serious question as to value OF

was no conflict between capital and labor
until labor was educated.
There seems to be something within us
which demands that our knowledge be IN
some way applied, and as an able writer
expresses it, that the logic of thought
shall find fruition In the logic Of events.
There rs at present a state OF angry
unrest-strilxes are frequent, and every
large strike teaches the strikers some
thing which makes the next large strike
more serious and portentious. Fortunate

chase OF many mules for that purpose
in this country. There was a lively de-
mand for mules during the Spanish-Amer-
lean war. and the British caught on to
the racket"
But 1 started out TO urge our readers
to raise more mules. They stand hot
weather in the hot countries or torid sec
tons. They are not as easily affected by
various equine diseases as the horse.
They are tough and long lived and Will
stand rough treatment where horse will
die out Of IL.

II could farm as my heart inclines, To
raise at least two mule colts every year
and train the two TO eat and work to-

fond OF their mates and IL you stable
mule with horse the attachment OF the
mule IS surprisingly strong.
Just after the war we drove mule TO
the buggy every day to school. II we
had company to ride with us then the
gray colt was saddled and trotted along
in front of the buggy. Mike, the mule,
would show great delight over the colts

DANCER TO Mixers.

A publication, issued some time ago.
from the Bureau OF Animal Industry in
Washington, gives some instances of dan
ger encountered to mixers. One, a girl
u years old, who had a sore on her finger
and the COW she MIXED had bovine tuber-
colosis, as discovered later. Assesses
came over her hands and about the knuc-
kles. After some months her eyes became
involved. and assesses came on her neck,
from which she died later.
A butcher who lived in Chicago took the
same kind OF disease from cleaning the
inward parts OF a COW that was diseased.
He worried along with assesses on his
hands and arms, until he went into pull
monary consumption.
These things would indicate great sus-
ceptibility OF the human race TO the in
lection Of bovine bacilli. and the infection
is generally fatal to those whose condition
is favorable TO the progress Of disease.

A MOUNTAINOUS LIFE AND LOVE.

confess that I enjoyed being rushed. But
now that you tell me that you are build
ing this house, with your own hands, for
you and me, and have revealed your fu-
ture to me in such a serious manner, /
must tell you that 1 can never occupy 1t

ry, that I have caused you pain"
His face by the time she had finished
was so changed that the death pallor
seemed to be present He is quoted as say
ing:
''Please don't so deceive another-lets
drive back to your hotel"
Both sentences were unfinished. as was
the house The young lady said after
wards that while these sentences appear
complete that they were broken and that
his face and manner indicated that he
had much more to say. but the untold
volumes he wanted to utter were read in
every line of his face, and to kill his love
was worse than death, for the moment, to
her.
The drive was a silent and short one.
During the time herein described a manly
life was changed, wrecked. ruined. Ambi-
ton was gone. hope had fed and aspira-
ton had died. future had been blasted.
He was loyal to his love and has never
visited another girl or raised hammer to
finish his house
1t stands on beautiful spot a skeleton,
blackened by the rains of many years. 1t
is known as a house with a history. 1t
has provoked many pathetic expressions
from gay summer visitors who go and
come from Gainesville on driving excurs-
ions to beautiful Nacoochee valley.
The young lady has long since married;
but the man is yet living melancholy
life.
The story of this unfinished house. and
the object lesson 1T presents. brings out
the positive side of a mountaineer's life
and the force of the emotions that control
him, together with an inbred virtue that
knows no deception, and contrasts 1t with
the light. frivolous life of those who live
in a different social atmosphere.

a BusheI Sack.
PhIladelphia T1mes.

The once of John w. Gates was this
scene recently of a practical joke,
played by Charley" Gates. son Of the
western operator, in which money made
by the firm for one Of its clients had to be
delivered in a bushel sack.
This client called up the firm just be-
fore noon and asked Mr.. Gates to sell him
200 shares Of something short, as he
needed some ready money.
'FYou don't want to be on the short sloe
OF this market said Mr.. Gates, but
win buy something for you and make you
two points in few minutes"
The client gave permission, and Mr..
Gates Immediately bought 200 shares OF
Louisville and Nashville. In less than
an hour the stock had been sold at two
points profit.
Mr. Gates called up his client.
''Well, I've got your money for you
Just took two points profit on 200 shares
How do you want your money-in cash or
by check?'
The client, who thought Mr.. Gates was
Joking, replied:
send II over in pennies"
Mr. Gates at once sent two strong por-
ters to the sub-treasury and got 40.OOO new
pennies, which they delivered to his client
to his immense amazement.

 A precious one from us has gone,
 A voice we loved is stilled; A place is vacant in our home
 Which never can be filled.

 Why did you break one happy home
 And fill our hearts with woe?

The statistical tables of the several denomina tions fail to record the fact that one reason why the pastoral of flee is becoming more difficult to fill is that so many ministers are entering other vacations. Ten per cent. of the ordained clergymen in. one denomina- tion are engaged in work other than the pastorate, while still others are living without any reported active service. Not only are many leaving the ministry for some other branch of service in the kingdom, but it is we'll known that all branches of business have attracted others.-C Church Econo- mist.

CoLUMBIA's PLIGHT.
Attitude of the United States Causes
 @' Irritation.

5- f{ ; & ! ' " |. [
 KINGSTON, Jalna4ca, oct. 11.-The following information concerning af- fairs in Colombia has been received from reliable authority at Colon:
 The Colombian civil revolution with tn the past few weeks has assumed certain new phases, the most note worthy of which are the resumption of hostilities in the interior of the repub- lie and the nature of the attitude of the United States government with ref erence to the interpretation of the treaty between New Granada and the United States of 1S46
 With regard to hostilities in the in- terior General Uribe- Uribe has again appeared in the field and is now said to hold the important strategic point of oTenerffe on the Magda1ena river, where he has mounted cannon. The number of General Uribe- Uribes fol lowers is not known.
 The river at Tenerife is narrow, and transit on it is completely blocked and will remain so as long as the revOlu- tionists hold their position.
 It will be difficult, however, for them
 
 provisioned with all the necessaries of war, as that part of the country cannot support an army. If General Uribe- Uribe succeeds in holding Tenerife, there can be no communication be- tween the isthmus and the Atlantic coast and Bogota.
 Tn the matter of the attitude of the United States on the isthmus, the ar rival at Colon of Commander Mclean and his subsequent declaration of his intention to fulfill the obligations of the treaty by landing United States ma rines and blueiackets to maintain free transit over the railroad caused intense irritation in all Colombian circles, where it is not admitted that the pres- ent situation warrants such action.
 This feeling of irritation was further intensified when a thousand govern ment troops entering Colon from Pan- anna were forced to lay aside their arms temporarily and travel under the escort of American marines and blue jackets. Since this occurrence and presumably after having communicat- ed with the revolutionary general Her rera Admiral Casey of the United States battleship Wisconsin has adopt ed position of the strictest neutrality.
 The American admiral has notified the government that no military en- ployee whatever, regardless of rank or arms or ammunition, will be allowed to travel CT be conveyed by rail across the isthmus without the special per- mission of the American commanding officer.
 It is not easy to describe the extent of the Colombian i'll feeling resulting from these occurrences or the scope of the privileges the Colombians have lost.
 There are clear indications that the Colombian government is approaching a serious crisis with regard to it's abil- ity to continue the war.
 Nothing more forciPly Illustrates the extreme financial stress of Colombia, which entails extreme hardship upon all classes and untold and abject mis- cry on the poor, than the evidences of the utter destitution and pitiable con dition of the government troops who are from time to time sent out from the interior. Many of these soldiers are boys, their ages ranging from seven and eight years up.
