CALIFORNIA,

SAN Francisco, June ga report is
current that T. J. Winship, Jr., AS
sistant Engineer of the IShubrich', has
committed suicide. He wrote letter
to lager beer waiter girl, saying that
he intended to kill himself, and has not
been seen since. ABORTION of his cloth
ing was found on Broadway wharf,
covered with blood. His friends, how
ever, believe it is only ruse to make
think he has committed suicide.
HALIFAX, June 22.-Four more bodies
have been recovered from the atlantic
wreck.
YREKA, June 25.-Col Elliott, of the
First Cavalry, and Major Curtis, Judge
Advocate, arrived here last night and
will proceed to Fort Klamath this af-
tornoon. Col. Elliott will be the SEN
ior officer on the Military commission
to try the Modocs, as Colonel Robert
Granger, of the Twentv-first Infantry
has been excused on account of illness.
The Commission will not probably get
ut work until after the Fourth of July,
and it is thought will take about six
weeks to conclude their labors. In the
meantime it is probable that Col. Ea-
sons battalion of the Twenty first In
fantry with Captain Miller's battery of
the Fourth Artillery will march to Van
couver, rim Camps Warner and Henry
and Fort Walla Walla. Col. Mendcn-
hall with tho rest of the Artillery cam
panies will probably return to San
Francisco rm Fort Crook. Hasbroucks
light battery and two companies of the
Twelfth Infantry will remain at Klam-
ath until tho Modocs are disposed Of.

A Question with only one Answer.

A young man from the provinces, who
was sent to Paris to finish his education,
had the misfortune to get into bad COM
pany He went SO far as to wish and say,
There is no God; God was only a word.
After staying several years in the capital,
the young man returned to his family
One day he was invited to respectable
house where there was numerous COM
pany. While all were entertaining them
selves with news, pleasures and business,
two girls, aged respectively twelve and
thirteen, were seated in bay window read
ing together The young man approach,
ed them and asked:
"What beautiful romance are you read
ing so attentively, young ladies ?"
ave are reading no romance, sir; We
are reading the history of Gods chosen
people,"
"You believe, then, that there is Goda"
Astonished at such a question, the girls
looked at each other, the blood mounting
to their cheeks.
Sand you sir-do you not believe it 2"
"Once l believed it, but after living in
Paris and studying philosophy, mathe-
mates and politics, am convinced that
God is an empty word"
~, sir, was never in Paris, have never
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1873-09-19

studied philosophy or mathematics, OR all
those beautiful things which you know
| know only my catecbism; but since you
are so learned, and say there is no God,
you can easily tell me whence the egg
comes"
"a funny question, truly. The egg
comes from the hen"
"And now sir, whence comes the hen 2"
you know that rs well rs l do, miss ;
the hen comes from the egg"
(Which of them existed first, the egg or
the hen?"
II really do not know what you intend
with this question and your hen, but yet
that which existed first was the hen"
"rherc is hen, then, which did not
come from an egg ~
beg your pardon, miss, I did not take
notice that the egg existed first"
"Thcrc is, then, an egg which dill not
come from hen 2"
"Oh if you-bcg pardon-that is
you see"
Il see, sir, that you do not know whe-
ther the egg existed before the hen or tie
hen before the egg"
"Well, then / say the hen"
every well: here is, then, hen which
did not come from an egg. Tell me, now,
who made this first hen from which all
other hens and eggs come !"
"With your hens ard eggs, it seems to
me you take me for poultry dealer.
"By no means | only asked you to tell
me whence comes the mother of all hens
and eggs"
"But for what object I"
"Well since you do not know, you will
permit me to tell you. He who created the
first hen, or, as you would rather have it,
the first egg, is the same who created the
world, and this being we call God. You
who cannot explain the existence of q
hen or an egg without God still wish to be
able to explain the existence of this world
without God"
The young man was silent He quickly
took his hat, and, full of shame, departed.
