Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1895-07-05

A Piece of Newspaper Enterprise.
Your editorial of Thursday regarding
the assassination of President Garfield
reminds me of one certain Saturday
afternoon in Tionesta, Forest county,
Pennsylvania, a town in. the numbering
region. Word came over the wires that
the president had been killed. All was
excitement and full particulars were
wanted: No Sunday trains ran on the
road at that time. How to get the full
particulars was the question. Finally a
SPOT was made up and a team hired
and I vas sent over the mountains and
through the forests to Titusville, thirty
five miles, for the then petroleum
World" On arriving at the Office of
the paper, everything was excitement;
printers we're scarce and I was told to
take off my coat and grab a rule and
stick and get at the case. Ibid this and
for my pains had the first copy Of the
paper that rolled from the cylinder.
Finally at four in the morning I had a
bundle Of 800 papers and started back
for the home town. I will never forget
that nights ride through the tall pines.
l knew that every person at home would
be out for information. About eight in
the morning I reached the long bridge
that crossed the Allegheny river and
such a pushing and scrambling for the
still damp papers I have never seen
since. Enough to say that every person
read a full account of the memorable
tragedy. r. D. HosK1Ns.

The Sin Of FrettiuS.

There is one sin which seems to me
is everywhere and by everybody under
estimated, and quite too much over
looked in valuations of character. 1t is
as common as air, as speech, so com
mon that unless it rises above its usu'
al monotone we do not even observe
it. Watch any ordinary coming to-
gether of people, and see how many
minutes it will he before somebody
frets-that is, makes more or less com
planning statement of something or 9th
er which probably everyone in the
room, or in he car, or the street cor
ner, it may be, knew before, and proba'
bly, nobody can help. Why say any
thing about il! 1t is cold, it is hot, it is
wet. it is dry somebody has broken an
appointment,i ill cooked a meal stupidl
ty or bad faith somewhere has resulted
in discomfort.
There are plenty Of thing to fre1
about. 1t is simply astonishing. how
much annoyance may he found in the
course of every days living, even al
the simplest, if one only keeps a SHARP
eye out on that side Of things. Even
holy writ says we are prone to trouble as
sparks fly upward. But even to the
sharks flying upward. in the blnckes
of smoke, there is a blue sky above
and the less time they waste on the
road, the sooner they will reach it
Fretting is all time wasted on the road

WESLEYAN Advocate.)

We have heard frequent complaint
of late that pastors not Methodlsts
aloneJ were not visiting the neople in
their fields as they should. This is no
new complaint, but that statement
does not settle the question. Nor Is it
settled by saying that the demand for
pastoral visiting is an old fogy notion.
Every new way is not a good, way by
any means nor is every old fogy no.
ton bad notion. We know that un-
reasonable demands are often made on
pastors in their laborinns work, but
the recognition OF that fact does not
excuse any unnecessary neglect OF
duty in that way. Pastoral visiting is
q part of the economy of the Meth
dist church, and Il part to which she Is
largely indebted for her success. 1t Is
second to no other. 1t is perhaps safe
to say that as many souls have been
saved in that way, and as many
troubled hearts cOmfOrted, as by pulpit
ministrations. We would magnify the
pulpit, but where is the pastors pulpit.
when it comes to preaching the real
gospel? He ought TO carry it like the
Master, wherever he goes, and he
ought to 20 wherever Christ is needed
and humanity can he helped. The
bedside, or tireside, or roadside preach.
ing il oftener than otherwise the best
that is done. The pastor who does not
visit his flock as much as possible, Is a
poor pastor. He may be fine pulpit
performer, but his performances will
not amount to much. There is toe
,nuoh Of stake in This matter to admit
of any neglect or trifiing.

The mora lipht admitted TO apart

The more light admitted to apart
ments the better for those who occupy
them. Light is as necessary to sound
health as it is to vegetable life. Ex-
clude it from plants, ana the conse-
uuences are disastrous. They cannot
be perfect without its vivifying intlu-
ence. 1t is fearful mistake to curtain
and blind windows so closely, for fear
of injuring the furniture by exposure
to the suns rays such rooms posi-
lively gather elements in darkness
which engender disease. Let i'm the
light often, and fresh air, too, or suffer
the penalty of aches and pains and
long doctors bills which might have
been avoided.

not heretofore grown the finer head
varieties of lettuce in your kitchen

fairly well grown tie up the heads and
blanch them until they are crisp
white, tender and delicious.

(The Guardian.)

It used to be thought a virtue fol
Christians to hold fast the form OF
sound words. Now all this is chang
ed. 1t is wrong 10 condemn any one
for his views, no matter how false you
believe them to be. The current way
of describing such conduct is to call il
condemning a man because he does
not happen to believe as you do. Bul
it might be replied that when we pro-
nounce an unfavOrable opinion Of
what any one teaches, we do not con-
denim the man for not thinking az we
do, but we condemn views we believe
to be false and misleading. Is is moi
right that we should do this? Has
not every Methodist minister solemn
ly vowed TO drive away all false doc
trines contrary to Gods word? Are
we not to dare to have conscientious
belief as to what is truth, or what is
falsehood Our convictions as to
what is true are not things that have
no right TO be heard. They are the
guiding principles of our lives. The
duty of maintaining the truth implies
opposing and condemning what We
believe TO he false.

Did you ever see an irresponsive
child? You remember how he set his
teeth together, and looked at you with
a smile that said, MAKE me talk II
you can." And you took the dare and
failed. Not even a stick of candy
could prize open his mouth. You felt
like shaking him: Did you ever see
ali irresponsive Church member? He
pays his quarterage, and settles him

Now. Pm DONE" The preacher
urges this duty and that, but they are
not for him. The preacher makes this
proposition and that. but be hears
them not. He takes nothing, responds
to nothing. He is the exception to all
rules. The preacher may beg him on
his knees, but he will not move: to
the smallest request he returns stony
gaze. He is playing-magnificently
playing-the mule. You feel like

If we lose sight of the fact that
Jesus was touched with the feeling of
our infirmities," that he was hungry,
and weary, that he needed sleep and
rest. and that his works of healing
and helping tended to his physical ex-
haustion,, we fail of gaining the com
fort from sense Of his sympathy with
US in our tolls and trials that the Bible
story entities us to enjoy. Yet there
are Christians who seem to lose sight
of the true humanity Of Jesus. and of
the Bible teachings on that subject.
