mourn over them as candidates for the In
flnitely more terrible punishment OF the
lake OF fire. and seek to rescue them from
the clutches OF the evil one.
During the year past the soldiers OF the
Salvation Army. according TO the statistics
OF Commander BooTH. have captured from
the devil more than $4,000 souls. They have
sent no one OF his victims to an earthly
prison. for they do not regard themselves
us auxiiarics OF the police. acting as n So
ciety for the prevention of crime by direct
ing against IL human penalties. The penal
ties with which they alarm the sinner nre
the everlasting torments OF he'll.
The Salvationists. therefore. arc infused
with some OF the truo spirit OF Christianity.
and that Is the reason of their successful
progress against the obstacles raiscdngainst
their enterprise by popular ridicuc. They
are sincere and In dead earnest. and thcy
are enthusiastic. They really believe what
they profess. and they have u genuine
sympathy with the wicked as tho victims
of an adversary plotting against them,
of themselves alone.
So far. they deserve respectful considera-
ton. and they seem to be getting it in great
er measure the moro familiar the public
become with the Salvation Army. They
are host OF religious gueriillas who are
fighting the devil Independently OF tho
organized army Of the Church. but they APP
penr to conduct their operations in quarters
and by methods which do not give offence
to the regular forces. At any rate. their
way Of attacking sin Is as consistent with
the Christian philosophers PARKHuRsT's is
contrary toit.
Doubtless they arc an ephemeral express
sion OF religious fanaticlsm. but they seem
to be doing much more good than evil.

The facts Of the COLUMBUS pageant are
pretty we'll known to the citizens OF New York
and of the country for many miles about Mr..
THOMPSON. 1t is true. would be a hero If he did
rot complain OF his present fortune: but. mono

great and enjoyable success. creditable
to the thousands Of ceebraters. to the
millions OF spectators. and to the linz

provide the floats and TO make them gorgeous.
was not even brilliant failure. Tho floats

the managers OF tho COLUMBUS ceiebration
have demurred about paying his Bill.

An Ancient Relic.

A novel and very interesting relic Of
the days when the Indians held undis-
puted sway in this part of the, country
has been found near Coupeville, Wash
ington. It is the head of some instru-
ment, probably a war club, and ID
formed from what appears to be a wal
rus tusk, the point of which is broken
off. 1t is about ten inches long, and in
the centre is hole a tride less than an
inch square. evidently intended for the
reception of handle. As walrus are
not ROW found In the sound, the weapon
probably belonged to SOME of the far
northern tribes, and was dropped dur
ing one Of their frequent predatory ex-
cursions in this vicinity.-Portland Ore
