AWFUL DISCOVERY
en- Anticipated Birth Day Festival was
Transformed into Funeral
Procession.

Dabnev. y. c.. May 31.-(Special.)-A
fearful accident occurred about three ana
a half miles from this place Saturday
evening. The three Oldest children of MI
.Iunius Woodliff, consisting of a daugh-
ter. 10 years old. a daughter and son
younger accompanied by young MI
Robson. were fishing on a stream near
their home, preparatory to celebrating
Mr.. Woodliff's birthday Sunday, when
they found what they thought to be some
angelica gowing near by the water.
Thinking it was angelica, and being very
fond of its flavor, they began pulling 1t
up and chewing it.
1t was but short while, however, be-
fore the oldest girl. who had chewed ana
swallowed more, perhaps, than the others,
began to complain of a sickness at the
stomach and in a very few minutes was
taken with violent commissions. The
other girl and boy were taken in the same
way. Young Robson was very much
frightened and summoned Mr.. Evans, Il
near neighbor, with his horses and wag-
on to carry them home.
Mr. Woodliff, having finished his work,
walked down to the stream, thinking he
would have some sport, too, catching fish,
and arrived upon the scene only i'll time to
see his oldest daughter breathing her last,
and the girl and boy in commissions. They
were Immediately carried home and Il
messenger sent for DR.. c. ID. Wyche,
who, by a great effort, succeeded in re-
lieving the boy and girl, who, it is now
thought, will recover. The fatal herb is
supposed to be yellow jessamine.
Thus the anticipated birthday festival
was transformed into a funeral pro-
cession.

ROCKEFELLER'S MONEY.

The missionary in the Pittsburg con-
vention who will not touch money that is
offered until convinced that the gift is
clean, must have bank account OF his
own to fall back up0n.-Detroit Free
Press.
We observe that the Rev. Mr.. Cossum
would be quite willing to accept Mr..
Rockefeller's $25O.000 if he would ''puri-
fy himself and bring in his gift as a right
eous. God-fearing man" So it is not the
capitalists money that is Objectionable,
but the man himself.-New York Even
ing Sun.
1t was a foreign missionary who
though the Rockefeller money was a bit
oily.-Boston Record.
While one can comprehend Mr.. Cos
sums course. it is hard to find justifca-
ton for it, We can see that he regards
Mr.. Rockefeller as an awful specimen Of
the capitalist" but why should he object
to the use of Mr. Rockefellers money for
the church? Even the money of hard
ened capitalist is sanctified when put to
holy uses.-New York Times.
A Baptist missionary caused a painful
silence in the missionary meeting in Pitts
burg by rather suggestive reference to
Mr.. Rockefeller. The Baptist denomina-
ton has struck an oil in Mr.. Rockefeller
that will mix with water and cannot af-
ford to sass" the great oil magnate.-
Minneapolis Journal.
The Baptist missionary who has been
pitching into Mr. Rockefeller ought to be
sent to Darkest Africa quick. He has up
set the whole contribution box.-Boston
Herald
1t is seldom, amid the clergy of so en-
lightened an evangelical body as the Bap-
fist church, that such narrowness Of view
and un-Christian temper, as is exhibited
by Mr.. Cossum, can be found. The man
whose thrift and energy have gathered
riches, and who prefers to part with lib
eral portion of his wealth before his
death, not only sets a noble example, but
earns for his declining years the priceless
joy Of doing good to his kind. This attack
was amply met by the eulogy of Mr..
Rockefeller, by preachers Of larger view
and intimate acquaintance, who knew
him to be liberal and consistent Chris
tan worker.-New York Mail and Ex-
press.

SYNOPSIS OF SERMON.
The following is an outline of the SER
mon:
LIST. God in the creation of the world
must have had a purpose i'll view. The
world is not an accident. 1t did not come
by chance. There must have been far
reaching purpose. Just what 1t was we
may not be able to comprehend. General
~ speaking we would say God had IN
view his own glory. He wanted to
act IN q manner WUTiHy u Hlhhoeii. ~
was a correspondence between what God
was, and what He purposed to do.
End. That purpose, in the nature OF
things must have been a benevolent one.
We could not conceive of the contrary.
1t is utterly abhorrent to every instinct
of a God given manhood to suppose that
God had a malignant purpose, and
created man only to harass tantalize and
then damn. We should be careful here.
We should not erect standards and re-
guire God to be measured by them. we
are fallible. But there are necessary
lines of thought We think certain
things because we are created as we are.
We cannot help SO thinking, and it is con-
trary to Scripture, and contrary to reason
to think of God as having malicious
purpose in the creation OF the world. we
do not overlook the existence of evil, but

THE FAKIRS.
(Pittsburg News.)

There are fellows in the business with
the pride of lusty youth,
Who have lost their sense of honor and
forgotten what is truth;
When they strike likely item they just
wink the other eye
And elaborate with fancies till it is per
feet lie.
Since the days Of Ananias
There was never such a lie as
They can make
When they fake.
They are usually clever. with an eighteen
carat gall
As stupcndous in its way as every other
trait is small;
And they whiz right through the business
like comet through the sky;
For a paper has no use for men who al
ways write lie.
Like the first old Ananias
They will have as big a try as
They can make
At a fake.
They are lost beyond redemption, they
are angels black and tan,
And their fate is to bunko just as often as
they can,
They drop to deep perdition, be- their pro
gress fast or slow,
And they end by writing fiction as press
agent for show.
While the real old Ananias
Thinks that he himself is piOus,
When he reads
Their fake screeds.
