THE NORTH AMERICAN.

The North American for April is
again upon the LIGHT table and is al
ways a welcome visitor. Unfortu-
nately it does not come with that
regularity which is TO be desired in
review of such sterling merit. The
April number is very felicitous in the
topics which it presents. Just on the
eve of a new administration of the
government, the articles by Senator
Allison on IAN Extra Session of Con-
gress,n and the tariff and surplus
questions arising out of its considera-
tion-"The Chinese must Stay" by
Yam Phon Lee, Yale college graduate
Eugene Schuyler's representation
of the difficulties in the way of Amer
leans marrying while abroad-Johna-
than Chace's disquisition On "ln-
adequate Congressional Salaries
and George Haven Putnam's "Plea
for International Copyright" are all
timely and cannot fail to attract at
tention. These are not the only live
articles the number contains. The
symposium on Fog Signals at Sea-"
is emlnsntly pertinent, and these all
characterizes the number as one UNI
usually practical and alive to present
issues. There are other articles equal
ly readable, not so much in the line of
practical affairs, but still full of vital
interest to the scholar, the scientist
and the mOraliSt.

AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT.
THURSDAY, APRIL. 4, 1899.
ONE OF THE SAM s.

There are two Reverned Sans i'll
America, and both we'll known from
the pines of Maine to the redwOods OF
California. They are Rev. Sam Jones
and Rev. Sam Small, commonly call
ed " Big Sam and I" Little SAM
These terms refer to the mental and
not to the physical proportions Of the
men. They are both in the same KIND
of business. saving souls for cash and
driving hard bargains with the devil,
and comparisons are therefore not
odious. Both men have brains and
magnetic gifts of OratOry, and their
worst enemies never accused either Of
lack of originality. In fact their
originality is their great staple
in trade, and as gospel slang
singers they have no equals
on earth. They run the doxolOgy
works at breakueck pace, as Scotty
Briggs would say, and have more go
in them than a whole seminary full
of the Peter, Paul and prOpriety breed
of parsons. Either one of them is
a whole theological team with a
divinity bull dog under the wagon.
Can sling birthstone in a way that is
a holy terror TO sinners, and discount
the devil in stocking the cards for
human stakes. OF these two sleuth
hounds of salvation, Sam Jones is the
Big Sam. What he does not know Of
the latest, improved, high-pressure,
dou BILE barrelled, back action meth
DDS of snatching reprObates from per-
dition, has never been revealed. His
language is true, pithy to the eX-
treme. His sentences peppery, and
red peppery at that. His language is
like a knife, it fairly skins as
it plays around the epidermis
of traasgressiOn and glitters with the
expectancy of revealing the true in
wardness, the soul and spirit of mi
Quty. His language fascinates you
like a snake, but there is conviction
in it, and when he pOrtrays the mean,
ness of humanity you feel as small in
nature as the other Sam is in name
No man has been more criticised
more censured, more applauded, more
condemned, and more execrated this
decade than has Rev. Sam Jones. HI
is today the greatest drawing card o
all the hundreds of brilliant orators
who yearly charm the great Chautau'
qua circle in its summer retrea
among the Thousand Islands. Hi
words burn like fire, and ten thou
sand people hang breathless on his
lips. His language is riddled witt
slang, but it is a slang that force
it's way down, down, down
into the very deep of con
seriousness, and the refinement
of the most exclusive circles forget tn
slang i'm the awful inCisiveness of it
meaning. There must be something
marvellous about the mental ant

but too many of his gifted brothers all
less gifted than he, have gone, and in

ginning of the end which sooner or

like common things, bow to the inev-

The Luling Signal makes this note
upon the recent disaster at Samoa:
"The great storm at Apia on March
18th came near wiping out the United
States navy entirely"
If the Signal will carefully examine
the press dispatches it will discover
its error. So far from wiping out the
navy, it only left very small hole.
The loss of life was the serious thing.
Already another fleet fully the COM
plement of that destroyed has been
