The aggregate capital of these com

international syndicate could make Il
tariff common to all nations, each to
receive its proper proportion of the
net revenues; the tariff to be adjusted
with a view to fetching moderate
interest upon the capital used to pnr-
chase it. The scheme involved a con-
tinued working of the cables by the
present companies through managing
boards under the supervision of The
international syndicate, If deemed adj
visable. The London Economist
pronounces the scheme impracticable
for the reason that 1t would be
found impossible to deter mine

Mr.. Miller might have recovered but
for his persistence IN refusing to take

crew patrollcd the beach, assisted by
volunteer corps, in search of any
possible survivors from the wrecked

ordered them of the premises and
threatened to shoot them if they did

THR BIBLEThe bible 4 I hoot

THE BIBLE. The bible Is : book
which has been refuted, demolished,
oyerthrown, and exploded more times
than any other book ever heard Of.
Every little while somebody starts
up and upsets this book, and it is
like upsetting slid cube of granite.
It is just as big one way as the other,
and when upset it il right side up
still. Every little while somebody
blows up the bible, but when it comes
down it always alights on its feet,
and runs faster than ever through the
world They overthrow the bible a
century ago, in Voltaire's time-en-
tirely demolished the whole thing. In
less than hundred years" said Vol
taire. christianity will have been
swept from existence, and have pass
ed into history" Tnfdelity ran riot
through France, red-handed, and i'm
pious. A century has passed away.
Voltaire has passed into history"
and not respectable history, either;
but bis old printing press, it is said,
has been used to print the word Of
God, and the very house where he
lived is packed with bibles. as depot
for the Geneva Bible society. Thos.
Paine demolished the bible, and fin
ished it off finally; but after he bad
crawled desparingly into a drunkard's
grave 10 1909 the book took such q
leap that since that date more that
twenty times as many bibles have
been made and scattered through the
world as ever were made before since
the creation Of man Up to the year
1900 from four to six million copies Of
the scriptures, in some thirty different
languages, comprised all that had
been produced since The world began.
Eighty years later. ID 1880, the sta
tistics Of eighty different bible socie-
ties which are now in existence, with
their unnumbered agencies and aux
illaries, report that more than l65,-
600, 10000 bibles, testaments, and por-
tions Of scripture, with 2O6 new trans
IatiOns, distributed BY bible societies
alone since 1904; to say nothing Of
the unknown millions Of bibles and
testaments which have been issued
and circulated BY private publishers
throughout the world. For book
that has been exploded so many times
it still shows ssigns Of considerable
life.
