FIRM BUT CONCILIATORY. i r e e e e &epll*» to t h e I'ownr* Mini Offer* a P e a c e f u l uud Honorable Solutlou. Athens: The reply of Greece to the identical notes of the powers is conciliatory in tone., fully recognizing the important objects the powers h a v e in view and offering to withdraw her fleet from Cretan waters. Greece, however, points to the fact that it is impossible for her to withdraw her troops from that island, in view of the d a n g e r of further massacres. On the othe,r hand, Greece .offers to place her troops in,—£ret*r under- the control of the powers in order that they may be available for the restoration of order. Referring1 to the statements made to the effect that 'he Cretans prefer autonomy to annexation to Greece, the g o v e r n m e n t of Greece suggests t h a t the Cretans be ullowed to choose their o w n government. Greece, the reply adds, is convinced that autonomy will not pacify -Crete, and that another chapter in the horrors of Mussulman fanaticism will be added to the six periods of anarchy which have already decimated the island. Continuing, the reply says it is impossible, in view of the past, to advise the Cretans to lay down their arms, holding that this advice' would not be obeyed, even if tendered. The Greek reply also s a y s t h a t since the foreign ships preserved order in Cretan waters a.mi pro'fftit. landing of Turkish troops, the presence of t h e Greek ships is unnecessary, but. it is explained, the Greek arm}' cannot Leave the Christians to the risk of Mussulman fanaticism and the Turkish troops. The-Greek g o v e r n m e n t holds that order in Crete would be immediately restored if t h e powers would have confidence in the Greek troops. and permit them to join in the work of pacifying the island.

Aristocratic European circles were .Istinctly shocked the other day when t was announced that Donna Elvira, daughter of Don Carlos, the pretender to the Spanish throne, had eloped with Dne Folchl, a Roman artist and mar? ried man Don C v l o s immediately Issued a •uanifeeto proclaiming his daughter lead. Don Carlos had married a second time and his daughters did no<' like their new mother. Donna Elvira was in Rome when she met Folchi. She is 25 years old and had money in her own right, so the couple will not starve. She wrote to her father stating .5 DONNA ELVIRA. Aat her reason for elopment was that uer home life was made unhappy by aer stepmother. It seems that eloping is in the air at &ome, for late tolepragphic news brings .he report.that another Italian woman,' the daughter of no less a person than Cri'spi, * a s eloped with a seri^ant.

God has (leclaied that the man who orings wicked devices to pass, will soon be out of that business. Every good man is a lamp which Cod spares from heaven for awhile, to oelp give light to the world. The man has a hard place who has so •nuch religious work on hand, he never has time to pray iny«ecret. No matter what happens, the Christian should insist on believing that 3od is doing all things well. If you are poor, it may be that the Lord wants to show you how rich he :an make you without money. The devil has never been able to make any man dissatisfied with his lot, who had perfect trust in Christ. The time is flying this way on rapid wings, When the only thing that can prosper in this world is righteousness. One reason why the world gains cnowledge.so slowly, is that every child must find but for itself that fire is lot. The man of faith will not be cast lown because there are some people vho seem to be making the devil's servce pay.

A man untrue the comfortable homes of Christendom have at some time celebrated Joyful events by banquet and festivity. Something has happened on the old homestead greater than anything that has ever happened before. A favorite' sen whom the world supposed would become a vagabond and outlaw forever has got tired of sight-seeing and has returned to his father's house. The world said he would never come back. The old man always said his son would come back. He has been looking for him day after day and year after year. He knew he would come back. Now having returned:to his father's house the father proclaims celebration. There is in the' paddock a calf that has been kept up.and fed to utmost capacity, so as to be ready for some, occasion of Joy ihat might come along. Ah! there never would be a grander day on the old homestead than this day. Let the butchers do their work, and the housekeepers bring to the table the smoking meat. The musicians will take their places, and the gay groups will move up and down the floor. All the friends and neighbors are gathered in and an extra supply is sent out to the table of the servants. The father presides at the table and says grace, and thanks God that Ills long-absent boy is home again. Oh! how they, have missed him, how glad they are to have him back: ^ One brother stands pointing at the back door and says, "This is a great ado about nothing; this bad boy should have been chastised instead of greeted; veal is too good for him!" But the father says, "Nothing is too good, nothing is good enough." There sits the young man, glad at the hearty reception, but a shadow of sorrow flitting across his brow at the'remembrance of the trouble he had seen. Alt ready Let the covers lift. Music.

It is because of the joy of their work; the Joy of the harvest field, the Joy of greeting prodigals home to their Father's house. Oh, we are in sympathy with vail innocent hilarities. We can enjoy a hearty song and we can be merry with the merriest: but thuse of us who have tolled In the service are ready to testify that all these joys are He is alive again! was lost and he is found! By such bold to himself, as is a shiftless or criminal j imagery does the Bible set forth the debtor, cannot be expected not to break faith in some way with the community. Identification lies along many lines, and forgeries of manner and speech are as patent as those of handwriting. At a reeent convention in Edinburgh a sscoker attributed to Gladstone the saying that a speech which reads well "must be a very bad speech." "No," replied Lord Rosebery. "Fox said that, and I can prove it. Fox said not very, but a word beginning with "d," and I am sure you will agree with me that this puts Mr. Gladstone's having said it out of the category of human posslbill* ties." — T h e six days'—bicy-cle racea whlch_ have become features of recent exhibitions are reprehensible in every sense merry-making when a soul comes horn* to God. You remember John Bunyan in hit great story tells how the pilgrim put his fingers to his ears, and ran, crying: "Life, life, eternal life!" A poor car driver .some time ago, after years having had to struggle to support his family, suddenly was informed that a large inheritance was his, and there was a joy amounting to bewilderment; but that Is a small thing compared with the experience of one when he has put in his hands the title deed to the joys, the raptures, the splendors of heaven, and he can truly say, "Its mansions are mine, its temples are mine, its songs are mine, its God is mine!" Qhf it ia no tamgthing to become a the teld among the wounded until, it { t a r a e compared with the satisfaction of was said there were at 'least 10,00(1 wounded men uniting their voicee as they came to the verse: - "There everlasting Spring abides And never-withering flowers; 'Tis but a narrow stream divides This .heavenly land from ours." At the opening of tlrar Exposition In New Orleans I saw a Mexican flutist, arid he played the solo, and then afterward the eight or ten bands'of music, accompanied by the great organ, came In; but the sound of that one flute as compared with ail the orchestras was greater than all the combined joy of the universe when compared with the resounding heart of Almighty God. For ten years a father went three times a day to the depot. His son went off in aggravating circumstnees, but the father said: "He will come back." The strain was too much and his mind parted, and three times a day the father went, ^n the early morning he watched the, train, its arrival, the stepping out of the pass%ngers, and then the departure of the train. At noon he was there again watching the advance of the train, watching the departure. At night he was there agalnv watching the coming, watching the going, for ten years. He was sure his son would come back. God haH been watching and waiting for some of seeing men enter the kingdom of God. The great eras of every ministry are the outpourings of the Holy Ghost, and I thank God I have seen sixteen ol them. Thank God, thank God! * *» *.. Look, look! There is Christ. Cuyp painted him for earthly galleries, and Correggio and Tintoretto and Benjamin West and Dore painted him for earthly galleries, but all those pictures are eclipsed by this masterpiece of heaven. Christ! Christ! There is Paul, the hero of the Sanhedrim, and of Agrippa's court room, and of Mars Hill, and of Nero's infamy, ahaking his chained fist iri the very'face of teeth-chattering royalty. Here is Joshua, the fighter of Bethoron and Gideon, the man that postponed sundown. And here is Vashti, the profligacy of the Persian court unable to remove her veil of modesty or rend it, or lift it. And along the corridors of this picture gallery I find other great heroes and heroines—David with his harp, and Miriam with the cymbals, and Zechariah with the scroll» and St. John with the seven vials, and the resurrection angel with the trumpet.

You know the Bible never nearly every case resulted in fatal in juries to the contestants. Joseph Jefferson, commenting recently on undue athletic training, said that some years ago he met Laurence Barrett on a street corner in Boston, and Barrett said he was waiting for a street car to take him to a gymnasium. "Why not walk?" asked Jefferson; "that is better exercise than you will get at the gymnasium, and you will save the trouble -.oi^gojng there." United States Consul-General Karel, at S t Petersburg, "has furnished the state department with full particulars of the conditions under which the plans for the Siberian railway were changed so a* to run hhe eastern portion otf Uve line through Chinese territory- He e a y e I t was foumd that the original plan would be hard 6t esaseotion, owing t o the great technical 41fflcuKlef encountered.

It is more apt to be compared to a banquet than anything else. It is compared in the Bible to water, bright, flashing water, to the morning, roseate, i nreworked, mountain transfigured morning. I wish I could today take all the Bible expressions about pardon, peace, and life, and comfort, and hope, and heaven, and twist them into one garland and put it on the brow of the humblest child of God in this assemblage, and cry: "Wear it, wear It now, wear it forever; sop of God, daughter of the Lord God Almighty." Oh, the Joy of the new convert. Oh, the gladness of the Christian service. You have seen sometimes a man in a religkfus assembly get up and give his expert -yearsr-thirty years, fnrty_yg_ar£t j^eii haps fifty years, waiting, waiting, watching, watching, and if now tho prodigal should come home, what a scene of gladness and festivity, and how the great Father's heart would rejoice at your coming home. You will come, some of you, will you not? You will, you will. I notice, also, that whim a prodigal comes home there is the Joy of the ministers of religion. Oh, it is a grand thing to preach this gospel. I know there has been a great deal said about the trials and the hardships of the Christian ministry. I wish somebody would write a good, rousing book about the joys of the Christian ministry. Since I entered the profession, I have seen more of the goodness of God than I will be able to celebrate in all eternity. I know some boast about their "equilibrium, and tl!ey_do not rlse~7nlcr enthusiasm, and they do not break down with emotion; but I confess to you plainly that when I see a man coming to God and giving up his sin I feel in body, mind and soul a transport. When I see a man bound hand and foot In evil habit emancipated, 1 rejoice over it as though it were my own emancipation. When in One communion service such throngs of young and old stood up and in the presence of heaven' and earth and hell attested their allegiance to Jesus Christ, I felt a joy something akin to that-whlch—the—apostle describe*. go up we will! : —• From this hilltop I catch a glimpse of those hilltops where all sorrow and sighing shall be done away? Oh, that God would make that world to ns a reality. Faith in that.world helped old Dr. Tyng when he stood by the casket of his dead son whose arm had been torn off in the threshing machine, death ensuing, and Dr. Tyng, with infinite composure, preached the funeral sermon of his own beloved son. Faith in tha,t world helped Martin Luther without one tear to put away in death his favorite child. Faith in that world helped the dying woman to see; on the sky the letter "W," and they asked her what she supposed that letter "W" on the sky meant. vOh," she said, "don't y^u know?

N the day before Christmas Mabel and I were married, and as I placed the ring on her finger I felt that my happiness was complete. That same Christmas eve _sj_e^:my mother-and I were in /€|reenw'ioh, where I hat! The Christmas bells rang out auguries of a happy future, and I set words to tk()|_gr—words which formed the sweetest Iselody that ever fell on a man's soul. Mabel looked inexpressibly fair and beautiful, and, in the light of our happkaean my old another-appeared to grow young again. Never was a man so blessed as I. "God bless this day," I said, as we three) sat together, I with an arm around each.' "God bless this day for ever and ever!" We snt in tho duak, taJklng of the past and the future; and during a lull my mother sung a few lines of "To, heave, ho!" my father's favorite song, and broke down In the middle/overcome by remembrance of the past A few m«nenU afterward Mabel, with a tender neatlln* toward me, sung, in a low, sweet whse, a song I had never heard, before. One vane especially pleased n e . and sfce sung it again at my desire, M I wished to fix the words tn my adjsd: "Ttongfc friends bo chiding, And waves dividing, Itt faith abiding, I'll still be true; "And I'll pray for thee. OB the stormy ooeaji, la 4mp devotion, That's what I'll de," A kmg, long alienee followed; and we awoke from the dream Into which we hr.r. \\\'-.\ '.\- •.-• ;!;<.• i_cain, almost in whispers, of the bright promise which life held out for us. "I shall have more than one t&listnan with me," said Mabel, gone." "More than one, my darling? How many, then?" "Three/ she replied. "Hope, faith and love." "Faith and love are the best of these," said I. "Faith in each other, lore for each other. Mabel, if I lost faith in you, I believe that love would go forever out of my life." She became grave at this. "Do* yov ifrMrfc.-v site *reuewtfy ashed, "that you could ever grow to doubt me?" m "Yvu zolglft, a**w4rtl*ir*k me/' I replied, "if I think the sun will not rise to-morrow. No, Mabel, it is impossible that I should ever doubt you; the mere suggestion would make me unhappy, did I not know you are all that is good and pure and constant" My answer did not appear to satisfy her. "Suppose," she continued, with a woman's persistence, "that circumstances should arise in your absence— remember the harder task of faith is yours-j—" "Why?" I inquired, interrupting her. "I should never doubt," she answered, with a tender smile. "Knowing you from the time 1 was a child, and you being always my best and | dearest friend, my love for you and faith in you have become a part of my lUe. So it comes'natural to me. When you first saw me you were a man " "Yes," I said, again interrupting her; "but a man who had never loved any Woman but my mother. Well, go on.' '^Suppose, then,*"she repeated, "that circumstances should arise in your absence that might cause people to speak of me through no fault of mine, as they did of me and that man"—I knew that she referred to Mr. Druce, and that, holding him in abhorrence she shrank from uttering his name—"would a suspicion of doubt of my love and faith ever enter your mind? That is what I want to know." "And when'you know it, will you rest satisfied," I asked, with a light heart and in a light tone, "and never think again of such an impossibility." "Yes, Amos." "Well, then, I will first show you that I can be as obstinate as yourself. Do you know of any such circumstance likely to arise?" She paused a moment berore she-?*^ plied: "No; I know of none." "Then take my answer, my dearest. Nothing could ever shake my faith in you—nothing could ever weaken my love for you. If arvy necessity really existed that these words should be spoken, I am glad that they are spoKen at Christmas. Henceforth this good season holds a more sacred place in my heart, because it has brought me the priceless blessing of your love; because, also, of the lesson it has taught me—the lesson of faith, to live forever undimmed in my soul!" She held me round the neck, and, kissing me, tearfully, whispered that she would never, never forg^t^ae words I had/spoken. _^And _so that happy Christmas flew ojie nuui was usslw^ur skipper—so that L. the command devolved upon sis. We were sfcaied up and taken Sm^fll Melbourne, and there I reported myself. My great anxiety now was to get home a^'soocTfts possible, but * temptation was twtowtfrh raV way wfcfcm I could not resist. I was offered the command of.% vessel belonging to the owners of The Blue Jacket. This vesse>,w»4 to trade, first to China,, and there take in cargo for London. To successfully accomplish this to the WUs-ac'tion of my owners would be as good as* the making of me. No mere partings from Mabel, then, thought I, as I joyfully—though wRh* natural rue at tb^^delay —acceptwhen you are , ^ ^ <#„ x w p o t e h 0 j ^ to jfsbel the double good news of my escape from ahrpwrick and my promotion. Tou will understand that during ail jJ>Js time I had no opportunity of receiving a line from her; such arc the exigencies of a sailor's life. I was kept in Melbourne longer than pleased me, and it was quite three months before I stepped on to my ship's deek with my clearing papers. The gold fever was raging so violently in those days, that it was no easy task to get a crew together for a humdrum country like Great Britain. However, we managed to muster A lot b* scarecrows who knew mrteNwieogh of the sea or a sailor's duties, and after an unreasonable long voyage—in consequence of my being compelled to be more than ordinarily careful because of the incompetency of my crew—we arrived safely at our destination and there took in cargo for dear old England. I looked upon it as the happiest of happy omens that I arrived home at Christmas-tide. I bad been absent exactly three years. With a joy stirring in my heart wheh I have not the power to express, I set out from the docks for the dear little cottage of shells in Brixton. It wee evening before I could get free, and the ^flight was dark—but not lonely. Flowers seemed to rise in the snow as I walked, seemed to grow in the air as I stopped onward. Cold? Not a bit of it. Everything was warm and beautiful and bright, as it should be at Christmas. All my anxieties and troubles were now at an end. How grateful I wsjj ibst, by God's mercy, I was spared, and enabled to spend another Christmas ashore with my darling wife and my dear old mother! P recalled the memory of the hast happy Christmas I had spent in their dear society, and of the lesson of love emd faith I had then learned. And there came upon me In fuller force a dim, sweet hope I had nursed and cherished through all my wanderings—a hope which I hardly dared to shape Into words—'that when I reached home I should see in Mabel's arms a child who would call me father. How I had dwelt upon that hope! How I had cherished it! What resolutions I had formed to bring up my child in a worthy way, and to make him proud of me, as I was of Beecroft ,Mariner, my father!

But hope was before me—hope that perhaps ou my next voyage I should be in a position to ciaim my wife, and take her with me in my ship as the captain's Lady. CHAPTER VIH. e>uly, man proposes and God dispose*. I anticipated that I should' * be absent for not kmger than twelve months, and it was three years before I stepped upon my native land again. Briefly, this is the reason why: We were bound for Otrina, and- while-we lay there unloading, the agents of the vessel accepted a profitable charter for Auetralls, The gold fields had Just been discovered in t w pert of the world, and the finance was not to be missed, I fretted at the delay, but duty was before me, and that stood first. We set sail for the Australian coast. Our voyage wsu a ilssssti mis mr When within two days' sail of our destination, our ship. Thfe Blue Jacket, was overtaken by a violeex storm, which so disabled her that <eV had to take to our boats. It happened strangely enough that another vessel, named The Blue Jacket, was caught in this storm, and went down with kit hands.

My heart sung within me, and either my cheeriness, or my brisk step, or the brightness of my face, or all of them together mayhap, caused me to receive many a pleasant look from the passersby— looks, be sure, which I returned with interest. Home! dear, sweet home! There were no lights in the Brixton lanes, but I could have found my way if I had been blind. Many a time on the wild seas, when the wind was howling round me, and not a star could- be seen in the dark skies, had I in my fancy threaded my way through these paths, and seen the cottage of Beecroft, Mariner, shining out of the gloom with my wife and mother waiting at the door to welcome me; and now, as I turned the lane in which our cottage was situated, a dull feeling of pain crept Into my heart because I did not hear the pattering of the feet nor the faces: of those I ao fondly loved. Only for a moment did this unreasonable feeling have play; I shook it off resolutely. How could they know, how could they tell, the hour and the mrnute I should appear among them?

State Legislature in Joint Beteloa Celebrate* the Sixtieth Anniversary of Michigan's Statehood—Policeman Shot by a Burglar at Port Horon. , ' i Michigan a State 60 Years. The state legislature met in the hall of the house of representatives at tensing to listen to speeches in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of Michigan's admission to the Union and the 50th anniversary of the location of the capital at Lansing. There were at least 3,500 people present. The program opened with Hon. Russell C. Ostrander, mayor Of Lansing, who addressed the assembly on "The Capitol City." Hon. P. Dean Warner, of Farmington, ex-speaker of the house in '67, exeenator and member of the constitutional convention of 07, gave many interesting reminiscences. President Angell of Michigan University spoke on the development of higher education in Michigan. It was the United States, he said, that endowed the University of Michigan, and that endowment of $500,t)00 was the only permanent endowment that the university ever had. The institution was run 30 years without a cent from the state. The state's annual .. outlay for the institution in the past 60 years, he said, was only about an average of $17,000. 1 Lieut 4iov. Dunstan spoke on the "Resources of the Upper Peninsula." Kx-Gov. Cyrus G, Luce ^was most heartily applauded when he rose to talk on the resources o£ the lower peninsula. The glory and future of the state depended upon the legislators, and it was their duty to lighten the burdens of its people. Atty.-Gen. Mayuard spoke on "Our State Capital." Prof. H. 11. Pattengill spoke on the "Primary Schools of Michigan,' saying that Michigan's primary pupils were three years ahead of those of other states. Capt E. P. Allen paid a glowing tribute to Michigan in the-war. serious Flood* la Michigan. The Kalamazoo river reached the highest uotch in years, Many houses in Kalamazoo Was surrounded, some being filled half way to the eaves. All movable material was carted to, higher ground or placed on house topi, . One street was badly damaged by the flood. Many houses are reached only by boats. Amaden & Weden's woolen mill at Corunna is a wreck, a large portion of the structure having one down the river. The firm moved all the valuables out just in time. The loss is 13,000. The Pigeon river went on the rampage, flooding highways, fields, orchards and flats about Caseville. There was three feet of water over Hayes' bridge.

Is Pingree Mayor of Detroit T The question whether Gov. Pingree has a right to be mayor of Detroit also is now in a fair way to come squarely before the supreme court for its determination. The court dismissed the proceeding brought by D. \\. H.

The court directs that the Detroit common council show cause if hy a mandamus should not Issue To" compel, it to call a special election for the purpose of electing a successor to MayorPingree.

Rome: It is officially announced that the.result of the pour parjera of the powers Is a definite agreement not to reply to the Greek uyte, but to issue orders to the foreign admirals to establish an immediate blockade of Cretan ports. This agreement is somewhat in the nature of a concession by Russia and France. Russia, during the middle of lust week, proposed, with France seconding the proposal, another joint note, to Greece, insisting on the withdrawal of the troops, instead of an immediate resort by the powers to force It is thought that the simplest way to carry out the threat made in the identical note will be the blockading of the Cretan ports and the landing of forces sufficient to Insure the maintenance of order, leaving future action as to the fate of Crete to later negotiations!

I crept thither stealthily, wishing tjo have a peep at them-hefora they saw me; but no light was there to guide me, and a kind of dismay overtook me when I found that the whole house was in darkness. I soon pulled myselm together. "You clumsy, thick-headed lubber," murmured I," "not to know that It's too late for them to be up. They are abed, dreaming of you, and little enough you deserve it!" It was, Indeed, I reckoned, quite ten o'clock by this time, and I know that my mother was a n early body and was seldom out of bed at that hour of the night. So, putting my hand to my mouth, I cried lustily, "Yp, heave, ho!" I listened and waited, but it was clear they had not heard me. "Yo, heave, ho!'* I cried again, louder than before, and again waited and listened, and again heard no sound in response. "Too fast asleep," thought I, and I tried the street door. To my surprise, It yielded to my hand. I entered the room, and knew, though all was dark around me, that everything was as I had left it three years before. I could just distinguish the indistinct outlines Of the old familiar shapes. I put my bundle on the floor under the little round table in the center of the room, and, feeling my way to the stairs, I crep up them to. the bedroom above. I pained at the door. "Mother*** I called; and then, "Mabel!" N o answer coming, I went softly Into the room and passed my hand over the bed. It was empty. "Well," said I, after a little while, "they are out Junketing, those two, not expecting me home at sach an hour. Mayhap they are spending the evening with a neighbor." I considered whether I should go out in search of them, or whether I should rest at home, and astonish them- upon their return, But if I went, I should not knov/ where to look for them, and it -would he sheer folloy to wander 'aboax wlthoat knowing where one was going to. Besides, they might return in my absence. So, without more ado, I descended the stairs to the little parlor below, and there sat down in a chair, determining t owait till my mother and Mabel came h o m e / Until T~h*a quite made up my mlhd,-I-41d not know ftow tired I was.

While tnis thought was disturbing me I listened, for the familiar voices. I heard none, and hut one person entered the room-nay mother, whose step J recognised. Where was Mabel, then? Why, lingering behind, saying good-night to a neighbor, perhaps, or shutting the garden gate! In my excitement I nose, and stood m an attitude of expectation. I heard a heavy •o as hot "to alarm her?

Where is my wife— where is Mabel? Do you not know me? I am Amos, your eon." The name brought a glimmer of light to her mind. "Amos!" she moanel. "No, no! It is the dead that is-speaking to me, I have no son; he was killed, as his father waB, by t h e cruel sea. Lord, have pity on me! Lord*, have pity on me!" Killed as my fatper was, by the cruel sea! What had occurred, then, during my absence? Could it be possible that the news of our rescue in the boats had failed to reach home? No, It was impossible. There were my letters to MabeU relating all the circumstances ofour^peril and our escape. Fearing for /my old mother's reason, I searched about for matches, that she might see me bodily, and s o assure herself. But I could not find them, and what passed between us took place In the dark, neither seeing the other's face. I knelt again by her side. "You foolish old soul!" I said, in a tender and coaxing tone, "do you know what you are saying? Nay, III not touch you if my touch .hurts you? Steady ydu-rself, mother; I am neither dead nor drowned, or how could I .be here talking to you?" She could not have understood me. "My Amos!" she sobbed. "My boy. that I loved and worshiped! The best, the bravest sailor on all the queen's seas! My old eyes will never agfvln be blessed with a sight of him—never again, never again!" I had strong need to apply myself to the advice I gave to her. It was as much as I could do to keep steady, so as to get the heart of this mystery. Although I was trribly shaken, I proved myself equal to the occasion, and by dint of tenderness and a good deal of coaxing, I managed at length to cohjrince my mother that I was alive. Then, to my amezemeht^partr story was told and made clear to me. The Blue Jacket that went down with all hands when within t w o . days' sail of the Australian coast, was believed by my mother to have been the Slue Jacket in which I served. Te arrive at this understanding occupied me fully an hour, and by that time my mother was sitting on my knee, soothed and pacified, and filled with a feeling of awe and gratitude at m y escape. I could now turn my attention to those matters nearest my heart The whole mystery w a s not yet cleared. Being supposed t e he dead was a sufficient reason for my wife o o t being at home to welcome oav, but < had written to her, twice from China and twice from Melbourne. What had beeome of those letters? Surely, if she had received them—and why should she not? they were addressed to her plainly at her mother's house—she would net have kept tne goon tiarage of my safety and . promotion from my own mother. The first thing I had t o do, plainly, was to question my mother upon this point. "N wo that I have convinced you, mother," Iseid, 'that I am not lying am no ghost, you must satisfy me upon some point that are dark to me. Mabel— why, what's the matter with you,. dame, that you shrink from me? Are if you will tell me where I can find the matches. We oan talk hotter in the light."4 flung floae to me sgain, with, childsomething of terror expressed ia her maaner—which I set down to her not having entirely recovered from her • n*nrmured that e h e did not a light; that the darkness salted thai sitting there with la the house Amen," responded I, kissing her. "But all is well, thanks be. There shall be no more, parting between me and my dear wife. She shall sail with me, if she wil'., wherever I go, and you shall keep the house warm for us to return to. Yes, four letters I wrote to Mabel. The first from China, telling her of our going to Australia; two from Australia, telling her of my escape and promotion; and one from China again, just before we sailed for home. Do you mean to tell me that Mabel did not read those, letters to you?" "I never knew you had written any, Amos." "Could she not have received them?" I asked, dismayed and wondering. "I addressed themkto her, and posted them with my own hand to her mother's house. And for her not to have read them to you! Mother!" I cried, Impelled sudden fear, "has there been foul play somewhere?" Her tears and moans were my only answer. « "Nay, nay," said I, with a cold c h t l at my heart, "if I can't learn from you, I must go elsewhere.. I will see Mabel at once. There must be an end to this myfltery^ I rose to go, but my mother clung t* me with convulsive sobs, and strove with feeble bands to restrain me. But they were strong enough; they clutched my very heart strings. A deadly faintness stole upon me, and would hare overpowered me, but that I wrestled desperately with it and overcame it. "In the name of God!" I cried, when I had recovered my speech, "do not torture me any longer with your silence! Tell m« what is in your mind." The agony of my tone compelled her to obedience. "Amos, my son," she said, rn a weak, wandering voice, "it is late; it must be one o'clock. And see, Amos, What a wild night it is." v a t e s f e e strongest natures. A woman* personal at* tractiveueae is the weapon with which she conquers her world. Almost every woman believes that she possesses at least some one attractive feature and strives to make the most of that. But mere regularity of feature is not the moat attractive form of beauty. Mankind is more influenced by the bright glowing vitality of perfect health. A classic cast of countenance will not make a woman attractive and captivating, if- ahs is-pale, thin, weak and nervous, or has a pimply complexion or unwholesome breath. These complaints are due to imperfect nutrition. The digestive and blood-making organs fail to extract tbe needed nourishment from the food, and tbe liver is too singgish to cleanse the blood of bilious impurities. The entire constitution becomes weak and poisoned. The only perfect antidote for this state of things is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Oh eovery. It gives power to the digestive *•<- nutritive organs to make an abundance e: pure, rich, highly vitalized blood, whkU permeates the whole system with the sweetness of purity; the beauty of womanly vigor and animation. It creates solid, healthy flesh and natural color; clears the complexion; dispels wrinkles; rounds out the form and imbues the whole physiqne with the irresistible ^tmxat magnetism of perfect health.

Somebody is always making a bet on some queer proposition or other and the decision is Mt in many cases to some of the papers. No sooner is the bet made than the men who have put up the money or promised to do so, hie themselves to a telephone and ring up "the editor" of the paper to which the decision has been left. Some of the propositions advanced are enough to mak6 a mule laugh, and some are sent T5veT-trxe-telepbon^jxLst_to_Wiirry the man who answers the ring and possibly to catch the man i • • ' . % *° with some trick. The other day, for instance, some fresh boy rang up a newspaper to ask for the decision on this proposition: "Is it legal for a man to marry bis widow's sister?" The young man who answered the 'phone refused to "bite" and told the inquirer that his question would be answered through the columns of the paper if he would write it out and forward £t with hie name nnd address That is? c..v :, * £ the rule in most offices and this particular question never came of course. Another anxious inquirer, pre* sumably a farmer, wanted a cure for potato bugs. The agricultural editor, to whom the question was referred replied that he could not tell until he knew what ailed the bugs. The .questioner was probably unable to describe their complaint, and the consultation was not renewed. But the other night there came one that was too good to lose, so the young man who received it answered it on his own account. * "We've made a bet," said the fellow who rang up the office, "and we want you to decide it." *gbkj>aper don't decide 4>ets^ was the answer. "Never mind the b8t, then. Just decide the question will you? "Well, wiajat is your question?" "It's this** came the answer.

The prinoi^al rain gambling den is on Cotton stree:, Burra bazaar. No one who has not visited the place can havo any conception of the vast crowds wjak'h at every hour of the day and ir Into the night pass in and out.

Greeks, and women, too. All swarm .into the email courtyard whereythls strange form of gambling Is carried on through* a narrow entrance barely three feet wide. The courtyard is about 200 feet square. The far-famed tank with a spout falling into the courtyard is the one spot where all eyes are fixed. The tank stands at the edge of a second-floor roof. It Is about six feet broad by four feet wide and nine inches deep, with the spout opening inward, some three or four Inches from the bottom. From this It will be seen that It requires a pretty heavy downpour dor at least ten minutes to cause the spout to flow, Intermittent drizzles, whlifch partly fill this tank, do not count, ai the shower to fill it must pour down uninterruptedly aria then the bets are won or lost. Chances are taken either for or against the spout running. A gray* haired, wizened old man is the owner of the den and there is another similar place across the road, only smaller. On the roof, oyer the fifth floor, there is a small, square watch tower, in which are stationed five or six men, whose duty is to scan the horizon closely and report on the formation of rain clouds. On these reports the odds rise or fall. A bet made . and won one, day is always paid the following morning. Everything seems to be "on the square" and, indeed, there ft little chance for cheating.1 The odde range as high as 1 to 75 on some days, even in the rainy season.

B a l z a c a n d RothechilcL It is a well-known fact that the late Baron James Rothschild was on excellent terms with Balzac, the famous French novelist, who dedicated to him several of his books. One day when he was about to proceed to Germany and being, as was often the case, in rather straitened circumstances, Balsac, applied to the baron, who, with his habitual generosity, handed him the sum of 3,000 franoa, and at the same trme a letter of introduction, addressed to-his nephew in Vienna, The letter was unsealed, as is usual in such cases. Belzac read it, thought its bone rather cool, trivial and altogether Inadequate. He scorned to deliver It, and returned to Paris with the autograph in hie pocket. On hie arrival he waited upon the great hanker. "Well," said the baron, "did you see my nephew?" Balzac coldly confessed that he had kept the letter. / "I am sorry for your sake," said toe baron; "have you it by you?" "Why certainly; here it is."

He has been experimenting on the effect of different colored lights on the growth of plants. Hie most interesting experiment was with a number of plants on the Mimosa Sensitive. Ha raised them from seeds, and when one inch high set them In four pots, a pair In each pot One pair he kept exposed to ordinary white light, the others he covered with colored glass bells, one with blue, one with green and one with red. At the end of two months the plants under the blue light were sliil only one inch high; those under the green had grown to Ave inches, ant thoae under the red had attained to sixteen lnehea of height; the plant* ordinary light had grown to a height of four Inches From this ft appears that the blue light retanla growth, thai green la rather avroreble, and that red light .force* the growth moan beyond the normal.

With the right kind of a mayor the Gamaliel Bradford system would go far toward solving the problem of city government The problem of effective dealing with mischievous students seems to have been BOlved by the mayor of a western college town. When a body of unruly sophomores. refused* to disperse at the eommatul ot the police, the mayor ordered out two fire engine companies, arjd'well-directed streams of water proved Immediately and amusingly Effective in subduing the d«4ont youngsters. Prince Hitfcoff, the Russian, minister of ways and communications, in an interview at Niagara Falls, N.< Y„ said that the .present policy of the Russian goyswament in regard to the intension condition iu which we find the revenues of the government. It is conceded that its current expenditures are greater than Its receipts aud that such a condition has existed for more than three years. With unlimited means at our command we are present!ug the remarkable spectacle of Increasing our public, debt by borrowing money to meet the ordlpary outlays incident upon even an economical and prudent administration ot the government. An examination of the subject discloses this fact in every detail and leads inevitably to the conclusion that the condition of the revenue which allows it is unjustifiable and should be corrected. We find by the report of the secretary of the treasury that the revenues for the fiscal.year endlug June 30,1802, from all sources, were $425,808,260.22, and the expenditures for all purposes were $415,033,800.50, leaving an excess of receipts over expenditures of $9,914,- 453.06. During that fiscal year $40,- 570,467.98 were paid upon the public debt, which has been reduced since March 1, 1889, $259,070,890, and the annual interest charges red-need $11,- 084,570.60. The receipts of the government from all sources during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1893, amounted to $401,716,501.94, and its expenditures to $459,374,887.65, showiug an excess of receipts over expenditures of $2,341,. 674.29. Since that time the receipts of no fiscal year, and with but few exceptions of no month of any fiscal year have exceeded the expenditures. The receipts of the government, from all sources, during the fiscal year ending Jun6 30, 1894, were $372,802,408.29, and its expenditures $442,005,750.87* leaving a deficit, the first since the resumption of specie payments, of $69,803,- 260.58. Notwithstanding there was a decrease of $10,769,127.78 in the ordinary expenses of the government, as compared with the previous fiscal year, its income was still not sufficient to provide for its daily necessities, and the gold reserve in the treasury for the redemption of greenbacks was drawn upon to meet them. But this did not suffice, and the government then resorted to loans to replenish the reserve. In February, 1894, $50,000,000 in bonds were issued, and in November following a second issue of $50,000,000 was deemed necessary. The sum $117,171,795 was realised by the sale of these bonds; but the reserve was steadily decreased until, on February exceeding 24 by 30 Ijftheae, increased from 8 to 12 cents. There is no increase in the larger aiaes over the Mc- KInley rates. - .. .?& . -*T J^L* Silver plate ^ W l i ' ^ p i a i i t , plates, not e x c o j m g , & b * 24~juche8 square, h a v e ^ > e » t i y t # i e i to Kceuts per square' foot; 'mm'.that A M uot exceeding 24 by 80 lichen, to 1¾ cents; above that, and not exceeding 94 by GO inches, decreased to 23 cents; all above thai reduced to Ml pent*. ..„• Iron 0»$£:* " Iron ore, including tfjaganlferou* iron, ore, also the d m i or residuum from burnt pyrites, 40c-ton.

In raising revenue, duties shofrttt be so levied upon foreign products as to preserve the home market, so far> as possible, to our own producers; to revive and increase manufactories; to relieve and encourage agriculture; to increase our domestic aud,foreign.commerce; to aid and develop minims aud building; and to render to labor In every field of useful occupation the liberal wages and adequate rewards to which skill and Industry are justly entitled. The necessity of the passage of a tariff law which Bhall provide ample revenue need be no further urged. The imperative demand of the hour is the prompt enactment of such a measure, and to ihls object I earnestly recommend that Before other busluess Is transacted, let us first provide sufficient revenue to faithfully administer the government without the contracting of further debt, or the continued disturbance of our finances.

A further loan of $100,000,000 was negotiated by the government in February, 1890, the sale netting $111,166,246, and swelling the aggregate of bonds issued within three years to $202,315,400. For. the fiscal year ending June 30, 1896, the revenues of the government frdni all sources anionnted to $409,475,408.78. while its expenditures were $434,078,654.48, or an excess of expenditures over receipts of $25,203,245.70.

The average rates are little, if any, below those of the McKInley bill, and in some of the schedules they are higher. It is the purpose of the committee to devise a provision that will enable reciprocity treaties to be made, not only to secure the larger importation of American manufactures into the South and Central American countries, but also to open the markets of European couutries, particularly Germany and France, to the freer use of American meats and agricultural products generally.

The work ol p*e extraordinary aea* sioo of the LVth congreaa waa opened in the-.Sonata by the reading of the President's proclamation convening tbe session. The galleries were crowded, but nothing of interest transpired beyond tire swearing in of a number of senators—^amon? them W. A. Harris, Populist, of Kansas, aa successor, t o Mr. Peffer—and the reading of t h e rresident's message. The message was given undivided attention, b u t caused no demonstration. In t h e House the interest centered in the election of the speaker aud the reading of the President's message. Of the 357 members of the House 337 responded to the roll call, and of these 148 were new members. _Politlcally classified t£ey are SOfl Republicans, 12!T~I>BUM> crats and 29 fusion sllverites and Populists, As candidates for speaker the Republicans presented Hon. T. B. Heed, of Maine; the Democrats Jos, \V. Bailey, of Texas; the Populists John C. Bell, of Colorado, and the silverites V. G. Newlands, of Nevada. The vote resulted Reed, 199; Bailey. 114; Dell, 21, and Newlaud 1. Mr. Reed then made a little speech thanking his colleagues for the honor, and then Mr, Harmer, of Pennsylvania, as the oldest member of the House in point of service, administered the oath of office. The otner* offices were filled as follows: Clerk, Alexander McDowell, of Pennsylvania; sergeant-at-arms, Ben V. Russell, of Missouri; doorkeeper, William J. Glenn, of New York; postmaster, Joseph C, McElroy, of Ohio; tally clerk, Frank H. Wakefield, of Michigan, and chaplain, Henry M. Couden, of Michigan. The President's message was applauded vigorously, as was Mr. Dingley when he introduced the new tariff bill. The rules of the last House were adopted temporarily, the speaker appointed the committees on rules, ways and means, and mileage and the House adjourned. , SENATE—Second day—A large list of nominations Were received from President McKinley, th.e principal ones being John Hajr, of the District of Columbia, to be ambassador to Great Britain; Horace Porter, of New York, t o be ambassador to France; Henry White, of Rhode Island, to be secretary of the embassy of the United States to Great Britain. Just 438 bills were introduced, which include billa^directing the foreclosure of the government lien on the Union Pacific railway; to prevent professional lobbying; for a cable between the United States, Hawaii and Japan; U> amend the immigration laws; providing for the increase of all pensions; bankruptcy bills. Mr. Morgan reintroduced the Nicaragua canal bill Which was before the last congress and also a jomt resolution to abrogate the Clayton - Buhver treaty. Numerous bills relating to the Pacific railroads were presented, including one to createarboard of trustees /or the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroad companies. . HOUSE—No session. SKNATK—Third day—The first report of the session was presented by Mr. (rear, of Iowa, from the committee on Pacific railroads and was favorable t o the bill for an adjustment of the Pacific railroad debts by a commission consisting of the .secretary of the treasury, secretary of the interior and the attorney-general. A number of minor bills were introduced, and Senator Stewart, of Nevada, whose home is at Carson City, created some amusement by offering a bill for the relief of one CorSett. It proved to be a private pension bill for an old soldier in Mr. Stewart's constituency.

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.

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 knew if X did so that, she would break down, and she bad not yet come to that part of Che' story which I burned, yet dreaded, to hear. Life and death hung upon her words* "But where was Mabel all this time?" I said, coldly. "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!

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.

Blood for blood. Substitution! 0» perhaps^ the mother lingers lonr enough to see a son get on the wronq road, and his former kindness becomes rough reply when she expresses anxiety about him. 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.

Tfcejr suspected, they said, that I had jailors for my relations, for I talked a great deal about the sea; but that was all they could discover. No one came to see me all the time I wa#ln the hospital, and when I was strong enough they let me go home. When I got back to the cottage I found a neighbor living in it, who thought that I was dead, as I believed you to be before to-night, my -dear son. The neighbors had heard nothing of the accident, and they all believed me to be dead; and they came about me, now that I was risen from the grave, as it might be, and those who were hardest upon me before made it -up to me in kindness. Then I heard that I had lost my son—that the ship he was In had foundered, and that.not a soul in her had been saved. I heard more, my son—shall I tell It?" "Tall I V I said, steeling my voice. . "Don't blame me, Amos, and t e a r it like a brave man, for my sake, dear. I askod after Mabel, aad the first thing I heard was .hat she had a baby. Go and bring her,' I said to the neighbors who were about me—'go and bring her aad my eon's child to me. Tell her I am them both.' They looked at one another, and gradually the story came o u t Shortly after the news of the loss of the Blue Jacket with all hands reached the neighborhood, Mabel and her mother went away." "Where to? Where is my wife and child?" "They left England altogether, for Australia; and since then nothing haa been heard of them." Consternation at this stardlng news atrwck « s e dumb for a time* and my mother was too frigfrtened to nreak the silence. "This night, which in my eager anticipation was to hare been filled wkh Joy had brought desolation and despair to my heart "Have yon anything more to say?" J asked faintly, when I could muster strength to speak. I had to repeat the question before my mother replied, and then the words feu like drop* of poison from her llpa. , "Amoe, Mabel did not go alone." "You have already told me ee.

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.

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.

S. A. Forbes. State Entomologist. Cultivating I4m» Beans. Lima beans are almost without exception a favorite dish. 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.

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.

We traveled all day for weeks over gibbers; we slept at night upon gibbers; we even found small portions of gibbers in our food." 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.

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.

One-third of Greenville, Miss., is a dewrt of water, a scene of desolation impossible to describe. The water is ft* nearly 800 houses and is kept out of the stores in the heart of the town oa4y by the # protection so timely thrown, op by the citizens to. stop Its dastraotlve progress. Mail goes and •ernes in sklah, doctors visit their patisnte Ineklffa, social visHe are made hi seUEs, and skills ore property equal eflfnost In vslue to what the mule was * few days age. 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. The water is as high aa in 1890, but will soon and pass that mark. Greenville Itself is a ctty of refugees of from 15,- • H he Wjm swale.

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.

Plaintive howlings of dogs, cackling of poultry and squealing of pigs keep the woods alive, and graphic scenes and incidents crowd upon the sight at every turn.

The steamer went up the St. FrancU River as far as Cut Off. and then worked her way down stream, rescuing people from perilous positions. The suffering along the St. Francis River is appalling.

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.

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.

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.

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. This much I know, and this much I saw, but I was mercifully spared from the eonseioua knowledge of a great deal of the agony and terror of that awful night The ntixxen-topgeilant mast coming* down with tremendous force, I was struck, prune to the deck by it, and for a time I partially lost my •imr^' J* i * ?M»- A prowdsent building owner, wHb yeAreofezperWnet* gnW the" tottewfes* toternetfen* to W» ArehitoW "I b a V h a d toy esparto*** wit* fellas* mm* end other yooda olftHnoif' to be toeVae good aa glftbaetine, * went you to specify the durable aiebastino on all my walla; do not put on any other manufacturera' dope, if they furnUh it for nothing.

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. Forrest also a solo by Miss Lucy Uann. Key. E. B. Allen, who was expected to be present was unable to do so, and his place was ably filled by Rev. W. M.

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. Four thousand peek horses are employed and enormous msosco of war stores, ponotoooa, cannon, tents, medicines, ammunition and, in fact, everything needed tor a large army has been gathered at ISlnsonna.

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. The Senate has killed the joint resolution which provided that a constitutional amendmend be submitted to a vote of the people, whereby the regents of the IT. of M. would be subjected to the authority of the legislature. The House committee on private corporations is having a time with the independent and the Bell telephone companies. The representatives of independent companies of various cities areurging the passage of a bill to prevent the Bell»eompany from making ruinous rates for the purpose of driving out competitors. 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»^ .

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.

That is,making a man out pretty low but how about the prize-fighters themselves?

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.

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?

Widow Weed, who wishes to be consul, la rich. While we have so many worthy widowers who are not rich, it would scarcely be good policy for Mr. McKInley to be sending our rich widows out" of the country, to be won, perhaps, by foreigners. A favorite place for oscillatory exploits with the Topeka. belles and beaux is on top of the dome of the State House. 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). A new tariff, to go into effect January 1, has now beam published, mahtag the duty IS fiorla* in gold ($7.21).

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." H I had not already received appointment as Minister Plenipotentiary from the High Court of Heaven—-as every minister of the Gospel has—and I had at my back a fatally for whom I wished to achieve a livelihood, there is no employer whose service I would sooner seek than alty. fit—PeterstWrf—to- -atate-or United States government gating committee with the one hope of finding something wrong. 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. I read that chapter in about . charity which '%opeth til things" and "thlnketh as •rtt" Tut Committee of Malodors is but I teat far alt work who have, not in spirit of eueweutiouslity, but 1* spirit of earnest iuiportnusty, prayed for those la bssjbjjsittinu I cannot haip It. but I do ttfcs a S t Bernard batter than a bloodhound, and I would rather be u huasaBiec-utod asuoufl. bosjejanclc- Those governments are the promptest In their payments, paying just aa well in hard times as In good times, and during summer vacation as during winter work. 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. The Greek resistance was -magnificent and spirited.

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.

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. CHAPTER XVIX HE nasae coming to my ears brought with it a dim ressembraaoe. Fairley! Where had I heard that name, and.

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.

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.

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.

" 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.

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.

Hay nee, an aged and highly respected lady, died at her home, Pinckney, April 28 1897, aged 92 years 6 months and 4 days. Miss Maria Bump was born in Lime, New London county, Conn., Oct. 24, 1804. She waa mariied to Christopher Haynes in 1827 and in 1829 they moved to N. 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. Loving hands ministered to her wants, and her death, like her life was i>eacefti^i»4i»*viHige^i i^^<u»j£aniiay tiitis{hd»T „ , xi • • of April, In tho jew OM thousand eight banana She leaves to mourn their loss, a son.

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.

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.

"They're all in the same boat, sktaper," said he. "You're ths only scholar among us." Pearl, naturally weak and low after her long peril in the sea, was lying; on a bed of leaves and dry moss A happy thought occurred to "You esa rend. Peart?** I She, nodded. "Yes."

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!"

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.

He spolte of the conduct of England in connection with the Grueco-Turkish war and implored the Senate to protect the United States against the proposed alliance, The speech mode a visible impression and the opinion was general that the treaty should be amended so as to remedy the inconsistencies, b u t l h i s required unanimous consent and Senator Carter objected. 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.

Robi was encamped near Bayamo when his scout* brought news of the withdrawal of the regular Spanish troops from that city and the abandonment of the place to the local volunteers. 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 Senate adopted resolutions of sympathy and condolence for Senator H. B. Coleman, of Kalamazoo, in the loss of his little son, and then adjourned. 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.

The Williams election bill, providing that persous who cannot eead (he English language may select any elector to aid them in casting their vote, instead of being guided by election inspectors, a* at- present, was killed iu the House committee of the whole, Another bill which was "laid out" in the House was the one appropriating ¢11,000 for farmers' institutes, and the farmer members themselves did the killing. 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.

The House killed the Clute local option bill for the reorganization of township road districts, and providing rates of taxation and methods of collection for township high way purposes. 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.

T h e H/onie passed the uniform text book bill; also a bill providing for an appeal and a jury trial in the circuit court from the', decision of the probate judge.

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.

"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. Then I shall see say own dear mother again, and I shall tell her how good you have heen to me—though she knows; and dear little Bob. too; and we shall all talk of that dreadful dark night when I wae thrown into the sse but It won't be dark «P 9»**. among the When mother was alive J used I heard .the aagejs smgia*, and tf I woke up ,1 was nuej to see bed and sing-^ hrJns4 the snsjsjs Jsjfcp say head.

Never mind, I will take care of you. But I mustn't forget something else. You put all the men in my charge"—she spoke now with a very business-like air—"and there's the one I've not seen, and who never answers. He is missing, the others say." "Who is that one, my little daughter?'- 1 "Ah, how nice it is to hear you epeak like that! And I like your voice, too. But you can read, and the others cant. Have you read 'Cinderella?^' "Yes, little one." "Would you like to read it again?" "I should—old as I am." I noticed then that she had round her neck the little oil-skin bag which I had removed from her wbeu I un- 1 ashed her from the spar, and I remembered that Tom Wren bad called out that it contained books. "I've got it here," she said, touching the bag lightly. "And another book, too. Mother tied them round my neck that dark night—my spellingbook, you know. Isn't •Cinderella* beautiful? It's all true, every bit of it. Perhaps we 1 shall find a prince here one day. Oh, dear! If we could got a pumpkin and turn it into a ship! I shall look about the forest for a good fairy.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

Mr. Bailey, Democrat' of Texas, denounced the attacks and Mr. Diugley, Republican, of Maine, tried to c u t the Kansas man off In his fiery speech, b u t the latter continued and Mr. Reed finally challenged Mr. Simpson to propose a resolution instructing the speaker to appoint the committees.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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. Suicide a n d Civilization, We find that suicides figure most in the' best countries, where culture and learniag exist. Where there la the highest civilization there is the most suicide. Is civilization, then, a curse, and is it false that knowledge is powe r ? N O ! it <* Rimply this, ffr»| yjtp the higher power there is more danger of a misuse of it. 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. It Is that the shame and remorse of a cultured mind will not tolerate what Ignorance and depravity would bear. Suicide, along with insanity, advanced with the advance of and education.

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.

They seem to be under the impression that everybody has sufficient means to do this, an error that many rich men make. You can't buy ivory in Africa on wind.

While, then, we watch the ravens feeding Elijah, let the swift dove of God's spirit sweep down the sky with divine food, and on outspread wing pause at the lip of every soul hungering for comfort Oa the banks of what rivers have been the great battles of the world? While you are looking over the map of the world to answer that, t will tell you that the great conflict to-day Is on the Potomac, on the Hudson, on the Mississippi, on the Thames, on the Savannah, on the Rhine, on the Nile, on the Ganges, on the Hoang-Ho. 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.

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. But theres no suoh thing as jmstfee in this/ ^urld, nor in the next, if there i a o n e .

I neither ste nor slept. The stars came emt again, a n * •bed their pitying light upon me, But why prolong t h e deeeristkia of thos* dread hours? 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. CHAPTER XXIJL BELUsVB that weeks must hare passed before I associated the speaker with the words; but the time same when I was fuHy aware that I was not dsad, as I had sometimes imagined myself to be.
