and the future advancement and civ
ilization of the nation.

lllzatlOn OF the nation.
Home has ever been the theme of
the poet and writer, and the song
"Home, Sweet Home," will live when
all other songs are forgotten, because
it touches tender spot in the breast
OF every human being. The Chris
tian's great attraction for the life be-
yond is his Heavenly Home" hence
he sings of it in more than one hymn.
Home is divine institution; it is not
of the earth and cannot be bought
with gold or silver. You can build
splendid house, furnish it with all the
later improvements in the way of ad-
ornment and convenience, and hire
a man and woman to do all the labor,
and yet you will not have home.
Love is what makes home and where
love is wanting there can be no home.
The love between husband and wife,
parents and children, and brother
and sisters, makes all there is of our
earthly homes. God has SO ordered
it as essential to the perpetuity and
progress of mankind that homes shall
be established, and that when the
children become of certain age they
shall leave their childhood homes
and make homes for themselves, in
which the succeeding generation
shall receive the same nurture and
training that they themselves had,
and so on down to the end of time.
One of the most critical periods in
ones life, is when the home ties that
bind him or her to the childhood
home are broken and newer and
stronger ties are formed that shall
bind him or her to their future part
ner for life. "For this cause" said
the inspired writer 'shall a man for
sake father and mother and cleave
unto his wife and they twain shall be
one flesh. What God hath joined to-
| gether let no man put asunder."
Love is of God for "God is Love"
All love is the same in essence.
The love between husband and wife
we call conjugal love; between that
parents and children we call parental
love, etc. There are some very beau
tiful figures drawn by the sacred
writer's to show the relation we sus-
tain to God and of Christ and his
church. Christ when he gave us the
Lords prayer, taught us to ay;"Our
Father who art in Heaven" st. John,
| in his vision ON the isle of Patmos, of
the Christian church, wrote, Il saw
the holy city, new Jerusalem coming
down from God out of heaven, pre-
pared as a bride adorned for her
husband" Christ in speaking of the
coming of the Son of Man (Matthew
XIV chapter) and the preparation OF
those to receive him at his coming
says: "Then shall the kingdom of
heaven be likened unto ten virgins,
which took their lamps and went
forth to meet the bridegroom. In all
of Christ's teachings, when he would
impress spiritual truths on the minds
and hearts of his hearers, he takes of
the every day things of nature to il
lustrate supernatural things, and in
all the realm of nature the love be-
tween husband and wife is taken as
the nearest type of that love that
Christ bears to the Church, which
"our blest Redeemer bought, with his
most precious blood"

SCENES IN THE LIFE OF CHRIST.
Mary of Magdala.

1t was evening on the Sea OF Galilee.
The soft waves. with tireless motion.
were ever playing with the white shells
on the beach; or kissing the sun Drowned
feet of the children, almost as tireless in
their play as the waves themselves.
The moon was just rising above the
hills across the Lake, and it's first rays
sought out boat at the waters edge.
They touched the face of a woman rest
ing in it; they brought out each line of
her rich, oriental beauty; they glided
down over the folds of her simple dress
and shapely form; they even wondered
why she slept; then. as the moon came
up full and clear, its rays revealed more;
kneeling crowd at the waters edge,
and silent figure. stealing unnoticed
away.
The rowers pulled off the boat from
the shore, back to the rocks and dove
cots of Msgdala. Mary had been healed
Jesus had new disciple, a friend who
would be with him last at the cross, and
first at the sepulchre. She did not deny
him; she did not betray him; she did
not desert him. She was only a woman,
SO she was grateful and followed him to
the end.
1t was great hour in Jesus life. Not
every day, not every year. brings forth
faithful friend.

The Home in Bethany.

In charming dell at the foot OF the
Eastern slope Of the Mount of Olives, in
the little village Of Bethany, Jesus had
his last home. The kindly mountain
rose between it and the great city of
Jerusalem; cut off the view of the Tenn
pie and palaces, and with that all men,
ory of the noise and strife. The latticed
porch in front Of the house vas covered
with vines. and they threw their check
cred light on two people, earnestly talk
ing within. They were Mary, the sister
OF Lazarus, and their guest, Jesus.
Mary was strangely forgetful that after.
noon. She forgot the work in her lap,
and the balls Of yarn rolled down and
chased each other across the floor. She
forgot that there was an evening meal to
get. forgot that her sister was working
in the other end of the house, forgot
everything, save the glorious autumn
sunshine and the companionship of
friend who talked 10 her as never before
had man spoken to woman.
1t WAS Jesus who found woman's soul.
He found in her something more than a
housewife. something higher, even, than
q mother; he found in her companion,
a human soul to be trained for nobler
life.

playing was looked for. The Cotton Ex-
change was knocked completely ont in
lne seventh IN spite Of the tie, while the
Board OF Trade men pushed their score
up four runs
In the eighth the Board Of Trade was
rather unfortunate in that its competf-
tors piled up eight successive runs which
practically decided the game. This was
que, perhaps, in part to the fact thar
Blum boomers again gave him the Slip
ana out or sympathy for the vision of the
umpire, who was just behind him. he
hastened from the field. Davant took the
pitchers box and let several men to bases
on balls, after which Capt. Whitehead
came OF first base and took the box him
sef. In the meantime. Blum returned
with a pair OF jeans trousers, but the
Cotton Exchange men refused to let him
go back into the box during the inning.
Coney made the only run for the board Of
trade in the eighth inning, though there
ought not to have been allowed a run on
account of block ball. Mr.. Curtiss,
however. did not see it in that light, and
Saussy was called out
Both sides made two runs in the ninth
as far as II was played, but il was about
f;l5 O'Clock when this inning began. Al
most everybody wanted the game called
as II was too dark to see the ball. but
there was considerable wagered on the
game, and those interested wanted TO see
II played out. The boys were playing to al
most empty benches in the grandstand
by this time. as all that was left OF the
crowd mad gathered on the field. In spite
OF several protests, however, Umpire Cur
tiss called the game before the inning was
concluded and the cotton exchange boys
gave a yell of victory. Capt. Whitehead
stated that he would protest the game on
the ground that 1t was called without his
consent.
President Carson then very generously
decorated himself with the three yards of
Grape which he had carried out for Presi-
dent KarOws benefit, and invited all
hands in to lunch at his expense at the
Commercial Club. Both teams went to the
club where they enjoyed Mr. Carson's hos
pitality for sometime before an adjourn
ment was had. The game was we'll man
aged and about $3.50 was made for the
three orphan asylums of the city.
For the benefit of professional players
who may not be up on all the points of
the game the official score in detail is

MATINEE AND NIGHT.
Two More Performances VIII Com
Glade Mabel Paige's Engagement.

Performances this afternoon and to-
night will end the engagement of the Ma
bel Paige Comedy Company. When
the curtain falls on the perform
ance tonight the company will
have played here nine times in
a week and to business that must be
very pleasing to the management. Popu-
lar prices and a. small but clever COM
pany have won a good return in solid
coin for the weeks efforts.
The play last night, like those that have
gone before it, was presented before a
numerous and good-natured audience The
little star increased her popularity, if it
was possible for her to do so, by her in
telligent conception of the character she
played, and the vivacity with which she
played it. Miss Paige has won the dis
tinguished consideration of Savannah
audiences, who hope and expect within
a few years to see her one of the cleverest
and most popular soubrettes in the BUSH
ness. A few years will add the needed
strength and fullness to her voice.
The play last night The Runaway Girl,
is written by Mr.. NJ. A. Mosely and Miss
Mary NJ. Ward. At the matinee to-day
Little Miss Mischief will be given and to-
night Daphne the Dancing Statue.

Coryel Bartholomew, of jackson,
proposes to make the trip, and he
brings to his assistance in doing 1t the
experience of a lifetime in aerostation.
de came into prominence as an aero
naut in 1890, when he toured the world
with the Chicago and all-America base
ball teams, giving hot-air balloon ascen-
sions and parachute drops. His trip in
this particular was series of remark
able successes, and gained for him in
all the principal countries of the old
world reputation for daring and skill.
Since that time he has been engaged in
business in Jackson, and he has spent
much time in perfecting various prac-
teal inventions in the line of air navi-
cation.

new proposes to ride over the falls re-
sembles a huge dumb-bell in appear
ance. A hollow shaft of thin steel 100
feet long acts as an axle to two spheres
As feet in diameter, allowing enough
room on the shaft between the NAM
moth balls for trapeze which will be
secured in such a manner as to allow
the spheres and axle to revolve at will
without inconvenience to the occupant
of the trapeze bar. The spheres referred
to will be constructed on a steel frame
and will be covered with rubber, and
over that a layer of cork to prevent
punctures upon sharp rocks. Inside Of
each will be a gas balloon as large as
the interior will admit, and when these
balloons are inflated with hydrogen gas
1t is estimated that the structure will
have a lifting power of five tons. A
sufficient amount of movable ballast
will be attached to the shaft on either
side of the trapeze to keep the machine
from rising from the water as 1t floats
down the river. When the verge of the
precipice is reached and the plunge Is
made the ballast will be gradually re-
leased, thus allowing the continuance
to slowly settle to the bottom of the
falls. If 1t is found that the force Of
the water has been underestimate the
inventor intends to release all ballast
and make one of the most notable bal
loon ascensions known to history.

their friends. Sometimes, when such
favorites are badly injured, it seems
necessary to kill them. But London
man, E. Mosely, has a dog whose left
fore paw was crushed so badly that am
putation at the knee became necessary,
and yet, in order to enable it to get
about and enjoy life few years more,
he had an artificial leg made for it,
out of aluminium and white buckslSin
laced up behind, with a soft rubber
sole. The leg is jointed at the right
places, and is provided with a mechan.
ism that initiates the natural spring OF
the foot, so that the dog can trot along
nicely without noise or jar.
