THE CROCK OF AGES"
IN TWO LANGUAGES.

IN TWO LANGUAGES.
Rock of A ges cleft for me!
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side that flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from Its guilt and power.
Not the labor of my hands
Can fulfill Thy laws demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save. and Thou alone.
Nothing in my hand bring,
Simply to Thy cross cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress.
Helpless look TO Thee for grace;
Vile, to Thy fountain fly,
Wash me, Savior, or die!
w.
While draw this heeting breath,
When my eyelids close in death,
When soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me!
Let me hide myselfin Thee.-Toplady.

Ugly Litigation Brewing for the Farmers on
the Line of the t., C. 8 st. L.
On Saturday last the railroad reporter of the
Journal dropped into the office of legal firm
which has gained large prominence In railroad
litigation, and there obtained some Information
which Will be of interest to parties who are en-
thusiastic in the matter of aiding new railway
enterprises. Some four years ago, when the
project of building narrow gauge road from
Toledo to st. Louis was agitated, farmers and
business men became greatly enthused in
the project, and several oily-tongued fnan-
cisl-aid beggars took advantage of this
enthusiasm, visited townships along
the line and Were very successful.
Not only did many townships vote liberal aid to-
the enterprise, but an immense private subscrip-
ton was promised. These fnanciaaid solicitors
hit upon novel plan to secure private subsi-
dies They went into each county on the line
between Toledo and st. Louis and took the notes
of farmers and business men, the former most
largely, for 800 each to be paid when the road
was completed and regular trains running from
Toledo to St. Louis. The Buckeyes and Suckers
subscribed somewhat liherally to this fund, in
the manner above described, but the Hoosiers
went in with vengeance, In some counties
1000, in others 1900 or 2,0OO-and some even
more-perSoDs pledged themselves to give 500
on the completion of the road. In Grant county
26O men pledged themselves to give this amount;
thus that county, In addition to the several
township subsidies most OF which have been
paid has yet to give this S25 600 As might he
expected, all through Indiana, these men who
promised the 500 each are disappointed in the
narrow-gauge affair, and refuse to pay this
money. The road is finished. and the Off
GERS Of the company have done
all in their power to persuade the
deiinquents to come forward and settle, but
they decline; consequently the Toledo, Cinein-
natl d st. Louis company have employed this
eminent legal firm TO at once prepare to bring
suit on their notes against ali parties who resist
the payment. AS Grant county one of
those in which these private subscriptions were
the largest, the fun Will commence there, and
those who are acquainted with the situation say
that these subscriptions in the way of notes will
certainly have to be paid, as the railroad compa-
ny has performed their part of the contract. The
fact that the track is in bad shape that no great
speed can be attained or that the road is not
fully equipped, it is thought will furnish no rea-
son for the non-payment OF these private sub
scriptions, trains are running through and
making reasonably good time for a H. e. road.

Tie train records show something of an in
crease in business with all roads centering here,
the Improvement seeming general in all direc-
tious. Eastward there is quite a brisk move
ment of corn to interior points, and the new crop
of wheat is beginning to move toward the sea-
board, yet not in such quantities as at the cor
responding period in former years. 1t will be
noticed in examining the loaded car movement
that this year, in the week ending July 81, there
were 14,245 handled, against 1906 the
corresponding week, 1882, there being received
and forwarded 4,461 less loaded cars this than
last year, and this decrease is largely in East
bound traffic. freight men say West-bound
business is heavier this year than in July,
1882. However, a handsome increase in
East-bOund traffic is looked for from this on.
North and south roads are doing fair business
as compared with July traffic last year. and aver
aging up well. The business moving is more
miscellaneous in character than last year. but

The Officers Go to New York-Money There
to Build the Road.
Saturday afternoon the officers Of the Indian

q telegram from New York stating that the COM
mittee of English capitalists who propose to fur
nish the funds to build the road had reached
New York, and on this Information P. D. Smith,
president of the company, Chief Engineer
Devore and his assistant, Eldridge, left for New
York Saturday night, taking with them the
plans, specifications, papers granting right of
way, etc. The bonds have been printed and
signed, and have already been forwarded to New
York, and it certainly looks favorable TO this be-
ing a genuine enterprise, Notwithstanding the
fact that officials of Pennsylvania lines want to
bet money the road will never be built.

disadvantage to the business being the closing
