Lam we'll acquainted with the stream
called Savage river having fshed

from the springs the Water committee

My opinion is the committee made
an immense mistake in not lnyestl-
eating the deep well proposal, for
there is undoubtedly plenty of water

THE WASTE OF MANHOOD.
Extracts From Recent Discourse by tn

Extracts From Recent Discourse by the
Rev. DR.. Cleveland.
To THE HOWARD CLUB-The following
extract is from sermon preached by the
Rev. DR.. Cleveland Sunday, April %. 1898.

church in this city. His text was part
of Matthew xii, u, and his subject was
Manhood"
1 feel very sure that the readers of the
III. L. c." columns will appreciate this
extract:
The most serious waste is the waste of
manhood. a nation exists for naught If
it does not produce great men. Babylon
fell because she did not produce manly
men, and today her former glory is a
lurking place for devils. She did not
produce manly men and is forgotten. The
gamers of Sicily are empty, but the bees
still fetch honey from the little garden of
Theocritus. Tennvson could not have
existed without Theocritus.
when Greece and Rome and Judea no
longer produced great men they persisted.
Nations which live for riches and not for
men sink into oblivion. All things are for
manhood, and those who make machines
and trust companies, but destroy men,
have no reason for existence. If it con-
tributes to the growth of men, then 1t does
its work. To make one such man as
Plato, Washington, Emerson or Lowell,
the commonwealth would do well if it did
nothing else for a thousand years. The
world is Gods kindergarten for the train
ing of men We don't know what we can
do till we try. Stupidity is for the most
part Incidence. We are Gods relatives
and growing man is close to God. Don't
get discouraged. You haven't got some
things, but there are lots of things that
you have got Then be alert, and alive.
and grow, and develop. If ghosts are dead
people walking about, the world is already
too full of them. There is no tame good
ness in the world. There is much that is
simply animal indulgence. ripening into
stupidity. The heaven of the new testa-
ment is the place beings come out Of
They are active and moving and that is
what is needed to develop mankind"

When Clouds Arc Dark.

How sad it is when loved ones die,
And earthly hopes all melt in gloom,
Words are useless; we give no cry,
Though all our world lays in the tomb.
The universe Is ROBBED in black
And we can see nothing but death;
Care not how soon tits our track.
And would gladly yield up our breath.
We know It's folly and madness
To rcpine, to weep and dePlore.
When earth should give JOY and gladness,
And sorrow and signing nevermore.
So give up repining
And await the beautiful shore,
Where we know the light will be shining,
To give us joy forevermore.
But oh, how lonely TO be alone,
Dissatisfied with what is given.
Waiting to see the dear loved one g ne,
Refusing everything but Heaven.
The kisses of others give sadness,
Reminding me of lips now cold;
But there's a measure Of gladness,
Given by friends, young and old
And 1 do love them, one and all,
With pure and holy love;
And expect TO welcome them all
And to meet my dear enc above
Now, my dear friends, bear for awhile,
With my sadness. sorrow and gloom,
Aud think not 60 see my old smile,
Until we all escape from the tomb.
And bask in the light OF the throne,
In that glorious Heaven above.
And there meet our friends, every one,
IN that land of love. pure love-

In lucid beauty from the skies,
Sweet Spring embraced the wIntry zone
And babe the tender plants arise.
All, balmy was the zephyr's breath,
The flowers pat forth the scented bloom,
The grass threw of the cloak Of death,
And winter crept into the tomb.
Today as shiverinz by the fire,
