A Hymn for Harvest.

Now to Thee, gracious Lord of tho
seasons, be honor and glory and
praise,
That again in the joy of the harvest
our Jubilant anthem we raise.
Though many the fears that beset ne
though faith wakes feeble and cold
Thy bow, with it's promise unbroken
glitters still as it glittered of old.
Though weary we grow in our wat.
ching the weeks Of the drought az
they pass,
When the earth is as iron beneath us
and the heaven above us as brass.
Yet the showers come back in their
season; once more in the land there
is seen
The brook trimming over with crystal.
the grass as the emerald green.
Though troubled the spirit within ia
when the mist upon valley and plain
Lies thick, and the clouds in their
armies return again after the rain
Yet the sun cometh forth as giant,
and after the tempest the morn
Is cloudless and fair, and the color
grows golden and rich on the corn.
For seedtine and harvest we thank
thae; cur fears as the shadows
have fed;
Thou hast given his seed to the sower:
thou hast given the eater his bread.
Alfred Church in London Spectator.

Over the bridge to Surrey!
Somehow the sun seems brighter

Certain am the maids are fair.
Whisper the breezes everywhere,

MarrIaae Knot one a veritx.

We often talk of the marriage
knot, says the Springfield Journal,
but very few of us realize that the
knot was ever anything more than q
figure of speech. Among the Baby
lonians tying the knot was part of the
marriage ceremony. The priest took
a thread from the garment of the
bride and another from that of the.
bridegroom and tied them into knot,
which he gave to the bride, thus sym
bolizing the binding nature OF the
union which now existed between her
self and her husband.

would do or avenge his own life in
the attempt.
Darkness at length came, but this
did not impede his movements in any
great degree. Thanks to his knowl-
edge of that section. he did not go
astray. Nearly all the time he was
upon the trail, although the darkness
was so dense that he saw it not.
1t was well on toward midnight
when he saw sign that told him he
was close upon those he sought. The
light of campfire shone before him
in the darkness, and his heart gave
a quick throb of joy and hope. The
moment for which he had longed was
close at hand.
With cautious footsteps he ap-
preached the spot whence the light
proceeded. Nearer and nearer he
drew, until at length he was SO close
that he could see plainly the situa-
ton of affairs before him.
The redskins, six in number, had
built their campfire close up to the
foot of steep cliff, and were huddled
closely about it.
A little apart from them lay his
wife upon the earth, her limbs bound
so that she could not rise Her babe
Death Rock ..! -. !! ...l. ~. 2
was upon her heart, and it was it's
cries that had called his attention to
the spot where they lay half hidden in
the darkness.
For few moments he did not move
from his tracks, but stood trying to
devise plan by which they might be
rescued with little risk to themselves
BY chance he cast his eyes to the
summit of the cliff. and in an instant
he saw means by which he thought
the savages.
A huge boulder which hung above
the very spot where they were hud-
died together about the fire, looked
as though a very slight effort would
send it crashing down upon them.
His wife and child were so far re-
moved from the spot that they would
be in no danger.
Hastily he decided to test the plan
suggested, and, retracing his steps a
little, he clambered to the summit of
the spot where the boulder lay, glanc-
ed below.
The savages were in the same posi-
ton as he had left them. Could he
but send it down upon their heads
Their was no chance for one of them to
escape.
Laying down his rife, he brought all
his strength to bear upon the rock
which was SO nicely balanced that it
moved slowly from its bed.
Straining every nerve, he finally
sent it to the edge, and then, as
though possessed of life, it bounded
over and went crashing down upon
the doomed savages below.
There was no time for sound to
escape their lips; but a wild, startled
cry came from those of the wife
With joyful shout Luke answered it,
and chen hastily descended to her side
He cast single glance in passing
at the spot where the bowlder lay
and saw that it had one it's work well
every one of the savages had been
crushed to death.
With heartfelt joy Luke set his wife
at liberty, and then, without loss of
time, they started back for their cab
IN, which the redskins had spared from
the flames. The cliff was called the
Death Rock, and that name it bears to
this day.

Mrs. Rebecca Steinberg, after
pursuing her turant husband from her
home in Russian Poland to New York.
then to Texas and finally to San
Francisco, came up with him in the
latter city a few days ago and will
endeavor to compel him to support

her child and her grim determination
to make the father of that child pro-
vide for it.

[NGLAND'S SUGAR DUTY A CABINET D|SIURBER.
DISSENSIONS IN THE BRITISH
GOVERNMENT.
Serious Trouble over the Budget-Plan
To Make South Africa Bear the Cost
of War.

LONDON, April 25.-The date of
LORD Sahsbury's return to LOndon from
the Riviera is still probIematical, and
the rumors of Cabinet trouble over the
budget are assuming greater consis-
tency in the Hobbies of Parliament
According to the Daily Mail, the franz
ing of the budget revealed consider
able dissension. Chamberlain the
Colonial Secretary, wanted the whole
cost of the war raised on the credit
of the South African colonies and had
schemes of his own for providing the
interest on the loan and the Increase
of normal expenditure.
To these schemes, however, with the
exception of the coal DUTY, Sir Michael
Hicks Beach turned a deaf ear, and on
beng pressed he offered to resign.
Chamberlain, according to the Daily
MAJ, favored the resignation, but
Lord Salisbury and Balfour strongly
opposed it.
Now it is said that although at first
Sir Michael Hicks Beach did not advo-
cate a coal tax, he now declines to
drop it. thinking his reputation would
suffer now that he is committed to it.
! He has, however, agreed to give care
4 full consideration to the alternative
proposal to substitute an ad valorem
DUTY on a basis of s pence or pence
on inferior coal, rising to IL pence on
the best Welsh coal. While this would
mollify the Northern colliery owners
1t would intensity the opposition from
Wales, and the belief prevails that the
upshot will be either the abandonment
of the tax altogether or the resigna-
| ton of the Ministry.
! Chamberlain is credited with urging
| the latter course, with the double OBJ
ject of getting rid of Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, whose plain speaking regarding
the deplorable financial consequences
of the war offends him, and of proving
! to the country, that there is no alter
, native government as the opposition
would, under the existing conditions,
decline the task of forming a Cabinet.
According to lobby gossip this expedi-
| ent would pull the Conservative party
| together and kill the opposition within
it's ranks to the necessary financial eX-
| pedientS.

TO BOYCOTT HAWAIIAN BOATS
Frisco Boarding Masters Claim Men
jump Vessels Here.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 24.-Men
who went to the islands to fill the
places of striking mates are not in the
best of humor and the coasting board
ing masters are vowing that they Will
not supply sailors to the vessels ply
ing between this port and HAWAII.
! The boarding masters find that the
sailors they trust leave their vessels at
Honolulu and they are left to whistle
for their money.
In the cases of the boarding masters
and clothiers the men leave here owing
them bills and never come back. In
the old days a sailor shipped for the
round voyage. He does the same thing
now, but if he demands mis- pay at Ho-
nolulu the law says he must get it. All
hands quit the Gerard G. Tobey at Ho-
nolulu, eight men left the Rodericl1
Dhu at Hilo, ten men quit the George
Curtis, four men the Irmgard, five men
the Mauna Ala at Honolulu and from
three to six men every vessel that went
from here to the islaE1s Every one
of these sailors owes the boarding
master and outftter a BILL
The Shipowners' Association and the
Seamen's Union have the matter under
discussion and the chances are that
some remedy will be devised. The
shipowners meet Friday and the sea-
men Saturday next.

WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE
ISLANDS.
Export Duty on Coal May open Some
Markets to American Coal Operators.
Secretary Cages Views.

NEW YORK, April 2O.-A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
England's new taxes, imposed to meet
the heavy charges growing out of the
Boer war may prove beneficial to Anne
rican exporters
1t is not believed that the import duty
to be imposed on sugar will affect the
trade between the United States and the
United Kingdom in any way. Experts
of the Treasury Department, however,
believe that the United States will pro-
fit to some degree by the imposition of
the export duty of one shilling a ton on
coal shipped out of the United King
dom.
The products Of American coal mines
have been gradually making their way
into new markets for several years past
and 1t is believed that in many places
the present margin of cost in favor of
British coal as against that from the
United States is less than one shilling
ton, and that the imposition of this
tax, with the consequent increase in the
cost of British coal as against that
from the United States is less than
one shilling ton, and that the inn
position of this tax, with the conse-
quent increase in the cost of the
British coal will lead consumers to
buy American coal. The largest in
crease is expected in those markets
winch ahe relatively nearer to the
United States than to Great Britain,
but some increase may be expected in
exports TO Continental Europe.
The imposition of an import tariff
on sugars, with a differential of two
shillings and two pence between re-
fined sugar and sugars testing rs de-
grees is looked upon here as a step
in the direction of protection, as
| 1t is believed that this differen-
tial is great enough to afford con-
siderable encouragement to the Brit
ish refners.
This may lead to a reduction in the
imports of refined sugar into the
| United Kingdom, but as refined sugar
is not an article of export from the
| United States, American trade will not
| be affected by this. The United King
| dom took from the United States last
| year 2O2, 366.S55 pounds of glucose
2,S14.6O5 gallons of molasses and Z, 279,
241 gallons of syrup. 1t is not believed
| that the trade in these articles will
be affected materially by the tax
Secretary of the Treasury Gage is
not disposed to believe that the new
| taxes will affect the American trade
with the United Kingdom to any ma
/ terial degree. He doubts whether the
export duty on coal is large enough tc
give American coal any great advan-
| tage in competing markets.
