BRlMSTONE AND OTHER FIRE
WORKS.

Let me speak in detail about the fire"
referred to by our Lord and show that 1t
VIII not be real fire ana that 1t will not
be "everasting" And first OF the fire"
Myriads Of persons assert that 1t will
be the genuine article 1.-The tlre," say
they, "and nothing but the fire, and that
for evermore." They never reason out
the matter and many even of those who
understand Greek never take the trouble
to see what the original says They
simply believe themselves and try to
make others believe, that there is a
great furnace or burning lake, or some
thing of the sort, awaiting the wicked,
into which, unless they repent, and that
in good time, the Great Executioner WIZ
ere.ong cast them, and in which they
win spend all eternity in untold suffering
and agony.
And this delightful belief regarding the
ultimate fate of the majority of mankind
is one of very long standing. 1t was
held by, among others, a host of the
fathers st. C1rysostom, for instance,
testihes as foIows The sea that awaits
them Is the sea of the Ibottom.ess pit,
where the punishment is not accompanied
with irsensibility and where there is no
suffocation to end all. But in ever
heightened torture, In burning, in strang-
ling, they are consumed there. A river
OF fire rolls between him, the undying
worm unquenchaole fire. out Of dark
ness, gnadi'lng of teeth. Although you
shoud be angry WITH me ten thousand
times for mentioning these things | shah
not cease from speaking OF them" For
tunate.y however, he has ceased now.
Another dignitary of the early church,
st. Ephrem, delivers himself of these
encouraging observations; That fire
wi,Ilch is unquenchab,e, not consuming
what 1t devoureth for 1t was not ap-
pointed to consume, but to cause suffer-
ing and agony. 1t burneth with mingled
darkness Chew fire can burn with dark
ness we VIII not pause to inquire) and
gnashing OF teeth. 1t devoureth 1t vast
eth, 1t causeth suffering, and Is not ex-
tinguished, FOR 1t Is forever and ever,
as II Is written"
Eusebous Gallcanus, another of the
fathers favors us with the following in
formation on this important subject;
"Too late Shall We he disp,eased with
ourselves in sight OF the eternal fire,
which win scorch our bones and marrow,
and thoughts" st. Augustine's views are.
as Is WEI known, precisely similar. Let
us proceed lastly to the venerable st.
Anseim mot a Father by the by), who,
with uplfted bands and venerable coun-
tenance cries out to us as follows: "Hor-
ror, horrorl o fire of birthstone, flames
of he'd, dark volumes of smoke, with
nov terrible rol,ings do 1 see you roll
along! worms living in the fire
(Which, by the way, they rarely do) what

many has always engaged annually in
these displays. but this year they seem
TO be on a more extended scale and Of a
more practical order than ever before
The mere drilling of men In the handling
OF new and improved arms and the mass
ing OF them on mimic battle fields has
not been enough The fordng OF rivers
and the passage of other obstacles that
wou,d be likely TO be met with In a
real campaign have each formed pari
OF the soldiers duties, and the evident
aim OF the young Emperor Is to bring
the military arm OF Germany up to a
point OF efficiency and perfection that
would cast the equipment OF the rest OF
Europe into the shade.
There Is no wonder that these displays
are being carefully watched all over the
continent. France especially has been
rufiied OF tate. The communication OF
her defeat by Germany at Sedan caused
old wounds TO reopen. and these maneu-
vers cannot have helped to sOoth the
angry feeslng. Ard when Fran.e knows
that Austria can Gait 10000 men into
the field. and that she, as wei as Italy,
are the allies OF Germany, there Is little
wonder that she Is ksen-eyea and watch

small and Insignificant beside those Of

The Great Western railroad of Eng
gand hais just had to pay $5OO,OOO TO free
Itself from THE obligation to stop every
train ait Swlndon station for ten minutes,
In 1874, before the road had reached
Bristol, it made an agreement for nine
nine years with firm of builders to hold
every train carrying passengers, mot be,
Ing sent express or for special purposes
for Al reasonable period of about ten min
utes,' at Swlndon. in consideration OF
the erection OF suitable refreshment
rooms, for which rent of a penny a
year was to be paid. The railroad soon
found out the Inconvenience OF the ar
rangement and tried to break 1t. The
courts in 1876 and lS72 held that express
did not mean In the contract what Is now
meant by an express train; but the price
asked Off the annulment OF the conces-
sion was always more than the company
was willing to pay. After a fight OF over

the competition of other roads to buy
out its opponents and the ten-minute stop
Of fast expresses at Swlndon is now a

ANOTHER FA1nAcY SHOWN UP.

Every one knows the free trade theory
that '.H we don not buy we can not SELL "
as applied to our foreign trade. In other
words, that II we manufacture In this
country all the articles required to sup
ply ourselves, without importing amy
from foreign countries then the latter
wilG not buy our farm products or manu-
factured goods.
This theory might have some basis,
es has been shown again and again In
the past, N international trade were the
sane as trade between individual per-
sons. But II Is not. The Trenchman
who sells silks 10 American importers
does not deal in American wheat, or
packed meats, or any other of our ex-
ports; the importer in New York who
buys OF him does not have them to sell.
Per contra, the English grain impotEer
who buys American grain is not dealer
in manufactured goods. He buys foreign
wheat when ne can to the best advan-
tage, without reference to where Ameri-
cans buy the goods they need.
The American Economist has pune
tured this free trade fallacy. 1t shows
by the actual figures dts baselessness.
Taking the statistics of our import and
export trade for the fiscal years ending
Jue 80. 1894 and 1896. as supplied by the
bureau Of statistics OF the treasury de-
partment, It finds that our imports from
European countries during the two years

the people of Florida. According to
Mr.. Wombwell's report, the condition
OF the orange trees, as compared with
that of last year, is So per cent, and
the prospective yield 81 per cent.
AS we had a five million box crop last
year, we will, according to these figures,
have O5O,O00 boxes this year. In the
matter of the more tender lemon, we
are still better off, as Mr.. Wombwell
says we will have a Sd per cent. crop
over half as many as we had last sea-
son; and lines, too, are not nearly as
bad off as we feared, as the prospective
yield is given at Sd per cent. But, per-
haps, the best joke of all will be found
In the grape fruit column. In this col
umn the condition of the trees is given at
% per bent. and the prospective yield at
3d. We regret exceedingly to be under
the necessity of questioning the correct
ness of these figures. We wish the con.
dltlon OF the groves and the prospective
yield were as good or even better than
stated, but we know that they are not,
and we hope the following figures on
crop prospects are more ;eliable than

dition of citrus fruits.
