Paul's Voyage and Shipwreck
(Acts 81: 33-44.)

the Lord in their trouble, and h,
bringeth them out of their distress
es. Psalms 10Y: 28.)
After Paul had made his address.
before King Agrippa, the opinion
expressed by the latter was that
"this man might have been set a
liberty if he had not appealed unto
Caesar" Since the appeal had beer
made, however, it could not now be
withdrawn.
From Caesarea to Fairhavens.-
The appeal having been made to
Caesar, it was necessary that Paul
should be carried to Rome, there to
have his case heard before the i'm
perial court. He was therefore
placed On board a ship of Adramyt-
tium, that he might begin the jour
ney to Rome. This ship was prob
ably on it's return voyage from
Caesarea.\
With Paul went Luke and Arts
tarchus, who were old and tried
friends. Paul himself, with a num-
Der of other prisoners, was placed in
care of a centurion named julius,
who had under his command a de-
tachment of the Augustan band.
At Myra, a seaport of Lycia, Paul
and his party were transferred from
the ship in which they had left Gaze
sarea to another and much larger
vessel. This latter craft was a ship
of Alexandria, and was now bound
for Rome with a cargo of wheat.
After they had entered the new
ship, the voyage was necessarily
slow, for the prevailing winds at
this season were from the west, and
therefore against their course, which
was southwesterly. At last they
reached Fairhavens, a small bay on
the south of Crete.
A Warning Unheeded.-At this
point in their voyage Paul lifted
up a note of warming. With a di-
vinely given prescience, he saw that
disaster awaited the ship should the
attempt be made to go further until
the springtime should have come.
But, in spite of this warming, it was
decided to push on and endeavor
to make the more commodious port
of Phenice.
Near a Watery Grave.-The &C
count which is given in the Acts of
the storm which befell the ship in
which Paul and his fellow-travelers
we're journeying is wonderfully Wv
id, and every detail recorded has
been verified by the experience of
other travellers, who have carefully
observed all the phenomena connect
ed with storms in that vicinity. How
near to death the members of that
ships company felt themselves to
be is told in the words of the author
of the Books of Acts, who writes:
"And when neither sun mol starsin
many days appeared, and no small
tempest lay on us, all hope that we
should be saved was then taken
away"

with Prof. kaufman Of the North Da-

mills OF this Kusssll Milling Co. as

very promising and growers Of this
grain, who we're q little discouraged at
the opening OF the season, have reason

ATTORNEY GENERAL PHILo HALL,
in an interview in the Sioux Falls
Press, takes the position that insurance
companies not Incorporated in this
state are doing business here by snf.
ferance. The anti-compact law there
fore In no way impairs any contract
on the part OF the state with the foreign
insurance company. This is in strong
antagonism to the recent decision OF
Judge MCPHERSON in the case OF the
Iowa anti.compact law. We trust
Attorney General Hall may win out on
his contention, but have little hope
that he can do so.

The Pierre papers are charging that
Harry Hunter of the Milwaukee road
Is threatening to have some OF the
newspapers Of the state excluded from
second class, rates If they support
Pierre to the exclusion of Mitchell.
We do not believe Mr.. Hunter has
ever made any such foolish threat.
He does not run the post-office depart
ment and even If he did he could not
exclude . newspaper from postal privi-
leges because he does not like It's poll
cy. Any editor who is not better
posted on the post Office rules and
regulations than to borrow trouble on
that score. would nave so little char
acter and influence that his loss would
mol be worth regretting.
