Three Prayers.

nEc HEuScEss
An infant in its cradle slept,
And in its sleep 1t smiled
And one by one three women knelt
To kiss the fair haired child;
And each thought of the days to be o.
And breathed 4 prayer half silently.
One poured her love on many lives.
But knew loves toll and care;
lis burdens oft had been 10 her
a heavy weight TO bear;
She stopped and murmured lovingly,
Not burdened hands. dear child. for thee."
One had not known the burdened hands.
But knew the empty heart:
AT mes rich banquet she had sat
An unfed guest, apart;
oh, not" she whispered tenderIy.
An empty heart, dear child. for thee"
And one was old; she had known care.
She had known loneliness:
She knew God leads us by no path
His presence cannot bless:
She smiled and murmured ~trustfully.
Gods Will. dear child. Gods Will for thee.''

NOT YET CONSIDERED.
ReDOrt That Canada Demands Ces
sion of Important American
Territory Is Premature.

Quebec, Can, Oct. 3.-During the
past "a hours the American members
of the international commission have
received many kilograms from differ
ent parts of the United States, and
particularly from Seattle, asking
about the cession of American terri
tory to give the Canadians freer &C.
cess to the Yukon river in Alaska. It
has been reported that the Canadian
commissioners were demanding the
cession of the territory from Yakutat
bay to Dixon's entrance, including the
cities of Skaguay and Taiya, thus ex-
tending the Canadian boundary line
to the Pacific ocean between the
points named, this cession being given
in return for the surrender of all Brit
ish rights to the seal fisheries in the
Behring sea. 1t is quite possible that
su h a proposition has been made by
the Canadian commissioners, but it is
stated upon official information that
the matter has not been considered hy
the joint commission in a conclusive
way and that no proposition whatever
has been accepted. Views on both sides
have been submitted but no adjust
ment has been reached, and a member
of the joint high commission stated
that in this, as in all other matters,
there was no ground" for apprehension
that vital interests of the United
States would be sacrificed

That naturally evoked the question:
What do you mean by spatting 2" and
he said:
This system is purely system Of
spat culture to rear oysters for plant
ing, or seed oysters as they are called.
BY the time the spawning season is
over, or at the end of 90 days, the
spats arc ready to be taken out with
the shells to which they are attached
and transferred to the bed, where they
will be allowed to stay until ready for
the market. The spawning season is
over in 80 days. The oyster will double
it's bulk every year, and in four years
be ready for the table.
In France and other countries oys-
ter cultivation has been carried on for
long time, and, in fact, there is reason
to believe that in the days of the
Caesars attention was given to this
matter. The French government in
1851 made experiments in spat culture
by strewing shells on the bottom.
"Oyster culture by this method is
now carried on in Long Island sound,
where Mr.. Rowe has $4,000 acres un-
der cultivation.

Charles Stone, of Minneapolis, is a
man who pays his bets. Mr.. Stone has
been staunch republican for four
years, and this summer he was a firm
adherent of Van SAINT. He bet heavily
on the gubernatorial nomination, and
his sporting blood being aroused, he
entered into an agreement with a sup
porter of William Henry Eustis that if
the said Eustis carried Hennepin coun.
ty, he would cut off his first finger
The other party to the deal promised
If Van SAINT carried Hennepin, to sac
ritice his digit in the same heroic man
ner.
When the returns of the Hennepiu
county primaries came in, and the
Eustis majority rolled up increasingly.
Mr.. Stone did not hesitate. He had
given his word, and his word should
be kept. With firm step he walked
into the back yard, and. Selling the
family Ratchet. which had Outlines
been stained with the gore of hapless
chickens, he laid the first finger of his
left hand upon the chopping block,
and with one fell blow the deed of de-
struction was done. The first JOINT of
the devoted finger lay severed from it's
parent member, an offering to the
ghost of the Van SAINT boom.

GREAT DAMAGE BY STORM.

Savannah, Ca, Oct. 3.-For 10 hours,
from three O'Clock Sunday morning I'M
til six O'Clock at night, Savannah was
in the grasp of a West Indian cyclone.
During that time the wind blew stead
ily from so to 70 miles an hour. While
the city escaped with comparatively lit
tie damage, the loss Of property among
the Sea islands of the Georgia and
South Carolina coasts is believed to be
heavy. q. H.
T For eight miles north of Savannah
the entire country is a lake with only
the hammocks visible. At noon the
water was eight feet above the highest
tide Driven on shore by the north
east storm it filled up on the islands,
swept over banks and dams, carrying
away the remnant Of the rice crop
that was left by the August storm and
had not been gathered and wiping out
farm crops. The loss to river growers
alone will be from $4,000 to SIS, 900.
OF the entire rice crop along the Sa-
vannah river, valued at $3.50, 900, all but
about Is per cent. was lost in this and
the preceding storm. The damage to
shipping is siderable. The schoon-
er Gov. Ames, which was on her way
to sea with a cargo of 100000 feet
of lumber, went adrift in the harbor,
but was secured safely. The wharves
at the quarantine station at the en-
trance to the river here were partially
carried away. The quarantine officer
and his family and servants were res
cued early in the day by tug. Four
vessels which were at anchor at the
station were torn from their moorings
and driven into the marshes. How
badly these vessels are damaged is un-
known. No news has been received
from Tybee since early in the forming
and nothing is known of the damage
there.
