THE CHANCE GOD GIVES.

"I'n pass this way but once fool cried
out,
"And therefore / will laugh and take my
ease;
Let others toll and sweat and fret and
doubt,
And miss the chance God gives them, if
But i will journey down the careless ways
And ope my eyes to none but happy days.
'I'll pass this way but once" another said,
Hence all that God laid out for me to do
must be doing rs fare ahead.
That He may say: We'll done when 1
am through
BY word and deed I'll do my best to spread
Good cheer along the pathways that
tread"
The wise man did his work and did 1t well,
And people blessed him as he went along,
And fewer tears, because he labored. fell
And higher swelled the chorus of the
song
The song of joy God meant that men
should raise,
The splendid song of brotherhood and
praise.
The useless fool went dawdling here and
there,
Unmindful of all feelings but his own;
What If men sang or sobbed? He didn t
One morn he woke to find all pleasures

his tongue was thick and dry-he cursed
his lot
And shriveled up-ard passed-and was

An ola Custom I'm CIoyne.

I have known two or three old
priests in Cloyne diocese break up and
distribute among the poor girls of
their respective parishes their old and
worn vestments, for the purpose OF
being made into saint Patrick
crosses" The cross thus made (from
a priests vestment) to people of sim
pie faith was an object of veneration,
and have known many such forward
ed by their owners to their kindred
in America, where they were doubtless
received as welcome souvenirs of an
ancient custom in the land of their IA
theirs. Not a little curiosity is the
etiquette of those children's "Saini
Patrick's Crosses" for whereas il
would be considered effeminate of a
little boy to wear "a girls cross" il
would be considered most unbecomins
on the part of the little miss to don
q boys paper cross.-Donahoe's.

CHAPTER IX.-CoNTINUED.

well, now, Miss Ray, don't you
think it was most discourteous, most
ungentlemanly, in him to send such
a message?" demanded flushed and
indignant young woman, one of the
most energetic of the sisterhood, as
they stood together on the prom
enade deck in the shade of the canvas
awnings, stunning the glare of the
August sun.
Are you sure such a message was
sent?' was the serious reply.
Sure? Why, certainly he did! and
by his own servant, too" was the
wrathfu1> answer. Didn't he, Miss
POrter?"
And Miss Porter, the damsel ap-
pealed to, and one of the two nurses
who sent in their message from the
office, promptly assented. Miss Ray
looked unconvinced.
Servants, you know, sometimes de-
liver messages that were never sent, :"
she answered, with quiet decision.
1--WE have seen quite little of that
in the army, and it is my fathers
rule to get all the facts before pass
ing judgment. My brother thought
Mr.. Stuyvesant's attendant garrulous
and meddlesome."
''But 1 asked him if he was sure
that was what Mr.. Stuyvesant said,'
persisted Miss Porter, bridling, land
he answered they were just the very
words"
"And still 1 doubt his having sent
them as n message" said Miss Ray,
with slight access of color. and that
evening she walked the deck long
with happy subaltern and added to
her unpopularity.
There were several well-informed
and unpleasant women, maids and
matrons both, in the little sisterhood,
but somehow "the boys" did not show
them as they did with Miss Ray. She
sorely wanted talk with Sandy that
evening. but the Belgic had come in
from Frisco only six hours before
they sailed and huge bags of letters
and papers were transferred from
her to the Sacramento.
There were letters for Maidie and
Sandy both-several-but there was
one bulky missive for him that she
knew to be from her father, from
far-away Tampa, and the boy had
come down late to dinner. They had
seats at the table of the commanding
officer, thing Maidie had really
tried to avoid. as she felt that it dis
eliminated. somehow, against the
other nurses, who, except Mrs. DR..
Wells. their official head. were dis
tributed about the other tables, but
the major had long known and loved
her father, and would have it so.
This night. their first out from Homo
lulu, he had ordered wine-glasses on
the long table and champagne served,
and when dinner was well-nigh over
noticed for the first time that Ray
had turned his glass down.
"Why, Sandy" he cried. impulsive-

You are more to US than we have ever told

intense desire to take woman's part, we

To you We look to be her shield in every
possible way. We have never ceased to

soldier Will is making.) You have ever
been manful, truthful, and, l say it with

and trust and love unspeakable. You have
the best and fondest mother in the world,

yourself. Your manhood under God will
do the rest.
I'm love and confidence.

When Marion came tapping timidly
at the stateroom door there was for
a moment no answer. Sandy's face
was buried in his hands as he knelt
beside the little white berth. He
presently arose, dashed some water
over his eyes and brows, then shot
back the bolt and took his sister in
his arms.

boy. and greatly for the better. Looking
back over my boyhood, can recall 20 day
when wine was not served on your GRANDPA

no public occasion was complete without

TO SHORTEN OCEAN PASSAGE.
New Steamship Line Projected With
ireland for Eastern Terminus.

London, Aug. 1.-THE House of Lords
took an unusual step this morning on
suspending the seasonal order with the
object of passing on it's second read
ing the bill granting special powers to
build a pier and other works at Bere-
haven, in Bantry bay, Ireland, in con-
nection with the proposed fast steam
ship line from Berehaven to the United
States, by which it is hoped the voy-
age will be accomplished in four and
.onerhah days. The bill had already
passed the House of Commons.
The harbor bill is the work of an
Irish electric railroad company pro-
NOTED by S. G. Frazer, an engineer of
Dublin. The designs appear in their
initial stages. No date has yet been
announced for the beginning of the
work. 1t is understood that some
American capital has been guaranteed
in connection with the steamship SER
vices.
The enterprise includes an express
line across Southern Ireland and a
channel ferry connecting directly with
the Great Western Railroad for Lon
dom The cost of the Berehaven har-
bor works and the railroad will be
$500 900.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in shipping circles here by the
plans for the new transatlantic SER
vice. The shippers have been taken
somewhat by surprise. They generally
express the opinion that the projected
line will be equipped with turbine en-

Mary1aad's Attorney General VIII
Appear for SchIey.

Baltimore, Aug. 14.-It is announced
here to-day that Isidore Raynor, attos-
ney general for Maryland has been re-
tanned as one of the attorneys for Rear
Admiral Schley in his coming hearing
before the court of inquiry Mr.. Rag.
nor received a letter from Admiral
Schley on Sunday in which he was
asked to act as one of the counsel in
the case, and at once accepted the COM
mission.
Speaking of the case, he said To-
night:
Immediately upon the receipt of Ad-
miral Schley's letter requesting me to
become one of his counsel in this cause
l began an examination of the case.
l had to some extent familiarized my
self with the general surroundings of
the controversy, but shall now enter
upon study of all its details and gath
er all the information obtainable. We
have four weeks in which to prepare
for the hearing of the case, and in that
time can readily acquaint myself with
all of Admiral Schley's movements and
those of hts squadron from the time IL
left Hampton Roads to the battle of
Santiago. and with the dispatches
ment to Admiral Sampson and from
Sampson to Schley.
when you anaIyze all the facts in
this case, as ! am trying now to do,
you Will find that with the exception
of two charges embraced in the pre-
cept-Admiral Schley's alleged failure
to destroy the Colon and his alleged
withdrawal 25 miles at night after the
establishment of the blockade off San
tiago-the whole controversy covers a
period of only nine days; that is, from
the time the flying squadron left Key
West for Cienfuegos until it started
back from Santiago by the Yucatan
passage for the purpose of coaling
ships. do not think, therefore, the
case will occupy as much time as con-
templated. as 1t win be the effort of
counsel, and no doubt of the court, to
get right down to the salient points of
the case. and hold up before the coun-
try every movement made by Admiral
Schley from start to finish"

dozen stills and a man of few words,
took exception to the proposed whole
sale cutting of wages. He contended
that the old law of supply and demand
would have to be taken into account,
and as long as the demand for the la
Dor of the turpentine hand kept UP
the rate of wages would remain high.
After the adjournment of the meet
ing MIR. Edwards talked still more
plainly. He said. II fear that there
will be no results from this attempt
to organize if the efforts of the or
ganizers are to be expended in the di-
rection of securing lower wages. The
day of low wages has gone forever in
the South. Labor is better organized
than ever and the opportunities for la
Dor are increasing. l venture to say
that even with present prices no oper-
ator would object to paying good
wages il he could be assured that the
labor he paid off on Saturday night
would report for work on Monday. The
fault lays not In the rate of wages,
but in the tendency on the part of
the operators to encourage this migra-
tory spirit of the laborer. This business
of advances to hands is most perni-
cious and the commisasry methods are
to be deplored."
Mr. Edwards had number of mem
bcrs who sided with him. He is heart
lily in favor of curtailing the cutting
of boxes.
The committee appointed to draft
constitution and bylaws for next
meeting when a permanent organiza-
ton will be effected, was as follows:
Messrs McEachern, Pridgen, Peacock,
Mccall and the chairman.
Messrs. Myers, McEachern and w.
f. Coachman were appointed COM
mittee to await on the railroad author
tiles and endeavor to secure rates
which will insure a large attendance
at the September meeting at this
place. Branch organizations will in the
meantime be formed, The leaders in
the movement express themselves as
satisfied of the progress already made.
An afternoon session mostly devoted
to the discussion of the best methods
of organizing was held, and the meet
ing adjourned.

10, give accounts of numerous engage
ments in the state of Tachira between
President Castros forces and the rev.
olutionists. In Gen. Castros official
bulletins he mentioned the Colombian
army. He reported engagements since
the battle of San Cristobal, July 30, at
Princes, Las Felipas, La Parada, La
Grita, Encontrados. Colon and Las
Cumbres, all in Tachira. The Vene-
zuelan casualties, according to Castro's
official bulletins, were Gen. Rosendo
Madina and four colonels killed, and
800 men killed or wounded. Madina was
a prominent man. He was formerly a
governor and senator Aug 8 there was
an encounter at Las Cumbres with
second force of revolutionists.
The News Caracas correspondent,
writing Aug. 10, says another army
has invaded Venezuela. This second
force is reported to number 5000 men.

As soon as he could gasp Curry said:

and he was quickly lowered into the
shaft.
In few minutes the unconscious
men were brought up more dead than
alive.
The tugs that hurried out to the
scene as soon as the fire was discov-
cred, succeeded in rescuing no less than
twenty men, who were found clinging
to wreckage and ropes tied to the
burning structure.
A Death Trap.
The tunnel, which has been under
course of construction for several years
past and is still far from complete.
has been the cause, all told, of the loss
of more than thirty lives.
-Four years ago an explosion in the
shore section of the tunnel resulted in
the suffocation of eighteen men. Two
years ago in a similar accident several
more men were killed at almost the
same place, and to-day's catastrophe
adds at least ten additional names to
the death list.
The fire which destroyed the crib
this morning was due to an overheated
boiler smokestack. The boiler exploded
soon after the flames broke out.
The crib itself was of pine timber
built up straight from the waters
edge. The men, who were asleep in
their hunks. sprang up to find them
selves in the midst of the flames. The
boards all around them were burning
fiercely. Down in the shaft, under the
lake, eleven men were at work dig
ging, unconscious until the air supply
was cut off, of the awful holocaust
above them.

THAT / cannot say-certainly not at

you can tell from the fact that the

xueIa Situation.
Washington, Aug. 14.-No important
developments in the Colombia -Vene-
zuela situation was made known to
the State Department during the early
part of to-day, and the reported death
of Gen. Uribe-Uribe could not be af-
firmed in any official quarter. 1t is ex-
pected that the Machias win complete
her coaling and taking on of ammuni-
tion by tonight and will be off for
Panama by tomorrow morning. In
this connection 1t is noted that the
French warshfp Suchet has arrived at
Colon. Although the French are un-
derstood to have considerable property
interests on the Isthmus, it is said
that there is no provision in the treaty
between France and Colombia similar
to that in the treaty between France
and the United States requiring that
free transit across the isthmus shall be
kept open. However it is not doubted
that the presence of the Suchet will
have a salutary influence in quieting
disorder. The statements made in the
French press, to the effect that the
incident on the isthmus might lead to
an American acquisition in that quar-
ter. received no attention or credence
in the best posted official quarters.
