A stranger named Rawlins appeared
IN a church in Blue Ridge, Ca, on 4
recent Sunday, in a dress rather the
worse for wear. After the services por-
tons Of the congregation laughed and
swore at him, and finally one of them
shot him dead. Then the congregation
seized the murderer and hanged him
1t will be seen that, while the members
of this church are fastidious as to
dress, they are strictly just, though
perhaps little rapid in their methods.

bee-hiyes" was the recent exclamation
OF stranger, as he saw the Hon. J.

doors of some wooden Chests. On
learning afterward that this philan-

expense, fitted out thirty such travel

figure: Yes, bee-hjyes! for it is not
the honey a man eats, but that which
he hiyeg for others, out OF which he
gets true happiness"

Russia has ordered the immediate ex-
DendituTe Of $1,000 900 Iubles for the
construction Of warships, sum rep
Tesenting about s7o,o0o,o 900, the puf-
chase price Ut eighteen batt!eships.
Jhis does not represent great feet,
nor will its addition make Russia a
naval power Of the first importance.
The great significance that lies in its
expenditure is the fact that to raise
this amount no loan is asked, no cred
its sought for outside Of Russia itself
