TALKS ON PARIS.
Rev. r. II. Anderson, of the McAu Mission
4r

Rev. r. ri. Anderson, of the McAu mission
Speaks in Allegheny.
Rev. T. II. Anderson, who for eight years
has been working in the McAn Mission,
Paris, preached in the North Avenue Ii. E.
c hurch last night. His sermon was
more in the form of a talk on his work in
Paris. He cited many instances of where
even in that highly cultured city the Bible
was unknown. He said 1t was customary for
people to come to him and ask who was the
author of the Testament and when 1t was
first published. He told of one incident OF a
Partisan who had searched through SO book
stores in Paris and could not find Bible on
sale.
Rev. Anderson then told the people how
badly funds were needed TO carry on the
work and asked for aid. Blank cards were
passed around with the request that they be
filled out with the amount the giver could
spare. A large number of cards were taken,
and also a basket collection.

b. d o. Freight Crews Instructed TO Run to
Bennett Station Hereafter.
Beginning to-day, the Baltimore and
Ohio freight crews instead of stopping at
Laughlin station and transferring Western
traffic to the Junction shifters, will run
over the road to Bennett station on the
Pittsburg and Western. This is the first
real indication that the Junction and Pitts
burg and Western roads have been merged
into the Baltimore and Ohio system. Ben
nett hereafter will be the end of the Pitts
burg division. From this time forth the
Western freight over the Baltimore and
Ohio will be run to Chicago through P tits
burg.
A large force of men has been to work
ballasting the Pittsburg and Western be-
tween Newcastle and Akron. During the
winter 1000 tons of cinder were dumped on
this section of the road. If the work of
making the tracks solid progresses as rap
idly as the engineers think, Third Vice
President Lord, hopes to have the fast pas
senger trains running over the new main
line by June 1.

A Mother Objects to a verdic..

Mrs. Robert Dunseatt, of Manchester,
whose little boy was recently killed under
an electric car, takes exceptions to the ver-

some mothers may have been careless she
was most particular, and that the motorman
neither rang the bell nor slackened the speed
of the car, although it was on an upgrade.

nindoo Legend of Adam and Eve.

Hindoo Legend of Adam and Eve.
The Hindoo legend Of Adam and Eve
in substance is as follows:
In the beginning God created Adima,
the first man, and Heva, tho first wom-
an, which completed life. He placed
them on the Island Of Ceylon and COM
manded them never to quit their place
Of abode, but to remain and propagate
their kind. In the course of time in
wandering over the island they saw
most beautiful land connected with
theirs by lofty peaks and ragged rocks.
The land beyond was most beauteous to
behold, being covered with stately trees
whose branches hung with fruits of
every variety. Many colored birds fit
ted from bough to bough and made a
perfect din of ever changing music.
Adima (note that this is directly oppo-
site to our Biblical account) tempted
and induced Heva to violate the COM
mand of the Creator and accompany
him to the paradise across the rocky
peaks.
When they had crossed the narrow
neck Of land which connected their is
land heaven with the mainland, they
heard loud, cracking noise and looked
around just in time to see the isthmus
break in two and sink beneath the
sraters Of the ocean. When It was main.
that their way back to their island para
disc had been cut off they turned their
attention to their new home and found
1t o land Of sand, thorns, rocks and
brambles, its supposed beauty having
been but mirage raised by Rakokasos,
the spirit of evil, to tempt them to DISC
bedience. For this act they were doomed
to perpetual labor and final death. st,

Dangerous Champagne.

The well known epicurean taste OF
the French people seems to have driven
some of them to their wits end in order
to satisfy the appetite in an inexpensive
manner. In 1862 a Frenchman invented
and obtained patent on a process for
making sparkling wine or champagne
ct price bringing it within the reach
Of all. His process is to take a bottle Of
ordinary still wine and pour into it a
certain quantity of Dutch bronze
powder" The waiter then Is instructed
TO shake the bottle violently before serv-
ing it to the customer. This, the in
ventor says, twill disturb the brilliant
particles Of powder, causing them to cir
culate through the wine, giving 1t the
appearance Of q high grade sparkling
wine.D Dutch bronze Is chemically
known as bimuriate Of stannan, and IS
poisonous. It Is that substance ID nlasave

a Plea for the Roadside 1yeeds.

A Plea for the Roadside Weeds.
The foe Of natural grace and beauty
Is the road commissioner, whose mistak-
en- zeal is allowed annually to remove
the grass which seeks to soften the dusty
outline Of the road along its untrodden
borders and cutters. This is an expen-
sive process and wholly unnecessary,
since adding to the dust capacity of the
street is the only service it accompanies,
the short, thick turf affording no OBJ
Btruction to carriage wheels. This is
called cleaning up" the street, when,
as matter of fact, it only adds to it's
dirt.
But worse phase of the cleaning up
mania is apparent when the jealous
commissioner proceeds to remove from
the banks of the highway what he terms
weeds-namely, the graceful mantle of
vegetation with which nature ever
seeks to conceal the wounds which man
has made. 1t is interesting to watch
the process by which the devastations Of
the road cutter are tempered to the eye
by the beautiful natural screen of vines
and heritage, which, IL let alone; will
soon cover the rough unsightly place
with a drapery Of verdure when the
reckless workman has left behind him d
shorn and barren waste.
After his inroads banks of sand and
gravel are left on each side of the wide
road, from which every spear Of grass
has been banished, the fences stand up
stiff and stark, the rocks protrude from
the soil, the trees which cannot be felled
have their lower branches rudely cut
away, so that their trunks are gaunt and
unsightly, stumps are left along the
edges Of the fields and the soft turf is
replaced by sandy slopes to be quilted by
the rain.
Without wasting an hour nature be-
gins her gentle but tireless work Of
Transforming these ruins into beauty

HEAVY FLOODS.
Great Loss of Life Reported from the
South.

ITO BE CONTINUED

Great Loss of Life Reported from the
South.
MOBILE, Ala, April 1.-THE Tombig-
bee river has not since 1847 had so sud-
den and great flood as at present. The
farmers on the river were wholly unpre-
pared, and from Columbus, Miss, to Full
ten, the loss Of hogs, cattle, mules and
cotton has been unprecedented, much
fencing has been swept away and many
persons rendered destitute.
A great deal of land planted in corn
and cotton is under water; mules, horses
and cattle are seen daily floating down
the river. About eighteen feet additional
rise is expected.
Reports of heavy loss of life come from
Columbia, Miss, on the Bigbee.
BIRMINGHAM. Ala April 11.-Rain has
set in again and much damage will be
done by the floods. No trains have run
to Memphis ever the Kansas City, Mem
phis and Birmingham road for week.
In one place the road is washed out for
half mile, and trains cannot be run for
many days yet. In Marion county large
iron bridges across the creeks and rivers
were swept away.
Near Pearsons Mill John Livingston
and two children, while crossing the creek
in wagon, were swept away and
drowned. Eight miles south Of Carbon
Hill two women were drowned. A man
from Columbus, Miss, says twenty-five
families are believed to have persisted by
the floods around that place. Near Green
wood 1900 feet Of the Georgia Pacific
track were washed away. At Gabsden,
Ala, the Cross river is forty feet above
low-water mark, and hundreds of acres
south of the town are submerged. Many
RATS of timber have been lost and dam
aged, amounting to thousands of dollars.
COLUMBUS, Miss, April News just
obtained from points below, where the
country is flat and devoid of hills, thus
giving no refuge to the panic-stricken ne
groes, indicates that the loss by the flood
is greater than at first reported.
1t may therefore be expected that the
latter information will show that at least
100 negroes have been drowned in this
county alone. The waters have receded
about seven feet and continue to fall
slowly tonight. Most of the country
bridges have been swept away, and it will
be weeks before regular traffic will be re.
sumed. The Mobile. and Ohio railroad
has three work trains with. 200 men on
the road between here and Artesia A
cold rain has fallen almost continually
since last night, which doubtless pre-
vents the water from going down more
rapidly.

NOT AT ALL.

Now it is said that JUDGE GRESHAM, a
disgruntled republican politician, is to be
the peoples party nominee for president,
with POLK for a second place. POLK
wants first place himself, and when it
comes down to the scratch he is about
the only man who will have TWIN
stOn Sentinel.
JUDGE GRESHAM was never politician.
He is lawyer of undoubted ability-a
man who has refused to be dishonest.
As member Of the railway commits
sion he stood between the people and the
corporations. He is pure, able and hon
est
While it would be too bad to see such
a man running with POLK, at the same
time he would indeed be the peoples
candidate if he would consent to run.

THE TALK is GENERAL.

1t i. generally talked these days that
SQUIRE Angler will be the man for
mayor another term.
AS it is simply tussle between CHRIS
TAN and Angler, and as no politics
seem to enter into the business, Angler,
because Of his policy of progression as
against CHRISTIAN, who has opposed
school bonds and other public improve
ments, as we are told, will be in the lead
to the end.
And after all is said there is no reason
why Angler should be thrown over
board
He is an old man and a good man, and
he wants the Office, and his record has
been as good as CHRISTIAN could posi-
bly, MAKE, and so the general verdict is
that CHRISTIAN should pull in his banner
and not unfurl it just now.
Angler will certainly get the votes of
the young men and the old men, and this
should end it,
There is no use TO change when there
is no reason for changing.
OF course if there was a valid reason
all would be different, but there is 40
reason, even real or imaginary.

Tobacco Market.
rapidly.

Notwithstanding the harsh weather
the tobacco sales continued until 4
o'clock with no abatement in prices,
all grades taken freely at full figures
We expect full breaks to-day. The far
mers seem to be very intent on seeling
and every indication at present goes to
say the crop will be all sold at an earlier
day than former years. The bulk Of the
tobacco now in farmers hands will be
sold in the months of May and June. OF
course the receipts will continue suffi-
Gent to keep up the sales every day, but
We do not expect heavy receipts after the
month of June, provided we have the
usual May and June seasons for handling
leaf. We still hold to what we first said
this crop will not run much above or
fall much below seventy per cent of an
average crop.
