and gracefully and skillfuly work these
four or five crowns into one crown of
beauty So all the splendors of earth
and heaven are to be enwreathed into
one coronal for our Lords forehead
one blazing glory, one dazzling bright
ness, one overpowering perfume, one
down flashing, up rolling, outspread-
ing magnificence, and so ON his head

The Greatest Crown.
The worlds best music will yet be
sounded in his praise, the worlds best
architecture built for his worship, the
words best paintings descriptive of his
triumphs, the words best sculpture per-
petuate the memory of his heroes and
heroines. Already the crown woven out
of many crowns is being put upon his
brow. His SCARED feet are already as
cending the throne. A careful statisti-
clan estimates that in 1850 there will
be ia, 900, 900 people in the United
States, and by the present ratio of unit
ing with the church 100, 100000 Of
them will be church members. What
think We of that, ye pessimists inspired
by the devil? The deadest failure in the
universe is the kingdom of satan. The
grandest throne of all time and all eter-
nifty is the one that Christ is now
mounting. The most of us will not see
the contamination in this world, but
we will gaze on it from the high heav-
ems. The morning of that consumma-
ton will arrive, and what a stir in the
holy city! All the towers of gold will
ring its arrival. All the chariots will
roll into line. The armies of heaven
which John saw seated on white horses
passing in infinite cavalcade. The in

liant strains, accompanied by harpers
with their harps and trumpeters with
their trumpets, the hundred and forty
and four thousand coming into the
chorus, 1 think we will stick to Isaac
Watts old hymn, which the 5000 ma
tives of Tonga, Fiji and Samoa sang
when they gave up their idolatries for
Christianity, and would not be sur
prised to see some of you old heroes of
the cross, who for a lifetime have been
toiling in the service, beating time with
your right hand little tremulous with
many years:
Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does his successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till suns shall rise and set more.
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud amen.

Japs to Grow Tall on Meat Diet.

It has been written that no man by
giving thought unto himself can add
one cubit to his stature, but the enter
prising Jap does not despair, and an
ordinance has gone forth exhorting the
people to eat more freely of meat, with
view of increasing the average height
Of the race. Whatever results may fol-
low the method proposed, they are GER
tain to be long time coming, but it is
only another instance of the determina-
tion on the part of the Japanese not to
let the slightest chance slip for attain
ing all the advantages which they see,
or think they see, in western civiliza-
ton. James Gazette.

Sentenced to Life Inn
priSOnment for Wife
Murder.
General Surprise at the Yer
dict and the Prisoner
Collapses.
Peculiar Phases Of the Case Lead
to Conviction on Circumstan-
tial Evidence.

PONCA, NEBR,, May 4-Dr. j. Sidney
Goodmanson was tonight declared guilty
of VILE IN Crder and sentenced to life i'm
prisonment. The jury del1berated but
two hours, the first ballot being unani-
nous. The prisoner almost tainted when
his fate was announced. The verdict was
a general surprise and an appeal will be
taken.
1t is conceded that the revelations con-
corning the young woman at Kansas City,
to whom the accused was engaged while
his wife was still living, had much to do
with the conviction. Though the fact
was elected that Goodmanson kept her
picture hung in his wife's room and con-
tinually tainted Mrs. Goodmanson with
the story Of his love for the girl. the name
OF the woman has never been learned.
The State sent detective to Kansas City,
but he was unable to discover anything
about her. The picture is that OF girl
richly dressed, about 20 years of age, and
a magnificent blonde.
The theory Of the State was that in
order to marry this girl and to get the
balance of his wife's fortune the murder
was committed. Mrs. GoodmaEson died
asst Septem Der in her husbands office at
Fender, Nebr. The sym toms were those
OF strychnine poisoning, though the at
tending physician certified that death re-
suited from heart failure. Goodmanson
has shown great concern during the trial
for the Kansas City girl Tor fear that her
identity would be disclosed

AFTER THE SPANISH MISSION.
dications That They An Stand an
Even Chance


WASHINGTON, D. G., May 4.-Four
men are being considered for the Spanish
mission-Herbert w. Bowen of New York,
Charles Page Bryan of Illinois, John Rus
sell Young of Pennsylvania and ]. Frank
Aldrich or Illinois. The indications are
that all of them stand an equal chance.
ch candidate IS strongly backed, and ii
II comes to matter of influence it will be
hard for the Pee sident to choose.
Behind Frank Aldrich is Speaker Reed,
while Herbert Bowen is indorsed by many
New England Congressman, General
Horace Porter, Admiral Erber and others.
Bryan has Secretary Gage and the Illinois
Senators at his back, while John Russell
Young has the Presidents personal friend
ship. Young has asked no help and is not
an applicant Tor the m ssion. 1t is known,
however, that he would take the place if
offered him.
The latest applicant is Bryan, and if the
influence of Gaze prevails he will 60 to
Madrid. At present Bryan is membe
of the Illinois Assembly and chairman OF
the Civil Service Committee.
Frank Aldrich, who was Reeds official
mathematician in the sklrmish for the st.
Louis nomination, is an applicant for the
Spanish mission first, but if it is shown
that he cannot have that he will be con-
tent With another appointment. Reed is
doing all in his power to help Aldrich.
Herbert w. Bowen seems to have rested
his case. About fortnight ago it was in
timated that Bowen would get the place,
but since other candidates have appeared
he will not have smooth sailing.
