We can all think of many reasons
why such man should continue
his life of useful service and of
noble example. Nevertheless God
is far wiser than we, for 0I heard
a voice from heaven saying with
write: BLESSED are the dead which
die in the Lord from henceforth,
yea, saith the Spirit, that they
may rest from their labors and
their works do follow them "
The text for this sad occasion
while describing the experience of
Enoch. is really the life of Andrew
Crawford and the subject natural
ly suggested is "The Heavenly
Life Notice a few characteris-
tics of this divine life. First, it
is a life of constant fellowship.
Our dear friend Crawford was not
dependent on Others for his deep
est life and happiness. With
natural endowments of high or
der, with an excellent education
and we'll stored mind, he had
many hidden resources and he
could sit for hours with his books,
and his own thoughts were an
ever flowing fountain of delight.
Still, no man enjoyed companion
ship more than he. Naturally
warm hearted and sympathetic he
lived with his teachers, joked with
his business friends, whether it
was in the literary circle or the
social gathering or the office of
business or the house of God, he
was always the same delightful
companion and interested helpful
friend. And yet, brethren, all
who knew him knew that these
were not his sweetest joys, neither
did they explain his hopeful, hap
py life. His most intimate friend
was God.
Like Enoch he ''walked with
God" talked to Him in prayer,
listened to Him when he read
from the Bible, saw Him, in the
works or creation and providence
and it was one of his inspiring
convictions that he had "fellow-
ship with the Father and with his
son, Jesus Christ" "
A second popularity of this
Heavenly life is, 1t was life of
helpful service. In Enoch's day
men were worldly, earthly, selfish,
because sinful. The "imagina-
tion of their hearts," we read,
were "evil continually" But
Enoch lived above this selfish life
by walking with God. So it was
with our brother who has Just
gone home. Active, thoughtful,
successful, he lived not so much
for himself as for others, and
many man in this city and else
where is speaking today of this
mans helpful deeds and great
generous heart of love. Little
children loved him, the poor found
in him a friend and no workman
was so weak and no old acquain-
tance so thoughtless that Andrew
Crawford did not seek to help him
and make him better and more
useful man. He recognized his
obligation to his teachers and pas
or and school mates, and no man

PROHIBITION IN THE SOUTH.

The recent prohibition elections IN
Texas, when many counties went
dry, has created renewed interest in
the subject of prohibition and dis
PEELED the theory of some observers
that the cause is dead. In addition
to this, the Texas situation has given
rise to some very interesting statis-
tics on prohibition in the South, one
of which, for instance, is that the
total number of saloons in the South
ern States is p, 200, while New York
State alone has "a, ZOO.
The following summary of the
prohibition situation in six Southern
States is taken from The New Voice,
a paper started lately in the cause:
Texas-One hundred and thirty
six counties have total prohibition;
81 counties have partial prohibition,
and 46 counties have unrestricted
sale of liquors.
Tennessee-Out of $500 cities and
towns in the State only s have unre-
stricted sale Of liquors. In only -
of the SO counties can whisky be sold
legally.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS counties
have total prohibition; 81 have par
tial prohibition, and Is have unre-
stricted sale of liquors.
Arkansas--Forty-four counties
have total prohibition, 2 counties
have partial prohibition, and % have
unrestricted sale.
Mississippi-Sixty-fve counties
out of 70 have prohibition, and out
of 200 Legislators all but a dozen, or
less, have signified their approval of
a referendum for State proi,ibit:un.
Georgia-One hundred and tn. ee
counties out of 1877 have prohibition.

that the cavalry would soon be out
fected arms, and would become a sec
ondary consideration in warfare, but
the South African war demonstrated
the fact that the day of the cavalry
is just begun.

ment. AS believer in the cavalry and
one of it's staunchest supporters, can
not see a. command like this without

Isaac Gravelle to-day as the man.
Gravelle was arrested Sunday in the

Speaking of the arrest, General Man

a few days after Gravelle's release from
prison. Everything indicates that he

against him which are equally strong,
but which we do not care to mention at
this time.

Washington, Oct. 20.-At the meet
ing of the cabinet to-day hearty fe-
licitations were exchanged between the
President and his advisers over the re-
suit of the deliberations of the Alas
kan Boundary Commission.
Secretary Hay presented to the
President and to his fellow cabinet
members the decision of the commits
sion, as stated in the official dis
patches to the State Department. The
decision itself indicates more clearly
than anything else could how complete
the American victory is.
So confident were the President and
the members of his cabinet in the just
ness of their contention regarding the
Alaskan boundary that they were per-
fectly willing to refer the matter to
any properly constituted commission
for final decision. The award made by
the tribunal which has just completed
its work is believed fully to justify
the confidence of the administration
in the correctness of the American
claims.
President Roosevelt and the men,
bers OF his cabinet regard that terri
tory as one of the greatest possibili-
ties and one which. in perhaps a few
years, will be very populous.

STEAMER STRUCK A REEF
AND LIVES WERE LOST.
A Disaster Occurred on the Coast
of Oregon.

A Disaster Occurred on the Coast
of Oregon.
Marshfield, Ore, Oct 2O.-The
steamer South Portland, which sailed
from Portland, Ore, last Sunday load
ed with wheat for San Francisco,
struck on Blanco reef yesterday even
ing at o'clock during a heavy fog.
The vessel carried a crew of twenty
two and fourteen passengers. OF these.
seventeen have reached shore.
Charles Huson, the first engineer,
died of exposure as they were taking
him off the life raft. Fourteen per-
sons are yet missing and are probably
lost.
The South Portland struck while 60
ing at speed of about seven knots.
Immediately she began to settle
astern, and in minute or two slid off
the reef and began to sink.
Capt. Mcintyre, seeing that there
was no hope of saving the ship,
speedily had the boats lowered. One
of the boats that got away from the
ships side, loaded with part of the
crew and some of the passengers, was
capsized as soon as it cleared the
ships side, and when last seen was
floating away in the fog without a liv-
ing soul aboard.
The CAPTAINS boat. with about
eighteen aboard. succeeded in clearing.
but was also capsized, and only seven
were able to get back into the boat.
The survivors suffered much from
exposure, and Capt. Mcintyre is con-
fined to his bed.
