GENERAL MISCELLANY.
No Two Men Alike.

The professor who would aim at Shaping
the character of all his students according
to one uniform ideal standard would be
attempting the impossible because he
would be striving to do what is Mt variance
with the laws of nature and of natures
God. In all the Creators works there Is
charming variety. There are no two stars
In the armament equal in magnitude and
splendor, for star differeth from star In
glory" There are no two leaves of the
forest alike, no two grains of sand, no two
human faces. Neither can there be two
men absolutely identical in mental capacity
or moral disposition. One may excel In
solid Judgment, another in tenacity of
memory and third in brilliancy of imagi-
nation. One is naturally grave and solemn;
another is gay and vivacious. One is of a
phlegmatic; another is of sanguine tenn
permanent One is constitutionally shy,
timid and reserved another is bold and
demonstrative. One is taciturn; another
has his heart in his mouth. The teacher
should take his pupils as God made them
and aid them in bringing out the hidden
powers of their soul. If he tries to adopt
the leveling process by casting all in the
same mold his pupils will become forced
and unnatural in their movements; they
will lose heart, their spirit will be broken,
their manhood crippled and impaired.

MARY ABIGAIL DODGE, better known as
Gail Hamilton" died last Monday night
at Wenham, Mass, from the effects of a
shock of paralysis received last Sunday
morning.
BISHOP STEPHEN M. MERRILL of the
Methodist Church is dangerously i'll at his
home in Chicago. He was stricken last
Sunday with severe nervous shock. He
has recently had nervous shocks which re-
sembled paralysis, and his physicians think
he may succumb to this last one He is the
Oldest bishop on the board.
PARTY of men in the employ of the
Pennsylvania Telephone Company at New
Holland, Pa, starting out to work last
Monday, had placed one hundred pounds of
dynamite in wagon which was standing in
the yard of A. g. Miler's hotel The dyna-
mite exploded, killing three men, fatally
inluring three others and seriously injuring
many more.
County, Ala, last Thursday. The high
wind at Mobile caused the strongest houses
tc be shaken from their foundations
Twelve negroes and three white men, names
unknown, are among the killed, and many
Others were injured. The list of dead may
be greatly increased when news is received
from other places in the country. Hun
dreds OF farmers lost their entire crops by
the rain and wind.
A wEsT-BoUND excursion train on the
Denver & Rio Grande railroad was wrecked
last Sunday near Pueblo, Col The entire
train left the track and the engine turned
completely over. Engineer Charles Daven-
port OF Pueblo, aged forty, and Fireman W 4.
+. Reppert of Burlington, Ia, aged twenty
i've, were instantly killed. About twenty
passengers were injured, but none seriously.
1t is the opinion of railroad men that the
accident was caused by the spreading of
the rails, due to the intense heat.
E.tp of h. A
pany in New York and Jersey City to the

day. They allege that since President Wier
took charge of the company's affairs in the

third and that many other and efficient SER
wants OF the company have been discharged
for trivial reasons. At the offices of the
company in both cities, it is reported that
business Is being transacted with but little
delay that porters have been sent on from
Philadelphia and other points, and that there
will be little difficulty in filling the places
OF the strikers.

LawbOOk the Judge Found Useful.

OF the influence of single book thor.
oughly learned distinguished Maine
judge gives evidence. A lawyer engaged
in the trial c.f case came into the room
where the judge was chatting with friends
and began to search among the lawbooks.
"What are you looking forS" queried
the judge.
"1'm hunting for decision relating to
parol sale of grass, " replied the attorney.
"You'n find that in the Thirteenth
Maine; Cutler against Pope" said the
judge.
"You seem to have that on your tongues
end, " said the lawyer jokingly.
"When l was u boy" said the Judge, II
had one lawbook that was my own, and
but one. That was copy of the Thir-
teenth Maine report. 1 read that book
over and over until / almost had 1t by
heart And l have never seen the time
since In my practice and my work as n
Judge when that book was not q solid
foundation under my feet. Its cases SEEM
ed to spread out and fit either directly or
by analogy into thousands of questions
have had to pass upon. 1 had it so thor
Oughly l could recall it when the doctrines
of other books were not at all clear to me.

His Name.

Children often think that If they had
been allowed to name themselves they
would have chosen something much pref
tier than that selected by their parents
Very few little boys and girls approve of
their own names. 1t is probable, however,
that If they had done their own choosing
1t would not have been more satisfactory
once upon time boy baby's father and
mother determined not to name him. but
to leave tho choice to himself as he grew
old enough to make it. Ho passed his boy
hood and youth in state of uncertainty
wavering between number of titles. At
last, when he grew up and was obliged to
be known by something more than the pet
name given him by his family he desper-
ately hit upon this: His fathers surname
was Williams, and he called himself Will
liam. William Williams he was thereafter.

Vastness of st. Peters,

The building is so far beyond any IA
miliar proportions that at first sight all
details are lost upon its broad front The
mind and Judgment are daZcd and stag
gered The earth should not be able tn
bear such weight upon its crust without
cracking and bending like an overloaded
table. On each side the colonnades run,
turving out like giant arms, always open
TO receive the nations that go up there to
worship. The dome broods over all, like
giant's head motionless in meditation.
The Vastness of the structure takes hold
OF man as he issues from the street by
which he has come from SAINT Angelo. In
the open space in the square and in the
ellipse between the colonnades and on the
steps 300 900 men could be drawn up In
rank and file, horse and foot and guns.
Excepting it be on some special occasion,
there are rarely more than 200 or 300 per-
sons in sight. The paved emptiness makes
one draw a breath of surprise and human
eyes seem too small to take in all the fiat
ness below all the breadth before and all
the height above.
Taken together, the picture is too big
for convenient sight. The impression itself
moves unWieldily in the Cramped brain
A building almost 800 feet high produces
n monstrous effect upon the mind. Set
down I'm words, a description of it conveys
no clear conception. Seen for the first time
the impression produced by it cannot be
put into language 1t Is something like a
shock to the intelligence perhaps and not
altogether pleasant one. Carried beyond
the limits of a mere mistake, exaggeration
becomes caricaturc, but when it is magni-
He'd beyond humanity's common measures
1t may acquire an clement approaching to
terror. The awestiking giants of mythol-
ogy were but magniied men, The first
sight Of st. Peters affects one us though,
In the everyday streets, walking among
ones fellows, one should meet with man
40 feet high. Marion Crawford in Cen

Scenery OF Guiana.

Whatever discomforts the traveller may
have to undergo in journeying through
Guiana, he is compensated for them by
the scenery, which is more enchanting
than the loftiest flights of the Imagination
can picture. As soon as you leave the low
swamps at the great mouth of the Orinoco
the land rises gradually toward the Ina
taca range, the leaks of which are clearly
outlined against the clear tropic sky. Still
farther into the interior, following the
windings of the Rio Cuyuni, the green
banks of which are bright with scarlet
passion flowers, you see more mountain
peaks and innumerable cascades and wa
terfalls, tumbling and roaring over rocks
that raise their black heads above the sur
face of the water. On all sides countless
parasites intwine themselves in the most
intricate and fantastic fashion around the
branches of the lofty trees.
1t was my good fortune to reach one OF
the loftiest of the Imataca peaks lust at
sunset, the hour that most impresses all
travellers. To the south and east, as far az
the eye could reach, the scene was one Of
indescribable beauty and grandeur. Be-
low, the great Cuyuni, unknown to tho
world for so many generations, but now
with name in history, wound in and out
of the valley like n serpent of thousand
colors. The soft rays of the afternoon sun,
glimmering through the mist of waters,
fell upon the river in showers of rubies,
sapphires and diamonds. Soon darkness
closed upon the valley for in the tropics
the twilight is as brief as 1t is enhancing,
and on all sides the tiny oampfres of the
Indians twinkled like myriads of flreflies.
Now and then the stiffness was broken by
the night cry of some wild animal in the
distant jungle.-W. Nephew King In Cen.

SINCE 1873 there have been nine different
epidemics of dysentery in different parts of
the country in which Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy was used
with perfect success. Dysentery when ep-
idemic, is almost as severe and dangerous
as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best
efforts OF the most skilled physicians have
failed to check it's ravages. This remedy,
however, has cured the most malignant
cases, both of children and adults, and
under the most trying conditions, which
proves it to be the best medicine in the
world for bowel complaints. For sale by
