thump, thump. At 3 o'clock in the
from prov to stern, and the skylights
gave way! The deluge rushed in, and
We felt that one or two more waves like
that must swamp us forever. AS the
water rolled back and forward in the
cabins, and dashed against the wall, it
sprang half way up to the ceiling. Rush
ing through the skylights as it came in
with such terrific roar, there went up
from the cabin a shrek of horror which
pray God l may never hear again. I
have dreamed the whole scene over
again, but God has mercifully kept me
from hearing that one cry. Into it
seemed to be compressed the agony of ex-
pected shipwreck. 1t seemed to say: Il
shall never get home again! Ny chill
dren shall be orphaned, and nv wife
shall be widowed, am launching now
into eternityi In two minutes I shall
meet my God!"
There was about five hundred and fifty
passengers in the steerage, and as the
water rushed in and touched the furn-
aces, and began violently to hiss, the
poor creatures in the steerage imag-
med that the boilers we're giving way.
Those passengers writhed in the water
and in the mud, some praying, some
crying, all terrified. They made rush
for the deck. An officer stood on deck
and beat them back with blow after
blow. 1t was necessary. They would
not have stood an instant on the deck.
Oh! how they begged to get out of the
hold of the ship! One woman, with q
child in her arms, rushed up and caught
hold of one of the officers and cried:
DO let me out! will help you! Do
let me out! cannot die here!' Some
got down and prayed to the Virgin
Mary, saying: 20 blessed mother! keep
u.s." Some stood with white lips and
fixed gaze, silent in their terror. Some
wrung their hands and cried out: %
Codi whatshall do? What shall do?'
The time came when the crew could no
longer stay on deck, and the cry of the
officers was: Below all hands below!"

while they betook themselves to some
othern new conner. They who took Paul
out of Fair Haven will be of no use to
him when he gets into the breakers of
Melita.
Iremark again. as a lesson learned
from the text, that il is dangerous to re-
fuse the counsel of competent advisers.
Paul told them not to 60 out with the
ship. They thought he knew nothing
about it. They said: "He is only a
minister" They went, and the ship was
destroyed. There are great many peo-
pie now who say of ministers: ''They
know nothing about the world. They
cannot talk to us!" All! my friends, it
is not necessary to have the Asiatic
cholera before you can give it medical
treatment in others. 1t is not necessary
to have your own arm broken before YOU
can know how to splinter a fracture.
And We who stand in the pulpit and in
the Office of a Christian teacher, know
that there are certain styles of belief
and certain kinds of behavior that will
lead to destruction as certainly as Paul
knew that if the ship went out of Fair
Haven it would go to destruction. '.Re-
joice, o young man. in thy youth; and
let thy heart cheer thee in the DAYS of
thy youth; but know thou that for all
these things God will bring thee into
judgment" We may not know much, but
we know that.
Young people refuse the advice of
parents. They say: Father is over
suspicious, and mother is getting old. "
But these parents have been on the sea

sleep, and during their voyage have

Liouor Ljcepses in Oakland.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 14th.-The cues
ton of high license is attracting general
attention in Oakland at the present time.
1t was made an issue in the recent election.
Certain candidates for the Council were op-
posed by the liquor men and made their
fight On the high license question. Six of
those opposed by the saloon men were
elected, giving the high license party
majority In the Council. The Councilman
who were opposed by the saloon men nat

introduced increasing the liquor IL

from the pulpit and lecture platform and

have been obliged, for the time at least, to

WALLA WALLA. April 14th.-On Friday
night burglary took place at the store of
Holmes Il Hamlin of Prescott. and a dis
patch was sent for Sheriff Mcfarland. He
tracked the burglars about five miles down
the Touchet river, coming to the town at
nighttali Saturday. In the morning Con-
stable Frank Morse went out and took I'D
the trail, tracking them to the mouth of
the river, where the Sheriff was met.
Both were mounted and started for Wal
lula fifteen miles off, and about half way
saw two men toward the Walla Walla
river, but they were in a location where
they would have good advantage if they
wanted to fight, SO the Sheriff and Morse
made detour, apparently to look at some
cattle, until the criminals got to better
place for attack, which they soon did, and,
arriving at distance of fifteen feet, orders
were given by the Sheriff, Throw up your
hands" Immediately covering the men.
who were named Thomas Williams and
Dan Murphy.

and fired at Morse, causing both the horses
to rear and swing around the Sheriff and
Morse. As soon as they could get their
horses to face around both shot at the men,
w illldius lHlllDS CcdU. murphy Sllll Kept
firing, but did not hit either of the men,
but two bullets entered the horse of the
Sheriff. Murphy then jumped down the
bank and started to run, but after couple
shots were fired at him he threw down hrs
pistol and surrendered. The dead man was
taken to Touchet station and the Coroner
summoned by telegraph. The inquest was
held and verdict rendered of justifiable
homicide. The prisoner was brought to
