The Grange Movement.
Some years after the close of the war
had permitted our material development
to so forward with great leaps and
bounds, it began to be discovered that
there were no limits to the power of
railroad corporations. There We're act
ually those who asserted that the
making of rates was an exercise Of the
sole power of the railroad; and that,
although the people might protest. they
could not in any way limit or interfere
with this power without denying the
right of private property and endanger-
ing vested interests. It was as protest
against this that the farmers "Granges'
were started; and the Granger move

the war through the courts, until the
highest tribunal in the United States
had affirmed the right of the people,

road charges and compel the fixing of
reasonable rates. It was a good fight

The Princess Had Aspirations.

When any sickness is on the way, the
Duchess OF Teck likes 10 rank herself
as belonging TO the nursing profession

her epic youth. when. like every one
else, she intended her life to be simple
unique, and devoted, she imagined she
had mission for nursing She did not
intend to do by halves what she would
very willingly have renOunced the world
10 do with her whole heart. But the
idea OF lady's devotion to nursing
as an occupation was a startling one
in the middle OF the century. and the
Queen. who influenced the middle of
the century, and was Influenced by it,
refused afectionate!y but firmly her
consent TO her cousins project for Il
career. Her majesty even used the word
"unwOmanly" in describing that career
from which one may suppose that
Florence Nightingale and her band had
not yet given a decorous poetry to nurs-
ing as vocation for the educated wo-
man. No doubt the Queen also judged
that the young princess could not he

the grandmother of kings. And this
week she has recalled with smiles the

young ambition was denied So seope.

The EnsV Yoke

Christ saw that man took life pain
fully. TO some it was WEAKNESS 10
others, n failure. to all struggle anu
pain. How to carry this burden Of life
had been the whole worlds problem
II Is still the whole worlds problem
And here is Chrst's solution: Carry
it as / do Take life as | take il. Look
at il from my point OF view. Take my
yoke and learn OF me. and you viii hnd
II easy
Did you ever stop to ask what a yoke
is really for? is 1t 10 be burden to
the animal which wears it, Ii is just
the opposite. 1t is to make its burden
light. Attached to- the oxen in any
other way than by a yoke. the plow
would be intolerable. Worked by the
means Of a yoke. IT is light. n yoke
is not an instrument OF torture; It Is
an instrument Of mercy. II is not a
malicious contrivance for making work
hard il is q gentle device to make Ia
Dor light. II is nOt-meant TO give pain,
but 10 save pain.
And yet men speak OF the yoke OF
Christ as If it were a slavery, and look
upon those who wear 1t as objects OF
compassion. Take my yoke upon you,
and learn OF me; for / am meek and
lowly in heart; and ye shall md rest
unto your souls For my yoke is easy,
and my burden is light."-Drummond.

Eichhoff after an exciting chase. The
desperadoes were in the city all day
trading and selling horses at a public

known the streets were at once filled with
armed marshaIs. Watching for a good or,-

horse and dashed out of the city but was
caught and brought back. A running
fire was kept up all the time the
chase was on No one was hurt Sylvia

PAID FOR THE BONDS
Edward Edes Prods His Memory
and Makes an. Explanation.
He Shows that Subscribers to the
Northern Pacific Loan Paid 80 Cents
on the Dollar for Their Bonds.

NEW YORK. May 12.-The investigation
into the affairs of the Northern Pacific rail-
road was continued to-day. Yesterdays
hearing closed with half promise from
James Mcknight. of counsel for the re-
ceivers, TO explain away the damaging inn
pressions produced during the day by the
unfortunate lapses in the memory OF Ed
ward Edes. assistant secretary and treas
urer Of the defunct Oregon & Transconti-
mental and by the extraordinary manner in
which the books of that corporation had
been kept From the data produced ii was
impossible to say whether any individual
subscriber TO the bonds had or had not paid
for his bonds. Mr. Mcknight suggested
that 1t would be found that the missing
millions had been received by the Chicago
& Northern Pacific railroad through the
United States Trust Company. and request
ed the production before the master to-day
OF the records referring to the transactions
between these two corporations.
Mr.. Edes again took the stand and pro-
duced a memorandum made UP by him from
notes made at the time. stating the names
of the subscribers to the nine millions of
bonds, the amounts OF money paid by each
and the quantity of bonds received by each.
This statement appears to show that all
the subscribers who were supplied with
bonds through the Oregon & Transconti-
mental paid for their holdings at the mar
ket price OF 30 cents on the dollar.
Mr.. Mcknight. In pursuance OF his prom
ise Of yesterday. called attention to an
agreement. which was among the papers
filed late yesterday afternoon. but which
the master said he had not noticed, which
stated that during the consolidation Of the
Chicago a Great Western and other prop
critics into the Chicago & Northern Pacific
and the issuance or the s2ooeo.o0o of bonds
used to pay for the separate properties so
consolidated 10 was agreed that the portion
paid for the Chicago & Great Western
should be handled through the United
Stases Trust Companys agents. These
bonds amounted to over $ll 600 600, and II
this agreement was carried out all the SO
