God Infinitely Wise.

But we live in times when there are
so many clashings. There seems al
most universal unrest. Large fortunes
swallow up small fortunes. Civilized
nations trying to gobble up barbaric
nations. Upheaval of creeds, and peo-
pie who once believed everything now
believing nothing. The old book that
Moses began and st. John ended bonn
barded from scientific observatories
and college classrooms. Amid all this
disturbance and uncertainty that which
many good people need is not stim-
illus, but sedative. and In my text l
find it-divine observation and guild
ance of minutest affairs. And nothing
is to God large or small, planet or ant
hill, the God who easily made the
worlds employing his infinity in the
wondrous construction of q spiders
foot
Before we leave this subject let US
thank God for those who were willing
to endure the fatlgues and self sacri-
fees necessary to make revelation of

work right away ana rebuild as we.
as you can, knowing that what the
trowels of earthly industry fail to rear
the scepters of heavenly reward will
more than make up. Persistence Is the
lesson of every ant hill. Waste not q
moment in useless regrets or unhealthy
repining. Men fret themselves down
but no man ever yet fretted himself
up. Make the obstacles In your way
your coadjutors, as all those have who
have accomplished anything worth &C
complishment.

teal and accumulative use. His apol-
ogy was of no avail.
There is no need of our wasting time
and energy in longing for some other
sphere. There are plenty of people to
do the big and resounding work of the
church and the world. No lack Of
brigadier generals or master builders
or engineers for bridging Niagaras or
tunneling Rocky mountains. For every
big enterprise of the world a dozen
candidates. What we want is private
soldiers in the common ranks, masons
not ashamed to WELD trowel, candi-
dates for ordinary work to be done in
ordinary ways in ordinary places. Right
where we are there Is something that
God would have us do. Let us do 1T,
though 1t may seem to be as unimpor-
tant as the rolling of a grain of corn
into an ant hill.
Furthermore, go to the ant and con-
slider its indefatigableness. If by the
accidental stroke of your foot or the
removal of a timber the cities Of the
insectile world are destroyed, instantly
they go to rebuilding. They do not sit
around moping. At 1t again In sec
ond. Their fright Immediately gives
way to their industry. And If our
schemes of usefulness and our plans Of
work fail why sit down in discourage
ment? AS large ant hills as have ever
been constructed will be constructed
again. Put your trust in God and do
your duty, and your best days are yet
to come. You have never heard such
songs as you will yet hear, nor have
you ever lived in such grand abode as
you will yet occupy, and all the world
ly treasures you have lost are nothing
compared with the opulence that you
will yet own. If you love and trust
the Lord, Paul looks you in the face
and then waves his hand toward q
heaven full of palaces and thrones,
crying, "All are yoursp So that what
you fail to get In this present life you
win get In the coming Life. Go to

War in South America.

A dispatch to the New York Herald from Rio Janeiro, says: Alarming news, unfavorable to the Bolivian forces that are endeavoring to crush the socalled republic of Acre is con tinually arriving from Manaos.
 The Acre forces routed the Bolivians recently near Capathra in the rubber forests. Dispatches say the Bolivians retreated to Porto AlOnzo, are now surrounded by the rebels and are un- dergoing a siege.
 General Lucio Valasco, vice presi- dent of Bolivia, is reported to besieg- ed at Rio Sinso, where he took refuge with one of the armies operating in the forests.
 It is declared that numerous Bra Zilians are in the ranks of the rebels. most of whom went originally from Brazil into the so-called republic.
 The Bolivian minister has presented a note to the. minister of foreign af- fairs protesting against the participa- ton of any Brazilian officials or forces in the rebellion. The note declares that the Brazilian steamer Lutrea, which was used in operation against the Acreants, had been seized by Bra gillian expeditions coming from Ma naos and Para.
 It is asserted that the government has resolved to take steps to intervene in the Acre question, in view of the charges of the Bolivian minister that are aiding the rebels.

Ovation to Senator Quay.

A Washington telegram dated Jan. I7, says: Hon. Matthew Quay was yesterday reelected senator from Pennsylrania, and today presented himself at the bar of the senate and took the oath of office. His election was accomplished after a most mem orable contest and the scene today was no less noticeable. The galleries were thronged by gay and brilliant assemblage. The senator's friends had come from all. points of Pennsyl vania to witness the final scene of the great contest. Quay was assigned to the second seat in the back TOW on the republican side, formerly occupied by Hanna and the desk was loaded with flowers. Never in the history of the senate has a single senator been the recipient of flowers in such pro fusion. One of the handsOmest pieces was a huge Keystone arch of white immortals with Keystone of deep red immortals. The flowers came to the capitol literally by the wagon load and it was found impossible to dis play all ia the senate chamber. When Quay entered he was greeted with tremendous applause. His Creden- tials were presented by fTnrose and Quay was escorted to the desk and took the oath. Af.@ signing the roll hc -cs;f,i to his s J' 11t w37- ovt-

Salt Works Trouble.

The prospects at present are that the famous Salt works at Salton, Cali fornia. are liable to cost the owner a considerable amount for not having, when the mines were discovered, SC cured the lands from the government.
 For some years the salt has been mined and the property, according to the government agents who recently inspected the land, has been illegally mined from the fact that the land was the property of the government.
 The following revised statute GOV CTS the Salton Salt works, according to the United States authorities, and until congress passes a bill salt lands cannot be claimed in this state, as it is one of the prohibitive states, ac- cording to the statutes.
 The general land office law relating to disposal of saline lands is as fol- lows: Should the tracts be adjudged saline lands, the register and receiver will be instructed to offer the same for sale, after public notice, at the local land office of the district in which the same shall be situated, and to sell said tract or tracts to the highest bid der for cash at a price not less than S1.25 per acre.
 Tn case said lands should not be sold when so offered, they will be subject to private sale for cash at a price not less than Sl.25 per acre in the same manneras other public lands are sold at private sale"
 The provisions of this act do not apply to any lands within the territo- ries, nor to any within the states of Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Cali fornia or Nevada, none of which has a grant of salines by act of congress.
 An effort is being made to get special act through congress to per init the entry of the above lands.

A telegram from Butte, Montana, says: X pretty romance, involving the youngest son of Millionaire w. A. Clark, and Miss Mable Foster, ia vorite society of Butte and a niece if Lee w. Foster, of Oakland, and a successful oil man of California, be- came prominent today with the an- nouncement of the engagement of the young people.
 Young Clark, who is only 22, is one of the richest young men in the west. He is at least five times a millionaire in his own right. His wealth, how ever, has not spoiled him, and he is today one of the hardest working lawyers in Butte, being one of the retained attor- neys of his rich father. He also makes a speciality of pleading cases for those who cannot afford to pay fees.
 The young man, who has never shown a great partiality for the soci- of women, confessed that he had been a silent and devoted admirer of the young lady for nearly a year, but had been unable to boing about an intro duction until a few weeks ago, when they met at party given at the resi- dence of Senator Clark, which he had arranged himself. At the first meet ing he avowed his love and proposed marriage.
