the great fact that at last the long northern
 winter is gone. The flight of the Canadian
 wild goose is continental. It sweeps from
 the bayous and sounds of the far South to
 the desolate shores of the icy Arctic seas.
 These large birds of the black head, neck and feet, whose wild gurgling cries, coming down confusedly from the upper air, seem to mix and blend with the wind and the cloud in which they move, are on their way perhaps from the Everglades of Southern Florida; nor will they make much delay till they reach the far northern wastes where they breed. It would seem that their win ters are passed in brighter and pleasanter weather than their summers; but the North is their true habitat There they rear their
 broods and there they probably best enjoy life, for they spend at least seven of the years twelve months shores too chill and grim for human kind, albeit there the ice will melt and there the sun shine for while all night. Just at present they must find it an inhospitable region. From the north northward indefinitely the rocks are still deep in snow and ice, and the weather is cold. But in the North great changes are effected rapidly as the sun mounts higher. Even in Lake Champlain the ice is said to be still two or three feet tlfick,- but in that curious lake, as in some other northern wat CTS, the ice, when it goes, disappears sudden ly. It may show at sunset lake surface of miles on miles of solid looking ice-and the next morning not bit of ice is to be seen! But ice or no ice, it is all one to the wild geese. They are sure of their own pastures and still waters-albeit the former may not be green nor the latter very still; but the grim rocks in the chill seas along upper Lab rador, Baffn's Bay, and Smiths Sound are the places that they are after. May it also be that they go still further and find a milder cline surrounding the earth's northern pole!

ent and hearty supporter of the new labor movement. But it sees that things are not as they should be, and it gives this good advice: The friends of organized labor should remember two things: First, that a constant repetition of strikes and boycotts for petty grievances will surely and thorough ly undermine public sentiment and bring or ganized labor into disrepute. The public do not know, what is the fact, that the Knights of Labor assemblies very rarely authorize strikes and boycotts. But all strikes and boycotts are attributed to the Knights of Labor. It behooves the Knights of Labor then to use their influence in their trade unions to put stop to strikes and boycotts and to bring about condition of discipline which will provide that no strike or boycott shall be authorized except to overthrow rank in justice, and only then when all attempts at arbitration have failed.

THE DAWN OF PEACE.

Brother Beecher Sees a New Era in the World of Religion. Extract From Recent Chicago Sermon.l was overrun with sense of joy when at Indianapolis, my former home, found that Monday morning all the pastors in town were accustomed to meet socially together from each others house to each others house, and there sat three Episcopalians; and there sat a Campbellite Baptist, called a Unitarian Baptist by some; and there was Baptist and Methodist and Congregational minis ter; and I looked at them and they all look ed good. I couldn't tell one from the other by the way they looked. They all seemed to be happy. They were in brotherhood. Well, if twenty-five clergymen from differ ent denominations can live together in peace, why cannot 2,500 congregationss What we want is Christ, not philosophy, not ordi- nance, not organizations. These have their functions. But what we want is that spirit whereby Christ is brought from heaven to this world, Chist in you the hope of glory.
 And now see how God in his providence is widening, widening the royal way. We are coming together, and therefore meet strange bed-fellows; and that time has passed on, and then God brought together in a
 
 ferent sects, denominations and habitudes, but it wore off lreat deal of Tepulsion. Then comes the great temperance reforma- ton. Men of all sides are at work now to- sether. Then came these great summer meetings and Chautauqua assemblies, and the various others by which the different de- nominations spent two or three weeks togeth- CT and love one another and get attached to each other-all sorts of denominations-un til at last there has come to be a state of things in the church in which the old afr native maxim can be Used:
 ''See how these Christians love one another!"
 'Oh for the ages gone back; for a thou sand years or more the maxim has been:
 ''I know they are Christians, because they quarrel so." Iaughter.)
 But the time is coming, the summer is coming already, though the winter holds te- nacious and the March winds are rude and boisterous. The birds have come, the pro- phets of the summer. Already the flowers are breaking ground, the buds are bursting out the twigs are assuming the summer color. March nay resist and April may be Iukewarm, but May and June are knocking at our doors and the summer is coming. All over the world it is coming, and Christ will cease soon all the travail of his soul and be satisfied. It is for you and for me not so much to theorize and preach as to be like Christ; and when you are like Christ nobody can hate you; and when large assemblies like this are like Christ no infidel can refuse his faith. The reality of Christ is beautiful, winning and melting in these latter years of the worlds age; only what we want is more Christ among his followers.

ELECTRICITY Vs. GAS.

ELECTRICITY VS. GAS.
 Dr. N. H. Schilling has made report to the directors of the gas company at Munich regarding the present condition of electric lighting. Much of what he says is cheering to these interested in gas companies and in- teresting to those who are not
 Dr. Schilling presents the case against cleo tricity forcibly. He denies that the electric light is a safeguard against fire and quotes several instances in support of his denial. He claims that in the color and steadiness of the light electricity has no advantages over gas, and that the former is the worse for the eyes; and he denies that the electric light works with satisfactory regularity or that in public halls the air is improved by it's use. But the chief obstacle to the more extensive adoption of electric lighting is it's cost. In Dr. Schilling's opinion it will never SUD- plant gas. He says: The electric light is no enemy to gas lighting, but both can and will exist peaceably together. The electric light will, and ought to, obtain the extension which it deserves by it's nature; but gas will remain in the future, as it always has been, the uni versal means of illumination, and, as far as the electric light helps to increase the gen eral wish for light, gas light will only be aided by it. What must be fought against is the undue laudation, the excitement brought forth by unhealthy speculation, which puffs itself up unduly and injuriously to others. It is not enough that, every time one of it's lamps is set up, the event is de- scribed as step in progress, and in general every little occurrence in the realm of cleo tricity is described in the most glowing colors; nay, circumstances are dis6gured and misrepresented, and gas lighting is described as a defective, unbea1abls method of illumi- nation, injurious to health-and all this in order to glorify the sanitary advantages of the electric light.
 It looked at one time to uneasy holders of 'tgas stocks'' as if the electric light would greatly diminish or take away entirely their profits. But nobody is selling gas stocks now on account of the electric light.

me the other afternoen-always carry it with me in case of an emergency-and as I gazed about my eye was attracted by some inemen adjusting some telegraph wire not far off. There were five wires and a number of men at work at different points. The bodies of the men were black spots against the white sky and the five wires showed very clearly. The whole thing had the appearance of an enormous clef of 8 musical score, the men being the notes.
 "What did I do? you ask. Such an op- portunity was not to be missed. I took an instantaneous picture of the thing as it stood. I'm no musician myself, but when my first proof was finished I took it to a friend who performs on piano. He placed the photograph on the music rack and looked at it for a second.

 The town of Silverton, New South Wales, has grown as fast as some of tho towns in the western part of this country grow. Two years ago the place on which it stands was an uninhabited desert. Now it is large town with handsome streets, seven hotels, three banks, two breweries, several gorgeous drinking saloons, half dozen clubs and a live newspaper.
 The Providence Journal puts it plainly when it says: The To sic of all this business, and it's inevitable tendency, is the dem of these secret societies to rule the business of the country, to dictate to everybody what shall or shall not be done in the mill, the store, the field, the shop and the house which once was thought to be ones castle.
