This was renewed near f. A. Walkers
house on their way home to Fairbanks

appearance in court. Douaghy dis

express from Boston, at the usual place,
and that this time he received two

Thoughts on the death of Flora, youngest
daughter of o. n. Henderson.
In the sickness and death of children
parents feel as others can not. 1t is
the taking of a precious treasure they
fondly called their own. Friends may
kindly suggest it is but child, and
why refuse to be comforted 2 But it is
bereavement not measured by the
length of life. Loving words and ex-
pressio6s Of sympathy from kind
friends may aid in bearing the burden,
but there is depth of sorrow no
human kindness can reach. Other
children may gather around, but an
other cannot supply the place of the
one that is not.
The little one was bud of promise
that brought light and joy to the home,
and when the paleness of death APP
peared it was the blighting of hopes
most fondly cherished. How sad the
hour and lonely the home when the
voice of the loved one is hushed in the
stiffness of death, and the lovely form
laid away TO rest in the silence of the
grave In the death of children their
earthly mission may seem failure,
but no failure when God recalls His
own. They leave impressions never to
be forgotten and an influence that of
ten ripens into precious experience. If
their mission is failure why should
one third of the race die in childhood I?
Why needful to become like them Or
why is heaven of such {? Is it not the
Good Shepherd going forth gathering
Jewels that will adorn the palace of the
great King? Then may we submits
sively say, like one of old, at is the
Lord, let Him do as seemeth Him good. >"
Severe as the bereavement may be
there is sweet relief in knowing we are
yielding back the precious charge to
him who gave. How comforting the
assurance that such receive the kind
attentions of the Savior, for He says,
Suffer little children to come unto me,
and forbid them not, for of such is the
Kingdom of God.r This precious senti-
ment is beautifully expressed by the
poet in the following verse:
II take these little lambs said He,
And lay them in my breast,
Protection they shall find in me-
In me be ever blest."
May the assurance wherewith David
was cOmforted in the death of his child,
be the comfort of bereaved parents to-
day: ave shall go to the child"

Lecture Next Saturday Evening.

II. ii. Raglan will give his illustrated
lecture on "Glimpses III Scotland" next
Saturday evening. Mr.. Raglan was
greatly enjoyed when here on pre-
vious OCCASION, and from reports re
ceived we have no doubt the coming
lecture will be of great merit. The
Chicago Tribune thus speaks of this
lecture: ellis tour through Scotland
with the accompanying views was
thoroughly enjoyed by all. Perhaps
nothing in the whole course so far was
more interesting than Mr.. Ragan's
recitation of Tam O'Shanter's Ride,
accompanied as it was with vivid rep
RESERVATIONS of different stages of Tam's
progress, until, with his 'auld grey
mare he reached the 'keystane' of
the brig at which critical stage of
her spirited career Meg lost her use
full, perhaps ornamental, tiybrush and
'feint tail she had to shake
The lecture advertised by Major
Dane is indefinitely postponed, as
nothing can be heard from him since
his injury in climbing Mt. Vesuvius.

Christmas at the Methodist Church.

Christmas was observed at the Meth
Odist church Thursday evening by n
Christmas pyramid, which was ar
ranged with very good taste on the
part of the committee, and was draped
with the ''stars and stripes" The ex-
ercises were very short, consisting of
only one recitation and several songs.
Among the many useful presents was a
handsome study chair presented to
Rev. Z. w. Culver by his Sabbath
school class Also a silver cake bask
ct and silver pickle dish presented to
Mrs. Geo. 2. Moore from the members
of the Ladies' aid society, of which
Mrs. Moore has been an efficient presi-
dent for the past two years. After the
presents had been distributed, MIR.
Culver made few very pleasant re-
marks with reference to his work here,
after which all went home feeling they
had much to be grateful for.

Prof. Woods Lecture.


Doubtless the unusually cold wealth
er prevented many from attending one
of the finest lectures i'm the course Civ
en- last Friday evening by the English
naturalist, Prof. }. G. Wood. By re-
quest the speaker gave his lecture on
"Ants of the Temperate Zone" A conf
plete history of these interesting ami
mails, from the egg to the adult stage,
together with curious facts that had
come under the speakers own Oh
servatiOns, occupied the evening. The
lecture was beautifully illustrated by
means of colored crayons and a large
blackboard, and the many-cOlOred ants
much enlarged were drawn very rap
idly and accurately by the speaker.
The last drawing representing two
ants fighting, was very unique and
elected much amusement. The de-
scription of an ants nest and the clev-
Ell way that it was discovered was in
teresting because Prof. Wood was
probably the first naturalist who has
studied these nests and given his re-
suits to the world. The ilftermission
allowed in the middle of the lecture,
if it is an English custom, might well
be imported, for both the lecturer
and the audience seemed tO enjoy
it. The lecture was instructive and
abouDded in curious facts about hith-
erto despised animal, and doubtless
more than one of the audience were
reminded of the advice the wise man
uttered when he said OF the ant, "Con-
slider her ways and be wise"

A Lively Runaway.
Last Wednesday Charles Jones of
Paddock Village was driving on North
Railroad street, when his. horse be-
came frightened by "a freight train and
his sleigh was upset at the foot of the
sand hill. The horse run off the bank
near the dry house on to the river and
ran down and came into the street
again near Deans grocery store, clear
ing himself from the sleigh and smash
ing the same badly. He then ran
home. Jones was carried home, but
it is thought he is not seriously injured.
