Secure good name to thyself by liv-
ing virtuously and humbly, but let this
good name be nursed abroad and never
be brought home to look upon it. Let
others use it for their own advantage.
Let them speak of it if they please. But
do not thou use it at all but as an in
strument to do God glory and thy
neighbor more advantage Let thy face,
like Moses. shine to others, but make
no looking glass for thyself.-Jeremy

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.

Topic For the Week Begiuning Aug.

ToPIc.-Green pastures; the Christians pleas
ures.-Ps. xiii, 1-6.
The Twenty-tbird Psalm is the most
widely known and most popular of all
the Psalms of David. 1t is taught to us
in childhood. comforts us in youth and
manhood. and strengthens us when ad-
vancing age speaks of the valley Of
the shadow of DEATH 1t breathes a
spirit of calm and sublime trust in God
II speaks of Gods care of the soul nm
der the figures of the Shepherd, who
leads His sheep ''into the green pastures
and beside still waters, and that of
the bountiful Host. who annoints the
head of His guest with oil and who
causes his cup to run over And there
is included also the sweet peace. pro-
found serenity and trustful happiness
of the one whom God thus cares and
provides. And where in all the world
can be found peace and happiness
equal to this peace and happiness OF the
soul, which may be called the Chris
tian's joy or pleasuref
/ God is the source of the Chris
tian's pleasure He. as a shepherd.
leads us into green pastures and beside
still waters He. as host, anoints
our heads with oil and deals SO h0unti-
fully with MS that our cups run over
The JOY of the Lord is our strength
The Christians pleasure is therefore
spiritual rather than sensual 1t comes
from union with God, from blessings
derived from God, from service for
God. from fellowship and communion
with the people of God.
g. The worldliDg cannot understand
the Christians pleasure. 1t is spiritual
and can only be discerned by the spir'
itual 1t is as unintelligible to the in
experienced as the conversation of those
who speak in foreign, unknown
tongue They understand and enjoy it

Mr.. James J. Hollings is meeting
with great success in establishing
branches of the Union Literary
League, an organization which intro
duces to labor unions the first great
encyclopedia which is printed with
the imprimatur of the Allied Printing
Council. 1t is a surprising fact that
none of the great publishing houses
use the official label on their publi-
cations, and it is the purpose of the
Union Literary League to demon
strate that the refusal to do so costs
no little volume of business. Chand-
ler's Encyclopedias, three volumes,
covers a wide range of useful infor-
nation, embraces pretty much all
that II workingman will have time or
inclination to digest, and is well
adapted to meet such emergencies as
frequently arise in the homes of the
middle classes, to which larger and
more pretentious encyclopedias are
strangers, the price of them being
prohibitive. To boom the union
label and at the same time to put in
every workingman's home good
standard publications, the Union
Literary League was created. Agents
are wanted everywhere. Address

A SUMMONS has been mailed to
Senator Hanna, who is in Europe,
notifying him to appear before the
board of equalization at Cleveland
to make a return of property for
taxation. Uncle Mark is probably
too busy mailing contributions to the
Republican state fund for the
Moulding of Public Opinion" to pay
any attention to little thing like
taxes.
THE reason why Colonel Dick has
decided to open Hanna and CoX's
campaign in Summit county this
year is obvious, says the Geauga
County Record. In 1897, Dick,
Hanna's check book bearer, left not
n stone unturned to elect the two
Republican candidates to the Legis-
lature, but Notwithstanding his
efforts, Hanna's money and elo-
queuce (?) the Democratic represen-
tatives were elected. Boss Hanna
when he heard the returns from
Summit soundly berated and pro-
fanely admonished Click in failing to
carry his home county. This is the
reason Dick decided to fire the
opening guns in Summit county for
the fall campaign.

THREATS OF MRS. GEORGE
Conversation Related In witch She
Accosted James ~. snSton In
n McnncInR WY.

CANTON, o., April A-During the trial
OF Mrs. Annie George today, numerous
threats by Mrs. George against the life Of
George d.. Saxton were testified to by Wit
nesses. Many Of the statements we're coupled
with Mrs. Georges story Of the alleged
wrongs to her at Saxton's hands, which she
told tho Witnesses In connection with her
threats.
All was not smooth sailing for the state
today. Tho prosecution had expected 10 in
troducc a chemical analysis Of tho cuticlc
taken from Mrs. Georges hand when she
was arrested. and prove thereby that the
discoloratiOn was due 10 powder smoke. The
witness was not allowed to testify. Another
disappointmcnt was the failure Of a witness
TO satisfy the court that he was qualified
to Judge Of Mrs. Georges writing and thus
Identify a letter which 1t was sought to
prove she had written.
Additional cross examination OF Mrs, Mary
Finley opened today's proceedings in the
trial OF Mrs, George for the murder OF James
D.. SaKton. This was chiefly directed toward
proving that the witness had been coached
for her direct testimony.
Mrs. Mary Nauman related conversations OF
Mrs. George. In one the latter told OF hav-
Ing kept Saxton from entering the Althouse
home by pointing a pistol and making him
come away with her. Mrs. George asked
Saxton II he was ready to die and said she
could have killed him then, but wanted her
husband. Mr.. George, to get some Of his
money first. Witness also detailed other
threats made by Mrs. George.
In cro"ss-examining Mrs. Nauman the de-
Tense sought to have her relate Mrs.
Georges alleged grievances against Saxton.
Witness insisted, however. that Mrs. George
never told her Of the wrongs which she
claims Saxton inflicted upon her.
Mrs Nettie McAllister detailed a converse
tion with Mrs. George about a threat to kill
SaXton, about the pistol incident at the Alt
house home and the threatening letters.
john L. Jackson, a colored %janitor, trsti-
fed that Mrs. George often came to him at
the block where he worked and said to him
she would kill SaXton If he did not sl'tle
with her and quite going with Mrs. Althouse.

FORT DODGE, Ia, April 14.-CSpecial.) y
One of the most important decisions ever
rendered in the Fort Dodge courts is that
of Judge Weaver which has just been hled
relative to the Webster county swamp litiga-
ton. There are about 5000 acres of these
lands in Webster county and the dispute
over their possession has long been in the
courts. The dispute has arisen over the con-
fict of titles from the swamp land grant
of 1850 and that to the Dubuque & Pacific
railroad in 1856. Judge Weaver rendered a
decision on the ground of equitable estop-
pei for the occupants of the lands and
against the claims of the railroad grant. TIL
case will be appealed until it reaches its
final decision in the supreme court of the
United States. The swamp lands, like the
river lands, have been one of the most pro.
life sources of litigation in Iowa.

VIII wait

The meeting yesterday afternoon having
once more failed to result in the selec-
ton of a suitable location for the new
High school building, the Board of Edu-
cation has decided to let the matter rest
in allegiance for a while and no more star
chamber sessions will be held for the pres
ent. The regular monthly meeting of the
board occurs Monday night, but it is said
to be doubtful il the site question will be
brought up then.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon two
informal ballots were taken, but as there
appeared to be no uniformity Of opinion
among the members 1t was decided to bring
the matter to a head by a formal vote for
fear of having to go through the process
again of reconsidering the action. One of
the informal ballots gave the Oakland site
four votes, but 1t could not be learned
which member had added his vote to those
of Sims, Stewart and Swaine, who have
publicly announced their intention Of vot-
ing first, last and all the time for this
site.
The Aylesworth property, at Fifth avenue
and Eighth street, got two votes on each
ballot and the Street tract secured one.
Members Moore and Henry championed the
Street property and suggested that the site
could be made adaptable for the build
ing by lowering the grade of Third street.
This, they said, they thought the city would
consent to do If the matter were properly
laid before the city fathers.
Contractor Wickham, who requires the dirt
for the Fort Dodge G. Omaha railroad
dump, submitted a proposal to the board
to grade the Oakland avenue property on
the most advantageous terms. but the prop
erty not being selected as the site the pro-
posal was laid on the table. Wickham's
offer had a stipulation attached to the effect
that it was only good for twenty-four
hours.
Some of the members OF the board resent
the manner in which they have been crit
icised for holding their meetings behind
closed doors and claim that they have a
perfect right to do so If they see At.
