Taylor gave his people at social meet
ing:
A Scottish lord on one occasion was
entertaining a distinguished friend at
dinner While the two we're sitting at
the table, the guest noticed an unusual
amount OF silvorwaro on the table aud
on the sideboard. IL was all bright aud
beautiful and seemed to the observer OF
unusual fineness and value. How is
this. my lord, whom did you Obtain all
this silvers" "Oh," he replied, "it is our
plate, but It's singular brightness is due
70 my butler" lie then led his guest
to the pantry 70 show him his treasures
there. just then the butler came IN
and was introduced. The distinguished
visitor spoke to him kindly and inquired
with a show OF interest what was the
secret Of such extraordinary neatuess
and order. The butler, coloring. said:
IL will tell you, sir, the secret. Lately
| was led TO become a loyal subject Of
the great master, and as l wanted TO
please him. It occurred TO me TO try TO
do my every day work better than | had
done before"
This fervid speech Of the butler and
his modest manner affected the visitor
SO much that he was led to personal re-
Elections. lie soon after gave his own
allegiance to the great master When
the famous Spurgeon through him
heard OF this conduct OF the reformed
butler, he sent 10 Scotland for him, and
persuaded him TO come to London as
his helper Tie butler then became
famous for bis effective Christian labors, 1
under the supervision Of his new friend |
and pastor.
The young mans lesson in epigram is
this: DO daily work ever better, that il |
may show loyalty TO him who controls
the fountain Of good.

WONDERFUL GOLD DISCOVERIES.
Western Australia Stories Which Read Like
Fairy Tales.


The stories Of wonderful gold discov-
cries in western Australia were con-
firmed by an official dispatch Thursday.
The details Of the principal find near
Coolgardie had already reached Lon
don. A party Of six were returning from
an unsuccessful prospecting tour on May
s. When in camp one night, they sep
arated to test and examine the neigh
borhood. A man named Mills camo to
one of the many large "blows' which
are characteristic of the country. He
was astonished on rubbing his hand
across a protruding piece OF stone to 500
gold standing cut prominently. He
knocked large piece off asbowlder, and
at his feet lay magnificent specimen
literally studded with coarse gold, while
before him, dazzling his eyes, was a
magnificent reef OF almost nure gold,
fortune in itself Mills, taking several
pieces from the reef, placed them in his
bosom, and carefully covering the reef
with earth found his mates. On the
next morning 25 acres were pegged off,
and the adjoining blocks at each end
were also taken up. One man went to
town and bought a dolly, the largest he
could procure. In one day they dollied
1000 ounces, and in short time had
nearly 500, 900 worth of ore. On June
23 they packed it in cart and landed
the treasure at the Union bank. The
manager weighed the gold, and it turn
ed the scales at 4, $50 ounces.
A few days after the discovery be-
came public. One lump has been taken
from the reef containing more gold than
ore. 1t weighed $40 POUNDS and is
worth 500, 000 OF course there is i'm
mense excitement in the region, and
many other discoveries are reported, but
there is unlikely to be anything left for
late comers. --IO london Letter

Tho annual disclosure Of tho latef.
discoveries in various branches Of scio.icc
being made at the convention Of the
British association, Oxford, is an inter
esting budget. Lord Salisbrrys s address
at tho opening Of the conference TT
tracts widespread attention. Ho pro-
claimed himself a scientific agnostic.
but the mcst remarkable feature Of his
paper was his outlining of the marvels
Of unsolved problems to which modern
science is now deyoting itself. He paid
a sympathetic tribute to Darwin's great
work, but refused to acknowledge the
jellylsh as his ancestor on any evidence
yet offered. He attacked Weissmann's
theory of natural selection in evolution
and affirmed that the present day has
brought return TO the belief that crca-
tive design was supreme.
1t has been in these meetings of the
several divisions of the convention that
the latest discoveries and theories have
been presented. A year ago the biolo-
gists, who had believed for years that
they were on tho point Of solving the
mystery Of life, acknowledged them
selves bahied. Now Professor Schaefer,
president of the section of physiology.
announces tho discovery in each tiny
animal cell containing life of what he
terms IAN attraction particle. Itshould
be remembered that when the biologists
discovered the cell principle of lifo they
thought it impossible to subdivido these
infinitely small atoms, but the micro
scope has shown the existence of this
small particle in each cell, which il
itself structure sui generis, having a
definite existence and definite function
Of it's own. 1t is almost as minute an
object as it is possible to conceive. In
cell which is magnitied 1000 diane
ters the central particle appears mcrely
of the size of o pin point. Yet this al
most infinitely small object exerts an
extraordinary influence oyer the whole
cell, which may be many thousand times
it's size. 1t initiates and directs those
processes which result in the multiple
cation Of cells, and indirectly therefore
it is concerned in directing the general
growth of the individual and ultimate
~ tho propagation Of species. 1t is
shown, then, that the principle of life
is contained in o particle 1000 times
smaller than the smallest object which
the best microscopes of few years ago
were able to perceive, and the latest
name for the unsolved mystery of life
is ian attraction particle. New York

: clRcuMsTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
A Young Lady Who Had Narrow Escape
from Conviction.

from Conviction.
.'Stories of conviction ON circumstan-
tial evidence are rife in the lawbooks
and have afforded the plot of many a
novel;" said ]. S. Haberling of New
York. "a very sad case, not of con-
viotion, but almost as bad in its results,
occurred in New York recently. A
young lady of refinement, stranger in
the city, obtained employment as gov
erness in gentleman's family. One Of
her pupils, girl 15 years old, lost a
diamond ring. 1t was found i'll the
desk Of the governess She declared
she had not seen it since it was last on
the girls hand, but she was hustled off
to the Tombs, and unable to give bond
was kept there several days, exposed to
the companionship Of the most depraved
of her sex. She was taken to court in
the Black Maria with negress and a
white woman, both convicted felons, 60
ing to be sentenced. She was kept in
the pen waiting for her case to be called,
exposed to the impudent gaze Of the
horde of courtroom loafers.
"When her case was called, the court
appointed lawyer to defend her, as she
was penniless. The prosecuting witness
ard her father told the story of the find
ing of the missing ring. The presump-
tion that the accused had placed it there
was more or less strong until the law
yer began TO crcia question the owner of
the ring. Guessing at the truth, by
adroit questioning he drew from the
unwilling witness the fact that she had
often pried into the desk and dressing
case drawers Of the governess, and that
she had been SO ongcged an hour or SO
before she missed her ring, and the fur
ther fact that tho ring fitted loosely.
The judge dismissed the case promptly,
and the accuser's father apologized, but
the. young woman, being of q highly
strung and nervous temperament, was
completely Frustrated by her terrible
experience in the Tombs, and the i'll
Affects will. it is feaSed, be permanent

desire to sell the S2,000,0 600 palace
which he has just completed III New
York is his belief in the old supersti-
tion that old men who grow rich build
fine houses for their funerals. He OK
pected to move in three years ago, but
it was only last year that the house be-
gan to got near completion. In the
meantime his health had become less
and less vigorous. His age and his years
of hard work and worry began to tell
upon him. Tho superstition camo back
with renewed force, and he began to
think great deal about it. At last he
became absolutely convinced that should
he move III the first function to which
his friends would come would be his fu-
neral. Then he decided that he would
not even keep the house in The family.
