IhE EALING DEW.

Down through the darkness OF the night
The gentle dews Of heaven descend,
Until the new moon flashes bright,
And darkness fees and shadows end.
So in lifes dark and gloomy hours,
When sorrows night enshrouds the soul,
The dews of grace, like spirit showers,
Descend to strengthen and console.
The Christians life is not all day,
1t has its nights Of deepest gloom.
When clouds and darkness wrap his way
A darkness that no stars Hume.
Like the parched grass beneath his feet,
Whose life is trampled into dust,
And withered meath the furnace heat.
He reels beneath each fiery thrust.
But through the dark and starless night,
In His good time, the dews OF grace
Come down with healing and respite,
And verdure fresh now fills each place.
'Tis in the dark our eager hands
Reach out and feel and search for God:
We wait In silence His commands,
Through all the gloom our souls en-
shroud.
As dew upon the dry, parched grass
Clothes with new life and sheen the fields,
30 o'er the heart. though hard as brass,
The Spirit strength and quickening
wields.
The dropping, fainting soul revives,
Az on II falls the dew Of grace;
A faith grows strong all graces thrive,
And all things wear smiling face.
Were there no night we ne'er should see
The stars that shine above our head.
No dew on parched earth or tree
Would its refreshing virtue shed.
Had we no seasons Of distress,
Nor hours of darkness, grief or pain,
We ne'er should know how He can bless,
Nor how much from those things we
gain.

Work

QUEER CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR.
An American Wonnn Pleaded Guilty
10 Theft In "a London PO-
lice Court.

London. July 1s.-Caroline Y Reyes
pleaded guilty in the Marylebone po-
lice court TO the charge of stealing
gold watch, bracelet, hair brush and
articles of clothing of the aggregate
value of R22 from rooms in Norfolk
Mansions hotel, where she had been
staying. When Miss Keyes was ar.
rested, after series OF deninls, she
finally opened her trunk and dis
played the missing articles, Her ex-
plnnation was that she had been
drinking brandy, and while under the
influence of the liquor took the prop
erty. When she realized the enormity
of her act the next morning she tried
to replace the stolen property, but
was unable to gain access to the rooms
she had robbed. In the course of the
hearing Miss Reyes said she was an
American, and had come to London to
attend the Worlds Christian En-
deavor convention as a delegate from
church in Minnesota. Ultimately
Miss Keyes, who said she was without
monGE,wns remanded TO allow her to
call witnesses as TO her character.

BRIGHTENS THE SITUATION.
The Capture of Tien Tsi9 Clear
Away u Vast Amount of Ap-
prehensiOn at Washington.

Washington, July 1s.-The whole
Chinese situation was materially
frightened upon the receipt of Ad-
miral Remeys cable report of the cap
ture of Tien Tsin by the allies. The
press dispatch showing that this was
the native walled city, cleared up an
ambiguity that was contained in the
admira's dispatch and swept away the
last doubt in the official mind as to
the importance of the victory. The
hostile Chinese have been driven out
of the shelter Of the city into the open
plain, and the allied force has quad
rupled its efficiency in combat by
placing the Chinese in this position. 1t
Is not doubted that the forward move
ment on Pekin will begin as soon as
the cavalry contingent has arrived
from japan, which should be within u
day or two.
The moral effect Of the defeat Of the
allies at Tien Tsin would have been
terrible, according to army officers,
and would have been followed by the
extension of the Boxers" revolt TO all
parts of China. Even the Chinese min
lister now thinks that this blow has
done much to crush the rebellion. He
also talks of peace commissions in a
most significant way.
