Guests Pass With Glaciers.

Hotel keepers in the Alps have new
trouble and are complaining of the loss
of patrons, who are moving away from
the glaciers. Yes, the attractive gla-
ciers are actually passing from the
landscape, and as they recede the no.
tells along their borders find that their
registers are shortening.
These glaciers are not running away
by any means, but they are deteriorat-
ing slowly with a persistency that
means their final humiliation. Hotels
that a few years ago stood very near
to a great river Of slowly moving ice
now find themselves a considerable dis
lance away, and the attractiveness of
the site is lessened.
The famous glaciers Of the Rhone
have shrunk 5000 feet in the last twen-
ty years, or about 10 feet year. A
number of the we'll known glaciers ap-
proximate this diminution, and the sci
entifc fact is established that these re-
minders of the great glacial period are
surely disappearing.

LESSON THOUGHTS.
The nation is prosperous whose God is
the Lord, but only if it recognizes its
God and serves him Loyalty.
The prosperity of every nation is in
the hands of its individual citizens, so
far as the human element can secure
safety. For its constitution, or its laws,
or its wealth, or its territory does not
make the nation; but the individual citi-
zens who support the constitution and
administer the laws and employ the
wealth and occupy the territory. Take
care of the citizenship and the nation
will take care of ITSELF
SELECTIONS.
Give us good men! time like this demands
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and
ready hands.
The true patriot loves his country, but
he loves still more the Kingdom of God.
He cares too much for his country to
uphold her in any wrong. He does not
reserve his patriotism until he has a
chance to die for his country; he lives
for her.
Macauly says of ancient patriotism:
Then none was for a party;
Then all were for the state;
Then the great men help'd the poor,
And the poor men lov'd the great;
Then lands were fairly portioned;
Then spoils were fairly sold;
The Romans were like brothers
In the brave days of old.
BLESSED is the nation whose God is
the Lord :" not only because God is pow
erlul and cares lovingly for his people, but
because patriotism that means loyalty
to God means also loyal subsection to
human government, as directed in Gods
own word.
He only serves his country who
Most truly serves the Lord;
He to his country is foe,
Who SCOTS the sacred word.
The patriot true will keep the law,
He's loyal in his heart
In all his conduct not flaw
Doth into being start.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
Ny country, tits of thee.
Stand up! stand up for Jesus.
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Encamped along the hills of light.
True-h earted, whole-hearted.
Am soldier of the cross?

/ Congressman Cochran, of Mis-
souri,, has introduced into the house
the following resolution:
Resolved, BY the senate and the
house that the Hon. Paul Kruger,
president of the South African Re-
public. Is hereby invited to visit
the United States as the guest OF
the country at such time as may
suit his convenience. For the de.
fragment of the expenses incurred
In his entertainment while In this
country the sum of $4,000 or so
much thereof as may be necessary
Is hereby appropriated out of any
money In the treasury not other
wise appropriated.
Will congress adopt the resolu'
ton and extend the invitation? It
Is to be hoped that Congressman
Cochran and his Democratic asso-
ciates will compel action upon the
resolution. The Republicans are
willing to spend money to enter
tain the brother of an emperor;
they are willing to spend money to
send special ENJOYS to attend the
browning of a king-will they re-
fuse an invitation to the president
of a republic?
The committe may try to ignore
Mr.. Cochran's resolution. but the
Democrats can join In a petition to
the committee on rules to set a time
for Its report and consideration. If
the Republicans refuse to join In
the petition they will go on record;
If the committee on rules refuses to
consider the petition, majority of
the house can compel Its consider
alton. If the resolution Is passed
and Kruger comes Europe will find
out where the sympathies of the
American people are; If, on the
other hand, the resolution Is re-
jected by the Republicans, the
American people will inquire why
the Republican party is so quick to
show courtesy to a king, but so
indifferent to conspicuous repre-
sentative of self.government.-Com-
moner.

$1,000 barrels by one oil company
within the next six months to the
State institutions. The contract
was awarded at 43 and a. cents a

assumed that for distances from 25o
to 800 miles from Beaumont, and In
Texas, fuel oil may be delivered for
prices varying from 43 to M
cents per barrel. The lowest price
at which Beaumont oil has been Of

The Improvement of the naviga-
ton of the Ohio river from Pitts
burg to Cairo was under considera-
tion by the House river and harbor
committee on Thursday, and In the
way of a scare 1t was declared that
"the total expenditures for improv-
Ing the navigation of the Ohio river
would reach the enormous total of
100000, 900. But If the Ohio was
made navigable at all seasons for
this sum would 1t be extravagant,
considering the way we are ex-
pending money for other purposes,
especially In the Philippines, that
can be of no possible advantage to
the American people. To conquer
and subjugate the Philippines has
already cost us $3.50, 200, 900, and
what benefit have we gained?
Where has been the material ad-
vantage to Our people, In the way
of trade and commerce? One.sixth
of this sum would make the Ohio
navigable at all times, and the
benefit of this to the mil.
lions of people In the Ohio
and Mississippi valleys would be In
calculable. 1t would be National
work, promoting the progress and
industry of all the people of the
country. But with the hundreds
of millions we are spending In an
attempt to subjugate the Malay Is,
lands, ten thousands miles away ON
the other side of the globe, and the
hundreds of millions we propose to
spend on the Isthmian canal, and
the great sums necessary to main
