MORE or THE DISCOVERY or THE ARK.

The story of the authentic Noah S
Ark embedded in q glacier on Mount
Ararat is still being elaborated by
the American newspapers. From
these sources we learn, respecting
the find of the Turkish Commission,
that "the inhabitants of. the country
state that the existence of this odd
construction has been known for
centuries, but that on approaching it
q hideous demon was seen at one of
the windows, putting the curious to
flight by is frightful contortions.
Without being inundated by these
stories, the president of the COM
mission has visited the mysterious
structure, the spirit dwelling in it
has been captured, and afterwards
was sent to an American, of Broad
way, New York, called Bunnell. {"
We also learn, on the same veracious
authority, that the documents found
in the ark having given rise to the
idea that it was insured in the Allan
tic Mutual Insurance Company, a
reporter has been sent to 81 Broad
way, to question Mr.. Dennis, the
vice-president of the company, con-
corning this matter. Mr.. Dennis,
after searching the archives of the
company, found in those of the year
1890 BIC. the following note IAN
ark constructed by Noah, the pro-
perty of Noah and Sons. Tonnage,
42,413,95O; length 25ft. !; width,
S7ft. Gin. !; depth of hold, 65ft.
Gin. Gopher wood. Destinations:
transport of passengers and animals.
Classed AL" Mr.. Dennis, con-
cludes the narrator, has been unable
to reveal the professional secret of
the cost of the insurance, whether
the life of Noah was insared, and
whether the menagerie was the sub
ject of seporate policy.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

The German element has, from the
first, been a powerful factor in the
national development of this country.
10 it we undoubtedly owe very
large share of our industrial, COM
mercial and agricultural prosperity.
We have used no artificial stimulants
to draw the emigrant to our shores.
He had come dependant upon his
own industry, intelligence and enter
prise. He has brought with him a
strong physique, thrifty habits, and
a stoidity of character that has
proved an invaluable introduction
into our national life. The Germans,
moreover, have proved themselves
singularly loyal and devoted to their
adopted country; the active and deci-
sive part they took in our civil war is
sufficient evidence of this. Wherever
they have settled, OF whatever oc-
cupation they have taken up, they
have shown themselves TO be law
abiding, God-fearing and peace
loving citizens. Boston Herald.

In answer to Ii,t. question Docs

VANCE cites the following; "Nauricc

deductng al outlay and counting III.
terest Oh the investment, they 'a'l

work, or an average Of $50 Mont!

Of course, the experience Of one No
b]es county farmer does rot de" Oh.
strate the proposition that farming
pays. There are probably other farm
ers in that county who can't show an
average Of nine cents month for their
years work. Nevertheless the solitary
instance cited proves what may bc done
and that farming can be made to pay
with proper management. Many who
don't succeed ut farming owe their
failure in part to Strengthened circum
stances and their consequent inability
~ work to advantage, but the great
trouble lies in the fact that they fail to
make the most Of their opportunities
Successful farming requires us much
technical knowledge and requires quite
us much study and close figuring as tht
conduct of any other business. Not
only manual labor bnt mental labor is
required to get the most money ont Of

pay well if the best methods are en-
played and proper care and attention
are given to the work.-Rock co. Her

THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND PR o.
GieE6S,


The ADVANCE gave some months
ago al account of the remarkable dis
cussion which took place in the Episco-
pal Convocation i'll England upon the
subject of Spiritualism, the drift Of the
opinion among the clergy being that
Spivitualism could not be ignored and
must be candidly investigated. More
recently we mentioned Il Notable SER
mon preached by an Episcopal clergy
man in Ohio and published in the Stan
dard, Bishop Bedell's official organ, in
which the speaker spoke brave and true
words AS to Spivitualism, saying that
it must he candidly met and investi-
gated.
Aud now comes Il sermon by Rev. DR..
r. Heher Newton, rector Of one Of the
leading Episcopal churches OF New
York City, published in the Sun OF
Dec. 81, in which the Reverend gentle
man says, 1.-The old view Of the Bible is
fading upon the vision Of our age"
Aud lie proceeds to tell his hearers
what to reject aud what to accept in
| this old Jewish record Of 4 remarkably
bloody, ignorant, brutal and super
stitious people. AS to the curse utter
| ed upon those who ''shall take away
from the words Of this book,' he called
it an ''impotent threat" and tells his
hearers to "heed it not"
| Further: In recent sermon on the
odious New York Sunday law, the
Rev. DR.. Shipman, rector of Christ
Church, n. Y, said:
"There IS Il religious day Of rest and
Il civil day OF rest, but the State has no
right to command people to keep the
Sabbath as a religious Sunday. The
two come on the same day, but the
State has rot adopted the Christian,
Sabbath-Only the day on which it
falls. Church aud State must he kept
apart, and the Sunday Leagues do not
see that their success would he a very
dangerous precedent. We may believe
that ope.,ing museums, parks and read
ing rooms on Sunday or having excnr.
sions by boat and rail are wrong, but
We hava no right to ask the State tc
stop it,"
This is exactly, in so many words o,
less, what the ADVANCE said a montl
ago on this subject.

TIE NEY NENAYllR

The Senatorial agony ended on Thurs
day afternoon last by the election of
Hon. D. NJ. Sabin, Of Saltwater. on the
seventh ballot. When the break up
came, Senator Crosby and Representa-
tive Johnson of this district went over
to Sabin. The Democrats also went
over almost in body, nine Senators and
ninetsen Representatives voting for Sa-
bin.
And who is Sabu? lie is a promi-
nent business man, Of Saltwater, Il
member Of the firm Of Seymour, Sabin
Il Co., manufacturers Of thresl,ing ma
chimes. Mr.. Sabin also heads the car
works recently established at Stillwa-
fer, and has III interest a number of
other ente' prises. lie is best known to
the people Of the State as the gentle
man who owns and controls the Min
nesota State prison. lie is largely in
terested also in pine lands and other
timber lands.
Mr.. Sabin is u man OF superior bust
ness ability and is personally popular
with all classes and parties. AS to
craftsmanship, we never heard Mr.. $.
charged with that. Certainly all the
main objections urged against Window
apply with equal f,rce to Sabin.
The feature which will most displpase
the people of the State at large is that
the central ring has again triumphed,
and the rest Of the State is left out III
the cold. st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Saltwater are virtually one city, and
the leading nen are interviewer in
scores of jobs and enterprises, which
make 1t desirable to control the Sena-
tors and Representatives, from MINES
Ota. They now have both Senators,
and we shall probably see few votes
cast which are not in the interest Of the
mouied classes. Slr Sabin's record so
far is us open to the charge Of ''boss.
ism" "riugism'' and ''monopoly' AS
any mans in the State. and We shall
be agreeably disappointed if he should
rise superior to his record aud surprise
