1t is amusing to note the predic
tions made by our contemporaries
in regard to ocean steamer changes
ia view OF the fact that it is always
the unexpected that happens. There
is only one thing certain in connec-
tion with the matter, aud that is
that whatever may happen, accomo'
dationss for passenger travel and
freight will increase and not de-
crease.

that the annexation of Hawaii is a

COURSE OF LOST RIVER.
Late Developments Indicate That 1t Runs
Underneath the Village of Orleans.

Late Developments Indicate hat 1t Runs
Underneath the Village of Orleans.
INDIANAPOLIS, March l2.-For many
years the invisible course of the famous
Lost river, which suddenly sinks from
view at a point near the adjacent town
of Orleans, has melted scientific in
quiry. No trace Of this underground
river was ever discovered until the
recent heavy rains. 1t is now believed
that Lost river runs directly under the
town Of Orleans. This belief is based
mainly upon the fact that during the
recent flood the water burst forth from
what vas supposed to be a small ave
in such volumes that the town was
flooded. The water has now ceased to
flow from the cave, but any II stand
ing neal the entrance can hear the
rushing Of the torrent apparently hun
dreds of feet below.
The explanation of the sudden ap-
pearance of the water at the cave is
that owing to the great volume caused
by the rain, the subtcrranean channel
was insufficient to carry it off and the
pressure became SO great that it sought
relief through the cave. This belief Is
further confirmed because some years
ago there was IN attempt to bore tor
gas at Orleans. After a depth of 500
feet had been reached, water gushed
forth with terrific force, and continued
t % flow for many months.

it was made clear that Venezuela knew
officially nothing of the arrangements
made between Secretary Olney and Sir
Julian Pauncefote for the submission
of the boundary question to alD.tration
until the whole matter had been closed
up. 1t is evident the Venezuela presi-
dent did not like this method of ar.
ranging the affairs of his country with
out consultation with him, for his
message shows that he was not alto

However, in Difference to the kindly

this matter, he endorsed the treaty and

One of the advantages of long pas
torate is that it compels the preacher to
dig into the depths of gospel truth, to
avoid samencss and repetition. This Is
exactly contrary to the popular impress
sion. We have often heard men say that
by n change of pastorates they would
gain time for study and more thor
ough investigation of the great Chris
tian themes. AS Il matter of fact, the
men who change pastorates every few
years do not usually study as broadly
and deeply as those who remain in ono
place for years, The former find that
they can use their old preparations and
that there are good many claims upon
them besides those of patient thought
and investigation. The latter are forced
to study. There is n limit beyonc which
old sermons cannot be preached to the
tame congregation. --Watehman.
