M. A. Kidder, in National Temperance
Advocate.
The Christian who does with his
might what his hand finds to do,
and makes sure that his hand always
finds something, will enjoy his relig-
ion thoroughly.
Some people think it wrong to en-
JOY anything, and make religion as
gloomy and forbidding as possible.
But that kind of religion is not Christ
Christianity, and you do not want it.
The child Of God has the most and
best to enjoy. Happy people are
happiness-making people.
The word sacrifice has in it the
thought of something hard. 1t is not
easy to live a true Christian life. 1t
requires sclf-restraint, self-denial, the
giving up of our own way. We are
no longer our own master, but must
take Christ's bidding at every point
and do his commandments. We liye
no more to please ourselves, but tc
follow Christ and to minister to Others
in his name. We are not our own
4 but God's.-L. II. Miller.

The third idea of present day so
ciety being reputed to be-the i'm
provement of the prisoner; we can
see in many states still an absolute
evasion of this responsibility. A pris-

scientific study and improvement.

A Prison Prophecy Second paper).-
Let us look the matter squarely in the
face. Society, the organized some
thing that holds us in check in SO
many different directions, has just
three reasons for shutting a man up
first, that society may snugly take its
rest or go about its business undistur-
bed; second, that the wrong-doer shall
receive punishment for the wrong he
has committed against his fellows;
and third, that he shall be benefited
by his Incarceration and restored to
the walks of life an improved crea-
ture.

PRINCE AND cRIcKETER.
Quaker City Players Expecting n
ROyaIIy Headed Team.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2S.-Philadel-
phia cricketers-for the English game Is
immensely popular in the Quaker City
are rejoicing over the probable visit OF an
English eleven headed by real Indian
prince Arrangements are under way for
a series of three matches between the
Britishers and a team composed of lea9
ing Philadelphia players. Unless the
plans are altered the English cricketers
will arrive in this country early next
month.
Prince Ranjitsinhji is the slightly COM
plex name of the Indian leader of the
team. He had decided 10 make a tour of
conquest in India with his men. But some
hitch occurred and hence his probable
visit to America The Prince. or Kumar
Shri, as a native of his equatorial coan-
try would term him, is one of the best
cricketers in England. He is intensely
fond Of the national sport of Johnny Bull.
and is the equal of most exponents OF the
game on the other side.
Prince Ranjitsinhji was born twenty
seven years ago al Sarodar, India. Ath-
letics in the open air appealed to him al
an early age, and when a boy at a native
school he commenced playing cricket. As
he then played, ii was not a scientific sort
of contest. Nevertheless, he attained a
greater proficiency than his fellows. He
batted well and bowled with skill. and was
regarded as an example by the other boys
OF the team he then headed.
When about sixteen years old the Prince
went to England. He entered Cambridge,
and was pleased to learn the regard with
which the students looked on cricket
And, moreover, he learned that the En-
glish cricket was vastly different from the
game he was accustomed to play in India.
For months he industriouslyu endeavored
to forget the Indian style of playing. BY
assiduous practice he succeeded, and then
acquired marvellous skill in the British
game. At last, in 1891, his ambition was
satisfied when he was given position on
the Varsity eleven. Since then the royal
blooded Indian has followed cricket close
ly, and at the present time is prominent
member and practically manager Of one of
England's foremost teams. Although his
favorit sport, the Prince does not confine
himself exclusively to cricket. He is ex-
cellent at racquets, plays a good game OF
lawn tennis, and is fond of cycling and
shooting.

AN ADVANCING MARKET
Trading Begins in Large Volume
With the Opening Week.

strong Tone Consolidated Gas
Makes a sharp Reaction-The Lon
don Exchange Unsettled Because of
Uncertainty About South Africa.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S-Business was re-
sumed on the Stock Exchange this morning
with the trading in large volume and with
the market showing a generally strong
tone. The only noteworthy exceptions to
this tendency at the opening of business
were Southern Pacific and Consolidated
Gas, the latter stock reacting very sharply;
common. Union Pacific, Northern Pacific,
the Southern Railway shares, Missouri.
Kansas. and Texas, preferred; Mobile and
Ohio. and the Chicago and Great Western
issues we're conspicuously strong and ac-
tive. Among the specialties there were
Hooking Valley preferred; the grangers
stocks were unusually dull and show very
limited changes in price. In the industri-
al quarter the features were American To-
bacco and Continental Tobacco, although
with advances on larger transactions. Su-
gar Refining continued to reflect moderate
pressure. The remainder of that quarter
Cf the market was exceedingly dull. The
London market. including the American
division, was reported unsettled on account
of the more threatening aspect of the South
African situation, bur the dealings here for
foreign account were in small volume
There was practically no financial news
of any importance over Sunday, and the
strength of the market was chiefly at
Jributable TO the generally satisfactory out
side situation with which attention has
been taken for some time.

Art schools in Prison..

SING SING, n. Y. Aug. 2S.-Warden
Johnson will re-establish the art school in
Sing Sing Prison about September l. which
he abolished last month to put the con-
victs employed there at work in the sash
and blind shop. This art school had been
for two years one of the features of the
institution, and some unusually artistic
and ornamental woodwork was produced.
The men employed took deep interest in
the work Warden Johnson has received
several orders from various State depart
ments for material of that character. and
in consequence the convicts who have
learned to do that class Of work will set
aside the hammer and saw for the finer
implements of the wood-earver.

WILD POKER PLAYS BY MINERS
Exciting Games Indulged In
Three Returned Kiondikers.

Exciting Games INDUCED In by
Three Returned kiondikers.
Portland, Oregon, Aug. 2S.-A draw
poker game was played here in one of the
down town hotels Friday night by three re-
Gently arrived Alaskans, George Milford,
Parker Hamlin and Perry Smith, which in
point of recklessness has scarcely been
equaled.
The three lucky miners came here dur
ing the cary part of this week and put up
at the Esmond. From start to finish the
game was the most '.blooded' game ever
played here. The limit was 200 and a
new deck was opened each game. By II
o'clock there must have been one hundred
lookers-On in the rooms and the only SEN
sation outside was the hurrying upstairs to
keep the thirsty crowd in good humor The
game began by Mulford winning a IS, 500
pot on a bluff of two aces while his fellows
each held three small cards. The first two
hours or more all pots, some of them as
high as 81. 900 were raked in by the most
hazardous bluffs, the winning hand not ex-
ceeding pair Of jacks and three deuces
At the beginning of the third hour, how
ever, the game was being more fairly con-
Quoted, hands calling on their merits and
none containing more than $500. An hour
after midnight the game drew to a close
and Mulford, Smith and Hamlin again re-
sorted to bluffing. The limit had been
raised to $4,000. Mulford, after contrib
uting $4,000 to pot dropped out and it was
subsequently shown that he had tried to
scare the other players with two kings.
From that time the widest excitement
reigned among the champagne soaked
crowd, but Smith and Hamlin did not lose
their equanimity. Hands were raised from
time to time until the lucky one stood to
win $4,000. AS the clock struck 1 Ham
lin hoarsely said: Damn it, Hank, you
have either three big or four small ones
and I'll pass"
The players threw up their hands, sur
prising each other. Smith held two queens
and two tens, while the other had three
fives. 1t was at this juncture when Smith
was raking in the collateral that Hamlin
gave utterance to a string of blasphemy
such as is rarely heard on earth. Mulford
and Hamlin subscribed to an oath before a
magistrate later. vowing never to play an
other game of cards during the rest of their
lives. u tI1j
