Miss Wilcox's Engagement.

New YORK, Special Telegram, Aug 81
The Wilcox family are still in New York, but
Mr.. Wilcox to-day refused to say anything
for publication further than to declare the
stories printed about his daughter were false,
and that she was engaged to Henry ]. Milius
of Milan, Italy, to whom she would
be married in Minneapolis in
October. He feels very keenly the
unpleasant publicity to which his family
have been subjected. An intimate friend Of
the family said to-day: Il know the facts
about this unfortunate affair; but as Mr..
Wilcox declines to go into the matter. I can
how cruelty misrepresented The girl has
been. She is as good, pure and as loving a
girl as can be found anywhere. She was
not wronged by this Sel!on, and the
newspapers have done her great
injustice. Miss Wilcox became acquainted
with Mr.. Miius in Italy, although he once
lived in the Northwest His brothers are in
the banking business in Adrian, Mich, and
he has many friends in the West and in this
city. His father who, although an English
man, makes his home in Italy, is man Of
large wealth, and the son is rich in his own
right. He is about thirty three wears old,
hne-looking and Of the best social standing.
Miss Wilcox is Just seventeen, beautiful
and attractive girl, and has had many suitors
besides Mr. Milius, to whom she became
engaged month ago. There was no oppo-
sition to the engagement, as has been re-
ported by Miss Wilcox's family. Miss Will
cox brings her full wedding trosseau with
her. After the wedding the young couple
will make their home at Menaggio on Lake
Como, in a villa which Nj. Millius' father
has given him. and will visit this country
every year. The Wilcox family are well
known and highly esteemed in Minneapolis,
and these erroneous stories published about
the alleged elopement are from that fact
peculiarly hard upon them.

der coatrol and direction of the treasuBE de-
partment. 1t there is any blame attaching
to these seizAaes it must be laid at the doors

Studying the Currents of the Ocean.

Studying the Currents of the Ocean.
 Prince Albert of Monaco has recently reported the results of his experiments to ascertain the ocean circulation in the North Atlantic. Four years ago he set adrift several hundred floats, many of which have been picked up. Some of these were hollow copper balls, some oak barrels and some ordinary bottles. f-....... s.s. .-.5... .--.. .-..
 In 1885 he cast overheard on the seas northwest of the Azores 169 floats. Fourteen of this number have been re- covered, giving clear indications of . southeasterly current curving around the Western Islands at daily mean rate of 8.83 miles. Of 510 floats which the prince launched in 1885 nearer the French coast nine have been picked up, showing the movement of cur rent in a similar direction with mean velocity of about six miles day.
 The United States Coast Survey is now conducting similar experiments on the Atlantic currents with improved floats, each marked by white painted pine staff. It is to be hoped in the in- terests of navigation that all who find them will comply with the printed in- structiOns which each float carries.- New York Herald.

G0d, slnk1ng away rom everything that IS good and blessed.
 Then what do we want. A swimmer! A strong swimmer, A swift swimmer! And, blessed be God, in my text we have him announced. ''He shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim.o You have noticed that when 8 swimmer goes out to rescue any one he puts off his heavy apparel. He must not have any such impediment about him if he is going to do this great deed. And when Christ stepped forth to save us he shook of the sandals of heaven, and his feet were free and then he stepped down into the wave of our transgressiOns, and it came up over his wounded feet, and it came above the spear stab in his side-aye, it dashed to the lacer- ated temple, the high water mark of bis anguish. Then, rising above the flood, "he stretched forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim."
 It you have ever watched 8 swimmer, you notice that his whole body is brought into play. The arms are iexed, the hands drive the water back, the knees are active, the head is thrown back to escape strangulation, the whole body is in propulsion. And whenC Christ sprang into the deep to save us, he threw his entire nature into it-all his Godhead, bis omniscience, his goodness, bis love, his om- nipOtence-head, heart, eyes, hands, feet. We were far out on the sea and so deep down in the waves and so far out from the shore that nothing short of an entire God could save us. Christ ieaped out for our rescue, saying: "Lo come to do thy will, !" and all the surges of human and satanic hate beat against him, and those who watched him from the gates of heaven feared he would go down under the wave, and instead of saving others would himself perish but, putting his breast to the foam, and shaking the surf from bis locks, he came on and on, until he is now within the reach'of every one here. Eye omniscient, heart infinite, arm omnipotent. Mighty to save, even unto the uttermost. Oh, it was not half . God that trampIed down bellowing Gennesaret. It was not quarter of God that mastered the demons of Gadara. It was net two-thirds of . God that lifted up Laxsrus into the arms of bis overjoyed sisters. 1t was not . fragment of God who offered pardon and peace to an the race. No. This nighfy swinmer thrsw hb grandeur, his a3osy, hh nigh1, Ais wisdo1n, his omnipo- fnes a5d n stsi1ify into this one acs. it
