ceived Us from the obedient service of our earthstained pilgrimage, and led Us into the sudden burst of his glorious manifested presence to be forever with
 him, will no doubt he forever precious to our rememb mbrance; but far, far more dearly, it seems to me, shall we cheri~h
 the time when in our human life, in the common, earthly place, Jesus first met
 our souls, which he had been always
 seeking, and in that meeting taught Us that we were the sons of God, and in showing us God as our Father showed
 us himself, the perpetual Revelation of that Father, showed us himself, in the completion of that Revelation, lifted on the cross, where he draws all men to him,
 where he draws you in that poor, sinful, human life, so tn It it becomes your life passion to seek to come to his character,
 his cancellations, his truth. All your
 life you were seeking, through part of
 eternity you are still seeking; but never ! even yet have you come fully where he
 is, and never have you ceased, never
 shall you cease, the divine quest.
 There are two men only in Ghis world whom l really pity-the man who thinks
 there is nothing more for him to learn,
 and the man who Is so oppressed with
 the nights above him that he does not
 even try to gain them; the man who
 rests contenCed on the top of his mount
 ain, and the man who sits nerveless at
 it's bottom, making no effort to take even
 one step up the steep ascent, the self
 satisfied and the despairing man. My friends, you will not be either of these; here is Jesus with his divine prophecy
 for your soul and mine: 'Ye shall seek me-" the divine that is in you will re- spOnd to the manifested divinity that is in me; and althO "whither l go, there ye cannot cOme," you will cease the divine quest to all eternity. Oh, the beatific vision of Christ in his city in visible union with his saints will come to us all when we have finished our work for him
 cn earth but far, far more glorious is the life we shall come into to-day as we rise and go out into the world to follow Jesus forever, to seek him, yet never to come perfectly where he is. To this seeking, to this divine following of our only Master we can each come. May G0d grant us this entrance for his dear on's sake The Independent.

 GENTLEMEN :-When l wrote you the latter part of December, my mother was, according to the honest belief of three physicians. on her deathbed; she could not retain either food or medicine on her stomach. and it did not seem reasonable to think there was anything but death to re- lieve her. The doctors informed us she had cancer in the lower bowel and there was no cure for her. She showed such vitality for person to be so near death we thought there must be something to help her, and reading of others being saved by the use of your S. 5. S., we thought it would do no harm, if not some good to try it, so we informed her of her condition, just as the doctors had in formed us, and left it with her to try your remedy or not, as she saw fit. She concluded to try it and from the first dose or two, she began to brighten up, and improve; she can now get up. dress and help herself, and can eat everything or anything she wants and no distress from It. We all feel quite hopeful that the cancer will pass away in due time by the use of your 5. 5. S, which she will now gladly take. You may make this letter as public as you choose, and the more so the better, as too much praise can not be given your valuable remedy.
 Yours truly,

Grimes, who went on the roof Of the

a kite. He swung the kite over the rear
Of the house, and started on a run to-
ward the front to give the kite RISE
The kite scared gracefully upward,
but James, in his excitement, forgot
about the open-air shaft, and stepped
into it. He shot downward through
space, distance Of almost fifty feet.
When the people reached the cellar
they found the boy unconscious, with

The commanding officer of the Cadets, who
made reputation for himself and his
company at Memphis year ago, is Capt
Edgar A. Shilling. He enlisted in the Nor
ton Cadets in August 1893, and within a
few months thereafter was elected first
lieutenant of the organization. When the
captain resigned Lieut.. Shilling was
promptly promoted to the vacancy. The
Morton Cadets will bring fifty men and
officers to Savannah.
Augusta will also send down a crack
company to enter this big contest, and
companies are expected from Mobile

One Of the most extensive series Of rife
contests the south has ever seen Is now
assured, and the Rife Range Associa-
ton has promise now of the visit OF
several important teams from different
parts Of the country for the May week
shooting on the Avondale range.
Gen. Bird w. Spencer, inspector Of rifle
practice Of New Jersey, with whom the
Savannah military men have become so
well acquainted by reason of their visits
to Sea Girt and his trip to Savannah,
will be in Savannah Sunday, May 10, with
team of twelve men, and no doubt
the New Jersey boys will take part in
all Of the prominent contests.
With this also came encouraging re-
ports that rifemen of the Seventh and
Twelfth regiments Of New York, in New
York city, were making elaborate prepa-
rations in the way Of target practice
and that they will probably send down two
well equipped regimental teams District
Of Columbia rifiemen have been practicing
actively, and it is now assured that the
engineer corps Of the district viii send
down a team Of twelve.
