Arrival of the Dead.


KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 20.-Last
night Il special train bearing the volun-
teers who were killed in the battle
at Coal Creek yesterday, three men
who were wounded and 1913 volunteers
who went to the front Thursday night
rolled into the depot. Three thousand
people were gathered about the station
and the excitement was higher than ut
any time since the trouble began.
When the train stopped the men, who
bore every evidence of actual service on
the field of battle, poured out of the
coaches and formed in a line through
which two Of their dead comrades were
carried in military style. The COM
pany formed with arms reversed and
marched behind the remains of the
dead volunteers TO the courthouse.
Not until the arrival of this train was
1t possible to get a correct statement of
the incidents leading up to II.
Five men were killed in all. John II.

THE MEASURE OF QUA DAYS.

In all our walks, In all our ways,
Think not the measure of our days
Is gauged by figures and by rules,
As erst was taught rs In the schools:
But, as we help a brothers needs
BY noble acts and generous deeds.
By giving comfort where we may.
BY lighting up q mourner's way;
The sum of means that we employ
To turn fellows Ills to joy
This is the measure of our days.
A veteran in the wars of life,
A prisoned soldier in the strife
OF soul with stingy, envious Time
Is he who makes his actions rhyme
To universal brotherhood.
Though long or short hath been his road
Centuries or decades his abode
Among his kind, it matters least
So fellows by him have been blest.
His life is measured by his plan
OF dealing with his fellow man.
This is the measure of his days.
And much methinks Of time he gains.
For all his labors, all his pains,
For reaching outward far and near
To succor want and shelter fear.
No stingy paddock hens him in,
To mean desires and groveling sin.
A widows blessing him avails,
An orphans prayer some good entails,
While stretching outward over man
He converse holds with Natures plan.
And solving life's deep mysteries,
BE grasps eternal verities.
This Is the measure of his days.

Drowning HAIR a Continent.

When the Panama canal was first pro-
posed great cry went up that such a
''ditch" would endanger the lives of mil
lions of human beings. 1t was argued
that the waters on the Pacific side of the
isthmus were hundreds of feet higher
than they were ON the Atlantic side, and
that the great rush of waters to even up
the difference in the level Of the two
oceans would drown out. all southern
North America, all the West Indies and
most of Mexico and Yucatan. Would
be engineers and sensational editors
passed their opinions or wrote yards of
scare editorials on the subject. It now
turns out that the Atlantic and not the
Pacific is the higher of the two oceans.
and that in place Of the difference in
level being hundreds of feet, as had been
affirmed, the surface of the water on the
east side Of the isthmus is exactly 61S
feet higher than it is on the western
side.-St. Louis Republic.

chips for the Churchgoer.

There are many people who think they
ought to help the Lord to keep the
preacher humble.
1t is easier to run an engine without
fire than it is to keep up church with
out prayer meeting.
The pastor who tries to carry his
church to heaven on his shoulders viii
be sure to drop the most of it.
Men who stamp around among the
stars in the pulpit are not much account
in helping people toward heaven.
Closing the heart against the cry of
the needy is only another way of shut
ting the door of heaven against yourself.
The protracted meeting in which the
members of the pastors family take no
interest is not apt to develop into much
of a revival-Ram's Horn.
