Two mothers stand by the earth new.piled,
Where the graveyard grass was wont to wave.
One looks fond-eyed, on her smiling child,
But one looks into an open grave.
And both are weeping-the one with grief
That rends her soul with a sore distress;
And one for pity, in part but chief
From the sense of her hearts deep thankfulness
She hears the wall and the startled cry
At the hollow sound when the clods fall in,
And she claps her child with choking sigh
ooh God Oh God! If it should have been"
Two mothers come in the after years,
And stand at the side of that grave again;
But time, who chastens the mourner's tears,
Has brought to the other a fearless pain.
The one looks up from the sculptured stone,
With yearning eyes to tho sky oerhead;
But ali! the other makes bitter moan
For har dear one lost-and yet not dead.
She wrings her hands in her dark despair,
For one astray in the paths of sin,
And cries, she kncels by the small grave there,
''Oh, God Oh God! that it n ght have been"

lieves contrary to the Christian creeds. The re-
suit not satisfactory to the preacher. Last
night this same minister preached, his subject
being confidence in the Bible. The Professor
was there After the sermon the usual invita-
tons were extended to all who wished to fee
from the wrath to come. During this cali all
who had lost confidence in the inspiration of the
Scriptures were denounced as bloodhounds of
hell, as moral wrecks as the satellites OF the
devil, and as hydra headed monsters The ex-
pressons caused the Professor to smile The
minister caught the expression on his face and
promptly rebuked him. He declared he had re-
peatedly prayed for him, had prayedfor him that
night and now if God could convert these lnfdeis,
he prayed that He in His infinite wisdom and mer-
cy would kill them with thunderbolt aud send
them to hell at once, thus removing from the
paths of timid sinners the great stumbling
blocks. Several amens were heard in response
to this. To-day the Professor made his appear
ance on the streets decked with lightning rods.
He had main rod of No II insulated copper
wire. which extended from above his head down
his back, branching at the small of his back,
continuing down each limb and terminating I'M
der each shoe heel. Above his head this wire
branched of into three points similar to those
lightning rods Connecting with this main wire
between the shoulders two others led, one down
each arm, and terminated in three-pronged
points on each coat cuff He appeared upon the
streets just ahead of a heavy thunderstorm
and proceeded at once to call upon the minister
at the parsonage. The Professor is by no means
crazy. He says he only feels little annoyed to
think the preachers have such bad opinions Of
unbelievers, and that he only was taking little
precaution against the possible emergency of
an answer to their prayers. The thunder storm
was very severe, lasting over an hour and no
little anxiety was felt for the safety of the Pro
lessor with this strange apparatus secured to
his person. After the storm had passed
over he removed it and laid it away for future
use,
