Jonah and the Whale.

A reader of the Philadelphia Nescs,
contributes the following extract from
composition of little African girl,
who was wild savage few years ago,
but is now in the orphanage of Cape
Palmas:
HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY, AND THE EARTH.
Do you know what history is? His
tory, as you know, teaches us what is
to happen in the past event.
Geography shows us where the thing
has happened at History tells US
where Adam and Eve were created,
and geography shows us where the
garden of Eden is, which continent,
and which division. History tells US
that Adam was the first man that was
created. and while he was sleeping
God took out one of his ribs and made
Eve.
After awhile Eve went to walk
among the trees of the garden. Con-
versation took place between her and
the devil. The devil told her to eat
some kind of fruit which God had told
her and Adam not to eat. She took it
and ate it, and also took some for her
husband. When Adam saw it he did
not take time to ask Eve where she got
it from.
History. geography, and the earth
just do to go together. One tells us
about that, one about this, etc. His
tories are interesting to read, indeed
they are. 1t tells US something about
the whale. The whale is the largest
animal in the sea. Whale is spoken of
in the bible. When God had sent
Jonah to Nineveh to preach to the peo-
pie about their sins, Jonah refused to
90. He went into ship with some
people. He just went in there to hide
from God. But God caused storm to
take place. The ship went from this
way to that way. The people were
afraid indeed. and they began to cast
lots. The lot fell upon him. They
took him up and throwed him into ths
sea.
While he was going to the very bot
tom of tie sea, he met with this ami
mai. The whale said: my friend,
where are YOU going?" Jonah answer
ed and said: Il have disobeyed my
God. and l am trying to hide from his
face"
The whale said: '.You ought to be
ashamed of yourself. Don't you know
that neither YOU nor l can not hide
from his face?' Jonah said: ''Oh.
whale, am so afraid l don't know
what am saying or doing"
The whale said: Jonah, o Jonah,
take heed to yourself, for indeed l will
swallow YOU" Have mercy on me,
o whale, and if it is Gods will, he will
carry me safe to land 50 l may obey
him."
The whale said: Jonah, put your
head in my mouth, and get ready for
your life"
Jonah ss:G: whale, l think you
had better swallow me. because l see
there is no use in talking"
The whale said: Jonah, the idea
of your running away from God. You
will bear the consequences. That is
all have got to say" At the same
time he did swallow him up. Jonah
thought the whales body was the grave
and end. He did not think he could
get to the shore any more, therefore
he offered up prayer to God for his
soul, if he should die before he could
get to the shore. if it was Gods will
to carry his soul to heaven. The whale
did not rest day after day and night
after night, and SO after three days the
whale went to the shore and vomited
Jonah up.
Jonah was just like a drowned rat

| sweeping Away the Last Doubts of Success
of tn. Republican Tickrt-Resoiution
by the Springfield Club Further as to
Friday Evenings Rally.
In all can1or and fairness, viewing the sit
uation from every standpoint, the success of
the Republican ticket iu Mondays election
seems now beyond reasonable doubt. the only
danger being from over-conideuce leading
some to stay away from the polls who might
exert themselves 10 extent OF casting ballot
if the contest were little less sided
Ii is for this class TO remember
that, so far as the moral effect
OF the election is concerned, the
size of the majority is important The cleo
ton of the Republican candidates by bare
plurality would not have half the sguiti-
canoe that full, round thousand or twelve
hundred would have. There seems further
it may be stated, some apprehension that the
candidate for City Marshal, Wm. II. Hughes,
is in some special danger. The Democracy,
abandoning all hope of forcing Jake Smith
on the community, concentrating their eff rts
in desperate attempt to save O'Brieu Ger
tainly it will not be highly creditable to the
city for the voters time to allow a saloon
keeper to be placed in power rather than
tried and faithful officer and ex-solder. Mr.. |
Hughes, upon leave OF absence, has |
been circulating among the people |
for day or two, and has |
everywhere made friends OF sort that help |
man at such times with their support. Ia |
short, no candidate on the ticket should be |
scratched" as one is as worthy as another,
and all are of the best standing.

stay out OF the parade on that account. 1t is
also suggested, without action having been
taken, that in the not improbable event of the
death of Gen. Grant before the time for the
meeting the parade be dispensed with and
the meeting thrown open to all citizens as q
memorial gathering to do honor to the dis
tinguished deceased. Uuless formal announce
ment is made regarding it, there will be no

Where Are Your Sons?

What a question that will be for pa
rents when they stand before God in
Judgment. Some will be able to say,
as with radiant face they look into his
who stitch upon the throne: " Here
are we and the children whom thou
hast given u.s." That alone will be Joy
enough to fill eternity. But will all be
able to say that? Where are my sons?
l say sons, because they are most ex-
posed in this evil day. Are they cult
waiting a taste for Gods house, or for
the follies of the world? Do they be-
lieve and read Gods Word, or are they
being caught up and borne along in
the roaring flood of unbelief and sin?
Are they learning to pray-or rather to
profane Gods name, to desecrate his
day and to despise his house? Every
parent knows just how it is, and
whether the example and teaching, and
influence of the home, are on the right
or wrong side. These are solemn
questions. If ever they are to be
answered for good, they must be an
swered now. | beseech you, give
them prayerful attention before the
gates of eternity open before your adj
vancing step and close behind you for
ver.--E1change.

Senator Garland's Nerve.

Not long ago Garland hit Butler
pretty hard. That is to say, he got
very good one on him, and Butler laid
for the senator from Arkansas. Know
ing Garland's fondness for candy, he
procured some caramels and also some
cubes of brown soap, which, when
wrapped in their tissue paper, precisely
resemble to the eye the caramels.
Butler knew that if he tried to put the
cubes of soap off on Garland he would
the alert so far as he was concerned.
So Voorhees, of Indiana, who sits next
to Garland, was chosen for the con-
federate. Said Butler to Voorhees,:
Here are two genuine caramels. Go
to your seat, lay the soap cubes on
your desk, eat the genuine caramels,
put your trust in Providence, and say
nothing" Voorhees, did as he was
told. Garland observed the cubes on
the desk, and saw that Voorhees, was
eating something with an evident rel
ish. " Hello" said Garland "What
are you eating?" "I've got cold and
Pm eating some candy" replied Voor-
hees, very much absorbed in some
papers in his hands. Garland looked
at the counterfeits wistfully for mo-
ment. "Hum," he said, finally, as he
picked one up. GIVE got something
of cold myself" and he popped the
piece of soap into his mouth. There
was crunching of his jaws and he
saw he was caught. Voorhees, watched
him out of the tail of his eye, as did a
dozen others of the old boys sitting
around. Garland knew he was under
fire, but he determined not to finch.
After chewing his soap for moment
he looked up at Voorhees, with the in
imitable air of innocent earnestness
that is characteristic of him, and softly
asked: "Do you eat many of these
things when you have cold?' As
Garland kept on chewing, an almost
imperceptible strip of lather formed on
his lips. Voorhees, became alarmed
and went to Butler. "The fellow is
actually eating that stuff. Why, it will
kill him, won't it?" No-o-o," drawled
Butler. 81 don't reckon anything will
kill that man." Garland was game.
He finished his soap, and no man could
say that he looked as if he didn't enjoy
it.-Kansas City Times.

Select gflistellamp.
Miss Cleveland.

An Albany newspaper correspondent,
writing about the sister of President
Cleveland, recently said: Miss r.. Z.
Cleveland is the mistress of the White
House. She did not Join the household
in the governors mansion here, but has
been with him great deal since he re-
tired to the Towner residence, on his
resignation of the governorship. 1t
was with reluctance that she consented
to go to Washington to take charge of
The presidential domicle. She has
been an earnest and industrious woman,
and never contemplated alife of luxury,
much less one of conspicuous position
before the country. She is as unique
in her way as her brother is in his,
though they are apparently not at all
alike in general character, nor does she
physically resemble him. She is of
medium stature and build, with ashapely
and highly intellectual face. She is
good-looking, but not pretty. She
dresses neatly, but plainly, and wears
few ornaments. She has for long
time been lecturer by profession, her
specially being educational subjects,
and her audiences usually the pupils of
just lectured at the Elmira Seminary on
Joan of Arc She speaks several
languages, is exceptionally well in
formed in history and the arts, and has
that degree of confidence in herself and
the knowledge she possesses to be able
to firmly take the lead in conversation,
and to hold it against the bright men
and women who have come in contact
with her. Yet in some respects she is
notably shy, and always so modest and
amiable as to win friends easily and
quickly. Why, she's perfect die
tionary,' said Ex-Governor Cornell,
when he returned from a visit to Miss
Cleveland yesterday. She's one of the
brightest women ever met And do
you know remarked the ex-governor's
vivacious wife, she seemed inclined
to avoid promiscuous society in Wash
ington. told her on no account to do
so. l informed her what nice people she
would meet, how charming the social
atmosphere is there, if one only chooses
ones own circle among the refined
families; and / also assured her that
she need not be doubtful about her
ability to entertain, though / omitted
the truth that there are few women
there so well fitted to reign in the White
House as she.' There seems to be no
doubt that Miss Cleveland's administra-
ton will not lack distinctive qualities,
for she is strong-minded woman, ac-
customed to instruct members of her
sex, and with firmly-grounded notions
generally.
