@ When trouble comes it is folly to
sit down and brood over it. No situa-
ton is ever improved in that way.
Great emergencies call for great
strength of spirit, and for great activ-

play the man. If you once give up,
and waste in idle repining the energy
that ought to be spent in courageous

STARTED WITH MAINE GOLD.
Jaotson Got Enough Out or HIS Mines There
to Take Him TO Alaska.

PARIS, Me-, Nov. 2s.-One Maine man. at
least, has mined gold enough from his native
soil to pay his way to richer diggings. and has
gone to try his luck in Alaska. He is n. b.
Jackson. an old California miner. who gained
among the Pacific placers, and who, since his
return from the West some dozen or more
years ago. has devoted all OF his time
to an attempt to trace the mother lode
by the yellow dust and odd nuggets found
in the sands and gravel of Swift River
in Oxford county. 1t is o turbulent little tribu-
been famous for its occasional gold. Where the
wealth comes from no one has yet been able to
ascertain. but MIR. Jackson and his sons have
made a good living in prospecting. along its
time.
On ono OF his prospecting expeditions Mr..
Of ofi Bypon ais TSis Was s sevS Or gears g9Ia n sS9. t and fo tss
discovery filled Byron with a heterogeneous
population, in which might have been found half
the tramps that had wintered in the State. Sew
eral mining companies were organized. but the
public had not forgotten the great gold mining
swindle OF tho carly seventies, and stock could
not be given away. Mr.. Jackson. however. took
out paying quantities OF dust, ana succeeded in
where, since that time. the Canadians have
found gold in paying quantities.
After his return from that prospecting tour
Mr.. Jackson tried to organize a company to
work the vein. but 1t was no use. He had found
promising nay streaks. he said, and there was
not n quarter of a mile, from Byron over into
on the lode he found a nugget about the size of
an ordinary cuff button. 1t was said to DO the
largest nugget Of gold ever found in the State.
notwithstanding the rich finds in the st. Fran
els River, up on the northeastern border line,
where some of the settlers have made good
wages washing out tho gravel of the river bed.

DIR. ABBoTT,s STUDY OF PAUL.
Ne says That Il Caused Him to Recast His
whole Theology.

The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott delivered yester.
second Of his series of lectures on the life and
letters Of tho Apostle Paul, the especial topic Of
the lecture being Paul's early life. AS at the
first lecture. q large congregation was present.
In his introduction DR.. Abbott said:
1.-The spirit of modern study is investigation,
and investigating methods are pursued In all
study. No one is supposed now to reach a
result. give 1t out. and expect a student to take
this result for granted. The duty of the
teach er Is to lead the student along, and 1t is
in this spirit that l am trying to conduct these
lectures. During my study Of Paulu found 1t
necessary to recast my whole theology and my
conception of Christianity. 1 do not. however,
ask you to accept my conclusions, but l hope to
lead you, under my guidance, to some conclu-
Whether DR.. Abbott meant that tho recasting
OF his theology and his conception of Christi
preparing the present course OF lectures or by
his original study OF Paul did not appear In the
lecture. which was confined In the main to the
Apostles early life.
After tho lecture DIR. Abbott gave the congre-
cation a chance TO question him on any point
connected with the subject. Somebody rose and
asked him II he thought that the account of
Stephens speech at his trial was correctly re-
ported. DIR. Abbott replied:
"Nes, ! do. OF course there was no one to take
down his words litteratim and verbatim. but,
on the whole, 1t was probably done moro &c.
curately than II the average newspaper reporter
of modern times had done it,"
In answer to another question. DR.. Abbott
said that he thought Christ was the incarnation
of God. and that in fact He was God prese l.
on earth. The fact that Jesus said that no was
only the Son and that the Father was greater
seemed to DIR. Abbott to mean only that tho
manifestation was not SO great as He who per-
formed IL.

mons on questions which he had sent to promi-
nent citizens with a request for answers. His
subject last night was, why do SO many men
OF good moral and business standing maintain
an attitude OF Indifference toward the Church y
This question" said Mr.. Wick. puzzled
me long before 1 entered the ministry. The
only way an answer could be had was from
those Immediately concerned. I sent out two
hundred letters and received one hundred re-
plies from business men Of all nationalities and
creeds. These answers / have grouped under
several general heads. Very many said that
the indifference was due to the incompetence Of
ministers. This often is only too true. Ministers.
however. are but ambassadors from God, and
the Word receives no force or power from them.
Others say that they keep away from church
This reason might as we'll be advanced for the
refusal of u So gold piece because yesterday q
reason advanced was that they have SO many
other things to do. This reason came from far
the largest number Of my correspondents. This,
in other words. Is allowing the glitter OF the
almighty dollar to obscure the glory of God.
God has no objection to a man getting money.
but he objects to money getting him.
"Other reasons given are lack Of sympathy
and a disinclination OF men to have their con-
ali this in saying that the carnaI heart is against
God. This is a terrible accusation for a man to
make a ainst a mans best friend. Some people
do not wish to be ChristianiZed. The whole sub
ject narrows down to tho fact that these men
are indifferent toward the Church because they
lack the one essential thing, the spirit OF God.
Lax home training of the young is RESPONSE
bic more than anything else for this Indifference.
This is borne out by the boast of the Roman
training for eight years never forsakes the
Church or grows lukewarm. Give me a child
who has been raised in the Catholic faith until
he Is eight years old and then you may do as
you please with him but he will die in the
faith This was said by a distinguished Arch.
Another reason for the Indifference is because
the spiritual and unseen does not appeal as
scope OF faith to discern the beauties of Chris.

Troy aua new England Road May Not Go Into
the Ilnnds OF n ReceILcr.

Troy, Nov. est is not considered likely
now that the Proy and New England Railroad
will pass into the hands of a receiver. Ono of
the heaviest stockholders in the company said:
II do not think the road will be placed in tho
hands OF a receiver. There has been talk to
that effect, but the stockholders as a body arc
oppOsed TO IL. There Is no reason why n receiver
should he appointed. The corporation is able to
pay all claims against, il, and ihe property can
be m de n paying one II properly managed. The
meeting, TO be held early in December, when tho
interest on bonds falls due. II that interest is
but not sooner. | have no idea that the interest
will not be paid. and am confident the road
will DO run without tho Interference of tho
courts. There probably will be a change in the
management, however," W.
