Is illustrated by the reports of the losses
in the battles which British troops are fight
ing in India. In an engagement reported
yesterday, in which two or three regiments
were engaged. fifty-eight men were killed
and wounded. The loss of f1fty-eight men to
two or three regiments would have been re-
garded as the figures Of a skirmish in the
last war in this country rather than those of
3 battle to be teiegraphed to the world.

The Sentinel concludes an editorial on the
money question by saying: mo legitimate
business can be transacted profitably on
constantly falling market. And the gold
standard means a constantly falling mar
ket." The gold standard has prevailed in
England uninterruptedly for more than
three-quarters of century, and in the
United States for many years past. Yet
business has been done proftably in both
countries most of the time, and the market
has not been constantly falling" The gold
standard is the only guarantee for an I'M
fiuctuating currency and the only safe
foundation for legitimate business.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

Whereas, it has pleased God in his infinite glory
to call from earth to Heaven Eva, the sweet little
daughter OF Mrs. Bette Cunningham. Eva was
one of the most beloved little Sunday school stu
dents belonging to the infant class Of Mrs. S. j.
Travis. She was beloved, aiIectiOnatc, obedient
and bright little child, and she was q sweet
flower in which the beautiful little life was q
sparkling gem OF future expectancy.
Resolved, That we as q Sunday school bow in
deep sympathy in the death of Eva and humbly
submit to the win OF the father
Resolved, That we tender orr deepest sympa-
thy to her mother, who, in her dark hours of sad
bereavement, can trust IN the blessed Lord and
meet little Eva when the roll is called up yOnder.
