Rev. MIR. Talnage, the greas -
lyn preacher, eald In a sermon deliver
cd a few days ago, that length Of days
on the part Of great many men, was
not desirable. The assertion seemed
rather singular, but 1t may neverthe.
less DO true. He argued that recti.
tude in youth and even in middle life
is no guarantee or good character anu
honest dealings in old age. This is in
contraventlon OF the familiar saying
Just as the twlg Is bent the tree Is In
clined. "and bring up a..child In the way
he should oand when he Is old no will
not depart therefrom." Many yoan e
men who have held positions of honor
and profit, resisting temptations for
many years. and standing high In the
sommunlty, have at last fallen, be-
srayed their trust, sbstractei money
without warrant. and gone down to
nlshonored graves. We have had toe
many examples Of evil doing to con.
trovert his conclusion.
Too many apparently honest men
aave become thieves, too many tenn
9erate ones have become drunkards
too many church members have fallen
from grace, and become swearers and
gamblers. In all such cases 1t would
have been better had they died before
iapsing from virtue. as death is prefer
able to dishonor. 1t is better to &C
down to an early grave. bearing a goot
name, than to be confined In jail as a
criminal. 1t seems that too many
men are as weak as water and un,
stable as the wind. therefore those
who think they are strong should TAX,
heed lest they fall. Hence the I'm.
portance of avoiding temptat ion, ant

BATTLED FOR THE RIG HIT
GLADSTONE REVIEWS HIS POLIT-
ICAL CAREER.
He Was Always Governed by Upright
ness of Intention and n Desire to
Learn-He WIN Rsmsinin
Parliament.

LONDON, March 21.--Mr. Gladstone
recently received an address from his
constituents in Midlothian, in which he
was requested to continue to represent
that borough in the house of commons.
Replying, Mr.. Gladstone has written a
letter declaring his chief desire will be
to follow the Wishes OF the constituents
he represents. He adds: "There will
naturally be q change in my attendance
in parliament. l cannot yet judge how
far my sight and hearing will disable me
from performing parliamentary duties
As to the merits or dement's of my
career, and certainly have been charge
able with many errors OF judgment, l
hope l have at least been governed by
uprightness ofintention and desire to
learn"
Proceeding to review his public life OF
go years, dating from Lord Gorby'e re-
form act, which he describes as the DO.
litical birth of Scotland and tho begin
ming OF duty which he had solemnly
recognized, Mr.. Gladstone says his
career has been history of political,
economical. social, moral and intellectual
emancipation. He adds that in all the
numberless causes that had been brought
forward in this time Scotland has battled
for the right.
Continuing. he says: II am deeply
convinced that until the just demands
of Ireland are satisfied, as the house of
commons tried to satisfy them, neither
the Legislative wants OF any portion of
the united kingdom will be adequately
met, nor will the empire attain the max
imum power nor its honor be effectively
cleared of the deepest historic stain
ever attached to it,"
Gladstone has consulted an eminent
oculist. 1t is understood he believes an
operation may be performed without
danger.
The operation will be performed upon
Mr.. Gladstone's eyes in about three
months.

SANEANDER. Spain, March 21.-An-
other fatal accident occurred here today,
caused by an explosion of dynamite.
Ever since the awful disaster that oc-
Cured in this city on the night OF No.
vember Sd last, when the Spanish steam
or Csbo Machicsco was blown up by the
explosion of a part OF large consign-
ment OF dynamite on board of her, the
wrecked hull of the vessel has been lying
at the bottom of the bay. 1t was dis
covered by divers who went down in
search of the bodies Of some OF those who
were killed at the time, that consider
able quantity of dynamite was still in
the wreck. This was considered men
ace to shipping. and the authorities de-
termined to have it removed. Today
while a number OF workmen were en-
gagged in the work of taking the dy-
Mantle from the hull an explosion
occurred, and several of the men were
killed.
The loss of life occasioned by the die
aster last November has never been
accurately ascertained. 1t is known,
however, that the list OF dead, missing
and wounded numbered nearly
thousand. The Machicaco was lying
alongside a wharf discharging a part of
her cargo, which consisted OF general
merchandise, including iron ore, -four
and petroleum in cases. While this
work was going on, the steamer took
fire, and the blaze attracted large crowds
to the water front. officers and men
went to the assistance of the 6remen,
who had been hastily summoned.
Suddenly there was a deafening roar
and the steamer disappeared. The
slaughter among the spectators was
frightful. Houses along the water
front were either completely destroyed
by the shock of the explosion or else 80
badly damaged as to be unfit for occupa-
ton. Large quantities of burning oil
were thrown into the city, and at one
tins it appeared ga ii tine whole place
would be destroyed. Fortunately, how
ever, a change in the wind prevented
this, but terrible damage had been
done. A hundred small vessels
sank in the harbor. and
number OF others, including the
merchant steamer Alfonso XIII,
caught fire from the rain of flaming oil
and burned. Forty of the crew of the
Alfonso lost their lives. Mangled and
blackened corpses were scattered along
the quay, and the scene was one that
detied description. Among the dead
was Don Manuel de la Pena, the provin-
cisl governor, and number OF other
officials. Just as the ship blew up a
railway train arrived at the station, a
considerable distance from the scene of
the explosion. This train was completely
wrecked, set on fire and most of its pas
senRers burned to death.
