A Prophetic Incident.

Soon after II. II. kohlsaat bought his
first newspaper he set out for New York
city to associate with o.ner great edi-
tors. He went to the office of the Sun,
made his way to the little corner room
of Charles A. Dana, and introduce
himself as colleague in the profession.
Mr.. Dana did not understand his vsi-
tors name. He looked Mr.. kohlsaat
over carefully and concluded that he
must be James WhtcOmb Riley. He
learned his mistake after about ten
minutes, however, for Mr.. kohlsaat
fastened to unfold his conception OF
newspapers, newspaper work, and
other subjects.
Mr. kohlsaat's call lasted half an
hour. When he went Mr.. Dana called a
friend from the next room and asked:
"Who was thai"
THAT was ii. II. kohlsaat of Chica.
CO." was the reply. He made some
money as a baker and has bought a
newspaper"
Mr.. Dana thought moment, and
then remarked. with chuckle, as he
settled back in his chair:
Funny little man-funny little man
he is going to lose all his money!

SERMON TO YOUNG MEN.
Rev. Tull breaches an Appropfl.
ate Sermon at the First
NJ. E. Church.

The First NJ. f. church WAS packed to
its utmost capacity last Sunday evening,
when the pastor, Rev. Tull, delivered
sermon especially for the benefit Of
young men. Among those present were
the members of Company !, who were
invited to be present, and who attended
in full military dress. The church was
decorated appropriately for the occas-
ion and the choir rendered some choice
selections.
From the Evening Telegram Of Mon
day we reproduce the following con-
densed report of the sermons:
Mr.. Tull reminded his hearers that
they, standing rs they do, some of them
In the strength and others in the open
ing years of young manhood. have in
their hands the future of the race and
must solve the great questions which
are at present egitating the nations and
theirs is the energy which must over
come the objections which stand in the
better conditions. He reminded them
that now, in their youth, is the time at
which they can be most useful. Every
condition is favorable for strength of
action and herolsi1 Of purpose Young
men in every field of lie are the ones
who are doing great things, who, as it
were, sustain the world upon their
shoulders. And it was ever thus.
Nearly every step of progress which has
been made through the ages, almost
every triumph of human liberty and
truth, nearly every achievement in the
cause of right, advancement, science,
literature, art and government was the
work of men still young. Mr.. TulI
enumerated the names of young men
who had achieved such marked SUCCESS
that they stand like stars IN the worlds
history.
Young men must have an example.
They must follow great original, and
it is we'll that they should follow young
man when his life stands out and shines
above all others. Christ, the young
man of Judea, is the true ideal Tower
ing above the best of the Bons of man,
His virtues appeal to the truly great
and His simplicity to the heir of all hui
mainly; HIS philosophy and his achieve
ments are the wonder Of the ages. Not
one who has led mankind up to better
thing but admits that his life was the
greatest stimulus.
Mr.. Tull expressed little sympathy
with the Christian idea which is con-
fined within the narrow limits of dog
ma and creed, or with the minister who
can only see righteousness within his
own sect, and said that the great idea of
Christianity is not forms, but facts, not
prayer. but actions.

Let There Be Lights Where Most
Needed.

1t seems to liz that the Water, Light
& Power company should be induced
by the sunny ways of friendship, or
compelled. when reducing the number of
lights, to cut off those least required.
There are some places where lights are
absolutely necessary that are now left
in total darkness, particularly railway
crossings, street crossings and where
city wells are located. One of these is
the crossing of the Milwaukee road at
Thompson avenue, where city well is
also located and the ice makes 1t dang
erous at any time to pass. The city
should certainly have the right to saw
what lights it needs and what lights it
does not need. We must have lights in
the danger spots in any case, at what
ever cost

such universal satisfaction. Every one
