Beccher Was often Afraid.

To one always ready to give so much
zeal and courage to any cause which
claimed his special service, 1t was
singular to note how distrustful Mr.
Beecher was OF his ability to succeed,
writes Mrs. Henry Ward Beech er
in the memoirs of her husband in the
December Ladies' Home Journal.
In his earlier work, this lack of con-
fidence in himself was sometimes
painful until be rose to speak. But
generally the moment he stepped up.
on the platform all thoughts of him
self disappeared.
Many times when going to speak
on a subject of special interest which
L greatly desired to hear, he would
say. cob! don't go! 1 am sure am

and troubled lest he should fail,

came home cheerful, and would say,
II had great liberty; now l wish you
had gone. The audience appeared
greatly interested and very appreciat.

FAR IN THE SOUTH.

Far in the south the redwings hear, and speed
To answer Natures far heard northern cry,
Swift from the fields they gather, and take on
The burden of journey. Young and old
Swing upward to the sun, as if the need
OF earth and of her comfort were gone by
And guided by the star of memory run
Upon the trembling air. If, losing hold
With weary wing, one settle to the land,
If sideways gancing from the flight, one see
A fairer light than hope; or faltering,
Another answer to the white command
Hurled upward from the gun-yet joyfully
The happy fight speeds onward with the
spring.

Governor Evarlsto MaderO is one of
the most liberal governors that MeXi.
co ever had. He has done more for
the cause of missions in this coutry
than any man in the republic. He
gave the Madero institute in Saltillo
TO the Baptist missionaries, and he
contributes annually thousands of
dollars towards their support. Since
he retired from the gOvernorship he
mas resided on his hacienda near
Parras, where he devotes his time to
the cultivation of the grape, fruit and
the manufacture of wines and bran
dies.
On Wednesday night the Rev. w.
d. Powell left for Jackson, Tenn. He
was accompanied from here by Fer
nando Ancira and Rogue Rodriguez,

of Governor Madera's sons, whom he
was to take with him for the purpose
of entering the four young men in the
