In his brief funeral sermon as follows
 THE SERMON.
 When we pray, as some of us are ac- customed to in the Litany, that we may be delivered from sudden death l think what Is meant is the sudden ness of a death that Is unprepared for. Any one who has given his heart to God can never be surprised by death. If only we are striving from day to day to live the Christian life it is after all of little account how the end may come or when or where.
 So in the case of him whose loss we mourn to-day. None of us but were shocked when the news came of the distressing circumstances of his death, but we may believe it was sudden taking away for which he was moi wholly unprepared.
 It takes away one who was highly es. teemed in this community and will be sadly missed. During the six years ol more that he has lived here he has won the esteem of wide circle of friends Quiet and gentlemanly; of a social and friendly disposition; always ready to dc @ kindness for another if he could thoughtful, fond of reading, intelligent and well informed; and into whatever relations he was brought with others whether in business or socially, always gentleman; these I think were some of the qualities which attracted to him many warm friends.
 I feel also that his death is great loss to my church. For several years he has been vestryman of my parish and communicant and one of the most constant of attendants at church. I dc not think that anything but sickness oi other most important reason svsr kept

ST. BERNARD DOGS.
Far away from this place, across
the Atlantic Ocean, is a country call
ed Europe. The mountains there are
very high and are called the Alps.
There are good many men living
on these mountains called monks.
These monks keep large dogs called
St. Bernard dogs. There is snow on
the mountains all the year around.
Travellers are often lost in the snow
while climbing the mountains. The
monks send out these dogs to find
those who have been lost in the snow.
The dogs have such keen scent that
they can find the, lost traveller by
that alone. The way they waken
the traveller is by licking his pulse.
Sometimes the dog has small bottle,
or key, tied around his neck that
has brandy or warm water init. The
traveller takes this and it makes him
a little stronger, so he can get on
the dogs back easier. There was one
st. Bernard dog named Barry" who
saved forty lives, and in trying to
save the last one persisted, himself
Hundreds of lives are saved every
year by these dogs.

A MOONsHINERs SCOTS.
Jim Days Trained Dogs Always
Saved Him from Arrest.

The most noted mountainCer in West
Virginia, and perhaps in Kentucky and
North Carolina, Jim Day, has at last
been captured. The Government officers
had been trying to arrest Day for over
fifteen years, but failed on every oCca-
sion. Day, who is tan, muscular,
shrcwd-loking fellow, says the -. Louis
Republic, has been running Illicit stills
for over fifteen years. During this time
he has had sometimes as many as a
dozen stills running at one time.
The stills were located in the depths
OF the primitive forests or In caves in
the mountain sides long Gistnnce from
rondways and trails. The stills are al.
height or at II point from which a
guard or spy, constantly on the alert,
could overlook all approaches, and ad.
Wise his companions OF the vicinity q
suspicious looking strangers. Tim" and
again revenue officers have Attempted
to waylay and ambush Day: They found
roads and trails over which II was
and they then placed squads in ambush,
but although Day had been seen or
traced along the road. he always slipped
through their fingers without scratch.
At last the secret Of his success in
evading the officers became known. Day
had number of thoroughbred dogs
which he had trained to scent out rev
enue officers or strangers ana 10 notiiy
him OF their presence lonE before they
could come In sight. When, travelling
over the routes or trails leading to and
| from any of his stills, two of Days dogs
always trotted along In front severa
hundred yards. taking opposite sides OF
| the road. Two would fall back In the
rear, and one would advance like scout
| on each side.
In case of an ambugcade the dogs In
front would scent the presence or tn'
! deputy marshals before they got within
hundred yards OF them. They w,oult
return quickly to their master and In
form him by their actions Of the pres
| ence of the enemy. Day would then take
to the woods to the right or left. with d
| buscade without being seen. In case
pursuers should come up behind. DAYS
| dogs. which had been trailing along
| would quickly hear or scent them an(
then would hurry forward to their mas

IT KILLED FIVE MEN.
Santander's Second Dreadful Ex-
plosion Of Dynamite.
The Stuff Had Been Soaking Four
Months In a Sunken Ship.
Mob Threatens tho Civil Governor
and the Engineer.

sANTANDER. March 22.-The great
est excitement prevails throughout the
city OF Santander to-day over a new
dynamite horror which came to pass
last night. and only the presence
OF a strong force OF troops patrolling
the streets and stationed at every con-
venient point prevents great disorder
and bloodshed.
The explosion Of la IT night was the re-
suit Of apparent carelessness In remov-
ing what remained OF the cargo of dyna-
mite in the submerged hulk OF the Span
ish steamer Cabo Machichaco, which
blew up on Nov. 3 last while alongside
wharf here. causing the loss OF a hun
dred small vessels and merchant
steamer. and the killing or wounding of
about one thousand people.
The divers and their assistants were
at work on the sunken ship at Q
o'clock last night, by the aid of electric
light, when n quantity OF the dynamite
exploded and the two principal divers
and three workmen were killed and
seven men. who were assisting In the
work ashore. were dangerously injured.
The Governor and engineer hastily bar
ricaded themselves In their houses. while
mob, which quickly gathered, shouted
threats at them and appeared upon the
point OF attacking their residences.
The municipal authorities called upon
the Civil Guards. and the latter sue
cceied In driving back the mob from the
reside nee OF the Civil Governor. and from
the house occupied by the engineer, who
was charged by the people with beipg dl.
| rectly responsible for the loss Of life.
The dynamite. having been soaked fol
over four months. was believed to b,
harmless. and. according to one theory
while breaking out the boxes OF unex
ploded dynamite one OF the divers mus
have roughly thrust n crowbar into
box Of the explosive which had retained
It's full force, hence the explosion.
| Another version of the affair has
that the explosion was In some way du,
to the electric light wires which wer
being used. A searching inquiry ha
been ordered.
