were demanded, and has been never

himself a man of uprIghtness, hon.
esty and wisdom in every emergen-
cy and under the most TRYING cir
cumstances, the son of this man
happily decked by on of the fairest

Rev. Carson p. Reed. l knew him.
My father, now Dead knew him
when a boy AS far back as the
year 1920 the father of the beauti-
full bride we saw tonight, gave up
all hope of worldly aggrandize-
ment and personal renown, and con-
secrated his time, talents and all
the powers of his soul TO the minis
try of the gospel, the good of man
kind and the glory OF God. He
was tossr- OF strength in church
and state, known all over the land,
yet born and bred here.
And Charlie" the little boy that
L once taught and loved, who in
his tenderest years was committed
to my charge for his moral and in
tellectual development and subse-
quently, even when boy, stood all
the privations OF the soldier, the
clash of arms, and the terrible con-
fict of battle! Charlie, now no
longer, but the elegant, accom-
plished, genial, courtly gentleman
has succumbed to the "babe dau4 b.
teri of my old friend, neighbor and
pastor. This is enough. l rejoice
at it.
We are all happy on account of
this union.
The ceremonies were conducted
so as to impress all present with
the sanctity of the vows taken upon
intoentering the holy estate of matri
mony. Everything was elegant,
beautiful; but nothing so commend
ed itself to looker-on as the out
spoken VOW of noble and true man
to love, cherish, support and pro
tect the lovely bride who, with mod
estly suppressed emotion, said she
would love, honor and obey him,
her helpmate, through evil as well
as good report.
If there is any truth in the Holy
Scriptures, God sanctifies such un
ions, and pray it may be so AHA.

To talk of doctrinal preaching, as
distinguished from practical preach
ing, or of practical as severed from
doctrinal, is a total perversion of
terms. Doctrinal preaching that
does not lead to practice, and prac
tical preaching that is not based on
doctrine, are alike absurd and pow
erless.

AHINT TO DRAM DRINKERS. Barkeepers pay, on an average, $2 per gallon for whisky One gallon contains an average of fifty-five drinks, and at ten cents drink the poor man pays $6 50 per gallon for his whiskey; in oth- CT words he pays $2 for the whisky, and $4. 50 to man tor handing it over the bar. While it would be better for all not to drink, some men will have whisky, and my advice to them is this Make your wife your barkeeper. Lend her $2 to buy gallon of whisky for begin ming, and every time you want drink 20 to her and pay ten cents for it. By the time you have drank gallon she will have $6. 50, or enough money to refund the $2 borrowed of you, to pay for another gallon of liquor and have balance of $2. 50. She will be able to conduct future operations on her own capital, and when you become an inebriate, unable to support yourself, summed and despised by respectable people, your wife will have enough money to keep you until you get ready to fila drunkards grave But had you paid all this money to bar-keeper, he would not have giv- en cent to bury you or crust of bread to keep your children from starving. Few pe0- pie ever stop to calculate the cost of dram drinking At ten cents per drink, one driDk per day will cost $36 50 yer year; two drinks per day will cost $73 three drinks $109 50, and four drinks $146 per year. A man came to me the ether day to pay the interest on note of $100 1 hold against him. Said he, II only receive $60O year, and with a family to support am not able to pay my debts." l asked him to take a pencil to make slight calculation for me, and then asked him how often he drank at a bar. His average was three drinks per day., which, by his own cal culation, was $1O95O or enough to have paid both principal and interest of the note and have $1.5 50 left He was astonished at the discovery and is now determined never to drink at bar again. -Camp5elrs Lecture at Mays field, Ky.

It is not generally known how near the Zu Jus came, after the disaster at Isandula to bagging Lord Chelmsford himself and his en- tire staff. The General would have ridden quietly into camp, which was in possession of his savage foes, and was already within rife shot of it, when he met an officer, who had es- caped, and warned him of the true condition of affair. The Zulus after their victory dressed themselves in the uniforms of their victims and prepared an ambush which would almost certainly have succeeded, had not one of them impetuously fired his rifle at Lord Chelmsford's informant instead of quietly assegaiing him in true African fashion. The bullet missed it's mark, and the officer galloped off just in time to save his commander.

RAPID TELEGR APHING.
The New Instrument.

NEW YoHK. March IS 1t is supposed that
the new instrument by which great speed in
transmission OF kilograms is claimed. is
sort of modification of the automatic machine
viewed here several wears ago, by editors of
New England, and which then transmitted at
the rate of 30. 900 words per hour, but in such
shape it would require the labor Of small
army of experts for twenty -four hours to1 de-
cipher an hours work.
The modification or improvement was test
ed by the Western | Mon several weeks last
year. under the presidency of Mr.. Orton but
did not develop enough merit to warrant its
purchase by that company. The principal
party in its interest is said to be Craig, form
crly connected with the telegraph and press.
