A Plea for Aged Ministers.

The Rev. N. H. Whittlesey, d. d. Of
New Haven, Conn, Secretary of the
Committee of the National Council Of
Ministerial Relief for the Congregation

in the Congregational church, in thit
city, His text was Philippians, IV:10-
s'But l rejoiced in the Lord greatly that
now at the last your care of me haiti
fourished again; wherein ye were also
careful, but ye lacked opportunity
From this sentence, he said, taken from
st. .Paul's letter, we may gather two OF
three important lessons. First, Christian
people mean to be kind when they think
of it. Twelve years earlier Paul had
founded this, the first Christian church
upon the heather continent of Europe
During the past five years he had been
in prison. at length these early con
verts bethought themselves about theil
old missionary, aged, in prison and in
want. Their former affection blossomed
afresh. They made up bountiful min
isterial relief contribution, and, as sec
retarles had not yet been invented, mol
express companies, they sent one of
their own number, Epaphrodites, hun
dreds of miles away off to Rome to car
~ it. On the arrival Of their messenger
and their gifts Paul wrote them this
beautiful letter of acknowledgment
just SO to-day, it the facts about the
needs of Gods aged ministers can be
made known and business-like way OF
caring for them can be devised, Christ.
Ian people will respond.
Second, the apparent benefactors are
often the real beneficiaries, and vice
versa. Generous as these good Philip.

Connecticut society, our national fund

By this small outlay, he was enabled to

health and for seven years served a
group of home missionary churches
with marked success.

for few years until the children are

An aged couple in Kansas, after life
long pioneer home missionary service,
were expecting the sheriff one morning
to come into their poor little home and

had furnished, and paid off the mort.

A Giant Bermuda Eel.

Visitors to the aquarium had the oppor-
tunity to see something new to them.
Prof. Bristol of the New York university
arrived in New York from Bermuda with
several tanks of specimens taken from
tropical seas. The greatest novelty is a
green moray, a tropical eel about Z feet
long, which suggests the sea serpent. It's
head is shaped something like that of a
horse, and is cleft with a deep mouth,
armed with long and powerful teeth. 1t
is at least 2 feet around at the thickest
part, and, according to the tales told of it
by Assistant Superintendent Spencer of
the aquarium is fully as savage as it
appears. 1t will attack anything Mr..
Spencer says, and is in the habit, in it's
native haunts, of Selling coral rock and
tearing it away when it is in search of
prey. After it was caught and was be-
ing taken out of the trap it got loose.
In recapturing it, a piece of a box was
used, and the great eel bit at this and
took a piece out of the plank. 1t feeds
on anything, dead or alive, but prefers
live fish, and it has great speed as we'll
as strength. Although this specimen is
the largest ever brought here, others have
been seen in the tropical seas at least II
feet in length.-New York Sun.

Oconto, Wis. Aug. 12.-[Special.l-
Initial steps toward what appears to be
the promotion of a sawmill trust to en-
brace all the leading mills in Wisconsin
and Michigan are being taken by inter
ested parties and it is expected that the
deal will be consummated before the next
season opens. The plan which is to be
worked is for representatives to canvass
the lumber districts and secure options
on all available properties, much after
the manner pursued by the American
Paper trust 1t is understood that the
new trust viii be capitalized for $1,000
600, and that it will assume charge Of
the mills Immediately after gaining con-
troll of them. The trust will probably
not change in any Of the mills the men
who are now operating them.
The chief promoters of the deal are
the G. w. Jones Lumber company
whose general offices were for many
years at Clintonville. This company is
now furnishing the entire cut for six
teen sawmills in Wisconsin and Michi-
gan. The price of lumber is advanced
from 81 to SIS during the past thirty days
and the combine is believed to be pro-
Jected in order to maintain the prevailing
prices.
