BURIAL OF OLD c

A Mountville, s. O., dispatch says:
A wild outburst of negro religious
frenzy has taken place here, the chief
purpose. of which is to assist at the
burial Of the devil. Nearly two months
ago several colored revlvalists began
their work in a little church in the
suburbs Of the to ~n and caused IN
bounded frenzy among sheir 0evotees.
They started out by declaring that the
Lord had decreed that the church
should have a bell. The funds were
collected and the bell was put in place.
Six strong men were appointed to give
the bell it's opening test, and for six
hours in roliefs of one hour each, the
ding-dong was kept up.
Shortly after the ringing began sew
Oral sisters pretended to discover in its
notes a command for the colored pee
pie to assemble st the burial OF the
devil. Suspending the ringing for a
time, the preacher declared that the
Lord had just held a solemn trial of
the devil before a jury of twelve angels,
who had found him guilty, sentenced
him to death, and decreed that he should
be buried beneath the Montville church.
This declaration was enough to attract
the attention Of the ignorant negroes,
and the hundreds that had first as
sembled began to be increased to thou
sands, until now farms and homes have
been neglected and the people are
standing in groups about the building
waiting for the appearance of the.devil
80 that they may bury him.

Ghost, that the required Offering is
made. 1t will not do for the individual
TO attempt to argue himself into the
belief that he has c~onsecrated all. When
the All seeing Eye has seen the com
pleteness of the sacrifice, and given
the inward testimony thereto, then
may the offerer cay, confidently, "'Tis
done"
GAS those that are alive from the
dead" The consec ration here called
for is that of a justified person, one
alive from the dead" A dead sinner
has nothing to ~consecrate, he is re
quired to surrender as a rebel TO the
righttul sovereign. But the converted
sinner has something to coEsecrate:
powers which have been made alive by
the quickening Spirit. In his regener
alton he is qlickened in all His powers:
physical, intellectual, and spiritual
and these redeemed faculties are all to
be laid on Gods altar, in entire conse-
ton.

o-,--ssnondence of the Progressive Farmer.
What a beautiful word If we could
only raalize how much it meansI Faith
!, the key note to Christianity. But
live is counted greater than faith. st.
paul saws: "If I have all faith, so that
can remove mountains, and have not
1--we I am nothing" He contrasts
them; Now abideth faith, hope and
live. but the greatest of these is love-"
II we only had as much faith as Peter.
pater had great faith in Jesus. If he did
8arv him, But we will ask for things
in our prayers when we will not have
the faith to belive that Jesus will give
them to US. If we have enough faith
in Jesus. we need fear nothing, for how
can anything hurt us when we have
His projections
II we do anything, we must not be
afraid Of it. Go at it like we mean to
do it. II we are afraid Of some evil, it
Is nearly sure to come upon US. 1t is
our fears that makes US sick, except IN
some cases. Christ is a great physi
clan. He is the true physician. There
is nc medicine that can heal like Christ.
In all the of the sickness we read about
in the Bible, Christ is the only physi
clan mentioned. Then, why is it we
will not have more faith in Him7 When
the sick woman touched His garments,
BE said unto b e:''Thy faith hath made
thee whole"
Paul healed the cripple, ~''perceiving
he had faith to be healed"
And, again, we read of the centu-
rian's great faith, Just say a word
and my servant sball be made we'll"
and Immediately he was healed.
When the twelve apostles we're sent
forth, they were told to preach the
kingdom OF G0d and to heal the sick:
and when the seventy were sent out,
they we're also commanded to heal the
sick. Christ always commanded His
Disciples to heal the sick. He never
failed to tell them to heal the sick.
But how many of the ministers today,
who are preaching the gospel, r heal
ing the sick9 They fail to obey this
command. Christ meant for them to
do it; and they can do it through faith.
Then give us more faith-faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ.

we may be assured that God will vim

We have just had an appalling spec
tacle presented-the United States Sen

session on the Sabbath! And, what
adds to the horror of the situation, no
protest on the part of the President
so far as we have heard. In not giving
a testimony for God and for Christian
ity, at this point, he has missed a grand
opportunity. A word Of disapproval
from the white House" would have
closed the doors of the Senate Chamber
and the House of Representatives on
the Sabbath in question. And what
was the call for this Sabbath assem-

Of Service to the King.
BY EDWARD N CALIsCH.

u III SAAAoCn'
There is a sweet story told Of two
little girls and Emperor William 1, of
Germany, grandfather of the present
emperor, who, however, was then only
King of Prussia. The old king had q
daughter, whom he loved very dearly.
But she died when she was quite young,
and the king grieved very much. He
had a flower called by her name. Two
little girls who lived in a village near
the palace heard of the kings sorrow
and his love for this flower. So they
went out into the fielGs and gathered
their arms full of flowers of this kind
and carried them to the palace. The
way was long, and they came there
hot and tired, and the flowers were all
dusty and withered. A great big sol
der, who was q sentinel at the gate.
tried to drive them away, but just then
the king came out. They went to him
and said that they had brought the
fl Iwers because they had heard that he
loved them 80 we'll. The king very
gently took the faded flowers from their
arms, and the tears fell from his eyes
as he thought of his daughter. He
took the little girls into his palace and
had them sit at his own table,. They
fe asted there with all the grand ladies
and gentlemen of the court. And they
never forgot that to their dying day.
Now, there is One VINO is the King of
all kings, the Holy Oae, blessed be He,
and we al serve Him just as much if
we will do those things we know He
likes. Our daily life is like a garden,
and in it are growing the beautiful
f0wers of love for one another, Of
kindness to playmates, Of gentle
ness and truth, Of pleasant words and
cheerful smiles to our dear cnes and
our schoclmates. Lst us gather tbs Sc

CAPTURING a Hawk.

When the Zoo opened for business
yesterday morning. Headkeeper Man
ley stepped from his office and took a
survey of the grounds. Almost the
first thing that caught his eye was big
bird perched on top Of the lion house,
and by bringing a field glass to bear
upon it, he discovered that 1t was not
an escaped pet, but a wild, red-tailed
hawk, and magnificent specimen. His
hunters instincts were aroused, and
he laid plan to capture 1t. Getting n
steel trap the keeper fastened 1: on the
end Of pole. which he set up on the
lawn, in plain view Of his intended vic
tim. Then he brought out live pig
con, tied 1t to a stake near by. and
retired to a distance. Scarcely had
Manley gone into concealment before
the hawk riveted its attention on the
bait. Leaving its high perch, 1t swoop-
ed around and alighted on the conve-
nient pole. preparatory to final dart
at its prey. The instant Its feet settled
on the trap the jaws closed with a
snap, holding 1t fast prisoner. Man
ley ran up. and. releasing the hawk,
found it greater prize than he had
imagined. 1t was one of the largest of
its kind, measuring five feet four inch
es from tip to tip of wings, and a de-

CARDINAL LEoocHowskl.

Said to Have Been Deposed from the
Prefecture of the Propaganda.
Cardinal MiecIslas Ledochowski, who
Is reported to have been deposed from
the prefecture of the propaganda by the
Pope, earned the displeasure of the
Vatican by leaning too much toward
Germany and too little toward France.
His eminence is one Of the most prom
inent of the princes Of the church at
Rome. He Is 20 years old and Is ma
tive of Poland, where his family has
been an illustrious one for centuries.
The Cardinal was given his theological
education In a college Of the Lagaris ts
at Warsaw and was ordained at the
very early age of IS. After that he
went to Rome to pursue his studies
further and was taken up and ad-
vanced by Plus IN. who was very
fond Of him. Ledochowski was named
domestic prelate and protonotary apos-
tolic. Plus confided several important
diplomatic missions to the learned
Pole. Among them was a mission to
Madrid, another to Lisbon, third to
Rio de Janeiro and a fourth to San
tiago de Chill. In 1861 he was made
archbishop of Thebes, in partibus in
fdellum, and sent to the nunciature
at Brussels, where he remained for
four years In 1866 he became arch
bishop Of Gnesen and Posen, and as
the occupant Of that see he has the
title Of the primate Of all Poland. In
1874 he was put into prison by the
