Union Is strength.

Christian Union is said to be in thA
air. 1t is perhaps more in the air
than in the hearts of the people, though
without doubt, many of the best peo-
pie in all the churches deplore tho di-
visions that disgrace and distigure the
religion of Christ. But the way to the
desired union does not seem clear.
The plan proposed by the Episcopal
Church is easily understood-thata all
evangelical bodies be swallowed up
by that church. Other religious bodies
are willing for union on ii similar plan,
each understanding that others will be
graciously taken in, The cry for
union has been largely an expression
of that desire. He who will get before
the Christian world wise and we'll
written plea for Christian union on
Scriptural grounds will do Il good work.
Can not the basis of true Christian fell
ship-fellowshi in Christ-be so
stated that it will commend itself TO
true hearts everywhereP Can such n
statement gain the attention of the
best minds everywhere? Should not
| an effort be made in this direction?-
ChriStian Stdaddrd.

that, spontaneously, religion becomes .
part and parcel of our being. All the
world to-day is yearning after some
thing. Men see that the world, with
its vanity and hollowness, can never
bring peace to the soul, and they seek
to obtain this peace by throwing them
selves into all sorts of religious OBJ
servances, when all the while they
lack the one thing needful, Christ
Jesus. 1t is only when they learn
that it is IA Savior that they need, and
take the Lord Jesus as such, that they
find the peace which passeth all UNDER
standing. Then to them old things
are passed away, and all things be-
come new. Lord RadStock.

Don't he Idle.

Industry is commended to as by all
sorts of examples deserving our regard
and imitation. All nature is a copy
thereof, and the whole world glass
wherein we may behold this duty rep
resented to US. Even beings voia Of
reason, of sense. of life itself, suggest
to us resemblances of industry; being
set in continual action to effect reason
able purposes conducting to the pres
ervation of their own beings, or to the
furtherance of the common good. And
shall we alone be idle while NIL things
are so busy? Shall we keep our hands
in our bosoms, or stretch ourselves on
beds OF laziness, while all the world is
hard at work in pursuing the designs
Of its Observation-Disclosures.

Power Without Noise.

AS Il rule the best work is done when
there is least noise. We are told that
when a machine goes noiseessly it
means that the friction is reduced to
the smallest possible quantity, and
that the force is not wasted on the
process, but comes out in accom-
plished work. AT the building of
Babel there was far more noise than
at the building of the Temple, but the
Temple was the more successful work.
There is n great noise in II thunder
storm; but it is the silent sunlight
that will at length make the winter
gather up his garments and leave tie
world to the vendure, the flowers and
the fragrance of spring. The shallow
stream rattles along in its course, but
when it is met and drowned by the
majectic tide rolling in from the sea
there is silence in the hills. In the
great tide there is power of more than
IL hundred babbling rivulets, yet its
coming is almost as quiet as the celes-
tial forces that bring it. 1t teaches
the lesson l wish to convey, that
things most potent are not necessarily
noisy. A strong and earnest life need
not make a fuss" AS men working
with our might, it is better to be
known by the bullet that strikes than
by the bang of the gun that sends it.
And this is the kind of spirit VIC need
if we wish to convince and constrain
others around us. A cold religion
can never commend itself. A man
must be on fire himself TO kindle
others. The dead child received life
because there was life in the prophet
to give. A man dead in sins will
never be quickened by another who i.
as nearly dead as himself. But any.
thing like enthusiasm is catching
One strong, aroused. hot-headed Nehe
miah, with II purpose and resolve
can turn every man in Jerusalem into
Nehemiah carrying trowel in on
hand for the wall and sword in tn
other for the enemy.

What Christ Asks.

A negative relation to Christ has al.
ways ended in his crucitixion. PLATE
said, II find no fault in him." but they
gave him up to the murderers! From
the spiritual necessity of the case, that
was inevitable. This is the irresissi-
bic sequence. Beware of it, There is
no security in negativeness. If you
merely find mo fault in him., you
will assuredly give up Christ under
external pressure. Christ asks us for
no good-conduct certificate. He asks
us for our hearts whole trust. He
claims the throne of our undivided
love. DR.. Joseph Parker.

Never quit certainty for hope" Is
good provisional axiom, but, had it
been strictly and invariably acted upon,
commerce would still have been in its
infancy, and the history OF discovery,
invention, and progress still to begin.
All the great enterprises, whether in
commerce or invention, have been be-
gun and carried on in direct violation
of this maxim.

How to don the gorgeous sealskin;
Tell him thi t If he'd IA dude be,

An EarthQuake-PrO Church,

There is now in process OF cOnstruo-
ton in Manila, Philippine Islands, an
earthquake proof church, descrip-
ton of which will undoubtedly be OF
interest to the manufacturers of archi-
tectural iron in America who
may desire to extend their trade
to that part of the world. The numer-
Gus catholic churches and cathedrals
of Manila have heretofore been con-
structed Of stone and wood. and have
suffered greatly from earthquakes.
Therefore, in the building of editsces
OF THO character the main object has
been to secure solidity in the walls
rather than attractiveness in external
appearance, and hence the churches
are much palmer than they would be
were the people not in state of con-
tinual apprehension that their places
OF worship may be shaken down in an
instant. How to construct a church
that would defy the most vigorous
terrcmot0 has been vexing problem.
apparently unsolvable, until the chief
engineer OF public works of Manila
conceived the idea of making an edifice
entirely OF wrought and cast iron,
securely bolted together, and no more
to be shaken apart by subterranean
disturbance than solid block CT stone.
The result OF his ingenuity is the iron
church of San Sebastian, which is now
partially finished and is attracting the
wonder and admiration of all who see
it.
The design is original, with two tall
steeples at the front end and number
of shorter spires over each abutment.
When finished it will be painted in
imitation OF stone, and will present an
external appearance similar to that Of
many OF the beautiful stone cathedrals
OF Europe and America. Inside the
church is 1862 feet long by 20 wide
the height TO the tops OF the arches is
SO feet, and to the spring OF the same
81 feet; the nave is a span OF 80 feet
and there are two side aisles. There
are two towers over the principa
facade 10 feet square and 40 fee
high from the ground to the top OF tn
mid-vane. Over the transept there i
a tower 80 feet square and ia fee
from the G. md to the top Of the eros

The Pin and the Bird.

A lady at Saratoga Springs, N. Y,
visiting a Walnut street residence a
few days since, was attracted to a
beautiful canary bird by its resem-
bIance to one she had lost last spring.
She was informed that the songster
had come to them, they finding it one
chilly morning perched upon win
dow sill. The lady. stated that the
bird had been taught to perform the
pretty little feat, when given its lib.
erty in a reom, of picking up pin
and sticking it in the carpet. The
cage-door was opened, and as the ca
nary flew forth the lady threw a pin
out in the center of the floor. The
bird Immediately few down to where
it lay, caught it in its bill, dexter
ously stuck it in perpendicular posi-
ton in the carpet, after which it
hoped off a step or two and warbled
fourth some of its sweetest notes, as if
in exultation at the feat it had accom-
plished. 1t was her long lost songster.

SHOT AT A CONDUCTOR.
An Enraged Tramp Tries to Kill
Conductor Scott.

Yesterday afternoon Conductor E.
NJ. Scott, of the west end division of
the Missouri Pacific discovered a
tramp aboard his train, when he
reached Lamoute. He found the fellow
in box car and ordered him to vscate.
The tramp paid no attention to the
order beyond doggedly declining to 60
out of the car. Conductor Scott then
hustled the tramp out of the car, and
started toward the caboose when
the tramp drew a revolver and taking
deliberate aim at Scott, fired, but the
bullet went wide of the
mark. The tramp fed
and quickly disappeared from view.
To-day the Kansas City police, hay
ing received a good description of the
tramp arrested him as he alighted
from a freight train just as 1t was
pulling into the yards in that city.
He said his name was L. G.. Butts.
Constable Bob Ramsey leaves tonight
for Kansas City to bring Butts to
Sedalla for preliminary examination.

Ex-Conyfct REYNOLDS.

Probably one of the most noted fakirs
that has struck Sedalia in long time
came here Monday and left last night.
For the past three days John n.
Reynolds has spoken on the streets
from wagon, regarding the proposed
ex-convicts' home for the ex-convicts
of Missouri and Kansas, and book oil
which he is author, "The Twin Hells. u
He would take up collection which
was exclusively for the benefit of the
proposed home and one-half the profits
realized from the sale of his book was
also donated to the home.
Mr.. Reynolds left last night, bag
and baggage, for Springfield, Mo-,
where he will endeavor to 60 through
with the same programme.
