THE MAGAZINES.

The October Century will contain frontis-
piece portrait of Rudyard Kipling and an article
on his work by Edmund Gosss. Mr.. Gosse says
that Kipling was born In Bombay in Christmas
week. 1866 and is therefore only in his twenty
sixth year.
Mrs. Mary Hallock Foote, who first came be-
fore the public an illustrator, and later the
author of "The Led-Horse Claim" and other
novels of Western life, has written a new story
which will be one of the serial features OF the
coming year of The Century. Mrs. Foote has
chosen field unhaekneyed in fiction, the irriga-
ton schemes of the great West. "The Chosen
Valley" will be illustrated by the author.
In its November number the Cosmopolitan will
publish series of letters written by General w.
T. Sherman to one OF his young daughters, be-
tween the years 1859 and 1858, and covering most
of the important events OF the war Of secession.
These letters present graphic pictures OF a great
soldier amid some of the stirring scenes in
which he was giant figure, and in them the
patriotic spirit OF the federal general is seen to
have been most attrsctiyely tempered by a
strong affection for the Southern people. The
fraternal feeling which giows in these letters Is
in refres hing contrast 10 the sectional bitterness
which characterized the period, and they viii
constitute an interesting and important contri-
button TO the literature OF the war.

Ben Butler so far as it is completed assert that

Religious Awakening.
Rev. Alfred Inwood. at the Battery street
Methodist Episcopal church yesterday morning,
predicted an early and far reaching religious
revival. Already" he said, "the church saw
the signs of this awakening.

every crisis Of Old Testament history; so in the

Mr.. Inwood showed that there was also re.

coming revival by making decision for God

"BE THOU STRONG"
Tho Lesson ENFORCED by Bishop Pad.
dock at st. Marks Church.


Bishop John A. Paddock, of Tacoma, con-
Quoted the services in St Marks church yester-
day. There was large ATTENDANCE at both serv-
Ices. In the morning the bishop preached a
farcibie sermon from the text, "Be thou strong
therefore, and show myself a man; and keep
the charge OF the Lord thy God, to walk in HIS
ways, to keep His statutes, and His command
ments, and His judgments and His testimonies,
mit Is written in the laws of Moses, that thou
nayest prosper in all that thou doest, and
vhithersoever thou turnest thyself." l. Kings,
H,22
The preacher called attention to the fact that
these words were spoken by David, as he was on
h1deathbed, and were intended as the Last
words OF counsel to David's great and wise son,
solomon, who was to succeed to the throne of
krse- David was a man whose words were
worthy OF more than passing attention. He had
led an eventful life, and had experienced all OF
JOY or sorrow, OF humility and power that the
world could offer. He had begun as a shepherd
boy tending the hocks on the lonely hills. He
had been chosen by the Lord to slay the PILLS.
tine giant, Goliath, the enemy of Israel; he had
passed then into the royal court as one of the
generals of King Saul Later David himself had
been king, great In war and in pesce--a bard
and poet as well Such was the career of the
man who spoke the words OF the text
he had urged his son to be strong and show
himself q man, aud at the same time to walk in
the ways OF the Lord. Ii was evident then that
David thought strong man could be deyout
and religious. This view, unhappily, Is moi held
BY some men of today, who say that religion is q
matter for women and children, and that men
have other matters to occupy their attention.
The bishop then went on TO show that moth
Ing Is more conducive to strength OF purpose
and manliness of character than heed to religion
and its precepts. The devout man In impelled
to cultivate fxity OF purpose, the distinguishing
trait OF the man OF force. A devout man lays
aside all the sensual, trifing and unworthy
thoughts IN order to fix his mind on the highest
things which can occupy the human intellect
He trains himself in kindliness. generosity and
bravery, the very attributes of the strong man.
In closing, Bishop Paddock called attention to
the life of St. Augustine. He had spent his early
years In a round of pleasure and dissipation
One day Ms he was thinking OF his wasted past
he CHANGED to come across q manuscript con-
tanning the epistle with the words: "Put on the
whole armor OF Christ" From that time Angus
tine was q changed man. He became deeply re-
lgious. and wrote the wonderful words which
still form an important part of the literature OF
the world.
Yesterday afternoon there was a harvest home

NIonk.ys as Coin fosters.

1t is said that the great ape of Siam
is in great request among the Siamese
merchants as cashiers in their counting
houses. Vast quantities of base coins
are known to be in circulation in Siam,
and, according to advices from that
scorched.up little oriental kingdom, no
living human can discriminate between
the good and bad coinage with as much
accuracy as these apes. These monkey
cashiers possess the faculty of distin-
gushing the rude Siamese counterfeits
in such an extraordinary degree that no
trained banker can compete with them
in their unique avocation. In plying
his trade. the ape cashier meditatively
puts each coin presented to him in his
mouth aud tests it with grave delibera-
.tion. From two to five seconds is all
the time this intelligent animal requires
in making up his decision. If the coin
is all right it is carefully deposited in
the proper receptacle; if base it is
thrown violently to the floor, while the
coin tester makes known his displeas-
ure at being presented with the coun-
te-feit by giving vent 10 much angry
chattering. Lo.iis Republic.
