MILLIONS ARE NEEDED.


It Is Said that $4,000. 900 VIII Ds
Required to Clear the Ground NJ
Jamestown.
It is now seen that IL will cost Q
vast sum to carry on the work there.
The contractors estimate that 81, 000,-
600 will be required to renovate the
town and put it in a good and healthy
condition. About 100000 has a.
ready been contributed by charity.
Gov. Beaver decided that 1t would
be useless to call an extra session OF
the legislature and thought sufficient
money could be raised in other ways.
He said there were 200 men who
would become responsible for 5000
each; that he would give his bond to
the state treasure for $1,000, 900, with
those 200 men as bondsmen, aud the
state treasurer would then pay out the
$1.O00,000 for the necessary work.
When the legislature met the money
withdrawn from the treasury could BE-
appropriated. He said that the money
already subscribed should be used en-
tirely for the relief of the sufferers and
the money from tho state treasurer be
used for restoring the vicinity to its
condition before the flood. All debts
already contracted for the removal OF
debris would be paid, but all money
paid out for this purpose from the re-
lief fund would be refunded, so that
every cent subscribed for the the re-
lief of the stricken people should DO
used for that purpose alone.
The governor has $25O,000 In his
hands now for the relief fund. A COM
mittee OF seven well-known men OF
the state will be appointed to distrib-
ute the relief fund and tho present re-
lief committee is to continue the work
till the commission is appointed. After
the commission is appointed the future
operations of the Pittsburg relief COM
mittee will be directed by it.
An attempt was made to get from

AN ENCOUNTER wlrH INDIANS
A Courageous Act at the Time Of
the CHEYENNE War.

| A Courageous ACT at the Time o.
the Cheyenne War.
, In 1874 the Cheyenne Indians resi-
dent In the Indian Territory becam,
FESTIVE and undertook predatory ex
petitions, which aroused like blood
thirsty feeling in other tribes. A gen.
eral Indian war resulted, one Of the in
cidents of which, set down in Uncle
Sans Medal OF Honor" speaks nobly
for tho personal heroism OF our soldiers.
During n skirmish in Texas the white
men had sought shelter in buffalo
wallow Oh the top of a knoll. At that
moment it was discovered that ono OF
their number named Smith wa:
wounded, and had fallen outside OF the
shelter. Unless he could be brought
in he, would certainly be butchercd,
but any attempt at bringing him in
looked like certain death.
1t was q hero's opportunity, and the
hero was there. a scout named Chan.
man laid aside his rifle, sprang out OF
the wallOw, and, running to Smith,
tried to lift him. He thus tells his own
story OF what followed: Smith was
not "a very large man, but l declare he
seemed to weigh ton. Finally l lay
down, and got his chest acroJ - my bacl,
and his arms around my neck. 1t was

They all knew me and yelled Amos!

MANS TRUE CHARACTER.

Il Is Frequently Called Forth Only by
Momcntous Emergencies.
Great emergencies Gull forth the
great soul. War in the twinkling of
an eye turns village drunkards and
pettif9ggipg lawyers intg tHperats and
statesmen. Love transforms Cymon
from brute into u na1. Necessity
makes Shakespeare a dramatist; acct
dent reveals to Scott his true powers.
The most commonplace mon and women
have passed through the FOOLS para
disc Of love, when they were divine be-
ings worshiping divinity, and IL thai
FOOLS paradise, they for a riefmomont
found their true selves, saw deep into
the soul of their consort. That fitting
dream was in truth an awakening, the
brief opening of tho spiritual eye.
When the world of facts has passed
away, our dreams may remain. The
man of common sense asks for
realities, the poet knows that only
illusions are true. Look you, the man
whom you hate are thore not women
who Worship him, children who look
up to hima Who secs the true man
you who hate him, or they who love
him? Love Is a divine delight; it
reaches out over and around its object
into the illimitable; it is a part of the
Over-Soul, Of the Infinite, of God.
Hatred is painful. 1t strains and racks
the body, it blinds the vision, it makes
man conscious of his mortal limitations,
Lows sees the Virtues tAat are Of The
soul, hatred uliG the diseases OF the
