The Ketchum keystone. [volume] (Ketchum, Idaho) 1885-1899, 1889-06-22

FLOODS, cyclones and fires follow
in rapid and awful succession
throughout our land. God sends
these fearful messengers to warn the
people of their forgetfulness of Him.
They have received blessings for
which they have not given thanks.
There is something else to be
thought of besides the worship of
mammon, and the idle pleasures of
life. "The still small voice is heard. !"
How many are ready to cry out in
the spirit of Saul: "Lord, what will
thou have me do?" The Johnstown
flood is the most terrible calamity
that has ever befallen the people of
America. Such a scene of chaos
and death was never witnessed be-
fore. Thousands of men, women
and children sunk beneath the wild,
surging waste of waters, and as
many more lie buried beneath the
debris of their once happy homes.
The bereavement and utter desola-
ton of those who were spared to
find all that made life dear, swept
away in that terrible hour, is be-
yond the power of pen to portray,
or human lips to express.
A good lesson can be taken from
Isaiah's advice to his people when
their enemies encompassed about
them and sought to lead them into
trouble so as to accomplish their
own wicked ends. Here is what
the good prophet told them: "Come
my people, enter into thy chambers
and shut thy doors about thee;
hide thyself as it were, for little
until the indignation be

THE st. Louis Post Dispatch OF
June Z, contained the following :
"The prisoners confined in the city
Jail had been turned out for exer-
else but short time yesterday af-
ternoon, when five we'll dressed la
dies made their appearance at Jail
er Callahan's office and asked per-
mission to hold services with the
prisoners. Permission was granted
them, and they proceeded at once
to the Jail, where a simple service
of song and prayer was held for
about half an hour. The inmates
clustered around the organ, listen
ing in respectful silence, and many
a head, bowed with years of crime
and shame, was bowed in response
to the request from the leader. At
the conclusion of the exercises bou-
quets of fresh flowers were distrib-
uted among the prisoners, verse
of scripture being attached to each
emblem. Tracts and religious jour-
nails were also circulated promiscu-
ously. The flowers were received
with many expressions ofgratitude,
and it was noticed that not a man,
hardened as he might be, refused
to accept the tokens. Remembran-
ces of bygone days came upon the
erring ones, and thoughts of the
beauties of the world from which
their crimes had secluded them,
made the delicate blossoms of more
than momentary value. The ladies
were delegates from the w. c. T. U.

NEW YORK. February Id The Western rail
road situation had much better aspect O.day
and this caused an improved feeling on the
street, which was reflected in a more general
upward movement. although the advances
were small but uniform. At the opening the
market was firm, but an attack upon Burlington
caused yielding all over the list and the
prices were brought down to'a shade below the
first figures. A sudden change in the temper
Of the general list occurred about noon, every
thing moving up with will and the grangers
and coalers taking the lead. The rebound in
Burlington was very sharp and the best prices
of the day was reached just before the close,
which was active and firm to strong, generally
at fractional advances for the day.
Government bonds were dull but firm.
Petroleum opened firm at S9ac. and declined
to 89Lc. in the early trading A sharp turn
was then caused ON buying by Standard Oil
brokers and, on the announcement OF an ad-
vance in the refined market, advanced aharply
and closed strong at 91s6c.
