Jury to CROPS. Burlington Junction, pre-
viously referred to, is described as pile of
ruins, nearly all the houses in the town
being destroyed or badly injured. Hail
stones as large as a mans fist fell in great
quantity, stripping corn and other crops
to the ground, and cutting down grass as
with scythe. A number of people were
injured, but none killed. At Maryville
the damage is now put at $l50,000.

The loss of crops is not estimated, but
may be imagined when it is said a strip of
country five to ten miles wide right

THE LIME KILN CLUB.

Judge Cadaver has lately fallen
into the habit of showing up at Para
disc hall an hour before the meetings
open to study art with no one to
bother OF make him afraid. By a
careful inspection of the busts of
Caesar, Jackson, Clay, Shakespeare
and Sumner, and by close inspec-
ton of the three or four sacred horse
pistols, the four renowned swords
and the half dozen chromos, he has
become almost a connoisseur, and
can tell the difference between gen
uine Reubens and tea-store plaque.
He was on hand as usual Saturday
evening. Samuel Shin left him
standing before bust of Caesar and
went down stairs after an onion.
Upon his return the judge lay sense
Hess on the, floor, and around him
were the fragments of the busted
bust. The judge had scarcely reviv-
ed when the meeting opened, but
there was no shade of pity in Brother
Gardner's voice as he arose and said !:
"Judge Cadaver will be given two
weeks to replace de bust wild new

will be fined about 'leven hundred

REST.

There is no rest. 'Ts but an empty sound
dream all shadowless the world around.
Unrest is normal. Every orb or ray
Greater or less that beams by night or day,
Sun. moon or star that burns thro' endless space,
Each in its course runs one eternal race.
God never rests-eternal vigil keeps;
The Eye All Seeing slumbers not nor sleeps.
All things obedient to one Lofty Soul,
Move ever restless as the ages roll.
Unrest is life-hope-act
Rest is but death-cessation is decay.
Unrest is real. The Glorious power that spanned
The mighty fabric of the skies, and planned
The architectural glores, far and near,
That deck each world and ornament each sphere.
Is constant in its work supreme sublime,
In restless glory through restless time.
There is no rest in all the realms of life,
Man is an epitome of endless strife;
The heated words which drop from human tongues
The breath that parts the lips and fills the lungs.
Each heart throb, each pulsation. every thrill
OF joy or sorrow leaves him restless still.
There is no rest nor can rest eer prevail;
The worlds in motion-mountain, forest vale;
The wondrous oceans restless currents roll
Around the sea-washed world from pole to pole
The cloud, the storm, the darkness and the light
Proclaim the restless force and restless might
There may be peace; the world in stiffness may,
Mid awful silence. pass the year away;
Long centuries hide in times eternal breast
Peace, silence. stiffness all-but, never rest.
Rest iS tho mi ha
Hopes faded ashes and loves crumblng dust.

HENRY WARD BEECHER ON

AS lecturer | often met him on

I often met him in the bookstores of
New York, where we were both of us
drawn by the same passion for books.

greatly esteemed him, and should
have been glad to see more of him.
He was very companionable and
tender-hearted man. / wish you
could have heard the testimony of
Dr. Armitage, one of the strictest of
the Baptist sect, who was personal
friend of DR.. Chaplin for many years.
He gave US a narrative of which the
papers say nothing, or next to moth
ing, of his last visit to DR.. Chaplin.
When he called upon him and found
him lying upon a sofa, DR.. Chaplin
called out in his ringing tone, "Come
in, thou blessed of the Lord, come
| in !" He went in and sat and talked
with him; finally he said to him,
''Now, DIR. Chaplin, l am accustomed
to make pastoral calls; will you ac-
cept one from me?' DR.. Chaplin
replied, II should be rejoiced to do
So" ''Well, then," said DR.. Armit
age, 81 must question you. How is
it with you? Do you feel that the
Lord Jesus Christ is near you and is
precious to you?<' Said DIR. Chaplin,
"He is my hope and my whole hearts
trust" After some further CONVEX
sation DIR. Armitage kneeled down
by DR.. Chaplin and compelled him
to lie still, and he took DR.. Chaplin S
hand in his and prayed with him !;
and he said all the way through he
could feel by the grasp of his hand
that his heart was flowing with his
and that at the close, DR.. Chaplin,
with reverberating distinctness, re-
sponded, 'sAmen, amen.' DR.. Ar
mitage sat in the hall, looking as if
his hair had been in a whirlwind
and he cried like shower in April
and / did not see dry eye anywhere
and it was beautiful testimony
AS, sometimes, at evening, after g
stormy day in summer, the cloud:
break, and the sun goes down in glo

ness and trouble and sorrow, at th'
close of DIR. Chapin's earthly life th'
sun broke out and his last hours wer'
radiant with Christian hope ant

ALL ABOUT DYNAMITE.

Dynamite is one of the many pro-
ducts OF combinations of nitro-glyce-
rine, and is about thirteen times as
powerful as gunpowder. The discov-
cry of this dangerous and potent ex-
plosive was made in 1916 by Ascagne
Sobrero, then pupil in the laborato-
ry of Pelonze, the eminent French
chemist, who devoted twenty years
of his life to the investigation of the
chemistry of oils and fats.
Dynamite was patented in the
United States, May 26, 1868, the
patent being granted to Alfred Noble
of Hamburg, Germany, assigner to
John Bandman of San Francisco.
It consists of combination of nitro
glycerine with substance of great
absorbent power, such, for instance,
as fullers' earth or rotten stone. By
this composition the explosiveness OF
the nitro-glycerine is controlled, as il
were, and the compound is capable
of withstanding all the ordinary dan
gers of transportation, while at the
same time its explosive power is not
lessened. The process of manufac.
ture is very simple. You take Ger.
tain proportion of nitro and sulphurit
acid and mix them with certain othel
proportions of glycerine, which is the
essence of fat, to make the nitro
glycerine. To make dynamite yol
only need to mix nitro-glycerine witt
some absorbent material - fullers
earth is the best-to have dynamite.

A FATHERS ADVICE.

The following is copy of a letter
which a prominent and very success
full business man of New York re-
ceived from his father when starting
out in life. 1t is something that
every boy should read and preserve:
Me- Dear Son: You are now start
ing on the ocean Of life, at your own
risk and to be guided pretty much by
your own steering, so that under
Providence, your future success, hap
piness and respectablity will depend
upon yourself. By way of assisting
you to shape out your course, L shall
make few suggestions in the way
of advice to guide you. When you
arrive at Mr.. - (who, by the by, is
an old acquaintance of mine and an
excellent man), you will deliver him
my letter, and as soon as possible
ask him to set you at work. Any
thing you are at an a loss about OF
don't understand, ask his direction
and do exactly as he tells you, being
particular to do everything as he di-
rects, and as neat and quick as pos
sible.
Should customers find fault at any
time, be very slow in contradicting
them, and then do it pleasantly, and
always coax them to trade, for on that
depends Mr.. rs success and your
usefulness. When there are no GUS
toners in, look around, dust off the
shelves, counters or floor, and see
that everything is in its place. Do
not be idle a momeut, and upon no
account absent yourself a minute
from the store, at least without his
consent, and seldom then. Be par
ticular in obeying his directions, and
should he find fault at anytime (Which
/ am in hopes he shall never have oc-
casion to do), do not answer back.
Above all things, be honest and new
er tell lie. In all things show him
that you are useful, and that you
have his interest at heart, and you
may depend he will use you we'll and
give you many advantages which will
make your situation comfortable to
Yourself and profitable to him. In
so large city you will meet with
many temptations and plots to lead
you astray, and that by those you
least suspect. 1 pray, my son. as
you value your character, your health
and your soul, do watch and pray
against them, and the less you are
out the better chance you will have
to escape them.
When you have leisure from busi-
ness, improve Yourself as much as
you can by study and reading at
home. By all means attend church
every Sabbath, for more persons have
gone astray and come to miserable
end by breaking the Sabbath and
drinking than all other causes put to-
gether. Remember that. And as
you baptized and brought up in the
Presbyterian faith, L would recon-
mend that you follow the same. Lay
not down your head at night or raise
it up in the morning without return
ing thanks to and asking the blessing
of Almighty God. Be particular
; with whom you keep company, for
by yonr company you will be judged.
Read these instructions frequently,
and may God bless and direct you.
