"YE HAVE WEARlEp THE LORD
Mnl. II: II.

From the fruitful valleys of pr0Haise,
From goodly Canaan's shore,
Are your hearts turning backwshU to Egyp'
Would you wear the yoke once moreF
Do We say: 1t is vain that we servaHim,
II useless to follow His laws,
Inasmuch rs the wicked are %prospered
And the just O'erthrown without cause?
Ye have wearied the Lord, o We faithlessl, /.
VI have ounde the Saviour anewr
Ye have treated the Master eternal
AS If He were servant to you
O sad that the seeker of lost ones
/, Should find cen His children astray;
That the patient Rcdeemcr of sinners
Finds His own flock turned from the Way.
If, mid the .shcaves to be garnered,
You have been taking our rest,
Or If, on the Masters altar,
Ye have offered less than your best;
Ii, in His appointed service,
Ye have borne IN unwilling part,
Ye have wcaried the Lord, Oye'Christians!
Ye have grieved His loving heart!
o rob not the Lord of His treasures
Nor the service which is His right,
For the gifts OF His loving children
Are precious i'll His sight.
But serve Him with love ~unboundcd.
And your names shall be given a place
In the book of gracious remembrance
That is kept before His face.

There's ALWAYS a GOOD many mr.,

get in, says a United States recruiting
officer in Philadelphia. You'd be sur.
Pr'sed, too, to see what respectable
looking men come here every day to be
examined. Many of them have fami-
lies, but have been out of work for q
good while and don't see any prospect
OF getting a job. l can tell When
there's a strike, IL when the mills shut

In Parisw when q man oets q divorce

In Paris when a man gets a divorce
from his wife it is the fashion 10 cele-
brate the affair by a dinner, ball or
some sort of festival. In America when
a MAT gets a divorce, after he has set
tied with the lawyers, he has to hump
himself to get money enough to buy
bread, and the chances are that he will
u a few lunch routes for some time
to come. An American divorce is no
picnic, and after q man has been
obliged to support or two grass
widows for a couple Of years life ceases
to have any charms for him, and he is
ready to die.-PccA's San.

A DEsPERArE CONpICr.


He Attempts to Escape from Prison Hut Il
shot and Captured.
The story of startling scene which oc-
CURED in the convict camp near Atlanta, Ga,
Thursday night, has just been let out by the
authorities. There were rs men in the gang,
among whom was J. II. McSwain, u white
man, who was sent TO prison from TatnalI
county in May, 1882 He was found guilty
of nanslaughter, and sentenced TO Is years
in the penitentiary. lie has been trouble
some ever since, and the guards have
kept close watch upon hIm. On
account OF his dangerous character he was
double shackled, his legs chained together
and bound by chains to his arms. The con-
victs were securely housed in stOckade,
which is on Old Peach Tree street. and all of
them went to their rest apparently as peace
fui as lambs. One OF them however, did
not use night hours for sleep. This was
McSwain. He managed to secrete an old
case knife in his clothing. with this he
began work vigorously on his shackles soon
after dark. Before night was over no had
cut loose the steel bands that hampered
,he use OF his arms and legs. Still
ade McSwain knew that every morning
at o'clock the guard came to call the convict
COOK who prepares breakfast for his fellows.
he stationed himself near the door aud
patiently waited until at length one-armed
guard named Leonard approached. He
opened the door and called the cook by name.
instantly McSwain rushed upon the door,
hurled it open, and dashed past Leonard like
wild man. The guard was dazed at first
but in an instant recovered hi senses and
called to the flying convict to halt He sped
on and was fast making his escape. A shot
gun loaded with buckshot was within a few
feet of Leonard, but one-armed man could
not handle such o weapon to advantage.
Leonard drew his revolver and fired. The
ball entered the back of the fugitive, but
passed around his ribs and lodged over
his breast bone Leonard fired twice
again. One OF these shots made
flesh wound i'm McSwain's right side and
the other merely grazed him. All the time
Leonard was running after the convict as
fast as he could. McSwain had a consdera-
BILE lead and it was hardly daybreak, but the
guard managed to hit him every time he
hred. His fourth and final shot lodged i'm
the muscles of the convict's left arm. BY
this time Leonard had gained on him and
the convict turned like tiger at bay upon
his pursuer He stopped to find a rock with
which to assail Leonard. When he halted
Leonard closed upon him and, leveling his
pistol at his head, ordered him to surrender
McSwain had no desire to test Leonard's
Workmanship at close range, and, after sui
len glare at his captor, gave in. He was car
ried, bleeding, back to the stockade.
