clusion law on May 6, in order
to cross into the United States

counsel have been retained by
the companies which bring the coolies
over under contract to defend any of
the Chinese who may be arrested after
crossing the borders on May g. Tho
feeling against the Mongols is very bit

probable that after May &, should it be
decided that the present law expired
then, and if no new law be enacted,
summary proceedings to expel tho
Chinese may be taken.

A MISSING HEIR.



LANCASTER, o., April 25.-Eleven
thousand dollars isn't such large sum,
but there are few people who would
deliberately ignore it. Yet that is
what George Sanderson, jr, is doing.
In March, 1861, Gen. George Sanderson
made u will disposing of his estate,
some $4,000. At that time George
Sanderson, jr,, had been away from
home many years, having gone to
Australia. The viii devised liberal
sum to George, jr,, stipulating that if
the son did not claim the sum within
ten years from the probating of the will
the money should revert to the estate
The will was probated in 1882. The alb
sent heir communicated with the tl'us-
tees several times, but never claimed his
share. His whereabouts are unknown,
though it is believed he is alive. The
ten years have elapsed, the trustee has
filed his final account. The exact
amount due the absent heir is Sl1, ,454.

There are two main thoughts that are
iterated and reiterated in this song Of
the centuries Psalm cxxSvi: 30 give
thanks unto the Lord, for He is good;
for His mercy Pc endureth forever"
Goodness, grace, present providence,
eternal purpose For He is good
Gods everyday kindness ''His mercy
eudEreth" - Gods everlasting love.
And every verse Of the Psalm repeats
this dual sribute. Perhaps you woke
one morning in a distant city and heard
ring out on the clear air the peal Of
bells. At FIRST the little bells from the
ueiEiIbor5ng steeples, sounding ont in
CHEEKY tones their morning praise; here
one, there auOthor and another, a
chorus of metallic voices cryings God
is good! God is FOodF" Then suddenly,
upon these, as ft were, childish treble;
broke forth in mighty volume the
booming note of the great cathedral
bell, and it seemed at each of its recur-
ring strokes to hush for the momenb
the lesser. cries of homage with its
thunderous tribute of sublime ad0ra-
tiou: His mercy endureth forsver!"
So speak the voices of this Psalm from
beginning TO end. 80 give thanks uu-
to the Lord, for He IS good; for His
mercy cudureth forsverl" First the
little bells of hourly benefits ana be
stOwments, then ever and anon the
great bell of eternal redemption speaks
ont; "To Him that made great lights
for His mercy endurcth forever
Who -givctiI food 20 all desh-f0r
His mercy eudureth forever. o give
thanks unto the God Of Heaven, for
His mercy eDdurcth foreverl' Voice
after voice saying: "Give thanks
give thanks" Nature hears and
obeys- Buds, trees, flowers, each in
their course give answer; and shall
man alone, to whon this Psalm comes
calling, stay specchlcss2 Voices al
about rs, chorus of thanksgiving.

dureth forever Chicago Post
