The main emphasis OF the lesson is TO
be put upon the facts, which are to be-
sharply distinguished here from any
speculatiOns we ourselves or others
may have regarding those facts. One
of the facts is that both wheat and tares
have been sown in the same field. An
other is that both will be allowed to
grow together until the harvest. A
third is that the tares Will be in the
end absolutely destroyed. And a last
is that the wheat shall be gathered to-
gether where no tares can come: 'Then
shall the righteous shine forth as the
sun in the kingdom Of their Father"
Bad men are found in the church, in
every reform, in every good ca use, and to
the apparent retarding Of progress In
the cause Of righteousness and reform.
Jesus gives the simple eXplanat ton:
LEST while ye gather up the tares, We
root up also the wheat with them"
Christians themselves are educated and
disciplined by contact with the tares.
They would not be nearly so good II
shut off in a community by themselves.
Tares would still come in. If the wheat
does not seek to change the tares into
wheat, the wheat will degenerate into
tares.
QUESTIONS FOR ANSWERS.

the tares? 6. What will become Of the
wheat? 8. Is there any hope that the tares
may become anything else by contact with
better things? TO- What is Jesus simple

Present Duty Our only Duty.

Our present duty is our only duty.
We need never worry over to-morrow's
duties or to-morrow's trials. The
duties and the trials of tomorrow have
no existence, except in fear or fancy.
We may have left this life before to-
morrow becomes to-day. 1t would be
indeed a pity to fail of doing our
lest to-day because of those things
which we think of as to come, but which
may never manifest themselves as a
reality. All that we have to face at
any time are to-day's privileges and re
sponsibilities. If we do present duty
we'll, that is enough.-S. s. Times.

Song Recital.

Mr.. j. Henry Mckinley, who is to
appear in song recital at the Audi
torium Thursday, March 8, although
favorably known here, will be able to
give better idea of his abilities as a
singer of the highest rank in this re-
cital, as he will have ample opportun-
ity to be heard in all classes of music
MIR. McKinley's engagement as tenor
for the Calve and Nordica tours is a
sufficient guarantee of his merit and
position in the musical world.
ST. PAUL AND SUN woRsHIPPERs.
Mr.. Mckinley is one of the few ten
ors worth listening to, not only because
he sings free from that disagreea BILE
bleat-that open, white tone which is
SO often heard, but also on account of
his artistic methods, finished phras-
ing, clear enunciation and musical
temperament He is not the usual cut
and dried reputation oratorio tenor,
nor is he afraid to show his feelings:
suavity of tone there was, exquisite
verbal discrimination and lots of FIRE
and feeling.-Richmond, Va, Dispatch

second production of scenic melodrama

and before its presentation wise heads
scoffed at the things Mr.. Carter said he
could present to make it novelty, but
he did all he said he would, and made
a fortune beside. His announcements is
for THE Tornado" were equally sur
prising, but the fourteen newspapers
of Chicago, where he chose to launch
his new work, were unit in pronounc-
ing it as perfection of melodramatic
work, the superior of every scenic melo-

TIE MOBILIZATION

OF Our Naval aud Military Forces Going
On-Our sea Coast Wen Protected.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.--The mobili-
zntion OF the naval and military forces
OF the country continue with energy.
The South Atlantic fleet is assembling
at Bnrbadoes, south of Cuba. Capt.
Chester, of the cruiser Cincinnati, is
the senior officer of the fleet. The
Cincinnati and the gunboat Castine are
on their way north. The North At
lantic squadron remains about Key
West, within striking distance of Ha-
vana.
The national capital is now the best
protected city in the country that can
be reached by water. Ft. Washington,
l2 miles below Washington, on the
Maryland side of the Potomac, has
been turned into a modern fortifica-
ton, with high-powered rifles on dis
appearing carriages. Barges Tuesday
started from the Washington navy
yard with gun carriages for Ft. Sher-
idun, nearly opposite TT. Washington,
where another modern battery is be-
ing erected. No foreign ironclad could
pass these two powerful batteries.
The Monitor Terror will guard New
York and the NIiantonomah Philadel-
phia The Amphitrite is at Port Roy
al. S. c. The Puritan is in Hampton
Roads, guarding the approaches to
Norfolk, Newport News and Washing
ton. There are also small monitors
now at the League Island navy-yard,
and in the James river, which might
be serviceable.
The navy department has on file
list OF vessels of foreign navies which
are known to be for sale, or which can
probably be purchased if sufficient in
ducements are offered.
Work at all navy yards is being hur-
ried. A total of 1900 men are en-
ployed at all the yards. At the Wash
ington gun factory some of the shops
have been working the entire "a hours
for three weeks

dollars, possibly.
OF course, there might be many con-
di.ions which would make such burd-
ems not only necessary but seemingly
too light to be considered seriously by
any strong and manly people. There
are much worse things than war of
the modern kind which eats so terribly
into the treasures of nations. But the
loss of the Maine is striking illustrat-
ion of what the dark side of the picture

FIRE IN FULTONBURG.
Small Frame Dwelling Destroyed Tuesday
Night.

Small Frame Dwelling Destroyed Tuesday
Night.
About eleven o'clock Tuesday night
the fire department went out on an
alarm from box Is, Meister's tannery
in Fultonburg. The cause of the
alarm was a fire in the one-story frame
dwelling of Joseph Gattrell, on North
Hart street The department made a
good run, considering the terrible con-
dition of the streets in that neigh bor-
hood, but the dwelling was beyond
saving when the fremen arrived on
the scene and was totally destroyed.
The furniture and household effects
also were consumed.
The Radical U. B. church located a
few feet distant was considerably
scorched and portion of the cornice
burned.
The origin of the fire could not be
learned. Mr.. Gattrell, the owner of
the burned dwelling, is absent in West
Virginia. He is carpenter by trade
and his chest of tools was destroyed
in the house.
A short time before the house was
discovered Mrs. Gattrell had turned
down a lamp in the house, shut off the
gas in the stove and had gone to Henry
Gattrell's, on Buckeye street, to spend
the night. The total loss will be three
hundred dollars or less. We could not
learn of any insurance on the prop
artv.

A LESSON ON THE COST OF WAR.


The loss of the battleship Maine real
ly means the destruction of about
sc, 100000 in an instant. The work of
building and fitting out a great fighting
vessel is undone in few minutes in
cluding the time required for fire to
complete the work of ruin begun by
an explosion. Counting the lives of
the men killed at only the sum usually
allowed by American courts in rail-
road wrecks, another million and a
quarter must be added to the s5. 900, 600
which the ship cost. Taking into ac-
count the personal effects of the officers
and crew, the injuries suffered by men
who were fortunate enough to escap pc
death, and all other sources of expense
and loss, the blowing up of the Maine
may fairly be said to haye wiped out
not less than s6,250,00O of American
money.
That is striking hint as to the cost of
the modern war. The horrible disast-
er in HaYana Bay would be only an in
c.dent of heavy fighting at sea, under
present conditions. Not one but many
such ships as the Maine would haye to
be sacrificed, in a great naval war,
and the death list would pass. from
hundreds into thousands and tens of
thousands. The work done in decades
by doclfyards and shipbuilders would
be swept away in few weeks or
months, and the nation would have to
