cuban question, and the Arbitration question, and in nufjy departments men are taking important positions which are to them new and untried, I would like to quote my text with a whole tonnage of emphasiswords written by the sacred missionary to the young theologian Timothy: "I exhort, therefore, that, first of all, supplication, prayers, Intercessions and giving of thanks be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are In authority." If I -have the time, and do not forget some of them before I get through, I will give you four or five reasons why the people of the United States ought to make earnest and continuous prayer for those in eminent place. First, because that Will put ua In proper attitude toward the successful men of the nation. After you have prayed for a man you will do him justice. There is a bad streak in human nature that demands us to assail those that are more successful than ourselves. It shows Itself in boyhood, when the lads, all running to get their ride on the back of a carriage, and one gets on, those failing to get on shout to the driver, "Cut behind!" Unsuccessful men seldom like those who In any department are successful. The cry is, "He Is a political accident," or "He bought his way up," or "It just happened so," and there Is an Impatient waiting for him to come down mnxs rapidly than he went up. The best cure for such cynicism is prayer. After we have risen from our knees we will be wishing the official good instead of evil. We will be hoping for him benediction rather than malediction. If he makes a mistake we will call it a mistake instead of malfeasance in office. And, oh! how much happier we will be; for wishing one evil is diabolic, but wishing one good is saintly, Is angelic, is God-like. When the Lord drops a man into depths beyond which there is no lower depth he allows him to be out on an tnveati- Aaathar raaaou. why we should pray tor uUout tfc eminent place is beoaug* they ha*e much muKlpl^perplexJttea Tu> < ^ at tails Mmsholdtnukdress of men wuo are expsctaojt at prefettneaa, and JtaLt** States maalbaga, i t oftur heftre, are full of appBcation* Let me say I have no e m - pathy wtta either the uttered or printed sneer at what are called "office*. seekers."

In general assemblies of the*Presbyterian Ohnrch, in conferences of the Methodist Church, in conventions of the Episcopal Church, In House Of Representatives, and in Senate ef United States there are men always glad to be appointed on ttie Committee of Malodors, while there are those who are glad to be put on tine Committee of BhUogisms. After you have prayed, in the words of any test forattduat aret gentlemen, Mr, man, excuse, me from serving on the OonuuKtie at Matadors, for last night.

Beside that, many of UB have been paying taxes to city, and state, and nation, for years, and* while we are Indebted for the protection of government the government is indebted to us for the honest support we have rendered It So I wish success to all earnest and competent.men who appeal to city or state or nation for a place to work. But how many men in high place in city, and Btate, and nation, are at their wits' end to know what to do, when for some places there are ten applicants and for others a hundred! Perplexities arise from the fact that citizens sign petitions without reference to the qualifications of the applicant for the places applied for. You\lgn the application because/ the applicant is your friend. People sometimes want that for which they have no qualification, as we hear people sing "I want to be an angel," when they offer the poorest material possible for angelhood. Boors waiting to be sent to foreign palaces as ambassadors, and men without any business qualification wanting to be consuls to foreign ports, and illiterates, capable In one letter of wrecking all the laws of orthography add syntax, desirjng to be put Into positions where mostT>f~ the work is done by correspondence, rf divine help is needed Fn any place In the world It is In those pteees where patronage is distributed. In years gone by awful mistakes have been made. Only God, who made the world out of chaos, could, out of the crowded pigeon-holes of public men, develop symmetrical resultB. For this reason pray Almighty God for all those in authority. Then there are the vaster perplexities of our relations with foreign governments. For directions in such affairs the God of Nations should be Implored. The demand of the people is sometimes , so heated, so unwise, that it must not be heeded. Hark to the boom of that gun which sends from the American steamer San Jactnito a shot across the bow of the British 'merchant steamer Trent, November 8, 1861. Two distinguished southerners, with their secretaries and famlles, are on the way to England and France to officially enlist them for the southern confederacy. After much protest the commissioners, who had embarked for England and France, surrendered, and were taken to Fort Warren, near Bos- Uon. The capture was a plain invasion of the laws of nations, and antagonistic to a principle for the establishment of which the United States government had fought in other days. However, so great was the excitement that the secretary of the United States navy wrote an applaudltory letter to Captain Wilkes, comrfaxider of the San Jacinto for his "prom^A and decisive action," and the House* of Representatives passed a resolution of thanks lor "brave, adroit and patriotic conduct," and the millions of the north went wild with enthusiasm, and all the newspapers and churches joined In the huzza. England and France protested, the former demanding that unless the distinguished prisoners should be surrendered and apology made for Intuit to the British flag wfittfhtiinn tteenn days, Lord Lyons must return to London, taking all the archivei of the British legation. War' with England and France seemed inevitable, and Twar with England and France at thai tame would have made a restored Ameflcan nation impossible for a long while, if not forever. Then Gtad came to the rescue and helped the president' and hla secretary of state. Against the almost unanimous sentiment of the peopU nfHtfi north tit* distinguished <xmfederataa were aurrunuaaau, the law of nations was kept inviolate, the lien's paw was not lifted to'strike tut Ibagle'e beak, and perhaps the worst flla- -'-*— of centuries wsa avoided. - You aee tnvere are always In places of authority unbalanced men who went war, because they do nut realise what war is, or they art designing want wreckers like hurricanes, *ad foundering ships, because of what may float ashore from the ruins.

Spain or England or Turkey, had been ^successful in bringing on the wholeaale murder, they themselves would now have been above ground, as I hope they will be, to celebrate the birth of the twentieth century. If God had not interfered we would have had three wars within the last two years—war with England, war with Spain, and war with Turkey, this last joined by other 'nations Translantic. To preserve the peaceful equipoise which audh men are disturbing, we need a divine balancing, for v^hich all good men on both sides the sea ought to be overy day praying. Again, prayer to God foa those In authority is our only way of being of any" practical servjee Jp them, , pur personal advice would be to them, for the most part, an Impertinence. They have all the facts as > e cannot have them, and they see the subject in all it a bearings, and we can be of no help to them except through the supplication that our text advises. In that way wo may be infinite reinforcement The mightiest thing you can do for a man is to pray for him. If the, old Bible be true, and if it is not true it has been the only imposition that ever blessed the world, turning barbarism into civilisation and tyrannies into republics,— I say if the old Bible be true, God answers prayer. You may get a letter, and through forgetfulneas or lack of time not answer it, hut. God never gets a genuine letter that he does not make reply. Every genuine prayer is a child's letter to his Heavenly Father, and he will answer it; and though you may get many letters from your child before yon respond, some day you say: "There! I have received ten letters from my daughter, and I will answer them all now and-at once, and though not in just tbe way she hopes for, I will do It In the best way, and though she asked me for a sheet of music, I will not give it to her, for I do not like the music spoken of; but I will send her a deed to a house and lot, to be hers forever/' So God does not in all cases answer in the way those who sent the; prayer hoped tor. but he in all cases gives what is asked for or something better. So prayers went up from the North and the South at the time of our civil war and they were all* answered at Gettysburg. You cannot make me believe that God answered Only ' the Northern prayers, for there were just as devout prayers answered south of Mason and Dixon's line aa north of it, and God gave what was asked for, or something as much more valuable, as a house and lot are worth more than a sheet of music. There is not a good and intelligent man between the Gulf of Mexico and the St Lawrence river, who does not believe that God did the best thing possible when he stood this nation down in 1865 a glorious unity, never to be rent until the waters of the Ohio and the Savannah^ the Hudson and the Alabama, are licked up by the long, red tongues of a world on fire. Yea! God sometimes answers prayers on a large scale. In worse predicament nation never was than tbe Israelitlsh nation on the banks of the Red Sea, the rattling shields and the clattering hoofs of an overwhelming host close after them. An army could just aa easily wade through the Atlantic Ocean, from New York to Liverpool, as the Israelites could have waded through the Red Sea. You need to sail on its waters to realize how big it Is. How was the crenwing^effected? By prayer. Exodus 14, 16: "And the Lord said unto Moaea, Wherefore crieat thpu unto me? Speak; unto tha children of Israel, that they go for-» ward," That is, "Stop praying- and take th£ answer."

The council of ministers also decided to recall Assim Bey, the Turkish minister at Athens, and give passports to Prince Naurocordato, the Greek minister at Constantinople. Athens: The Greek cabinet has decided to protest to the powers against the aggressive action of Turkey. An invasion by Edheai Pas.hu, the Turkish commander, is expected, and the Greek army has taken up positions for the purpose of being in readiness to repel the advance. Qrders were sent to the Greek troops to keep strictly on the defensive, but to maintain their positions at all costs. A late special sitting of the legislative assembly was held and the public galleries were crowded. Amid intense excitement M. Delyannis, the premier, announced that the Turkish government had notified Greece of the rupture of diplomatic relations on the ground of the aggressive attitude of the Greek government. "Turkey," said M. Delyannis, "declares war against us. We accept it." This statement was received with prolonged cheers from the galleries and the floor of the chamber. An official dispatch from Larissa says-that the Turks, under cover of darkness, assaulted the Greek forces at Mount Analipsis with great fierceness.

At Neaero the Turks attempted to occupy a strategic position in the neutral sons, and this the Greeks could not permit Thereupon the Turks opened fire, the Greeks replying, and the fight lasted from early in the eve-' nlng until midnight and ended in a repulse of Jfche Turks. The next morning the Turks again attempted to occupy the same strategic position and again they were repulsed. Athens: The Turkish batteries at Prevess, on the north shore of the entrance of the Gulf of Arta, fired on and sank a Greek steamer, the Macedonia. The crew was saved by boats, but the captain was severely woundedrtTpon receipt of this news the Greek fleet in the Gulf ot Ambracia bombarded Prevesa, which is In Epirus, 18 miles from Arta, and is strongly fortified. A force of 2,000 Greek troops also crossed the Gulf of Arta from Vonitza to Salagora ^nd marched upon Prevesa. Later—All the forts except one, which is the strongest, have been destroyed at Prevesa. by the bombardment of the Greek fleet. The Asty (Athens newspaper) says the Greek troops have occupied tbe citadel at Prevesa and it is believed the Turks are bombarding Vonitza. London: A dispatch to the Chronicle from Ath< is, says the Greeks have captured Menexe after severe fighting. The losses were very heavy on both sides.

This last bill has already passed the Senate and is given immediate effect as soon as it is signed by the governor. The Goodbill for the branding of all baking powders with a list of the ingredients comprising them was killed in the Senate. Some horrible examples of the results of cigarette smoking were related in the House when the anti-cigarette bill was under consideration. The bill as amended fixes penalties of from $10 to $100 fine and 30 to 90 days imprisonment for the act of giving or selling tobacco in any form to minors under 17 years of age and like penalties for selling or giving cigarettes, dgarette paper or other materials to any minor under 31 years of age.

The powers of Europe are said to be considering the expediency of ordering the international fleets to leave Cretan waters and to go in tbe direction of Salonica and the Dardanelles .to eratoa the fighting with s view to localising it if necessary, by naval Intervention. There is said to be a sharp difference of opinion between the military powers, Russia. Austria-Hungary and Germany, and the maritime powers, Great Britain, France and Italy, as to the most expeditious method of compelling a cessation of hostilities, should this not be done through diplomatic pressure a t Athens and Constantinople.

Cold as our hearts were before, they were colder now.

Of the hundred and sixteen souls who set sail in The Rising Sun, only twelve were saved. There being no ship's officer among those who were rescued, I was solicited to take- the command. It had become known that I had commanded a vessel, and the position was offered to me as being mine by right. I accepted it for all our aakes, believing that I should be able to fulfill -Its duties in a proper manner. Bui I told them that I could do noioing that night, with the exception of taking down their names. * "My heart is too full, my lads," I said, with a great effort to keep my voice steady, "to think of anything else w 1 s r i !

"The best thing we can do now, mates," said one, Tom Wren by name, a reckless man, whose cur3e was drink, "is to lay down and die." We did' not answer him, but stood around each other with despairing soulsf'and one or two looked up to the ! sky, as though hoping that sparks of fire would drdp from the clouds into bur hands. And one of the men began'to wander in tils mind, and commenced to sing in a hoarse voice about the "sweet little -chernb that sits up aloft to watch o'er the life of poor Jack." Well, well, that sweet little chernb did not desert poor Jack, after all, for suddenly a sailor gave a scream of joy, and cried out that he had found xa match in his pocket. Only one—but our lives hung on that little bit of Wood. He was about to take tt from his pocket, when violent hands were laid upon him. "Keep it from the damp, for tfod's sake!" we cried. "If it get* wet, we're lost men." An island filled with Jewels could not have bought that match from us. We sat about collecting dry wood, and tearing it into thin shreds, and after selecting a sheltered spot, our fast skin was used la building up the * bile Which weheted soon to see biasing. There was an anaieev discussion as to who should strike the match, and ft %** proposed that I should do it; but my nerves were so much shaken Chat I did not dare. One volunteered, and to him it was -entrusted. We stood around him la a dose circle, to prevent the-wind frert getting to him, and many a sHeot'i>rayer went up for the success of' the last he'haft undertaken. It was a solemn moment, that, let me tell you, and would have tried the nerves of the bravest man. He was successful, and we watched with thankful heart* the jets of flame playing fwnwg the thin strips of bark. We stooped over it and drew warmth to %J^\™ our bodies; and one man whey while w *™Te the match was being lighted, had stood as if he were petrified, danced. about the i n like an imp of the devdU "Mr. Fairley is going mad, I dp believu," said a sailor.

I I then, taking from my pocket a ; small raemorandam book which I had 1 by me, desired them to step forward, one by one, and give me their names, : anil what they were. "I will place my name first," I said; and I did so, they calling out their names in the order here set down: Amos Beecroft James Bowden. Benjamin Starley. Fred Cliveley. Tom Wren. Alfred Mixture. James Lovegood. Ralph Fortyman. Richard Tippler. ; Patrick Bloom. ; Robert Smith. It did not speak well for the crew of The Rising Sun that these men were all sailors; but they attempted to justify themselves afterward by saying that life was sweet. "One man has not answered," I said. "There are twelve of us. Here are.but eleven names." A sailor answered that Mr. Fairley, the saloon passenger, had gone away immediately I commenced to write the names. We had no time then to look after., him, and I did not attach much importance to his leaving HM. I selected a spot where my poor little Bob was to be buried, and two of the sailors dug a grave while I prepared the body. There is no need to speak of my ?r!>f while thus employed; you will understand it without any words of mine. The men coming back to say the grave was ready, I took my dead boy in my arms, and we walked slowly o^er the uneven ground. The night being dark, my comrades had cut branches from a resinous tree, and carried them lighted in their hands to show the way. Not a word was spoken in that solemn inarch until we reached The shadows brought out by the lighted branches seemed as though they had life in them, and more than once I fancied I saw moving creatures darting from rock to rock, and as suddenly disappearing. We had no prayer boob/among us, but I said as much as I knew of theuhnrial service, first over my little Bob, and then for Pearl, of whom, as my hoy's friend and companion, I thought with tender interest. After which, at the request of the men, I repeated the service for all who had been lost in the wild waters. These sad duties being performed, my comrades, with a tender cotisJdecation, softly withdrew our u-ate thsmtht of the morrow weuUkod in tow, sad •« sail with us fu*Vj and nopuT »«Wtt»w 4y*n* s>**-a*<Kwonty a* tfee bottom of the cruel ^tsV Sacfrtettef wna*h«hadae«aof who 'v w< as 1 say holpkos beneath deep inave said that 11 Qasorthet of the cave, of it I knelt by my hoy's grave, and s#ent a few minutes in mental prayer.

The tide was eorning -to/ and the weather had cleared; but it was still dark, and there waa no light on tne waters. I knew, however, that in an hour or so the moon would rise, and I thought that I would wait for it —for what particular reason I can say; but it came Into my bead, and the good Lord put it there, perhaps Being by myself alone, the fancy came upon me that I waa the only man left in the world. I could not hear a sound but the soft lapping of the waves as they rolled inshore, as they had rolled on this self-same spot thousands and thousands of years ago, and as they would roll for thousands and thousands more, till they rolled into eternity. We get thoughts now and again that we can not plumb, and can not take the measure of. If I were to set down the notions that came into my head as I walked up and down that solemn shore, you would hardly believe that I was not drawing on my imagination. I thought that the world was dead; that light was gone out of it for ever and ever; that it would be always night, world without end; and that sun, moon and stars would never shine again. I stopped and listened to the waves till, to my fevered fancy, they spoke a language that I could understand; and as I stood still to listen to the unspoken words, which made me shudder, so awful were the suggestions they conveyed, that fear came upon me that if I did not move, and move quickly, I should be turned into stone, with ears to hear and eyes to see, but with all power of motion gone forever. Then, as I forced myself to pace the shore, the waves again whispered to me, asking me to join them, and so put an end to everything; but I flung away the temptation and cried, "Never, never, never!" and trembled at the sound of my own voice, as if it were some strange monster that was speaking and'not myself. And then came other fancies. Shadows formed themselves into the semblance of places I was familiar with, into the shapes of men and women I had known. I saw them m> plainly that at first I believed them to be real. There rose the little cottage v at Brixton, with "Beecroft Mariner," over the window, and my mother standing at the door looking down the street for me. That picture faded and melted Into another: I and the child Mabel were together, I holding a shell to her ear, and she gaslng in pleasant wonder into my shadowy face; then came that villain Druce, and with him a dark mist of blood before my eyes, which blotted out the pictures and put an end to them. I shook myself roughly and turned aside to meet other fancies. About a hundred yards to the left was a high sandrock, and as I turned^ toward it, I saw three old women,, for all the world like witches, with pointed chins, and with crooked saplings in their hands. They were pointirg with their long, bony fingers at something that lay at their feet I had once seen three witches in a play, dancing round a caldron, and these were like them. I waited for the fire to spurt up from the ground, and for themselves to commence to dance; but they stood quite still and motionless, bending toward each other so that their chins almost touched. I made a few steps forward—slowly and cautiously, for I did not know what kind of creature* might he Mviag on these wild and I own to bain*; I discovered that the three old wkehea were three bit* of aerubhy twigs sticking up out of the eand-rock. the other aide of the reek I startled me in real earaeet, and well my senees away.

Thomas Stevens, one of the Brown murderers, who was recently sentenced to life imprisonment py Judge Beach, made the follow ing statement to Bev. WhitforoToT Oaro, which he desired to be given publicly for the good it might dp: "It is only ten months ago since I was a good christian man, but fell from grace into bad company and by going with evil companions I am sent to prison! for life, My .very heart goes out to warn you of drink and bad company and my advice to young men is to live a good life. If you wish to be happy in this world and the world to come give your hearts to God and do his will. You have heard of my sentence and of others but you don't realize the torture of a life sentence. O! young men don't lead a wicked life any longer, for the wages of sin are death. From the bottom of my heart I beg an interest in all Christian prayers. These are the sentiments of my very heart." company. Think of ope man worth 8140,000,000 and having an income of $1,000,000 a month. He got it buying courts, legislatures and common councils, and he endowed a church college to square himself with the Lord. Why I'd as soon think of putting my boy in a store to sell stolen goods as to send him to that college."— Hazen S.

Brimtaidhvickhillichattan is the name of a small hamlet in the Isle of Mull containing not more than a dozen inhabitants. How they pronounce it is a mystery only to be solved by some one acquainted with Gaelic, but the fact that the Scots are a nation of few words seems easy to explain if they have many such words as the above in their language. A sample of Welsh nomenclature is Mynddwllyn, which is the name of a parish close to Cardiff, while another of the same kind is Llanfai rp w) lgwngy 11. Perhaps, however, the Germans may be fairly said to carry off the palm in word coining. How is this for a sample, Constantinopeliacherdndelsackpfeifer, or this one Jungfrauenzirameeidurchschwindersnchtoedungs? The first means a Constantinopolitan bagpipe player, and the last is the name of a young ladies' club which adorns the brass plate of the door of a house in Cologne to this day. Babelias gi^tft^the following name to a particular book which was supposed to be in the libary of Pantagruel's medical student friend Victor, "Antipericatametanaparibeugedantecribrationestoordicanticum," while Anantchaturdasivratakatba is an actual Sanscrit word to be found in any Sanscrit dictionary, and the word Clttninstaridysarchedes occurs in the works of Plautus, the Latin comedy writer.—Harpers Bound Table.

Whether the Belgian people in general will readily fall in with an innovation of this kind remains to be seen; but already men are at work repainting the fac&i of all the official clocks, and in places like railway stations, post-offices, etc., the dials now bear, within the old circle of Bomatt- figures, another formed of Arabic figures from 13 to 24. This will help one over the difficulty of translating the afternoon and evening hours in jo the terms of the new system, or rather the old one revived, and the advocates of the change are hopeful that it will soon be possible for every one to say «16 o'clock" or "22 o'clock" with preforming a problem in mental arithmetic.—Ex.

" President Cleveland, while not a frequent visitor to New York, nevertheless has been here several times during his present administration, says the New York Tribune. He usually Is joined by Dr. Bryant and Mr. Benedict and likes a social chat or an evening at the theater. On a recent trip he was a visitor at one of the theaters and aeemed to enjoy the play as much as any one. Despite the plaints about Mr. Cleveland's exclusive ways and lack of cordiality, a vein of humor runs through his conversation at times. A good story is told about his visit to New York when he made an address for the Presbyterian board of missions. Apartments had been reserved for him at a big hotel. This hotel is controlled by men who also own a hotel in Buffalo. Long before Mr. Cleveland ever thought of becoming president or these men decided*' to venture into the hotel business in New York Mr. Cleveland was a cltlten of Buffalo of no great renown and Mr. Wbitaker was a country hotel proprietor with a small hotel. When Mr. Cleveland stepped forth into the broad arena of national politics Mr. Wbitaker also became ambitious and secured control of a big hotel in Buffalo. He was successful and later acquired control of one in Philadelphia and in this city. When Mr. Cleveland reached the hotel on this occasion he was met at the door by Mr. Wbitaker. It was the first time they ha.4 met since the old days in Buffalo. The president shook him by the hand and, glancing around at the magnificence of the hotel, said, in a cheery way: "You seem to have prospered." "Well," said Mr. Whitaker, dryly, "you have got along tolerably well yourself." The president laughed heartily.

There are dosena of species of flies (mostly tropical) whtcb never indulge in slumber, and from three to five species of serpents on each of the continents which the naturalists have never yet been able to catch napping. Many years ago a theory founded on the observations of Leuwenhoek, Sir John Lubbock, and others was to the effort that the Ant la another of the insects that are never caught asleep.

The practice is a menace to health, and,- as the buyer does not get what he purchases, It is a swindle.

The municipality.has been paying $2 a visit to certain designated doctors for responding to emergency calls when the patients were too poor to pay the fee themselves. This arrangement proved somewhat expensive, so that the prefect of police changed the basis of pay and paid the doctors a salary of (120 a year. In some districts this was satisfactory as there were not many indigent persons. It was discovered that some official physicians were com pell ed under the new system, to make visits for about 50 cents each, and, as a result there was a strike among the doctoral The Paris Medical Syndicate will be asked to aid the doctors in tsteir fight against reduction in fees. The frequent newspaper accounts of accidental shoooting are usually accompanied by the plea that the perpetrator did not know the gun was loaded. One efficient precaution, which may serve as an example, was early taught to ex-President Rutherford B. Hayes. He had been promised a gun on bis fourteenth birthday on the condition that he should never point it, loaded or unloaded, at any person. The long-expected day arrived. A beautiful little rifle was placed in his hands, and beside himself with joy, the boy took instant aim at the giver* exclaiming, "Look oat, grandma, 111 snoot you!" The gift was Immediately recalled tor six months, by which time the bitter bvt important lesson was Beats* French statistics show that while ts* Masrter of eduk erissiaals iailawea per cent daring the last years, the number between the of sixten and twnty twsnty-tve per oast In half ct (fee orinUaais arrested ate MB ,QhkQ; flxperjment Station Has used several methods of treatment and two of then* w e r e u n i formly aucceeaful. A third method reduces fcfce smut one-half to three-fourths. The successful methods are immersing the teed for 10 to 16 minutes in scalding water—temperature of water 132 to 133 degrees F„ and soaking the teed from 18 to 20 hours in a solution of potassium sulfld (liver of sulfur) made by dissolving one and one-half pounds of the sulfld in twenty-five gallons of water. This solution should be kept in a wooden vessel. In the hot water treatment the teed is placed In a wire mesh vessel or in an open gunny bag and then immersed. Ten minutes treatment gave the same results as fifteen minuteB, while the longer did no Injury. With the potassium sulfld method the grain is covered directly by the liquid and allowed to remain for the time stated. In both cases the seed will need to be dried to sow in the drill, but may be sown broadcast while still wet. Details of these methods will be found in Bulletin 64 of the Ohio Experiment Station. Another method was tried in 1896. It consists in treating the seed oats In piles by sprinkling with a solution of potassium sulfld from a watering can with rose. The grain must be repeatedly stirred during treatment and the sprinkling is done also at Intervals of an hour. By this sprinkling method the smut was reduced from 12 per cent to 1 per cent in one case; from 28 per cent to 10 per cent in another. Hot water and sulfld soaking treatments of the same seed reduced the smut to 1-10 of one per cent and 6-10 of one per cent ofsmut respectively. It wyi be seen^hatrthe sprinkling method Is not so complete a prevention' as the hot water and soaking methods.' The details of the sprinkling method are as follows: Dissolve one pound of fresh potassium sulfld in fifteen and one-half gallons of water in a wooden vessel. This solution will be enough to treat 600 pounds or fifteen and onehalf bushels of seed oats. M other words, every gallon of the mixture, made as directed, will treat one bushel of oats. Place the oats In piles of five to eight bushels upon a tight floor and sprinkle with the sprinkler every hour until the liquid Is used. Just enough should be applied so that none goes to waste. The seed should be welfstlrred between sprinklngs. After all the solution has been applied, the oats should lie not more than six Inches deep and should be thoroughly stirred twice a day. It is best sown about two to three days after treatment. Manifestly the seed will be swollen and must be applied in a larger quantity per acre. The attention to the condition of the seed after treatment and before sowing is evidently as exacting as for the hot water or soaking methods. The preference of the Experiment Station is for the not water method as most effective and at the same time most practicable. This sprinkling reatment is stated for the benefit of any who desire to use it. There ia no method of seed treatment that does not involve labor.

Many more can be packed in a case for shipping in this way* and heavy transportation charges (thus avoided. It has been long the thought of the writer that by far too much value Is plated o& the root fibers; and distinction should be made between the true roots and root fibers. The fiber Is practically only a thread-like production which pushes out of the main roots in large quantities. They live only for one year, just as the leaf does, and they can be of very little practical use to a tree In transplanting. The success of a transplanted tree comes from the new production of these fibers. The food of a tree it taken in by the root hairs, which are produced at the end of these little threads, and, unless there it a new production of these fibers, the tree will not grow. What is needed in a successful transplanting is an abundance of two or three-year-old roots, and not annual fibers. It is this which makeB a transplanted tree much more of a success than one not transplanted. When the large old roots are shortened, and a number of new, true roots proceed, this is the class of roots desirable, If there are a number of this class to the main stem of the plant, we should be apt to regard all the other mass of very old roots and half-dead fibers as being in the way of success rather than to aid it. For trees generally, Mr. Stringfellow's method will not be adopted, but the thought is useful in showing us the absurdity of many of our old views.

The Country Gentleman calls atteni tlon to the test of a Connecticut farmer of the value of irrigation on sandy soil. By the aid of rams water is elevated from a valley brook to a reservoir at the top of the hill. From here it is distributed to leading points on the farm in two and one-half Inch pipes, and from these old discarded fire hose is used to distribute the water over the fields. Wooden troughs in twelve-foot sections feed into each other, and are easily moved about the fieldB. These are set at proper grades wherever wanted, and the water turned into them through the hose. By a series of little gates along the trough water is allowed \o run down to rows of melons, strawberries or asparagus, the flow being regulated so as to run freely, but without washing. This year, wishing to carry over some old strawberry beds for fruiting another season, Mr. Eddy cleared the rows, narrowed them to eight or ten inches, and turned on the water. The beds ,,took on a new, strong growth, and are as nearly perfect as can be. Then, to extend the plantations, runners from new beds, as new plants developed, were taken up with little or no root and thickly lined out in rows a foot apart, the water put trickling down the rowe so as to keep them moist all the time, and the little runners went at once to work making strong, new plants with abundance of fibrous roots. Celery, cabbage and other crops are treated in like manner. ^ _.. have Jse5ta told lor yssTi.sn-^1 nsTtsivealssdsieelslf tatitbeysrvtiMWOsUeli Irrofitlsr Menses, »> gi»k> Weakness ttt. ...

The ttjrrionltural appropriation bilt was passed without amendment. The bankruptcy bill was formally laid before the Senate and in the course of the debate, Mr. Allen, of Nebraska, announced that he would obstruct in every way possible any bankruptcy bill which included involuntary bankruptcy, A resolution by Mr. Cullom, of Illinois, requested the secretary of the treasury for information as to the effect of the present internal revenue tax on the honest production of distilled spirits and to what extent illicit distillation had occurred, Mr. Cullom stated that he understood one-third of the highwines produced in this country came from illicit distillation. No session of the House. SENATE.—JJ7tb day.—Senator Mason, of Illinois, made his maiden speech, signalizing it by some breezy criticisms on the rules of the Senate. It was in support of a resolution introduced by the Illinois senator directing the committee on rules to report a rule by which debate could be closed and the previous question ordered. In this connection Mr. Mason sarcastically referred to the inaction of the Senate on all great questions before it. It was time, he said, to Bend the Senate into dry-dock and rid it of accumulated barnacles. Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, replied briefly, pointing out that the other branch of congress was more open to criticism than the Senate. He was in accord with Mr. Mason, however, on the need of new rules. The resolution was referred to the rules committee and it will be discussed at greater length later. The bankruptcy bill occupied most of the day. It was agreed that a committee of 15 senators should represent the Senate at the coming Grant memorial ceremonies. HOUSE.—A 10-minute session was held and the House adjourned as a mark of respect to Rep. Milliken, of Maine, recently deceased. O r s e e o - T a r k W a r N e w s . A battle at Milouna pass, which the Turks desired to hold, was very fierce and resulted in the Turks capturing two Greek blockhouses, and gaining control of the pass. The carnage was fearful as the fighting lasted over 24 hours... The Turkish forces attempted to force the pass of Bevenl and advance upon Larissa, but the Greeks, 14,000 strong, in three divisions, turned them back and nearly captured Edhem Pasha, the Turkish commander. The Greeks reports that the Turks lost 7,000 in killed and wounded while the Greeks loos was much less. Notwithstanding the fact the Bulgaria, Servia and Montenegro have agreed not to take part in the Greek- Turkish fight the Turkish government has called upon Bulgaria, as the vassel of Turkey, to hand passports to all the Greek consuls in Bulgaria. Dispatches from Athens say that notwithstanding the disaster to the Greek force a t Milouna pass the Greeks are not diaheartened,owing to successes at Beveni and vicinity. Bevenl is 12 miles northwest of the Greek headquarters. Tyrnavo and Damaai are near by and all three of these points were the aeeaes of terrible lighting. The Turks drove the Greek* from Tyrnavo. but it was later recaptared by Che Greeks who nave also established themselves firmly in Damaai. B d a y a Paaka, with a force of 14,000 Turkish troops, led seven aeeauHs agamat Bevenl, but all were repaised. c\ - Col.

Many the man of wealth who would exchange his bank account for a back that was free from burdens. Many the poor man that would not hesitate to give" his hard earned savings for a new back. A bad back is a bad thing. Hard to struggle along day after day with a back that aches so that life is a misery. More people have backache than any other affliction and it's constantly on the increase. You see, the Public do not seem to know how to get rid of it. They don't understand the cause. opular education on the subject has progressed wonderfully of late, due to the workings of the little enemies to backache. It is becoming clearer that the back aches because the kidneys are sick and most pains or weakness of the back are due to failure of the kidneys to perform their work. When this is generally known lame back will not be so common and many homes will be happier for i t It's a very easy matter to make a good back out of a bad one and it doesn't require much gold to do it at that. Silver answers all purposes. A 50-cent piece invested in a box of DOAN'S KIDNEY PILLS will do it every time—that is If you take the Pills. Here is proof of this in the testimony of Michigan people: [A Lansing Veteran.J Well known in Lansing is Mr. W. W.

T. where they remained until 1824, then came to Michigan, settling in Marion on the farm now occupied by her jean Leonard Haynes. Her husband joined the array and was killed May 5,1864, in the "Battle of the Wilderness." In 1873 she became a resident of Pinckney where she has since made it her home. Although quite feeble and nearly blind fihe retained her mental faculties to a high degree, until Friday proceeding her death when she was strickeu with paralysis, since then her life, like a candle, gradually flickered out.

The fact that South Lyon is the best trading point for family necessities ii proven by the liberal patronage she is now drawing for a distance of eight and ten miles* that too when other trading points are much nearer.—Excelsior. Pinckney once enjoyed that liberal patronage, even drew trade from as far as South Lyon; but these times, buyers are searching the papers for bargains and they go where the xerchants advertise them. Yes we know by experience that advertising paya. Young Holmes, the Grand Ledge man who killed a man in Grand Bapids, just because the man poked hie cold fingers down the back ot his neok on a change of venu was permitted to plead gnilty to manslaughter fined 91,000 and permitted to walk out a free man, upon his fathers paying the 6ne. If courts of justice (?) have come to this pass, peaceable people will have to look out for these awfully firey tempers.

Undoubtedly when Turkey started the affray she thought she could overcome all the forces Greece could muster with great ease, but she has found herself greatly mistaken. The first great battle at Milouna pass, when the Greeks, with a much smaller force and less advantageous positions than the Turks, held the pass for two days before retreating, was followed by a heavy Turkish defeat at Mt Analipsis. The Greeks however retired toward their headquarters at Larissa and took up their positions-at Reveni, Tyrnavo and over minor points between the plains of Larissa and Damsel. For three days the battles raged right royally about these places the Greeks astonishing their opponents by their stubborn stands against greatly superior-numbers and their ferocious assaults upon seemingly unassailable Turkish positions. Then it was that Edhem Pasha appealed to the Turkish government for 40,000 more troops. A peculiar and incomprehensible feature of the fighting at Tyrnavo and Reveni was that when, the Greeks at various points gallantly repelled the Turkish army and followed up their successes, orders were invariably received compelling them to stop just short of the complete occupation of the conquered positions. These orders in many cases involved the abandonment of the fruits "of much fighting with heavy loss and the spectacle was repeatedly witnessed ot a victorious force retiring to its old positions. The result of this was that the Greeks finally were compelled to retire from their positions and retreat upon Larissa, the headquarters of the Greek army. Then came the most serious blow the Greek arras had yet sustained. Dispatches from Athens say: Larissa has been completely evacuated by the Greeks, who spiked their guns in position and carried awayall of the movable cannon and munitions of war. The wounded remain at Larissa under the protection of the Red Cross flag. The news created considerable excitement at Athens. Later dispatches say that, after a a most desperate battle a t Mati the Greeks were outnumbered, retreated with heavy loss, abandoned Tyrnavo and Larissa and removed theif headquarters to Pharsala, a small town 20 miles due south of Larissa. Although it is said the Greeks carried off all their guns from Tyrnavo and Larissa, and also destroyed the provisions they could not transport the guns to Pharsala. It is reported on good authority that the retreat was very disorderly and that the column of Gen Smplnetz was in great peril but finally reached Pharsala in safety. Ex-Minister Ralli, w h o was at Larissa, has returned to Athens and placed the responsibility for the Greek reverses upon the staff of Crown Prince Constantine. Ralli denounced their fighting tacties and declared that the sadden sbendonment of Tyrnavo and Larissa was due to their cowardice and incapacity. These charges created great exeitement at Athens and resulted in King George recalling the stan* and appointing Ralli and three of his nominees to replace them. King George also announces his intention of going to the front The Greeks will make a firm stand at Pharsala, which is a far stronger defense than the frontier. But should it become necessary to abandon t h a t position a final aland will be made do miles south ha the Othris mountains, a t the famous^ pass of Thermopylae. h^a»^*4tb& been |The Anderson^] roads to carry jftcy passed by the Se an snsv aa^y ^^ nssHMBSj^nrsn^' given immediate eflset and only requires the governor's signature to be in x>pei*tion.

(7RAPTEK XVlll.-tCojrrisosD.) Had I had my right senses I should have known instantly—nwving seen such things in other places—that what I was looking oo-etaa seaweed that had grown in great strong masses among the rocks, and was eternally tossed hither and thither fantastically by the action of the waves; but I /was In so nervous a condition that my Imagination colored every thing before my eyes, and made It different from what ft was. Knowing that if I wished to keep my reason I must school myself into a calmer state, I sat down on a rock, with the intention of giving myself a chance of sleeping. My tired body, grateful for the opportunity, may have slept, but my mind was so excited by recent events that no effort on my part could soothe or quiet it. Every moment a new picture presented itself. I had given no thought to the tide coming in, and it was the rising of the waves that, after the lapse of I know not how many minutes, aroused my body to consciousness. At that moihent I was enacting in my dreams the scene of tbe burial of my poor little Bob. The men were standing around the grave with the lighted torches in their hands, and I was Bpeaking from what I remembered of the service of the dead: " 'I am the resurrection and the life/ saith the Lord; 'he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shal) he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shal) never die/ " CHAPTER XIX. r^ ITH these words very clear In my mind, I woke—to find that the moon had risen and that the tide was comig in fast, straight before me, stretching almost from my feet, was a long rippling line of light on the sea, with the stars shining and playing In it—a beautiful and familiar sight. But it was not the glittering line of light on the sea, nor the shining of the stars, nor the creeping of the waves against my legs, and made me leap to my feet with something in my throat that might have oeen a scream, if it had not frozen before it reached my lips. Filiating on the water, straight before me, in the very center of the flashing diamond lights, was a spar with a body lashed to it. I could not distinguish whether it was man, woman or child but I saw clearly enough that the spar, as it floated slowly ashore, was being sucked in the direction of the sunken rocks, against which, when it reached them, it must surely be dashed to splinters. I did not wait to see more. I ran like mad to the fire, where the two men were on watch. ^Where's the rope?" I cried. "Wheie's the rope?" They stared at me, and thinking I had gone crazed, laid hands on me. "For the Lord's sake, don't atop me!" I cried. "Where's the rope? There's a spar in the water, with a body lashed to it, and it Till be dashed to pieces against the ^ocks if we don't save it. There isn't a moment to lose!" My earnestness drove the truth into their souls, and they became as excited as myself. Without more ado, they aroused the men who were sleeping, and we all raced wildly to the beach, dragging after us the rope which, by good luck, had been put into the boat from The Rising Sun; and in lean time than it takes to tell it, I was standing with one end of the rope round my body and the other end held by my mates. The next memeat I was is the sea, swimming toward the apar. As I neared it, I saw by the trailing of the fair hair in the water theft the body was that of a gjtrt; and I -tailed o u t - 's resection -mast nave a vineed ma that she eoaid not be canny yosr heart, sp yomr hestrtr 6 t eonrse she There aha lay, white face to tna ly dear; keep «M not made babies of all, and the tears tan down our beards. "Coma/* said one, more practical than the others, "what are we stand* ing Jilw this for? There may still be life, in the little thing. At all Averts, we are going to try if there isn't." It was Jik« as angel's voice, .speaking to us. WHh Paajl in, my .arms, Irwallead swiftly to the fire. -l<Mate•/, i said, aaljajdhirwiai her feet to the fire, "if you've never prayed before, pray now, H If we can save, the life of this dear angel, it w^l surely be a sign, that the Lord,will tf* merciful to us in other ways. You, Starley, spd you, James B^wden, kneel down and help me. You are fathers of children, and you will deal by this little one as if it were ane of your own. Nay, my lads, stand, aside; three of us will be enough. And If there is a drop of rum or brandy among you which you intended to keep to yourself, hand it over, for charity's sake." With a face that rivaled the bright glow of the fire in redness the most careless and drunken fellow in our crew, Tom Wren, pulled a flask of spirits from the bosom of his shirt and placed it on the ground: "Brevo, Tom Wren!" said I, "and thank you, my lad. There is not much I'll not forgive you for this." Tenderly, and with all reverence, we commenced our task of endeavoring to bring life into the unconscious body, and those whose assistance was not needed stood apart watching us, with their hearts and souls in their eyes; and some of them prayed, I am sure. Around tbe little girl's neck was an oilskin bag, so securely fastened that the watei had not been able to get to the contents. This was the first thing I removed from her, and Tom Wren, opening the bag, called out that there were books inside. Patiently and with all the gentler skill we could command, we pursued our task, with heaven on our side; for we had not been at work half an hour when Starley, with his ear to the child's heart, screamed like a man in a frenzy: '"Her heart beats! She lives—she lives!" "No noise, no noise!" I cried, as the men began to huzza; "you might frighten the life out of her. Pali on your knees, rather, and thank the Lord in silence for his mercy. Ah, my girl! If I had been so blessed with Bob, and if the two of you had lived " The eyelida quivered and slowly an* closed, and then; with a faint tig**, closed again. I mixed some water with brandy, and placed it to her lips. "Drink, my child," I said. She drank gratefully, and ate a little biscuit I soaked for her. We continued our task until the blood began to circulate freely, and then she opened her eyes again, and gazed before her with a vacant wonder In her face. "Pearl," I said In a whisper, with my face to her lips, "do you know me?" She raised her weak arms, and I placed them round her neck. She lay in my lap, restored to life, with the warm blood flowing through her veins. "Do you remember little Bohr* I whispered again. "Bob!" she replied, after a pause, and speaking very slowly and softly. "Where is dear Bob? Oh, I have been so cold, and It is so warm here. Yes, mother; I won't forget. God protect those who are sailing on the sea. Oh, the cruel, cruel sea! I want to go to sleep. May I go to sleep!" "Yes, my child." All of the men bent over us with tender, wistful looks, and some ventured to touch her face softly with their lipa. I did not restrain them. She seemed to sleep, but consdousaess had not quite deserted her; and presently her lips moved, and she murmured dreamily, in her sweet child-like voice, the dear familiar prayer: "Our Father which sit In heaven—" angel's , whisper ths ssimsni OUT reached n W % r*s* torn**' $ o * j S in my arms, so that her fast wan nfsV tn on my breast, and, with her arms clasped abefct ay^ necki fasV*nl» calm and peasetul sleep, Tom Wren, stooping ever as, bis shadow stretching bahiad him like n weird, fantastic monster, waited V m V ment or so, and thennnym*, MWoHl without sad.

A brief reconnoitre convinced me that this would be the work of days.- If was necessary that I should make myself acquainted with the nature and resources of the island, and I selected two of the stead* lest of the crew to accompany me la my explorations, and told, the Jiaia body of men that we should be absent probably a weak. Before doing this I had satisfied myself that these I left behind would have no. di/ficjilty la obtaining food. The rocks sad shore abounded in shell fish, sad Tom Wren had already stioraedsd in snaring a doaen or so birds, spurred on thereto, as I rightly enough devined, by a desire to obtain something palatable sad tasty for little Pearl. He having prepared the birds, was roasting them before the are, while I was tngagsd string the men instructions as to their duct and proceedlnga Having appointed commander I was resolved, for ail our sahes, to enferce some kind of discipline. I hesitated as to whom I should delegate the command while I waa away, and my choice fell on the oldest man in the company, James Bowden. I placed in bis hands the list of names I had writaea down oa the previous night He stared at M with puzzled looks and shaded hia eyes, and turned the. paper round, and usside down. • "Cant read, perhapar said L ' "Sight you are, skipper,- ho rspttsn.

The Anglo-American Arbitration Treaty, which provides for the settlement of differences between the two countrys by a tribunal of arbitration, is before the U. 8. senate for consideration, and as American citizens we are more or • less interested in its su cess or failure. It is only the truth to say that the past treaties with Great Britian, as a rule, have not been creditable to American diplomacy, and the reason is, perhaps, plain; our country has had but the service of untrained men, while England has always had able men who were experienced in the diplomic affairs of their government For instance, the settlement of the Alabama claim is commonly conconsidered a great diplomic triumph for us, when in reality, the very same treaty of 1871, provided for the payment of millions of dollars to England and to Canada in settlement of war claims and in remission of duties, by the decision of an 'impartial" umpire, Urged upon us by Em gland. When England deals with the weak or helpless she makes them acquainted with might of her armies and her ships; when she kas differences with us she talks of the blessings of peace, and deplore the possibility of war between "the two great englishspeaking people." Some of our ablest men have been badly worsted in diplomic encounters with her; our soldiers and sailors she has not found to be BO easy. These are some of the reasons why ve should desire the failure of & treaty whereby England may gain over us without chance of Iocs, but which offers to us nothing but possible defeat and <2is- XIZ. One summer Morning, shortly before the close of the clvfl war, the not unusual sight, in Washington of an old veteran hobbling along oould have been seen on a shady path that led from the executive mansion to the war office, says Harper's Round Table. The old nan was m pain, and the pale, sunken cheeks and vague, far-away stare In his eyes betokened a short-lived existence. He halted a moment and then slowly approached a tall fffntl«man wh^JWJIi walking thoughtfully along. "Qood morning, air. I'm an old soldier and would like to ask your advice." The gentleman turned, and, smiling kindly, invited the poor old veteran to a seat wnder a shady tree. There he listened to Che man's story of how he had fought for the union and was severely wounded, incapacitating him for other work in life, and begged directions how to apply for back pay due' him and a pension, offering his papers for examination. The gentleman looked over the papers and then took out a cord and wrote directions on it, also a few words to the pension bureau, desiring that speedy attention be given to the applicant, and handed it to him. The (XI soldier looked at it, and, with tears in his eyes, thanked the tall gentleman, who, with a sad look, bade him good luck and hurried up the walk. Slowly the soldier read the card again, and then turned it over and read the name of the owner. More tears welled in his eyes when he knew whom he had addressed himself to, and his lips muttered: "I am glad I fought for him and the country, for he never forgets. God bless Abraham Lincoln!"

'There it will fly night and day, in fair weather and foul, until the winds have torn It away and the suns have faded its CDlora. The Fifth Avenue Hotel was the scene of hustle and excitement during the early morning. The broad corridors were filled with native and foreign dignitaries, and almost every second person blazed with bullion and military trappings. Loud shouts of the people announced the arrival of the president at 9:80. He rodeQn a carriage with General Porter and Mayor Strong. His reception waa flattering in the extreme and he bowed repeatedly. Vice-President Hobart joined the president and General Porter and, the mayor, and the open barouche in which they were seated drew up in the center of the plaza, where it toek its place at the head of the line. General Butterfleld, in his uniform of a retired general of the army, rode at the right of the barouche, which wap preceded by a picked force of mounted policemen. The military eecort included one sergeant and ten men of Troop A. The Granta left the hotel by the Fifth avenue entrance a few minutes ahead of the president's party. Mrs. Grant leaned on the arm of her son, Colonel Fred D. Grant, and the others followed. THB MAUSOLEUM. Altogether they occupied eight carrlagea. The Initial step in t*ve parade waa made almost on schedule time, and by 1:40 o'clock the presidential proceaakm waa on the move. Gheera greeted the diatingulahed party aa it moved through the decorated street*. Mrs. Grant and her family to the third generation were objects of special attention, and the widow of t h e hero was visibly affected at the great popular deanonstratian. The arrival' of the official portion of the precession at the tomb was the signal for a stupendous outburst of patriotic cheering from the 60,000 people in the ejrassslatands and oa the lawns around t h e monnraaat and on Clare* moat Heights The president and other guests alighted from their carriages at the monoment ataneTs and toafc places aennajaed to them in read! tor the iMatotiinl and mnsknl cereal 10:80 o'clock, and stillness In place of the noisy entauthat marked the arrival o f m day* rnexmtase.

They were headed by James R. Bmnch.commander- ln-chief of the Bona of Con* reoerate vetsrene. The tokens were reverently laid oa the aarcophagua by General J. B. Gordon, while his com* rades stood by with uncovered heads. It waa precisely 10:39 o'clock when the carriage bearing the president and vice president and the membera oi Grant's family and the foreign representatives arrived at the grand stand. As the carriages containing the distinguished partxj?assed between the wall of people on the roadway the air resounded" with cheers. The president acknowledged the ovation by smiling and bowing. The party ascended the stage on the west side of the tomb and the band stationed near by played patriotic1 aire. Preaident McKinley'a tribute waa a* followa: Fellow Cltiaens: A great life, dedicated to the welfare of the nation, here finds its earthly coronation. Even it this day lacked the Impressivenesa oi ceremony and was devoid of pageantry it would still be memorable, because it is the anniversary of the birth ot one of the most famous and best beloved of American soldiers. Architecture has paid high tribute to the leaders of mankind, but nevei was a memorial more worthily bestowed or more gratefully accepted by a free people than the beautiful structure before which we are gathered. In marking the successful completion of this work, we have as witnesses and participants representatives of all branches of our government, the realdent officials of foreign nations, the governors of Btates, and the sovereign people from every section of our common country, who joined in this august tribute to the soldier, patriot and citizen. .

The veteran leaders of the blue and the gray here meet not only tp honor the name of the departed Grant, but to testify to t h e living reality of a fraternal national spirit which has triumphed over the difference* ot the past and transcended the limitations of sectional lines. Its completion, which we pray God to speed, will be the nation's greatest glory. It is right, then, that General Grant should have a memorial commensurate with his greatness and that his last resting place should be in the city oi his cholce.to which he was so attached in life and of whose ties he waa not forgetful even in death. Fitting, too, la it that the great soldier should sleep beside the native river on whose banks he first learned the art of war, and of which he became master and leader without a rival. * But let ue not forget the glorious distinction which the metropolis among the fair sisterhood of American cities Jbas honered his life and memory. With [all that riches and sculpture can do to render the edifice worthy of the man, upon a site unsurpassed for magnificence, has this monument been reared by New; York as a perpetual record of his illustrious deeds, in the certainty that as time passes around it will assemble with gratitude and reverence, and veneration men of all climes, races and nationalities. New York holds in her keeping the precious dust of the silent soldier; but hlB achievements—what he and hli brave comrades wrought for mankind —are in keeping of seventy millions of American citizens, who will guard the sacred heritage forever and forevermore. , Mayor Strong accepted the monument on behalf of New York's citizens. The oration of the day was delivered by General Horace Porter. MRS. GRANT. brave spirit of Ulysses S. Grant fearlessly took its flight. Lincoln and Stanton had preceded him, but of the mighty captains of the war Grant wne the first t o be called. Sherman and Sheridan survived him, but have nince joined him on the other shore. The great heroes of the civil strife on land and s e r ^ r e for the most part now no more. Thomas and Hancock, Logan and McPherson, Farragut, Dupont and Porter, and a host of others have passed forever from human sight. Those remaining grow dearer to us, and from them and the memory of those who have departed generations yet unborn will draw their inspiration and gather strength for patriotic purpose. A great life never dies. Great deeds are imperishable; great names immortal. General Grant's services and character will continue undiminished in influence and advance In the estimation of mankind no long as liberty remains the cornerstons of free government and integrity of life the guaranty of good citizenship.

New York, April 27.—It was by popular subscription that the fund necessary for the erection of the tomb of Gen. Grant was raised, and it is estimated that 90,000 people contributed sums, ranging from 1 cent to $5,000. In all, $659,000 was secured. The unexpended balances were kept in trust companies and drew 3 per cent interest, so the sum increased until it now amounts to about $600,000. With the -exception of about $50,000 the entire fund was raised in New York city. Sixteen days after the death the body of Gen. Grant was laid, Aug. §, 1885« in the temporary vault in Riverside Park. The event waa a solemn and imposing ceremony. From all points people flocked, into the city by tens of thousands* At least half a million spectators gatHered in the streets to watch the long procession escorting the body to the tomb. The republic had never seen so great a funeral cortege as that which assembled to do honor to the remains of the dead commander and president. The old tomb of Gen. Grant—a squat little brick-built affair which was intended as a tempbrary resting place for the body and held It tor almost twelve years—stands as a woeful contrast to t h e new tomb in which the remains are to rest for all time. : With t h e old tomb, the thoesands who stood before the grated door each year thought only of the dead man of war; 'With the new tomb that feeling must in part give way before the of the sYtfstte structure to preserve the other o*t fPiiadtes, much procress before the victim » aware of its extye^©*,; ^ is. theretore, with great pleasure we commend to our readers the recent discovery in East India of the Kava-Kava ahruh, which has proved a? utsnt powerful remedy for diseases of tb* kjdnayt. rheumatiam, or other ailments caused by uric jwid; Ah the iJeod: ^tyr^ures wrought by this new remedy axe indeed most i J r n a r l B J ^ ^ ered from the most severe fqrma/af the disease, have been^ttmpletgtf cured to from twentymo ffaky u a y i T b f thb Kava-Kava atfrubr In the^tfew t o r t Weekly World of Sept 10th, the testimony of Eev.

Watson of Sunset, Texas, a minister of the gospel of thirty years' service,' was struck down at his post of duty by Kidney disease. After hovering between life and death for two months, and. all his doctors having failed, ho took Alkavia, and was completely restored to health and strength and is fulfilling his duties as minister of the gospel. Mr. R. C. Wood, a prominent attorney of Lowell, Indiana, was cured of Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder disease of ten years' standing by Alkavls. Mr. Wood describes himself as being in constant mideryi often compelled to\rise ten times during the night on account of weghMsgf of the bladder.* He was treated ay all his home physicians without the least benefit and finally completely, cured in a few weeks by Alkavts. The testimony is undoubted and really wonderful. Any of our readers,who are so unfortunate aa to suffer from Kidney disorders or Rheumatism should write to the Church Kidney Core Co., of 42¾ Fourth avenue, New York, who will gladly aend them free by. mall prepaid a Large Case of the Kava-Kava Compound, so that they can test its: vniue for themselves.

If everybody knew why the back was lame and how to cure it, happiness would reign supreme in thousands of worrying homes. Michigan people are learning fast, are finding out the secrets of the back.

The latter said that there could hi no doubt of the partiality of the government, and the people of Ihe United States towards the settlement of disputes by arbitration, and that for this reason there never would be any difficulty in securing an agreement tor arbitration of any specific dispute withiany nation, but it was not necessary for our people to tie themselves in an agreement of uncertain scope and purport, es(>ectaUy with a country which has shown itself so completely out of sympathy with the feelings of the people of the United States in the position England bad taken in European affairs. After the ballot Senator Davis, chairman of the committee on foreign relations, attributed the defeat of the treaty to the feeling of dissatisfaction at &igland's course in the struggle of Ithe Greeks to liberate the island of Crete from ottoman dictation and the Armenian massacres, and with, the evident designs of Great Britain upon the Transvaal. - — , , — ^ , m » i • • - • Hecent Cuban VIctorlM*- A dispatch from Havana says: Cuban troops led by Gen.

Calixto Garcia seut one of his dynamite guns with the best trained crew with instructions to Robi to fall upon the city forthwith. Robi had little difficulty in taking it, t h e volunteers offering slight resistance. The insurgents sacked the government commissary, liberated Cubans in the prisons, nailed the Cuban colors to the flagstaff on the city hall, and were about to evacuate the city and bear off the plunder, when Rey's forces returned to give battle. Robi took u p a position outside fee city and awaited the coming of the Spanish. Before Rey's men could fire a shot, the dynamite gun was opened on them and a rattling fire of musketry followed.

The question of uniform text books in the schools throughout the state occupied nearly a day in both houses. The bill provides for the appointment of three commissioners who, together with tile state board of education, shall form a state commission to determine upon a uniform system of text books and t o contract for the publication of the books, regulating the price, the books to be sold to the pupils of public schools at cost figures. Those school districts which do not wish to come under the provisions of, the bill have fee choice of adopting the free text book system now on the statute books. In the Senate an attempt was made to recommit the bill to the committee on education, but after a hard fight the friends of the bill defeated the move and i t was placed on the special order. In the House committee of the whole a like bill was under discussion for several hours and was not then disposed of. The Pearson bill to codify and simplify the drain laws of the state was passed in the House.

It will probably be reconsidered. The Senate passed the following bills: Appropriating 9115,000 for the Michigan college of mines; to permit sureties on bonds given by executors, administrators, guardians or trustees, to appear iu probate court in opposition to the allowance of accounts of such executors, guardians, etc.; requiring judges of |['-obate to give notice to foreign consuls of an application for administration of the estate of deceased persons; for the appointment of guardians of persons who are habitually addicted to the use of narcotic or uoxlous drugs, and for hubit.ual drunkards; providing that when factory inspectors ordibr improvements to factories the expense of the same shall he borne by the owner and not the teuant; permitting telephone stock to bv> issue'd in 910 shares; providing an automatic bell signal at railroad crossings; appropriating 97,fiOO tor improve men U at the Ionia asylum.

In committee of the whole the House agreed to the bill providing for the interchange of the products of various institutions, benevolent, penal and reformatory, to be managed by a commission t o be comprised of one member from each institution's board of control. Rep.

The Senate committee on rail road a bas reported favorably the Merriam biH'which proposes to raise in taxation 00 railroads about $200,000 more than at present, and it is possible that the Senate will make the amount still greater. As the bill was reported it provides for a 2¾ per cent tax on the receipts of railroads getting less than 92,000 a mife; $% per cent on receipts of between 93,000 and 94,000 a mile; 4 per cent on receipts between 94,000 and 96,000,and 4½. per sent on all over 9fi,00Q, President Dunstatt of the Senate ruled to t>e out of order the concurrent resolution to appropriate 97,600 for a Michigan exhibit at the Tennessee centennial exposition at Nashville and was sustained, and feat killed i t The Senate committee on the U. of M. reported without recommendation the bill for the removal of the homeopathic school to Detroit and it w a s placed upon the general order.

I directed a fire to be lighted on the top of the highest point of land near to • the^ tea;, there we* plenty of wood about, and an immense pile of young sapling* and branches waa gradually made, with wbieh the fire waa continually fed. All precautions in our power were taken to prevent the heavy rains from flooding and extinguishing the fire, and we were BO far successful thai for years it was kept blazing. Faint as the hope of rescue grew, as season after season passed over our heads, it was never entirely deadened. By my use of the words "for years," you .will understand that a good slice of our lives was passed lu this prison. It is not my purpose- to give a detailed record of our experience during this sad t|ihe.. Space will not permit of |t,; and if it did, andj were, pressed to set them down, I should be fearful of commencing the task, knowing L have not the ability to write another "Robinson Crusoe." Only what I conceive to belong to the proper course Of my own selfish story wilt be here narrate^. The island was rich in forest-land, and for eight months of the year the climate was good; • during the other four,.months it raised as it only can rain In those latitudes; and this was our most miserable time. In the summer the foliage was beautiful and lux/—I uriant, and • many exquisite flowers grew of whose names we were ignor- . ant. The woods abounded in birds, not difficult to snare, and the sea provided us with fish. Seals we caught in as large a Quantity as we desired, and many a desperate flght we had with them. At certain periods they wandered in the forests, and we heard them roaring there InTfie nights, They never attacked us; but: were oftentimes too sealous ill their defense to be pleasant We found fresh water in — the croaks.— - We had, therefore, good reason to be grateful; and but that we were shut in a prison, with a strong and natural yearning upon u« to mix with pur fellow- men, we might have led a fairly pleasant life. Some h*d wives, and children In dear old England, and the thought thai they would never see them again was mad4eni*g, As for myself, I was utterly alone in. the world. Wife and child dead; my old mother also, doubtless, dead, and reproaching me in her last days for my crueljty and injustice—-it was. a bitter thought, that—life was valueless to me, except in so far that life is sweet to all men. If it were sweet to me, it was a •west misery. We were the only human creatures on the island. Our numbers grew gradually less as time progressed, and the sense of loneliness which oppressed us. was terrible to bear. I come now to the regular course «f my story. When I returned from any exploration of the island, little Pearl had entirely regetned her health, and had Irmly established her position as Otteen jof the smell colony. Every man in th^crew worshiped her, and would have last down his life for her. As for Tom Wren, he was not happy out of ber^sight, and he followed her about as a faithful dog does his master. "I went to speak to you," Pearl said to me on the day of my return; and she pieced the list of names in my t*pfe*-"JRttd them over." {f4*4 through the alias. "Wett," she continued, "when I call thssm over, as I do every day. and the sssi all say, 'Ay, ay. Queen Pearl!' or 'Ay, ay, Fairy Peart!'—I like retry best.

"You must kiss mo," she said. I had done so already, you may be sure, and I kissed her again. "I was afraid," aha said, casting down her eyes, "that you mightn't like to." ^. "How did such a thought get into your head, little one?" I asked, tenderly. "On that dark night on the ship, when you spoke to poor4»ttle Bob And me >" A sob broke from me. "I don't want to hurt you," she said, in the sweetest tone of child-like compassion; "I want you to love me, and I'll do all I can—all I can! You remember that dreadful dark night when you spoke to dear little Bob and me?" "Too well!" I groaned; "too well!" "You cared only to kiss dear Bob then, and I thought you mightn't like to kiss me now." "Bob was my little boy, Pearl—my child, that I had been hunting for all over the world. You are not old enough to understand the story, my d<tar; and if you were, I haven't the hnart to tell you." "I understand a great deal," she -sarfd, gravely. "There, now, yon are crying! So have I cried, for poor mother. Oh, she was so good—so good! I knew that poor little Bob was your little boy—the men told me so. Come with me." Se unloosed her arms from my neck, and rose and took my hand. I had not yet had time to visit my child's grave, and Pearl led me now toward R.

'No, not found the me alone. Tom Wren wood—doesn't k smell sweet?—and built the fence, and I put the flowers there. He cut the cross, too."

"Bob, likes it, I am sure, and is glad, {hough we can't see him. When we die. we don't die quite— mother told me so, often. We come together by-and-by, don't we?" "So we are taught to believe, dear child." "And you do believe it? I do." I do believe it, dear child." And so does Tom Wren now. He never did so before, he says.

There waa a strange fascination in her voice, and but that the circumstances were different, 1 might have fancied it was Mabel, my wife, speaking to me, aa she used to do at a child in the old cottage at Brixton, After a little while, however, I recalled Pearl's wandering thoughts to the matter in hand. "About this man who is " l ^ n g . my child. Who is he?" "Mr. Fairley," she answered. Then I remembered that that was the man who had danced so wildly round the fire when tt^was first lighted, and who had so strangely disappeared when t **** calling over the names. Now, in my calmer mood, I remembered, also, that that was the name of the man to whom I had intrusted my gold on the gold-fields, and who had run away with it His appearance answered exactly to the description I had received of him. It was because he had stolen my gold Uhat he was afraid to meet me face to face. But I could afford to forgive him for the theft Of what value now was gold to men in our situation. If he had the stolen money about him he wae welcome to It All animosity toward htm with reference to ha knavery had died away. But I resolved to search for him, and I did, believing mysesf to be In | way accountable tar hiss, as eosnmandor of «he crew.

We tried nearly all of the local physicians, and I we* taken away to the baths. Nothing did me any apparent good, and I suffered very much. ' 'It is now six veers since I became unable to walk. Afterward I grew worse and was absolutely helpless. Braces were used in the hope or strengthening my limbs so as to make me able to walk, but they did no good. "I wss completely discouraged and se were my people. My friends gave me up to die, ana the doctors, each one of whom at first declared he could have me walking soon, all declared that I never could wall again. I bad no longer any faith in any doctor or any remedy." Finally, after persistent effort,her friends induced her to take Dr^_William«' Pink Pilis, bat against her will, for she was discouraged. She «ay« of the results: "I noticed no change after taking the first box or so, but they asked me to give the medicine a fair trial, so they kept on prescribing i t "I took no other at the time, so that if any good were to come we would know what had brought it about. Pretty soon a change was noticed. My muscles became more flexible, and I suffered much less. At the end of three months I found I could move my limbs, could lift myself up, and was no longer helpless. I kept on and still refrained from every other sort of medicine. "In one year from the time I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People I could walk, something all the doctors had decided I never could do again. "At first, having been helpless for so long, I could not trust myself to walk on the street, as I felt afraid. Boon, however, I grew more confident, and walked everywhere as Well as ever, and have been doing so ever since. I took the pills for two years, as I was afraid to stop until I was sure the cure was complete. Before I took them I was •> wreck, and now my general health is very good." Mia* Osborne was repeatedly questioned as to her opinion of what cared her, and she has often declared it to have been Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, as she had been growing steadily worse until she had begun using them, and as she used no other medicine after taking the pills. Druggists In Richmond now have a large sale ofthese pills, and it is a frequent occurrence to have a customer ask for the medicine that cured Miss Osborne. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are not a patentmedicine in the sense that name implies. They were first compounded as a prescription and used as such in general practice by an eminent physician.

Everybody has heard of the "deadly upas tree"; yet few, probably, even of those who use the phrase with fine rhetorical effect have any very definite j conception of its meaning. Of course, the whole thing is a myth; but the following version, extracted from a quaint old bcok, may serve to render our ideas less hazy about it, saya an exchange. "The Bohon upas ;.s situated in the Island of Java, between eighteen and twenty leagues from Tinkjoe, which is the residence of the king of that country; It is surrounded on all sides by a circle of high hills and mountains and the region around it, to the distance of ten or twelve miles from the tree, is entirely barren. Not another tree nor a shrub, nor even the least blade of grass is to be seen. I have made the tour all around this dangerous spot and I found the aspect of the country on all sides equally dreary. The easiest ascent of the hills is from that part where dwells an ancient hermit. From his house the criminals are sent for the poison, into Which the points of all warlike instruments are dipped; it is of high value and brings a considerable revenue to the king. The poison which is produced from this tree is a gum that issues out between the bark and the tree itself, like camphor. Malefactors who for their crimes are sentenced to die are the only persons who fetch the poisons, and this is the only chance they have of saving their lives. After sentence is pronounced upon them by the judge they are asked in court whether they will die by the hands of the executioner or whether they will go to the upas tree for a box or the poison. They commonly prefer the latter proposal, as there is not only some chance of preserving their lives, but also the certainty in case of a safe return that a provision will be made for them in future by the king. They are also permitted to ask a favor from him, which is generally of a trifling nature and is commonly granted. They are then provided with r silver or tortoiseshell box in which they are to. put the poisonous gum and are properly instruct ed how they are to proceed while they are upon their dangerous expedition. They are always told to attend to the direction of the wind; they are to go toward the tree before the wind^ so that the effluvia from it may be blown from them. They go first to the house of the old ecclesiastic, who prepares them by prayers and admonitions for their future fate; he also puts on them a long leathern cap with two glasses before their eyes, which comes down as far as the breast, and provides them with a pair of leather gloves. Thereupon they are conducted by the priests and tL*ir friends and relations about two r.iitee en their Journey. ' T h e old ecclesiastic assured me that in upward of tbird years he had disbove 700 criminals in the ner described and that scarcely two out ot twenty had returned. Ail the Malayan* consider this tree as a holy instrument of the great prophet to punish the sine of mankind; therefore to die by the An Important Advantage.

Y.) Register. Mr. James KuWland of this village, states that for twenty-five years his wife has been a sufferer from rheumatism, A lew nigrhta ago sbe was in such pain that sbe was nearly crazy. she sent Mr. Rowland for the doctor, but he had read of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and instead of going for the physician he went f!o the store and secured a bottle of it. His wife did not approve of Mr. Rowland's purchase at first, but nevertheless applied the Balm thoroi ghly and in an hour's time was able to go to sleep. Sbe now applies it whenever she feels an ache or pain and finds that it always gives relief. He says that no medicine which she had used ever did her as much good.

The news that women are to be admitted to serve in Colorado's militia army will surprise all the other states and startle the despots of Europe. Any governor of Colorado may now ride bridle deep in blood. How the new women soldiers aire to be uniformed does not appear. Tho bloomer costume, or the short skirt, of the Greek army, will doubtless be adopted. In a letter upon the Eastern crisis, Gladstone has pilloried the Emperor William of Germany. The Old Man Eloquent disposes of the Young Main Inconsequent and Recalcitrant by describing him as "-having only such knowledge and experience, in truth limited" enough, as have excited much astonishment and some consternation when an Inkling ,of them has been given to the world*" Three causes are leading to the destruction of bird life in this country— the wanton killing of birds by so-called sportsmen, the use of dead birds or parts thereof as ornaments on women's hats, and the making of collections of nests and eggs* The fisst indefensible, the second is a reproach to womanhood, and the third should be restricted to collections for public information, like the Smithsonian Institution. The human race woufd miss the birds if they were gone. In JL08O the South had $257,244,561 invested in manufacturing; by 1890 thifvftad increased to $659,008,817, a gain of 156 per cent, while the gain in the entire country was 120.76 per cent The value of the" manufactured product* 0/ the South rose from $457,454,- 777 in 1880 to $917,589,045, in 1890 a gain of 100 per cent, against an increase of only 69.27 per cent in the whole country. The factory hands of the South received $75,917,471 in wages In 1S8© and in 1890 $222,118,505. Since 1890 the gain has been very Large, and the Booth is now turning out $1,200,- 000,000 of manufactured products a year. A Berlin cable dispatch aays: "A meeting of material Interest to the working classes will be that of the international congress on legislation for the working classes - which convenes here next September. A similar congress met here in 1890, and at the coming iiwT<off th* n«oft|i ^htp>ys in legisiatio* tor the workers enacted since that ^ime will be discussed. Among the topics outlined for action will be as to whether international protective measures for workmen are possible or deaLr^e; ought international bureaus for the collection and distribution of trades statistics he established; as to the advisability of s a h a m i n g workers to * jsfoteetire regime, and how far protection is bsnosVfil" . There are reports of the discovery of a pnfeps of liquifying air. If this be true it will revoiutlonlae the entire merhanfoal development of the country. A telegram from New York aays: The - mysterious whitish nomnwiaa which was supposed to be a new and powerful frees*** mixture la lieniaed air, and is the basis of Mr. Triplets power, which, he contends, will take fee place of steam and produce energy at a ***> [ c o s t How h« ilwasftee air he telL R has been d e n* hesore. test i * email quantities in scientisVe bet scriptures, which, the Babbis call/ "MesiUaa Esther," * r the -volume of Esther, a book sometimes complained against. because the word "God" is not even once mentioned in it, although one rightly disposed can see God in it from the first chapter to the last, we have it set forth that Xerxes, or Ahasuerus, who invaded Greece with two million men, but returned in a poor naher'B boat, had a vast dominion, among other regions, India. In my text India takes its place in bible geography, and the Interest in that land has continued to increase until, with more and more enthusiasm, all around the world Bishop HeberThymn about "India's coral strand" 1B being sung. Never will I forget the thrill of anticipation that went through my body and mind and soul when, after two weeks' tossing on the seas around Ceylon and Indlao-for the winds did not, according to the old hymn? -'blow soft o'er Ceylon's Isle"—our Bhip sailed up one of the mouths Of the Ganges, past James and Mary island, so named because a royal ship of that name was wrecked there, and I stepped ashore at Calcutta, amid the shrines and temples and sculptures of that "City of PalaceB," the strange physiognomies of the living and the cremations of the dead. ,1 had never expected to be there, because the sea and I long ago had a serious falling out; but the facilities of travel are so increasing that you or your children will probably viBit that land of boundless fascination. Its configuration is such that no one but God could have architected, and it seems as if a man who had no religion going there^would be obliged to acknowledge a God as did the cowboy in Colorado. His companion, an atheist, 'had about persuaded the eowboy £h*t there was no God, but coming *midst 'some of that tremendous scenery; of high rocks and awful chasms, and depths dug under depths, and mountains piled on mountains, the cow boy said to MB atheistic companion, "Jack, if there is no God now, I guess from the looks of things around" here there must have been a God some time." No one but the Omniscient could have planned India, and no one but the Omnipotent could have built it. It is a great triangle, its base the Himalayas, a word meaning "the dwelling pl*cs_of { snows," those mountains pouring out of their crystal cup the Indus, the The archeenloaiat will be thrown.

But why have any Interest in people so far away that it is evening there when it is morning here, their complexion darker, their language to us a jargon, their attire unlike that found in any American wardrobe, their memory and their ambition unlike anything that we recall or hope for? With more emphasis than you put into the ifiterrogatory",,Why,M I 'answer,- flrstf t rjiye it Because our Christ was an Asiatic. J bread!" Brahmaputra and the Ganges to slake the thirst of the vast populations of India. That country is the home of two hundred and forty million souls. Whatever be one's taste going there, his taste is gratified. Some -go as hunters of great game, and there is no end to their entertainment.

You can not see the tiger's natural ferocity after he has been humiliated by a voyage across the sea. You need to hear his growl as he presses his iron paw against the cage in Calcutta. Thirteen towns hare been abandoned a* residence because of the work of this cruet invader. In India In the year 1877 eight hundred and nineteen people wexe slain by the tiger, and ten thousand cattle destroyed.

When he had sixteen or eighteen years to spare from his active work, instead of spending that time in Europe, I think he goes farther toward the heart of Asia, namely, India. The Bible says nothing of Christ from twelve years of age until thirty; 'but there are records in India and traditions in India which represent a strange, wonderful, most excellent, and supernatural being as staying in India about that time. I think Christ was there much of the time between his twelfth and his thirtieth year, but however that may be, Christ was born in Asia, suffered in Asia, died in Asia, ascended from Asia, and all that makes me turn my ear more attentively toward that continent as I hear its cry of distress. * . * * Most Interesting are the people of Inttia. At Calcutta, I said to one of their Readers, who spoke English well: "Have these Idols which I see any power of themselves to lielp or destroy?" He said: "No; they only represent God. ThereUs but one God." ' "When people die, where do they go t o ? " • ' • " ' ' ' - , "That depend*'upon what they have been doing; if they have been doing good, to heaven, and if they have been doing evil, to hell." "But do you not believe in the transmigration of souls, and that after death we go into birds or animals of some sort?" "Yes; the last creature a man is thinking of while dying 1B the one into which he will go. If he is thinking of a bird, he will go into a bird; if he 1B thinking of a beast, he will g o into a beast." "I thought you said that at death the soul goes to heaven or hell?" "He goes there by a gradual process. It may take him years and years." "Can any one become a Hindoo? Could I become a Hindoo?" K "Yes, you could.** "How could I become a Hindoo?" , "By doing as the Hindoos do." From the walls of one of their museums at Jeypore I had translated for me these beautiful sentiments: —The wise make failure equal to-sucgry .mohUui OR tfce p^nefc but thai the eufferer and the iupftly 0 be brought together, There etands die to-d*y! t o o k at fcer!

They who help by contributions of money or breadstuffs toward filling that relief ship will flavor their own food for their lifetime with appetizing qualities, and insure their own welfare through the promise of him who said, "Blessed is he that considereth the poor; the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble." • * * And now I bethink myself of eomethins I never thought of before. I had noticed that the circle is God's favorite figure, and upon that subject I addressed you some time ago, but it did not occur to me until now that the Gospel seems to be moving in a circle. It started in Asia, Bethlehem, an Asiatic village; Jordan, an Asiatic river; Calvary, an Asiatic mountain. Then this Gospel moved on to Europe; witness the chapels and churches and cathedrals and Christian universities of that continent. Then it crossed to America. It has prayed and preached and sung its way across our continent. It has crossed to Asia, taking the Sandwich Islands in its way, and now In all the great cities on the coast of China people are singing "Rock of Ages" and "There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood;" for you must know that not only have the Scriptures been translated into these Asiatic tongues, but also the evangelical hymns. My missionary brother, John, translated some of them into Chinese, and Mr. Gladstone gave me a copy of the hymn, "Jesus, Lover of My Soul",which he himself had translated into Greek. The Christ who it seems spent sixteen or eighteen years of his life in India is there now in spirit, converting and saving the people by hundreds of thousands, and the Gospel will move right on through Asia until the story of the Saviour's birth will anew be made known in Bethlehem, and the story of a Saviour's sacrifice be told anew on and around Calvary, and the story of a gar.^. recefved the endorsement 61 various Board* of Health.

Do not to others that which if done to thee would cause thee pain. And this is the earn of duty. A man obtains a proper rule of action by looking on his neighbor as him—if. From, that continent of interesting folk, from that continent that gave the Christ, from that continent wbieh has been CAdaared by so many missionary heroics, there comes a groan of eighty million people In hunger. More people are In danger of starving to death In India to-day than the entire population of the United States. In the famine in India In the year Mf7 about six tmlllkm people starved t o death. That in more than all the people of Washington, of New York, -of Philadelphia, of Chicago, put together. But that famine warn not a tenth part as awful an the one there now raging.

This old planet, gashed with earthquake and scorched with conflagration and torn with revolutions, will be girdled with churches, with schools, w>th universities, with millennial festivities. How cheering and how inspiring the thought that we are, whether giving temporal or spiritual relief, \ working on the segment of such a circle. And that the Chriatly mission which started in Asia will keep on Its way until it goes clear around to the place where it started!

The principal features of the bill as reported is the retention of the $2 d u t y on lumber; the tax on beer is increased 44 cents, making it $1.44 per barrel; leaf tobacco is c u t from $2 to f l . 5 0 , and filler is cut to 35 cents; hides are t a k e n from the free list and a tariff of from 10 to 25 per cent ad valorem placed on them; b e e t sugar machinery is to be admitted free; the House Hawaiian reciprocity treaty is stricken out, and a substitute offered for the g e n e r a l reciprocity provision of the original bill; numerous important alterations are made in tbe wool schedules, principally in the nature of s l i g h t reductions of the tariff proposed by the D i n g l e y bill; a duty of ib c e n t s per pound is placed upon tea until 1900 when i t will be placed on the free list; the m o s t important alteration of all, perhaps, from the standpoint of its immediate effect is the abrogation of the retroactive feature of tbe original bill and m a k i n g the date it will g o i n t o effect J u l y 1 instead of May 1. After the bill had been reported Senator Aid rich, as chairman of the finance c o m m i t t e e , g a v e notice t h a t h e would call u p tbe bill for consideration on May 18.

Not a citizen of Michigan that does not have them in* his household. It's the Old Story, too much to do; can't do the work. Backs forced to carry heavy burdens are not confined to toilers of the street They are found "in every walk of life;" people of "high degree" have bad backs, too, because they all have kidneys. Do you know what kidneys are for? They filter the blood, take out the poisons. Filters can only work just so fast, try to crowd them, they become blocked; then they kick; that's the time to help them, otherwise they soon are "Chronic Kickers." Ever have your kidneys kick? Know where they strike? Perhaps you have had a bad back, a lame, weak aching one. Didn't know the cause. Well, that's how the Kidneys Kick. The kidneys are near the small of the back and when their work gets too hard, they warn yon. Your back aches, is weak or lame. Help the kidneys out or many troubles come. Kidney troubles, Urinary troubles and of times Bright's disease. There is only one kidney helper always at hand, DOANS KIDNEY PILLS are perfect mechanics in their line and made for kidneys only. If you would help the kidneys, take DOAN'S KIDNEY PILLS. For any kidney ills ta\e DOAN'S KIDNEY PllJ-aS, because they cure.

Mme. de M&rsy, the president, told several men that the club was primarily intended for unmarried ladies and widows. She is on her guard against the demi-monde elements, which, as I have remarked, is always a locking danger, threatening feminine gatherings outside the icrcle of private life. No candidate is put up without a searching inquiry into her prirate life and she must give references. The Ladles' Olub is a very tame adaptation. What would militant members of the Pioneer say to this by-law: "No married Lady is eligible unless with her husband's written consent?" This is disappointing. One -of the grievances of the woman's rights party is the French law which prevents a married woman from carrying on business unless with her husband's consent. This was one of the most oftquoted instances of the unfairness of man-made law. Here was a chance to proclaim the Independence of the French woman. The committee of the Ladies' Club has missed it. Perhaps the conclusion is to be drawn that women, like men, have the prejudices of their time and country. — — Additional Local. gfaecisT Boache was in town Wed- •estfay t*w #oest of bis sister, Mrs. M.

In this connection Dr. Cyrus Hamlin, the wellknown missionary to Turkey aad the founder of Robert college, Constantinopie, is reported as telling a humorous story. Among Dr. Hamlin's friends and substantial helpers was a Philadelphia gentleman, whose name could not be recalled by the doctor, who was then in Turkey. Every incideat connected with their interviews, even to the street aad number of the house in which his benefactor had lived, was ai plain to the doctor as if the events had occurred but yesterday, but to save his life he could not think of the gentleman's name. As time went on this failure of memory caused him serious annoyance and he adopted all sorts of expedients to bring back the name. He would take the letters of the alphabet, one at a time, and think over all the surnames he had ever heard, but to no avail. Then, in his imagination, he would start down the street where his friend had lived, enter the house, go through the ceremony of Introduction and repeat word for word, as nearly as he could remember it, the conversation which had taken plaee between them, but still he could not recall the name. When, after thirty years, he returned to his native land on a visit, he took the trouble to go to Philadelphia, in order to settle the question which had been puzzling him so long. He visited tbe house, but found only strangers, who could tell him nothing of the people -who had lived there so many years before. So finally Dr. Hamlin abandoned the eearch, thinking that here at last was a case where something had been thoroughly presented to the human mind and as thoroughly effaced. One night, after he had returned permanently to thiB country, he attended a large dinner where were several distinguished psychologists. During the evening the conversation turned upon the subject of the memory aad the wellknown scientific principle was discussed. This was too good an opportunity to be lost and Dr. H&mlin pro-/ ceeded to relate his experience at length as an example of the opposite kind. He was, of course, listened to with great interest, and as he approached the end of his story be said, with great Impress!veness: "Gentlemen, there was an incident presented bo my mind more than forty years ago, and I have not been able to think of the name of Qapt Robinson from that day to this." When his climax was greeted by a hearty burst of laughter, the worthy doctor looked* round In great astonishment, for he thought he had told a pretty good story and could see nothing in it to provoke mirth. It was some time before the truth of the matter dawned upon him. BICYCLES: For Rent or Sale. Second hand Bicycles from $8- to $25.

There la a sense of relief in Athens at the prospect of an immediate end t o the calamitous war. That Greece is thoroughly in earnest is evident, as n o time was lost in ordering the return of the Hellenite forces at Crete and t h e immediate preparations for their embarkation for Athens. Negotiations at Athens are regarded as concluded. The theater of opera* tions to now transferred to Constantinople, where it is understood the adjustment of affairs will be much more difficult' in view of the demands it-is understood Turkey has decided t o make. » What U Turkey up to Now? It is reported that orders have been sent out for the mobilization of t h e fifth and sixth Turkish army corps reserves stationed at Bagdad and in Syria, and for the immediate dispatch of 50 battalions to Ismeed, in Asia Minor. These preparations, which involve an expense that Turkey is quite unable to bear, cannot be required against Greece, and they excite anxiety as indicating that Turkey is preparing either to confront a more formidable foe or to place herself in such a strong position that she will be able to ignore the powers and their plan of mediation. The London Standard correspondent says: I learn that a circular has been issued by the Sheik ul-Islam to t h e Imams in Constantinople and the provinces which foreshadows the speedy approach of a holy war, the sacred edict for proclaiming which is already being prepared.

This decision has the effect of continuing the control of the telephone by the Bell company for 17 years from the date of the last patent, which was granted in 1891. The case has attracted wide attention because of the extensive interests involved in its settlement. I t was claimed that the Berliner patent practically controls telephony, as i t has to do with both the transmission and receipt of sound, and that the delay secured in the patent office from 1880 until 1891 operated t o prolong the control of this act for 25 -years beyond the time of the expiration of the Bell patent To CoaapromlM the Cohan Qmeftioav The New York Journal Havana correspondent states that he is able upon high authority to confirm recent Washington reports as to negotiations pending there between Secretary of State Sherman, the Spanish minister, Dupoy de Lome and Estrada Palma of t h e Cuban junta in New York, looking to a peaceful solution by purchase or otherwise, of the Cuban question.

The Senate unanimously passed the Merritvm bill to increase the specific taxes on railroad earnings. The Senate also adopted a resolution to adjourn May 31. The retroactive bill, providing for appeals from probate judges to circuit courts with a jury trial, in cases of persons adjudged insane, was also passed by the Senate. Gov. Pingree is becoming aeewtomed to handling his veto power and is using it quite frequently. The most recent instance is the veto of the anti-cigarette bill. The governor's special veto message says the present law prohibiting the selling or giving of cigarettes, cigars or tobacco to any minor under 17 years of age, and providing a penalty therefor, fully covers the first t w o sections of the new bill. He is entirely opposed to the remainder of the bill in that it makes it a misdemeanor for such minor to buy 4>r accept cigarettes or tobacco and provides a penalty with a possibility of imprisonment. The governor says he favors punishing the seller or giver of cigarettes, etc., but he objects to the arrest of boys and making criminals of them. Both houses are now agreed upon May 28 as the date to cease acting on bills and May 31 {or final adjournment. Senator Holmes' lien bill met strong opposition irr the House, but it passed by a good majority.

Several important bills were passed by the House: Providing for the preference of discharged union soldiers, sailors and marines of the late rebellion in public work and preventing their removal, transfer or suspension from municipal office without a full hearing before t h e mayor or common council of the municipality; appropriating 93,750 for improvements at the upper peninsula prison at Marquette, 962,000 for the state public schools at Cold water, 98,000 for improvements at the Jackson state prison, 923,400 for improvements a t the Michigan asylum for the insane at Kalamazoo, 93,500 for a physicians' residence at the Fair Qahs colony farm at the Michigan a s y B n for the insane a t Kalamazoo, 9Je«00 for the Michigan Pioneer and Historical society; permitting- insurance companies to insure against theft; restricting the publication of state documents and providing for the distribution o f the Michigan state manual.

I f was1 Ttapida, Mich., was preaching at Coney pie to vote at school elections who own property which is assessed; authorizing organized townships to issue bonds for the payment of claims; for the plugging of abandoned salt wells in the counties of Saginaw and Bay. Gov. Pingree's threats, to keep the legislature in session all summer by calling special sessions until some action had been taken for heavier taxation of raili-oads, seems t o have made some impressions. The House spent 10:30 a. m. until 6 p . m . in committee of the whole on railroad measures and agreed t o several of those which are generally considered as radical Pingree bills. Rep. Atkinson was at the front all day as an advocate of the governor's ideas and.gave the antis hot battle. The bills agreed to were these: Local taxation of railroads, providing that the state hoard of auditors shall make t h e assessed valuations on railroad property throughout the atate, and that the revenues shall be' turned' into the state t r e a s u r y ^ be distributed through the .primary school fsukU the seme as a t the two-cent-fiat' fare bill, providing a two-ceat-per-mlle paeasnger fare oo all Michigan railroads; the .

The attempt to secure an appropriation of 91,600 for a Michigan exhibit a t the Seaaeeeee. eentenial exposition was resumed in the Senate after having been knocked out twice already, but waa tabled owing to ite failure t o sasme aaough votes to pass .it.

The bill was then amended V> apply to all railroads notwithstanding special charters. When the committee of the whole arose CoL Atkinson secured a suspension of the rules and the bill passed, 66 to U. f b 0 Pingree strength had increased on every vote from the first amendment to the final vote. It is estimated that the bill as passed will increase the taxes of the railroads from 9750,000 to over 91,500,- 000. During the day the House also passed the bill t o repeal the special charter of the Michigan Central railroad. The flat two-cent passenger fare bUl failed to pass, however. CoL Atkinson had the local taxation bill referred to the judiciary committee to be perfected in details. While the Representatives had their working togs on they held a night session and after two hours' consideration of i t agreed, in committee of the whole, to an insolvency bill, which provides for voluntary and involuntary .assignments for the benefit of creditors without preferences, and has a bank-rootey clause releasing the debtor when he turns over bis asset* without frawd. . The bill has 102 sections and to 44 pages long. Rep, Edgar's bill t o emasculate third* term convicts and feeble-minded persons was also agreed to. Other bills passed by the House: Appropriating 95,000 for the improvement of the Mackinac island state park; appropriating 925,000 for/ t h e Ontonagon fire snfferers; permitting railroad directors to hold their annual meetings anywhere within the atate; appropriating II l.OOO to enable the state board of agriculture to hold farmer*' institutes; raising the limit of tsjretian for school purposes in fourth-eteaa eittea from IX to 2 per cent of assessed valuation. The Senate paased the Mason ' tax lien bill which provides that t a x , purchasers must give notice by registered letter to all persons having a n interest in the lands on which thejr have purchased tax titles, and gtoee the owner sly months in which to re~ deem his property. In case the owner Uvea in the county where the tax title waa purchased, he must be given personal notice by the tax buyer.

T^e copsaiera^pu of the Scaat* amendisents to the sundry civil Appropriation bill' was utkeu up. Mr. Simpson, of Kansas, pursued his tactics of attempting to harass the majority with poinUt of no quorum, but without success. Mr. Lacey criticised the Senate provision restoring to the public domain the reservation created by the order of President Cleveland last February. He thought the order should simply be suspended pending an examination. Mr. Knowlea, Populist, of North Dakota, and Miv llartman, pf Montana, supported the Senate amendments for the unqualified suspension of Mr. Cleveland's order and the restoration of the lands to the public domain. The latter characterized the order as the "prating shot of the greatest enemy the American people ever had." SENATE—H8th day—The Cuban ques-. tion occupied the entire1 day, the debate taking a wide range and at times becoming spirited when comparisons were made between ,the attitude of the former administration and the present one on the subject of Cuba. Senators Morrill, of Vermont, and Caffery, of Louisiana, spoke in opposition to the resolution; Senators Lodge and ; Foraker advocated deferring the question until further information could be secured from the state department. Senators Mills and Allen declared that there was no need of further delay and urged the immediate passage of the resolutions recognizing belligerency. The debate went over for -the day. HOUSE—The consideration of the Senate amendments to the sundry civil appropriation bill was finished and the bill sent to conference. President Clavehjnd's forest reservation order was the subject of much debate; and. the House voted not to concur in the Senate amendment to annul the order. The western members pointed out the great injury to present settlers that would result if President Cleveland's order should become operative. The most interesting debate was on the appropriation of $50,000 to improve Pearl harbor in the Hawaiian islands, which was rejected by a vote of 85 to 52. - SENATE—39th day—The sugar investigation of 1894 was recalled by the introduction of a resolution by Mr. Allen, of Nebraska, reciting- the circumstances of the investigation, the refusal of Elverton K, Chapman to testify, his conviction in the courts aa a contumacious witness, and the present efforts toward his pardon. The resolution proposes that Chapman be brought to the bar of the Senate to purj^e himself of contumacy as a prerequisite to pardon. It went ov«*r on objections. On Mr. Morgan's request the Cuban resolution went over owing to the efforts being made by .the foreign affairs committee to prepare a report from documents iu the state department A bill was passed granting to Montana 50.000 acres of land in aid of an asylum for the blind. The immigration and the kinetoscope bills were reached, but went over on objection. HOUSE,—Xo session.

Finch & Co. stepped ou c, of the association and boldly announced that lu the future they would sell everything contained in their drug store, including physicians' preacriptions, at a rate which was from 80 to 60 per cent below the regular retail prices. This raised a perfect storm of opposition among other druggists and every means possible was devised to defeat their purpose.

They have just published a large cut-rate price catalogue, which they are mailing free on application. This catalogue will n o doubt be found very interesting, aa well as beneficial to the public, as i t gives regular prices, together with Finch & Co. s cut prices on patent medicines, drugs, household remedies, rubber goods, and, in fact, everything sold is listed in this book, so that people can see a t a glance just the amount saved on each purchase.

Tbe mining interests, while having already yielded enormous wealth, are only in their infancy, and every day shows t h e discovery of rich values never before suspected, and it is becoming proverbial that the "tenderfoot" "strikes it" as frequently as the practical miner.

DEATH O F A HEROINE. Ska F l f o r s d in OM of Do QolAoey'a Books* Readers of De Quincey will remember the very touching account which the essayist gives of a family of children who for two days and two nights were1 mowed up in their loneiy cottage in Easdaie, says the Westminster Gaaette. The parents bad gone to a neighboring village, were overtaken by a terrible storm and never came back. The eldest child, a girl of 12, who had played the mother to her brothers and sisters in a way whiek only some children can, ultimately made her way to a farm house, a search party was got together, and the frozen bodies of the parents, who had been unable to make their way against the wild force of the storm, were found near the famous Eaadale Tarn. The incident haa frequently been the subject of story, and if we remember rightly Wordsworth alao utilized i t We refer to it now in consequence of the death of Mrs. Hall, tho last survivor of the orphan family, at the age of 92. She was the youngest of them all and it is a singular coincidence that she should have passed away at a time when the snow—which had such a momentous effect upon her early life—again lies thick upon the fells.

And with the nice delicacy and higher sensitiveness and the feelings that education., refines there is greater pain, and there is no more moral strength, aa a usval thing, to bear it.

Guided by their feet the workmen put down their shovels and bring to the surface a quantity of ore and sand, which they throw Into their circular sieve. This is then held below the surface of the water until the soft sand is washed away from the ore, which is then thrown on a scow provided for the purpose or carried to shore. When a sufficient quantity has been collected it is carried to the railway near %t band and loaded on cars. Prom the deeper parts of the lake the ore is raised by means of a steam dredge. The captain of the dredge moves over ttte lake and, putting down a pole and working it about on the bottom, can easily learn where there is a body of ore suitable for dredging. The dredge is then removed to the desired spot and work Is begun. The ore and sand are brought up in buckets on an endless chain and thrown into a.long, revolving screen, adjusted and inclined so as to deliver it upon scows moored to the dredge. In its course down the screen the mixture of ore and mud is acted upon by the water, which Is thrdwn upon it with considerable force.

It Is a battle that has beefa going on for six thousand years. The troops engaged In it are sixteen hundred millions, and those who have fallen by the way are vaster In number than those who march. It Is a battle for bread. Sentimentalists sit In a cushioned chair, In their pictured study, with their slippered feet on a damask ottoman, and say that this world Is a great scene of avarice and greed. It does not seem so to me. If tt wert not for the absolute necessities of the cases, nine-tenths of the stores, factories, shops, banking houses of the land would be closed to-morrow. Who Is that man delving tn the Colorado hills? or tolling In a New England factory? or going through a roll of bills in the bank? or measuring a fabric on the counter? He is n champion sent forth In behalf of some home-circle that has to be cared for, in behalf of some church of God that has to be supported, in behalf of some asylum of mercy that has to be sustained. Who Is that woman bending over the sewing machine, or carrying the bundle, or sweeping the room, or mending the garment, or sweltering at the washtub? That la Deborah, one of the Lord's heroines, battling against Amalekitish want, which cornea down with iron chariot to crush her and here. The great question with the vast majority of people to-day Is not "home rule." but whether there shall be any home to rule; not one of tariff, but whether there shall be anything to tax. The great question with the vast majority of people Is. "How shall I support my family? How shall 1 meet my notes? How shall I pay my rent? How shall I give food, clothing and education to those who are dependent upon me?" Oh, if God would help me to-day to assist you in the solution of that problem the happiest man in this house would be your preacher! &-fca*e gone out on a cold morning wl(h expert sportsmen to hunt for pigeons; I have gone out on the/meadows to Jaunt for quail; I have gon to hunt for reed bi am out for ravens.

It you have In your despondency put God on trial and condemned Him as guilty of cruelty, I move today for a new trial. If the biography of your life Is ever written, I wtll tell you what the first chapter, and the middle chapter, and the last chapter will be about, if it is written accurately. The first i chapter about mercy, the middle chapter about mercy, the last chapter about mercy. The mercy that hovered over your cradle The mercy that will hover over your grave. The mercy that will cover all between. You think some great-hearted, generous man will come along. and give you his name on the back of your note, or he will go security for you in some great enterprise. No, he will not God will open the heart of some Shylock toward you. Your relief will come from the most unexpected quarter. The providence which seemed ominous will be to you more than that which seemed auspicious. It will aot be a chaffinch with breast and wing dashed with white and brown and chestnut; It will be a blaek raven. Here is where we all make our mistake, and that Is In regard to the color of God's providence. A white providence comes to us. and we say, "Oh, it is mercy!" Then a black providence comes toward us. and we my, "Oh. that is disaster!" The white providence comes to you, and you nave great business success, and you have a hundred thousand dollars, and you get proud, and you get independent of God, and you begin to feel that the prayer, "Give me this day my dally bread," is Inappropriate for yon. for you have made provision for a hundred years. Then a black providence comee, and It sweeps everything away, and then you begin to pray, and you begin to feel your dependence, and begin to be humble before God, and yon cry out for treasures In heaven. The black providence brought you salvation. The white providence brought you ruin. That which seemed to be harsh and fierce and dissonant, was your greatest mercy. It was a raven.

So time went on, and the summer came upon ua Ju ail lta beauty. The fire on the bill wae kept biasing, but we never aaw a ship, although a strict lookout was kept day and n i g h t I waa careful to keep the men well employed, knowing that work waa the beat kind of medicine tor them; but they often grew weary and disheartened, more or leas according to their temperaments and the nature of their thoughts, it wae not long before I became aa fond of Pearl as if she had bee* my own child, and we had good r*i*oa to blese her presence among us. She exercised a wonderful influence among the men, aad all aorta of pet names were given t o her—Fairy Pearl, Queen Pearl, Doctor Pearl, and the like. But she waa powerless to keep death from us, and the first to go wae Ralph Fortyman. He sickened and died within twenty-four hours. "We shall all go, one by one," whispered Tom Wren to me. "What will Fairy Pearl do when she Is alone?" - ^ W e must stand by her, Tom, till the last." •'Ay, ay," he answered, "till the last; and when I'm dead I'll watch over her." It was not the first time Tom had spoken strangely, and, indeed, his manner had formed the subject of a great deal of conversation between me and my mates. To tell the truth, we believed he had lost his wits; but if he was mad it was a harmless madness; and so long as our Pearl had Influence over him, there was nothing to be afraid of from him. It was not alone Pearl to whom he had attached himself, and who was fond of his society. It was known among us that he was in the liablt of spending hours with that man of our party who had refused to associate with us—I refer to Mr. Fairley—and it was from Tom that we continued to learn of the man's safety. But this came to an end before the summer departed. I am not likely ever to forget the day on which Tom, whispering stealthily that he had something to say to me, led the way into the forest. "Ralph Fortyman was the first," he •aid, when we were half a mile inland. "I will show you the second." I followed him for another quarter of a mile, and we paused before a rude shelter, built up with branches of t r e e s .— — -V—*- "Go in and look at him," said Tom. I went Into the shelter, and saw a man lying with his face to the earth. Aa I stooped over him, Tom whispered : "Dead, mate. Stone dead, I should say. Number two." It was the man known aa Mr. Fairley whose face I now turned to the light. And as I looked upon that face, my eyes became filled with blood, and I shuddered with rage. No shadow of pity for the dead entered my h>east; for, despite his hair and the change that years had made, I recognized in the dead man before me, Mr. Druce, the villain who had blasted my happiness." "Dead, eh?" questioned Tom. "Ay, the black-hearted scoundrel!" I replied. "I know the reason now** why he feared to meet me face to face;" I bad no sooner uttered the words than I staggered aa though a bullet had struck my heart—Tom, catching me, palled me out of the shelter, and gaajsd anxiously into my face. "What makes your lips so whiter* he inquired, in a frightened whisper. "Did n e die of a fever? You mustn't be the next to go—you mustn't be number three. Fairy Peart loves you better than she loves me, and you and I must be the teat otail." "I am well enough," I managed ho utter, though how I managed to speak the words so aa to make myself understood is a mystery, for I was almost choking. "It wae o n l y a spasm. Peart will miss you, Tom. Vou have been too long away from her. <& to her; I will follow, you soon.

Was not the inferenee as clear as the noonday sun? A black cloud fell upon my s o u l All goodness, all purity, was blotted out of the world for ever aad ever! Through all my trouble and misery * a*4 ©lung, with strong, yearning hands, to the rock of my wife's faithfulness. Whatever of sweetness into my life (Heaven knows there was little enough!) after the last interview with my mother, came to me through the; light of this belief in Mabel's Innocence and purity. But for that my soul would have been wrecked many years ago. Better if it had 1>een; better if I had fallen; better if I had died! For pow the rock to which I had clung, and on which grew flowers which' had brought a sad, sweet consolation to me, crumbled away to rottenness at the sight of a dead man's face; henceforth truth and virtue were lying symbols. The waters round about that rock had hitherto been clear and bright, and in their depths I had seen mirrored the stainless soul of a pure woman, bringing to me a vision of heaven in the future. Now the waters were black and turbid, and nothing but defilement and treachery were there. I pressed my hands upon my eyes and forehead to prevent myself from going mad. Before that occurred, I must look once more upon the face of my enemy. It lay before me, gray and sinful even in death. I had seen the face not more than six times in my life, and each time it had brought a blight upon me; but it had never been more powerful for evil than now, when the treacherous eyes lacked light, and the lying tongue was dumb. As I gazed at it, faith, hope, religion, died utterly away, and left me a reckless, despairing man. -What could my wife have seen In this villain to cause her to be false to me? The basest and meanest qualities in human nature never had a more fitting shell than the carcass of this man; and as I spurned it with my foot, I reflected with bitterness that I had net even the satisfaction of revenge. For I doubted not that if I had met him alive I should have killed him, and I experienced no feeling of gratefulness that I had been spared the crime. As I disturbecUthe body, a piece of glittering metal on the ground attracted me. -I picked-it op; It was a sovereign; and my attention woe drawn to the circumstance that the earth upon which the body lay had' been newly turned over. I pushed the inanimate clay aside, and, scratching the earth with my nails, I came upon a treasure in gold. I dug It up, and calculated that the weight altogether, in rough nuggets and sovereigns, could not be less than thirty pounds. It was for this my wife had betrayed me; this was the virtue she saw in him. My dear old mother waa right. Mabel's heart was as good as gold; no better; and such a poor thing as love faded in its glitter. As I ran my fingers through the pile, I derived a savage pleasure from the reflection that the worthless heap was mine, and Indeed a great part of it really did belong to me. Had not the villain stolen it from me on the gold-fields? I removed1 it, and buried in in a secret thos fax read" t h e suppose yon will choose to hnry-hi though by rights he ahonld be left to rot where he lies.

It agonises me now m> think of them, and I humbly hope I have atoned for them by prayer. Nature conquered me in time* and I sank exhausted to the ground. I had no wish to live; and it-was merely theunconquerable instinct of hunger thai caused me, as I lay in a stupor, t o pluck some leaves and place them between my teeth. That they were bitter to taste made no impression upon me. Chewing them, I fell into s deep sleep. It was at this period of my life that I lost count of time, as I have elsewhere said. How long an interval passed before I was sufficiently conscious to take note of actual events I have never been able to discover, not* withstanding the efforts of my friends. And consciousness- came so gradually, and the stniggle to assert ttaett was s o - prolonged, as to add to my confusion l a this matter. Minutes that were Mice weeks, weeks that were like minutes, passed by during this crisis U. a strangely sweet manner. I was soweak and helpless that I could scarcely move, and so composed and restful that I did not wish, and even feared, to d o so, lest a change should take place 1st my condition. The first thing I remember is that, opening my eyes languidly, I saw the sun shining through s roof of loosely twined branches; tho next, that after an interval of a moment, or a day, or of many days, X saw the stars shining through them. No sounrt disturbed the delicious stillness. Then came another impression, often repented, of my Upe being touched by food and liquid, which I took unresistingly. DM I then begin* to hear whispers, or was It the murmuring of the breese through the shelter of my leaves and branches? Bus an actual voice did come to my ears. "I am so glad, Tom! I am so glad!"* And on. another occasion: "Hush, Tom! We mustn't wake him." And further on, words to the sams effect, tenderly and lovingly spoken.

Surprise and indignation was aroused by the reading of samples letters written by the state department under Mr Cleveland to American consuls in Cuba, ^nd signed by Assistant Secretary Rockhill: "l advise you to make your reports less favorable to the insurgents hereafter, as the administration wishes to avoid all possible , friction with Spain."

Several senators and congressmen participated in the exercises and letters of regret were read from others, including Senators Burrows, and Chandler. The latter wrote, in part: "I wish tosee the United States declare and maintain the independence of the island as France did that of the American colonies and made the United States a nation. I hope and believe that congress and the President will soon formally recognize a state of war and Cuban belligerency. This step cannot fail to insure the Cuban independence. Moreover, without delay we ought to send u fleet and au army to land upon the soil of Cuba, first to protect the lives and property ot American citizens, and secondly, to stop the atrocious and uncivilized methods of warfare adopted by the Spanish generals. President McKinley willingly recognizes the binding force of the platform upon which he was elected,* and will soon do his part towards making Cuba free and independent." Karl Decker, a well-known newspaper correspondent who has just returned from Cuba, gave a description of the condition of affairs there and of the pitiable plight of many of the peo«- pie suffering for the necessities of life, He ridiculed the claims of Gen. Weyler that the island was pacified and said that if the Cubans were granted belligerent rights by the U. S. they would certainly win. It is certain that congress, acting in conjunction with the President, will take some action within in a very short time as the sentiment in both houses is growing stronger daily.

The bill to close photograph galleries on Sundays was made the butt of a good deal of fun in the House and w then, knocked out. Rep. Stoneman bill to compel notaries to keep a record of all instruments they execute and to have a notary public seal was killed ou the grouud that it involved a needless expense to notaries. The House also declined to pass the Brioker bill to prevent express companies from charging more for express over the lines of two companies than the maximum charge tor (he same distance over the line of one, company. The Stoneman bill for the }ocul taxation of railroads has been referred to the House committee on *: general taxation. The House committee on Hquor traffic has reported out the bill for the taxation of beer, recommending that it be cut in two, making it 33 instead of 64 cents on a barrel of beer. This rate, if the bill passes, it is estimated, will raise «31*0,000 in taxes. Apparently the railroads have given up the idefcof opposiug legislation in the House and will depend upon the Senate to defeat or cripple such bills as meet the displeasure of the railroad people. The House in committee of th^ wholu, withjvery little opposition. agreed to bills for a 3-cent passenger fare in the upper peninsula; for an interchangeable mileage book of 500 miles good for any member of a family or firm; for a 500 mile book at 2 cents per mile 1n the lower peninsula and 3 cents in the upper, There was not an objectiou to the Eikhoff bill; giving liquor dealers the right to keep their saloons open on New Year's, Labor day and on July I- The bill also provided that township boards may permit liquor dealers to keep their saloons open from 6 o'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock p. m. The Mason constitutional amendment, providing that all electors must be able to read the constitution of the state in English, which has passed the Senate- has also been agreca to in the House committee of the whole. The amendment to the constitution if adopted will not deprive those who are physically disabled from reading, nor those who had the right to.vote .Jau. 1, 1897, from their electoral franchise. Rep. Colvin tried to kill the bill appropriating 3^,000 for the state horticultural society urging that it wax a useless expense and one only to keep people, in offices. It was agreed to however. The House failed to pass the Dickinson bicycle path bill, which provided that boards of supervisors should license bicycles for a sum not less than 50 cents or more than 91, and provided for the election of three county bicycle sidepath commissioners (to be bicyclists), to devote the license moneys to the construction of bicycle side paths in the county. The vote on the bill was 45 lor to 10 against. Cyclists generally petitioned for the passage of the bill and it will be reconsidered. The Senate, iu response to the resolution of the House, asking for a conference committee on the Merriman railroad specific tax bill, authorized the lieutenant-governor to appoint a committee of five to meet, the House committee. Senators Merriam, M ait land, Preston. Teeple and You mans were named. The Zimmerman bill for an appropriation of $3,000 to keep the U. of M. hospitals open during the summer met some opposi- "tionrbifftt passedvas did the following measures: Amending the plank road law so that toll cannot be. collected on less than a mile of road; amending the tax law so that bondsmen shall sanction the appointment of a deputy to township treasurers; appropriating 910,000 for improvements at the Jackson state prison; prohibiting the employment of barmaids. Speaker Gordon named as the House conference committee on the Merriman specific tax bill Hops. Chamberlain, Sawyer, Fleischhaucr, Kelly and Washer.

The Senate passed the following appropriations: Electric lighting plant forthe U. of M., 920,000; industrial home fSsgirls, 980,000; dairy and food commission, 920,000^ home for the feeble minded, 9119,000; farmers' institutes, 911,000. Also the following bills: Attending the tax law iBO that township treasurers shall turn over all county money in their hands to the county treasurer, Jan, 10¾ instead of, waiting until March; for the payment of expenses in lawsuits the state is interested in or a party to. The House defeated the bill giving railroad sompanies the right to Lease from street railway companies and vice versa. CoL Atkinson opposed it on the ground that it would come too near to allowing the consolidation of railroads. The vote was reconsidered and the bill tabled for another attempt to pass it. The bill to prevent the holding of continuous horse races longer than 12 days was killed. The Senate refused to confirm the governor's appointment of ex-Mayor Brooks, of Jackson, as a member of the board of control of Jackson prison. Dr. Kdgar's emasculation bill was knocked out in the House, but was reconsidered and will get another triaL they had been grossly insulted by the attacks and insinuations of CoL Atkinson and bitter feelings were engendered which will undoubtedly cause constant fighting until the end of the session.

Pearl turned white and red, and- Tom sat nursinr-his knee, watching' us both very intently. Presently Peart came to my side. "Ate you angry with me still?" she asked. •4'Angry, my child!" I said, very slowly. "What have I to be angry about?" Tears came into her eyes. "You will kits me, then, Daddy Beecroft!" She laid her face close to mine, and put her arms about my neck. "Ton wilVfloon get well now," she whispered. *I have been ill a Ions time, have I not, my Pearl?" "A long, long time. And you will come among us again? Say_ypuwill." "Mayhap, my\child; but not yet. When I am string enough." "We'll soon make you strong, Tom and4 I. You must thank Tom. He bulit-'tb'ls ftfaee; nnd""fie has treen-w*^ Pearl in the txrtdetr of.^tfeem,holding a me every day. We have all been so eorr> for you. You haven't any more wieked thoughts, have you?" "Let me think, dear child. Things f.re not clear-to" me yet." I strove to recall what had taken place, and gradually during my convalescence my memory returned, and with It the dark, morbid thoughts that had been* almost fatal to me. I battled hard against them. I knew my danger, and knew aleo that I was not strong enough, unaided, to gain the victory. I looked about ferr help, and I fottnd It at my side in the pure spirit of a child. Pearl saved me from myself. She nursed me with such gentleness and tender love1, that my heart would have been; stone indeed had It resisted her sweet-influence. She must hare had an instinct of my peril, for she left me only for an hour each day, and sheilepftieneath the oam'o roof. Understand me. I believed my wife to have been false to me; but she was dead, and, with better feelings stirring wtthln tee, I drfreti not lay her sin against all my kind. This was the result of no goodness in myself; I was ready enough to condemn, bet a child's pure heart and staple spirit had softened and chastened me. I had not yet seen any of my companions, with the exception of Pearl and Tom Wren. Words which I had repeatedly dropped in my delirium had been construed by my nurse into fixed determination not to meet them; and even now, notwithstanding my promise to Pearl, the reluctance to rejoin them was very strong. Pearl urged" *ae gently. "I want you to help me so much?" "Help you, dear child! In what wayf "I keep a school," she answered with a merry laugh. "Think of that! You remember when you gave the paper to Mr. Bowden he could not read, and none of the others 'could but you and me. Now some of them know- their letters quite nicely." I gazed In delight and amazement at her flushed, bright faee. • "How do you teach them, dear chUS^ - — — before me, dead and cold. A'grave was there, and by that I know ray mates muat have buried him. '*Let him rest," I thought, more in sorrow than in auger; "he can work no more mischief now." Then I turned to the place -where I had buried the geld. It had' not been disturbed, and I covered it again carefully, resolving that, if by God's mercy we were leecued, I would take as much of it for my own purposes as was properly my own. For the'rest, my mates should decide what Should be done17 with It. My next visit v;aa to my little Bob's grave, and I noted with grateful feelings hew carefully it bad been tended during my Bickness. The flowers blooming there were a better sermon than any that man could preach, and I blessed Pearl in my heart for her love and thoughituluess. These signs of love, no less than the sweet, pure air, refreshed and strengthened me, and I strolled through the woods again, thinking of Pearl and her school with affectionate curiosity. Soon I heard voices, and1 went toward tbem. Surely enough, there was the school, in a small clearing, surrounded by 'trees. My mates were there, and book. Concealing myself behind a tree, where I had a clear view of the scene, I listened to what was going on. Six of my mates were present, all of them deeply Interested In the proceedings, and with such expressions en their faces as denoted that a knotty point was being discussed. Tom Wren, to my surprise, looking somewhat rebellious, was seated on some stones which had been built up to form a seat, and Pearl was leaning over his shoulder. "Now, Tom," said Pearl, "I have told you a hundred, hundred times, and you're a bad boy. Here it is—A. A is the first letter. Mr. Bowden, please to say your alphabet." To my infinite amusement, Mr. Bowden, who could not have been less than sixty years of age, instantly stood up, and, in as awkward a manne¥ Jas any new school-boy could exhibit, went stumhllngly through the .alphabet. He made a few mistakes on the journey, and was gravely corrected by his mates, who themselves were more often wrong than right. "Yoli see, Tom," said Pearl, holding up a reproving finger, "they all know better than you. A is the first letter/ and O is In the middle." But obstinate Tom shook his head. "Stand up, sir!" cried Pearl. Tom stood up so readily and meekly, and the other men looked on so apprehensively, that it would not have surprised me had the fascinating little school-mi stress peremptorily desired him to hold out his hand to receive six for his contumacy. And Pearl really did have something in her hand that looked like a cane; but she made no use of It on this occasion. "Once more, Tom," said Pearl, as the bay boy of the school stood submissively, and yet with an air of dogged independence on him, before her, "what is the first letter of the alphabet?" . "O," said Tom, very decidedly. "A, sir. A," cried Pearl. "O, Queen Pearl, if you please." "Then I suppose," said Pearl, con > "I have only two books. On that dreadful night mother put them In an oll-skln bag round my neck: Here obey are." She placed the books in my nands. One was a torn primer, 'the other a child's 0097 of "Cinderella." < "Yo* were reading 'Cinderella' *o Tom.** I said. "Yes, Daddy Beecroft,** she replied. with another merry laugh; "and, do you know, he goes all about the forests Vacttm tor—pumpkins' He says he vfllute fare to And soma, and that one ahall be turned into ship, and anothef Into money, and others into other tbiags-^all for me, Daddy.

"And the third?" "Ah, you've got that right, then.

He held out "Cinderella." 'Which is, the beet book of the two. and which is the book to go by? Who holds up his hand for 'Cinderella?'" Every hand was held up. "And who," continued Tom, proving" himself a rare logician, 'holds up his hand for the Primer, as Queen Pearl calls it?" Not a hand was raised. Tom chuckled. It wan evidently a matter which he had pondered over deeply. "Well, then," he said, "look at the first letter in 'Cinderella.' What la it? 0. And the next? N. \nd the next? C. And'the next? BJf There you are, then. O-n-c-e, once. '-Once upon a time' That's how It is. The man that wrote this Primer made a. mistake. And the man that wrote 'Chstterella' is the man to go by, and here's three cheers for him." Tom raised his voice lustily, and they all joined in. Even I. So that there was no mistake as to the success of the mutiny. But- they raised -a louder cheer when they heard my voice, and so discovered me; and P^arl herself, rejoiced to see me among my jnaen again, gave in to Tom, and declared that he was right; aflTT that O was the first letter in the alphabet. A few minutes afterward, when I had shaken hands all r^und. Pearl, seated between me and Tom Wren, read the pretty legend of "Cinderella" all through. And that also was a sermon as good as any ever preached in a church. And now I am warned that my story is in danger of being spun out to too great a length. So let the history of the next few years be told in almost as few lines. Indeed, one day was so like another, that a record of them would be but a repetition of things. Death came among us. One went; another followed; and another; and still another. Before iong, we counted the magic number, seven; and at this we mercifully remained. Our hair turned gray and white and we all thought that our bones would he_ burled in this island of the South Seas. We got resigned to this, and cared not for ourselves. Our only concern was for Pearl, our fairy, our queen Year by year she grew fairer and more beautiful and mo»-e beloved. She kept us In the right path. Her presence and sweet influence continually humanized us. James Bowden had kept a record of the days from the first, so that we knew when the Sabbaths were, and these, as well as Christmas, were religiously and lovingly observed. So Pearl grew into womanhood, and Tom Wren still searched for his pump-, kin, not finding it until one blessed day when our Island Queen was seventeen years of age. He came running toward us with the air of a wild man, and swore he had seen a ship. We raced to the hill where our signal-fire was still burning, and found that he was right It was a calm and beautiful day, and there lay the ship that was to restore us to the v/orld. It was long before we succeeded in making our signals seen; but when we did, and saw the boats putting off for ua, we fell upon our knees. Pearl nestled close to me, tenderly and anxiously. , ^You^-don't—forget yonr promise." she said, tearfully. "I have no one, daddy. I am alone in the world." "You are my child/' I said, as X folded her in my arms, "and you and I will never part X could net love » daughter of my own more dearly tfca* I love you," Long before this I had told my mates of the gold Mr. Druce had left behind him, and they had decided that half c* It was mine, and that the other half should be divided among those taint re- .!»•*•< PICKED UP ON BEO ADWAT. ss — — 1 a * / 0 ' < r-v.

Plow, up the old briar and weed covered fenae row and farm it for a year. Ten chances to one you don't need the fence anyway. Bye for soiling should be cut at least twice. But be sure to make the first cutting before the head appears. It is said the Germans cut it three or four times. Just as likely as not codling moths are in your cellar near tbe window, trying tq get out. Go see and if you find any kill 'em. Three-eights inches long: look for copper-colored spots near rear end of wince. Crimson clover loses much of its value as hay by cutting too , late. It is at its best when in full bloom and before ajo^jpfj^ejieads ~cfie7 The cutting should begin at this time, and the last load should be gathered before any of the seed is ripe enough to fall. Four gallons of white wash, two quarts of clay, two quarts of fresh cow droppings, three quarts of wood ashes; mix well an apply with an old broom to the stems and crotches of your peach, apple and quince and dwarf pear trees. This should be done at once as a precaution against borers. The wash should extend below the surf aceL of__ the gro_un4_a. couple of inches. If your trees have been planted and you did not.prune the tops, you made a great mistake. Go at Once and do it. Cut the peach trees off just above where budded near the ground: apples and peaches may have the entire head cut aff from two to four feet from the ground where you want the trees to head; or if you are afraid to do thai then cut out all feeble branches and shorten all others one-half. Do as we say please. Interesting Items. South Lyon tax-payers will be asked for only 1\ mills on the dollar or 25 cents on $100 valuation this year. ..

So he eats hardly any bread, his favorite food being oranges, bananas and meat. Such enormous sums are being paid for houses and windows in London along the route of the royal precession on June 22 next, and so costly are the preparations made by the people of the metropolis for the celebration of'the sixtieth anniversary of the Queen's ascension to the throne that during the last three months 'her Majesty's life has been Insured to the tune of nearly $5,000,000 by shopkeepers, window broken, house agents and speculators, who ate anxious to protect themselves against loss in the possible event of the venerable sovereign's death before the date of the jubilee. By the last census it appears that the population of France is now 38,- 228,969, an increase in five years of only 133,819, and this mainly through Immigration. For several years past the death rate has exceeded the birth rate. These facts become still more significant when a comparison is made between France and her neighbors. Jn Germany the Increase of population during the last five years has been 2351.481, nearly 3,000,000, as against 134)000 in France. The contrast is still more striking when these figures are compared with those of the past. At the beginning of the century France outnumbered Prussia three to one. Today Prussia contains almoet an equal population, and at for the whole of Germany, there are five Germans every four Frenchmen. to A cablegram from London says: In consequence of the efforts of the government of Massachusetts, the American Antiquarian and Maaaachufeetts Historical societies, the Pilgrim Society frt Plymouth and the New England Society of New York, backed up by the desires of the archbishop of Canterbury and the bishop of London. the consistory court of the diocese of London assembled March 25 in the old chapel of St Paul's Cathedral in order to determine the question o£ the rein the text he reveals the fact that he had studied that largest gland of the human system, the liver, not by the electric light of the modern dissecting room, but by the dim light of a comparatively dark age, and yet had seen Its important functions in the Godbuilt castle of the human body, its selecting and secreting power, its curious cells, its elongated branching tubes, a Divine workmanship in central and right and left lobe, and the hepatic artery through which flow the crimson tides. Oh. this vital organ is like the eye of God in that it never sleeps. Solomon knew of it, and had noticed either in vivisection or post-mortem what awful attacks sin and dissipation make upon it, until the flat of Almighty God bids the body and soul separate, one it commends to the grave, and the other it sends to judgment. A javelin of retribution. Dot glancing off or making a slight wound, but piercing it from side to side "till a dart strike through his liver." Galen and Hippocrates ascribe to the liver the most of the world's moral depression, and the word melancholy means black bile. I preach to you the Gospel of Health. In taking a diagnosis of diseases of the soul you must also take a diagnosis of diseases of the body. As if to recognize this, one whole book of the New Testament was written by a physician. Luke was a medical doctor, and he discourses much of the physical conditions, and he tells of the good Samaritan's medication of the wounds by pouring in oil and wine, and recognizes hunger aa a hindrance to- hearing the Gospel, so that the five thousand were fed; he also records the sparse diet of the prodigal away from home, and the extinguished eyesight of the beggar by the wayside, and lets us know of the hemorrhage ef the wounds of the dying Christ and the miraculous post-mortem resuscitation. twenty, and 1 *m here;" pr U wtfl nq;, JjOfTJP HjL$4&&Ot> "Here Ja tht eonrequecca of sitting a tastl* ft*** and Ear—neatly half day w;th wqt feet;" or It wUl nan Cfcaanssao Bneus*mm ''Thlajsja^sre l ajfre stacked my it*- ^^^PSUBBltiJL.^ fast e1)(wftrp»ts;u0k instead *f worda,m, Ike ttfrne-qntter wfllXdnlnel for an epi- / __ ta>h on-trie t£mbe*plbtWQ figures— - - - ^ ^ vtnu«rw<»»ww abftn- [ n>wely, a dart and. a" Mver.

In his letter of the «*n*i! date, describing the same places a** a;march over the same road, the writer can scarcely find words to set /ortB the suffering, impatience and disgust existing around him.

Edward Payson, sometimes so far up on the Mpunt that it seemed as if the centripetal force of earth could no longer hold hira, sometimes through a physical disorder was so far down that it seemed as if the nether world would clutch him. Poor William Cowper was a most excellent Christian, and will be loved in the Christian church as long as It alngs his hymns beginning "There is a fountain ^llleeV w4th blood/* ' ^ v for a closer walk with God," "What various hindrances we meet," and "God moves In a mysterious way.'.' Yet was he so overcome of melancholy, or black bile, that it was only through the mistake of the cab driver who took him to a wrong place, instead of the river bank, that he did not commit suicide. Spiritual condition so mightily affected by the physical state, what a great opportunity this gives to the Christian physician, for he can feel at the same time both the pulse of the body and the pulse of the soul, and he can administer to both at once, and if medicine is needed he can give that, and if spiritual counsel is needed he can give that—an earthly and a Divine prescription at the same time— and call on not only the apothecary of earth, but the pharmacy of heaven! Ah, that is the kind of doctor I want at my bedside, one that cannot only count out the right number of drops, but who can also pray. That is the kind of .doctor T have had in my houje when s.ckness or death came. I do not want any of your profligate or atheistic doctors around my loved ones when the balances of life are trembling. A doctor who has gone through the medical college, and in dissecting room has traversed the wonders of the human mechanism, and found no God in any of the labyrinths, is a fool, and cannot doctor me or mine. But, oh, the Christian doctors! What a comfort they have been in many of our households! And they ought to have a warm place in our prayers as well as praise on our tongues. My object at this point is not only to emoliate the criticisms of those in good health against those in poor health, but to show Christian people who are atrabilious what is the matter with them.

I have seen a mother after six weeks' watching over a family of children down with scarlet fever, with a glory around her pale and wan face that surpassed the angelic. It all depends on how you got your sickness and in what battle your wounds. If we must get sick and worn out, let It be in God's service and in th'o effort to make the world good. Not in the service of sin. No! No! One of the most pathetic scenes that I ever witness, und I often see it, is that of men or women cjnverted ln>.the fifties or sixties or seventies wanting to be useful, but they so served the world and Satan in the earlier part of tljeir life that they have no physical energy left for the service of God. They sacrificed ' nerves, muscles, lungs, heart and liver on the wrong altar; They fought on the WTOng-"BtdB, antmow, when their sword^Ja^Jl hacked up and their ammunition all gone, they enlist for Emmanuel. When the high-mettled cavalry horse, which that man spurred into many a cavalry charge with champing bit and flaming eye and neck clothed with thunder, Js.worn out and spavined and ring-boned and spring-halt, he rides up to the great Captain of our Salvation on the white horse and offers his services. With such persons might have been, through the good habits of a lifetime, crashing their battle-ax through the helmeted iniquities, they are spending their days and nights in discussing the best way of curing their indigestion, and quieting their jangled nerves,1 and rousing their laggard appetite, and trying to extract the dart from their outraged liv,er. Better cflfeverted late than never! Oh, yes; for they will get %o heaven. But they wtlKkS afoot when they might have wneeled up the steed hills of the sky in Elijah's chariot. There is an old hymn that we used to sing in the country meeting house when I was a boy, and I remember how the old folks' votjss "frembled with emotion while they sang/it I have forgotten all but two lines, but those lines are the peroration of my sermon: ' / 'Twill save us from a thousand snares To mind religion young. 1 1 ' ' / 'I .

There Is a good old maxim which runs as followsy \"in time of peace prepare for war," and this is a* true in connection with, the question of diet in health as in other things. Too many people assume that because they enjoy fairly good health, no improvement heed be effected in their diet, but that this position is eminently untenable none who carefully consider the subs-' /ject will deny. Those whose practice brings them into contact with the wealthier classes have frequently an opportunity of estimating the bad effects of improper diet.

The apeeia^eomtuittee of the Michigan houae'oicepreaentativea, appointed to investigate the charges in relation to the recent pardon Lag of Convict Wbcom from Jackson prison has repouted that the pardon waa irregular, intimating that Railroad Commissioner Weesetkia waa responsible for it; regorumg testimony that Wessellus was to get 1600 for his influenoe in securing the pardon, and concluding with the statement that Wesseltaa had in- «*lted, not only the committee, but Che- legislature itself, in refusing to etaawer a subpoena instructing him to appear before the committee to testify. Then the committee called attention t o the law under which this Offense '<night be puntehed. The legislature has the authority to punish him for Contempt, with a maximum penalty of five years in state's prison, a 91,000 fine or a year in a county jail. The governor is given a rap for pardoning Wixora without a recommendation from either the prison warden or €he pardon board. The report also declares that without the knowledge of the warden or Other officials of the prison, Deputy Warden Wiersma interested himself in the matter of obtaining a pardon for Alls convict on the supposition that he would receive at lease S3,000 for his services in that direction and that Deputy Wiersma visited Lansing and succeeded in interesting Mr. Wessellus In 4he matter. Railroad Commissioner Wessellus has sent to the house a communication in which he says that he was necessarily absent from the city when the investt- ^gation was bein^, held which his only reason for not testifying before the •committee. He denies that he ever -thought of receiving 9500 for his efforts in behalf of Wlxom and says that his -only reason for bis work for the pardon was his confidence in Deputy Warden Wiersma, who had solicited his The F I T M U M U a j Die.

Cabinet Crisis Feared In Hpalu. A heated debate in the Spanish senate at Madrid was followed by exulting tflsoussious iu the lobbies at the elose of the session, and a dispute occurred between the duke of Tetuan, minister of foreign affairs, and Senor Comas, a Liberal senator, which ended in the duke boxing the senator's ears. The minister of foreign affairs at once resigned and the Liberal minority decided that it would attend no more sessions of the senate until the duke had made ample apology to Senator Comas and to the Liberal party. Later the duke and Comas selected seconds preparatory to fighting a duel but the seconds decided that as the aggressions were reciprocal a duel was not neesssary. The Spanish premier, Senor Canovas del Castillo refused to accept the resignation of the duke of Tetuan because, he said, the government could not dispense with his services as. minister of foreign affairs, as he aione was acquainted with and able to conduct important and delicate pending negotiations with foreign governments (meaning the United States). The Liberals now absent themselves from the sessions of both branches of the cortes, and many of them predict that Premier Canovas will be thrown from power in a short time. Political passions are thoroughly excited and it is thought a ministeral crisis will result. The case will be carried to the supreme court The books of ex-City Clerk Fred J. McMutrie, of Three Rivers, have been examined by experts and a shortage was found of 91,337.17, which McMutrie refunded. He says he will make good any further shortage which may be discovered. The supreme court has decided that the selling of adulterated foods or drinks, is a violation of the pure food laws whether the dealer knew the article sold was adulterated or not. This will greatly aid the state food commissioner/ Neater Frovancher, of Menominee, was experimented upon by a hypnotist recently, and soon after was seized with a dangerous fever, and when he recovered he had almost lost his voice and had been able to speak only in a whisper ever since. A system of test holes was sunk in various parts of Bay county in search of coal deposits and the results prove that an immense bed of coal of excellent quality lies under all the land about Bay City, It looks now as if that city was to enjoy a boom from the discovery of such, immense coal fields. Cuban Inaurgente Win Another Victory. Apparent!}' reliable news of the most important insurgent success iu months has just reached Havana. Gen. Calixto Garcia and (.Jen. Habi fell on a Spanish force which was carrying food and supplies from Manzanillo to Bayamo, captured the convoy, routed Gen. Lono's columns and pursued him so vigorously that he fled to the coast with the remnant of his brigade, and took a ship at Cabocoruz for Manzaniilo. This engagement, which is regarded by Cubans at Havana as. more important than any battle_ since Carcariiicara, goes to show how hapless the Spanish are in the country east of the trocha, which is well called Cuba Libre.

Spanish Fire on a BrltUh VeeseL After being twice chased by Spanish gunboats and passing through a perfect storm of shot, which splashed in the water across the vessel's bows, the British fruit steamer Ethelred arrived Et Philadephia after a five days run from Port Antonio, Jamaica. The Ethelred was chased on both the outgoing and inbound trips while just off Cape Masisi by a Spanish gunboat, notwithstanding the fact that the British flag was raised. For two hours the chase was kept up, enlivened now and then by a solid shot throwing up a sheet of white spray just ahead of the vessel's bows, but the Ethelred was too swift for the Spaniard.

The colonel says in this connection that unless the people elect representatives who represent them instead of the railroads the people deserve to be oppressed. He chargea that the act Bpeech of Senator Thompson was prepared for him by the pailrpad companies, and characterizes much of the speech as fiction and a barefaced attempt to prevert facts. The House in coirfmittee of the whole agreed to an excise bill, by which it is hoped to raise 9320,()00 per year by a tax of oue cent per gallon on all beer, ale and porter manufactured or imported into the state. The bill creates 33 new officers, to be known as excise, inspectors, with a salary of 9i*000 per year. The House passed the following bills: For better protection against fraud in primary elections; appropriating f29,- 1)00 for the Central -Michigan normal school at Mt. Pleasant; providing for the appraisal of property sold under foreclosure sale and to prohibit sale for less than two-thirds of appraised values; increasing the number of stockholders allowed military companies and authorising them to rent their armories; providing for a similarity of studies in Michigan normal schools; allowing building and loan association to create a reserve fund. The Senate passed the uniform text book bill with only one negative vote—Campbell. The bill will not go into effect until 1899, and between now and then the school districts must vote whether they will adopt the free text book or the uniform text book system. Other bills passed by the Senate: Prescribing an agricultural course for country schools; to prohibit paying labor in store orders or other script not legal tender; for a lien upon horses and other animals for the cost of shoeing same; appropriating 923,000 fbr improvements at the agricultural college, including an electric lighting plant; appropriating 964,767 for the state public school. The beginning of the closing week of the Icgislalivij aession did not sho\y any great desire on- the part of the legislators to push matters through. The Senate held a short session in committee of the whole where the inheritance tax bill was sent away to its last slumber; the bill was killed to provide for maintenance of minor children when divorce is granted the parents; and the House cut in the mining school appropriation was non-concurred in. The Senate passed the following bills: Requiring township boards to publish annually an itemized statement of township finances; fixing the per diem of members of the railroad crossing board at 95; permitting the annual meeting of stockholders of Michigan railroads to be held anywhere in the state: repealing obsolete laws; repealing the law for the collection of cereal statistics; taxing the gross Michigan earnings of express companies 3 per cent. The Seuate knocked out the bill permitting the townships between Lansing and St. Johns to grant electric railway franchises. Senator Thompson was responsible for its defeat. The House session was a little more lively and the following bills were passed: Making the offense of attempting to wreck or rob railroad trains a felony; for the incorporation of sooic- Jq^t m iiknnhnnt nf t.hn HfliUfi Tfftad to adopt the conference committee report on the Merriam railroad specific bill and only o n e - R e p .

The committee of the whole agreed to the anti-trust bill which provides a penalty for all persons entering Uito agreements which tend to lessen free competition in the importation or sale of articles in the state, or which tend to advance the rates or control the priee of any such articles to the producer or consumer. The bill provides tbafuopropeTtJy ahall be exempt from execution under the terms of the law, find declares void'any co-partnership unless affidavit is made every year to to the secretary of state that the partnership is formed to do businese under the provisions of the bilL It also exclndes from the state all foreign oorporations that do not do business under the terms of the measure.

The anti-trust bill waa killed, owing to Rep. Adams, who contended that the bill was a dangerous one. Tlie House also passed the following: Increasing the- franchise fee of corporations from H to 1¾ mills on the dollar, and making the minimum fee 920 instead of 95; appropriating 912,000 for the state factory inspectors, an increase of 94,000 over old appropriation; preventing appeals from justice courts in cases 'involving less than 925. The House concurred in the Senate amendments to tbe Graham uniform text book bill, and all it needs now is the signature of the governor to make It a law. The Senate passed the following bills: Providing half-pay pension for disabled and retired Detroit police, providing it never exceeds #50 per month; amending the divorce law so as to protect the interests of minor children; providing that the reserve funds of mutual and co-operative benefit associations shall" be deposited in the state treasury; changing the time for the sale of delinquent tax lands from December to May. Senator Bfckestee's hanging bill was favorably reported by the Senate committee on state affairs. Gov. Pingree again "stirred up the animals" by sending a message to both the House and the Senate_calling attention to the numerous bills of greatest important which are being allowed to-die in each of the—houses' without any effort being made to act upon them. He also objected to the passing of large appropriation bills which were not brought in until within a few days of tbe time set for adjournment, thus preventing proper and intelligent investigation of them. The governor, therefore, asked that the session be extended at least two weeks that the bills mentioned might be disposed of and the appropriations investigated. Wheu the message was received the Senate and ' House each had a bitter fight over i t The House passed a resolution making the day of adjournment June 14. The Senate refused to concur. The House then appointed a conference committee.

For a Healthy Existence.—That's Why the Kidneys so often Fail. Nature has provided a certain amount of work for every organ of the human body; overtax them and disease eventually foUows. There is not one portion of our organism that fa so overworks as the kidneys; on them is placed the important function of Altering the blood of rh« ImpiiHtlaa wrlilMi naturally farm in t.ln» 1 fr? h'imnTi rtwi?: \ regular action of life and digestion. The kidneys are consequently termed the sewerage of the system; clog up this sewer, and the blood becomes tainted with poisonous uric acid, which brings on disease in many forma. The back is the first to show {hi* stoppage. From there comes the waroiQf note; it should be heeded, mad the kidneys receiveprompt attention.

'WAS only a fragment of their story* but the great event* of life aU e o n e s to us In fragments. His name was Jason. Rachel wan his daughter. He was not a man of prepossessing . appearance. His coat - was rough and heavy and. reached almost to his feet. He wore a black slouch hat which waa bound down over the ears and converted into a shape resembling an oldfashioned poke bonnet by a red woolen nubia which was wound round his head and tied under his chin. He had a bushy, red beard, deep sunken blue eyes and heavy red eyebrows. The little girl was dark and thin and wiry. Her garb was a symphony in quakeriah gray. There was a gray hood with a three Inch frill that stood out around her eager face like a semicircular fortification, a gray cloak, gray mittens, gray stockings and gray cloth overshoes. She sat very close beside the man, and every little while she .looked up at those portions of his face that were visible through the nubia, the bat and the coat collar, and laid her little hand on his and stroked it affectionately. They did not speak for several minutes. Silence, with the exception of the rat-a-tat-tat of frozen shoes against the cold, wet floor of the car, seemed to be the rule against which none but the conductor dared infringe as he now and then called out the names of the intersecting streets. At length the man remdved one of his gloves, unbuttoned his coat and took from the inside pocket a letter which was creased and soiled from being read and re-folded many times. "What time did she say she would be here?" he asked, as he handed the letter to the little girl. "Look again, Rachel." "At half-past 4," she said, after having applied herself to the written sheet for a minute or two. "Are you .sure? I wish you'd read that part aloud again, my dear. I don't want to make any mistake." " T w i l l be at Polk street depot at 4:30 Saturday afternoon,'" she read in a shrill, sharp voice, that trembled with the excitement she had tried In vain to repress. "It must be_nearly that time now, ain't it?" he asked, Thxiously. The little girl turned round and looked at the dial of a large clock that had been placed in the window of a drug store they were passing then. "No," she said, "it's only 8. We've got lots of time." She gave him the letter again, but he did not put lt back in his pocket There was another short silence. Presently he leaned toward her and said In a subdued voice, that was evidently meant for her ear alone: "Read It through, won't you, Rachel? I can't hardly believe it. It seems too good to be true. Sometimes I think I must be dreamln'. Let me hear again what she says, my dear." The little girl looked round the crowded car half fearfully as though *"•T una SKC5 t v -i; - 1 sa- 3 = " 'lQr.lifa, since leaving you, has been one continual season of-anfferini < Rev morse for the grief I hsrtw oanntn gste ZfSZ All those creeping, crawling, stinging sensations that combine to make up the tortures of any itching disease of the skin are instantly relieved and permanently cared by Doan's Ointment.

His hand rested over his eyes for some time after the conclusion of the letter. "It must be half-past 4 now, ain't it?" he asked, at length. , "No, It's only a little past 3. Father," and her dark eyes gntw very wistful, "tell me all about it once more, won't you, before we see her? We'll never say anything about it after that, will we, father?" The car dragged slowly along. The cold grew more intense. The passengers were dividing their time between reviling the weather, the conductor and the street car company, and listening to the only conversation that enlivened the downtown trip. But all discomforts and annoyances were unheeded by the man in the rough coat and tho little girl in gray, for whom the world held nothing that afternoon except themselves and the woman who was to come in at the Polk street depot at half-past 4. "It's been ten years aince I saw *er." he said. "You was a little teenty thing then, only a year old. She went away one night, Feb. 17 it was. I remember that Just as well as anything. She left me because I didn't know much: because I was ign'r'nt—that was what she told the neighbors—an' I know it was so, because she had often said the same thing to me. I couldn't write nor even read, an' she ought to have knowed better'n to marry me, she said. I was good to her an' kind an' tried to make up for it in other ways, but she couldn't stand my lgn'r'nce any longer—that was what she told the neighbors— a M* I guess It's about right. An' I d o c t know's I blame^er much. The neighbors did, but I never said anything about l t It must be pretty hard for a bright, well-read woman to be tied to an ugly old man like me. The only thing I ever blamed 'er for was for leavln' you, beln' 's you was such a teenty thing. But I brought you up alone the best I could. I ain't done bad by you, have I, Rachel?" The little girl was crying softly, and her only answer was to press his hand, which Bhe held In both her own. *M never -heard from ! er -after-ihaL.. They went south—her an' the music teacher who boarded next door—at least, that's what the neighbors said. About six years ago the blacksmith on tbe corner run across 'em one day down in Florida. But I knowed she'd come back. I felt it in my bones. The day after she went away I commenced to get ready for 'er. I made up my mind she should find things improved when she come back. I couldn't make much change in myself—it's hard work to teach an old dog new tricks, you know —so I turned my whole attention, to you. I've tried to bring you up so she wouldn't be ashamed of you when she got back. And she won't be. Anybody'd be proud of you, Rachel. You know a good deal, don't you, my dear? You know readin' an' writln' an' hisf r y an' geography, don't you, Rachel?" "And algebra," supplemented the little girl. "Yes, and algebry. An' you c'n play an' sing, too. can't you, Rachel?" "Yes, and say six words in French."

Canada has barred out Oorbett a»d Fitzsimmons as reproduced in the kinetoscope. Canada evidently believes in the duty of a government to conserve the morals of the people.—Ex.

Does t h e farmer ever think when he goes to the field to work and takes his j u g of water that the team are liable to become as thirsty as himself? Fix u p a half barrel with a cover and take it to the field, and now and then when you take a drink yourself, give the horses a few swallows. If they are warm allow them a very little at a time.

The other day a couple of men who said they were canvassing for a preparation for oiling floors so that no dust would settle on them, struck Cassopolis. They showed samples of the work and secured orders from two merchants for seveu gallons of their solution at *1.25 per gallon. They went to another store, purchased seven gallons of a cheap oiling solution at twenty-five cents a gallon and with this stuff filled their orders clearing 17 by a few minutes of the easiest kind of worl^ When the deception was discovered th<j swindlers had left town. Are We Degenerating We olip the following from "Our Dumb Animals" which shows to what depths of brutality many of our citizens are going: "Last summer or fall thousands of Cleveland people attended a great public exhibition of butchering for prizes offered to butchers who could, in a given time, butcher and dress the greatest number of animals. On an elevated platform covered with blood, in sight of the thousands of spectators, t h e animals were butchered and dressed. With such pleasant entertainments for all ages of its citizens and such instructions for the children in its gpblic schools we should think [unless there is some interference by "Bands of Mercy" or otherwise] that Cleveland may in time become a most desirable residence for certain classes of American citizens, and possibly in one, of its largest public squares may one of these days be erected a French guillotine to chop off the heads of prominent men and women for special amusement on public occasions and perhaps un-1 del the influence of these'scientific' teachings, now being so widely introduced into our institutions of learning [if not interfered with by humane education and "Bands of Mercy"] a similar form of amusement may be adopted in other American cities." Hundreds of thousands have been iuduced to try Chamberlain's Coutfh Keinedy, by reading what it has done for o'hers!. and having tested its merit for themselves are today its warmest friends.

The latter called a carriage and took the contumacious broker to the jail, where the cell which he was to occupy was inspected. The marshall spoke highly of Chapman and Chapman patted him on the back. When . Chapman entered the jail a prisoner he found himself in the very lap of luxury. He has a colored servant from the Arlington Hotel to serve his meals. And, strangest of all, the warden has provided him with an adjoining cell, where a desk is to be come to a different conclusion. A young man can, lepst of all, profane good taste in dress, no matter how geueral a foolish fad- may become. He is always being judged by some one older than himself and many a business man judges a young man character by his dress. The. colored shirt of violent color or desigh is not the young man's friend;- it is his enemy. He does not impress people with his good taste by wearing it; on the contrary, he shows the weakness in his character of a tendency to unwise imitatiou. The quiet, gentlemanly garb is ins, and he should adhere to it. Employers Ipok not for the latest styles i • • .. > a l v i ' , ' '\e world for M-V y ,t rbenm, > • ..1 c i -''.nds.chill •-I-.

Thefe is a happy medium between a black tie and the violent cravat of rainbow hue. That is where good taste comes in and a young man must exercise it. The cblered shirt is "possible for him, but within limitations. The pin dot or stripe is not offensive; on the contrary.it is becoming. But brilliant cravats, fancy waist-coats loud and large 'checks' in clothes and extreme colors iu shirts are not for the young man of taste, refinement or of future standing. Nor are they in one whit better taste for the man of mature years.

While a similar appearance may be caused by plant lice, the true curl-leaf is due to a parasitic fungus, which generally appears soon after the leaves open, and which is most troublesome when the weather is wet and cold. The leaves attacked generally drop from the trees, and if many "of them are lost, a proportionate number of fruits will drop from bearing trees, while it seldom amounts to the entire loss of crop, except in young trees, check to j - ^ . ^ - - - - - - ^ - ^ , , , : - ; | - ()1 the growth and the energy l o s U n \ m v i o n H o u s e : T J u r t o r , 7 ^ : ^ T ^ H I putting out new leaves will often have quite & serious effect upon the health of the trees, and in season when the disease is troublesome the expense of spraying the trees will be repaid.—M.

Her own face doeB not - - - ,. , appear in her large collection, T n c or bays, and secure him a policy of engraving on official papers will not be changed* it is said, until her marriage.

There could be no objection, however, to a provision that the enactments of the Connect cut legislature and of the legislatures of all the other states should be translated Into good and unmistakable English. An Interesting dietary experiment is being made In the woman's department of the University of Chicago. The women who served with food similar to that served to men's athletic teams when in regular training. AH the food is carefully weighed and analyzed before it is served, and the viands arranged according to their relative value as muscle strengthened. Each girl must eat the precise amount of fat and of albumen each day, which has been found by careful study to be needed by the human system, and eating too much is an evil which is especially guarded against. * The following definition of a bucket shop Is given: An establishment ann-_ ducted nominally and ostensibly for the transaction of a grain or stock exchange business, but the proprietor ~TaSe8~one slde~of every deal that made in his place, while the patron takes the other side—no article being bought or sold in any public market. The margins deposited with the "bucket, shop" proprietor by the patron, are nothing but the patron's stakes to the wager and are appropriated by the proprietor when the fluctuations of price reach the limit of the deposit—-one part y (the proprietor) to the bet acting as stakeholder. The riiimUiisseUins charged by the "bucket-shop" are odds in ^8 favor, and necessary in order to maintain the pretense of being legitimate brokers actually making the transaction on a public exchange. The "bucket shop" proprietor is ready to take all deals ottered om any commodity that fluctuates in price, he may call himself a commission aemhcaU or disguise We business under the form of * osrporation enterprise, or exchange, but he Is still a oomsnon gasafeier. The interest of a proprietor of a "bucket ahop" is at all times opposed to that of his patrons, as the profits of the shop ens measured by the loss of the petrosal "'Backet shops" are ™*A~WT* a s criminal and pernicious by statute i n almost every state ia the union. They should not be confounded with the great public markets of the world, whefre htsjel' Mil teller, producer and Hfe insurance, so that the present home may be well maintained after he Is dead. The most persistent, most overpowering enemy of the working classes Is intoxicating liquor. It is the anarchist of the .centuries, and has boycotted, and is now boycotting, the body and mind and soul of American labor. It is to It a worBe foe than monopoly and worse than associated cipital. It annually swindles industry out of a large percentage of Its earnings. It holds out Its blasting solicitations to the mechanic or operative on his way to work, and at the noon spell, and on his way home at eventide; on Saturday, when the wages are paid, it snatches a large part of the money that might come into the family, and sacrifices it among the saloonkeepers. Stand the saloons of this country side by side, and it is carefully estimated that they would reach from New York to Chicago. "Forward, march," says the drink power, "and take possession of the American nation!" The drink business is pouring its vitriolic and damnable liquids down the throats of hundreds of thousands of laborers, and while the ordinary strikes are ruinous both to employers and employes, I proclaim a strike universal against strong drink, which, if kept up. will be the relief of the working classes and the salvation of the nation. I will undertake to say that there Is not a healthy laborer In the United States who, within the next ten years, if he will refuse all intoxjcatlng beverage and be saving, may Hot become a capitalist on a sinair scale. Our country in a year spends one billion five hundred million and y~thousand dollars for drTnkT"TJf course the working classes do a great deal of this expenditure. Careful statistics show that the wage-earning classes of Great Britain expend in liquors one hundred million pounds, or five hundred million dollars a year. Sit down and calculate, O working man! how much you have expended in these directions. Add it all up. Add up what your neighbors have expended, and realise that instead of answering the beck of other people you might have been your own capitalist. When you deplete a working man's physical energy yon deplete his capital, t h e stimulated workman, gives out before the unstimulated workman. sfy father said: "I became a temperance men in early life; because I no- * * * * * * t h e sHsrrest «*td tnw*r*hough 4i-e*ns atyeteatty weaker than other alette**,-I eojsM hold-out losspsr• thas> thejr^ They took stimulants.

When they are preparing for a regatta, or for a ball club, or for an athletic wrestling, they abstain. Our working people will be wiser after awhile, and the money they fling away on hurtful Indulgences they will put, Into co-operative association, and so become capitalists. If the working man put down his wages and then take his expenses and spread them out so they will just equal, ue is not wise. I know working men who' are In a perfect fidget until they; get pld of their last dollar. - • The-following clrcumatauces came under our observation: A young man worked hard to earn his six or seven hundred dollars yearly. Marriage day came. The bride had inherited five hundred dollars from her grandfather. She spent every dollar of It on the wedding dress, Then they rented two rooms in the third story. Then the young man took extra evening employment. It almost extinguished his eyesight. Why did he add evening employment to the day employment? To get money. Why did he want to get money? To lay up something for a rainy day? No. To get hlB life insured, so that In case of his death hta wife would not be a beggar? No. Ho put the extra evening work toThe day work that he might get a hundred and fifty dollars to get his wife a sealskin coat. The sister of the bride heard of this achievement, and was not to be eclipsed. She was very poor, and she sat up working nearly all tne night for a great while until she bought a sealskin coat. I have not heard of the result on that street. The street was full of those who are on small IncDmc.^ but I suppose the contagion spread, and that everybody had a sealskin coat, and that the people came out and cried, practically, not literally: "Though the heavens fall, we must have a sealskin coat!" I was out west, and a minister of the Gospel told me, In Iowa, that his church and neighborhood had been impoverished by the fact that they put mortgages on their farms in order to send their families to the Philadelphia Centennial^ Itjivas^o^resjjeclahlfi not to go to the Centennial. Between such evils and pauperism there is a very short step. The vast majority of chil* dren In your alms houses are there because their parents are drunken, lazy, or recklessly improvident. I have no sympathy for skinflint saving, but I plead for Christian prudence. You say it Is impossible now to lay up anything for a rainy day. I know it, but we are at the daybreak of national prosperity. Some people think it is mean to turn the gas low when they go out of the parlor. They feel embarrassed if the door bell rings before they have the hall lighted. They apologize for the plain-meal, if you surprise them at the table. Well, it is mean if it is only to pile up a miserly hoard. But if it be to educate your children, if it be to giyjMiiore help to your wife when she does not feel strong, if It be to keep your funeral day from being horrible beyond all endurance, because it is to be the disruption and annihilation of the domestic circle—if it be for that, then it i s magnificent. jageous vhln«*'««rrTf1^XtT«m:3rdJl^H:| drink In any pthe; way, he would sell m**y aos*fe have) bean broken ep^tt^ that way n p o n e buVi)»V know*, 0**} is there anything ~tnat wllf sol destroy > a saa^ fop this life, a n o ^ a m n l*MM«!r the life that ie to oomeT "Do not tel) me thatJMgjAjfc cab $ e happy when he The aria fruit plants J bv Noah when he .theslthy tarouga r lflett* ater uugar subice whatever, but. has hi* wine fully urfd byfrekt aft: and careful handling, Texati ha* a uinalc yatch. of live acres that contains nickel, Kola, stiver, lead and tin, besides a large variety of very rare metals.

I was in a room in New Y o r k where thero were many men who had been re-[aimed from drunkenness. I heard their testimony, and for the first time In my life there flashed out a truth I never understood. They said, "We were victims of strong drink. We tfled to give it up; but always" failed^ but! somehow since we gave our hearts to Christ, he has taken care of us." I believe^ that the time will' soon como when the grace of God will show its power not only to save man's soul, but his body, and reconstruct, purify, elevate and redeem It. 1 verily believe that, although you feel grappling at the roots of your tongue^an almost omnipotent thirstj it-- you will give your heart to God He will help you by His grace to conquer. Try it. It is your last chance. I have looked off upon the desolation. Sitting next to you in our religious assemblages there are a good many people in awful peril; and, Judging from ordinary circumstances, there is not one chance in five thousand that they will get clear of It. There are men in every congregation from Sabbath to Sabbath of whom I must make the remark, that if they do not change their course, withm ten years they will, as to their bodies, lie down in drunkards' gravW; and as to their souls, lie down in a drunkard's perdition. I know that Is an awful thing to say, but I cannot help saying it. Oh. beware! You have not yet been captured.' Beware! Whether the beverage be poured in golden chalice or pewter mug, in the foam at the top, in white letters, let there be spelled out to your soul, "Beware!" When the books of judgment are Opened, and ten million drunkards come up to get their -doon^ I want you to boar wltnooa th I, in the fear of God and in the love for your soul, told you, with all affecttarnraid with all kindness", to beware of that which has already exerted its influence upon your family, blowing out some of its lights—a premonition of the blackness of darkness for ever. Oh, if you could only hear intemperance with drunkards' bones drumming on the head of the liquor cask the Dead March of immortal souls, methinks the very glance of a wine cup would make yon shudder, and the col' or of liquor would make you think of the blood of the soul, and the foam on the top of the cup would remind you of the froth on the maniacs lips; and yon would kneel down and pray God that, rather than your children should become captives of this evil habit, you would like to carry them out some bright spring day to the cemetery, and p«t them away to the last steep, until at the call of the south wind the flowers would cosse up all over the grave —swae* prapbecies of the resurrection! God has a balm for such a wound; but what flower of comfort ever on a drunkard's sepulchre?

Tney would have liked to have been la my place, I do not doubt. But there was no time to lose. There were certain things tobe seento, withoutdelay. The first was, to inquire after my mother. Away, then, we rattled to Brixton. I directed the driver to stop wMJhin half a mile of the place, wishing to walk thither, as I used to do In the old days. What varied emotions agitated me ' as Pearl and I walked toward the familiar spot where the sign $f "Beecroft, Mariner," used to stand! My little girl saw that I was agitated, and did not disturb the current of my thoughts, except by a fond and sympathising pressure of the arm. Great changes had taken place. New streets had bean formed; new houses had been built; old landmarks bad disappeared. But' when I turned the lane in which our eaftfege used to stand, I taw with delight thai ty was •till there; aid as surely as I lived, the fondly remembered device of "Beecroft, Mariner," was over the parlor window.

She had left the neighborhood when she was turned out of the bouse, and had not been seen in it since. Upon further In* quiry, I ascertained that there would be no difficulty in obtaining possession of the cottage, providing I was willing to pay a certain sum of money to her husband. To be brief, I concluded the arrangement the samo day, and the next morning I took possession by consent of the landlord, of whom I purchased the furniture at a price satisfactory, I am sure, to him, and quite as satisfactory to me. Had he asked me double the sum he named, I would have given It willingly. So there I was once more In the old house at home. To have obtained one of my wishes thus easily was an omen of good luck. "You aro mistress here, my dear child," I said to Pearl; and I explained to her how everything used to be arranged in the old times,- and-what pride we took in the shells which my father and I had brought home. She listened attentively, as though she was learning a lesson, and after giving me a dozen kisses, became excitedly and delightfully busy. I told her to engage a girl to assist her in the cottage, and upon her saying she did not want one, I replied that it was necessary, as i should be a great deal away from home for a few days. "I"must find my mother, Pearl," I said. "I must not lose an hour." But my inquiries appeared likely to lead to no satisfactory result, until an old man told me that X might learn something if I could find the address of a woman who had lived in the neighborhood for a few weeks some eight or nine years ago, he thought, and who got her living by her needle. "Or tried to get her living, I should say," he added in correction, "and didn't succeed. Leastways, no one abdut here would employ her, and she was out of favor with everybody." "For-what reason?" I-inquiredr — "You had better ask the woman," said the man; "I'm not good at tittletattUng." . I did not follow his advice, having had enough in my time of gossiping women's tongues. I did a more sensible thing. I went at once to a private detective, and placed the matter In his hands, promising to reward him liberally if he succe^led. Of my mother I gave full particulars; of the woman who would be likely to give Information of her I could supply him Only with the slight clue which I had gained from the old man. "Leave it to me," said he; "I'll find one or. both in three days, if they're to be found at all." I had no doubt but that this was a boast; yet, for once a boaster's word was good. He came to me on the night of the third day. Pearl and I were sitting in the little parlor at Brixton. It was then ten o'clock at night, and a heavy November fog enveloped the streets In darkness. Inside it was bright enough. A cheerful fire was blazing, and the room was warm and cozy. Everything in the houoc was arranged by my lither of che voices of the. ah#U* CouJ* I hear them now, what would they saj to me? I placed one to my e a t and with closed eyea^lstaned to the •weet confused murmur. There was bar mony in It, but no design; presently, however, came something that wai dear to me. In the midst of the soft murmur a few words of Mabel's favorite song Shaped themselves, and 1 heard her sweet and false voioe singing to me. "In faith abiding, I'll still be true," Ah, me! In those i words she had sworn to be faithful to me. How had that vow been kept? Woman's Nerves. , Mr*. PUtt Talks About Hyateri*. $<ii CHAPTER XXVI. AROUSED myself from my reverie, and' my heart throbbed violently as my gaze fell upon Pearl, who was kneeling before the fire, looking with tender love into my face. Surely it must be a continuation of my dream that cauaed me for a moment to believe it was Mabel herself whose eyes met mine! So did she look as I opened my arms to her, aa I opened them now to Pearl, who raised herself and sat upon my knee, embracing me. W« were disturbed by a knock at the door. I went to the door, and the detective I had employed stood before me. "We have found her," he said, curtly. "My mother!" I cried. "No," he replied; "the other one." With glad eagerness Pearl hand* me my cap. "Good night, dear child," J,said, kissing her. "Go to bed at once, and do not open the door till you hear my voice. I may be out late." I waited outside the Btreet door till I heard the key turned. "Good-night," I cried again. "Good-night, daddy," she called out; "I shall keep awake till you come home." "A pretty lass, that daughter of yours," said the detective, as we walked away. I did not undeceive him as to the relationship, but his remark made a strange impression upon me. "Have we far to go?" I asked. "We had better ride, I think," said he. "We are going to Whitechapel." By the time we reached our destination it was nearly eleven o'clock. But few words were exchanged. My thoughts sufficiently occupied me, and my companion was not disposed to be loquacious. Yet I observed ~him occasionally by the dim light of a street lamp regarding me with a curious and •fl When j» nerve or a set of nerves supplying say organ in the body with its due nutriment grows weak, that organ languishes.

I desired the cabman to wait for us and we turned into the street. "A miserable_place for a woman to live in," I observed, noticing the signs of squallor and poverty around us.

Care and Preparation of Cream and Butter. 1—Cream raised by grav ity pro cesses:— In the old shallow setting system, the cream is allowed to sour on the milk; as the method is practiced on many farms it is not attractive. This is not due to the method itself so much as to the condition under which it is carried on. The farmer's wife has gener ally to fight discouraging conditions at all times, and more especially in the winter time. In cold weather the milk is of the poorest quality on account of scant feeding, cold and dark unhealthy stables, where the animals are standing on manure with poor floor drainage, or no drainage at all. The milk pails are variegated with the marks of slovenliness, and the milk consequently expos- ' "For three years we have never been without Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house" says A. H. Patter with E. C. Atkins & Co., Indianopolis, Ind., and my wife would as soon think of being without flour as a bottle of.this Remedy in the summer season. We have used it with all three of our children and it has never failed to cure—not simply stop pain, but cure absolutely. ed to dung particles and other filth :theee are the conditions and surroundings that make the production of butter in winter a difficult task. During the summer it is quite different, the quality of the milk is the best, owing to the good pastures, The cows are in the fresh and invigorating open air all day long, and they are usually milked in the open air, the udder and hind quarters of the cows are comparatively clean, the milk pai) has a ohance of being exposed to the purifying rays of the sun and good air; besides, the pans, churns and all utensils placed outside for the beneficial action of the sunlight. Of course you are aware of the very great importance played by those very small organisms present at all times in the air of the lower altitudes of the earth's surface, and most of these are generally called under the general name of Bacteria, and in all the numerous changes which take place in cream, butter and. cheese, these bacteria are the agents which are the most important and effective; and the stoutest weapons to fight these objectionable members of this numerous host are pure air, pure water and plenty of sunshine. Again, the lack of neatness frequently found among farmers using this system, comes from their poverty and lack of thorough knowledge. Give the farmer more education in dair sanitation, and the whole dairy business on the farm would be vastly improved. In this system of cream separation the ripening takes place at ~-the-fiaxnfi time_ag the cream-risings A properly soured cream can be obtained in a good deal shorter quired by the ice method! if the Eroqm « kept moderately aud a good atarter is added i milk. The main objection to this method ia, that the tkimmilk sours at the same time aa the oream. This is a serious objection from one point of view, but many farmers complain that they cannot get as good sour milk, when this is made from the sweet skim-milk... The use of this sour milk M* & benefit from one point of viaw, and that is, by the developement of the lactic acid, a safe* guard is formed against the growth in the milk of a large number of infectious bacteria. In the modern system of gravity creaming neither cream nor skimmilk undergoes any appreciable change during the creaming. In this method, as well asin the separating and extracting methods, the fermentation bacteria is not allowed to develope to any great extent, either before or during the rising and separating fo the oream. The means at hand for checking tne fermentation bacteria are 1—Scrupulous cleanliness, as to theperson,the utensils—andihe dairy. 2—Cooling the milk as quickly as possible. 3—Well lighted and well aired and dry creaming room.
