man, of Maryland, for himself and family,
has made this place sort of national head
quarters for the Democratic leaders. The
little giant of Maryland is regarded as
sort of lion among the throng of politi-
clans here, and with his strikingly hand
some face he is greatly admired by the la
dies as well. He has been so much talked
about during the past few months in the
newspapers as a wonderful tactician,
owing to his successful fight in the Senate
on behalf of the Democrats against
the federal election bill, that every
body here manifests great interest in
the senator and wants to see him. Then
as he is regarded as a very available can
didate for the presidency, the minor poll
ticians are all seeking to curry favor with
him. Since he has been here he has
maintained his record as a silent man.
Senator German is always polite and even
gracious to the most humble of those who
come in contact with him, but he prefers
to listen while other people do the talking.
The senator has two daughters and one

Machine Received.

Mine Inspector Stein has received one of
the Shaw mine machines, used for detect
ing and measuring gas in air currents,
which he has put up in his Office for expert
menting and inspection, The machine is
costly, the price being $500. 1t is very
much like a pair of delicate scales and is
covered by a glass case Is inches high by 2
feet square. 1t differs from ordinary scales
in that it measures the quantity instead of
weighing it. The machine is made of brass
and composition and will measure to the
one thousandth part OF an inch. 1t is not
to be taken into the mines. Ii remains in
the office of the mine inspector. This
official gathers the gas by means of rubber
baga, which have a pumping apparatus at
tached. This can be pushed up in the hole
where the gas is the lightest and the bag
filled. The idea of the machines tests is to
find out how near to the explosive point the
air current is charged with gas.

VOYAGE OF LIFE"
SEVENTH SERMON ON THE SUB
JEOT IN THE M. E. CHURCH.
THE SHAW MINING MACHINE.
Mine Inspector Stein Has One in
His Omce-What Becomes of
the Garbage2-An Exciting
Game Of Base Ball.

The seventh of the series of sermons on
the Voyage of Life was delivered last
night IN the M. E. church. The text was
from Prov. 1920: HE that walketh with
wise men shall be wise, but a companion of
fools shall be destroyed" The subject was
The Crew. An account was given of
the number of men required to navigate
our large steamships and the duties they
are required to perform. The duties and
responsibilities of the captain and his mates
we're explained. Then came the engineers
and fremen, of which there are about two
hundred. Over fifty furnaces need to be
fed with coal at the rate of three hundred
tons a day. The fire rooms look more like
the accounts of the bottomless pit than any
thing else he had seen. 1t is a shame that
better provision is not made for the comfort
of the fremen. He had seen them dragged
more dead than alive from their quarters.
Then there are the stewards, cooks, etc,
who have charge of the culinary and sani-
tary arrangements. They number over a
hundred, so that the whole crew musters a
little army of about four hundred.
AS the safety of the ship and welfare of
the passengers depend upon the skill and
care of the crew, so the welfare Of the
mariners on the sea of life depends much
upon the character of their social crew
their companions. ''The companions of
fools shall be destroyed" Men are judged
by the company they keep, and very justly
so. They are no better than their compan-
ions, or they would not associate with them.
We cannot prevent birds flying over our
heads, but we can prevent them from build
ing their nests in our hair. So while we
cannot avoid contact, altogether, with evil
men we can refuse to receive them into our
bosom. We need to guard our reputation
as we'll as our character, or our usefulness is
at an end. We should, therefore, avoid
those of questionable or unsavory reputs-
ton. The condition Of the wives of
irreverent, profane, leoherous and drunken
men was described and attention called to
the fact that multitudes of marriageable
girls are being led to such a slaughter be-
cause they wink at lax morals and easy
virtue and tipping habits in the young
men from whom they receive attentions.
Caesars wife must be immaculate or suffer
eternal ostracism but Caesar himself may be
spotted all over with leshly lusts and social
nastiness and be coddled for it. No young
woman has any guarantee that she will
not become a d|runkard's wife unl5ss she
demands as the price Of her earliest friend
ship total abstinence from all that can
intoxicate. The sermon, which occupied an
hour in delivery, was listened TO with the
closest attention by a crowded house. The
subject next Sunday night will be THE
Pastimes."
