GRANDMOTHER'S BIBLE.

So You've brought me this costly Bible.
With It's covers - grand and gaF
You thought | must need a new one
On my eighty-first birthday, YOU say.
Ies. mine is wcGn-out volume.
Grown ragged and yellow with age.
With linecr-print, thick on the mar
But there's never missing page.
And the fingcr-prints call back my
wee ones,
just learning a verse to repeat:
And again, in the twilight their faces
Look up to me, eagerly sweet
It has pencil-marl;s pointing in silence
To words have bid in my heart;
And the lessons, so hard in the learn
ing,
Once learned can never depart.
There's the verse your grandfather
spoke Of
The very night that he died
when | shah wake il His likeness,
l. too, shall be satisfied
And here, inside the old cover,
l. a date-it j. faded and dim,
For wrote it the day the good pastor
Baptized me-I'ye an old wOman's
Whim.
That beside the pearl gates he is
waiting.
And when bv-and-by shall go,
That he will lead me into that king
dom,
As into this one below.
And under that date little Mary,
Write another one when | die
Then keep both Bibles and read them
God bless YOU, child, why should
yOn CRY?
Your Gift is beauty, my dearie,
With its wonderful clasps OF gold.
Put it carefully into that drawer;
| shall keep it till death but the
just leave it close by On the table
And then YOU may bring me light,
And III read a sweet Psalm from its
pages
TO think Of. if wakeful tonight.
-Load0n Christian

Our Shortened Schedules.

While the fast mail train from New
York to jacksonville reaches here
later than it did last winter, it is run
ming on a much faster schedule-the
fastest. in fact, ever operated between
the two cities, not excluding the vesti-
buled schedules even.
For instance, the regular fast mail
schedule last winter was 80 hours and
90 minutes, the passenger taking the
train from New York at y o'clock
midnight Of Monday. say, and reach
ing jacksonville a 80 clock a. ~
on Wednesday. This was an excellent
thing for the public here, for it placed
the New York and other northern
newspapers in our hands by 9 10 IN
the morning and our mail by 10 or
10 30. But for the travelling public
the old time of leaving New York and
all POINTS between there and Washing
ton was extremely awkward. Nobody
likes to start on journey at midnight,
and the result was as long as the old
schedule WAS III operation, that the
tourists. particularly preferred to? take
the other train which was slower but
started ut a mere convenient hour
Now, however, the schedule il not
only more convenient but much faster
Tie passenger leaves New York at 9 80
a. ~ one day and reaches jacksonville
the next at | is y. n.-the running
time being only = hours and 45 min
utea ana the traveller being only one
night on tie road This short time is
due chiefly 10 the Atlantic Coast Line
cutoff and it is something that the
public viii thoroughly V appreciate as Of
ten as it is called upon to travel south
ward
It shoult; he borne in mind also III
this connection that the railroad and
steamship companies between New
York and Havalla-eigllt in number
formerly received additional pay from
the post Office department for their fast
mail service, this amounting to about
a quarter of a million dollars annually.
Tie same companies now give Us a
mach faster schedule bat without any
additional pay. We surely have moth
ing to complain about in this particu-
lar.
In ail probability the regular sched-
ulc Will he materially shortened next
winter. and the ycstibuleJ trains will

Debate on Hcrins Sea Arbitration aud the
War In Ulster.
LONDON, March 20.-ln the commons
William Johnston, conservative Nj. p. for
South Belfast, one of the most earnest and
Incorporating of Ulster Orangemen.
asked Chief Secretary Morley whether IL Ia
true that the government is hiring mills in
Ulster to accommodate troops. Morley re-
piled that he would give the reasons when
he knew the statements to be true, but the
fact was they are entirely untrue. Laugh
ter.
Gibson Bowles, conservative NJ. p. for
KinGslinn, and known as a leading news
paper man, called attention to the subject
Of the Boring sea arbitration. He urged
that it Involved the question of the free
dom of the high seas, and such question
ought not to be submitted to arbitration.
England. he continued. never succeeded
under arbitration, because England had
not q single friend among the
tages in war. as leading usually to
lasting settlement. MI war usually left
sentiments of mutual respect between COM
batants. If the country was unable to pro-
tect the high seas, and had to coerce a
great colony. all the dispatches the foreign
office could issue would not hide the fact
that the greatness OF England had gone.
Sir Edmund Gray replied that the remarks
were sinRularly inopportune. seeing that
the arbitration relating TO Boring sea is now
proceeding.
W. A. Hunter. liberal Nj. p. for Aber-
deem, said the remarks of Bowles contained
an Argument to arbitrate the Boring sea
Issue. Lord Salisbury WAS very weak,
Hunter said, with q strong power. and
scandalously strong in dealing with a weak
power. These remarks of Hunter evil
IDENTIFY were not relished by the conserva-
tives, and the subject was dropped.

Must Stand Trial.
OwRNspoRo. Ky, March 20.-Eleven we'll
known farmers of Perryon. Crawford
county. Indiana, are under Indictment.
charged with the murder of John Davidson,
a well-known farmer of Crawford county.
Six years ago these men were members of a
rang of whitecaps who terrorized the re-
Gion. John Davidson was suspected of
completely in the alleged abduction and
outrage of q girl. Davidson was taken
from home at night and subjected to hor-
rible torture to force n confession. Failing
to extort any confession from him. these
snvages hung him from the limb of a tree.
1t was soon proved that Davidson had no
knowledge of the alleged outrage of the
girl, but the secrets of the band were so
we'll kept that no direct evidence against
them could be presented in court. One of
the leaders OF the gang, named Otto Pos
tenburg, was convicted upon another charge
at the last term of court ut Cannslton and
sentenced to q long term in the p~enitentiary
and another turned states evidence. which
led to the indictment of these eleven MEM
bers of the gang. They have paid a firm Of
lawyers at Connection $4,000 to defend
them.
