FREKFORT, Pa., Aujy, 17.—An excursiontrain on the Butler branch of the West Pennrailroad, loaded with veterans returningfrom the reunion of the One Hundred andSecond Regiment at Butler, was wreckedlast evening at Sarvera, seven miles east ofthis city, two passengers being instantlykilled; three or four others perhaps fatallyand twenty-live more or less seriously in-jured. The wreck was caused by the railsspreading on the end of a small bridge thatspans Buff alo creek. The timbers on whichthe rails were laid were so rotten that thespikes had been forced out from the side bytho weight of the train passing over them.The train consisted of a smoker, day coachand combination coach. The engine stoodabout 100 yards from the wreck, uninjuredand on the track. The smoker was smashedinto splinters and fell fifteen feet down anembankment. The front truck of the coachwas also down over the embankment, thebind truck remaining on the track. Tbecombination car also remained on the track.Of the twenty passenger** in the smoker onewas killed and nineteen injured, it being amiracle that all were not killed.

The most seriously injured are: CaptainLowry, of Allegheny, hand hurt badly andinjured internally".

Conductor J. .8. Gray, of Baler,, hurt inhead and internally; will probably die.

Mrs. F. Grofl> of Pittsburgh, injured in-ternally.

Mrs. Mantzer, of Butler, seriously hart.Charles Seitz, of Fahrview, Pa., cut in

head and breastJackson McConnatha, of Tarentum. large

hole in leg, badly bruised and scratched.Charles Kurns, brakeman, #f Butler,

bruises and severe nervous prostration; willprobably die.

Mrs. Dennis Duff, of Lawrenceville, Seri-ously injured; may not recover.

General Thomas A. Rowley, of Pitts-burgh, injured internally,

John Duff, a boy of ten years, severelybruised and internal injuries.

On recev ing intelligence of the accidenthere, superintendent Kirklahd and fourdoctors at once left for the scene. On ar-riving at tho wreck the sight was trulyheartrending. On either sideof the trackfor a distance of nearly a quarter of a mileinjured veterans were lying on cushionsand in some instances on the hard ground.Women and children, wounded and bespat-tered with blood, sat and lay around onpieces of wreckage. Doctors and passen-gers at oaee sot to work to care for the injured. Broken limbs were set and headsand arms bandaged. Two were found dead,being killed outright, a Mr. Powell, of Pitts-burgh, and a si* year-old girl named Far-rell, of Butler. Twenty-eip:ht others werewountled, three of which will probably die.The twenty-five others were more or lessseriously injured, but not fatally.

The railroad officials arc severely cen-sured by all the passengers for allowingsuch negligence. There being no telegraphoffice nearer than this point, several miieaaway, it was fully two hours before thealarm could be given and doctors procured,the wounded meantime lying where theycrawled out of the wreck, or had been laidby fellow passengers. Conductor Gray, ofButler; brakeman Karns and a Mrs. Duff,of Lawrenceville, will probably die.

This is the first serious railroad accideo*that ever occurred in Butler County, an}much solicitude is expressed in Butler overthe disaster.

SULLtVAN'S SENTENCE.

One Tear's Imprisonment In the ConntyJail of Miirfoa Cottot/, MiM.—B* Ap~jttsX* to » Blxh«r Court—R«<ere* Fits-Patrick In Fined «30«.PURVIS, Miss., Aug. 19.-Court opened

about nine o'clock Saturday morning.Judge Terrell was on hand long before thathour and Sullivan was also in court beforehis attorney arrive*. The crowd in thecourt room was small, but it grew larger ina few minutes, for hardly was the judgeseated when tfre grand Jury liled in. Theypresented one indictment and withdrew.The District Attorney called the case ofJohn Fitzpatrick. He read the indictmentand asked Fitepatrick whether he wasguilty or not Mn Fitzpatrick answered"guilty" and the District Attorney ad-dressed the court, reviewing Fitzpatrick'*connection with the fight and the circum-stances under- which he became referee.Captain Fitzpatrick also made a statementin his own behalf and concluded by askingthe court to be as lenient as possible. Thecourt reserved Its decision.

The Sullivan matter was then taken upand Mr. Green read the motion in arrest ofjudgment, which the court overruled. Mr.Green then submitted a motion for a newtrial and asked for an immediate decisionwithout argument from counsel. Thegrounds of the motion were alleged errorsof the court prejudicial to the prisoner.Judge Terrell overruled the motion.

Judge Calhoun then asked that, by anagreement with the District Attorney, sixtydays be allowed in which to file tae bills ofexception. General Ford then read a peti-tion for clemency which was signed by thegrand jury and petit jurors and best citizensof the vicinity.

Mr. Calhoun appealed for clemency andthere was a pause. The defense was wait-ing for the court, and the court waited tohear if anything more was to be said.There was a stir in the audience when the.silence was broken by Sullivan himself.The champion stood up before the bar andsaid:

'*Your honor: I desire to make a few re-marks. I can only ask for your clemency"in this matter. No doubt I have done some-thing wrong, but, as my couusei told you, Iwas ignorant of the law. I am not as ora-torical as the distinguished District Attor-ney on my right, or my counsel who haveaddressed you, and therefore I beg to re-mark that I am your humble servant, JohnL. Sullivan."

Judge Terrell aske4 for the petition pre-sented by General Ford. Alter a few min-utes, inspection he folded the paper, shadedhis eyes with his hand and his browwrinkled as he meditated. Every eye wasfixed on him and Sullivan leaned forwardanxiously. Finally the judge said: "Standup, Sullivan."

Sullivan stood up quickly, threw put hi*chest and looked the court full iu the face.Judge.Terrell said: "The sentence of thecourt is that as punishment for the offensefor which you stand convicted, you shallsuffer imprisonment for twelve months inthe county jail."" Sullivan gloomily'took hisseat None of his friends spoka to him.then, thinking it best to leave him tc hi»own reflections. He maintained his stolidlook for a moment, but when attention wa»drawn from him his mouth put on the saxueappearance as w\ >n he met Kilraiaat Rich-burg, with little of sorrow tempering thoferocity. The feeling passed away in an-other moment and when he got under therailing to leave tho court roost ho facedthe crowd with a broad smile.

"Stand up, Mr. Fitzpatrick/' said thejudge, in a kindly tone. Mr, Fitzpatricktook his place at the bar.

"Mr. Fitepatrick," said the judge, "iaview of all that has been said in your behalf,you appear to be a gentleman who was onlypresent at the light as a spectator and onewho did not intend to violate the law. Inview of the statements in your behalf Isentence you to pay a fine of K00/1 Fitz-patrick bowed and thanked the court, butsat down without having heard the amountof the fine.

District Attorney Neville said he was anx-ious to go home and asked that no morecases be tried until this week. This wasconsented to, and the agreement to ailowsixty days to file bills of exceptions was puton record and Judge Calhoun then mademotion for an appeal returnable to the Su-preme Court on the third Monday in Febru-ary, 1890.

HIS JDST DESEKTa

The Rewards of Perfidy Ar© NotAlways Pleasant.

James Monroe and Mary Murdockwere engaged to be married. Theyfcad known each other for years, andas their parents were fast friends andnear neighbors it seemed the mostnatural thing in the world that theyshould wed. They were the children offarmers, and from school days up hadattended the country merry making'stogether. Jfo "husIcing" or 4'paringbee" or "mtte society" were completeunless Jamoa and Mary were there.

James Monroe was a tall* blue-eyedyoung- man ot five and twsnty, withlight hair and a light mustache, whichlatter all the girls voted "just too cutefor any thing." As a truthful chron-icler we must add he was quite con-ceited and rather inclined to flirt

Mary Munlock was a brunette, acharming black-eyed miss who, thoughgenerally li^ht hearted, gay and laugh-ing1, had more than once shown that itwas hardly safe to trespass too far uponlier good nature. Her age was twenty.

One evening in July there was an icecream festival in Payne's woods nearthe village of Barnesville and abo nearthe homes of the two betrothed lover*,and, of course, they were in attend-ance. It was a merry gathering. Be-sides ico cream, cake, candy, peanutsand lemonade were offered for sale, allfor the benefit of the church.

The merry making was at its heightwhen a sudden hush fell on tho assem-blage and, all eyes were rivitcd on a gen-tleman and lady who were sld*\vly mak-ingtheir way toward the head dispensorof ice cream. The gentleman was bow-ing right and loft, and smiling withgreat urbanity thereby displaying awhite aud glistening set of false teethto much advantage. Evidently h» wason the best of terms with him "••"If, andas a natural consequence,wiih ::11 thoworld Why should n't Josiab Hurtoin, J.P., the wealthiest man in the neighbor-hood be on good terms with himself?

IJut it was the young" lady who at-tracted tho lion's bharo of attention.She was perhaps, twenty-five years ofage. very tall, with dark bluo eyes, andIsair denominated auburn by hor friends,and red by hor enemies, ot which lastit may bo uaid uhe had her full compli-ment Hor form was simply perfection.When I add that she WM rich in herown right, find the prospective heiressto another large fortune, I have, per-hup«, said enough to convince tho read-er that her lines had fallen in verypleasant places. Her name was Imo-gene Kurion, and she was on a visit toher uaole, 'Squire Httrtom. She hadtired of Saratoga; sho had tired ofNewport, the White Mountains and BarHarbor, and therefore in asudden freakhad left tho latter place for BarnoHville,arriving there Justin lime for tho lawnfestival.

After ga/.injf with Borne degree of in-tercut on the, to her, unusual andamuHintf tioone, she seated heraelf at asmall table to partake of cream andcake her uncle had provided.

Shohad Just daintily rained the spoonto her lip;* whon a blonde young mandeposited n glass of loinonnde in hoi*lap and full prone upon the grass at hor•Ida.

It, was Jamoi Monroe who had beendrafted in № a waiter for a shortperiod, and who harl unluckily stumbled•ver a chair landing in the shadow ofa tree.

•jf (ourso Miss JJurton was angry,not tfiJJil her splendid satin dress waairretrievably ruined, but at tbe awk-

of tho waol# affair. To have

a youn* «van fling a glass of Lemonadeon her dress and (hen fall at her feetas if sueing for pardon or her hand,and that too, before a whole grove fullof laughing strangers—even thoughthose strangers were "country bum*kins*'—was very mortifying to theproud and pampered Imogen©.

James arose to his feet with a scarletface and commenced stammering hisapologies. At first she greeted all hisexplanations with a curt "it is of noconsequence, sir," and a superciliouselevation of the eyebrows, wheu sud-denly it occurred to her that as theyoung man was of fair appearance andshowed some knowledge of the Englishlanguage through his embarrassment,he might possibly be the means of re-iieving her of her ennui.

In fact she resolved to commence aflirtation with him then and t i e re, andso when he had for the fifth time ex-plained how the whole thing happened,and bemoaned his stupidity and awk-wardness, glancing the while withful eyes at her discolored dress,hold out her white bejeweled hand withgreat frankness and smiled on him mostsweetly.

James, though highly delighted, wassomewhat taken aback by this suddenchange of front, but as he, as has al-ready been said, was rather inclined toflirt himself, and was flattered at herapparent interest in him, he made noaudible comments on her changed be-havior.

Taking a seat at the table he enteredinto an animated conversation with her,in the course of which she artlessly (?)gave him to understand that she wasvery sad and very unhappy, and thatshe desired, above all things, a friendin whom she could confide; a friendwho would sooth her when sad, rejoicewith her when merry, and be true toher till death.

Miss Burton looked tenderly at Jamesas »he uttered the above sentiment andsoftly sighed. Wnat^wonder the youngman's heart beat violently, and hisbrain was in a whirl? Was not he hob-nobbing, so to speak, with the beauti-ful and aristocratic heiress of whom thewhole assemblage stood in awe, whosepraises had been so loudly and persist-ently sung by her uncle* the doughtysquire?

The good people of Barnes villa andvicinity, being early risers, were neces-sarily early ratirers; consequently thefestival came to an abrupt end at a farearlier hour than Miss Burton's accus-tomed bod time.

"How short the evening has seemed,Mr. Monroe," she said, as she gave himher hand at parting, "and I have youto thauk for it Will you not call onme to-morrow afternoon or evening?Something tells me we are to bo thebest of friends. Will you come?"

"I shall be delighted to do so,'1 saidJames. Squire llurtorn coming up atthat moment, the young man reluctant-ly left the heiress and proceeded toseek out bis deserted and till then for-gotten betrothed. He found her seatednear tho entrance to the grounds, hav-ing with hor an old lady whom she hadprevailed upon to remain with her untilher receant lover made his appear-ance. She was very qulit, and as theypassed near the large lantern at thegateway leading from the scene of thefestivity, James noticed that sho wasdeathly pale and that there was an om-inous glitter in her jet black eyes.

The evening was a beautiful one.The stars shone brightly, the moon wasat the full and a cool breeze musicallyrustled the leaves, and fanned thebrows of the moody lovers as theysilently wended their way toward thehomo of Mary, which was near by. Atlast James broke the irkaome silencewith the query:

"How have you en joyed yourself thisevening, Mary?'1

"Vtvy well," was tho reply. " I twould be superfluous for me to repeatthat question, for I saw you were en-joying yourself immensely. You doubt-less found MUtt Burton a very enter-taining companion."

#II did," replied James. "Sho gaveme a very cordial invitation to call onher to-morrow afternoon or evening,"

"Do you intend doing so?" askedMary, in a scarcely audible voice,

<41 do," was tho curt reply. |"Then/* said tho young girl, in a

suppressed tone, "you need never callon me again. We will henceforth beas straugers. Here in your ring."And before tho dumfounded Jamescould reply sho hurriedly drew theirengagement ring from her finger, thr«»tit into his hand, and, as they nad ar-rived at hor father's gate, ran up thograveled walk and into tho house with-out a word of parting.

"Little Hpitfire," bald James to him-self. "The idea of acting in this wayjust because 1 converted with MissBurton a short time,"

He did not seem to realize that hehad upent nearly the eft tiro evening inMiss Burton's company, neglecting hisbetrothed to such an extent thnt eventhe dullost took cognizance of and com-mented upon it.

"Little wpliare," he repeated, "shewill be &» loving and friendly as everin a few day* and will be ouly too gladto take back lh« ring.

"In the meantime I will call uponMiss Burton. She really U a very su-perior young lady and seems quitestruck with me." And James Monroestroked №3 blonde mustache compla-cently, and ruminated on the statelyImogen*'* wealth in stocks and bonds,and her auburn hair.

On the following afternoon aftermaking more than usually elaboratetoilet, James presented himself at thedoor of 'Squire Hurtom's staring whitehouse and inquired of the trim old maidof all work who answered the summonsof the bell, if Miss Burton was in. Themaid replied in the affirmative andushered him into the "best room"where he found the heiress deeply ab-sorbed in the latest society novelShe closed her book at once and risingfrom her seat greeted him very warmly.

They were soon conversing as amica-bly and apparently as intimately asfriends of long standing.

When at the end of two hours, whichseemed but as two minutes to the infat-uated James, he arose to take his de-parture he was warmly invited to callagain. He did so on the very next (lay,when he was treated with greater kind-ness if possible than on his former visitThey played several games of croquettogether, during the course of which itwas arranged that on the followingafternoon they should take a boat rideoa Lily Pond, a small lake in the neigh-borhood, noted for its white and fra-grant water lilies. He also took herout riding behind his span of blood bayhorses, and on one occasion escortedher to church where the heiress cre-ated an immense sensation as she sweptdown the central aisle in her trailing,rustling silken gown, while he withhead erect, silk tile in hand, and curledmustache, was the envy and despair ofall the young men of Barnesville. Eventhe gray-haired old minister Was visi-bly disconcerted at the sudden and un-expected appearance of so much styleand elegance and lost bis place in thechapter he was reading, for be itknown. Miss Burton always made it apoint to arrive late at church as well asat all other public gatherings.

In less than two weeks it was whis-pered about by the gossips that JamesMonroe and Mary Murdock had quar-relled, that the engagement was broken,and that he was "keeping steady com-pany with that air stuck-up, red-hairedcity gal at Squire Hurtom's.1'

And it must be said it was all true,James had become infatuated with thefair Imogeae and danced perpetual at-tendance upon her. Her dainty ways,hor city bred airs, her varying moods,and above all the thought that she wasalready wealthy and destined at nodistant day to become still more so,wrought such havoc in the heart of theunsophisticated country youth that heresolved at the first favorable oppor-tunity, to use a phrase much in voguein those parts, to "pop the question."

Accordingly^ one pleasant afternoonwhen he and Imogene were seated on arustic bench in the very grove wherewas held the, to him, ever-memorableice-cream festival, he, after much un-wonted stammering, plumped down onhis knees And proposed in the mostdramatic manner imaginable—and wasgreeted with a loud and ringing peal oflaughter. Ho had never heard MissBurton laugh before, and the sound,however bird-like, or flute-like, hemight have considered it under othercircumstances, was, just at that momentfar from pleasant to him.

"Marry you," she said, when shecould fully control her risibility."Marry a farmer? And I suppose youwould expect me to milk the cows, andsweep, and cook, and wish, as do allthe good houae-wives of BarncsvUieand vicinity. No, Mr. Monroe, theidea is impracticable, and, I will add,utterly impossible; for I am engagedto a gentleman of New York and am tobe married early in the full. I haveenjoyed your company very much in-deed. You have helped to relieve thetedium of this beautiful though monot-onous place, and for that I am trulythankful, but tmch a thing as becomingyour wife has never once entered myhead. You mutt learn to forgot me.I leave for Boston to-morrow morning,and you, doubtless, will exemplify thotruth of the old adage: 'Out of eight,out ef mind.' And now let me give youa little good ad rice 1 have heardsomething of a little black-eyed girl towhom you were engaged and withwhem you quarreled, presumably overpoor mo. lioturn to your allegiakce.Marry her, sho vfill make you a foodwife, and you will both live to laugkover your silly misunderstanding, andat me."

With these words Miss Burton arose,and swiftly and silently glided from thegrove, leaving James Monroe dum-founded and crestfftllew, and yet with asecret feeling in bis heart thai ho hadbeen riglitly iserved-

After th<* first rwl»lings of his wound-ed Rclf-Urre had died out, he bethoughthim of Miss Burton's ad v too aud calledat the Murdock homestead- He wasuhherod into the familiar pnrlorwhere he had passed so many pleasanthappy hours, by one of Mary's younger

and, in a short time Mury made&•• WM M

and cheery as over and apparently har-bored no ill-feeling because of his pastconduct, but when he drew forth thoengagement ring she had so long worn,and attempted to place it upon herfinger, and again gain her consent tobecome his wife, she drew back with aquick, proud movement and said:

"Nos James, I shall always be afriend to you, but never your wife.You have shown plainly that you didnot love me a$ you ought, and I feel Itis best we should henceforth meetmerely as friends and neighbors. Iwill own that I have felt very badlyover the way—tho way you have usedme. But time heals all wounds."

"Yes, time and John Graves," saidJames, angrily, as he seized his hat" I have heard of his coming here, andif you care more for that lout than forme all I have to say is: Marry him."

Thus 8 peak ing, he flounced out of theroom, not forgetting to slam the doorbehind him, Mary's black eyes fairlysnapped with just anger and indigna-tion. But the storm in her bosom sub-sided as rapidly as it had arisou, and ina low, beautiful voice, she said: "ThankGod for my narrow escapo.'*

John Graves whom James Monroehad denominated "a lout," was a youngfarmer living about three ruik-g fromMr. Murdock's. He was a steady, up-right young man, not given to "puttingon airs," but honest and true to hisfriends as the needle to the pole. Hehad a large farm, bequeathed him byhis father, which he cultivated to thevery best advantage. In fact, he wasconsidered the best farmer near Barnes-ville. His mother and a maiden sisterattended to the household duties, whilehe and two "hired men" were constant-ly employed in bringing his broad acresinto the highest state of productiveness.Him the following autumn, Mary Mur-dock married. And at about the sametime Imogene Burton was led to the al-tar by "a gentleman from New York."—Thomas Burke, in Yankee Blade.

GERMANY AND FRANCE.

at General Wol*«ley Thinks or th» Ar»mies ot the Two Countries.

I take the German army as the high-est existing type of the military systetaand organization which the changeseffected in armies by tho breach revo-lution have led up to, and much as Iadmire that army as a soldier, I admireit still more as a citizen. Great as it isfor war, it is indefinitely greater as anational school for the moral, mentaland physical training of the people.Designed exclusively for war, it has be-come tho most important of ponce in-stitutions. In it all Germans are train-ed to strength and and taught the firstprinciples of personal cleanliness andof health. There they learn to behonest and manly, and are taught theexcellence of those virtues which serveto make men good subjects and law*abiding citizens. It is the school ofthe nation, in which deep love offatherland is fostered and cherished,and where all classes learn that thereis honor in obedience and nobility inself-sacrifice. The principle that meritshould be adequately rewarded, whichaccording to Carlyle was the uacoa-eeious desire of the French revolution,is realized almost perfectly in the Ger-many army of to-day. The Germannon-commissioned officer after servingtwelve years with the colors, knowsthat he will be offered civil employ-ment on the railways or in the policeor customs forces, and that this civilpost will be one higher in honor, andgenerally with better pay attachedto it, than he would have beenat all Hkely to reach in theopen com petition of life. And EO bedevotes himself to his duties when inthe army with an ardor else where un-known. It is a common complaint inFrance, on the other hand, that theirlion-commissioned officers are not asgood a* they might be, and that theyarc not extremely energetic may, per-haps, bo Inferred from the {act thattheir energy is not afterward rewardedby an assured and high place in civillife. Furthermore, it is said that thegentlemen volunteers of one year arenot the tfout'co of strength they shouldbe to the French army. In Germanytbe#e yoang gentlemen, we hear, arerequired to live for six weeks or so intho barracks with tho common soldiers,but afVer this period, in which they aresupposes! to have learned tho routineof barracks life, they are allowed totake private lodgings, and »o relievedfrom tho companionship which is dis-tasteful to thorn. h\ France tiro volun-teer to compelled to pass his year in the(Jhambree, side by ultie with tho peas-ant or workingman, who he not in fre-quently subflidi/es and turn* iato a »er-vant. In France the spirit of equiijHyscetDflhere lobe pushed a little too far,and we are informed the result iu thatthe gentleman volunteer be<;om*j* dis-contented, while the private aoWier 1Bnot benbfitted. But however rtal thesecauses of complaint mij bo, it can

be deni«d that iatiennany,1B France al*r>, the army

Is the great training school of theBfttioa in virtues which can not be toohighly #»W*med.~Cenertii Wolseleain ftrtalgfcily H«v«w.

MRS. BROWN AND MRS. GREEN.

Said Mrs. Brown to Mrs. Green,What makes your garments look so clean?No speck or dirt on them is seenTo mar your linen's glossy sheen;Your woolen dress that was so soiled,I thought that it was surely spoiled,Now looks as spick and span as thoughIt never had been spattered so!This fine old lace is firm and white;Your silk hose keep their colors bright;Your shawl, your gloves, are? spotless, too;That old print gown seems really new!

In vain my laundress-boi!^ and rubsThe clothes, and labors at her tubs;My newest garments soon look worn,Get streaked, and.lusterkss and torn.Said Mrs. Green, in turn: My dear,Poor sonp has spoiled your clothes I fear,Compelled your laundress first to boil,Then spend her days in fruitless toil.My laundress uses IVORY SOAP,And in its cakes for you there's hope;What in my clothes so pleases you,To IVORY SOAP is wholly due.

A W O R D O F W A R N I N G .

There are itiany white soaps, each represented to bs *' just as good as the1 Ivory f;" they ARE NOT, but like,.a!! counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remark-able qualities of the genuine. Ask for '" ivory5' Soap and insist upon getting it.

Be Compane Cbjrtut to » Strong Swim*to«r Who Spreads Forth Hla H»nu«

to S»ve th« Drowning—Sin Described.

9r. TWm»ge took fur hia text In ft recenteermoa the first part of the eleventh verse•of the twenty-fifth chapter of Isaiah: "Andhe ahsll spread forth his hand* In the midstof them, M he that swimmeth ftpreadethforth hia hands to. swim." The preacher•aid:

At this season of the year multitude* ofpeople wade into the ponds and lakes andrivers and seas. At first putting outcautiously from the shore, but havinglearned the right stroke of arm and footthey let the waters roil over them, and inwild glee dive or float or swim. So the textwill be very suggestive: "He shall spreadforth bis hand in the toidst of them, as hethat ewimmeth apreadeth forth his hands toewira."

The fisherman seeks out unfrequentedfiooka. You staud all day on the bank of ariver in the broiling sun and fling out yourline and catch nothing, while the expertaagler breaks through the jungle and goesby the Bhadow of the solitary rock andin a place wherf no fisherman has beealor ten years, throws out his line,And comes home at night, hisface shining and his basket full Ido not know why we ministers of the

-Gospel need always be fishing in the*w»e stream and preaching from tho same\tax% that other people preach from, leanftot understand the policy of the ministertfho, m Blackfriars, London, England,every week for thirty years preached fromthe epistle to the Hebrews. It is an exhil-aration to me when I come across a themawhich 1 feel no one elsa has treated, andjay text is one of that kind. There arepaths in God's word that are wellbeaten by Christian feet When men wantto quote Scripture they quote the oldpa sages that every one has heard. Whenthey want a chapter re«d they read a chap-ter that all the other people have beenreading, so that the church to-day Ja igno-rant of three-fourths of the Bible. You goInto the Louvre at Paris. You confine your-self to one corner of that opulent galleryof paintings. As you come out your friend•ays to you: "Did you. see that Rem-brandt?" "No." Did you see that fteu-bens?" "No." "Did you see that Titian?""No." "Did you see that Baphael*" "No."•'Well,*1'say* our friend, "then you didn'tsee the Louvre." Now, my friends, I thinkwe are too much apt to confine ourselves toone of the great corridors of. this scripturetruth, and so rtraoh so that there la not oneperson out of a million who baa erer uo-ticed the all-suggeufcive and powerful pict-ure in the words of my text.

The text represents God as a strong ewlin-tner striking out to push down iniquityAnd save the souls of men. "He ahailjprc&d forth Hia hands in the midst ofthem, ae ho that swimmeth spreadeth forthMs hands to ewiuv" Most of you knowhow to swim, Somft of you learned it inthe city school, where this art istaught; some of you in boyhood inthe river near your father's house,some of you since you came to manhood or"womanhood while summering on the beach•ot the sea. You step down in the wave, youthrow your head back, you bring your el-bows to the chest, you put the p&Jras ofyour hands downward and the soles of yourteat outward, and you posh through thewater as though you had been bom aquatic.I t is a grand thing to know how to swim,not only for yourself but becauseyou will after awhile perhaps haveto help others. I do not know any thingmore stirring or sublime than to see someman like Norm >n Me&enzie leaping fromthe ship Madras into the sea to save CharlesTurner, who had dropped from the royalyard while try ing to loosen the aail, bring-ing him back to the deck amid the huzzasof the passenger* and crew. If a man hasnot {enthusiasm enough to cheer in suchcircumstances he deserves himself to dropInto the &ea and have no one holphim. The Royal Humane Society of En-gland was establish ed in 1774, its object to

.applaud and reword those who shouldpluck up life from the deep, Any onewho has performed such a deed of daring2ia» all the particulars of that bravery re-corded In a public record, and on his breast& medal done in blue, and gold, andbronze; anchor, and monogram, andinscription, telling to future genera-tions the bravery of the manor woman whosaved some one from drown ng. But, myfriends, if it in such a worthy thing to savea body from the deep, I ask you if it is not aworthier thing t<> save an immortal soulAnd you shall see this hour the Bon of Godstep forth for this achievement, "He shallspread forth hia hand in the midst of them,as he that awimmeth spre&deth forth hishinds to swim."

In order to understand the full force ofthis figure you need to realize, first of all,that our race is in a sinking condition. You«oroetitne* hear people talking of what theyconsider the mo«t beautiful words in ourlanguage, One man says it is "home," an-other man says it U the word "mother,"another man Hays it i* the word "Jesus,"bat I will tell you the bitterest wordin all our language, the word most angryand baleful, the word saturated with thejnout trouble, tb« word thnt accounts forall the loathaomenees and the pang and theoutrage and tho harrowing; and tht wordU "tin " You Kpell it with three letters,and yet those throe letters describe the cir-cumference and pferco tho diameter ofevery thing bad In too universe. Sin lit teasibilant word, You can not pronounce itwithout giving it thesis* of the tiarae orthe bins of tho serpent, Bin! And then ifjo\k add three letter* to that word it de-scribes every ouo of us by nature-Alnner,We have o u t r a n tho la\r of God, not oc-casionally, or now and then, but perpetual-ly, Tho ]31b:o declares It Hark! Itthun-Covn two olups: "The heart in doc«itfulabovo nil things and desperately wicked/1

•The soul that niunoth, itwhall die." Whatthft Bible says om* own councience aftlrma,After Judtfo Morgan Uxtd sentenced LadyJ'an« (ice<y to duath hi* c<>D*cUnce> troubledhim HO nuoh for tho doer! that ho foe-.jnmo )i<ft:tno tmd nil through his Insanityhe >,'!p<i fluyintf: "Tako h«r awaytront rm!

that matter before btm and at every ttepol hi* misbehavior Jt sty*: "Wrong,wrong." 81a i« a leprosy, sta U a paralysis,sin 1B A con»tunptica> atn to * pollution, stais death. Give it * fair efeaaee and It willswamp you, body, mind and soul, forever.In this world it only g-ive* a faint intimationof its virulence. You see a patient In thefirst stages of typhoid fever. The cheekIs somewhat flatbed, the hands some*what hot, proceeded by a slight chill.•lWhy," you say, 'Typhoid fever does notseem to be such a disease." But wait untilthe patient has been alx week* under itand all his energfien have been wrung outand he is too weak to lift hi* little fingerand his intellect is gona—then you see thefull havoc of the disease. Now, sin in thisworld Is an ailment which, is only in ltavery first stages; but let It getunder full way and It is an all-consuming- typhoid. Oh, if we couldsee our unpardoaed ulna as God gee* themour teeth would chatter and our knee*would knock together and our respirationwould be choked and our heart wouJdbreak. If your Bins are unforglven theyare bearing down on you and you erelinking—sinking away from happiness,sinking away from God, sinking away fromevery thing- that U good and blessed.

Then what do we want? A swimmer 1 A.strong swimmer! A swift swimmer! And,blessed be God, in my text we have htm an-nounced, "He ahull cpread forth bis handsla the midst of them as he that swimmethspi eadeth forth his hozids to swim'* Youhave noticed that when a swimmer groeaout to rescue any one he putsoff his heavy apparel He must nothave any such impediment about himit he is going to do this great deed.And when Christ stepped forth to save usHa Bhook off the sandals of Heaven, andHi« feet were free; and then He steppeddown into the wave of our transgressions,and it came up over His wounded feet, andit came above the spear stab to His s i d e -aye, it d«hed to the lacerated temple, thehigh-water mark of His angruish. Then,rising above the flood, "He stretched forthHfs hand in the midst of them, as he thatswimmeth spreadeth forth his hands toswim."

If you have ever watched a swimmer younotice that his whole body is brought intoplay. The arms are fixed, the hands drivethe water back, the knees are active, thehead is thrown back to escape strangula-tion. The whole body te in propulsion.And when Christ sprang in the deep tosave us He threw his entire natureinto it-all hi* Godhead, His omniB-cenco. His goodness, Hia love, Hisomnipotence—head, heart, eyes, hands,feet We were far out on the sea and so deepdown in the waves and so fur from theshore that nothing short of an entire Godcould save us. Christ leaped out for ourrescue, saying: uLo! I come to do Thywill/' aud all the surges of human and «a-tanic hate beat against Him, a&d those whowatched Him from the gat«3 of Heavenfeared He wouW go down under thewave and instead of saving otherswould Himself perish, but puttingHis breast to the foam, and shaking- thesurf from His locks, He came on and on,until He Is now within the reach of everyone here. Eye omniscient, heart infinite,arm omnipotent. Mighty to save, evenunto the uttermost. Oh, it was not half aGod that trampled down bellowing Gcn-nesarct It was not a quarter of a Godthat mastered the demons of Gardara.It was not two-thirds of a God thatlifted up Lazarus into the erms ofhis overjoyed sistera It was not a frag-merit of a God who offered pardon andpeace to all the rate. No. This mightyswimmer threw His grandeur, His glory, Hismight, His wisdom. His omnipotence, andHis eternity into this one act It took bothhandso" God to save us—both feet Howdo I prove it? On the croei were uot bothhands nailed? On the cross were not bothfeet nailed? His entire nature Involved inour redemption!

If you have lived much by the water younotice also that if any one is going out tothe rescue of the drowning he must be in-dependent, self-reliant, able to go akme.There may be a time when he mustspring out to save, and be can not get alife-boat, and he goes out and has notstrength enough to boor himseli upand bear another up, he will sink,and instead of dragging1 one corpseout of the torrent you. will have two todrag out When Christ sprang out into thesea to deliver us He had no life-buoy. Hisfather iiid not help Him. Alone in thewine-press. Alone in the mountain. Alonein the sea. Oh, if He saves us Ha shallhave all the credit, for "there was no help,1'Ko oar. No wing. No ladder. When Na-thaniel Lyon tell In the battle charge infront of hts troops he had a whole army tocheer him. When Marshal Ney spranginto the contest and plunged in the npurstill the home's Hanks spurted blood oilFrance applauded him. But Jesus alone!"Of the people there was none to help,""All forsook him and fled." O It was uot aflotilla that sailed down aud saved us. Itwas not a cluster of gondolas that cameover the wave. It was one person Inde-pendent and alone, ' 'spreading out hl»hands among us aa a swimmer gpreadotbforth his bauds to swim."

Behold then to-day the spectacle of adrowning soul and Christ tbe swimmer. Ibelieve it was in 1818, when there were *ixEnglish soldiers of the Fifth futrt eers whowere hanging to the bottom of a capsizedboat—a boat that had been upset by asquall three miles from shore. It wns Inthe night, but one man swam mightly forthe beach, guided by the dark mountainsthat lifted their tops through thenight He came to the boach. He founda shore man that consented to po withhim and save tbe other men, and they putout It WM some lime before they couldfind the place where the men were, butafter awhile they beard their cry: "Help!Help!" and they boro down to them, andtbey sayefi ^h9in and brought them toshore. 0 that thl* moment oar cry might)x? lifted long-, loud and Hhrill, till Chriatthe f»wtminer dbftil come aud tuks us lentwa drop a thousand fathoms down.

TEASING CHILDREN.A Concentrated FoolUUn*** Th»t Bom*

BUlj P»opl« At* Guilty Of.Children are largely what they ore made

to be. The faults of their parents and theevils of their rearing are fixed in children,to be a part of their character when theynave grown up. They may be taught to bepetulant, irascible, quarrelsome, and quickto form their conclusions in ignorance; orself-contained, habitually demonstratingtheir conclusions, polite and of restrainedtemper. The practice of teasing childrenis a concentrated foolishnew that somepeople are guilty of. If a child has a littleweakness, they moke that a subject ofirritation for the purpose of seeing thepicture of the angry little ones, distortedwith a passion that does not belong to it,and they laugh at the sight of the injurythey nave wrought But if the child isresentful under this provocation, they arohorrified, the child is impudent or viciousand it ought to be punished. There aretwo kind* of children who do not miudteaming. One is of a naturally amiable dis-position and will take a good deal of teas-ing before resenting it; and the otherdoesn't care and would as soon be tor-mented aa praised.

Genuine Recuperative Re«t,Not absolute inaction, but a change of

modes of action, is recuperative rest to aman in his waking hours. He who wouldbe refreshed for renewed intellectual ac-tivities by au intermission of his ordinaryoccupation, must see to it tbat his brain Ukept at work in another direction duringthat interval, or he will return to his oldduties with less power than before for theperformance of those duties. To expectto gain strength in one's intellectual fac-ulties by on entire cessation of their usefor weeks together, is as unreasonable asIt would be to expect to gain muscularpower by refusing to use the muscles forthe same length of time, or to stain skill inmusical execution by refraining for anextended period from all musical practice.If, Indeed, a man were to intermit all in*tollectual activities during any one monthor two months of the year, it would be animpossibility for him to come back to biswork at the end of that time. as well fittedfor it as when he left It for this period ofenervating idleness. Recuperative rest isdesirable for every hard-worked man orwoman; but recuperative rest in one'Bwaking hours can come only throusrh. achange of work, never through an absolutecessat ion of work. ~ & 6.

The Beauty of Klndneat.What a beautiful quality is kindness?

How it soothes the careworn! How itcheers us when we ore sad and despond-ent! It costs very httle to administer it,and yet it carries with it a heaven of sweet-ness. Life at best possesses a large shareof bitterness, and has so mueh need forkiiully words and kind'y sympathy andkindly assistance. Many a sad heart onevery hand is almost breaking for want ofsome loving: one to share its burden. Andthese aching hearts do not comprise thefew of earth, but the many; in reality, theyInclude uearly all of mankind.

History records no more heroic deaththan that of General U. S. Grant, whodied July 24. 1886, after nearly a year' 8Buffering, of cancer at the root of thetongne. In May, 1877, when his sec-ond term of office had expired, GeneralGrant and his wife made a tour of theworld, during which the great soldierwas received by all nations as a sove-reign. On no titled man have suchhonors been heaped as on this citizenof the United States. Returning* toNew York, he engaged in business en-terprises ttiere. After a long andeventful life it began to look as if finan-cial prosperity as welt as honors wouldcrown his days. But the dishonesty ofa partner suddenly plunged him intoruin. He had reached the age whenmen cease from their labors, but thisdisaster brought out the courage thathad distinguished him during' the lateconflict—a higher kind of courage—and made him rise superior to disaster,defeat and calumny. He immediatelygave up his own and his wife's prop-erty to the payment of the debt* forwhich he was personally responsibleand then went to work on his me-moirs so as to leave his loved ones pro-vided for after his death. A fall on theioe made him a partial invalid for sev-eral months, during which time a pain-ful irritation in the throat gave himmuch trouble. In August, 1884, thedisease was discovered to be cancer attho root of the tongue, supposed tohave been induced by excessive smok-ing. The long1 months that folio wedare familiar to every reader of the dailypress. Amid the greatest pain thehero of the civil war toiled at his me-moirs, dictating to a stenographer evenafter compelled to take to hb bod,when the pain of speaking was so greatthat he would almost faint after a con-tinued effort. In March, 18S5, when itbecame evident to all that he had but »few months more to live, Congress re-stored him to his old rank in tho armyand placed him on the retired list. Horallied under this stimulus of justicehaving been done him enough to con-tinue his work. In June he was re-moved from New York to Mount Mc-Gregor to escape the ''exhausting' heatof the city. Up to the last Weak of hUlife he worked tb fulfill hi» contractwith hia publisher*. He was cheerful,tod ih spite of tha great pain. ToGeneral Butlef, who visited him a fewdays* before he died, he related a storyabout the Peace Commission calling ofihim, laughing heartily after ha hadtold the joke,

"Did you see Alex. H. Stevens?"asked Lincoln on that occasion.

"Yes, sir." replied General Grant;.' fSoo him in hi3 overcoat?""Yes, sir.""See him take it off?""Yes. sir.""Well," and Lincoln fairly roared;

"ain't ha the littlest ear out. of the big-gest shuck you ever saw in y««rlife?"

During bi3 long and prunful Hlnassho expressed only one wish, and thatwas that his daughter Nellie—Mrs.Sartoris—should come. This requestw»a granted. When asked where howould be buried he replied:

"I should prefer VVest Point above.ill other places, but my wife could notthen Us by roy side. Alter-that, GaiBua.or-'somo point in Illinois. Th-n in New,York, where the people have' been so•kind.."

THETPICNIC BAIKET.

Dow to Prepare m Number of Dainty Tid*Bltft for Summer Outlay*.

Probably there.will be needed morethan one basket for a picnic party ofmore than four persons, some for pro-visions, others for dishes and neces-sary articles. Pack together a table-cloth or cloths, towels, tumblers, nap-kins, cups and saucers (for coffee),spoons, knives, forks, plates (woodenplates will do nicely, and will not haveto be carried home), ice-oream saucers,a coffee-pot, tin pails for water, tinboxes of sugar, salt and pepper, and a•mall tin pail of butter.

To pack the basket so that nothingwill break, first put in the cups, sau-cers, plates and all the china, glass,etc., with the napkins and towels be-tween and the table-clot ha on top, thenfit in Una, coffee-pot, etc

For a summer picnic, cold roastchicken, cold baked hum, veal loaf, Bar-dines, mixed sandwiches, French rolls,pickles, strawberry water-ice, cakes,coffee, lemons for lemonade, and rasp-berry vinegar will be a nice menu.

To make the veal loaf, chop together,very Sue, four pounds of raw veal and& pound of ham, mixed with a pint ofbread-crumbs, a tcaspoonful of sa!t ateaspoonful of finely minced onion, twowell-beaton eg^s, half a teaspoonfuieach of pepper, powdered sage, clovesand allspice. When well raixod, put ina tin pan and press. When it is mold-ed, turn out on a baking-pan, glazewith white of cg<*, und bake two hournand a half, in a very slow oven. Whencold, slice thin.

For the mixed sandwiches, chop ham,tongue and chicken together in equalquantities; toe htili a pound of each,mix with each part hsilf a cupful ofmelted butter, one tablespoonful ofsalad oil, one of mustunl the poundedyelks of two hard-boiled eggs, a littlewhite popper, and a pinch of salt;ftprcad on thin slices of buttered bi'oad.

AROUND THE NURSERY.Tr**tm«nt of Infantile- A U a n t t - 1fhi»n

t« Expect B*b/'« Teeth,Infant children should sleep on hair

mattresses, with thin pillows of hairunder their heads. It is a dangerousthing to allow a little child's brain tobecome heated by a down or featherpillow. A light all-wool blanket is thebest bed-cover in summer.

The old-time notion that a child washealthier whan nursed through itssecond summer is now universally dis-carded by sensible physicians. As a rule,when the child has four teeth it istime to weau it. In cases when thistime fall3 in the heat of summer, orjust before the heated time, the wean-ing should be delayed two or threemonths. Lifelong weakness, the ricketsand other diseases are caused by nurs-ing children too long.

Summer complaint in children is notcaused by teething, but Is aggravatedby this condition. Bad air, heat, im-pure diet and overfeeding are thefruitful causes of this disease, so fatalamong little children. Among allthese causes there is no more frequentOne than overfeeding. The ignoranthabit of some mothers of feeding achild as soon as U cries can not be toostrongly condemned. In summer it isessential that a child should be fed atregular intervals, and at the samehours each day. Such systematic feed-ing ^riU save many children from alltouch of this dreaded disease. In casea child seems restless In the heat ofsummer, do not irritate it by tossing it,but try fanning it* or cool it by a. wU-fnTisalt bath; and, if possible, let it roll ona blanket under the trees and take itsnap there. The first symptom ofcholera infantum should be warded off,if possible, by applications of flannelwrung out of boiling hot liquor andkept warm over the bowels. Se«d forthe doctor in this case, as no time mustbe lost. In cose of cold, hot applica-tions of flannel dipped in camphoratedoil spread over the cheat often give in-stant relief.

It is interesting to mothers to knowwhen to expect the teeth. An excellentauthority gives the following list ofdates at which children usually cuttheir first teeth: The seventh monththe two front lower, then the two frontupper teeth. Then two in each jaw,next the front These come in beforethe tenth or twelfth month. Afterthese come the first double teeth, orgrinding teeth, which come any timefrom the twelfth to the fourteenthmonth. The eye and stomach teethusually dreaded by mothers, may comeany time after the fourteenth month, orbe delayed to the twentieth or twenty-fourth. The back double teeth, whichcomplete the milk teeth, come throughin some cases as early as the twentiethmonth, In others not till the child isthree years old. The milk teeth arenow complete. The double teeth cutback of these by children at about sixrears of age are permanent, and areusually known by dentists as the "six-year" molars. If cared for in child-hood, they often last to old age, thoughthey are more apt to decay than thelater teeth. —N. Y. Tribune.

Th« Vwbde7l>llt Syatem ofPew persons have any conception of the

magnitude of t i e interests covered byiueabove title, and very few even among therailway fraternity are aware of how fullythis vast system occupies tho field ia which,it is located; bat if you will take a map andtrace outjlrst, the New York Central &Hudson Biver; second, the Boston &Albany; third, the Lake 8bore & Mich-igan Southern; fourth, the MichiganCentral; fifth, the Cleveland, Cincin-nati, Chicago & St. Louis (formerly the"Bee Line'? and "Big PouV') railroads.

?ou will be impressed^ with the wonderfuloresight of the men who designed and ex-

ecuted the plan to operate under a uniformpolicy, and practically a common control, asystem of railways that should furnish unsur-passed transportation facilities to t_e greatcommercial empire outlined above, anda trip over this grand aggregation willconvince the most skeptical that the Van*derbilt System of BaUways, of whichthe New York Central & Hudson RiverRailroad is the main btem, traversesthe very heart of the business por-tion of this continent, touching, either di-rectly or through its immediate connec-tions, all the important commercial centersof the country, and offering to health, pleas-ure and business travel facilities that ar<*not equalled by any similar institution inthe world.

Coufidouc* Begot of Stteee**,So confident are the manufacturers of that

world-famed remedy. Dr. Pierce'- CJoideaMedical Discovery, that it will do all thatthey represent, in the cure of liver, bloodand lung diseases, that, after witnessing itsthousands of cures for many years past,they now feel warranted to selling it (asthe? are doiagr, through druggists) under apositive guarantee of its giving satisfactionSi etfSry vS&SL or money paid for it will berefunded. Ufa nteOKhns - s i ordinary xseritcould be sold under such severSuowxttionswith profit to Its proprietors, and no 6t&££medicine for the diseases for which it i»recommended was ever before sold under aguarantee of a cure or no pay. In all bloodtaints and impurities of whatever name ornature, jit is most positive in its curative ef-fects. Pimples, blotches, eruptions and allskin and scalp diseases are radically curedby this wonderful medicine. Scrofulousdiseases may affect the glands, causingswellings or tumors; the bones, causing4 'fever-sores." "white swellings" or "hip-joint disease;" or the tissues of the lungs,causing pulmonary consumption.

An Abominable T&gacj.A tendency to rheumatism is undoubtedly

inherited, unlike many other legacies, ftremains in the family. The most effectualmeans of checking this tendency, or of re'moving incipient rheumatism, whether pre-existentin the blood or not, is to resort toHostetter's stomach bitters as soon as thepremonitory twinges are felt. Nullifyingthe influences of cold, exposure and fatigue,the Bitters not only fortifies tlje systemagainst their hurtful consequences, but sub-jugates malaria, liver and kidney complaint,dyspepsia and neive disquietude.
