Our Influence.

This world is a chain, strongly and
~curiously wrought, in which the past is
closely linked with the present, the pres
ent with the future the generations of
the past join hands with those of the
present, the generations Of the present
with those Of the invisible future the
lives long dead live after them, and their
influences are wide and far-reaching.
franklin often attributed his life Of use
fulness 10 the Essays to do Good
which grew out OF Cotton Mather's life
experiences, and we can trace Luther's
inspirations to his perusal Of the " Life of
John Huss.'
Not only do these great mems lives
live after them. but the lives Of all Of Us,
be we rich or poor, king or peasa nj, will
in some way affect the future.
Smiles says, "There is something "
full and solemn in the thought that
there is no act nor thought in the life of
a human being but carries with it a train
of consequences, the end Of which we
never trace. II we fully realized the
meaning Of these words, how much more
carefully would we guard our actions, our
thoughts, our words.
And not only viii the future be affect
ed by u lives, We live also for the pres
emit We may be in the most humble
walk fife, in the most secluded posi-
ton. vet there are none Of Us but will
come in contact with some one. some
where, over whom we exert some in
~fluence. How careful, how guarded we
should then be that our lives be not
stumbling blocks 10 others, that our deeds
be not such as will injure our %fellow-nen.
And have YOU ever thought what a
weight our words carry with them2
How an unkind or thoughtless word NAV
sink a fellow mortal in despair, and how
a kind and encouraging word might road
him on to greater efforts and higher re-
solves2
Many a young man who, when first
erred, was pushed down the mn by the
thrusts Of those vino one pretended to
be his friends, and, and may be we're the
indirect cause Of his fall. How much
more noble and Christlike would il be
"a assist those stumbling over the rough
places. and lift the fallen from the dast,
instead Of irampling on them when they
are down.
Since in this world Of Oors, no man
lives 10 himself, and nothing is lost, let
US live such lives as viii be a help to
those around US: let Us live such lives
that, when our eathly career Is ended, we
will leave behind Us a legacy, not ofgreat
wealth or fame, but n legacy, Of such
deeds as will live and bear fruit to the
honora and glory ofour Father in Heaven.

the counter chute, on the inside of The slope,
which was abandoned over a year ago was
iguited yesterday. It was immpossible to
get close to the fire on account Of the bad air
and heat, and lines Of hose were found use
less. 1t was decided to-day to adopt the
plan of drowning out the mine, and to this
end 4 stream Of water known as Black creek
was turned into the workings. Should this
be successful the fire will not spread 10 the
adjoining working Of that section, which
are all connected and honeyeomb the entire
district. II is impossible to get within half
a mile ofthe fire on the inside Of the slope,
and the water running from the fire at that
distance is a point in boiling temperature.
The colliery gave employment to $50 men
and boys, all of whom are now idle.

of A~shtabula. o., have added a large lot OF
new machinery TO their works and are run
ming night and day on orders for their i'm

fsctureIs that a gigantic scheme to pur-
chase the Pittsburgh poor farm and use

mill was in contemplation by several well
Known iron m?n of Pittsburgh.
Edward McHugh, general manager Of
the Powell furnaces at Saxton, Pa, has re-
ceived orders to put the works in operation
at once. The works were closed on Janu-
airy 1, owing to the refusal Of the men 10
accept a reduction of their wages Of 10 per
cent. The employees will go 10 work at the
reduction, with the promise Of a raise in
two months.
The Woodward, Alabama, Iron Co. are

will be blown in as soon as their new coal
