WASHINGTON, April 15.-The Senate
held its last executive session this after
noon and every nomination made by
the President up to date was confirmed
with the exception of Hewson E. Lam
non TO be United States Marshal for
Delaware, which was sent In to-day.
Under the rule single objection was
sufficient to carry the nomination for a
day, and Senator Higgins, of Delaware,
made that objection and persisted in it.
The Senate by inaction in executive
session also failed to make public the
text OF the treaty recently negotiated
with Russia, and that convention along
with the treaty with France remains
among the secret archives of the State
Department and the executive clerk OF
the Senate,

az can't become a Christian because
there Is time enough YET" is running q
risk infinite. You do not perhaps real
ize the fact that this descending grade
OF sin gets sleeper and sleeper, and that

to the brakes. o my friends, be not

after awhile l will repent, and then 1t

Que ever gets fully over procrastination.
II you give your soul to God some other
time than this, you will enter heaven
with only half the capacity for enjoy
meut and knowledge you might have
had. There will be heights of blessed
ness you might have attained, you will
never reach; thrones Of glory on which
you might have been seated, but which
you will never climb. We will never
get over proerastinatlon, neither in
time nor In eternity: We have started
on march from which there is no re-
treat The shadows Of eternity gather
on our pathway. How Insignificant is
time compared with the vast eternity!
l was thinking of this while coming
down over the Allegheny Mountains at
noon, by that wonderful place which
you have all heard described as the
Horseshoe-a depression In the side OF
the mountain where the train almost
turns back again upon itself, and you
see how appropriate is the description
of the "HorseshOe"-and thinking on
this very theme, and preparing this
very sermon, it seemed TO me as il the
great courser of eternity speeding along
had just struck the mountain with one
hoOf and gone on into illlmitable space.
so SHORT Is TINE,
so insignificant is earth, compared with
the vast eternity!
This morning, voices roll down the
sky,and all the worlds of light are ready
TO rejoice at your disenthralment. Rush
not into the presence of the King rag
ged with sin, when you may have thi:
robe Of righteousness. Dash not your
foot to pieces agaist the throne of cru
CRIED Christ. Throw not your crown
of life off tho battlements. All the
scribes of God are this moment ready
with volumes of living light to record
the news Of your soul emancipated.

ATE ELEVEN DOZEN OYSTERS.
Queer Wager Between Arthur Padelford
and James williams.

and James Williams.
BALTIMORE, April 16.-James Will
liams and Arthur Padeliord, two we'll
known clabmen, got into dispute Yester-
day as to who could eat the most oys-
ters. They made large wager, chose
seconds and adjourned 10 cafe, and,
without explaining to the waiter what
was to be tried, the seconds called for
raw oysters on the half shell.
The shucker, who knew nothing Of
the wager, opened his eyes when sew
eral dozens had been eaten. and more
we're asked for. When each of the
eaters had finished six dozen the open
er's eyes began to bulge. He kept on
shocking, however, until each man had
eaten eleven dozen and three oysters.
Then he said he didn't propose to be
tried for murder. Williams and Padel
ford thereupon agreed to call it a draw
and each acknowledged that he had for
once appeased his appetite for the
biyalves.

His six Young Children.
New YORK, April 16 Eugene John
Newman is accused by his wife and
some neighbors of having poisoned his
six young children after taking out
small policies on their lives in the
Metropolitan Insurance Company Of this
city.
Burial of the last child has been
stopped until an analysis of its stomach
can be made. Mrs. Newman also thinks
her husband tried to poison her. OF
the six children Of the household three
have died suddenly of gastric troubles,
one of meningitis, and two, it is said, OF
commissions, which may have been the
outcome of gastric troubles. The
father claims that they inherited the
disease from their mother, and the doc
tors say it is hereditary.

Street fakirs nowadays make an
apology for their appearance. They do
1t, you know, just to advertise their
medicine, &C., because it is a cheaper
way OF advertising than in the daily
papers, and the laboring classes, whom
these fellows are SO friendly towards,
gets the benefit of the saving on this
way OF introducing whatever they are
selling that 'the people cannot get

A Disgusting Vice.

One needs only to walk on the streets
Of Reynoldsville to be convinced that
profanity. one Of the most disgusting
and prevalent vices, is growing to an
alarming extent. We believe that
it is the duty Of every journalist, who
is not vulgar enough to use it himself,
to help suppress profanity-meaning-
less, vulgar profanity. II does not
require II close observer to discover
that its use is confined to no age, sex or
position. 1t pollutcs alike the conver-
sation of youthful strength and decrepit
age. In the highways, and byways,
the counting room and workshop, and
and too often in the social and family
circle the ear is dinned by conversation
interlarded with profanity which neither
digniiies, emphasizes nor embellishes.
The STRIPPING Of our town vies with the
man Of business In the interjection Of
his oaths, and long before he reaches
mans estate has acquired detestable
habit which becomes second nature,
and has secured his proficiency as n
professional swearer for the term of his
natural life; so that go where he may

time to call a halt, to put the penalty
of social ostracism on the individual
who INDUCES in It. Peculiarly apropos
In this connection are the lines Of

Tho Pumps Of the Egyptian.

A representative piece Of mechanism
occurs frequently on the sculptures Of
early Egypt II has the appearance Of
and Is generally believed to be that Of a
portable pump. The hydraulic screw Is
also attributed to this people. but their
main reliance seems always to have been
the Shadoof. seen everywhere along the
banks OF the Nile, an invention 30 sim
pie and so well adapted TO their needs
that It remains today substantially the
same as II has through all the centuries
since history began.
The same may be said regarding the
chain pump In China, an invention the
origin Of which antedates the Christian
era. This simple machine, which seems
never to have been improved upon, is in
such common use that every agricultural
laborer is in possession Of one. Where
irrigation Is conducted on larger scale
the chain pump is made proportionately
larger and moved by very simple tread
wheel, and still larger ones are operated
by yoking buffalo or other animal TO a
suitable driving machine.
The application Of steam to raising
water is Of uncertain origin. Long be-
fore the Christian era certain applica-
tions of fire to vessels containing water,
by which effects were produced calcu-
lated to astonish ignorant worshipers,
were practiced by the priests Of Egypt,
Greece and Rome. but their knowledge
seems never to have been turned into
any channel Of secular usefulness. EN-
