To the disciples of the ;crucitied Lord there was a dark, thick cloud enshroud- ing the Holy City. '' All is over, "though' some, tour hopes are blas$ed." expect ed to the very last, even until He spoke the words Ut Is finished? |? that somehow He who had saved others and was"migh- ty In deed and In word before God and all the people, would by some myster- ious exertion of his power save himself but no. All Is oyer. "We had trusted that 1t had been he which should redeem IsraeP'-but no, all is over-"he is dead" But as If to hide these disappointed ones from the taunts and jeers of the rabble and elders, and to show them that Ma ture's God had woOed Nature into mood tc sympathize with the conceits of his children in their dire need, that night came on, that unnatural night, that bas' tard night; the sun was darkened, the thuuders rolled, the lightnings burst, and men like ghosts walked about with grave clothes on, and seer, now and then, by intermittent flashes, was the body of the dead Lord against the dark and blended sky and horizon-awful picture to them yet how in harmony with their bewildered minds, their shattered hopes, their riven hearts!
 For over two days they had waited and all that they had yet heard for their comfort was a story about the empty tomb and report of some women that they had seen a vision of angels who told then he was alive. This is not enough to base much hope upon.
 Two from out this band of disciples az if no longer they could stay in that blood stained city, are seen vending their way, towards the western gate of the city Longing fer the freedom of mountain and country, for freedom from the haunt ing memories aroused by the sights o1 the city, they pursue their way talking as they go on that rugged, flinty, ruin skirted way of ''all these things that had happened" seeing if perchance from the tangle they might catch the thread and make for themselves even the smallest skeIn of hope.
 It came to pass that while they ''cem- muned together and reasoned" strang. CT drew near and did what is very natur. al considering the freedom of the Orient and their obvious perplexity as shown by their bearing and their countenance, he asked, 'What is the subject of con. versatlon for which I perceive it makes you sad2" One Clsopas answered "art thou only stranger in Jerusalem and knowest not these things? Why, every. body for the last three days has been talking about it." "Their eyes were bolden that they could not see," but their hearts we're not. While the quea- tion was out of tune with their feelings, yet there was something about the Stranger that when he asked "What things ?" made them unlock their inmost souls to him. The story told so simply and SO deeply truthfully, with such ten. der pathos, with every word fragrant with prayer, that the Master himself seemed wrought upon hy It's tender re. hearsal. When we see how the emotions of each were disturbed from their depths the outburst of the Lord in the words 70 fools" seems less harsh and shall WE say with this thought still in mind tflsy are perfectly natural words, can we not say they were

GEN. SHAFTER
WILL RETURN
He Says That He Will Resume Com
mand of the Department of Cali
fOrnia.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 26.-Advices
from General Shafter to friends in this
city say that he will soon return to re-
sumo his station here as commander of
the department of California, relieving
General Merriam, who will probably be
assigned to his former duties as COM
mander of the department of the Co.
lum bia.
Brigadier-G General Miller says he may
go to Manila on one of the first trans
ports to leave with what remains to him
of the First brigade, of which the Wash
ington regiment is now considered a
part. In that case, Colonel Funston,
with the Kansas, Iowa and Tennessee
regiments, forming the second brigade,
will go last.
Should no general officer be assigned to
duty as commandant at the presidio,
Major G.. H. Kinsie will be General
Miller's probable successor to that title.

A Chicago dispatch of late date says
''The London auction sales, are looked
forward to as factor which will have a
stimulating influence upon the present
condition of the wool trade. Many close
observers of the strength of foreign
markets think that there will be an ad-
vance OF fully five per cent. upon merino
woods. There will be about 230, 900 bales
of wool offered at these series, and ifgood
competition asserts itself with reason
able advance, all doubts regarding the
values of American wool will be re-
moved. It is reported upon good
authority that several hundred thou
sand pounds of foreign wool now lying
in bond at sea-board points, is soon to
be shipped to foreign ports. If fair
remuneration is received by the shipper
in this venture large lines of other wool
will certainly follow. 1t may be the
means of opening the eyes of some large
manufacturer to the reality of present
cheapness of American woods, and re-
lease the market from the inactivity
and sluggishness that has so long ex-
listed.

New York, Sept. 26.-Telegrams
were received at the Cuban legation last
night from commissioners who arrived
at Key West, says the Press correspond
ent at Washington. sent to this country
by General Gomez, the Cuban insurgent
leader.
These kilograms depict the situation
in the province of Santa Clara as most
critical. The Cuban army is said to be
starving. The vegetables are almost
gone, and the last mules and horses have
been killed to feed the sick. Old people
and children are said to be dying by
dozens every day.
The general appeals for aid and says
the situation is desperate. The Span
iards are doing all they can to make the
insurgents situation more terrible. 1t
is feared that serious results may arise
from this, and the Cubans cannot be
blamed if they are forced to take the
necessaries of life. This they could do
by capturing town, but they have
pledged themselves not to violate the
! armistice, and they, therefore, appeal to
the United States in order to avoid a
conflict.

P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 8,
writing from Sandiago. De Cuba, on
July 23d, says: ''We all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see a
doctor, for it was case of rush and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to
keep at work and keep our health in
fact, sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads
that a wagon train could use. My COM
rad and myself had the good fortune to
lay in supply of this medicine for our
pack-train before we left Tampa, and I
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life."
