Gordon. nrarery and Gentlenes..

His courage was an instinct, fortified
by faith in God and in future life. This
life had no intense pleasures for him,
and he shrank from the applause of men.
He did whatever came 10 his hand with
all the loyalty of an English gentleman,
and especially with the earnestness and
zeal Of a servant Of Christ. The world
was TO him sort of prison, beyond the
precincts OF which lay that New Jerusa-
lem from which his waking thoughts,
and very dreams even, never wandered.
While in this mundane prison he tried
TO do Gods bidding with that unbounded
sympathy for the sufferings Of all animal
creation that was one Of his most re-
markable characteristics. And yet he
had absolutely no regard for human life.
To die, or TO be killed, or to kill, was as
natural, as much a matter of course to
him, as TO be born. He cared nothing
for his own life, and could not under
stand why others should set any value
upon theirs.
Il always struck me when conversing
with him that he was, more than any
man ever knew well, made upof oppo-
site qualities. The God whom he wor-
SHIPPED was at one time the sternly just God
described in the Old Testament; at an
other, he was the God Of love revealed to
us by Christ. Not that these two con-
ceptions contradict each other; rather il
each the complement of the other; but
yet the union Of such widely different
qualities which seems TO us natural.
necessary even in God, strikes us as
strange IN a man. And SO the union in
Gordon Of stern severity and exceeding
gentleness always seemed TO me TO be ex-
traordinary. Ii was not that Gordon
was simply brave in action, but that
danger had actually and positively for
him nothing terrible about il. There is
curious page in his Khartoum diary
where he discusses the question OF
whether he should or should not allow
the Mahdi TO take him alive. Death 10
him was really the open door TO new
life, and whether he passed through IL
In action or under any other circunf.
stances was all the same. Death to him
was merely a release from all the paltri-
ness Of human life. When shall we 900

AGAINST THE MILLS BILL.
Resolutions Adopted by the Wool Men OF
Montana

Mr.. Clark and other democratic
speakers are daily giving their ell

places wool upon the free list. Iu con-
trsst 10 their assertions In this respect,
read the following resolutions which
were adopted last July at the regular
meeting of the Montana Wool Grow.

Whereas, The platform Of the demo
cratic party endorses the message o.
the president declaring in favor of re-
moving all duties an woodland
Whereas, The platform OF the repub

that the duties on wool shall b,
adjusted ard maintained SO Is Il

Whereas, Three-fourths Of the ex-
pepse OF sheep husbandry is paid ouI

Whereas, The only way sheep can

perience great privations in the proper

Orleans TO st. Louis took place, the in
terest was intense, and on the morning
the steamboats, were expected in the
leyee was thronged with people anxious
70 see the result. IL was about noon
when the Lee blew a blast as she passed
Carondelet, and those who had bet their
money on this boat, knowing the whistle
was that Of their favorite, set up a shout.
Many bets which had been made were
paid even before the victorious steamer
came in sight, so positive were all that
she was the winn T, The reason every
one was SO positive that it was the Lee
WAS that the Natchez had whistle to-
tally unlike that Of any other steamer on
the river. 1t produced warbling sound
which was rather musical. This sound
was brought about by suspending a ball
in the cylinder.
The whistles Of the boats were even
used as a means of communication be-
tween pilots who had a code of signals.
As their boats passed on the river they
would exchange greetings in this way,
and some of them ''hsd it down so fine,"
70 use common expression, as to be able
TO convey almost any information they
desired. Frequently the passengers would
be awakened at night by the most un-
common shrill sounds, ard in great fear
would inquire whether there had been a
collision, and would be ccmforted by the
assurance that IL was ''tnly the pilots
talking to each other"
The whistles were all n, de in exactly
the same way, but owing u their differ
ence in size or 10 the metal they produced
different sounds, the difference, however,
only being distinguishable u the prac-
ticed ear. The first real novelty was in
troduced by William Mcclellan, the pres
ent boiler inspector. He imported a
newly fashioned whistle from Philadel-
phia and put it on the Rescue, harbor
boat. This produced sound similar to
the howls Of wild animals, and by con-
trast was dubbed "the mocking bird. +"
The first morning it was used it caused
quite a sensation in the city. The pilot
of the Rescue kept blowing it at a furi-
Gus rate, as the boat went up and down
the harbor, and hundreds Of people mis-
taking the blowing for the howls of wild
animals rushed down to see what it all
meant. The same whistle is vet used on
the tug George Rhea.
The decline Of the river traffic has
naturally caused decline in the general
interest that was once taken in the river,
and all things appertaining to it, and
there are very few now excepting expert
enced river men who can tel the whistle
of single boat that enters the harbor.
The Anchor line boats are known by the
fact that on entering the harbor the pilot
always signals their approach by one
long, two short and long blow, but
which one of the boats of this line is ap-
preaching would be a mystery, unless
seen, to nearly everybody. None Of the
other lines of boats owned by individuals
have any regular method of announcing
their coming. The science Of steamboat
whistling is fast declining.-St. Louis
Post-Dispatch.

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO, March 24-At the opening on
'Change today there was every INDICATION
from the temper OF the crowd that sui
lower prices would he reached by the trad
ing IN grains and provisions In tact,
wheat opened one point lower than 1t had
touched. May being quoted at dG7sc. Ihe
wheat market was at the mercy OF the
manipulators at the start, but after the
opening it was left TO itself for some time,
and MAY advanced to 76Ac. Weakness re-
turned later with renewed selling by the
professionals and the price of May was
kept between 76llc and 76l%c, the greater
mart of the time until the close, which was
at the latter figure.
After a somewhat irregular action the
corn market closed 4 to &c. better than
last nights prices, and nc. lower than
the price one week ago. The receipts here
this morning were less than expected, and
the additional trouble on the burlington
led to the belief that receipts would be
still lighter for a time. The first action OF
the market was downward however, and
continued pounding until May went from
49L6a50c to 4g3L@49%[c. Then ii rallied to
5O3lc, the best point Of the day, and closed
at Soc
Oats sold at or near last nights prices,
closing shade firmer and higher. May
sold at 30l4@3015c, and closed at 3o36c.

lower than at any previous time in months.

were the highest and closing almost at the
