Beautiful Living.

We do not know when we are
working for immortality, by what
act or word of ours we shall be re-
membered. 1t may be the obscurest
thing of our life that shall shine in
the most radiant glory. Let us,
then, seek to make everything we
co beautiful enough to be our cpl
taph. If our hearts are always full
of love, our lives will be full of gen.
tie deeds that will please God and
bless the world Then we shall
write our names where no floods of
years, no abrasion Of events, no
wasting tooth of decay, no hungry
waves of time eating away the bank
whereon we stand can ever destroy
the record. To neglect the least
duty may be to spoil our own inn
mortality. One opportunity missed
may be the marring of our whole
life.-J. r. Miller.

ARAB RISING IN AFR1CA.-The
Rev. A. j. Swami, missionary for
ten years ON Lake Tanganyika, de.
scribes the situation in Central
Africa as critical, the existence of
the slave trade conducted by the
Arabs being at stake. The Arabs
are being pushed from every side,
and in their desperation are likely
to massacre such Of their opponents
as they can overpower. Their fight
ing force is estimated at 10000 men.
Recently Major Won Wissmann had
an engagement with them in the
Tanganyika district. The Belgians
have just driven them from the
Congo country, and now, on arriv-
ing at Lake Tanganyika, their old
base, they find their road barred by
another Belgian force under Cap
tain Deschamp is leading a Belgian
expedition to the assistance of Cap.
tain Sacques, whom the Arabs have
sought to isolate and destroy. The
Arabs see themselves deprived of
their base and find the route by
which their slaves were conducted
to the east coast being closed to
them. A decisive blow struck now
will end their power, but there is
danger that they may prove too
strong for any one of the parties
operating against them.
Mr.. Swami thinks German East
Africa IAN elephant without ivory
on the governments hands, since
the Belgians in the Congo country
are now taking out the ivory by way
of the Congo. What now goes
through the German sphere from
Uganda and the surrounding coun-
tries will soon be diverted by the
British to the direct railway route
TO Nom hasa. Unless the Germans
colonize the highlands and grow
coffee and tobacco their possessions
will be proftless. The Congo State
may prove to be worthless when the
ivory is cleaned out. The British
settlers at Blantyre, in the Shire
Highlands rely upon their own
products-tea, coffee, wheat and to-
bacco-and are fourishing. About
Lake Nyassa the British are pros.
pering because Mr.. Johnston, the
commissioner, lis not running
amuck and jeopardlzing exis ing in
terests, but is handling delicate
position with tact, treating the ma
tives with consideration, and giving
the wealthy Arabs fair opportuni-
ty either to leave the country or re-
linquish the slave trade" The
German plan of might makes
right" the missionary thinks, will
not be successful in the end.

THE STATE FAIR.

NORTH YAKIMA. July 29-fSpecial. +
President Parker. OF the State Fair Asso-
citation, today assured your correspondent
that the full amount Of $1,000 bonds
had been sold at . small dis
count since their issuance by the
county. leaving a sufiiciency for the pur-
chase Of the ellison track as site for the

diasely upon the grounds. Mr.. Gibson, the
ex-owner. having signihed his Willingness

acres, as he had intended doing.
President Parker says that work on the

will leave his horses here permitting them
to make their records on the state fair
track in preference to taking them East.
He is more than satisfied with the pro-
gress here.
1t is now an assured fact that there will
be no state fair at Yakima this tall. The
late beginning OF work upon the pavilions,

prevailing hard times. have made il ap-
parent TO the con- missoners that the

that the first attempt should DO q pro-
