question. he FELT sure, was the question
OF many and many a man in the min
istry and in the church He went to his
window and opened it. He was OPP
pressed with the weight of his convic-
lions. and he felt almost suffocated with
the air of the room He wanted to see
the stars and feel the breath of the
world
The night was very still The clock
in the First church was striking mid
night AS it finished a clear, strong
voice down in the direction of the Rec
tangle came floating up to him as if
borne on radiant pinions
Must Jesus bear the alone
And all the world go free?
No! There's cross for every one.
And there's cross for me-"
1t was the voice of one of Gray's old
converts, a night Waterman at the
packing houses. who sometimes solaced
his lonesome hours by a verse or two
from some familiar hymn
The Rev Calvin Bruce turned away
from the window, and after a little
hesitation he kneeled down "What
would Jesus do? What would Jesus
dor Never had he yielded himself so
completely to the Spirit searching re-
vealing of Jesus He was on his knees a
long time, He retired and slept fitfully,
with many awakenings. He rose before
it was clear dawn and threw open his
window again AS the light in the east
grew stronger he repeated to himself
What would Jesus do? What would
he do2 Shall follow his steps?'
The sun rose and flooded the city
with it's power When shall the dawn
of a new discipleship usher in the con-
quering triumph of closer walk with
Jesus? When shall Christendom tread
more closely the path he NADER
1t is the way the Master trod.
Shall not the servant tread it still?
With this question throbbing through
his whole being the Rev. Calvin Bruce
went back to Chicago, and the great
crisis Of his Christian life in the min
istry suddenly broke irresistibly upon
him.

ENlatonla. Texas, October 6.-The
boiler of gin situated six miles west
of Flatonia and belonging to Wink
WINFIELD, a wealthy colored farmer.
exploded at about noon yesterday
with disastrous results. Five people
were killed outright and six badly
wounded are: Alice Watsn, Etfie
WINFIELD Eel Anderson, Della Cline,
Ruby Cline, Pollon Wilson. The
wunded are: Alice Watson, Efie
Lee, Alb Bolton, Albert Martin, Wink
WINFIELD and Henry McMicken.
The last two mentioned are owners
and managers respectively of the gin
and are almost sure to die The above
are all colored people except Henry
McMicken, who was in charge The
gin house was totally destroyed. The
boiler was blown 100 yards out of po-
sitlon and piles of iron and debris
were strewn in every direction. Not
a single portion of the gin was left
standing and there is nothing to indi-
cate where the gin once stood. Four
of the dead are children and were In
the gin yard at the time of the ex-
plosion and were blown yards away.
The body of Flonle WINFIELD was, af-
ter some time, found In hog pen,
thirty yards distant, where it had
been blown, and when found the flesh
had been torn By the hogs from the
body so as to render her almost I'M
recognizable.
The accident is supposed to have
been caused by the water having been
allowed to get too low in the boiler.

NEWSPAPERS IN RUSSIA.


Journals Arc Permitted to Print Only
News Authorised by the Censor.
The Russian government has gone
into the business of publishing news
itself, has established a regular press
bureau for the circulation of news and
supplies all homo newspapers now
Win foreign news. State Councillor
Naratoff is the editor-in-chlef of
news on questions of current politics.
Should Russian newspaper dare
to handle news In manner
different from that in which it is
furnished the censor takes hold
at once. And 1t is a pretty hard
case for which the censor can
not find handle, as was shown by
Count Uvaroff when he found an ex-
cuse for warning an editor enemy by
citing his eulogy of Pushkin. The edi-
tor had said nothing against the gov
eminent implying disrespect or crlti-
cism of the government in his article,
but Uvaroff found that Pushkin chad
no position in the government service.
was neither captain nor a head of
department and was only verse
writer" So the editor wes warned"
and a warning is a serious thing, for
it means that the next offense may be
punished summarily by the suppress
sion of the paper. Thus one paper, the
Gazeta Gatzuka. was warned once and
then suppressed for want of respect
for the nobility" The motive of a
minister's refusal to authorize a new
publication are sometimes curious
enough For instance, not more than
three years ago the permission to pub
lish a private newspaper in Tamboy
was refused on the ground that the
necessity for such a publication there
has not ripened yet" and that ''the
local official paper is quite efficient for
the place." Sometimes a refusal is
based on the fact that the local censor,
having various other official duties has
work enough without new paper

Crisis Is Approaching.

Nilkesbarre, Pa, October 6.-The
crisis in the coal miners strike seems
to be approaching. AS was stated in
the Associated Press dispatches from
here yesterday, both sides are playing
waiting game and each imagines
that it has the winning card up its
sleeve. 1t is now up to President
Mitchell to decide what he is going
to do. If he delays with the idea the
operators will make a better offer he
is liable to delay settlement of the
strike indefinitely. An analysis of
the 10 per cent increase offered shows
that the average miners wages would
not be Increased 10 per cent should
they return to work, but 1t is argued
it is better than nothing; that is the
entering wedge, and that if the Unit
ed Mine Workers keep their organiza-
ton intact they can compel the oper-
ators to make further concessions in
the years to come. 1t is said that
President Mitchell takes this view
himself.
