NELSON NORRIS, of Chicago, received
one New Years gift that he would pre-
fer to be without. 1t came in the shape
of cablegram from his agent at Ant
werp and conveyed the unwelcome news
that the Belgian Government has pro-
hibited the importation of live cattle
from the United States on the ground
that pleuro- pneumonia is prevalent in
this country. This closes all the ports
of continental Europe against American
cattle and beef products and leaves to
the exporter only the British market,
which. in it's present condition, is not a
desirable one. An embargo on dressed
beef and packed goods has been in force
in most of the European countries for
some time, and its effect has been to
seriously cripple our foreign trade, but
now it has been extended to the prohi-
bition Of live cattle, the export business
will be completely paralyzed. At least
this is the conclusion of Mr.. Morris, and
he should be good judge, as he is the
largest exporter Of cattle and beef in the
United States.

THE PURPOSE OF GOD.
BY j. SMITH DODGE, DID.

This Is a very comprehensivework.
With the mind of one who conf
dence in God and sympathy with
man is unbounded. the author covers
the whole gamut of Christian philos-
ophy. The divine and human rela-
tons are presented In manner
that satisfies the understanding. and
appeals to the heart. The believer
confirmed in faith and tn doubter
is brOughtnearer to belief. There is
no dogmatlsm. but the various sub
jests. which point to the benefieence
of God. are treated in that broad and
liberal manner natural to one who
takes rounded view of humanity.
and looks upon God as true father
rather than theological mystery.
This book will recommend itself to
readers of all denominations; and TO
any who NAV claim to be of no
churehitw lappeal with equalforee

MINISTER KuRINo, of Japan, said in
Washington yesterday that in his judg-

no abatement in the war between Japan
and China until the peace plenipoten-
tiaries have actually assembled, have
formulated some basis which will war
rant cessation of hostilities, and have
themselves asked for an armistice. Mr..
Kurino received unofficial information
at an early hour yesterday morning that a
manifesto had been presented to the
Japanese Parliament by the Liberal
party, breathing the war spirit, and ask
ing the government to push ON to Pekin
before consenting to an armistice.
There is much talk of an immediate
armistice, continued Mr.. Kurino, (which
is likely to cause misrepresentation. L
see no likelihood Of an armistice until
the plenipotentiaries have met and
agreed to request such action, together
with some preliminary understanding to
indicate the advisability of terminating
hostilities. l am not officially advised
that this was the course, but it seems
the necessary and only one. 1t is GER
tain there will be no hurried armistice
before it is known what the plenipoten-
tiaries are really likely to accomplish"

CAUGHT UNDER CARS.
]. M. Bell, a Switchman, Meets a Horrible Death at Smiths Ore
 Mines.

An ugly wreck occurred yesterday morning at Smiths mines, six miles be- low the city, on the Birmingham Mineral road, which resulted in the death of J. M. Bell. a well known young man, who was a member of the train crew, and wreckng of several cars.
 Switch engine No. 234, in charge of Engineer Buford, with Conductor Norton in charge of the train, was pulling out some cars from No 9 mine, when, it seems, the rails spread and the engine and four cars attached to it, left the track. Bell was on one of the cars and attempted to jump, but was caught under the overturning cars and his life crushed out before assistance could reach him.
 His body was mass of bruises and one leg badly crushed. His remains were brought to the city and turned oyer to Miller x Co., for preparation for inter- ment
 Bell was very popular here and had many friends in the city,

prrnIIo OPINION vs. Law.

The enforcement of the Sunday law in New York has started a move of reform that will sweep over the country That is the history of all social waves. AL ready Chicago is following the example of New York. The newspapers are full of these reform movements, and thus the eontagion spreads. Chicago has law that has long lain dormant, just as the New York law was imperative for long time, and an effort will be made to en- force it. The. statute books are full of imperative laws. In Alabama, for in stance, there is law prohibiting a man from pursuing his ordinary vocation on Sunday. The only exception is in the case of drug stores. If this law was strictly enforced it would stop all the fur naces on Sunday, close up all the fruit stands and rob the public of those pleas ures and privileges that are considered almost necessities. The law is never stricly enforced, because the grand jury never finds. a true bill against those who violate the law The grand jury recog- nizes the force of public opinion. which is in favor of necessary work going on and demands certain privileges on Sun day. Then there is law against gam bling, which. if strictly enforced, would stop many pleasant card parties. Public opinion is the ruler in these United States of America

heaven. Is 1t not very desirable that we seek this plane of understanding? Is it not time to ask: "Who am 1? What am I?'
 Is there harmony for me right here and now? Am I truely spiritual be- ing? Is the kingdom of God within ''me?" Am I a son of God by divine right? Is it true that Jesus is my elder brother? Can I overcome as he did9 Had he more of God than 1 can ever have? Did he not say, "Ye are the sons of God?' Did he not promise that his disciples should do ali that he did, and "more?" Am I his disciple in thought, word and deed? Can I pray without ceasing and in everything give thanks? Can l be perfect even as my heavenly Father is perfect? Can I lay up treasures of harmony and peace? Did not my elder Brother say unto me" Where I am, there ye may be also?" Can I use my ''one" talent with all my might and make it two? Can I use my two" and increase it to four? Cam I make my five" "ten?' Dear reader all these questions may be answered Yes" and that assurance re- verberates throughout the whole universe of God.
 Do you realize that angels are this mo- ment waiting your decision? Some are ready with their lamps filled and burn ing, or their understanding clarified, and tbeir Fathers will is their own.
 They are waiting to enter into their higher consciousness, which is the bride groom. They are about to unite will to understanding, which is the celestial marriage.
 And for those who are not ready the door will open again sometime" when 'husks" no longer satisfy. Heaven is within them also.
