DUTIES OF CHRISTIAN LIFE
No Virtue In Ones Daily Actions Unless
1t Is Established In the SouI

No Virtue In Ones Daily Actions Unless
1t Is Established In the Soul.
"The obligations and duties of the
Christian life are not all external, !"
writes Cardinal Gibbons, pointing out a
religious life to young men, in The La
dies Home Journal. ''They are mainly
material and must proceed from the
heart. There is no virtue in ones daily
actions unless it be first established in
the soul and is only an external express
sion Of the souls convictions or prolon-
cation of heartfelt sentiments. Yet the
external practice of Christian virtues
and the performance of Christian duties
pertain to the integrity, if not to the es-
sential character, of the Christian life.
The interior sentiments soon perish
without external expression, as life and
bodily powers become extinct without
due and proper exercise or employment.
''However, as the external duties are
not absolutely and under all circum-
stances essential, they vary both in
number and frequency according to en-
vironments and opportunities. A bust
ness man cannot do all that a clergy
man is expected to do, man in trade
not what man in leisure can accom-
plish nor a man of the world all that is
possible and easy to one who keeps him
self from society. But all, no matter
where, no matter what their engage
ments and secular pursuits, how little
or how much time they can call their
own, can and are obliged to perform
daily acts of prayer and religion and
accomplish many duties Of virtue and
charity. There is no condition of life
which is incompatible with the dictates
and principles and precepts of the
Christian life. -

Wanamaker Turned Bricks,

The early days of John Wanamaker
were not easy by any means. When only
a lad of years, he made bricks, or, rath-
er, assisted in making them, for his bust
ness was to turn them in the sun until
they were evenly baked. For this labor
he received 2 cents day and sometimes
cleared 10 cents week, but it must be
remembered that there were many rainy
days when the force of youthful "work-
men had to be laid off. Johns first
real rise to fortune was in the days
when, as Office boy, he saved money
enough to start in business for himself.
He worked as assistant in the office I'M
til he had climbed up to S. a week, and
then. seeing that he could get no more,
he bought little stock Of cheap furni-
tnre and started in to be a merchant

TOSSED BY THEHURRICANE.
The Shorn ''Colonel' and the Wrecked
Captain" Dine Together

The Shorn "Colonel' and the Wrecked
Captain" Dine Together.
Two men who had been chums in a
western town before financial hurri-
GALE hit it met for the first time in
years in a Sixth avenue eating house
the other day. In the days Of their pros
perity one of them was political lever
and was called colonel. He had been on
the governors staff. The other in some
way had acquired the title of captain.
Both had front seats in every event of
the town in which they had lived. The
governors ornament is now a plain
bookkeeper in Broad street. The other
man is a dry goods clerk.
After greetings, explanations and a
few mournful references to persisted de-
lights, they had a combination meal, and
if you don't know what that is you have
never had any trouble, and any one who
casts shadow is worse than heather.
When the meal was over, the two old
friends walked out and stood for a few
minutes under the splitter of an arc
light. AS they were parting the man
who used to ride the big bay horse in
the governors parade, and who had
commanded the populace of his town to
stand back, said in low, mournerlike
tone:
IF you come to see me, don't call
me colonel Nobody knows me as colo
mel now. I am just an employee on a
salary"
The arc light spluttered again as the
little man replied in squeaky, hall
bedroom voice:
"And if you come to see me just call
me, Say, you!' That's what everybody
calls me in the store''
"Well, goodby, captain

It was the first time they had heard
the titles in years and each walked
away with a lighter step and lighter
heart. New York Sun.

NEW ELECTRIC ROAD
ELYRIA WILL PROBABLY HAVE ONE
NEXT YEAR.
1t VIII Run to Sandusky-Surveyor are
Now at Work-Elyria Thinks She
Is the Only Place in the
County For the
Terminus.

In all probability Elyria will have
another electric line. The new road will
extend from Sandusky to a point in Lo-
rain county, probably Elyria. From
there 1t will ultimately be extended ia
Cleveland.
Engineer Case, Of the new road, and
party OF assistants arrived in Elyria,
Wednesday morning, to look over q route
for the road between here and North
Amherst. Mr.. Case would not talk
about his plans.
From an authentic source 1t was learn.
ed, however, that the road will be built
from Sandusky to Huron. thence to Yer
million and thence to North Amherst.
From the later place the route has not
been determined. It is said that the
company Is considering whether 1t will
build in 0berlin. Elyria or L0rain. 1t is
initiated, however, that the officials are
at present inclined to favor Elyria as
their Lorain county terminus, By COM
ing to Elyria, they will be In position
to draw travel from both 0berlin and
Lorain. They would also have a thickly
settled territory on both sides Of their
road. On the contrary If they built to
L0rain, the territory from which they
would draw travel would be much more
limited.
The section Of the new road from San.
dusky to Huron is now being pushed
with all possible vigor and the project
ors hope that that section Of the road
will soon be in operation.

THE closing session Of the Fifty-ffth
Congress began on Monday. The Presi-
dents message was submitted to both
houses. The message recomends no fixed
policy for the government Of the Phillip
pines, Puerto Rico, Cuba, but asks Con-
gress to deliberate carefully before
adopting colonial policy. 1t urges the
increase of the standing army to
100000 men. Suggests that liberal
appropriations be made for increasing
the army and navy. Shows that the
war tax must be continued for some time.
Does not, In view Of the present cOndit-
ions, strongly recOmend financial
reforms. Gives a full account Of the
expenditures of the $500O0,0O0 emerg-
ency war appropriation. Recommends
the construction Of the Nicaraguan
canal by national aid. The war Depart
ment scandals are not passed over in
silence, but the President refers to his
appointment Of the War Investigation
Committee, and assures Congress that
il any persons are found blameworthy
they will be punished, and If faults are
found in the system they will be correct
ed. On the whole it Is strong docu-
ment.

A New railroad.

This week surveyors were In OberliI
surveying in the western part OF tOwI
for new steam railroad which Is abOu
to be constructed from the coal regions
of this state to the lakes. The planl
have been carefully laid out and thu
right Of way has been secured as fal
north as Ashland. The survey is In
charge Of George X. Prentice, formerly
chief engineer Of the Pennsylvania syS
tenn. In talking with the representative
Of the Owl, Mr.. Prentice, although some
what retieent, said: ''The project OF the
new railroad is not altogether new one,
but the northern route and terminus
have been changed from Toledo, as at
first planned. The northern terminus
will be at Sandusky."
When asked the possibility of car
shops here, Mr.. Prentice said: "The
shops will undoubtedly be located at
COshocton, with the end Of one division
at Wellington. There will propably be q
round house here, water station and
yards"
"Will there be transfer with the
Lake Shore for the accommodation OF
coal cars?"
lido not know, or at present T. cannot
state" replied Mr.. Prentice.
"When will the road be built"
"As soon as the revised plans have
been presented to the board Of directors
the construction of the road will be COM
menced and the work pushed through to
completion as fast as possible"
The road starts at Wheeling. W. Va,
going west through st. Clairsville to
Cambridge, then up through COschOctOn
In nOrthwesterly direction to Millers-
burg and Ashland. At that point the
road bears little to the east and strikes
Wellington In the western part Of that
town. The road from that point has not
been decided upon, but several surveys
have been made. The last one strikes
0berlin, when it crosses the Lake Shore
just east Of the cemetery going through
Henrietta township, taking In the towns
of Birmingham, Berlin Heights and on
to Sandusky.
UndOubtly the road Is sure 90, and
that 0berlin will be greatly benefited
thereby Is foregOne conclusion. 1t
will open up large tract Of country
that is now inaccessible and raise the
value OF real estate in certain localities.
1t is understood that an 0berlin man
who is southern railroad magnate Is
interested in the project. -0berlin Owl.

While indications point to the build
ing Of this road to Elyris our people
should not wait for 1t to come. The city
officials and the business men should
take hold Of the matter and have q con-
ference with the projectors OF the road.
1t would not take much talk to convince
these railroad officials that Elyria is the
only place In the county for their
terminus. -Elyria Republican.

The dogs seemed to be pretty evenly

The bicycle men who were to ride the tan

Charles Rudy's Desire For Jury and
What Came of It

Charles Rudy, when he is again arrested
on a charge of vagrancy, will not demand
a jury trial but will depend upon convinc-
ing the court that he is not a Weary Willie.
His experience with jury yesterday was
disastrous for him, and for the next six
months he will repose within the confines
of the county Jail. The detectives regarded
him as suspicious character. and when
they arrested him, of course. they were un-
able to hold MIN long on suspicion, so they
chargd him with vagrancy To them he
was like the moon, |. e., had no visible
means of support, and their purpose in
making that charge against him was to
learn Just how he supported himself
He demanded jury trial, and further
more demanded that no person be accepted
on the jury whose name did not appear on
the city assessment roll. He gave the court
all the trouble he could in trying the case.
and In so doing he was not wise. for the
jury found him guilty on the first ballot.
and so reported to the court. OF course the
jury did not fix the punishment but the
court did not need the assistance of the
jury in that matter. Rudy was sentenced
to $50 days in Jail and was taken there.
He will endeavOr to secure his release
Monday on writ of habeas corpus.
