Henry Ward Beecher's Bible.

On the table of a friend saw re-
Gently copy of the Bible which once
belonged to Henry Ward Beecher and
lay on the desk in the great preachers
study, says writer in the N. Y. Press.
1t is a small volume. and from thein-
scription had been presented to him by
a friend. There are two silken book
marks run through the leaves, and on
the pages they separate are two small
pencil marks around two passages OF
Scripture. Nowhere else in the book
are there any pencil marks about pas
sages, and these two verses seem to
have had some special attention from
the eminent divine. The first is the be-
ginning of the Thirty-second Psalm. as
follows:
BLESSED is he whose transgression
is forgiven, whose sin is covered"
The other is the eighth verse of the
thirtieth chapter of Jeremiah, and
reads:
For it shall come to pass in that
day, saith the Lord of Hosts, that /
will break this yoke from off thy neck
and will burst thy bonds, and strangers
shall no more serve themselves of
him."

personal effects with him on his journey

call them, is unknown abroad. and the trav-
eler must be constantly looking after his
effects and must personally see that they
are put on or taken off the train in accord

travellers will do well TO look closely after
their trunks. and especially in crossing
frontiers they must see that their luggage
is examined and again put on the train.

My experience Of railway travel in Eu-
rope, which. by the way. has been quite &
tcusiye and varied, has firmly convinced me
that 10 railway company in the United
States could run trains on the European
plan and retain its charter. The whole syS-
ten throughout Europe seems to NE to be
simply a system OF barbaTiSm that SmackS
strongly of the middle ages, ana viii tell
my readers plainly why think 50.
In the first place, no one IS safe IN the
small compartments OF their railway con-
VeTanceS which we would call cars, but
which they denominate carriages" In one
of these little compartments You are left
alone with several other strangers. perhaps
only two or three and often but oAc. Now
thar one may be a thief, q lunaJiC, or even
murderer, with the others as his confeder-
atcS. Under such conditions. then, YOU are
shut up in a miserable, detestable box for
ali hour or more, while the train, rolling
and laundering along, browns any cries
that You may make in case you should be
attacked. The signal bell Is out of reach,
and if YOU are unarmed or doze for a mo-
ment you are quite at the mercy Of any vii
lain whom the railway company may have
forced you 10 unwillingly accept Us your
travelling companion.
Fortunately, the evil consequences are
not so great in Europe as they certainly
would be in the United States, for among
Europeans the criminal classes seem to be
less daring than with us. But even as il Is

and women at the risk of their honor.
Then compare the American and Eu-
ropean railway system as regards con-
veniences offered TO the travelling public. l
will pass over with simple reference what
travellers in our own country have long
since learned to consider as railway neces-
sites, hut which are absolutely unknown
on all European railways. I refer to ade
