Saving Piles Under Water.

The 100 piles driven in a space of 28 feet square for the foundation of the pivot pier for the swing span of the Light street bridge were cut off 15 feet 6 inches below mean; low tide. The actual time in cutting, moving machine and getting pile heads out of the way was seven hours and thrty-one minutes The shortest time consumed in saving off one pile was five seconds. The ma chinery for the submarine saw attached to the pile driver was designed by John w. Bollman, engineer in charge, and worked to perfection. The diameter of the circular saw was 54 inches, and it was run at the rate of 426 revolutions per minute, causing the cutting edge to travel over 5000 feet per minute.-Al- bany Express

A BLOODY PORTRAIT OF JESUS.

Christ Wiped His Brow with Cloth
 and His Likeness was Fixed Thereon.
 Early in the year 705 A. D., John VII, at that time pope of Rome, pub lished 8 letter in which he made the startling announcement that he had just deposited in the Church of St. Maria Maggiore, in the imperial citys the only authentic portrait of Jesus in existence; it was the bloody likeness of the Saviour, which was miraculously imprinted on a piece of linen which St. Veronica had received from the hands of Jesus himself. The story of St. Veronica and the bloody portrait, ac- cording to Eusebius, is as follows:
 Veronica was {. resident of Jerusalem during the ministry of Jesus, and was an unquestioning believer in his divine origin. When the verdict of the coun- cil was announced, when it was known throughout Jerusalem that Jesus was to suffer the extreme penalty for the crime of sedition, Veronica refused to bc comforted, and neither slept nor took food until after the trying ordeal had passed.
 On the morning of the crucifixion this pious lady stationed herself on the road over which Jesus would be obliged to pass on his way to Golgotha. Soon the procession came in sight led by the Saviour bearing that awful bur den-the cross upon which he was to suffer death. Veronicas heartstrings were rent with sy.,pathy when she be- held the humiliating spectacle. AS the procession came nearer she saw that the terrible load under which the Mas ter was laboring had caused a bloody sweat to ooze out all over his face and neck
 Hastily removing q cloth that she wore wound about her head, she hand ed it to Jesus that he might wipe off the blood and sweat which was now running down his face. When she re- ceived it back striking likeness of the divine features was imprinted upon the cloth. This was the bloody portrait of Jesus mentioned in the let ter of John VIIin 7O5. The subsequent history of the miraculous imprint seems to be lost.--St. Louis Republic.

Rebuking Pomposity.

Dr. Barrowby was canvassing for the post of one of the physicians to Bar tholomew's hospital. With view to obtaining the vote of a certain influen- tial grocer he called upon him and found him bursting with importance as he strutted up and down his shop. With mixture of insolent patronage and insulting familiarity he slowly ap- preached the doctor and said, Well, my friend. what is your business9
 Barrowby paused, looked him straight in the face, and said, ''I want pound of plums."
 Greatly confused, the grocer put up the plums, whereupon the doctor put thexD in his pocket and marched of without asking him for his vote.-Lon- don Tit-RitS

Great Britain's Postoface Savings Ban

Great Britain's Postofice Savings Bank.
 The postofice savings bank system in Great Britain was inaugurated on Sept. 16, 1861, by the opening in Eng land and Wales of 8O1 postal savings offices. The system was extended to Ireland and Scotland one year later. These have been the means of induc- ing many poor people to open accounts. Deposits of one shilling and upward are received, subject to limits of ESQ in one year and f15O in all, exclusive of interest, at the rate of f2 los. @ 1-2 per cent.) per annum. Pennies may be saved by the use of postage stamp sav- ings slips, which, when they bear twelve stamps, are accepted by the postofice as shilling deposit. The total number of accounts opened at the end of 1890 was 4, 5o7, s09, and the amount then standing to the credit of the depositors, including interest, was just short of 463, 100000. The increase of deposits in 1890 over the previous year was 34, 448, ,226.-New York Re cordsr.

 And he kneels and he says, Put on my shoulders all the sorrows and all the sins" And conscious of my own sins, first, I take them and put them on the shoulders of the Son of God. l say, "Canst thou bear any more, O Christi" He says, "Yea, more." And I gather up the sins of all those who serve at these altars, the officers of the church of Jesus Christi gather up all their sins and put them on Christ's shoulders and say. "Canst thou bear any more2" He says, Yea, more." Then I gather up all the sins of hun dred people in this house and put them on the shoulders of Christ and l say, "Canst thou bear moreW He says, ''Yea, more." And gather up all the sins of this assembly and put them on the shoulders of the Son of God and l say. "Canst thou bear them2" "Yea,"s he says, ''more!" But he is departing. Clear the way for him, the Son of God. Open the door and let him pass out. He is car rying our sins and bearing them away. We shall never see them again. He throws them down into the abysm, and you hear the long reverberating echo of their fall. ''On him the Lord hath laid the iniquity of us an." Will you let him take away your sins today, or do you say, "I will take charge of them myself, will fight my own battles, I will risk eternity on my own accountr A clergyman said in his pulpit one Sab bath, Before next Saturday night one of this audience will have passed out of life." A gentleman said to another seated next to him, 1T don't believe it; mean to watch, and if it doesn't como true by next Saturday night shall tell that clergyman his falsehood." The man seated next to him said, Perhaps it will be yourself" "Oh, mo-" the other replied, II shall live to be an old man" That night he breathed his last
 Today the Saviour calls. All may come God never pushes a man of. God never destroys anybody. The man jumps off. It is suicide-soul suicide if the man perishes, for the invitation is. "Whosoever will, let him come." Whosoever, whosoever, whosoever. In this day of merciful visitation, while many are coming into the kingdom of God, join the procession heavenward. Seated among us during a service was a man who came in and said, "I don't know that there is any God" !" That was on Friday night. I said, l "We will kneel down and find out
 whether there is any God" And in the second seat from the pulpit we
 knelt. He said "I have found him.
 There is a God, Q pardoning God. I
 feel him here" He knelt in the dark
 ness of sin. He arose two minutes af-
 terward in the liberty of the Gospel;
 while another sitting under the gallery
 on Friday night said, My opportunity
 is gone; last week I might have been
 saved, not now; the door is shut" :"
 And another from the very midst of
 the meeting during the week, rushed
 out of the front door of the Tabernacle,
 saying, ''I am lost man." Behold l
 the Lamb of God who taketh away
 the sins of the world" ''Now is the
 accepted time Now is the day of sal
 vation." "It is appointed unto all men
