 touching matters at the city hall or po- lice headquarters. The nine Bible ser mons will be the best written, most learned and most upbuilding possible
 The sermons on secular affairs will be the least wise and most unjust as well as the most inopportune and cantank- erous possible. We, his congregation, stand the bad because of the good. And we get, net, the best pulpit pabu- lum in New York. When proclaiming the gospel, the doctor is unapproacha- be. When smashing away at secular things he is intolerable.

PIONEERING IN THE NORTH
 WEST

An Iowa traveller just back from the new northwest frontier tells of some of these hardships. T saw colony of Galicians in Saskatchewan" he said, and they gave me the most extraordi-
 nary exhibition of human patience and fortitude I ever beheld. I saw from a
 dozen to fifteen women hitched two and
 two on an eighteen-inch breaking
 blow, and thy marched right ahead
 through the tough ground with that
 blow, tearing up five acres a day on an average. There was a man holding the blow. The work these people did was as effective as could have been done by horses or oxen. The women seem to take their hard labor as matter of course. They are very cheerful over it, laughing and joking as they snake that great steel blade through the turf. am told that scores of these girls who draw blows all day have vitality enough left to dance through the great CT part of the night. They are broad of shoulder, heavy hipped and muscled like wrestlers, They may not be beau- tifu1 to look at but they are full of the determination that makes new coun- try open out" These will disappear in a few years, and another generation will know of these hardships only by hearsay or as of tradition. They are only an incident of pioneering. It is difficult to realize that such hardships and privatiuns are necessary in this day of the world and on this continent; but it will not be denied that this sort of pluck and endurance is a good indca- tion that upon this new and final from tier line there will be built up O rugged society that will prove an important addition to the social elements of the western hemisphere.-Des Moines Qa) Leader.

LINCOLN's DISPATCHES.
Why Many of Them Were Dated From
 the War Department.

l Why Many of Them Were Dated From ! the War Department,
 Surprise is often expressed by very
 intelligent people that so large a pro-
 portion of President Lincolns S most inn | portant telegrams and some of his let
 ters are dated from the war department
 instead of the executive mansion, and
 none of them from the navy, treasury
 or other administrative bureaus. This | is generally deemed very singular
 fact, and from it writers have plausi-
 ply drawn the conclusion that Lincoln | personally liked the secretary of war
 better than any of the other cabinet of l f1cers, While this indeed appears to 1 have been true, it does not necessarily
 so follow. He certainly held MT. Sew
 ard in high regard yet he seldom went
 to the state department.
 | In the circumstances it was not at all singular. The explanation is easy War was the business of that time, and Lineoln's eyes were always bent to the | army especially when great military events were impending, He habitually haunted the adjacent war department and army headquarters, where abode General Halleck, his military adviser, for news and views. Head and heart were strenuously concentrated on the fight, wherever it might be. His fertile brain saw, too, the critical points in the game oftentimes far more clearly than some of his so called ablest generals" He not only wished to know what was going on in the field, but performed his own part noby. Tn the heat of action or at crucial moments his orders, sug- gestions and inquiries were fired off spontaneously from wherever he might be at the moment, and at such periods he was generally lover at the war de- partment" with Mir Stanton. That is the chief reason why so many of his dispatches are dated at that depart ment and not because he perhaps held Stanton in higher esteem than the sec retary of the navy or state or treasury, --Lippincott's Magazine.

THE BULLET FROM AFAR.
How Modern War Methods Try the Sol

How Modern War Methods Try the Sol
 diers' Nerves.
 To-day man may die as soon as the
 enemy's guns, hidden away in the dis.
 tant, cloud topped mountains sever | miles away, begin to talk. And over l that seven miles he must walk with l caution, with a wide interval between him and his pals on either hand He ] must lie down at every short halt and | scratch the ground hurriedly with his | little spade at every long one, for the | great shells are sailing toward him. l and he sees by his officers eye and | hears by his commands that 1t is con- sldered that he may perish at any mo- ment and that precautions are necessa- 1 ry to preserve him. He sees, moreover, how futile those precautions must be if one of those monsters bowling over- head should land as near to him as the last one did to that blasted tree, for in stance, with it's scorched, dangling limbs and the huge charred flssure-in it's stout trunk, or as the one before did to the team of mules in the ambulance wagon now q screaming, struggling tumble of harness and bloody flesh.
 All this is dispiriting and appears un- necessary. The country on all sides is as peaceful as his native dale, not 8 sign of an enemy Even the great blue hill ahead, on which he is told the ene- my's long guns are posted, looks as quiet as the mountain on a Christmas card. Yet for two miles he walks through death, thinking only of it be- cause there is nothing else to think of, and then as twilight falls bivouacs in extended line, sees his friends run for their tea between the fall of the shells, notices one of them time his run back badly and meet projectile in full ca reer, to part from 1t an awful and dis gusting offense, and then lies down in the darkness with shaking nerves and the thought that five worse miles still intervene between him and the guns he knows he is intended to take.
 Next morning he is awakened by a shell, is marched with infinite caution for tive more miles, shelled the whole way, is shelled even in his bivouac by the light of the moon and as he watches the projecties bursting like water spouts of fire along his hillside is glad when he is told that tomorrow will be the battle. after which if he wins and if he lives he may be able to walk and sleep in peace for space.-''A Line man" in the New York World.

THIS IS A USEFUL SOCIETY.

| Writing in the June Century of the l organizations to create or preserve
 beauty in public places, Sylvester Bax- | ter thus speaks of the service of the
 American Science and Historic Preser-
 vation society:
 ] Its record of work accomplished in- 1 cudes the purchase by New York state, at it's instance, of thirty-three acres of | the battlefield of Stony Point on the Hudson committed to the custody of | the society with an appropriation for | it's improvement; the purchase by the state of a tract of about thirty five acres at the head of Lake George, the | scene of notable events in the French and Indian and Revolutionary wars,
 and the principal scene for Cooper's novel, "The Last of the Mohicans;" causing the creation of the interstat
 park commission for the preservation fo
 the Palisades, with an appropriation of
 four hundred thousand dollars from the
 state of New Jersey to realize that pur-
 pose, inducing the establishment sur
 roundings of the ancient church in Sa-
 lem, N. Y; and securing the purchase
 by the city of New York of the fine old colonial mansion where Washington lived in 1776. The society has also been active in the steps for preserving such
 historic monuments in New York city as Traunces' Tavern, the home of AL exander Hamilton and the cottage of Edgar Allan Poe, the Phillipse Manor hall in Yonkers, the mansion of Sir William Johnson in Johnstown and the ruins of the forts at Grown Point and Ticonderaga.

A "REMINISCENCES OF BEEcHER

A REMlNISCENCE OE BEEC'EtER. John Bradshaw, an aid resident of Indianapolis, in an interview gives some entertaining "reminiscences of Henry Ward Beecher, ''I know him in- timately when I was youth and he q young man. said MT. Bradshaw. At that time we lived four miles north of the city on the Michigan road. One night Beecher was at our house for supper and during the course of the meal asked my fathers permission to go to a horse race the next day, which was at a track somewhere around the locality now known as North Indianap- olis MT. Beecher took the reply from my father by saying I shouldn't be al lowed to go, as I was in town and met MT. Beecher. He told me that he had just bought a horse and was going to our house in the evening, and if I would meet him we would drive out to- gether It was a big bay horse and by a peculiar spot on his breast 1 knew him to be an old running horse that had been on the course. As we were on the smooth, level road and before we passed the 1lrSL lnlIe stone NIT. beeCnef ndnueu me his watch and let the horse out to speed We fairly flew. I remember we made that mile in less than three min utes.
 That night at the supper table I called MT Beecher's attention to the fact that he wouldn't allow me to go to the races yet he speeded his own horse on the way out. He turned to me with a roguish eye and said: The Lord made that horse to run and let him. "--Indianapolis Journal.

BEvERIDGE's PREsENTIMENTs.

BEVERIDGE'S PRESENTIMENTS.
 Senator Beveridge does not hesitate to tell his friends how destiny has marked him as her own. He is almost a fatal ist in his belief that things are bound to come in the direction in which he sees them. When he was a boy on a farm in Highland county, O., where he was born, he realized that he was to become a lawyer and that his talent would be recognized, although there was then apparent no way open by which he could get an education. He says that in the same manner when in school and studvins law he felt entirely confident that he would become a Uni ted States senator. He had this assur- ance before him in all the dark stages and discouraging hours of his early professional career. To- day he tells his friends that he feels certain that he is to become president of the United States. In just what year this will ma terialize has not been made wholly clear, but he says that he thinks now it is in 1908, just after Roosevelt com- pletes his second term. But that he is to be president he never for a moment questions Washington Letter to the Boston Transcript,
