ford, to see such great audiences assem-
bled two or three times u day to listen
to the scripture teachings of an inlet
tered man, whose strength is to be found
in his plainness of speech and his earn
estness. While there are some who
question the methods employed, as work
ing rather on the emotions than on the
intellect, those who have attended
the meetings must agree that the gen.
eral result is good. Mr.. Moody's strong
hold is the bible. In every address
he has brought the great truths of
the bible home to the hearts of his
hearers in a manner to make then feel
that it is the book of books for
everyday life. There is no fear that
such teaching can do any harm. On the
contrary, it has doubtless accomplished
great good in quickening the faitho OF pro.
fessed Christians, and in leading many
Others to accept the bible as their guide.
He has not endeavored to teach faith in
any particular creed or to upbuild aay
sect, but to preach Christianity as the
faith to live and to die by. He has
spoken earnest words against all dis.
honesty or sham, in businessor in morals,
and by endeavoring to lead men to live
Christian lives has done a great work for
the benefit of society at large, by en-.
enlargement to lives of honesty, temper
ance and unselfishness. There Is always
need of such a work AZ this in this world.

There is no exaggeration in the statement
that thousands of persons residing from one

miasma, without mourning the disease, sim.

OF using Hostetter's Stomach Bitters rs a
preventive. 1t has frequently happened,
and the fact has been amply attested by the
parties themselves, that persons surrounded
on all sides by neighbors suffering the tor
lures of this shivering and burning plague,
have enjoyed absolute immunity from it,
thanks to the protection afforded by, the
Bitters. Nor is that standard anti-febrile
cordial less eficacious in remedying than in
preventing chills and fever, bilious remit
tents, and disorders Of a kindred type.
Taken between the paroxysms, it speedily
mitigates their violence, and eventually
prevents their recurrence. These facts, con,
vincingly established by evidence, appeal
with peculiar force to travellers and soiourn-
ers in malarious districts.

How Russians Battle.

We in the United States use the Rus
sian yspor bath as a medicinal agent only.
But in the life of a Russian peasant it
plays a most important part. No ortho-
dox peasant will enter a church until he
has cleaned himself physically by
means of the bath. After laboring
among pollutions for six and a halt
days in the week, he devotes Saturday
afternoon to the vapor bath, and care
fully avoids thereafter all pollution
until he has performed his devotions at
the morning service on Sunday. some
Of the peasants take their vapor bath in
the household oven, in which the bread
is baked. Others resort to the public
bath owned by the village. Strange to
say, Notwithstanding their scrupulous
care in this particular, some Of their
habits are absolutely filthy. While
bathing, the degree of heat which they
endure would kill a person not accus.
toned to it from childhood. And in
winter they often rush out of the bath
and roll themselves in the snow. Such
rapid transitions from extreme heat to
extreme cold illustrates a common Rus
sian proverb, which says that what is
health to the Russian is death to the
German. AS the old proyerb hath it,
zone mans meat is another mans
poison"

Devout life has untold power. Like
the forces of nature, it is often hidden or
obscure, but it holds and shakes the
world. Men may refuse to hear your
preaching; they are not able to evade the
argument of a blameless and holy life.
The aroma of it flls all the atmosphere ;
its doctrines diBtill like the gentle dew,
or like the small rain on the mown grass,
its lines 20 out through all the earth, its
word TO the end of the world there isno
speech or language where its voice is not
heard. Your religion, to be of any worth,
must be such Il lie. Profession is well,
but it is only the gateway to thelife only
the sign of the inward substance. The go-
pei was not proclaimed to give you u
creed, but to render possible to you a de-
vout life. You will be a power among
men, not inproportion to your knowledge,
or your natural endowment, but in pro.
portion to the sanctity and lullness OF
your religious lite.- Hjon's Herald.

HEAVY SNOW STORM IN THE HILLS.

Deadwood, D. T. March l6.-The heaviest
snow storm experienced since the settle
ment of the Black Hills by white men COM
menced here the 7.h and continued unabs-
ted until the 18th. The snow in this city
on a level is over FIVE feet deep, and all
mail and telegraph communication has
been interrupted. The last mail received
arrived from Cheyenne on the 9th. In
addition to mail coaches and passengers
a teamsters and freight trains are snow.
bound in the vicinity of the Hills, and it is
feared that much suffering and loss Of stock
will ensue. Considerable damage has beer
done throughout the mining camps and in
the gulches by the Immense weight of SNOW
crushing in the roofs of houses, and man,
parties have had narrow escapes. Every
effort is being made to break the roads. TIL
heavy snow fall has allayed all fears Of
scarcity Of water for the mills.

plEp IN rnE STORM.

Cheyenne, Wyoming, March l5.-Intelli-
gencc wa' received here to-day of u sad
death, cauaed by cold and neglect, on the
Laramie plains. John Connors, a tie-cutter,
. few. days previous to the storm, took his
wife over on the Little Laramie river, leav.
ing her in an old sheep-corral, without food
or bedding, going away ostensibly to get
employment. The woman was on the eve
Of her confinement. and during the storm,
alone and in this destitute condition, gave
birth to a babe. She was found on Wednes-
day. Herself and the child were both
buried in the snow. The child was dead
and the mother nearly so. Neighbors did
what they could with the remedies at their
service but last reports state that the
woman was too fargone to hope for recovery.
Mytann, the last of the four hunters
frozen at Cooper's lake, was found to-day,
and brought to Laramie. He was lying but
Il short disrarce from where the other three
bodies were found.
The owners Of sheep in this county are
very careful how they speak Of their own
Losses, but from inquiries made to-day there
can be no doubt that at least twenty thou
sand sheep were lost during the storm. The
principal losers are Hay 4 Thomas, 1000
B. F. Rug, $500; Crowley & Co., 5000;
ana AZ nearly every ranchman lost from III
to 20 per cent. the number will, it is
thought, exceed the number stated.
Great fears are entertained for the safety
Of the other fifteen men that separated from
their party at Bear springs last Saturday.
No tidings whatever have been received
from them, and as they were entirely out Of
provisions when they broke camp, there is
little hope of ever seeing them again alive.
Denver, Col, March l5.-Specials to The
News from various points give information
of casualties in the late storm. In San
Juan four miners were crushed to death in
a snow-slide at the Ajax mine. In Sultan
mountain, near Silverton, last Friday, two
prominent citizens were frozen to death.
One was A. B. Roberts, owner Of the Osceo-
la mine, and the other Alfred Sheppard 8

part of the state the snow is disappearing

THOSE WHO LOVE GOD WILL NOT Be sEPA.
RATED.

A beautiful anecdote of the late pope,
told by an English clergyman, reveals the
truly sweet and catholic heart Of him. Two
English women, sisters, had an audience OF
the pope, but as they were Withdrawing,
one, a convert of the Roman church, linger-
ed. The pope, observing this, recalled her,
and asked her as she kneeled what she
would ask. "The prayer of your holiness"
she said, that my sister may be converted
from professionalism, and that VI may not be
separated by DEATH" The pope, placing
his hand upon her clasped hands, replied
Daughter, those who love God will not be
separated in the next world" Even pro-
testants can believe that Plus IN, was in
fallible in that utterance.
