hallu III uallu'
A hoary head in the way Of un-
godliness is one of the saddest sights
that a thoughtful mind can look
upon.
As it is beautiful sight to see a
Young man walking in his upright.
ness, so is it crown Of honor for an
old man to walk in the ways Of
righteousness.
If ships sent out on early mar
hoods sea are we'll freighted with
virtue, in old age they will return
well laden with peace and visions Of
the verdant land not far away.
As the old mans limbs do not
move in obedience to his will so
|
readily as they did in the days OF
his youth, so he finds, also, that his
moral actions are not so easily con-
trolled as they were when he was
young.
An ungodly old mln is not king
but a Slave-a slave to sinful habits,
to the inirmities OF age, to the fear
of death; while his aged sanity
brother reigns king over himself,
and his hoary hairs are a symbol of
his kingship.
He who does the right because he
is in love with it and not for fear Of
the consequences that follow wrong
doing, nor because of the respecta-
bility that right living gives him, is a
happy man, because his faculties
are acting right, out of his love for
the right.
Aged brother, when those hands
Of yours shall be puIseless and cold
and death shall have spread your
couch and woven your shroud; when
the winding sheet shall be your sole
vesture, and the lowly sepulchre
your only home, you will have moth
ing unless you have laid it up in
God.
Remember your body is the tenn
pie for the indwelling Eternal Spirit
As it has cost God infinite thought
to make it, man may well pay great
price to perfect it.
Christianity is not series OF for
NAL acts, or a string Of set phrases;
bnt it is a life, pervadIng all our
activities, and making every part Of
mans career sublime.
A man breaches more intelligently
to people whom be knows than to
comparative strangers. People are
better known by seeing them in
their homes and environments.
Therefore to more intelligently pre-
sent the truth from Gods word, from
the pulpit, the people must be
mingled with in their homes and
social surroundings.
Some people talk as though they
thought by throwing away their
Bible, all religion would go with it.
That by getting rid OF the book they
would get rid of God and the re-
quirements Of the moral law. But
you cannot get away from yourself
and your environment by kick al
the blessed old book, which shows
you your faults and points the way
to higher and nobler manhood.

ployes of this city an increase in their
wages of 10 per cent, will go into

total increase of $4,000 each week
and yearly increase in wages Of

LOST IN LAKE ERIE
The steamer Niagara sinlES ana Her
Crew Of I6 Men Perish.

Buffalo, N. Y, Dec. Lit Is now
certain that the steamer Niagara
foundered on Tuesday evening last
about eight miles east of Long Point,
Lake Erie, with all hands, numbering
16 persons. Tugs sent out from
Port Colbourne and from Buffalo to
search for the missing steamer have
returned, bringing with them great
quantities of wreckage picked up near
where the steamer is supposed TO have
foundered. The wreckage includes q
part of the Niagara's deck, portions
of the cabin, deck beams, other ma
terial and a quantity Of shingles
marked PARRY Sound" from which
port the Niagara sailed for Buffalo
Judging from the amount Of wreckage
that has been found, the Niagara must
have been broken up badly in the
storm.
1t is the opinion of lake captains
that the boat went down in deep
water about eight miles east of Long
Point, as none Of her spars have been
found, and if she had gone down In
shallow water they would be sticking
up.
The storm which destroyed the Nj
apara was one of the worst that ever
ragged over Lake Erie. The wind was
blowing a gale of As miles an houI
and it was showing heavily. Even
the largest and strongest boats made
for shelter and it is the opinion OF
vesselmen that Capt. McGlory at
tempted to turn his boat around and
run under Long Point and in doing
so encountered the full force OF the
storm, his craft going to pieces.
The Niagara's cargo consisted OF 8,
100000 shingles, insured for $500
The vessel was valued at $4,000 and
was uninsured.
Sunday afternoon small boat oi
the same size and color as those car
ried by the Niagara was found pound
ing on the rocks at Cassady's Point
a few miles below Port Colborne. The
supposition is that some of the crew
of the Niagara managed to launcf
this boat, but were washed overheard
or that the boat capsized. The pilot
house of the Niagara was also fount
floating in the lake.

LOSS OF A MILLION.
Augusta, Ga, Suffers Severely from q
COnnagratiOn.

OOuuhSFAlOns
Augusta, Ca, Dec. ia fire which
had its origin in a dry goods store here
shortly after o'clock Sunday morn
ing, burned four hours and laid waste
a solid block in the center of the busi-
ness portion of the city. The dam
age will approximate $1.0O0,OOO. There
were no casualties.
The flames were discovered on the
second floor of the big wholesale and
retail dry goods store of j. B. White
and by the time the fire department
had responded to the alarm the flames
were beyond control. Chief Roulette
sent in general alarm and seeing
that the entire department would have
great difficulty In conquering the fire,
wired Macon and Savannah for help.
The Arlington annex and the stores
beneath it, all part Of the old Cen
tral hotel property, abutted the store
Of j. B. White on the uptown side and
all were involved in the first onslaught
of the flames after getting ouside OF
Whites big store.
Next came Masonic hall, a band
some three-story building, occupied
by Offices and lodge rooms. Into this
the flames ate their way from the rear,
Soon the structure was thoroughly
ablaze and it was seen that there was
no longer any possibility that the Ar
lington hotel could be saved. AS soon
as the fire was discovered the guests
of the Arlington were awakened.
There was much excitement in the
hotel. Guests, bewildered at the noise
and glare of the flames, ran hither and
thither, apparently dazed. All made
their escape by the stairways.

1t is limited that Camden is to be
incorporated again, but we don't
know how the people in town are
on the question, but the people in
the country are unutterably oppos-
ed to it. A corporation at Camden
means the sale Of whisky-no more,
and no less. There is more whisky
drank by the boys in the country
when it is sold publicly, and we do
not think the people of Camden can
afford to legalize its sale at the cost
of the young men and boys of the
town and country or jeopardize the
happiness of hundreds of fathers
and mothers merely for the small
amount Of revenue to be derived
from the sale of whisky. We want
to hear from others on the subject.
