Before he started on the, southern trip,

A good many statements: have been

had gained, and the figure haSbeen Civ

wrote 10 her son to say she had heard
he had gained S25, 00os. AS matter of
fact the gross receipts for the eighty
Hectares were about $50, 200, and of this
sura Mr.. Carte received something over
$4,000. Out of this Mr.. Wilde's ex-
penses have been paid, and he is an ex-

any other lecturer who ever came to
this country, because he had to be ac-
companied by business agent and a
servant-a most unusual thing on lect-

creasing the expense. 1t is calculated
that the southern trip will increase the
receipts $4,000, and the tour through
the provinces $1,000. Just what the
terms are between Mr.. Wilde and Mr..
Carte are not made public and cannot
be ascertained, but both have made a
handsome thing out of the speculation,
for such they themselves regarded the
visit. Moreover, Roberts, the Boston
publisher, pays Mr.. Wilde a royalty on
his book of poems, and of course Mr..
Wilde's visit has greatly increased the
sale of his work. Mr.. Wilde has also
done some literary work, for which he
has beeu well paid.

an accident deprived him of one of his
arms. He subsequently became in
volved in movement which an
English jury considered reasonable.
and he was sent to penal servitude.
Thus he became known as a man who
had suffered at the hand of the British
government, and when liberated on a
ticket-of-leave, he jumped at once into
the foremost ranks of Irish idols. Men
who took the trouble TO watch his act
ion thought that his position was tenn
porary one and that he would be heard
of no more, but Davitt soon proved that
he possessed abilities far above the lev
ell of unreasoning enthusiasm. While
in prison he saw that if anything was to
be done to promote the well-being of
his country it must be by the accom-
plishment of something which had hith-
eTso seemed hopeless. He set himself
TO the task of uniting the people of Ire

1t is pleasure to many of us acting
Christians, or assistant church members
to learn, as we do from religious ex-
change, that brother Jesse James was
not member of the church during his
later years of usefulness, but that he
had withdrawn from the church when
he found that his labors in the vineyard
were not consistent with his bushwhack-
ing. For time after he became rob-
Der and highwayman he continued to
identify himself with the church. but
after each murder his conscience seemed
to smite him more and more. he be-
came irregular in his attendance upon
the place of worship, and finally he
asked for withdrawal card, and after
that when the brethren and sisterin
were at their devotions, at the PRAYER
meeting or the church sociables, he
was of holding up some belated night
hawk, or going through bank or a
railroad train. Occasionally he would
appear at the church and ask the
prayers of the congregation that he
might hold out faithful to the end, and
he would chip in S. note to the collec-
ton plate, and ride off across the coun-
try and kill enough travellers for a mess.
This information as to Brother James
takes great load off the minds of the
truly good, who have been unable to
see how he could reconcile his distribu-
ton OF bullets into the vitals of the un-
godly, with his following of the ways of
pleasantness and the paths of peace.
When they told us, about the time of
the funeral of Brother James, that he
was member of the church in good
standing, we couldn't see how it could
be, when he was loaded down with the
proceeds of his robberies, and three
stolen horses, and reward was offered
for him for murder. The people who
wrote that he was member in good
standing did not seem to know the diff
ference between a church and any 9th
er society. A man may be in good
standing in some societies if he keeps
his dues paid up, but in church he
may line the contribution box with
thousand dollar bills, and buy the ovs-
tiers for a sOsiable, and put up the
swings for Sunday school picnic, and
wash dishes aftsr communion, and 90

and heaps of moraine matter were
stored upon its TANKS. The glacial
