xew Theology. Conception or GOD

new TneOtO&yo CO0ceptsOn Of sS0o
God and nature are not dual. We
have abandoned, or are abandoning,
the carpenter conception OF creation
the notion that God made the world
a. builder makes house. We are
substituting for it the far grander
conception OF God immanent in ma
ture, and OF nature as the thought,
not tho handiwork, OF God. We
have cast away our chiIdhood's con-
ception OF robed monarch, en-.
throned somewhere in a central capi-
tai, and ruling tho world by means OF
an angelic bureaucracy--a kind OF
infinite Gar OF a Russian universe
We think OF him as we think OF the
soul in the body, omnipressnt in all
its parts. We believe, with the old
Hebrew psalmist, that all power be.
longs unto God; that all force is in
the last analysis in the will; that al
so-called natural forces are the out
workings of the divine purposes
that all so-called natural laws ar,
only habits of the divine activity
They are SIMPLY the way in whicl
God is accustomed to act. But thi
is pantheism, exclaims some fright
ened reader. II it were wo shout
not be alarmed. But it is not pan
theism. That the All is God, is on
philosophic conception; that God
in the All IN All is pantheism, the
Paul was pantheist, and wo are M
afraid to be in his company. 1t
indeed the company Of tho ele'
thinker Of all ages and all religion
We, therefore, have done forev,
with the distinction between natu
and the supernatural is but the spin
force in nature. Everything natur
is supernatural; everything supe
natural Is natural. Rev. DIR. Lynn
Abbott in the April Forum.

Virginia City Chronicle. The daily
bullion yield of that lode is fully $780,

old miners of Nevada that deep min
ing would make Colorado properties
pay where surface gophering would
only result in loss TO those who con-
Quoted such operations. The "blg
bonanza was found in the 1700-foot
level of the California and Consoli-
dated Virginia, and in the space OF
few weeks made several Californians
many times millionaires. In Colorado
800 or 400 feet is considered a great
depth, and the mines that have =
greater depth are comparatively few.
To successfully work a mine 1000
feet or more in depth, requires ex-
pensive machinery and heavy capital,
but there is every reason to believe
that deep mining would be attended
with quite as much success as it has
been in Nevada. 1t would be inter-
esting to see what one of the great
veins of the San Juan or the Aspen
district would yield at depth Of
I 1900 feet, and the time is coming
when mining men will determine this

A Very Good Dog story.

The following dog story is absolutely
true, the occurrence having come under
the observation of the physician at Old
Orchard and related to the attorney upon
honor: An intelligent dog was afflicted
by feas. They clouded his existence, if
we may believe appearances, since four
ffths of the time the intelligent dog was
tied up in a double bow knot fighting
the smaller and less Intelligent but more
ni1nble flea. He had chewed the hair
from his sides, and his eye was lack
luster. The NANCY canine decided to
take a bath in the waves of the ocean,
and in doing so discovered hat as the
sea water heightened upon his legs and
sides and back the fieas fed before it as
ever the wicked flee.
Soon after the dog was seen backing
out into water, a smile growing oven his
-countenance as an idea took possession
of him. He was next seen with a huge
wad of cotton in his mouth. With this
lifted aloft he backed out. The fieas
crawled higher as the sea water rose
about him. They occupied his back and
then his head, made uncomfortable as
they were by the salt water. Then at
last, as the dogs head sank very slowly
beneath the waves, the multitude va
Gated it, jumping to the wad Of cotton
that wa floating just at the dogs nose.
The feas ioated away forever Oh the
tickle wad of cotton, while the dog
swan ashore, to be forever embalmed in
history by the story of the doctor and
the lawyer and the newspaper.-Christ-

The Safe Side.

In front of a machine shop on Wood
bridge street there is big buzz saw lean
ing against the wall as a sign.
Yesterday forenoon a man with a
bundle under his arm was passing, when
he caught sight of the saw and sheered
off into the street and came to a halt. A
teamster, who observed the action,
laughed and said:
TT isn't running and it won't bite"
81 dunno about that" replied the man
as he went a little closer. II got fooled
on one of them things once, and 1 don't
propose to be caught again. Look
a-there.,' -
He held up a hand on which only the
thumb was left, and continued;
81 didn't 'spose that saw was running
either, but she was. III just sort O shy
out and give her the road. If she's run

Too Much Money for a Picture.

Meissonier's picture of Napoleon in
1914. only 30 inches by 90, has just been
sold for e34 900, the highest price ever
given for the work Of a living artist.
The art world naturally exults over this
solid proof of appreciation; but we Won
der whether it really benefits by these
prices even in a pecuniary sense. We
suspect not. It is found in the literary
world that an oyerpowering demand for
a single book arrests the sale of books in
general, the reservoir Of cash for buying
books being in any one year a fixed
quantity. If that economic rule extends
t o art, NJ. M~eissonier's phenomenal tri-
umph just prevents thirty-four artists
from receiving & 900 apiece. That may
be good or bad for art-we are not decid-
ing-but it limits sadly the number of
art producers, among whom might be
found, if we may in the teeth of the
market suggest 50 audacious a POSSIBLE
ity, wen NJ. Meissonier's superior. That
the huge price will help NJ. Meissonier
to paint still better is an assumption re
futed by all art history.-Spectator.

The Greendale Oak.

y curious historic interest attaches to
the great Greendale oak of Walbeck
Abbey. One hundred and seventy-six
years ago the Duke Of Portland made a
wager that he could drive a coach and
four through the hole made in the trunk.
He won his bet and ruined the tree.
Measured above the dukes arch it is So
feet 3 inches in circumference, The arch
is 20 feet 3 inches in height, with a width
above the middle of G feet 8 inches. The
height of the top of the branches is "a
feet.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The wooden parts of tools, such rs
stock Of planes and handles Of chisels,
are often made to have a nice appear
ance by French polishing, but this adds
nothing to their durability. A much
better plan is to let them soak in linseed
oil for a week, and rub them with a
cloth for a few minutes every day for a
week or two. This produces a beauti-
full surface, and exerts a solidifying and
preservative action on the wood.

Is the seth of February a Day?

The question whether the goth of Feb
ruary is legally a day or not has lately
been presented to the courts of Indiana.
There is authority in that state to the
effect that the 18th and Goth of February
are to be counted as one day; but when
the supreme court so decided it had not
examined an ancient English statute
concerning leap year, passed in the TWEEN
ty-third year of Henry III, which bears
upon the subject. Accordingly, in the
case to which we refer, the judge deter
mined to consider the question de novo,
and he came to the conclusion that the
goth of February nust be regarded as a
day in the contemplation of the law, at
least, as much as any other, and must
be reckoned in the legal computation of
time where days are considered.
SIS the man who works on Feb. 29 and
20 to have pay for n day only he
asks. Has a judgment rendered on
Feb. % no priority as a lien over one
rendered on Feb. 20? Could a MAJ SEN
fenced to be hung on Feb. 90 be legally
executed on Feb. 2S?" OF course not.
The confusion on the subject has evil
IDENTIFY arisen from statutes treating of
the entire year as q whole. Thus, there
is a provision in the Revised Statutes Of
New York that whenever the term
'"year" or years" shall be used in any
law sentence, contract OF instrument Of
writing the year intended shall be taken
to consist of $50 days, a half year 182
days, a quarter of a year 81 days, and
1.-THE added day of a leap year and the
day Immediately preceding, if they shall
occur in any period SO computed, shall
be reckoned together as one day."-St.
Tnuis Renublic.

German Government in Africa.

German territory in East Africa is
placed already under a most careful sys-
TEN Of administration. Zanzibar is the
headquarters for the imperial commits
sioner, Maj. Wissman, and the main
staff, while each coast station is under
charge Of a commanding officer, respon-
sible for both the political ard military
Management. These officials send an elab-
crate report monthly to headquarters,
while, at the same interval, the commits
sioner visits each station for a personal
inspection. -Four steamers, with whale
boats, gigs and smaller vessels, keep up
a regular service for passengers and
mails between the various stations and
Zanzibar. The military forces comprise
207 officers, 1900 Soudanese troops and
800 Zulu and Arkari soldiers, besides a
body of Somalis for police duty, and are
divided into two corps, for duty respect
lively in the north and south, each in
charge Of a sub-commander. Hospitals
are established at Pangani and Baga-
moyo.-Exchange.

Good Razor Stron.

Few persons know how excelle a razor
strop is the human hand or arm. If a
razor is in fairly good condition and not
in need Of the oil stone it may 0 0 be
whetted to a fine edge on the palm
of the hand d the inner side of
the forearm. The latter is best if it
is free Of hair, as it frequently is, for it
presents a whetting surface quite as long
as the ordinary strop. The fat
portion of the palm, between the little
finger and the wrist, however, makes an
excellent strop, The process Of strop-
ping a on the forearm appears a
bit alarming to the locker on, though
there is little danger that a skillful man
will do himself harm.--New York Sun.

TWO SMART LITTLE YOUNGSTERS.
They Fight. Sell Their Papers and Divide
the Proceeds.
What the snail boy who haunts City
Hall park DOES not know about the ms
and outs OF human nature is hardly
worth knowing at all. He understands
among great many other valuable
things that The elderly and well to do
citizen I4Ially likes to see a fight, and
afterwtrI. tesretting his yielding to
brutal ipngin for scene5of gore, Is ready
to make artslds in some way or other.
This fact received a practical demonstra-
ton a dayor-tg2o ago.
Two neveab1ys, dirty, ragged and
shrewd, as is usually the case with the
urchins IN the park, stationed themselves
where ho-ncHard bound Brooklynites
would be sure to see th-n. These boys
were not of a size. One was fairly
plump. the other was a weakened bit of
humanity but he understood his business
thoroughly. they played their farce
neatly and very much in this fashion:
The larger boy bears down upon the
other, cuffs him, uses disgraceful Ian
guage and tears his papers. The at
tackled youth drops the papers and re-
turns the compliments verbal and pugi-
listic. There is a clinch and the small
boy goes down. By this time several
Brooklgnites have halted and a little
crowd has collected. Then the battle is
renewed. The youngsters seem to strike
out ~yiciously, but few of their blows tell.
Again the smaller boy goes down. He
IN up pluckily again and once more
he is worsted. He squeezes a tear or
two from his eyes, picks up his torn
papers and begins to wall.
His stock in trade is ruined, and he
must 90 ~supperless to bed. Two or three
bystanders put their hands iii their
pockets. They have been entertained in
rather a disreputable way, and remorse
suggests atonement in the way of help
ing the youngster out of his troubles.
In no time his stock is disposed of, and
he isn't asked to make change. A park
policeman, attracted by the sight of the
crowd, is approaching, and the little fel-
low, pocketlng his gains, slides away.
His antagonist has already disappeared.
There are two scenes in the last act.
One is on the steps of the bridge. Two
or three men are taking a look at the
newspapers they have just bought from
the urchin. The inspection is not all
that might be wished in its results. The
papers are two or three days old. The
other scene is in a cheap restaurant not
far from the park. Two boys who have
but just now been engaged in seeming
ly desperate combat are seated socially
at the same table. "'Well go some pie,
too, Jimmy" remarks the smaller. Il
tell yer, that's the greatest racket I ever
worked on the suckers. New York

NEW YORK. Dec. %.
Stocks were very dull to-day, esp ecially In the
afternoon, and remained weak as rule until
the last hour, when there was partial recovery.
Considering the limited market there was in the
forenoon some bear pressure, and in Union Pa
cifc, Rock Island, st. Paul, Missouri Pacific and
Chicago Gas there were moderate lines of short
stock put out. The vanderbilts, as usual Of late,
were the only strong point in the list, Lake Shore
especially showing marked strength. 1t advanced
in the early dealings and was held at the best
figures throughout the day. In the morning
hours all the grangers were weak and St. Paul
dropped over per cent Silver was also again
weak and touched 1919, and severe pressure
upon Chicago Gas brought that stock down from
$50 to a3s4. The pressure entirely ceased after
delivery hour, however, and general improve
ment took place by which a portion Of the early
losses was recovered, and Silver Certificates
moved up rapidly on the prospect Of action on
the bill for the purchase of the surplus bullion in
the country. The dizziness continued unrelieved
until the close, which was firm at the rally,
Railroad bonds were duh, but most OF the
changes were in the direction of higher prices.
