Journalism Under Difficulties.

'. An opposition editors life in Alaska is apparently not happy one. and the la test journals from that region make us wonder what sort of government they have out there anyway. A late issue of the Juneau City Mining Record fatly acknowledged the truth of a conten- porary's taunt that it did not dare to pub
 fish certain things, and explains thus:
 This to a certain extent is true, for the simple reason that for publishing certain facts threats have been made by a government officer of throwing oul newspaper outfit into the bay. Such proceedings are not pleasant to contem- plate when all we have in the world is invested in the outfit. Then, again, when we publish anything which does not set tie we'll on the stomachs of some officials we are arrested for libel and dragged 180 miles from our home and business at great expense, and placed under bonds to await the action of grand jury to ex- onerate us. If we had sufficient means to employ counsel and pay our fare to Sitka every month or six weeks many facts would be published which through our poverty we cannot afford to publish.

Indian Voters in Oklahom a.

The fact that the Indian can vote if he lives "in severalty" and pays taxes like any other citizen comes up at odd times to bother new states and terri tories. In 1859 it raised great row in Minnesota. The legislature having en- acted that Indians, whether on a reser- vation or not, who had taken certain steps in civilization, such as dressing like white men and wearing their hair ditto, should have the right to vote, ouo Cullen, an Indian agent, promptly cut the hair of all those in his charge. put brooches on them and marched them to the polls.
 Among the humors of the next cam paign was dialogue like this: "Heh, who cut your hair?'' Cullen & Co.," Now Judge John Dills and other law yers declare that the Indians in Oklaho- ma will be entitled to vote at the con- ing elections. They say the law pro- vides that Indians taking land in sever alty have the same right of franchise as any citizen, and if this opinion be good law the candidates will have $500 h. dians to buttonhole. If the Indians vote it is likely to make great difference in the congressional contest.

The face that used to light up the whole dwelling has vanished. The pattering of the other feet does not break up the loneliness. The wave has gone over your soul, and you have sometimes thought what you would tell him when he comes back; but then the thought has flashed upon you, he will never come back.
 An! my brother, my sister, Christ has sounded all that depth. Jesus of the bereft soul is here today. Behold him! He knows what it is to weep at the tomb. It seems to me as if all the storms of the worlds sorrow were com pressed into one sob, and that sob were uttered in two words, Jesus wept."
 l close my sermon with 8 doxology: Blessing and glory and honor and power be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb, forever. Amen and amen!"

Glycerin Instead of Sugar.

As an instance of the value of glycerin given internally may mention the em- ployment of glycerin by diabetic pa- tients to render more palatable different articles of diet ordinarily favored with sugar, which they of course are inter dicted from taking. This may appear 8 matter of little moment, but it really is not so. The necessary omission of all saccharine substances from the diet of persons suffering from diabetes makes it important to endeavor to relieve them from the feeling of monotony and dis like for food engendered by the rigid exclusion of all articles containing su gar.-Hygiene.

The Mud Hen.

I recently made acquaintance with the mud hen, of the grebe family. I had met her before, but had never had op- portunity to study her, and knowledge of her habits is exceedingly interesting. Here, under the trees on a little laguna's bank, have watched for hours as she has been swimming, diving, splashing, darting, futtering and spattering foam from her lifted wings and huddling her young up on the bank to eat grass in the sun. She has no beauty, but those tiny canary colored mud chickens, tipped with soft down, are rather pretty.-San Diego Cor. Christian Union.

A French Funeral Custom.

A funeral custom in vogue at present is for the mourners at the obsequies of some person of limited means to follow it is a very solemn vehicle, all black, with Omnibus Funeraire" inscribed in large silver letters on either side, so that the careless outsider shall not bounce into the midst of the mourning multi tude, but on the whole it seems to belit- tie the dignity of grief. However, the average Parisian does not specially en- joy funerals unless they are grand off cial functions, when the crowd that lines the streets has most unaffectedly good time and is unsparing of lively and frivolous criticisms on every detail of the affair.-Paris Letter.

oil Springs Long Since Abandoned.

Before the year 1900 oil springs were known to exist along the valley of Oil creek. The Indians of that section used the oil for medicinal and other purposes. Remains of wells and pits are to bs found in that vicinity. Some of these have been cribbed, the timber showing the marks of edged tools, and are sunk to the depth of twenty feet or more. In these pits and wells, which are now nearly all filled up, trees over several hundred years old have been discovered growing. The Indians do not know who dug these wells, and the presumption is that they were dug by 8 prehistoric race.-Intefview in Chicago Tribune.

want to show you this morning one who had worse pains in the head than you have ever had, whose back was scourged, who was wounded in the hands and wounded in the feet, and sui fered all over; and I want that example to make you more enduring in your suf- fering, and to make you say, Father, not my will, but thine be done." You never have had any bodily pain, and you will never have any bodily pain that equaled Christ's torture. Ut be- hoved Christ to suffer-" that he might show you how physically to suffer.
 Some of you are persecuted. There are those who hate you. They criticise you. They would be glad to see you stumble and fall. They have done un- accountable meannesses toward you. Sometimes you feel angry. You feel as if you would like to retort. Stop! Look at the closed lips, look at the still hand, look at the beautiful demeanor of your Lord. Struck, not striking back again. Oh, if you could only appreciate what he en- dured in the way of persecution you never would complain of persecution. The words of Christ would be your words, Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; but if not, thy will be done." "It beloved Christ to suffer- persecution, that he might show you how to endure persecution.

The Rooks OF 1aa1.

The last number of The Publishers
Circular gives the usual analytic table
of books published in England during
1891. The grand total is 5,706, made up
of A, ,429 new books and ,277 new
editions. These figures show slight
decrease ON those of the previous year, a
larger decrease on those of 1889, and a
very considerable decrease when COM
pared with the grand total of 1888, which
was 1891 There has been no material
variation of recent years in the proper
ton of the several classes, except that
novels are still growing steadily. Since
1880 the total number of novels new and
old) published in year has increased
from $50 to 1915, or more than twofold,
and miscellaneous Gncluding pamphlets)
has increased from 353 to 731, again
more than twofold.
On the other hand, arts, sciences and
illustrated works have decreased from
479 TO only 116, or less than one fourth;
and theology has decreased from 975 to
627. The annual output of poetry seems
to remain constant at between 100 and
ITO volumes; while the new editions of
old poetry, which come into competition
with contemporary verse, also remain
pretty constant between 20 and 20 vol
