Ostentntion ut Funerals,

1t is a sad commentary on a Christian
community, which takes that distinctive
title from a religion whose founder is
called the CONSIDER because his word
plucks the sting from death, that it sur
rounds death with every circumstance of
woe and gloom. The distinctive minis
try of the faith seems to fail at the very
point to which it is especially addressed.
The natural Christian tone at the burial
of the dead would seem to be the cheer
that springs from the thought of immor-
tality-a sublime hope, a tender resigna-
ton.
The Christian thought in that hour
should instinctively dwell upon the soul,
not upon the body, and the simplest and
most u~nostentatious rite of burial would
seem to be the most truly Christian. But
the ostentation of Christian funerals has
become so great that burial reform asso-
Citations are formed, both in this country
and in England, to relieve the poor of
the painful and needless cost which,
from mistaken respect for tho dead, they
will not spare so long as ostentation is
the custom. -George William Curtis in
Harper's.

Dynamite in a Railway Accident.

"a . AS0AAWoy GANNAAVhSs
1t has leaked out that one of the pas
sengers on the train wrecked had with
him twenty-five pounds of dynamite
enough, had it exploded, to have blown
the whole train into fragments. He
bought the stuff of a dealer in this city
and to insure greatest care carried the
package in his hands. He was in the
smoking a when the crash came, and
the next few moments were to him the
most terrifying of his life. When the
front end of the car lifted from the
wheels and tilted into the air he expect
ed it would follow the locomotive and
five cars ahead down the embankment
and the crash would explode the dyna.
mite, but he also realized his greatest
safety lay in keeping the dangerous COM
pound in his lap.
As quick as the "a stopped he made a
dash for the door, holding the package
at arms length. Once on the ground he
bolted for the woods, carefully laid the
dynamite on the ground and hurried
away. Then he breathed easier, for even
after the danger of being crushed in the
car was yer he feared the locomotive
boiler might explode and the conclusion
explode his burden. Without question
had the smoking car followed the others
into the ravine the dynamite would have
been ignited and not only caused much
loss Of life, but added another mysteri-
GUS feature to the affair. Naturally
every II would have connected the dy-
Mantle with the plans of the men en-
gagged in the act, as the owner of the
stuff would not be alive to tell his story.
