permit 1t, but we wanted to make old
ST happy once more and are willing
to take the penalty.
Another Mistake.-When a stranger
came to US as mayor the other day to
get a license for q grand aggregation
of living curiosities,' which he wanted
to exhibit under a tent. we felt it our
duty to warn him that if things did not
prove to be up and up he would hear
something drop. He treated our kindly
intentions with lofty disdain, and we
issued the license with a feeling that
he would bump up against something
new before the week was out. We'd
nesday evening he opened his show to
the public He had a big sign reading
Gigantic Aggregation of Stupendous
Curiosities." on the front of the tent,
and the minute old Doc Poole got sight
of it, he opened fire, just as we had
predicted. Before the city marshal
could get to him he had shot off all the
sign except "Gigan," and had likewise
scared most of the living curiosities in
to fits.
Among the exhibits was a fat boy
from Ohio, warranted to weigh 220
pounds. Five or six of the boys hefted
him and put his weight down at 165
pounds. He was carried across the
street and put on the scales, and when
it was found that he only weighed 1853
pounds things began to break loose.
There was a wild girl from Borneo
who chewed gum so naturally that old
Jim Fuller recognized her as girl
from Pike county, Mo. The living
skeleton had more fat on his bones than
the man who run the show, and after
considerable trouble it was found that
'the biggest gorilla ever captured
alive" was a, boy fixed up for the occa-
sion and a poor fix at that.
This is a great locality for inevitable
results There was an inevitable result
to this deception of the confding pub
lie. There was a sudden yell from the
seventy-fve men standing inside the
tent, and then the herd stampeded.
Somebody abducted the wild girl of
Borneo, and within a, week we expect
to announce her marriage The fat boy
was placed on a loose mule and sent
off for a ride, the gorilla stripped of
his skin and soundly spank
ed, and the last we saw of
the proprietor of the show he was be-
ing tossed in blanket and yelling for
mercy. We understand that he left
town on foot, and that the sheriff has
charge of his tent and a box of snakes,
AS we have stated before, this is a
good town for shows, but it must be
a good show. We are an up and up
people We pay for what we get, but
want what we pay for. If a theatre
cal company comes here to play Ham
let, there must be no Uncle Tom and
little Eva cantering around on the
stage, and if the play is "Uncle Tom S
Cabin then Hamlet has got to keep
out of it, or some of the boys will
shoot his whiskers off

a Priceless Sentence.

Prom the lips of Jesus Christ, when
he was here among men, fell these
words of priceless meaning: God so
loved the world that he gave his only
begotten son, that whatsoever believeth
in him should not perish. but have
everlasting life That sentence is a
cube of the purest gold. that may be
minted into the current coin of daily
exchange, as it makes possible a true
Christian socialism; or fashioned into
the ornaments which befit the children
of a king, as the doctrine of God, our
Savior, is adorned in all things; or
held as the token which will admit a
sinful creature into the pure and rad
liant life of heaven. Few words are
used, but each word finds its interpre-
tation in the holy scriptures, whose
main purpose is the unwilling of God S
character. So that we may know and
believe that the same God who is an
nounced in the book of Genesis as the
creator of the heavens and the earth,
and all the host of them, is he who
has loved us with an everlasting love-
This love is the source of every re-
demptive blessing. The initiative is
with God. He first loved US There
are two kinds of religion, and only
two, remarked President Seelye, as he
addressed the educated Eindus of In
dia. The one begins with man, and
seeks by human endeavors after a
divine fellowship. The other begins
with God. and by way wholly divine
seeks after man. In this the peculiar
ity of the Christian, in distinction
from all other systems of religion, and
in the revelation of this doctrine is
the distinction of the bible from all
other books. The salvation which the
Christian religion announces is pro-
cured wholly through divine work, and
is offered to man, not in the least be-
cause his obedience or service can merit
it, but solely through the free exer-
else of divine mercy. The little word
so covers all that is distinctive in
the gospel message. God so loved the
world The so is grace, and grace,
so far as we are aware, is Gods es-
pecial love for this, our world. He may
have and has, other love for other be-
ings and from other worlds. But for
us Gods love is grace, unmerited favor.
When he loves the world Goa is kind
unto the unthankful and the evil -

had heard that Arizona was TO be

becoming civilized enough to have
sidewalks and telephones. He couldn't

Said astronomer Barnard in a re-
cent interview in st. Louis:
"Photographing the Milky Way is
a slow and tedious labor, because no
known clock-work keeps pace with
the silent movements OF the stars !;
so all telescopic cameras must be
kept in position by the most minute
measurements and by the constant
manipulation Of delicate screws. The
photographs Of suns so large ours is
grain of sand on the infinite shores
Of matter in comparison, do not show
larger than the thousandth part Of an

hundreds of miles each second ,-are
slower than the creeping of the hour
hand over the face OF an old-fas hion-
ed Dutch clock. Yet the Milky
Way, thickly studded as it is with
giant suns, and resplendent with
varied lights and magnitudes, shows
that every star has buck of it lumi-
nous background Of possibly millions
more; and the apparently black
specks on the negatives. which pre-
show the vault Of empty

On Sept. IA, 1862, the battle of
Boonesboro, Maryland, was fought by
a detached and very inferior force
of Confelerates under Gen. ID. III.
Hill and the leading divisions OF Nc
Clellan's army under Hooker and
Reno. The Contcderates suffered
defeat and many were captured.
Among this gallant band Of Confed-

A Pathetic Incldsni.
Written for the Reveille ]


Written for the Reveillel
One OF the most pitiful mistake
in the relations Of the white ant
black race to each other, is the at
titude Of alienation, almost antaeo
nism, often assumed by the latter
towards their former masters anc
friends.
A distressing incident of this kind
came under our observation recent.
ly in the person and death Of once
competent and accomplished mu.
latto woman, who was the devoted
servant of the gentlest, kindest lady
who ever owned n slave. Mutual
dependence, the one for service
gladly rendered, the other for sup
port and protection, had drawn
these two closely together.
During the war the bond woman
hid, from the thieves in the Yankee
army, the silver and other valua-
bles her mistress had entrusted 10
her care. At the peril Of her own
life she revealed to her. almost on
the eve of its attempted execution,
a plot, among the other slaves, to
massacre the family and plunder
and burn the beautiful home above
their murdered bodies. Gratitude
formed another link TO the chain
that bound the two together.
The white children, above whose
cradles the two had leaned with
almost equal tenderness and ankle
ty, and care, loved them both.
There was scarcely n comfort enjoy
eel by one that the other did not
share. Good food and clothing and
shelter and consideration lifted the
mnlatto woman to a position i'm
which she was satisfied and respect
ed. Her face beamed with content
ment, her unhurried step was dig
nified, her eyes clear with health
and happiness. But in the negro
reared at the expense of
her good mistress, in the homage
and envy of her own race, the seeds |
Of poison and dissatisfaction were
sown.
