letter last week from E. B. CrandalI.

hold informal reunions occasionally

Mr.. Henderson. The animal is one Of
several used in drawing the delivery

had been bathing the knee of the
mule, which had been lame for sever
al days, when suddenly, without
warning, the beast let fly one Of his
hoofs. Tt struck Nj. Henderson's

mule was not yet satisfied and he
commenced to. do a song and dance
act with Henderson as the sole and
unwilling SPECTATOR. Hau the latter
not been in such close proximity to
the prancing quadruped, he might
have enjoyed the performance, but as
it was, he felt decidedly uncomfort-

THIS is the wonderful salvation
i which God offers to you and to me,
and as He offers it and in patience waits
it's acceptance, the servant of God, in
our text, exclaims: How shall we es-
cape if we neglect so great salvation"
There are an infinite number of rea-
sons why people reject Gods offer of
salvation. We have not space or time
to enumerate them. You know what
it is that is keeping you from accept

our text suggests perhaps the reason
why most people are not saved. Just
simple neglect. But even those who
neglect $50 great salvation" are to be

sons reject Gods offer Ah how
many, many precious souls. who know
of Gods offer of salvation, who be-
lieve that Jesus is the Son of God and
the Saviour of the world, are every day

at Galveston and the newspapers were
filled with the blood-curdling details of
Deaths relentless harvest, it was a re-
lief and joy to read of some incident
of heroic rescue, of some one who at the
risk of life and limb had snatched a
precious life from the very jaws of
death. These were the bright touches
in that awful black picture of death.
The world is ever eager to hear of such
incidents. When the explosion of gun
powder in the turret of the battleship
Missouri snuffed out over a score of the
lives of our brave seamen, we were
thrilled with the story of the heroic
action of the gunner's mate who sprang
through the open door of the powder
magazine and closed the iron door just
as the flames leaped against it. Into
the face of death he rushed that he
might save the ship and it's 600 precious
lives. He knew that the apartment
would be Immediately flooded and that
he would probably be drowned like a
rat in trap, but it did not make him
falter. He was saving the lives of his
comrades and his superiors And more
dead than alive, with the water up to
his neck, he was finally rescued from
his watery tomb. Such stories are the
sparkling diamond settings in the ebony
background of disaster and death. 1t
warns the blood and quickens the pulse
to hear and read of such incidents. And
If the story of human rescue from i'm
pending physical death thrills and in
terests so, how much more should the
story of the Divine rescue from impend-
ing soul death fasciEate and quicken the
scarf of mantle story of so great
salvation"

The attacking force was not a reg
ular torpedo boat, but was only a
small naptha launch in command of a
young naval officer, who had with him
three jackies. The launch mounted a
small machine gun and carried three
torpedoes.
/ When darkness fell, the launch crept
out of Port Arthur, hugging the shore,
with no lights aboard and no glow
from the engines to betray her pres
ence. 1t was late when she gained the
outer line of the Japanese squadron.
Slipping through the torpedo boat
pickets, and selecting the nearest war
ship. a big armored cruiser, she stole
toward her and succeeded in exploding
against her side a single torpedo. A
deafening roar followed the explosion,
which echoed far ashore. Immediate
ly flames enyeloped the cruiser, which
evidently was badly crippled.
The crew of the cruiser was seen to
be fighting the fire, which they at last
succeeded in extinguishing. A sister
ship took the damaged vessel in tow
and disappeared to the southwest.
The launch escaped the hot fire di-
rected against her by the Japanese
ships, but being unable to return TO
Port Arthur or to get into Dalny, she
was beached not far from Dalny.
Only a few of the higher officers
were aware of the plan. the success OF
which depended upon secrecy. The
achievement raised the spirits of the
Russians afioat and ashore, and the
young naval officer who was the hero
of the exploit was feted and recon-
mended for the cross of st. George.
The Russians, on May II, appre-
bending that the presence of a Japan
ese squadron meant an attempt to cap
ture Dalny, blew up the piers and out
etly evacuated the place.
Two thousand Japanese have reoc-
cupied the road to Sanchilipu, again
cutting off Port Arthur. A strong
force is advancing against Polandien.
