SEATTLE, Wash, November EAU
gustus SEVERN, of Milwaukee, who has
been searching for ten years for his son,
was rewarded today by finding him here
selling papers on the street. About
twelve years ago SEVERN and his wife
were divorced in Philadelphia, after be-
ing married about three years, and soon
after his wife eloped with an actor, tax
ing with her, her son August, aged 2
years, and daughter, Jennie, aged
year. Last April SEVERN heard of
the actor on the Pacific Coast.
III hastened to the Coast and
located my boy in Portland, Oregon"
said SEVERN. II found out that my
wife was dead and that my boy was with
an actor named Wallace, and that the
girl was adopted by respectable FIRMLY
in San Francisco. Fiom Portland l
traced the party having my boy to
Seattle, and arrived here today. The
Chief OF Police found my boy selling
papers. I took him into the Chief 's
Office and told him who L was. He was
incredulous until showed him picture
of his mother, when he broke down
completely. I will sue Wallace for the
possession of my boy and then 60 to San
Francisco to get the girl"

TWO TEN-ROUNDERs.
Tommy Danforth and Jim Webster
Respectively Knocked Out.

SAN FRANCISCO, November o. The
fight to a finish for a stake of 5000 at the
Golden Gate Club room tonight, between
Tommy Danforth, of Boston, and Billy
Dacey, of New York, resulted in Dan
forth being knocked out in the tenth
round. There was some hard fighting at
times; both men lost some blood.
In the eighth round Danforth went to
the floor, apparently knocked out, hut
arose just before the call of time, and
made rushing fight, going down from
the effect of an upper cut. He remained
down too long, and the referee declared
him out. The decision was Kissed, and
cries of "fake" were raised. Dacey be.
ing willing, the fight was continued TO,
two rounds, and at the end of the tenth
Danforth was unable to come to time.
A ten-round contest between young
Frenchy and Jim Webster, of San Jose
resulted in Webster being knocked ou'
after receiving terrible punishment.

PORTLAND, Ore., November 22.--Ad-
vices from Coos bay state that the action
of the Inspector OF Hulls in allowing the
Fearless, which was wrecked on Umpqua
bar, Tuesday, to go to sea, is very gen.
orally condemned by the people of Gardi-
ner and vicinity, as the fact that che was
unseaworthy was known. The Inspector
had forbidden her to go to sea. but after
ward countermanded the order, and thus
one-half of the hull is lying in the mud
half a mile below Gardiner, while the
stern, with the name On it, foated half a
mile above.

HUMAN JUDGMENTS.

Jesus never mentioned any of earth's great
men (so-called) with words of praisA. There
had been great coIquerors before his time
like Alexander the Great, but he never al
luded to them. There had been philosophers
like Plato and Aristotle and Socrates, but he
never spoke of them. Rich men had received
the notice Of their fellow men. hut he never
mentioned them by name. None Of those
of whom human history speaks most largely
came in for word of commenlation from
him or his apostles in later years. This
should bid us rause, and make us stop to
thin! whether our luman judgments are not
totally faulty. Have we not put the seal OF
greatness where it does not belong?
In what respect is the world better dHday
for the existence of the rich man like Crosus,
of conuuerors like Alexander, of philoso-
pliers like Plato of authors like Cicero!
What really valuable thing should We lose
had such men never existed? Gather all the
conouerors of the w>rld together, and say
whether they have been as useful to tie
worli as one John Bunyan or one j hn Wes-
lev. Put all your philosophical books to-
gether. ard declare whether they have ac-
complished as much for humanity Qs the
epistle of Paul to the Galatians. Match
Bismarck and Luther. and judge whether
politician or p: eacher has the best of it in
the long lun On the other hand, if you
blot out Abraham Joseph, Moses David
the singer, Elijah. Isaiah, John the Baptist
Paul, from human history, you usher in
blackness of darkness.-A. F. Schau0aer.

The Pumpkin Marquis.

The correspondent Of China news
paper gives the following details Of q
sudden change Of fortune in that country:
Upon the accession of the present Manchu
DYNASTY, the heir of the last Ming
Emperor, who committed suicide on a
coal hill in Pckin, was made Marquis
and known as Ming Marquis. During
the reign of the last Emperor but one,
the then holder of the title died with
out sons and with no direct heir to sue
coed to the Marquisate and estates.
Reference to the family records showed
that the right heir was an obscure person.
ace, who had been completely lost sight
of, and search was made for him every
where by the officials Of the banner under
which the Marquis was enrolled. For
long time no trace could be found of the
missing noblcman, but he was at length
discovered standing with barrow out
side one of the gates of Pckin selling a
species of large pumpkin. He proved to
be man of the most rustic appearance
and utterly uneducatcd. Ignorant OF his
DlrlIl, uc WIS SaluiAS piS."ii'"" ii'
hood as costermoneer. He was with
difficulty made to realize the sudden
freak by which fortune had raised him to
be one of the great mobiles of the land.
Hurried off to the office of his banner, he
was washed, shaved and combed. and his
rags exchanged for costly garments suited
to his new station in life. For some days
he was polished up generally, and taught
the etiquette and Manchu phrases ncces-
sary for his presentation to the Emperor.
His succession was allowed, and he went
to his palace and took possession. Reports
speak of him as an honest and kind
hearted man. who has done his best to
educate himself and fulfil the duties of
his high position. He is now about fifty
four years of age, and still retains his
rustic appearance. The birth of sons has
secured the succession, so that the family
is now in as strong a position as ever. 1t
is his duty to offer sacrifice each autumn
at the Ming tombs. His palace is near
one nf the gates OF the Imperial city.
He is popularly known as the Pumpkin
Marquis. s.-London Times.

SUNDAY TRAVELLING,

After John Adams had returned to his
Mass chus"tts home, from his presidential
office, he was travelling by carriage toward
his home when Saturday evening overlook
him, some ten miles away. He tarried with
the clergyman of the village who, in the
morning, assured him that he would be JUS
titled, if he desired, to drive to his home, as
his family were in sickness. But Adams in
sisted that he would not be justified, as his
example would be bad, and his explanation
could not be given to the general public, and
so he tarried for rest and woor-
ship until Monday morning, when he
resumed his journey. Half this Chris,
tian world would, we fear, laugh at this act
as one of superstition in the honorable ex-
president, but we see in it everything to adj
mire. Indeed it was one Of the noblest acts
that can stand to the credit Of that honored
name. Sunday travelling has become the
custom of the age, even with Christian men:
As matter of pleasure, it certainly should
be discouraged, and we are glad to know
that the Anti-traveling Union of America,
after life of four years, has 5000 members.
We would like to see the union grow into
GO, 600 within the four years to come.-Her-
aid of Gospel Liberty.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

1t is only the unlucky who think for
tune blind.
Children are the coupons on the bonds
of marriage.
White lies are the gentlemen ushers Of
the black ones.
A paradox is often truth serving its
apprenticeship.
Rarely do we contradict those we love
or those we despise.
Scratch pessimist, and, more often
than not, you will find an optimist turned
sour.
Many man forgets his evil deeds so
swiftly that he is honestly surprised when
any one else recalls them.
Man has tirmer grip on the truths he
thinks he has found out for himself, than
on those he has been taught.
Many many would blush for his wisest
decisions if only he should reflect on the
reasons which moved him to them.
To see a clever man making fool OF
himself is a sorry sight; and it is pitltul
to discover that he can always give most
excellent reasons for his folly.
Some people keep friend as children
have toy bank into which they drop
little coins now and again; and some day
they draw out the whole of their savings

The FerOcity of a Blue Crane.

Monroe Adams, of the Cotton avenue
restaurant, saw a large bird sailing around
about one hundred yards above him, on
Town Creek, and shot it, breaking one
of its wings. 1t fell to the ground and
Monroe made grab for the bird, and it
made thrust ut him with Il bill fully five
or six inches long, striking him on the
shoulder. He dubbed his gun and at it
they went, sometimes the bird getting in
lick and sometimes Monroe. The bird
was so much higher and longer and sup
pie that it could come in on any side, but
Monroe caught its long, snake-like neck,
gave a hasty lick with his gun and he
had Won the battle. 1t proved to be a
blue crane. 1t measured seven feet from
tip of wing to tip of wing, and stood as
high on its feet from point to beak. Mon
roe sold it to Captain P. Williams, and
ate some of it. He says turkey meat
won't compare with it.-Amerieus (Ga.)
