The Imported Liquors question:
Leagthy Discussion Ensues.
wAsIIrNGToS, May ss.-In the
Senate, the Senate bill subjecting
imported liquors TO the laws Of the
several States was again taken UP,
and Morgan made an argument
against It's cOnstitutionality.
Faulkner expressed himself in
favor Of doing Something, Of pass
ing some UilI that would relieve the
situation which now confronted
Congress. Speaking Of the reguia-
ton OF tine liquor Traffic, he said
that he himself believed, rs did the
people of his State, that a high
license system was the true method
Of dealing with the question. He
had given notice Of an amendment
somewhat similar TO the substitute
reported by the judiciary commit
tee. lie criticised the substitute,
Directing for instance 10 the use Of
the wOpi prohibition" and sag-
gestcd that the object could be at
tanned by the use 0fthe word "regu-
latiOn."
Wilson Qa.) did not agree with.
Faulkner, anu argued in favor Of
the substitute.
Pugh argued in favor Of the bill,
anu said that its defeat would leave
the States in most serious predica-
nent.
Call expressed sympathy with the
idea that the States had absolute
control Of the traffic in intoxicating
liquors, and was willing TO vote for
almost any bill which would attain
that end:

ingalls, inquired what had been
done in regard TO the Senate amend
ment prohibiting the sale Of liquor
Ina cautcens.
Allison said the provision was
modified TO read: "rhAt no alcO-
holic liquors, beer or wine, shall he
sold or supplied enlisted men in any
canteen or post traders store in any
State or Territory in which the sale
Of alcoholic liquors, beer or wine, is
prohibited 10y law.'
Replying to n question by Blair,
Allison said the Senate cOnferees
had found it necessary TO yield 10
the House conferees in the matter.
There was quite n spirited debate on
this point. Blair held that iJ
was an entire surrender Of the pro-
position.
Allison said, Of course, the PrOvi-
sion applies only 10 States and Ter
ritoTies where a prUhibitOry law pre-
walls. The House c0nf,rees were
unanimous in insisting that the Sem
ate prOvisO shall not remain in the
bill.
Paddock said it is within bounds
TO state that nineteen-t wentieIhs Of
the troops are stationed outside OF
the States and Territories where
prohibition laws are enfOr, ed.
Allison said the Senate confe-
rees did the best they could in the
matter.

Of mine gave little dinner, to which a
young friend, his wife and their little
child were invited. The child, only
three years old, was very precocious,
bashful and terribly sensitive little one.
During the dinner she upset q glass OF
water upon the table cloth, and hastily
noticing the looks in her direction, her
little lip quivered and her eyes filled
with tears.
cat that moment my friend who gave
the dinner knocked over his own glass
with q crash that drew every eye i'll his
direction. He laughed over the matter,
SAID it made no difference, etc., and

smiled again.

RESURRECTION POWER.

Many years ago there died i'll the city Of
Hanover young countess Of pronounced
infdel proclivites. She denied the doctrine
of the resurrection in toto. and perhaps in
vain effort to defy any supernatural power
that she thought might have a possible eX-
istence, size ordered that her body should be
laid beneath a solid, and in her judgment,
strictly carried out. and there seemed o rea-
sonabie expectation that the pile would re-
main intact for many generations at least,
and the homes of the sceptical countess rest
in the oblivion she desired. But it was
strangely ordered otherwise.
A tiny seed shared the womans resting.
place, and in its resurrection might bad
burst its shell, sent its small roots into the
ground, and SLOWLY gathering strength and
proportions with the years. bad wrenched
open its prison doors, severed in twain Inc
massive granite slabs. and. having reached
the light, had spread itself heavenward, until

Area Of Foreign Possessions in Africa.

An endeayor is made by the Economist
to estimate the area Of territory in Africa
possessed by England, France and Ger
many. The calculation is a difficult
one, since although the regions assigned
to France and Germany under recent
treaties are clearly defined, there is no
fixed boundary to the sphere of British
influence which may expand in various
directions. The Economist, however,
arrives at the following result:
AreG ofsQucro

British dominions, pre-
tectorates and sphere ,o
of influence. ......... ,b3J,CUJ 5O,UJuVoo
French dominions and
sphere of influence. 2, i2o, oOo lI,VOOOo9

In the above estimate, Egypt, as far
as Wady Halfa is assigned to England.
The French sphere of influence includes,
of course, the Sahara, with an area OF
1,70O,OO square miles and possible
population Of 1000, 900.

Deep down in the hearts of chi dren and

best spirit is appreciated is more likely to

He has made high attainment who Is able
to use this language in the full assurance of
faith" It is possible attainment. 1t has
been made in the past, and what others have
done we can do. Job had made it when he
said, 'sI know that my Redeemer liveth."
So had Thomas, when be exclaimed, "Aly
Lord and my God" So had Paul, Il know
whom l have believed, and am persuaded
that be is able to keep that have committed
unto him against that day"
This attainment is not so difficult to make
rs many Christians seem to think. How
comes it to pass that any man has the right
to call The Saviour his own? This question
is answered in the Scripture. Christ is the
believers by the gift of God. What Is the
record9 God so loved the world that he
gave his only begotten Son." lie gave him
to he the head over all things to the church."
These words, and there are many others Of
O similar import, are plain, and they lie at
the foundation Of all assurance.
They have gone far astray who say they
have gained or may gain any right TO III
interest in Christ by their obedience. What
ever they may do or may fail to do. they
cannot in themselves. claim any part i'll the
Son Of Cod. But we have not q right to
what God gives us? Who will call this right
in question? The only question is. has God
given Hi Son: There cannot he two opin-
ions on this point; the word is plain.
Christ is ours by virtue Of the gift Of the
Father. No one need set up his unworthi-
ness as an objection; this has nothing to do
with the matter. \ king may beS'ow gift
on q beggar rs well Hs on a noble, anil the
latter has no more right to Lis gift than the
former haS to his. In the one case as in the
other, the right to tie Gift depends on the
will of the giver, and not on the merit CT the
receiver.
Christ is the believers by his acceptance
of this gift. What is acceptance: 1t is not
joy or holiness or metknesS. There may be
acceptance without sny large measure Of
these graceS. Acceptance is JUS acceptance
Minis crs of Christ, when they reach this
point in preaching the Gospel, are often IN
prrp!cXitv and sometimes in DESPAIR. Men
will ask. What is it to accept Christ? How
CAN accept Christ,
No one reeds ny instruction on this point.
Every one knows what it is to accept 4 gift;
any explanation only Garkens counsel with
words. II NJ IN asks, How can eat: we
only reply, You know how 10 eat; eat AMI live.
So when one says, How can accept Christ:
we have only this answer. Son know what
it is to accept a gift; accept Christ and He is
yours.
1t -. therefore, evident that the assurance,
which finds expression in the words. My
Beloved il mirc,' rests on the fact that
Christ is the gift OF divine love This Is the
reason why this attainment is an easy one to
make. Ii its possession depended on our
selves, it would he among the things for
which it is useless to hOEe. Bit anyone can
receive gift. As Christ is the free gift of
himself and Of His Father. al We have 10 10
