Can the roll, my brother.
Let us now plainly hear
Who compose our little band
At the opening year.
We know not what our strength,
How many sim are true,
How many are the old friends,
How many are the new.
Our great Captain calls us,
Calls us up into line,
Calls us into His SERVICE
And to His love divine
Many are leaving Him,
Whom selfish gains allure;
He would know the true and tried
Who win tor Him endure.
Call the roll, my brother,
Alas they're not all here
Whose names appear on the roll
OF some not distant year.
Not all here, my brother,
Many a dear old face,
As we sit round the Preside,
Somehow has slipped its place.
Ye old walls. breaR silence,
Tell me the things you know
Prayers and conservation here,
In the dim long ago.
Give me the sweet old accents,
Show me the kindly face,
Speak me the tremulous tones
Penuoning tor grace.
Not nll here my brother
Nor here can this ever be true;
One place all are yet to meet,
'ris in the Grand Beview-
In the great day OF assize
When Christ opens the scroll,
Thelnations gathered round Him,
Himself shall call the ron.
Close up, clio, e up, comrades,
Let's ill the thinning band,
AS they fall out one by one,
Let's hrmer clasp the hand

A striking example Of corrupt Chin
csc methods has just been brought to
light. The taotai OF Shanghai and i'm
perial director Of railroads was sum-
moned to Pelsing by the emperor for a
conference on important affairs of
state. At the outer gate of the city ne
was told his baggage would be conds-
Gated if he did not pay thirty thousand
taels duty. Much of his baggage being
contraband articles which it was not
lawful to take into the city, he paid the
money. At the inner gate be was SINH
larly stopped, and mulcted in the sum
Of twenty thousand taels. So it cost
him nearly thirty-rwo thousand dollars
to get into the city in compliance with
the emperor's order. No wonder, we
say, that under such system China is
in the process of hopeless decay! Yes
and if corruption is condoned even IL
the least degree in our own land, may
we not be in danger of a like fate un-
less we mend our ways?

How Russia Is schcminS to Close


1t.
Shanghai. Dec. IL. - John Barrett,
formerly United States minister to
Siam. has returned here after visiting
Pegins and the principal Chinese ports.
He says the situation in China is of u
most critical nature and that Man
cluria is no longer Chinese, but Rus
sian. territory. He asserts that New
Chwang. the chief northern port for
the movement Of American products,
is also practically Russian and is liza.
bic to be closed any day. The only
permanent safeguard to the para
mount American and British interests.
Mr.. Barrett says. is immediate and
united action by the interested gov
ernmeEts to defend the territory of the
Chinese empire TO enforce reforms in
the government. to prevent further
cesSions OF ports and provinces and 10
insist upon the open door policy in
all ports of China. including the
spheres of influence claimed by Rus
STA. Germany and France. Otherwise,(
Mr.. Barrett contends. the impending
partition of the Chinese empire will
seriously curtail the field Of trade by
disastrously affecting American and
British influence in Asia.

the Long Strain.

Paris. Dec. 10. - The United States
and the Spanish peace commissioners
concluded their work yesterday and
finally settled the terms Of the treaty
Of peace. They will meet once more
in formal session on Saturday or Mon
day, when the Spaniards. SOrrowfully,
and the Americans with feelings of re.
lief will write their signatures upon
the document which embodies the re-
suits of the war and the preparation Of
which has consumed eleven weeks. a
longer time than the war itself. In
the meantime the treaty will be ell
crossed under the supervision of Mr..
Moore and Senior Ojeda, the secre-
taries of the respective commissions.
The Span!ardS are exceedingly bitter
over the result. though observing the
forms Of friendliness and courtesy to
the end. Senior Rios, whose strong and
persistent struggle to save for his
country every possible asset from the
wreck Of her colonial empire, has COM
manded the
Respect and Admiration
of his opponents, went from the council
chamber yesterday to his bed in Il
state of complete collapse as the result
of the long strain and his chagrn over
the small fruits of his efforts. Senior
Oieda has been Frustrated since
Wednesday and was unable to attend
the joint session yesterday. The Span
iards charge equal blame upon the Eu-
ropean powers and the United States
for, their downfall. One of the Span
ish commissioners said: THE Euro
pean nations have made great mis-
take in DESERVING Spain and leaving
her to spoliation by brute force
of Il constituencies giant. They all
know that in the Philippines America
has taken more than she can digest.
She will ultimately sell the islands to
England or Germany. and when the
transfer is attempted it will precipitate
general European strife. We have re-
fused to sell any island in the Caro-
lines. We never thought of considering
an offer. Nor have we consented to
negotiate upon any questions except
those directly involved in the protocol
signed at Washington

Duluth. Mimi, Dec. II. - Leading
spirits in the -four mills here are in the
East. presumably to confer With
Thomas Mcintyre. promoter of the
flour trust. Manager Church. of the
Imperial MILL left on Wednesday, and
George Palmer, manager Of the Min
kota, left last evening for New York.
Managers of other mills are already in
the East. The trust, when completed,
will take in the Duluth Imperial min,
the Freeman at West Superior. capac-
ity. $500 barrels; and at Superior, the
Daisy, capacity, 5000 barrels: Listman,
$500 barrels: Anchor, 1000 barrels,
and probably the Minkota at West Su-
perior. 1000 barrels. The price agreed
upon for the mills named. except the
Minkota, is $1.75O.O0O cash. This would
give the trust Il capacity of 1880 bar
lels daily at the head of the lakes. and
1000 barrels more if the Nlinkota is
taken. The NIinkota managers hold
out for a very stiff price. $3.50. 900 on a
plant that cost about 100000 1t has
been a great moneymaker. but it is
thought that not even the trust pro-
meters can afford to pay this amount.
