over whelming testimony to it none
could deny it. st. Peter, on the
day of Penteco:t. with this truth
con, erted 5000 Jews, many OF
them, doubles, spectators of the
crucifixion. Thus amply, thus
variously has God avouched this
most vital of all facts.
One Of the most careful aud com
petent of modern historical scholars,
VIZ DR.. Arnold of Rugby affirms
"Thous ands and tens of thousands
have gone through the evidence
piece by piece as carefully as ever
Judge summed up an important
case. l have myself done 1t many
times over, not TO persuade Others,
but to satisfy myself. | have been
used for many years to study the
history of other times and to
examine and weigh the evidence of
those who have written about them,
al d know of no fact in the history
of mankind which is proved by
better or fuller evidence of every
sort to the understanding of fair
inquirer"
The differences from the resurrec-
ton are many and conclusive.
1t proves the truth of the whole
Christian revelation. 1t endorces
all the teachings and Gains of
Jesus. 1t shows that he did not
die az mere martyr, but that he
had power to lay down his life
and to take it up again" None but
God can have power over life and
death. Hence he must be God.
The entire supernatura element in
the scriptures is substantlated. If
it be true that if this falls all falls,
it must be eq tally true that if this
stands all stands.
Further, the event which Easter
celebrates avouches life beyond
death 1t shows, as Victor Hugo
said, that death is not blind
alley leading from nothing into
nothing, but a thoroughfare open
ing ia time aud leading on and up
to Immortality 1t confirms the
world lid and worldw wide rumors Of
existence beyond the grave every
argument of Plato and every hope
of Socrates.
We infer, too, that our departed
loved ones are in good hands.
Death is the end of probation and
the beginning of fruition. School is
out. We stand on the threshold Of
real life. "lt is surprising" writes
one, 'that person should wish to
live here who may have lie
there should prefer infancy to
maturity. And when friends hav g
gone out from us ioyously we
should g to the gave with the

not singing moulnful Psalms but
scattering flowers. Christians are
wont to wax in black, and sprinkle
the ground with tears, at the very
time when they should walk il
white and illumine the way by
smiles of radiant hope. The
di ciples found angels at the grave
eli Him they loved; and we should
always find them there, too but that
our eyes are too full OF tears for
seeing"
Tne proper inscription to be
carved upon mausoleum is that
which the citiz ans of aremberg
have inscribed on the tombstone OF
Albrecht Duerer, "the Evangelis,

AN uNLucKx MAIL CAR.

No. 800 Is . Veritable Terror to tho Eric
.r Railway Mon.
Railroad men, as q rule, are far from
being superstitious, but there's a GER
lain mail car on the Erie railroad
which trainmen always dread to have
On their train. This car, which is re-
yarded with such q superstitious dread,
is mail car No. 800. On account OF the
aversion to it, this car is kept at the
shops, except when it is absolutely
needed on the line. This car, accord
ing to the Chicago Tribune, has n
record which perhaps no other cor in
existence can equal. Not this car
alone, but all its predecessors bearing
the same number have met with dis
aster.
In the great disaster at Tioga Center
thirteen years ago, mail car No.
800 was wrecked and burned. A new
No. 800 was soon after built at the Jer-
sey City shops. After being in q num-
Der of minor wrecks, it went down the
steep bank at Shohola a few years ago
in one of the worst wrecks the road has
ever experienced. The remains of this
Inflated car were burned and a new
one bearing the same number was built
at the Buffalo car shops. For a short
time the bright, new car ran from ono
end of the road to the other in safety,
and the trainmen began to lose their
fear of it when it was in their train.
It's luck was shortlived, however, and
it has been in nearly every serious
wreck the road has had since. A little
over a week ago train No. 10 ran off the
track at q switch. AS was expected,
this car WIS on the train. 1854.
Recently there was a wreck near
Lackwaxen. A railroad man at that
station the day of the wreck, in talk
ing to como passengers, said: "I'l bet
800 was in the train" When the train
had been put on the track md pulled
slowly into the station the railroad
man said: There, told you So" Sure
enough there was the mail car with
the unlucky 500 in big figures on its
sides. These three figures are a terror
to every man on tho road, and until
the car is laid up for good the railroad
men say frequent wrecks may be looked
for.

SEEING. AN OPPORTUNITY.

johnnie Thought He Had the Chance Of
q Lifetime.
Many laughable things have hap
pened in Sunday schools, but few SUI
perintendents or teachers can ever
have been taken more completely
abacls than was Bishop Cheney on one
occasion. He was to superintend his
own school, says American Youth, and
rs he entered the church he met lit
tie group of street gsmins-ragged,
dirty and unattractive.
ST stopped to speak with them pleas
antly and told them that would put
them in classes after / was through
with the opening exercises. At this
one of them thrust his hand deeply
into his pants pocket md pulled out an
old jack-knife.
"'Mr. Cheney, I wish you would keep
that until after the Sunday school is
over
"Why he wanted me to keep it I did
not know then. / do not know now;
but took it, put it without thought
into my pocket, took my place upon
the platform, struck the bell that
called the school to order and was about
to give out tho opening hymn when
my attention was diverted by the pat
ter of little feet coming up the broad
aisle.
"It is long church, and a little girl
was coming from the extreme oppo-
site end. She came slowly, but with
an expression in her face that showed
she had a most important message to
communicate, and so all exercises were
suspended.
Every eye was upon her and upon
me as she climbed up the chancel
steps. With face and voice express
sive of intensest eagerness she said to
me:
"'Say, Mr.. Cheney, Johnnie wants his
knife. He's got q chance to trade"

A Natural Preference.

An inpecunious man stood at the
corner Of one of the Jersey City cross
streets during the recent bad weather,
watching brakeman as he helped to
shunt freight train into one of the
great car yards. Tho roofs of the cars
were slippery and wet, the brake
wheels looked cold, the brakeman had
red nose, watery eyes and n general
appearance of discomfort, and he
looked as If no had been out all night.
Turning to bystander, who was also
waiting for the train to pass, the inn
pecunious one remarked as he looked
up at tho detected and grimy figure:
