A Sad Story from Canada.

A telegram from Ottawa says that one
OF the most horrible and heart-rending
tragedies that has occurred in the vicin-
lty OF that city for years, took place up
the Gatineau, near the Six Portages, on
Wednesday last. 1t appears that three
little children, named Forrin, went into
their fathers barn, which was full eff
grain, and set fire to it. After doing
this they climbed to the top of the NOV
and jumped around in a merry mood
until the flames began to get too hot.
They then tried to get down, but found
escape impossible, and commenced to
shout for help. Their mother, VINO was
short distance away, heard their cries
of distress, and ran to their assistance.
When she entered the barn all she could
see was dense cloud of.smoke and flame
and from it proceeded the most piteous
| cries of her little children. With a
mothers devotion, the brave woman
climbed into the burning NOW. No
sooner had she done so than she was
overcome by the heat and smoke, and
fell Oh her face in the hay, short dis.
lance from her children. Some of the
neighbors were by this time attracted by
the smoke rising from the burning build.
ing, and arrived just in time to see her
roll out of the NOW to the floor in an
unconscious condition. They picked hel
up, but she was dead After the barn
was burned down, the bodies of the thret
little children were also recovered, and
now await the action of the coroner
Mr.. Forrin was absent from home wher
the unfortunate affair occurred, and knew
nothing of it until he returned. Mucf
sympa ny is felt with him among th,
Deigbbors.

Alexander IT.

The present Emperor of Russia,
Alexander H., is in most respects
unlike the rest of European sover.
eigns. He is neither fond of mills
tary pageants, like his uncle, Will
liam |. of Germany; nor does he
like to occupy himself with state
affairs, like Francis Joseph of Aus
tria. Victor Emmanuel's afability
toward the lowly is foreign to his
naughty reserved nature and his
own people even charge him with
being more Of a German than one
Of their own race. But il one
respect Alexander H., shares the
predictions of his brother sover-
eigns he is a passionate hunter.
And in this respect he is a true
Russian, too for his favorite sport,
like that of the true Muscovites, is
neither deer stalking nor fox hunt
ing, neither spearing the Wild, boar
nor followed the swift-footcd ibex
and chammois to their Alpine fast
nesses, but boarding the brown bear
in midwinter in the sombrc pine
forests, extending for hundreds Of
miles in the level and sandy coun-
try northeast of the Gulf Of Fin
land.

ReaIizing his Stewardship.

The princely and perpetual Civ
ing Of the late Deacon Stafford, of
Boston, led many to suppose he was
a millionaire; hut to the astonish>
ment even Of those who knew him
best, at his death, he left a little
less than $4,000. Under con-
stant sense of his responsibility a>
steward, be cheerfully honored all
the calls upon his benevolence and
was wont to acknowledge himself
under obligation to those who pre-
scnted appeals to his charity. We
want more men in our churches
after this type; then how maguif,
cent will be our offerings, and how
ample the resources of our various
societies Now and then We meet
with an exceptional case Of fidelity
in the use Of money, but 100 many
are Sclf>hly boarding What they
have 10 right to hold I.gtr> pray
for the day when the duty II giving
will come to be as characteristic Of
Christians as their present >or0.3
devotion to gain.-Baptst Wcekly.

Pluck.

The hopelessness O. any ones
accomplishing anything without
pluck is illustrated by an old East
India fable. A mouse that dwelt
near the abode of a great magician
was kept in such constant distress
by its fear Of a cat, that the magi-
clan taking pity on it, turned it
into a cat itself. Immediately it
began to suffer from its fear of a
dog, so the magician turned it into
a dog. Then it began to suffer from
fear of a tiger, and the magician
turned it into tiger. Then it
began to suffer from its fear Of
huntsmen, and the magician in dis
gust, said, /" Be mouse again. As
you have only the heart of a mouse,
tits impossible to help you by Civ
ing you the body Of nobler
animal" And the poor creature
again became q mouse.

The published plan of the Vests
ern scientist for producing rain is
to "elevate copper wire by bal-
loon, or other means, until its upper
end reaches the Clouds hitch the
lower end to a railroad, and send
up currents of electricity. All a
farmer has to do for a safeguard
against drought is to buy balloon,
three or four miles of copper wire,
a battery, a railroad, and some gas
