 four In Fear of Assassination.
 LONDON, Jan. 6-It is announced that after the evictions at FaIcarragh are con- pleted the eviction brigades will turn their attention to the neighboring estates of Har- pur Nixon and Mrs Oakley both of which are In Father McFadden's parish The evic- tons from the estate of the Draper's com pany will begin on Wednesday. Enormous pressure Is being brought here to compel the purchase of this estate under the Ashbourne act, but the movement is being just as stoutly resisted Lord Clanricarde intends 10 renew the evictions from his estate at as early day as possible. The evictors, with the assistance of the magistrates, have re- sorted to clever trick to effect an entrance into oarricaded houses The tenants occupy Ing these houses are summoned to give evi- dence in star chamber proceedings IT they obey the summons they are kept waiting tho whole day before being permitted to testify. If they refuse to give evidence they are imprisoned, so that in either case they are absent from their homes when the oaiifs arrive. MT. Balfour has given in- structions that the coercion act must be carried out with the utmost vigor, and his orders are being literally obeyed. It isex- pected that the military will be called upon to use their rifles in the endsavor to eject the Clanricarde tenants, as all of the houses on that estate arc strongly barricaded and the occupants armed.
 Tho assertion that the Dublin Invincibles will kill Balfour If they have an opportunity to do so appears to be based upon something more tangible than mere idle rumor. and 1t Is generally believed to be true At any rate the Irish secretary believes it, and has taken extraordinary precautions against the possibility of assassination.

 SEWERS.
 The very much needed interceptinS sew CT for the removal of sewerage from Mad river has been completed during the past year, and several other sewers have been built, for the year about 9,35O feet. Aside from the ordinary run of lateral sewers there will probably be nothing of special importance in the line of sewers for the coming year. The present outlet of the Benedict street sewer should be extended to point about 100 feet below Burnham street bridge as recommended by the engi- neer, ill order to have the sewerage dis charge into deep water. And the Bank street outlet in Brooklyn should be carried down to tho Naugatuck river as soon as proposed changes of grade crossings and new streets are carried out.

"Old Reliable Conductors Life. Special
Train. st. Louis to San Francisco"

faith of man. Through the changing pro-
cessess of thought religion has not departed
from the world, nor has mans need OF the
comfort 1t supplies in any measure abated.
A great consolation comes, however, ss
God is no longer seen as az
" Ebbing tide that left
Srewn with dead miracles those eldest shores"
But is felt as present yet in living miracles
and through access of moral power. 1t IS
not only amid the valleys of Gslilee that
the benediction of a pule and exalted
manhood can be felt in strength of moral
excellence it is not only upon an AEGEAN
island that the clouds and colors OF the
sunset can build the fabric OF the New
Jerusalem to the eye of faith.
1t only remains for US to determine
what the church may yet become to US;
whether it shall simply be temple dedi-
Gated to formal worship or house in
stinct with the presence of the living God,
calling forth in its service passion and an
enthusiasm that no altered conceptions of
the foundations of belief need to drive
from the world. Happy for Us if the
church can again be to US as it was to
those who lived in the times of more
jealous but less instructed faith; happy for
US if we could be endowed with the
mighty spiritual strength of those to whom
the church became a possession richer
than Golconda and the treasures OF the
earth,'"
