The Grand Banks.

Gustav Kobbe writes an article, entitled
"On the Grand Banks and Elsewhere, for
St. Nicholas Mr. Kobbe says:
The Grand banks of Newfoundland are
the great fishing ground on this side of
the Atlantic. Other fishing grounds near
these are Western bank and Quiro, but all
the year round you will see vessels on the
grand banks II you haze ever crossed tho
ocean on swift liner, you will have no.
ticed that when about two days out you
ran into chilly fog. You were OF Cape
Race, n. F., crossing the banks. 1t is
usually cold and foggy there, and In win
ter frequent gales and snowstorms add to
the dreariness and danger.
Western bank Is near Sable island,
long sandbar off the coast of Nova Scotia,
and an ocean graveyard, literally strewn
with wrecks. The English government
placed flock of sheep there because there
had been instances of sailors wrecked on
the island starving to death, but the sheep
died The island was too barren even for
them. A herd of ponies was tried, and
these hardy creatures flourished, but be-
came in time so wild as to be unapproach-
able and shipwrecked sailor hardly has
the strength to scamper after wild pony.
Now, however, there are several light
houses and life saving stations on the is
land, and in the spring innumerable gulls
nest in the sand and lay their eggs. In
May it is not unusual for dories belonging
| TO the Western bank fleet to get lost-at
! least for awhile, for the gulls' eggs are
good eating during that month. l once
asked an old fisherman If he had ever been

"How did you get lost?" l asked.

Comment by Rev. w. j. Yates
A. M.-Topic. Prayer For
Personal Friends.

SCRIPTURE RzADINC.-u Tim. 4, 3; Phi. Nv.
All friendship must be based ON fell
lowship. Those who are TO be bound to-
gether in sympathy must have some OBJ
ject in common. Seeking a common
end, they are united in purpose and
agree in sentiment and can work to-
gether tremendously. Paul found in
Timothy as boy the same sincere faith
in God which he possessed himself. 1t
was not simulated, but unfeigned. as in
Lois and Eunice, the mother and grand
mother of Timothy. This gives founda-
ton for enduring friendship in soul and
fellowship in work and suffering.
Intercession.
Friendship prompts to the sharing OF
benefits as we'll as to the sharing of sor-
rows and dangers. So the Christian de-
sires and prays that his loved ones may
receive from God the same blessings he
| desires for himself. Paul is drawn to-
ward the young man Timothy with
| tender love. The stern determination Of
soul of the apostle is touched by the
tender sympathy Of heart manifested
in his youthful friend. The endurance
of sufferings by the elder appeals to the
younger and moves him to tears This,
far from unmanning the old hero, rather
strengthens him and makes him write,
81 have remembrance Of thee in my
prayers night and day, greatly desiring
to see thee, being mindful of thy tears,
that may be filled with joy" Each is
strengthened by the other and finds in
him what himself Graves and lacks.
Mutual Helpfulness.
Philemon is under deep obligation tc
Paul, probably for his conversion. They
become "partners" in the gospel work
When Onesimus, slave belonging tC
Philemon, has been converted by Paul'i
influence, the latter sends him back Il
his master with the letter which speaks
of Pauls constant remembrance of hi
partner" in prayer. He charges Phile
mon to receive the slave as brother.
These prayers for Timothy and Phile
mon reveal tender and sympathetic
side in the nature of Paul very touchin,
and which but for these glimpses Nigh
not have been discovered from his othe
writings

BE Cheerful.

Those who are the happiest and win
the most love are the cheerful ones.
There is and always must be In this
world much of suffering and disappdint-
ment. Cheerfulness under all the adj
verse circumstances of life lightens ones
own sufferings and eases others bur-
deps. Good cheer comes best from per-
feet trust in God and hope in His prom
Uses. Not frivolity, not light headedness,
would we commend, but light hearted
ness, not rejoicing because of pain. but
joyful in the Lord in the midst OF pam
and bearing all cheerfully for His sake.

More Chinese for Nashville Exposition.
Tacoma, Wash, May l7.-Collector
Saunders today received directions from
the secretary of the treasury to admit
the remaining sixty-four of the ia Chi
nese bound for the Nashville exposition,
who were brought here three weeks ago
on the steamer Victoria. The telegram
from Washington says that this action
is taken upon the urgent request of the
Nashville exposition officials. The
first fifty OF the lot were sent East last
week, including the 26l recently admit
ted at San Francisco. This makes 31b
Chinese already admitted for attendance
at the exposition, in addition to con-
siderable number brought over by the
Canadian Pacific line. The Chinese
have certificates emitting them to re-
main in the country one year after the
exposition closes, but, like the Chinese
admitted on similar terms for the At.
lanta exposition, it is considered doubt
full if they can be collected and sent
back when their certificates expire.

Locked Up in San Quentin Prison
for Eight Years for MansIaughter.
San Francisco, May 17.-W. A. Sc
horn, editor Of the Willows Journal,
Glenn county, made pressing appeal
today at San Quentin TO be locked up
for eight years for manslaughter.
II have no warrant for your commit
ment," said Warden Hale, "and must
refuse your request"
"Then / shall stay around here until
am locked up" was the reply.
sehorn waited at the prison till late
in the evening, hoping he would not
have to spend another day outside the
walls. At last, he went to the hotel
near the prison gates, there to remain
until necessary papers for his incarcera-
tion are furnished.
II have been found guilty of man.
slaughter, Sehorn explained, and as
the supreme court has affirmed the de-
cision of the Glenn county court,
hastened here to surrender myself.
My frst obligation is to my bondsmen,
those good friends Of mine who stood
by me in my hour Of trial. want to
release them SO they may not feel un-
easy about me. That is the reason
desire to begin to serve my sentence.
1t NAV look strange, my trying to break
into Jail, but l realize there are eight
long years for me within San Quentin's
walls, and / am eager to begin at once
to serve my time. 1t would look more
natural for a man to stave it off as long
as possible, but in my case l can have
no peace Of mind till the punishment
begins"
Sehorn was convicted of shooting and
killing DIR. J. E. Putnam, druggist at
Willows, two years since. Sehorn still
maintains that he shot in self defense,
, or rather, with strong conviction thai
he was defending his own life in shoot
ing. Twice the jury disagreed. Or
, the third trial. Sehorn was found guilty
/ of manslaughter and sentenced to eight
; years imprisonment. Last Monday
, the judgment was affirmed by the su

killed Four white Men and Is Looking
for More to Shoot.
Eldorado Canyon, New, May H.
An Indian called Ahvote shot and
killed two teamsters of the Southwest
ern Mining Company, named Lee
Franzen and Ben Jones, on the ore road
between the mines and the mill this
afternoon, and then went to the cabin
of Christopher Nelson, a prospector,
and killed him also. The teamsters
left the mines this afternoon on the
down trip, but did not arrive at the
mill on time. Manager Charles Gracey,
supposing they had broken down, did
not suspect anything out of the way
until an Indian came in about P. NJ, +,
and reported that Ahvote had taken a
gun and might kill the teamsters.
Gracey at once sent man up on horse
back. Six miles up the canyon, the
latter found the teams, while the bodies
of the teamsters lay on the ground near
their wagons. He returned and warned
the people at the mill. A. H. Gracey,
the foreman, drove fourteen men in a
wagon to the scene, and brought the
bodies down to the mill.
Franzen had several bullet holes in
his body, and Jones one. A party
went to Nelson's cabin early this
morning and found him dead in bed.
A Chinaman, just arrived, reports
that Charley Monaghan, who livec
alone on the bank of the river, was als'
shot dead in bed. 1t is feared that th'
Indian has several more victims WHIT
live alone on the route he probably tool
after killing the teamsters.
