The Resurrection Flower.

Travellers in Egypt, who profess to
have seen the genuine resurrection flow.
ers, describe it as little ball hanging on
its fragile stem, and resembling both in
color and shape shrunken poppy head.
Sleeping, but not dead, the flower is
aroused by being for an instant immersed
in water, and then supported in an
upright position. Soon the upper fibres
begin to stir. Slowly, yet visible, they
unfold, until, with petals thrown back in
equidistant order, it assumes the appear.
auce of beautifully radiated, starry
flower, not unlike some of the asters in
form. Resting moment, it suddenly, as
though inspired by some new impulse,
throws its very heart to the daylight,
curving back its petals further still, and
disclosing beauties undreamed of even in
, the lovelinesa Of it's first awakening.
Soon the aspect of the flower changes.
As though over the wellspring of its
eternal life hangs some ruthless power
forcing it back into darkness, before an
hour has passed its newly found vigor is
fading away. The pulsing light at its
heart grows fainter and fainter-slowly
the petals raise themselves, to drop wea.
rily side by side upon its bosom-and
finally, its beauty vanished, its strength
exhausted, it hangs heavy and brown
upon its stem, waiting for the touch that
alone can waken it again.
The story of the resurrection flower, as
given in 1856 by the late DR.. Deck, the
naturalist is as follows:
"While travelling on professional
tour in Upper Egypt eight years before,
engaged in exploring for some lost emer.
aid and copper mines, he CHANGED to rem
der medical service to an Arab attached
to his party. In gratitude the child of
the desert formally presented to him this
now.called resurrection aower,' at the
same time epjoiniug him never to part
with it. Like the tabled gift of the
Egyptian, it was supposed to have magic
in the web of it,"
The Doctor was solemnly assured by
the Arab and others of his race that it
had been taken ten years before from the
breast of an Egyptian mummy, high
priestess, and vas deemed a great variety (;
that it would never decay if properly
cared for; that its possession through life
would tend to revive hope in adversely.
For years the doctor carried his treas
ure with him everywhere, prizing it for
its intrinsic qualities, and invariably
awakening the deepest interest whenever
he chanced to display its wondrous pow.
ers. During the remainder Of his life,
it is claimed, he caused the flower to
open many times, without causing any
diminution of its marvellous property or
any injury whatever to it.

Deserved Tribute to the Jews.

z =
Mayor Hewitt unexpectedly popped in
at the fourteenth anniversary of the
Young Mems Hebrew Association, at
Chickering Hall, last night, aud was the
principal speaker. The Mayor said:
"I came here because felt it to be my
duty to lend whatever countenance I
could to every movement which tends
toward the growth of morality and the
spreading Of religion, virtue and educa-
tion. Tonight I have heard of the
progress of the New Jerusalem, as I have
known before ofthe sufferings of the chill.
dren of God, until to-day the Jew and
Christian stand before the law equal in
right. All that is noble, all that is
admirable, all that is human, finds its
wellspring in the Jewish faith, and so fits

ty. The Jews are good citizens, preach
ing what they practice, who don't come
down to the city hall and ask for Offices.
They build their own charities, and do
not fill the prisons and aims houses, but
send their children to the public schools,
where they are taught to be American
citizens, and do not quarrel over ques.
tions of religion.
ST am told the Jews are getting rich.
I am glad of it. Riches will never do
any harm in the hands of honest labor,
nor in the hands of those who believe in
the Ten Commandments. The Jewish
people now present a spectacle such as
has never been seen since the days of
David, and you ought to be satisfied with
New York and love it, because it was the
first place in the New World where no
distinction was made between Jews and
Christians.-New York Sun, April 19.

A. Newberry Mystery.

There has been quite 8 sensation on
Ridge road for some time, at the resi-
dence of MI. ?. L. Wise. / have inves-
tigated the matter, and the information
1 have received is as follows: On Tuesday
evening, March the 29th, Mr.. Wise
heard noise coming from the northwest
similar to the noise that precedes an
earthquake. Just after the noise ceased
the building began to rock. The shock
was so severe that it threw down portion
of the chimney and stove.piping and
shook pots off the stove; in fact, every.
thing was shaken up pretty generally.
After the shock was over Mr.. Wise went
down to his father,in.law's, MIR. n.
Baird, distant not more than hundred
yards, to see what damage was done down
there. To his surprise Mr.. Baird knew
nothing of it.
On the night following Mr.. Wise and
family were absent from home.. About
dusk Mr.. Baird heard noise in the
direction of Mr.. Wise's house and would
have gone up to see what it was if his
wife had not become so much frig ghten-
ed.
On Sabbath evening following Mrs.
Abram Long, a neighbor, had come over
to visit Mrs. Wise. About supper time,
without moments warning, something
began popping about over the floor with
a noise similar to 6recrackers, and scent
like sulphur or burnt powder was noticed.
They all became go much frightened that
they went over to Mr.. Longs and spent
the night. On Monday morning Dir.
Wise returned home-at which time he
made preparations to move and before he
could get away the same thing com.
menced it's devilment again. We know
Mr.. Wise not to be very excitable man I;
but he says this was too much for him,
and he vacated the house at once.
I have made several inquiries since,
but there have been no further distur-
Dances reported. If it goes to misbe
having in any such way again will 60
over and try to bring it under my own
observation and give full account.
Now the question comes in, what was
the nature of the disturbance? Is it a
ghost or spirit? We have no Bible
authority for ghost, and spirits don't
work in any such way. 1t used to be
very common, especially among our
good old Dutch people, to teach of ghosts,
witches, spooks, spirits and devils, and
the children who grew up then were 80
superstitious they often made imaginary
ghosts and became much frightened over
them. 1t is not only wrong, but sinful,
to teach children any such notions.
I have always thought that l was as
liable to see ghost as anybody else, but
I have lived in the world thirty.two
years, and have never seen anything to
lead me to believe in any such things

- The world is indebted to a Georgian
for steam navigation. across the Atlantic.
In 1913 Captain Moses Rogers, of savan.
nah, suggested to the merchants of that
city the idea of building a steamship to
run between. Savannah and Liverpool.
A ship was bought and fitted up and
named the Savannah. In April, 1919, it
made the trial trip from New York to
Savannah in seven days, and was visited
by President Monroe, who was then on
southern tour. In May she sailed for
Liverpool, where she arrived in twenty.
one days, creating sensation. The sa-
vannah was chased a whole day off the
coast of Ireland by British revenue cut.
ter, which mistook her for ship on fire.
After this trip steam navigation across
the Atlantic was abandoned for years on
account of the expense. The fact, how.
ever, remains that Georgia took the lead
in ocean steam navigation.
This from the Providence Journal,
shows what the north thinks of southern
development: "As might be expected,
the greater part of the new railroad mile.
age of this year lies in the southern
States, where great industrial develop.
ment is going on, and where as yet there
has been no such over. construction Of
railroads as in some other districts. The
field there is an inviting one, and is
attracting no small amount of capital,
and new undertakings will undoubtedly
continue during the current year. Of
the whole 1895 miles constructed during
the first quarter of the year in this coun.
try, 555 miles is found in the. south.
Georgia leads all other States with 113
miles, and Texas comes next with 112
miles,"

FELTON'S WARNING.
A Lively Debate in the House over the
Mills Bill.

Mills Bill.
WASHINGTON, June 27th.-In tine House
to-day, when the Mills bill was called up,
Judge Kelley got the floor and deprecated
arguing the tariff bill till the end of Sep
tember, and in lieu offered proposition to
lay aside the Mills bill till the next session
of Congress, when the people would have
decided by their votes whether the bill was
best for the interests of the people.
Mills replied that he would submit to no
such proposition.
Reed then said that the minority in the
House did not propose to submit to dicta-
ton as to the exact length of the time the
bill should be discussed. They wanted a
fair chance at the bill and intended to
have it.
Breckenridge offered resolution to have
the Ways and Means Committee limit the
debate, but it was objected to-
The tariff bill was then taken up

YOU will kill an industry of California.
The profit now is just barely sufficient to

Remove the tariff and this market will be
flooded with quicksilver from the mines of
Austria and Spain, and it will drive the
American products out of the market and
they will be compelled to shut down.
