Either to have the present situation

ago the country was struggling

a certainty. Let the voters choose.

Value of ExpOsitiOns.

Among the objects which attract
ed the attention of a wel1-knon Wis
cousin manufacturer at the Centen-
NAL Exposition at Philadelphia in
1876 was steam hammer of par
ticular make. In 18e6-twenty
years 1ater-he found occasion to
use a steam hammer, and remember
ing the name of the eastern manu-
facturer of the one that he had seen,
sent for the machine and set it up
finding as he had excepted, that|it
was great convenience. His busi-
ness has since increased, and he has
purchased two more steam hammers
from the firm that sold him the first.
The of the hammers was $500 apiece.
Here then, were three sales, amount
ing to So, 100, effected as a result
of an exhibit was made-and no
doubt the exhibit brought a great
many earlier profitable returns. 1t
certainly pays every manufacturer
to exert himself to secure wide pub
licity for the merits of his products.
Newspaper advertising isone avenue
to publicity. Exhibiting at exposi-
tions is another. Both are good,
and neither will be habitually neg
h1ected by enterprising men.

not Kept anything like the same
pace 1t is said to be explained by
the depletion caused in the rural
alstrlcts owing to the large num-
oers young people who have flock
eo 70 the cities for the larger oppor-
tunities the citers are supposed to
offer. The periodicals abound in
accounts Of men who have achieved
tame and fortune in cities, and the
boys areotten lured by the glitter. The
lives Of successful farmers are not
SO often recorded in the public
prints. 1t is taken for granted that
tarm life is a hard life, yielding
SLOW returns as the reward Of brain
effort and industry. Under this
prevailing impression it is refresh
ing to hear of a farmer living in
DeLand, Platt county, Illinois, who
mas given to a Western college $40, :
900 and two hundred acres of land
valued at $Ioo an acre.
This farmer, 7. E. Bondurant, is
worth over S35o,ooo, all of which
he has made in his sixty odd years
without cramping his nature or
working himself so hard as to cause
him to complain. He made his
hrst money by breaking prairie
lands where his farm is now located.
He saved what he could, without
being stingy or ungenerous, and
invested it in lands. His career
has been that of an honest, Christian
gentleman. He has not been
obliged to tramp1e down others in
the crowd to gain his, competence.
All over the broad acres of
America farmers nearly as well-to-
do, and in many instances more SO,
can be found. While our young
men are seeking examples of sue
cess they will do well not to look too
slightingly at the farms. Farm
life, and gaining a foothold in ag-
ricultural pursuits, may offer hard
ships, but there is also a freedom
and independence about it, while
the cities are full of competition
and heartache.-X0 Young Peoples

about a possibility Of joint action
by the powers, at least so far as it
relates to the "open doors" and the
territorial integrity of China. Six
powers, namely, Italy, Austria, ia
pan, the United States, France and
Russia, accept the clauses relative
to those two questions, and the first
three have given unconditional as
sent to the whole of the agreement.
The last three powers withhold ac-
ton on the clause relating to future
action in case Of the seizure Of ter
ritory by any power. The powers
seem determined to insist upon the
execution of Prince Tuan, with
whom, they demand, ten of the
other Leading spirits in the late
disturbance must be put to death.
The powers have agreed upon the
indemnity which China will have
to pay. 1t will be heavy one,
amounting to 100000, 900, the
largest ever demanded of any ma
ton for failure to fulfill its obi.
cations under international law
China will have to content itselt
with the reflection that its territor,
ial integrity, SO lately seriously
threatened, has now some prospect
of being preserved. -

DYNAMITE EXPLOSION.

By the explosion of box Of dy-
Mantle caps which had been acci-
IDENTIFY thrown into the heating
stove in Geer & Cummins' hard
ware store, at Burns, Thursday,
four persons were injured, two of
them seriously, The injured are:
I. S. Geer, VIM. Cummins, George
Hill and F. McClintock. The first
two are the most seriously injured.
Mr.. Geer was struck on the side of
the head by a piece of the broken
stove, and other pieces struck him
in the side and on the hip. Cum
Minis was struck in the eye, on the
side of the head, and had an arm
badly shattered. The eye has since
been removed. Hill and McClin~
took both received wounds in the
legs, pieces of iron going through
these limbs. The injured are get
ting along as we'll as could be ex-
pected at this time. The interior
of the stove was badly wrecked by
the explosion. A piece of the stove
over two, inches square could not be
found. A large hole was made in
the floor, the two rear windows
were blown out and considerable
damagedone tothe show cases, shelf
goods and front windows. A piece
of iron was found sticking in the
steel safe, having penetrated nearly
a quarter of an inch.-Delemar

The Christian Spirit.

+~ The true Christian spirit marked
the words Which the Rev. DR. Ar
thur j. Brown uttered at the union
services yesterday in memory of
the slaughtered missionaries of Lao
ling Flu. When he said that a
call tor vengence would not honor
the memory Of those who perished
SO pitifully, he stated truth which
every Christian is bound to recon
lzer and respect. Hisfc announce
ment that no indemnity would be
asked for the lives of the mission
aries, since their ''b1ood cannot be
measured in dollars and cents" is
noteworthy, not only forsits nobi1i-
ty, but also because of the impor-
tant position held by the speaker,
who is one of the secretaries of the
Presbyterian board of missions. IF
this programme is adhered to the
Chinese are much more likely to
realize, as the Rev. DR.. Brown
wishes them to, that at any. rate
"the Protestant Christians of Ameri-
ca went to China for their good
and not for their money then if
vengeance be taken into human
hands and the sword be called on to
safeguard future missions by whole
sale slaughter. As DR.. Brown al
so pointed out, the Chinese canread
and write and know what is going
on among the powers. What bet
ter chance could there be than is
now offered to the church to- show
the Chinese, by every word and deed,
the practical value as. well as the
true meaning Of the teachings of
the Prince of Peace?-New York

Fathers, of. West Pointers.

Perhaps some of the boys among
my young readers feel special in
terest and a, drawing toward the
military academy at West Point.
Few of us get through boyhood
without a period of what may be
termed the war fever, and in these
recent years there seems to be more
encouragement for that fever than
for many years past. Outsiders
are apt to feel thatpolitical pull and
social standing are requisite to gain
access to West Point. This is not
at all the case. A fine average in
the difficult examinations, through
which an applicant must go, is the
thing of the greatest Importance.
In recent years West Point has be-
come as representative a body as
can be found anywhere in the world
almost every walk or calling of life
being represented by the fathers of
the young men at present there.
A recent examination of the rec
ords of nearly four hundred cadets
for the past ten years shows that
outside the sons of army officers, of
which there were sixty-fve, I4o
were sons of farmers, IFS SONS of
merchants, 700 sons of lawyers, 81
sons ofirnanufacturers, 20 sons of
1Etnechanics, SO sons of insurance
agents, 1o sons ofreal estate agents.
E14 sons of c1ergymen; I3 sons of
editors, bankers, bookkeepers, 10
of druggists, 9 of sdrummers, 8 OF
school teachers, and of dentists.
Among the others almost every call
ing is represented by the fathers OF
one or more-the 1aborers with S
and policemen, hotel men, band
leaders, fishermen, dairymen, bar
bers, brewers, undertakers and uni,
versity presidents among them

When we reflect that the district

one-half Of the population of our

this number never enter the high

we are justly proud Of the patrons
of District, No. ID, for the prosper
ity Of our school.

The Real "Yeli0w Peril. "

There is not white man living
who can speak on Chinese affairs
with more intimate know1ege Of the
subject than Sir Robert Hart. He
has lived in the Middle Kingdom
more than forty years, and more
than half of that time has been
the administrative head Of the
maritime customs service. Hav-
ing been thus long an official ofthe
empire, lie has had an inside view
ofChinese conditions-an advantage
that no mere spectator, however
acute, can share, The words of
Sir Robert, therefore, are entitled
to respect, and when he says that
the course in China-the occupa-
ton of Monchuria and the llttoral
Of the Gulf of Pe-chili by the Rus
slams, the German operations ID
Shan Tung, Interpretations OF the
for an invasion in the South trom
Tonquin and the numerous eXped1-
tions of the allied forces from Pc
king andTien Tsin--Will inevitably
lead to the downfall of the re1gnlng
dynasty, he, in all probably, speaks
the truth.
The subversion of the Manchu
or Using dynasty seems to be re-
qarded in Europe as a matter OF no
consequence, or even asa thing to be
desired: but, in the opinion of Sit
Robert, the downfall of the Tsings
would usherin a real, not tanclfuI,
