Bob Burdette's Advice to a Grumbling and
Dissatisfied Youth.
Yes, my son, I know, these expensive
funerals and expensive monuments and
costly tablets and such things cost
great deal of money that might other
wise go to the poor. / know that the
churches in the United States cost
many thousands of dollars which also
might be given to the poor | know,
my son, that our modern Christianity
is much given to worldly show and
grandeur, and has departed from the
simple ways of the fathers. / appre-
ciate your grief over all this. You are
not alone in your sorrow. You are not
the first man. my son, that lifted up
his voice and walled: ''Why was not
this ointment sold for three hundred
pence and given to the poor?n Come,
my son, let us reform things. Let us
sell all the churches and give all the
money to the poor. Let us bury our
dead in unmarked bitches by the road
side and send the cost of Christian
burial to the heather. Let us paint our
legs, let our hair grow long and 60
naked, so that we may send the money
we now waste in fashionable adorn-,
ment to the perishing millions of India.
Let US do ali this. Then, you see, the
poor heather will have everything and
we will have nothing; they will wear
clothes and live in houses, and we will
wear rings in our noses and live in
caves; they will be civilized Chris
tan men and women and we will
be wild barbarians, perishing in be-
nighted ignorance, lifting up our APP
pealing voices for the price of the box
of ointment Then we will know how
it is ourselves. Is that your idea, my
son? Stop your paper and pew rent,
then, and peel off your clothes. will
sell them for you and buy you spear,
a bear skin and string of beads, and
if I have anything left after deducting
my commission | will send it to the
heather. My boy, when you are
tempted to howl because body of
Christians builds church that costs
fifty thousand dollars, you sit down
and hold your noise and wait until you
see in how many years that church
sends out one hundred thousand dol
lars to the poor and the sick and the
heather. at home and abroad / tell
you. my son, when man invests one
thousand dollars of his money in a
church building he manages to pay the
interest on that amount for church
purposes. And then-but before go
ing on with this sermon you protest SO
vigorously against expensive churches,
what are you doing with the pew rent

Sandy Point, the CHILEAN Penal Station-Its
Location, Surroundings and Resources.
Sandy Point is a CHILEAN penal sta
ton, and large portion of the inhabit-
ants are exiles. When we were there
the war was still going on between
Chill and Peru, and among the prison
ers were two Americans, who had been
captured in an attempt to blow up the
Huascar with torpedoes. They came
very near being executed, but were
finally exiled. The Governor himself
was in a state of semi-exile, and found
life much more agreeable in Sandy
Point than he would have done in Val
paraiso. Gold was discovered several
years ago in the mountains about two
miles from the village, and quantity
taken out by panning, but at that time
there was no excitement about it. I
saw considerable in the form of grains
and small nuggets, the largest of which
was about the size of an English walnut,
and had been made into watch charm.
1t was thought thas some of the mines
would prove to be very productive, if
properly worked, but no one there
seemed to have the money or energy to
develop them. There is also q vein Of
good coal about three miles from the
village. 1t had been worked some a
few years previously, and railroad
had been built from the mine to the
wharf, but after war broke out with
Peru it was neglected, the wharf went
to ruin and the railroad was destroyed.
The only coal to be had there was
brought from England and good price
was charged for it. We coaled ship
and were obliged to pay nineteen dol
it ourselves. The timber on the noun
tains does not grow to a great height,
but is of fine quality, and the trunks are
of large diameter.
During the summer months it does
not rain at all, but every winter large
quantity Of snow and rain falls, so that
there are no dry years. The plains
furnish excellent grazing, and the soil
will yield good crops. There is every
reason to believe that5it will become a
good grain-producing country. / had
read much about the great size of the
Patagonian Indians, and thought the
reports must be greatly exaggerated,
but | found that they were true. None
of the bucks that saw were under six
feet in height, and they were broad in
proportion to their height. The
squaws are about five feet six or seven
inches, and are heavy, but not feshy.

RUNNING AWAY.

The sky was clear, the stars were bright
The grass was wet with dew,
When Johnny rose, put on his clothes,
And vowed what he would do.
" I'll leave my pa I'll leave my ma;
I'll go from here to stay;
My parents both have been unkind,
And so Ill run away.
I" I'll take my clothes, I'll take my all
A slave will not be;
I'll go out West, and do my best
III strike for libertyH'
And Johnny started bravely out,
And said he'd ne'er return;
He said he'd go where he could live
And let his genius burn.
He travelled all that summer night,
And brayely through the day;
And then he said: 81 wish that I
Had never run away.
I" I'm tired and weak-Pm SICK" said he,
With sadness in his tone:
60 1t isn't best to go out West
At least to go alone
sand now I'm in pretty fix.
And don't know what to do"
And then he sighed and sobbed and cried
Boo-hoo, boo-hoo, boo-hoo"
The boy, when found was taken home,
And was content to stay;
Said he: I'm cured, and rest assured,
No more I'll run away!"

detailed account Of the long and arduous
course of study that is necessary to sue

drilled thoroughly in mathematics, to
train the mind to exact reason. The
second year their time is taken up prin-
cipally by the modern languages. The
third year they plunge into physics and
philosophy, to give them habits of close
and accurate observation The fourth
and-last year they must dive deep into
law, ordinance and gunnery and the art.
of war. In the different studies the
marks Indicate close range from per-
feet, through fair, Indifferent, poor, to
complete failure. The regulations of
the Academy apportion the time of q
cadet in such way that each task must
be performed in specified hours, during
which he is wholly free from Interrupt
ton. Except ON Saturday afternoons
cadet sees very little of anybody else
but his professors and classmates.

True Story of Faithful and Watchful
Paper Carrier.
The railroad ran along one side of q
beautiful valley in the central part of
the great State of New York.
| stood at the rear end of the train,
looking out of the door, when the en-
gineer gave two short, sharp blasts of
the steam whistle. The conductor, who
had been reading newspaper in a seat
near me, arose, and, touching my shout
der, asked if wanted to see a "real
country newsboy." I, of course, an
swered g Yes" So we stepped out on
the platform of the car.
The conductor had folded up his
paper in tight roll, which he held in
his right hand, while he stood on the
lower step of the car, holding on by
his left.
| saw him begin to wave the paper
inst as we swung around a curve in the
track, and a neat farm house came into
view away off across some open fields.
Suddenly the conductor flung the
paper off tow$rd the fence by the side
of the railroad, and | saw black,
shaggy form leap quite over the fence
from the meadow beyond it. and alight
just where the newspaper, after bounc-
ing along in the grass. had fallen be-
side a tall mullen stalk in an angle Of
the fence.
1t was big. black dog. He stood
beside the paper, wagging his tail and
watching us, as the train moved swiftly
away from him. Then he snatched
the paper from the ground in his teeth,
and, leaping over the fence again,
away he went across the fields toward
the farmhouse.
When we last saw him, he was a
mere black speck, moving over the
meadows, and then the cars rushed
through deep cleft in the hillside, and
the whole scene passed from our view.

The official statement of Adiutant-
General Drum settles matter about
which there has been considerable
wild speculation, namely, the number
of deaths during the war of Union
soldiers. The official statement now
shows that, including 29,49S deaths
among the Union soldiers held as pris-
oners of war, the aggregate was 359,-
496. 1t seems to be impossible to
ascertain the exact number of men
who were in service. Some of the re-
turns were duplicated, and some of the
men enlisted more than once, and it is
the official estimate that about 2,5OO,-
900 men in all served in the Union
Army. According to this estimate, the
proportion of deaths was nearly one
and half in ten, or, more accurately,
IA in every 1000.

The Republicans of Ohio have met
in State Convention, and re-nominated
General Jos. b. Foraker, of Cincin-
matt. Governor. The nominee was a
gallant soldier during the late war,
serving from its beginning to its close.
He was the Republican candidate for
Governor in 1888 but was defeated in
the tidal wave of that year Hon.
James g. Blaine has written a letter to
General Foraker in which he congrat-
ulates him on receiving the nominal
ton, and states that he will assist him
during the campaign by the delivery
of several speeches in various parts of
the State. The indications are that
the Republican ticket will be chosen
in Ohio this year by large majority,
the party being united, harmonious,
and aggressive.
