SERMON WAS ELOQUENT.
Rev. Mr.. Wilkinson Charms Two
Ogden Audiences.

Rev. w. e. Wilkinson of the First
Methodist church yesterday delivered
a Christmas sermon which created a
profound impression and was pro-
nounced one of the most able dis
courses ever delivered from the pulpit
of that church. So great was the inter-
est in the matter that the congregation
especially requested that the sermon
be repeated in the evening. This was
done before a large audience. and the
impression produced was deepened and
broadened.
Mr. Wilkinson took for his text the
passage from Luke: And the angel
said unto them: Fear not, for behold
1 bring you good tidings of great JOY
which shall be to all people. For unto
you is born this day in the city OF Da-
Vid a savior, which is Christ the Lord
After a brief introduction concerning
the customs and joys Of Christmas, the
pastor considered the subject under
three heads, viz, the joys and benefits
brought to manhood, womanhood and
childhood by the work of Christ.

There is no accounting for tastes.

traveller and sportsman had recommend
ed to him when he was in Morocco a
variety of game which he would not be
very keen for at home. His informant
was soldier, for no foreigner is al
lowed to travel in that country without
such attendance:
He began telling marvellous stories of
the game in the neighborhood, of the
sultan's army and of his own impor-
tance. One remark on cooking-for he
was eourmand-is worth repeating
"There is, he said, "only one kind
of game worth eating in Morocco

of great economy in fuel, as well as
doing away with the expensive and un-
ornamental chimney. The draft arrange
ment consists of a large fan, which is
connected with by double cylinder
engine. The fan has wheel 81 inches
in diameter and runs at almost any rate
of speed desired. The draft is something

ploy fuel of lower grade than any
heretofore used. Instead of the best

THE SLY POLAR BEAR.
How He Gets His Dinner of Seal or
Wnirus Meat,

How He Gets His Dinner of Seal or
Wnlrus Meat.
In his native home the polar bear
does not often meet with small boys
anxious to treat him to buns and other
dainties. The consequence is that bruin
has to devise many curious ways of Sc.
curing his food, and none is more
strange and interesting than that relat-
ed by two trustworthy travellers in
Greenland, that country of strange
sights.
They have known the polar bear to
take stone or a huge lump of ice in
his fore paws and from favorable
height, as a cliff or precipitous ice
hill, to hurl the missile down upon the
head of walrus, an enormous brute
often twice the size of the bear, and so
stun him that bruln could rush in and
complete the destruction at his leisure,
thus securing a months rations.
The most usual food of the ice bear
as the Germans very appropriately call
this beast, is the common seal of the
arctic regions. The latter is the wari-
est animal of the north, and both Eski-
mo and polar bear need their best STRAIT
egg to catch it.
In the summer time, when the snow
is off the ice of the ocean shore and
islets, the seals can be plainly seen as
black dots on the ice, probably asleep,
but always near their holes, which lead
down through the thick ice to the water
below, and into which they can throw
themselves by the least movement.
Bruin, seeing one afar, walks up as
near as he deems safe and then begins
crawling on his wary prey
The seal, if the weather be sunny
and pleasant, takes short maps, relieved
by shorter moments when it is scanning
the vicinity for signs of an enemy's ap-
proach. During these times the bear is
very quiet and as still as death itself,
with eyes apparently closed, though
really a corner of each is kept open, and
in this way he hopes the seal will take
him for heap of snow, an appearance
which his coat readily helps him to as
sume.
During the maps he creeps forward
with greater or less rapidity, according
to his nearness to the seal and conse-
quent fear of being heard or seen.
When but 10 or IL yards away, and the
seal is i'll the depths of good nap, the
bear rushes upon him and with single
blow of his powerful paw knocks the
smaller brute senseless and so far away
from the hole that he cannot escape by
that way, even if the blow received is
not Immediately fatal.
In winter time the ice is covered with
snow, and this is followed out by the
seal into snowhouse, covering the hole
in the ice and connecting at the top of
the dome with an aperture about the
size of a shilling, called the blowhole,
for it is through this that the seal
breathes when he is in want of fresh air.
Here the bear watches for many a
long hour if necessary, and when the
snorts of the seal are heard he crushes
in the fragile dome of the snowhouse
with his paw, impaling the seal Oh his
curved claws and proceeds to practi-
cally demonstrate how polar bears can
subsist in arctic winter.-London

DANGEROUS PIGS.
The Peccary Is Wholly Fearless and
viii Fight Man or Beast.

A writer in the st. Louis Republic
says that the most vicious and fearless
member of the brute creation is the pee
cary, or wild hog, of Mexico. This ami
NAL seems utterly devoid of fear and dis
plays an intelligence in fighting man
strangely at variance with its apparent
ly complete lack of mental attributes.
Their ability to scent men is particu
larly marked. Tire only thing to do
when they get after you is to rum away
from them as fast as horse can carry
you, and then there is no certainty that
they won't catch you. They are nearly
as swift as a horse, and their endurance
is as great as their viciousness.
A friend of mine encountered drove
Of them i'll a wild part of Mexico few
years ago, and his escape was almost
miraculous. He very toolishly shot and
wounded number of them. Then he
took refuge i'll IA tree.
The peccaries kept him in the tree all
that day and through the night. They
circled round the tree, grunting and
squealing their delight at the prospect
of "A feast. He soon exhausted his am
munition and brought down a peocary
at each fire, but this had no terrors for
the beasts
Toward morning they began to eat
those he had killed, after which they
formed in line and trotted off. If they
had not had some of their own number
to devour, they would have guarded
that tree until my friend, through sheer
exhaustion, dropped from his perch and
allowed them to make meal of him.
The wildcats and tigers that infest
the Mexican wilds flee from the pee
carries with instructive fear, and even
rattlesnakes keep out of their path.

A QUEER CALCULATION.
Ghe Power That Would Be Required
to Move the Earth.

Statisticians sometimes have queer
ideas. One of them has amused himself
by calculating how much energy, water
and coal it would take to move the
earth foot, supposing that it was sub
jected throughout its mass to force
equivalent to terrestrial gravitation.
This is gratuitous supposition, for i'll
spite of It's enormous mass the earth
weighs nothing.
Starting with the fact that the earth's
mass is about 6, 100 million million
million TONS our statistician calculates
that we should require 10000, 900, 900
years for a 10, coo horsepower en-
gire to move our globe foot. The
boiler that should feed this engine
would vaporize Il quantity of water that
would cover the whole face of the globe
with a layer 300 feet deep. The vapori-
zation of this water would require 1000
million million tons of coal. This coal
carried i'll cars holding ten tons each
and having Il total length of 80 feet
would require 400 million million cars,
which would reach S0,000 600 times
around the earth. This train, moving
at the rate of 40 miles an hour, would
take more than 5000, 900 years to trav
erse its own length. 1t would require
for storage IA shed that would cover
1000 times the area of Europe.
If we realize that this Enthusiastically
huge amount of energy is nothing at all
compared with what the earth possesses

its revolution about the sun, and it's

Warning to Those who Would Send
Trade Circulars Abroad.
Manufacturers who wish to do an ex-
port business must have their circulars
and catalogues translated into foreign
languages, says Engineering, but care
should be taken that the translator is
not only a good linguist, but also an ex-
pert in the particular business to which
the documents to be translated refer.
Otherwise the translation is apt to be a
matter of ridicule to those to whom it
is sent.
We cannot well give an instance to
show how an English circular might be
translated into bad German, for exam
ple but the London Engineer gives us
the following illustration of transla-
tion from another language into English,
which is probably no worse than many
translations from English.
"We pique ourselves" says the Cir
cular, con making you known that the
sale of the - has, by us, undertaken.
This preparated, exclusively arranged

ducing it to power, and at the same
time steam boiler blades are conserved
from the usual corrosion, not only, but
the ebulltion, is totally avoided, as it
appears about some very interesting ex-
periments, which have been made in
