INSPIRATION OF EXAMPLE.

T HE RELIGIOUS SIDE of human
L rescue work IS touched upon by
the Chicago Interior in tribute to the
men who lost their lives in the DAILY
West and in the Pennsylvania mine
disaster while trying to rescue their
comrades. II is a view which has not
been taken in any other comments on
the disaster and it cannot fail to inn
press all readers with it's truth. Says
the Interior:
In Two min horrors that have recently
occurred--onc I'm Pennsylvania and the
other iu Utah-the death lists were ma
gerially Increased by the Ioss of the lives
0f certain rsen who entered the mines
after the explosions M the loflorn nope
radeS alive In each case the exploring
parties went in fully understanding inc
mortal risks they took and as well the
'Xtreme imprObability that they would
he able to do any good. Yet, because
there was a chance to sIIccor someone be-
fore life was extinct. they ventured down
he throat of death. and out of each party
three or four OF the leaders persisted. We
30 not know that any of these sublimeiy
courageous men were Jesus Christ men
we trust they wcre-but we do feel con-
done this unselfish thing If Jesus Christ
had not gone 10 a cross on Calvary two
mtlenniums ago and shower hanklilo
how to die for mankind. And by the IN
rreasmg frequency of such instances OF
life sacrifice we sofemnly rejoice 10 see
testimony that the life and example OF
the dyins Savior daily become more
ample power in the world. even among
many who still acknowledge him not nor
avowedly seek to follow him.
Mark Twain said not long ago that
Christ did not begin to preach until
after he died on Calvary. He has been
preaching ever since, the gospel of dy-
ing that others may live. The Herald
does not know whether the DAILY West
heroes We're protesting Christians or
not: the fact that they were or were
not Christians. in the common ac-
ceptation of the term, does not make
any difference. but. as the Interior
says. they. must have been inspired by
the example of GoIgotha's tragedy.
