Stanlay's Perfect Faith in God.

1t is universally noted in SANKEY'S
recitalS of his terrible experience in
Africa how greatand unquaI'hed Is
his faith in God. Like Livingstone
and Gordon, this trait became in him
the dominating sentiment OF his adj
ventures. In narrating them he places
it first and foremost. Says the New
York Tribune: "a psychologist
might find much food for speculation
in thiS--in the effect upon the soul
of Wanderings through vast solitudeS
and of communion with nature In
her most luXuriant, her most desc
late and her most savage moods. But
fineSpun theories set aside, here Is
the significant fact, that the most he
rOiC of living men is also one OF the
most deYOut. He sees nothing un-
manly in being religious. He Is not
ashamed to say that he believes in
God and trusts in Him for guidance.
He repudiateS what the vulgar call
luck and the unbeiievers chance. To
him the wisdom and the monitlonS
of Il Supreme Power are tremen-
dous verify. 1t is with the frank.
ness of a most inspiring faith that lie
concludes his self told Odyssey Wa
The feryent cry; Thanks be t0fG0c
forever and evern And TO this ey-
cry one who appreciates high
chievement and exalted manhood
will add his thank, for the life and
the ennoblIng example of Henry M.
Stanley.

and safe rock upon which to build

How Cannon are Bored.

Az idSt Tie CdutlOtl 10 tuiuSh uo""
and Is ready to be bored inside. In
this operation it must be bored so
straight and true that the boring tool
entering at the exact centre OF the
small end of the cannon, will come
out precisely at the centre of the
large end. seventeen feet away. The
boring tool or "bit" ia held firm
and motionIess, while the great mass
OF steel to be bored turns around.
This plan Is found to insure steadiness
of the "bit." 1t would be almost i'm
possible to make this bit firm and
solid enough to do its difficult work
and yet free to turn around in the
cannon.
The bit attends strictly to business
and steadily bores its way through
the steel. The boring tool is called
"hog.nosed" bit, and it roots up that
cannon as If it enjoyed the operation.
No long, graceful curls Come from
this boring. but small, crisp shavings
that are removed as fast as they accu-
nulate In order that the boring tools
work shall not be interfered with.
The bit is going into the steel at the
rate of three:eights of an inch for ev-
cry turn of the cannon, and it is maxi
ing a round hole almost large enough
for a boy to put his head in--five
aud three quarters inches in dame
ter. As the round hole grows deeper
the heavy bar, on which the bit is
fastened, advances into the cannon
steadily, moved by number of
wheels and screws that form part Of
the iathes
must not lose sight of the shay
ings, the little ones that come from
the inside. and the long. spiraIly
twisted ones that are turned from
the outside of the cannon. A mill.
tary looking man. standing near the
lathe, does not lose sight of these
shayings or trimmings, either. This
mans business is to carefully inspect
the borings and trimmings. That is
what he is paid to do. Uncle Sam
pays him and expects him to earn his
salary. The cannon is being made
for Uncle Sam, and he intends to find
out all its qualities, whether good or
bad. So the man eyes the borings
carefully. Now. if with plane or
your knife blade, you will cut thin
shaving from a hit of wood, it will
show any little flaw existing in the
wood from which it was sliced. The
tiniest knot hole or crack will show
In the shaving much more plainly
than in the wood itself.
So it is with a lannon's shaving.
1t is dreadful tell tale, and the fault
finding man beside the gun knows
this perfectly well. He examines
the spiral turning. or the little piece
of boring, and fluids no evidence of a
flaw or crack. The long spiral strip
is as smooth as glass and as glossy as
your sisters curls.
Into the solid steel the hog.nosed
bit roots its way, until it is in so far
that a little electric light must bear
it company, to show the Workmen
how matters are progressing in the
heart of the cannon. After eighteen
days of steady boring the bit lets day
light into tine bore of the cannon by
emerging at the other Tor larger
end. seventeen feet aWay.-,&. Nich.

THE NEWBERRY HERALD AND NEWS THURSDAY OCTOBER $780,

The census Of 100 showed only
thirteen cities with more than 5000
and rome with more than 10000
inhabitants. In 1880 there were
949 cities exceeding 5000, 10 ex-
ceeding 10000, 20 exceeding 100000.
The ratio of persons living in cities
was in 1870, 33 to every 100, in
1850, 225. This significant growth
is shown by the census of 1890. We
select only a few cities by the way
of illustration, where English Lu-
theran missions have been planted
by the Committee. Duluth has
grown from 1874 to city Of $4,000
inhabitants il ten years. Milwau-

Can Monkeys TALK?
The Question Te>,e,. II the Smithsonian
Institute.
" asLiugton Post.

Can monkeys talk? The question
was made few days ago, 50 4 Star re-
porter learned the subject OF what was
probably The funniest scientific expert
ment ever conducted by the Sn.thSo-
nian Institution. Professor Garner,
one Of the honorary cur"torS, had
charge OF the test.
The conversational! power of n!an-
keys has for wears past been 4 special
bobby Of Professor Carriers, and it oc-
Cured to him that j: would &c Il good
idea to take GoWn some Of their re-
marks by means Of tic graphophon".
Accordingly, he procure" Il portable
Instrument and secured the co-"pera-
ton Of aboGt Il dozen otlcr lncn OF sci
ence attached 10 that learned establish
nent in the carrying cut Of this re-
markab!e trial. II WAS Il great sigh,
to behold the group Of eminent doc
tors and professors gathered il front Of
the monkey cage 1t The XrD III Il" rear
OF the Smithsonian building seriously )
awaiting results, while Professor Gar
ner ground away at the hand graphic
phone With its crank attachment, and
the keeper Of the animals pnked the
monkeys up with stick to make then!
talk.
One monkey was tame and the other
one wild. The wild one could not be
induced 10y the most vigorous poking
to make any remarks worth mention
ing. An occasional scream Of rage was
all that could be elected from him.
The tame monkey did nothing but
chatter and gibber most unintelligibiy
as it seemed to the audience, but Prot.
Garner was inclined to think that this
was conversation worth taking down,
and so he ground away vigorously ut
his instrument, using up a half dozen
cylinders in obtaining the records he
desired. \ big tin horn attached to
the graphaphone was inserted through
the door of the monkey cage during
the performance.
Prof. Garner was very far from ini-
agining that he would be able 10
understand this monkey talk when re-
peated to him by the machine. But
his notion was to record the remarks
of one monkey and grind them out
through the horn for the benefit OF
the other monkey, so as to observe
what sort Of responses the second one
would make. T. comparing the orig
nal observations and the replies he
hoped to get some few clues that would
eventually enable him 10 translate tile
monkey language.
Unfortunately the wild monkey
would only scream angrily. and thus
the experiment was iii measure q
failure, though the professor is con-
WINGED that he has obtained on his
cylinders some really useful siEian
observations, il ne could only tell what
they We're about. This is, III fact, the
only difficulty remaining, and he does
not despair.

Growth of a Wooden Caterpillar

grows simultaneously into the body Of
Il vegetable fungus, the Sph'cria RcJ-
crt%W, fixes itself directly on lis neck,
takes root, and grows, like diminu-
tive bulrusll, from six to ton inches
high, without leaves, and with dark

earth over the caterpillar, which it eN-
actiy fills in every part, without alter
ing It's form in the slightest degree, but
simply substituting 4 vegetable sub
stance for an animal substance. As
soon rs this process is completed, both
the caterpillar and fungus die, and Ee-
come drE and hard, but without
shrivcIing at all. The thing is then =
wooden caterpillar, so to say, with i
wooden bulrush standing up from its
neck. Inpicr mdche, perhaps, would
better describe it than wood. 1t can
be taken out of the ground entire, and
preserved for any time. Where the
;tw2to is found many specimens can lie
obtained. 1t is light green when
alive, and the Maoris eat it in its soft
state, when it resembles marrow.
When dry, they powder it for use as
flesh dye in tattooing.
1t is certain that the caterpillar and
fungus were made for each other, as the;

Which Will You Take?
Saturday Evening Call. !

Entering the office of a well-known
merchant, I lifted my eyes and found
myself confronted with the brightest
and most thrilling temperance lecture
I ever steered myself against in the
whole course Of my life. 1t was an in
scription marked with pen on the
back of a postal card nailed to desk
The inscription read as follows

HOME OR HE'LL?

HOME OR HE'LL:
"Where did you get that, and what
did you nail it up there for?" asked
the merchant.
II wrote that myselfand nailed it up
there" was his reply; land I will tell
you the story of that card. Some time
ago I found myself falling into the
drinking habit. I would run out once
in while with visiting customer or
at the invitation of travelling man, or
on every slight occasion that offered.
I soon found that my business faculties
were becoming dulled, that my-stom-
ach was continually out Of sorts, my
appetite failing, and constant craving
for alchoholic stilnulants becoming
dominant. saw tears in the eyes of
my wife, wonder depicted in the faces
ofmy children, and then I took long
look ahead.
Zone day I sat down at this desk
and half unconsciously wrote the in
scription on that card. On looking at
it upon its completion, its awful reve
lation burst upon me like flash. 7
nailed it up there and read it over a
hundred times that afternoon. That
night I went home sober, and / have
not touched drop Of liquor since. You
see how startling is its ALTERATION.
Now l have no literary proclivities,
and I regard that card as an lnspira-
ton. 1t speaks out three solemn warn
ings every time look at it. The first
is voice from the altar, the second
from the cradle, and the third and last
from"
Here my friends earnestness deep
ened into a solemn shaking of the
head, and with that he resumed his
work.
I don't think l violate his confidence
by repeating the story Of that card. In
fact, if it should lead to the writing of
similar cards to adorn other desks, I
think he will be immeasurably graft
fed.
