Dawson TOWnsite.

J. w. Brundage, a property owner in
Dawson, D. t., was in the city last even
ing, en- route to Glendlve and the N. P.
extension, on visit to Col. V. Beausen-
vein. MI. Brundage speaks in glowing
terms of the future of Dawson, and IN
conversation with him the following
facts were cleaned: A new depot build
ing 24x30 has just been completed, and is
one of the best on the road. H. B. Phil
leo's new store is finished, and we'll
stocked with general merchandise. The
finishing touches are being applied to
the residence of J. A. Coulter. and the el-
egapt and spacious residence of j. Daw .
son Thompson is about completed. .-
A large hotel will be erected this fall,
where the travelling public will fnd ex-
ceilent accommodations, and spOrtsmen
will make their headquarters. A resi-
dence for DR.. w. j. Calvert will soon be
commenced and three or four other dwell
lings will be constructed before the close
of avigation, as Jack puts it.
Dawson is :located about midway be.
tween Bismarck and jamestown, is sur
rounded by a beautiful expanse of agri-
cultural lands, with coteaus on the north
and south, and there are several fine
lakes IN the county which abound in
game of almost every description.

A Financial Statement.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29-Checks were
prepared at the treasury yesterday for
$71e,605 and for $34,ooo,214 to-day, for
the redemption of bonds included in pre-
vious calls, and which have only just been
presented for redemption. There are in
all above $21 100000 in bonds still out
standing, but which have been called in,
and on which interest has ceased. Some
of these bonds should have been pre-
sented for redemption eleven years ago.
Provision has been made for the redemp-
ton OF all of them whenever presented,
butjudgng from the lapse of time SINCE
interest has been paid on some of them,
there are many bonds outstanding which
will never be called on to redeem.

Capt. Paul BoytOn's Lecture.

By invitation Of the citizens of Bis
marck, Capt. Paul Boyton last evening
gave thrilling narrative of his travels
and adventures in his rubber life saving
suit through Europe, Asia, South Amer
lea and the United States, at the Bismarck
Opera House. He described his adven-
lures from the famous landing on the
stormy coast of Ireland to his knight
hood by Mercedes, the beautiful young
queen of Spain; his fight with sharks in
the straits Of Messina; roughing it in
rubber on the rivers Rhine, Rhone, Po,
Danube, Tagus, Tiber, Seine, Nile,
Straits of Gibralter, and the Qua del
Culver; the story of his struggle across
the English Channel. He exhibited his
celebrated little boat "Baby Mine," and
showed the audience how he could camp
out, build a raft, cook a meal, hunt and
fish without leaving the water.

Garffeld's Turning Point.

Mason's newly published life of Gar
field says: His first contract for work
was with his cousin, for whom he en-
gagged to cut hundred cords Of wood for
$25. He was not 16 years of age. The
wood overlooked Lake Erie, aud The
sight of the blue water and the ships en-
tering and leaving the port Of Cleveland
revived the longing for seafaring life,
which the reading Of books OF voyages
and adventures had inspired He re-
solved to become sailor, and, as soon as
his task was completed, he walked to
Cleveland and went on board a schooner
living at the wharf The crew were in
toxcatcd, and the captain gave evidence
of being man Of coarse nature and bru-
tai passions This damped his ardor, and
the same day, meeting another cousin who
owed canaiboat plying between Cleve-
land and Pittsburg, engaged himself as
driver. Three months later he was earried
home to his mother sick with malarial
fever, and in state of unconsciousness.
This illness, and the five months of con-
valescence during which his mother
nursed him back to health, proved a
great turning point in his life. The op-
portunity for which she had prayed was
given, and while with tender care she
nursed him, she sought to plant in his
mind higher aims in life than his boyish
dream nd pictured to him. The school
MASTER aided her in these cndcavo1s, and
as soon as James was sufficiently recov-
cred he entered the seminary of Geauga,
fourteen miles distant, as student His
whole stock of money was $17, but lie
rapidly acquired what proved Of more
value than money! knowledge oflatin,
Greek and mathematics There was an
end to his idea of the sea, and his thirst
for knowledge grew day by day. His
means were very limited but during yaca-
tion he employed himself in teaching,
and during harvest in farm work.

The Material of VanderbiIt's
Home.
[Troy Times.]


Vanderbilt has been criticised because
he went te Europe with Herter to order
all the glassware, chandeliers, hangings,
marbls work and much of the furniture.
Having made his money in America, he
ought to spend it here, it has been said.
The only art work done in this country
for the house are the bronze railings
around the house, and the broaze crest
ing around the roof This work was done
in nine months by a Philadelphia firm
for 1900. It was offered to Nitchell &
Vance, Of New York, who declined it be-
cause it was stipulated that it should be
done in three months. The chan
delers including one of solid sill
yer weighing half ton, for tha
hall room or picture gallery, are now be-
ing made by Barbodienne of Paris. Van
derbllt has two of Herter's mon securing
Europe for whatever may be unique in
furniture. Cost is said to be Of no i'm
portance whatever. "The more the house
costs the BETTER" Vanderbilt is said to
have remarked 10 an old friend disposed
to lecture him en the sin of extrava-
gance. From careful estimates it is
thought that the three houses on that one
plat Of ground will have cost when ready
for house-warming about $4,500,o ,o0O-not
one years income of this same Billy
Vanderbilt, who twenty five years ago was
hard pressed to pay taxes on his farm,
and, perhaps, wondered why poor man
like him had ten children to support.

Itwould be great mistake to suppose
that the Authorised Version of the Bible
will be superseded by the work of the
present revisors. There will be, as we
have lntimated, a protracted discussion
betore,the merits of the new version are
settled.
We would call attention to the Com
Ponaon Vot,tnae to the Revised Testa-
ment, published by 1. X. Funk g. Co.,
New York. This is a history of the work,
and gives in short compass the character
of the changes made, and explains why
they were made, being prepared by the
Rev. Alexander Roberts, D. D., a mem
Der of the English Committee. 1t is full
of interest, and can be had in paper for
% cents. The same house issues cheap

sent to English and American colleges
legations and consulates have been estab-
lished in foreign countries; native steam
ship companies are competing successful
ly with the foreign companies foreign
machinery has been introduced for the
opening of coal and iron mines; asail-
way is in contemplation from Picking to
Tlentsin, and from Tientsin to Shanghai,
and also telegraph line from Picking to
Shanghai; foreign ministers have access
to the Chinese foreign offices, and the
Emperor has practically relinquished the
traditional assumption of earthly suprem-
acy by granting the right of audience to
the ambassadors of the Treaty Powers.
Thus China is at last embarked on the
path of modern civilization. The popu-
lation is estimated at 40O,OOOOOOs. 1t
has been remarked that as race they
probably exceed either the Anglo-Saxons
or the Jews in the power of survival and
their capacity for making their way in
the world. They have the qualities of
patience, teachableness, persistence, COM
bined with clear, practical mind and
the most frugal habits of any people in
the world. The very fact that China,
starting in the race with Chaldea and
Egypt, has survived to our day, her civ
ilisation unimpaired, and her strength on
the increase, shows that they are most
wonderful people. The empire of Rome
seems but as passing shadow compared
to the duration of the Chinese power.

IF we mad absolute faith in the power
and favorable disposition of God, there
would be an end to all anxiety and I'M
rest. Our fearfulness, our melancholy,
Is the result of the littleness of our faith.
80 we of little faith" said our Lord to
his disciples. eff we have faith as grain
of mustard-seed, we shall say to this
mountain, Remove hence and it
shall remove" The amount of unbe-
lief in the heart is great beyond all our
suspicious of it. Indeed, although it
used to be said that no such thing as an
atheist was ever known, we believe that
there is great deal of practical atheism
in the world. If people believed in God,
they would not go on as they do; the
real explanation of much of the villainy
and wrong doing that we see in the world,
is, that in very many cases, the person SO
offending does not believe that he will be
taken to account. He believes, like some
of our learned NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. without
formulating the thing in his own mind),
in sort of blind nature or necessity, but
not In personal Judge.
But we have the assurance, "How
shall he not with him also freely give us
all things?" If then we believe in Him,
where is the logical room for doubt? If
God can make everything go right and
does make everything go right fos them
that love him, and promises with Christ
to freely add "all things" where, to
healthy and properly organised mind, is
the justification of carefulness?
Now it is the application of these
truths that constitutes the difficulty. 1t
is hard in the presence of some great
sorrow, or pressed by the perplexities
that sometimes crowd upon us, to rest on
even sound theology. But it remains
that the theology is true, and that the
wisest person will rest on that truth.
Just in proportion as God becomes to us
reality, will we give him our implicit
confidence, as a child looks without mis-
givings to his parent.

4 DISTINGUISHED MINISTER made

a DISTINGUISHED MINISTER. made a
remark to US recently that made an i'm
preston on us; we were speaking of the
success which is marking the missionary
work in India, Japan, China, and else
where. He observed that in the future
he looks for the great conquests of Chris
tianity In heather lands. The gospel, he
said, had been offered for these many
centuries to the nations of Europe, and
they had in large measure rejected it.
Now, he suggested, it may be Gods will
to offer it to the heather nations. They
may receive it more cordially. So Paul
turned to the Gentiles.
This is fearful thought, and we trust
will not be realised but it is worthy of
serious consideration.
