Jonah and the whale.

A curious feature of the controversy over
the story of Jonah and the whale is the
assertion of so many clergymen that the
Bible nowhere refers to the fish as a whale
whereas in the twelfth chapter and for
tieth verse of st. Matthew are these words
of Christ " For as Jonas was three days
and three nights in the whales belly, etc
Doubtless this is a faulty translation, but
such as it is it must be authoritative for
average readers who do not know the orig

FUNERAL OF GOTHAM.
Official Death of the Present City to Be
COmmem0rated New Years Eve.

5 NEW YORK, Dec. 7.--If Mayor Strongs
ideas are carried into execution the passing
out of existence of the old city of New
York will be signalized by a solemn serv-
ice in the Metropolitan Opera House on the
last night of the year. The occasion will
be unique in the history of cities. 1t will
mark the disappearance of corporate en-
tity of the historic metropolis of the new
world, christened New Amsterdam 245 years
ago, and, after the 1st day of January next,
TO be known as the boroughs of Manhattan
and the Bronx, parts of new and greater
municipality. In the language of the may
or, it will be the funeral OF the old city.
The mayor sent out to-day to about one
hundred prominent citizens an invitation to
meet him at Delmonico's on Thursday even
ing next to discuss the matter. All the liv-
ing ex-mayors have been particularly re-
quested to attend. The mayor said:
II do not know what suggestions may
come out of the meeting, but we ought not
to permit ourselves to be absorbed, for
glory's sake without paying just respect to
the city, to the memories OF New Amster-
dam and Father Knickerbocker. At the
meeting proposed on Dec. 81 there might be

sources into the sturdy municipality, with

Then, as the hour of midnight is being
sounded the gathering could resolve itself
into a solemn watch meeting, seeing the
old city go out with the old year.

A relief expedition, provision for which was
made in Chicago to-day, will undertake to
rescue and bring them back to civilization.
The names of the men thus dangerously
situated are: w. II. Best, e. c. Stevens,
Moses Lehman, John E. Enright and
Robert Hall. The news of their predica-

err. an old miner who left here with the
party, and when they became stuck in the
snow turned back for help. The men TO
whom relief is to be sent left Chicago early
in September Their intention was TO go to
the Yukon gold country by the water route
by way of Edmonton. Meriwether says
the great boat which the party had built
at Athabasca landing struck a rock, which

PRESIDENT AT CANTON
WILLIAM N'KINLEY AGAIN AT HIS
STRICKEN MOTHERS BEDSIDE.
Arrived Early Yesterday i'm Time to
Be Recognized, and Spent the Day
and Last Night Near Her.

CANTON, o., Dec. 7-Once more the chill
dren of Nancy Allison Mckinley have gath
cred about her couch and the reunion is
complete. The President and Mrs. Mckinley
arrived to-day to find the aged mother still
living. With the children are Mrs. Abigail
Osborne, mother of William Osborne, con-
sui general to London; Miss Sarah Duncan,
who came from Chicago, where she is at
tending school; her brother, Jack Duncan,
who came from an Eastern school, and the
other grandchildren, who have been sum-
moned from their studies and their homes,
together with other relatives, making the
immediate family circle almost complete.
In the midst of the deep sorrow of the
family there is a feeling of joy that the
President has been permitted to reach his
mothers bedside before the inevitable dis
solution came, and that the mother might
again realize his presence and he know that
he had been recognized. These hopes have
been granted them, and they now patiently
and resignedly await the end.
The President and Mrs Mckinley togeth-
err with other relatives from the East came
early in the morning, arriving at sos
o'clock, the latter part of the journey being
made on a special train. They were taken
to the homestead as rapidly as possible and
as. they entered the SICK room the Gylng
woman rallied and, for a moment, plainly
evidenced her recognition of her son and
others about her: The President has re-
mained almost constantly at the bedside
since his arrival and kept to-night's vigil,
relieving others of the children, who have
been SO constantly at the bedside. He re-
mained close to the house all day, going cut
only for little air and exercise, taking a
walk near the house.
AT 1880 p. m. Mother Mckinley was still
resting easily. DR.. Phillips, at his last visit.
reported that she was resting easier than
any time during the day and the morning
would see her alive.

A Failure.

A certain professor i'll one OF the lead
ing schools of this city was not long
since DESTROYS of incorporating some
negro dialect in story he was prepar-
ing. Not being very well versed in their
manner of speech, he bethought him
that it would be a good idea to study
the language in its purity undefiled.
With this end in view he betook himself
to the vicinity Of the Union depot, near
which representatives of the ebon race
are always to be found.
One effort was enough. Meeting a
coal black negro driving wagon rather
we'll loaded and accosting him as
"Uncle JOHN" the following brief dia-
logue ensued;
pretty heavy load, uncle. Can you
get up the hill with it'?'
81 do not know, sir, but l presume
So"
Such an example of pure and unde'
filed English coming from such an I'M
expected source almost paralyzed the
professor, who muttered something
about the "degeneracy of the modern
negro" and, mentally deciding to con-
suit the works of "Uncle Remus," he
retraced his steps to his apartments. =
