4 GGod Sermon.

Rev. W. \. Massaheau preached
an excellent Sermon in the First
Methodist church Sunday from tie
,NNt, Marrow is the way and s;raigh,
j. the S';e that leads TO eternal He.
He brought out his points in very
turcctul manner, which held the c)n.
grsga;ion to the closest a,tention
from beginning to close. The prcachcy
Impressed the fact upon his hearers
that the path of the righteous was
not strewn with roses and that we
were not to De carried 20 the skies on
tipwcry beds Of ease. But that a
Christian was likened unto a soldier
VITO had to constantly fight in the
cause OF he master. And that it was
absolutely necessary t. strive" to
enter in AT tne straight gate. There
is vast difference in seeking to
enter in and "slliving' to enter in.
y simple seeking or a desire to enter
is not sufficient, but there must be al
earnest effort, we must "strivc" if
wo would enter in. The sermon was
a good one and furnished food for the
oarnest, thoughtful consideration Of
his hearers.

The Great Cresceus.

Cresceus, whose great achievement,
Friday, in lowering the worlds trottlng
record to 1924, was sired by Robert
McGregor, he by Major EdsalI, the son
of old Hambletonian. Robert, McGreg-
ors' dam was Nancy Whitman, full
sister of Lady Whitman once own
ed by j. @. Rowland, of Middle
town. Major Edsall and Nancy Whit
man were both owned by Samuel Whit
man, who lived in CoEklingtown a short
distance east Of Goshen. Mr.. Whit
man was an eccentric individual who
would seldom consider proposition for
the purchase of any of his horses. He
ally sold Major Edsall to r. l..
Lee, of Topeka, Kan. When Mr.. Lee
came east to buy his famous Orange
County Stallion his friend James G..
Rowland told him to hold $50 in his
hand and as soon rs an agreement was
reached to hand it at once to Whitman.
After some haggling Mr.. Whitman
agreed to accept $500 and no sooner had
he done so than Mr.. Lee slipped the
money into his hand and closed the bar
gain. He tried to back out but could
not do so, and Major Edsall was re-
moved TO Mr.. Howland's stable in Ches-
ter and kept there until he was shipped
to Topeka.

Something about Diam onds.

Mr.. Kunz the diamond expert is at
the Exposition daily. In recent con-
versation he said:
"A diamond is pure crystalized car
bon. 1t is the most highly retroactive
and the hardest of gems, and it is the
only gem that is combustible. Cosmo l.
of Tuscany, in 1891, ignited diamond
with burning glass and later it was
found that, when burned in crucible,
the gem converts iron into steel. The
diamond generally occurs as am octohe-
dron and surpasses all other gems in the
property of dividing light into colort d
rays, causing that peculiar flash of pris--
matte hines called its fire Diamonds
are rated by the karat. The term karat
is derived from the name OF certain
small legumIn us seeds which, when
dried, are quite constant in weight
They are used in India for weighing
genus, The value of karat is set at
2O5 of gramme and is subdivided
from halves 10 sixty fourths. A quarter
karat is called grain and pearls are
always sold by the grain"
