HadcS.

The pastor of the lIous ehold OF Faith
will preach on Sunday morning on the
the Bible doctrine CT Hades. The word
Sheoi and its corresponding word Hades
will be followed from Genesis to Reve-
lation. The Bible location OF the scene
of the parable of the Rich Man and
Lazarus will be given, and also the BIZ
BILE teaching of the place.
In The evening the false doctrine of
dying into Heaven will be contrasted
with the Bible doctrine of the resurrec-
ton of the dead. The case of the little
boy who killed himself to get to Heaven
will be considered, and it will be dem
onstrated that the Bible was not re-
sponsible for his death, but heather
traditions. Quotations from the early
martyrs Justin and lreneaus showing
they denounced the view of going to
Heaven at death as heresy, also from
John Wesley who declares it is no
where taught in the word Of God, who
are omitted in the call of the l4Sth
Psalm to praise the Lord, and why!
Psalm Il5. II, Isaiah IS, IS. "Where
vert thou brother these five days =?

ATouching Court Scene.

A touching incident occurred in the
police court in Cleveland, Ohio on Tues.
day, when son of Judge Tilden was
arraigned for petit larceny. His ven-
cradle father, who has been the Judge
of the county for twenty four years,
appeared and asked that he might
prosecute the case against his own son
as matter of duty owing to himself
and the State. He then conducted the
examination, and at its close said he
was guilty, and when he referred to
the sad spectacle Of a father prosecu-
ting his son he burst into tears, while
his frame shook with the violence of
his grief. The police judge found the
boy guilty of stealing coat from COM
mon pleas juryman and then pawning
itfor money, but reserved sentence.

cusaion was provoked and the report

The Scene orthe szegsdln Flood

The Scene OF the Szegedln Flood.
LONDON, March 19.-Accounts from
Szegdin attest the gradual though slow
improvement of the situation. The
weather continues dry and has grown
much milder, thereby alleviating the
sutferngs of those who are still camp
ing out. The waters are steadily but
slowly subsiding. The Thesis river
has fallen thirty centimetres. Subsi-
dence is going on, though slowly, along
the whole length OF the river. The ap-
prehension which has been felt more or
less as to the saftey otSsentes, Csongrad,
Vasarhely, aud the whole country to
the extent of some thirty miles above
Szegedin, has been removed. Despite
the heavy blow which has struck Szeg
edin the population bear up against it
stoutly. In all the mass of fugitive
and houseless refugees not one beggar
is visible, and not one word of com.
plant is heard. They thankfully &C.
cept provisions, but not only do not ask
for relief in money, but in many
instances refrse it when offered. In the
hundreds were crowded.
The minister of finance came and ask
ed them whether they wanted any
thing, and they answered that they
had brought with them provisions for
several days and wanted nothing more.
Nothing can surpass the kindness man
Tested by all the surrounding country.
High and low vis with each other in
forwardness to relieve the distress
Emperor Francis Joseph and Her Tisza,
the Hungarian premier, and party on
Monday passed through the town in
boats. They visited the school-house,
speaking words Of comfort and promis-
ing assistance to the refugees.
The Neue Freie Press, of Vienna, sta
tes that $500 out Of 10000 houses in
the town have fallen, and 10000 per-
sons have been drowned. In the entire
submerged district about 100000 per-
sons were flooded out.
LONDON, March 20.-A dispatch to
the Strandard from Pesth says: Szentes
is again in great danger from the flood
on account ola high wind.
A Vienna dispatch to the Daily News
says: 267 moro corpses have been re-
1cvered at SZegedin.

The Wonders Of Science.

1t is curious how narrow-minded some
men are, and how little they care about
subjects calculated to broaden and benefit
their mental faculties. Such man was
half-asleep on bench at the Union Depot
yesterday, when very tall stranger with
very short linen duster on sat down be-
side him and said:
'sHave you calculated the pressure per
square inch which you exert on this
bench -
The s.eepy man scowled as he looked
up, then turned away us if he didn't want
to hear any more.
"Do you KNOW continued linen .duster,
':whether it is dead weight or force of

train moving at the rate of thirty miles an
hour?'' -...
'sNo, sir, nor don't care! I'm in no
mood for talkingr'
''Suppose," remarked linen duster, as he
squinted his left eye at the sun. ''that you

reply.
sDo you know how long it would take

asked linen duster.

A Speculative city.

San Francisco is in many respects the
most American city on the continent, es-
pecially IN its defects, there almost always
carried to extremes. Everything shows
at what high pressure people live. They
have, as rule, no repOse. no regular
method, no wholesome selt-discipline, no
understanding of themselves. Their con-
diticns are artificial. They exist in a con-
tinual state of excitement; the days and
nights are in constant whirl. Marrying
without reflection, without any guarantee
of the future, they soon discover their
mistake and seek release from he bonds
they have SO eagerly and unhesitatingly
imposed upon themselves. Life is emo
tional, sensational, carnival-like. Nothing
is, nothing has been, everything is to be.
Life, property, the whole community, are
speculative. There is no solid foundation
anywhere Of serious, recurring work. All
the inhabitants. from the lowest to the
highest, from the poorest to the most
prosperous, look to some lucky venture
for the golden reward of spasmodic effort.
When baked of their aims and hopes.
they impulsively throw off the lite which
for the moment seems uncomfortable. The
town is mine of gunpowder. 1t may
yield yellow treasures, or explode with
terrible effect, enrichment and ruin follow
hard and continually one upon the other.
The precious ores Of California have bene-
fitted the world, but have injured lis met
ropolis by making the real unreal, by
making all material blessings contingent
or uncomfortable circumstances. What
San Francisco needs tor healthful develop
ment is the acceptance Of the idea Of regu-
lar work with proportionate compensa-
ton, and the REIMBURSEMENT of faith in
convulsive and unearned success.-On,aha

New York Herald,

An amusing incident is related of the re-
cent visit of Henry Ward Beecher to this
city as chaplain of the Thirteenth New
York regiment. The horses for the field
and staff OF the Thirteenth were furnished
here, and when the stout and solid looking
bay selected for him was led out Mr..
Beecher inquired whether lie was perfectly
safe. The stable proprietor replied in the
affirmative.
Perfectly safe and reliable ?" asked the
chaplain.
Perfectly so,'' replied the proprietor.
''He will go anywhere, and is not afraid of
the military or cars. There isn't mean
thing about him.
Mr.. Beecher looked the animal over for
a moment and then quietly remarked: 81
wish he belonged to nay church."
