But 1t seems from his own words helped to

out of tie Church. How does ''we' sound

Master, Judge not that We be not judged"
As long as Mr.. B. continued in the doctrine of
Christ the Church extended to him brothcrly
love and fraternal greetings. But since he
abideth not in the doctrine Of Christ we choose
to live in harmony with Johns instruction and
will not bid him God .speed-sec Jno. nc, H..
He seeks trial by jury. What for. To be

can see no other reason than that he may at
tcmpt to burst asunder the Church of God, his
words TO the contrary notwithstanding.
Why is he not satisfied when twelve jury
men, the apostles, have given decision which
caunot be changed in time or eternity. Their
decision is not in keeping with his spiritism, is
the reason he il not satisfied He wants twelve
fallible men to prove that he has not departed
from the teachings of the Church of Christ and
that he is not splritist.

THE CALLED JADE WINCEs The
Milwaukee Sentinel loses its temper
because the TRIBUNE classed it as a
CROOKED Whiskey Journal" 1t
says the editor of this paper "may
abe simply fool, or he may be a
"malicious fool" and then asks "will
"the Mineral Point TRIBUNE man
mention his authority for the state
"ment that the Sentinel is crook
cd whiskey Journal" The Sentinel
evidently thinks that all its readers
are fools, as well as the TRIBUNE ed
itor, else it would not ask such u
question. The editorial columns of
the Sentinel for six months past are
our authority for denominating it a
crooked whiskey journal. The least
that flatterer could do would be to
denominate that sheet crooked ring
organ.

sion was over mile in length, and
the general verdict was that it was
more than was promised for 1T.
The performance opened at two
o'clock with the grand Oriental en-
tree in the circus, in which eighteen
horses and camels were introduced.
The leaping by members of the com
pany-George Adams, Frank Gard
ner and B. Beswick being the prom
inent features--followed. The cir
Gus performance concluded by Con-
kiln entering the den of lions which
is always an attraction. The hippo
drome followed Immediately after
the circus, and opened with a two
horse chariot race, driven by Miss
Rheinhardt and Master Walter Refs.
The Roman Standing Races, ridden
by young Leon and Frank Gardner,
came next. The race was genuine
one and an attractive feature Of the
performance. The running race by
Miss Maggie Taylor, Miss Jennie
Sawyer, Master Refs aud Foley were
all that the most ardent lover OF the
turf could desire.
After the big show, one feature in
which Mr.. Cole greatly excels in his
concert, which IS given by talented
artists, and not by common perform
ers, 21w2.

A WONDERFUL ESCAPE.

The friends of Mr. Fritz Zumann, of
Springfield, Mass, reported lost in the
terrible Bremerhaven explosion, have
Just received letters announcing his
miraculous escape, and giving
graphic description Of the disaster as
he saw it, as follows:
A box of dynamanite exploded.
The box was on a wagon, and was to
be shipped with our steamer. Such
power had the explosion that evrey.
body, say everybody in the cities of
Bremerhaven and Geestmude, were
thrown down. Windows were broken
at a distance of three miles and even
farther. Nearly everybody on board
or near the steamer had his ears burst
through the terrible din but my
brother and have not finger hurt.
When the explosion took place | was
down in the gangway of the steamer,
and all at once | felt as though two
cannon balls were boring into my
ears, aud then glass pieces, broken
plates q stood near the kitchen), J,
door, beams and boards, all few
around me, but nothing hurt me.
When in this terrible fright l looked
for an escape, found every way, on
both sides of the gangway blocked up
by the ruins. Locked up in the stea-
mer And | thought every second she
would sink, because it was my oppin-
ion that the boiler had exploded. 1t
took me two or three minutes TO make
way, and then, cropping my way
over corpses, boddies without heads,
some without arms or legs, over heads
without bodies, over lakes of blood,
found my uncle and aunt, both,
might say, naked, lying down and en-
bracing each other, groaning and al.
most in the face ofdeath. In the same
moment my brother fell into my arms,
sound and safe And the other two
are to be saved, too.

In Washington, Ohio, they tell q |
story about Ralph johnson, who be-
came alarmed when the ladies came and
prayed in his saloon. Next day he came
to them almost broken hearted, and
said if he could only get rid of five
barrels of whisky which he had then
on hand, he would join the temper
ance cause himself.
1--WE will buy your poisonous whis.
Ky, and pay you for it," said the la
dies.
"All right" said Ralph, and he
took $500 and rolled the whisky out.
The ladies emptied the whisky into
the street. Ralph joined the cause for
one day and then went to Lynchburg,
where they have 1000 barrels Of
proof whisky in store, and bought
new lot.
"What do you mean by doing this.

church.

"Open that safe," said a merchant
to an expert who had been sent for.
"Open it in twenty minutes and viii
give you $50" The safe was open in
five minutes. Gall right" said the
merchant, "here is S10-enough for
five minutes work" The $40 was
looked at but not taken, and in the
next moment the safe was closed as
tight as ever. 20, how is that?" "The
how" said the man, sis that | charge
nothing for closing the safe but $50
more for the next opening-S40 in all,

course he did, and whoever has any
thing to say on the subject can now
speak.
