Water Inside a Pebble.

A remarkable pebble, says the Phil
adelphia Record, which was picked up
somewhere in Egypt, that land of dark
mysteries, is in the possession of
well-known lapidist on Twelfth street,
near Walnut. The stone is translucent,
and at a casual glance looks like an
ordinary seashore pebRla. 1t is about
half the size of a walnut and oval
In shape. When the stone is held to
the light its remarkable popularity is
beheld. Inside is drop of water that
circles about the interior. How 1t ever
got there Is a mystery that nature
alone could solve The surface Of the
stone is perfect, but there is no doubt
Of the hollow interior The pebble is
only interesting as a curiosity, bat
many wealthy institutions have offer
ed good round sums of money for It.
The owner, however, VIII never let 1t
get out of his possession, as it was
given to him by an old sailor friend
who was drowned several years ago.

A Touching Incident.

I have read OF town meeting In Penn
sylvsnia where the question OF license was
to be decided, writes a correspondent OF
the Herald and Presbyter. AS the ques-
tion was about to be put there arose from
one corner OF the room miserable female,
wrinkled and gaunt, and stretching out
her arms in a shrill voice she cried Look
upon me. You all know me, or once did.
You all know that I was once the mistress
of the best farm In the township. You all
know too, I hud one OF the best-the most
devoted OF husbands. You all know how
had five noble-hearted, industrious boys.
Where are they now? Doctor, where are
they now? You all know. You all know
they lie In a row side by side, In yonder
churcbyard; all-every one Of them filling

to believe that temperate drinking was
safe-e1cess alone ought to be avoided;
and they never acknowledged excess. But
saw the gradual change coming over my
family and prospects with dismay and
horror; I felt We were all to be over
whelmed In one common ruin. I tried to
ward off the blow. tried to break the

idea OF the benefits VI temperate drinking
had involved husband and sons. l becgei,
I prayed; but the odds were against me-"
And, with her arms flung high, and her
tall form stretched to its utmost, and her
voice raised to an unearthly pitch she ex-
claimed: II shall soon stand before the
judgment seat OF God-I shall meet you
there, you false guides, and be witness

She spoke and vanished. But when the

The Voice Of the Departed - The Fac,

With the Father-A Prayer for Dead

1t singeth low in every heart,

They throng the silence OF the breast,

The kind, the brave, the true, the sweet,
Who walk with US no more.
'Tis hard to take the burden up
Since they have laid 1t down,
They frightened all the joys Of life,
They softened every frown.
But, oh! tits good to think OF them
When We are troubled sore,
Thanks be to God that such have been
Although they are no more.
More homelike seems that vast unknown

Total Abstinence In Hot Weather.

Avoid alcoholic drinks II you want to In
sure yourself In these torrid days against
heat prostration. Whisky is first stlnu.
liant and then a depressant. It overworks
the heart for time, and thea there is
languor due to lack OF materlal on which
to labor. Vitality Is lost and probably ut
the critical time. Under the influence OF
liquor the mind fs deceived as to the real
condition OF things. Temporarily stimu'
lated by It's action, man Is liable 10 ex-
pose himself more than he ordinarily
would, or to exert himself moro than Is
needful. Heat prostration or direct sun.
stroke Is the result.
A curious phase Of the whisky drinking
habit is that its victims imagin or try to
make themselves believe that liquor may
be used In all emergencies. In winter they
use 1t to protect them against the cold,
and In summer its refrigerating qualities
are e1tolled. But those who put any
thought into the matter may see for them
selves the absurdity OF such conflicting
claims.
As matter OF fact, neither in summon
ror winter Is alcoholic drink necessary.
Those who abstain frJ m its use, ,utter.y, are
happier and healthier than the people who
look upon 1t as panacea for all ills, anu
who use or abuse Il accordingly. Try let
ting it severely alone and notice the bene-
fetal results.

CrImes Traced to Drink. /.

LIQUOR selling among the Indians has
been pretty we'll suppressed. For sixty
wears the Government has attempted to
enforce prohibition among its wards In In,
dian Territory. Congress made 1t penal
offense to carry whisky or any other In
toxicating liquor into an Indian reserva.
tion, and u similar penalty was imposed
upon its sale to Indians anywhere. 10 en-
force this law the courts have been In
creased and hundreds Of deputy marshals
have been employed both In the Territory
and along the border.
Years ago, when the Indians were practi-
cally alone upon their reservation, 1t was
a'difflcult task to control their thirst for
fire water, but when $50, 900 white men were
added to the population the problem be-
came almost I'm mpossible OF solution. II ne
can be kept sober the Indian makes good
citizen down there, but when he gets few
ounces OF fire water into his veins oil his
savage instincts and passions are aroused
and he becomes a demon. Ninety-fve per
cent. OF tine crimes Of all kinds committed
in Indian Territory can be traced to drink,
and nearly all the business Ot the courts Is
provided by the whisky peddlers.

May Keep in Touch With the Father.

) The cares of daily life, the temptations
which beset even the best OF us. the Vi
cissitudes Of every ones experience, the be-
widerments and anxieties which harass even
the most carefully sheltered life, all CO.
operate to interfere between our Heavenly
Father and ourselves. They take of our
attention from Him and seem to focus 1t on
worldly interests. Sometimes they even
tempt US to believe that communion with Him
is but dream. Yet, II once We have known
1t, nothing ever can wholly blot out the con-
viction OF its genuineness and power. The
richest blessings oflife are due to 1t. We may
not attain the success for which men COM
monty strive. Wealth may not come to US,
culture may not be attained, honors may
pass us by. We may not even be able to
feel ourselves conspicuously useful In our
own spheres. Positive disappointments and
distresses may harass US, grave disasters
may crush for the time. Yet, whatever hap
pens. the soul that has once known true
communion with God is able in and through
it, and In spite Of every hindrance, whether
OF prosperity or adversity, to keep in touch.

HAVANA (By Cable).-Seldom since the
American occupation Of Cuba has the Mill.
tary Government been obliged to interfere
In civil affairs but the course OF Ell Recon-
centrado having made the exercise OF for;
bearancs no longer possible, an emphatic
order has been issued by General Ludlow
for the suppression OF the paper. The or
der has met with the hearty approval OF
all except that element OF the population
which made use Of Ell Reconcentrado to
further its views.
General Ludlow regrets the necessity for
stop which may seem to those not &C.
quainted with the circumstances to be an
interference with the rights OF the PRESS
but be felt that his duty called upon him to
take action In the matter, and, consequent.
ly, he issued the following order:
Whereas, The publication known as Fl
Reconcentrado Is an obscene sheet, daily
utterlng by assertion and in nnuendo, vile
personalities against not only the estab-
llshed authorities Of the city, but the best
people Of Havana; and
WneteaS, ne continuance OF Sucn pup
licatiol Is disgrace to the city and to the
Cuban people and Is opposed alike to pub
lie and private interests and to morality;
therefore,
"It Is ordered, That the publication be
suppressed, that its directors and writer's
be arrested and that its issue be no longer
permitted. The police authorities will take
possession OF the premises and adopt such
means as are needful to prevent the publi-
cation OF the paper In question. This
order will be construed rs applying not
only to Ell Reconcentrado, but to any pub
lication attempting to issue ISLANDERS and
obscenities regarding public and private
persons within the jurisdiction OF the De-
partment of Havana. In case such paper
should appear, the facts will be imme-
diately reported through the Mayor"
Senior Cervantes and others connected
with the paper were arrested utter having
fed upon first hearing OF the action Of
General Ludlow.
The Military Governors action is said to
have been forced upon him because there
Is no civil law to prevent the circulation Of
obscene literature.
Merchants and public officials express
themselves as pleased with the action Of
the Military Governor.
