Friday Nights Fight.

A good dca' Of interest is being
manifested in Friday nights fight,
which takes place at the Opera
House. Reports from BARRIERS
| training quarters in Reno, indicate
him to be in first class condition and
ready to battle for his life. In fact
both men are IN fine form and conf
dent: Following is Armstrong 5
record. BARRIERS record will be pub
lished in day or two:
William Armstrong was born IN
San Francisco in 1870 of American
parents. He is feet 10 inches tall
and WEIGHS, when out of training,
142 pounds. He has been the in
structot of the San Jose and Stock
ton Athletic clubs, and has fought
several battles in the California Ath-
letic club. He has engaged in fif-
teen fights in California, winning all
except two. When 10 years cd he
first entered the ring, and besides
fighting, he has trained several pro-
fessionals of note. In San Francisco
he bested Tom Quirk in two rounds
with bare knuckles, Tom Ryan in
six, Jumbo Hyer in four rounds and
John Hanlon, in Sacramento, in
three rounds. He defeated Ed.
Brady at Stockton and San Jose in
eleven and eight rounds, respective
ly. In Sacramento Charles Cannon
defeated him in twenty-eight rounds
and a month later Armstrong whips
ped Cannon in six rounds.
He knocked out in 10 rounds Billy
Lewis, who is now champion weller
weight of Idaho; John Norton in
four rounds and Dave Silva IN three
rounds. At the California Athletic
Club, two years ago, he fought Mick |
Mccarthy of Australia, and in the |
seventeenth round the police stopped |
the fight. Armstrong had the best
Of it. At the same club he defeated |
Martin McCafferty in ten rounds.
Boston Billy Smith the champion
weller weight, defeated Kim at the
Occidental Club in San Francisco
over year ago ii fourteen rounds.
This was to be expected, as Smith
also knocked out, two months later,
Charles Gleason in four rounds, and
alter Danny Needham i'll the same
number of rounds as it took to win
rom Armstrong.
He was then matched with Billy
shannon before the San Jose Ath-
etc Club, but at the last moment
shannon failed to appear, and Jim
local fighter was substi-
uted. Armstrong beat him so badly
hat the police stopped the fight at
he end of the fifth round while
Webster lay on the floor.

The Snake Taxes Aim.

A few days ago the writer saw an
Indian kill rattlesn-ke ia a very
peculiar manner.
The ra+tler was about ten feet
from the Indian, and the Indian was
merely resting the rifle on his knee
but not apparently taking aim.
Whenever he moved the weapon a
few inches the snake would move
around and get exactly in line
with it. Then to show the writer
how the thing was done he moved
about the snake in circle and the
reptile moved as if his tail was a
pivot, always keeping his head and
body right in line with the gun.
The Indian then agreed to bandage
his eyes and shoot the snake in the
mouth.
The writer bandaged the Indians
eyes and holding the gun by his side
at arms length he pulled the trigger
and the ball entered the snakes
mouth and passed the whole length
of his body.
"How did you take aiml' was the
query.
1.-The snake he take aim" was the
reply.
We have talked with an old hunter
on this proposition and he claims
that rattlesnake will always range
directly in line with a gun or
stick pointed at it.
There is never the slightest neces-
sity of aiming the weapon, you
merely touch the trigger and the
snake does the rest.

Be pitiful, be courteous. The roots
of plants are hidden Underground, SC
that themselves are not seen but they
appear in their branches, and flowers
and fruits, which argue there is a root
and life in them; thus the graces OF
the Spirit planted in the soul, though
themselves invisible, yet discover
their being and life In the tract of q
Christians life, his words, and actions,
and the frame of his carriage.
A mans rcalest self is his best self.
He can never do better than to do as
he was originally designed 10 do. 1t
was when the prodigaT son "came to
himself" that he was ready to return
to his better life and his fathers house.
Before that he was beside himself, or
away from himself. In every man
there is better self to which to ap-
peal. He who would win souls should
act on this conviction.
"Peace on earth and good will to
men," was the chorus of the song of
angelsr heard on the plains OF Beth
lehem when the Drama opened.
"Peace ] leave with you" was the
farewell legacy of the glorfied Re.
deemer, as he was about to suffer and
to overcome. And peace restored and
perfected between man and his Maker,
and man and his brother, will crown
the final consummatiOn and prepare
for the end of time; and seal up its
issues to everlasting retrihutions.
Doubts have been called "spectres
of the mind.n When we wrestle with
these unsubstantial appearances our
hands often fail to grasp anything,
and come together in striving. If
they come together in the posture of
PRAYER that is well. God will near and
deliver us with his truth, from our
doubt.
Gods word simply gives men facts,
doctrines, duties, and promises. 1t
does not stop to explain all the curl
GUS questions respecting the new birth
and the hereafter, but it simply says:
'sIf We know these things, happy are
We if We do them;" and "he that doeth
His will shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God or whether 81
speak of myself"
The nearer our Savior drew to His
glory the more humility He expressed.
His followers were first His servants,
and he their Master; then His diSci-
oles, and He their Teacher; soon af-
;erward they were His friends, and He
,heirs; straightway after His resur-
lection and entrance into an immor-
al condition they were His brethren;
md, lastly, they were Incorporated
nto Him and made partakers of His
,lory.

First Growth q Failure.

We had set out beautiful young
cherry-tree, it was of rare kind and
we had paid a good price to the nur-
sery-man for it; 1t was planted in q
choice place, carefully iuclosed, and
we hoped to have good fruit from it.
But it was not long before there came
evil tidings of our young tree: "the
top is dead; all of its early groth Is de-
stroyed; if it ever becomes fruit bear
ing tree it will have to put out from
the root"
We went TO examine ouf tree and
found that it was as We had heard; its
growth of several moths was all dead
would have to be cut away-if there
was any hope of it, 1t was that 1t
would put out from the root; its first
growth was a failure.
I did not look far before / saw my
tree again. / saw q boy who had been
reared in pious household, the sub
ject of many prayers and anxietles,
who had been faithfully instructed
from the pulpit faithfully taught in
the Sunday.schoOl; l saw him choose
bad ways and wicked associates, DISC
bey his parents, rebel against bis
teachers; saw him (Oh! sad sightQ
as he lost the good name which he had
inherited from his parents, and became
the mock and derision of fools; 1 saw
the years given to evil which were 80
favorable in making progress in that
which is good.
l said as / looked sadly at him,
"All of this evil must be cut away;
there must be hearty repentance for
all this misdoing; 1t may chance there
is some good in him still-still some
place left for repentance: he will have
to cut away the dead years misdoings;
it may be from the root good fruit yet
may grow.
But oh! the sad loss! the years that
ought to have been given to the devel-
opment of buds of promise that were
to ripen into fruit over which God and
men would rejoice, wasted!
A boy's failure! how sad 1t Is! I'm
faithfulness, dishonesty, falsehood:
how they blight young life; how
like the boughs of dead tree they
have TO be cut away and the boy has
to commence again---to begin from
the root!
Boys, o boys! be faithful, truthful,
honest, when you are boys. Don't
have to cut away the bright days of
boyhood as 30 much dead wood; don't
life with the bitter draught
of repentance.

Real Kindness.

A blind and crippled old man sat at
the edge Of the icy stone pavement
grinding out his few tunes on wheezy
hand-organ, and holding in one hand
a tin cup for pennies. The cold wind
blew through his rags, and he was in
deed pitiful object. Yet few of the
passers-by seemed to pity him. They
were all in hurry; aud 1t was too cold
to stop and hunt for pennies in pockets
anu purses.
A sudden gust of wind blew the old
mans cap off. 1t fell by the side of
the pavement, few feet distant. He
felt around for it with his bare, red
hands, and then with his cane; but he
could not find 1t, and finally began
playing again, bare-headed, with his
scanty giey locks tossed about i'll the
wind.
People came and went, happy, we'll.
dressed men and women, in silks aud
velvets and seal.skins, In warm over
coats and gloves and muffluers. But
none of them paid any attention to
the old man.
BY and by a woman came out of an
alley, an old woman in rags and tat
ters with a great bundle of boards and
sticks on her bent back. Some Of the
boards were 80 long that they dragged
OIL the ground behind her; and 1t had
evidently taken her long time to tie
all the boards and bits OF lumber to.
gether and get them on her back.
She came elong, bending low under
her burden, until she was within q few
feet of the old organ-grinder. She raw
his cap lying by the pavement she
saw him sitting bare-headed.
She stopped and united the rope
that bound the bundle to her back, and
in moment the boards were lying on
the ground. Then she picked up the
cap, put it on the old mans head, and
tied it down with a ragged string of a
handkerchief taken from her own
neck.
Gold, haint 1t p she said.
He nodded.
Amt gittin' much to-day"
He shook his head again.
She fumbled in her ragged skirts for
q moment, and finally brought forth q
copper. She dropped it into his little
cup, hoisted the great bundle on her
back, and went on her way.

A Boys Religion. a boy is a
lover Of the Lord Jesus Christ, though
he can't lead prayer-meeling, or be a
Church officer, or a preacher, he can
be godly boy, in a boys way :and in
a boys place. He need not cease to
be q Christian. He ought to run,
jump, climb and yell like real boy.
But In it he. ought to be free from
vulgarity and profanity. He ought to
eschew tobacco in every form and
have horror of Intoxicating drinks.
He ought to be peaceable, gentle,
merciful, generous. He ought to take
the part Of small boys against larger
ones, He ought TO discourage fight
ing. He ought to refuse to be parry
to mischief, to persecution or deceit.
And, above all things, he ought now
and then te<show his colors. He need
not always be interrupting game to
to say he is Christian, but he ought
not be ashamed to say that he refuses
to do something because he fears God
or is a Christian. He ought to take
no part in ridicule of sacred things,
but meet the ridicule of others with a
bold statement that for things Of God
he feels the deepest reverence.-Pres.

obliged to confess that this theme of
simplicity of dress has been one too
much overlooked by the tract-makers.
while 1 grieve to say that one of the
best that 1 ever read, DIR. Judson's
Letter on Ornamental and Costly At
tire; appears to be out of print. Il
have since then learned that H. l..
Hastings, Al Cornhill, Boston, and
Palmer & Hughes, Bible House, New
York, publish the tract.) Seeing the
abundant need there is for just such
literature, may our Baptist friends re,
issue this tract in new clean type, aud
in greater quantity than they ever did
in the past. Judson's letter, at the
first, was pathetic cry to the women
and young women, members of Chris
tian churches in America, to drop their
finery and fashionable attire for love
of the perishing souls of the far-away
Burmese and Karens. Should we not
give heed to the same pleading voice,
for the love of those who are much
nearer our own doors, lest they STUN
BILE and fall through our inconslderate
or unsantified example?
