going to show that the government seeks
to retrace some of the steps by which it
has been placed in the position of inn
potent acqu>5cence in the dispatch of an
Egyptian expedition up the Nile and the
defrayng of the expenses of it out of the
Egyptian debt surplus.

reply. An important debate is expected
to result, and there is Il feeling in some
quarters that far-rea ching changes Of
policy may be announced.
The air is electric with expectation to-
night. and numerous rumors are current
Of grave things that are in contemplation.
Among those which are circumstantially
formulated are, that the resigHa ton of
NJ. Bertheot as minister of foreign af-
fairs, announced yesterday, was connect
cd with the wish of NJ. Bourgeois the
premier, to recall Baron De Courcel. the
French ambassador to London; that
Frances naval reserve squadron has
been ordered to be placed on Il war foot
ing. and that France and Russia will
convene a European conference to dis
cuss the powers of the Egyptian debt
commission, to act against the vote OF
the minority of the powers guaranteeing
the debt. and to discuss also the evacua-
ton of Egypt.

on the ground of ill-health and family
reasons. The premier. NJ. Bourgeois,
has succeeded NJ Rerthelot as minister
for foreign affairs and NJ. Doumes, the
minister of finance, will. ad interim, take
the portfolio of minister of the interior
previously held by NJ. Bourgeois.
Bitter Cabinet Discussion.
lie Paris says that there was bitter
discussion between NJ. Berthelot md NJ.
Bourgeois at the cabinet council today.
Dispatches of the gravest character
We're received and Nj. Bourgeois, it APP
pears. reproached NJ. Berthelot with hav
ing mismanaged the Anglo Egyptian
question. Hence the resignation Of the
minister for foreign affairs.
La Iiberte alleges that the cabinet got
rid of NJ. Berthelot because his handling
of foreign affairs was distasteful to u
majority of the chamber and the news
paper mentioned concludes with pointing
out that NJ Bourgeois. who has denti-
fled himself with Nj. Bertheot's policy,
is equally responsible.
The cabinet changes have caused
great deal of comment here and there
was considerable excitement in the lob
bies of the Chamber of Deputies this
evening. The general opinion expressed
was that government statement must
be made to the chamber before the holi
days.

Prospect of Repetition of the Lively
Scenes i'm Texas.
Oklahoma City, O. T., March IS
Long before the Republican territorial
convention to select six delegates to the
national convention was called to order
it was evident that the gathering would
prove a lively one. 1t was by far the
largest gathering that assembled in the
territory. Every county had nominee
for national delegate and everybody
seemed anxious to go to st. Louis. There
were two decided factions on hand one
for Mckinley the other favoring Reed.
and it seemed positive that tho ST. Louis
delegation would not be solid for one of
the favored sons. The convention will
not convene till afternoon and nothing
will likely be accomplished before the
evening session

IF there be a homeless wanderer, man
or woman, whom Christmas finds with
head bare to the. bitter blast, help such
one for Christ's sake. Nor let q
spasm of Christmas charity satisfy you,
or folly of indolent givingadd to your
own Joy. Visit the poor, and help
them intelligently the winter through,
If you love the Lord: Forgiveyour Of
Tending brother on Christmas. In a
great way We all subscribe to the doc
trine of the forgiveness of sins-espe-
cially of QUE own. But as to forgiving
the trespassers against US, it is to be
feared that it is our own particular
shoe that pinches too tightly; our own
special injury is too great 10 be pardon
ed. We let the rust of hate eat into the
tissues of our hearts, or we build walls
of ice between the estranged friend and
ourselves. Let Christmas sunshine
melt the ice. Let it come to us like
the Gulf Stream, warm from the trop-
les. Christmas bells! hear them
chime! Merry bells, hearty bells, bells
of cheer. Don't you hear them sing
ing the melody of a glad refrain:
"Trust ye in the Lord forever, for In the
Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength"
Trust Him in hard times. Trust Him
in rough weather. The angels are
near, the star is shining, and Christ is
born in Bethlehem.

GRAINS.
The Kingdom Of Heaven is Like to
Grain Of Mustard Seed.

The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Like to q
Grain Of Mustard Seed.
Prayer in the morning, peace at
night.
If we had no trials, we should have
no triumphs.
The right side always turns out to be
the bright side.
Sense shines in double luster when
set in humility.
The road never seems, dark when we
journey toward the morning.
The most delicate and the most SEN
sibIe of all pleasures consists in pro-
noting the pleasures of others.
The defects of the mind, like those
of the face, grow worse as we grow old.
Men are willing to work forthe devil,
but object to accepting his method OF
payment.
The eaisest money to spend and the
hardest to save, is that which we have
not yet earned.
The ear that is always open to hear
SANDER becomes common cess-pool
for the neighborhood.
It is good indication when we are
more grieved for or our own wrong do
ings than for the wrong doings of
others.
"My frien's," said colored preach
er, "a mans character is like q fence.
You can't strengthen it by whitewash,
though you can cover up the places
where it is worm eaten"
The more we know of ourselves the
humblerwe shall be in our opinions of
ourselves, and the more patient we
shall be with the failings and weak
nesses of others.
The floating of banners, the beating
of drums and the tramp of many thou
sands in martial array may not convert
single soul. Some new methods OF
Christian work may yet prove snare.
There is a peculiar and appropriate
reward for every act; only remember
that the reward is not given for the
merit of the act, but follows on it as
inevitably in the spiritual kingdom as
wheat springs from the grain and bar
ley from its grain in the natural world.
Strength comes by exercise. But
the fact that one has worked hard is no
assurance THAT he has worked well
We may be too easily satisfied with the
measure of our eXertion as the test OF
accomplishment.

to England to submit her dispute with

says "Now and that she alone will

whether her title is of her own making

gated.
The duty of the United States to in

If it is found that England's present
claim is right, the Monroe doctrine or
American doctrine has not been in

NOT WITHOUT HOPE.

However much we may rejoice at
the victory of sound money and the
defeat of the pernicious doctrines
which threatened law and order and
the welfare and integrity Of our gov
ernment, we are saddened at the
thought that those principles, for
which the Democratic party has stood
during all its long and glorious life,
owe their supremacy, as the result of
this election, to the Republican party.
But out of this defeat we hope to
see come great victory for Democ-
racy and its time honored principles
in 1900.
Russellsm and negro rule which it
now appears probable, will dominate
the Stale for the next two years, we
hope will have the effect of bringing
the white men together and driving out
ofthe councils of the Democratic party
those traitors, who, for personal profit,
have debauched the party and set it
to hugging its enemies and kicking its
trends. 1t this be the result OF Rus
sells administration, we shall yet bless
the day that brought temporary defeat.
This writer has loved and served
the Democratic party all his life with
as great love and devotion as any min
lister ever loved his Church, and to
watch the gradual betrayal of the
party into hostile hands and The moor
poration of false doctrines into its
platforms has been unspeakably pain:
full.
But, from out this inglorious defeat,
we hope to see the party come, purged
of its heresies and we'll rid of its trait
ors. If it does we may expect to see
1t triumph in I9oo.-Oxford Demo-
