DevclOpment Of Charncter.

We are LETT in this world. not so much
for what we may do here, for ;he things
we may make, as that we ourselves may
grow into the beauty of Gods thought for
US. In the midst Of all our occupations
and struggles, all our doing OF tasks. all
our longings and desires, all our expe-
riences OF every kind, there is work
going on in us which is quite as important
as anything we are dong with our mind
or with our hands.
In the school the boy has his tasks and
lessons. According as he is dlligent or in
dolent is his progress in his studies. In
ten years, if he is faithful, he masters many
things and stands high in his c,ass Or, if
he is indifferent and careless, he gets only
smAttering of knowledge, with so many
links missing that his education is of little
practical use to him. But meanwhile there
has been going on in HIM another educa-
tion--a growth or development of charac-
ter. The mind grows by exercise, just as
the body does.
Then there is also subjective moral i'm
preston, produced by the way the task is
performed. If one is faithful and CON
scientious, truly doing his best, the en-
dcavor leaves a mark of beauty in the life.
But il one is unfaithful ndolent. false to
ones self there is left wound, a trace of
marring and blemish, a weakening OF the
life-C, p Miller

nad set Tn towards that particular table, which made it necessary for Darrel to request, in his politest tones, that those between the table and the door should draw aside in order that he might watch for the entrance of "a man he was waiting for.'' The request was compiled with. Be- hind his chair Darrel could hear the sharp. tense breathing of the boy.
 sturg1s asked how much the diamond stud was worth and, when informed. borrowed $5OU rom HawkD1II Hen derson5 $2O0 to meet Darrel's bet and $500 to raise" him. Darrel took Il magnificent watch from his vest pock- ct, the gold case studded with gems.
 1 am stranger here" said he, quietly, "and this is as far as can go. What have you?''
 Sturgis exultantly spread out his four queens. Darrel laid down four kings and an ace.
 Take your money" said he, turning to the boy.
 A growl of rage came from Sturgis Catching up his opponents discard he turned the pasteboards over
 Tricked!" he shouted, springing erect. ''He had three aces and dis carded two! Hawkbill, demand the stakes"
 Henderson, red-faced, bull-necked and corpulent, swaggered closer
 This place is on the square" he said wheezingly to Darrel, .'and if you've juggIed the cards the stakes go to Sturgis.'
 Leaning forward with quick move ment, Darrel swept his hand under the edge of the table in front of Sur gis. Sturgis tried to stop the hand, but was not quick enough
 The hand reappeared with a small, nickel-plated contrivance known as table hold out" A murmur passed through the crowd.
 "Sturgis has been using that all evening"" remarked Darrel, coolly. He cheated that boy out of his money and--''
 With an imprecation, Sturgis hurled himself towards Darrell gleaming object in his mind Eawkbill threw himself in the way and ordered Sturgis to keep back
 It was evident that the baf1ed gam bier had friends who would rally to his side and Darrel swept the stakes into his hat, clapped the hat on his head and caught the boy by the arm and hurried him out
 At the hotel the young mans money was returned to him. Tears stood in his eyes as he thanked Darrel and the latter, grufly bidding him remember his promise, went out into the dark street intent on returning to Hawk bills and waiting for Murgatroyd.

Friars in the Philippines.

Late advices from the Philippines state that the church question is prac- tically settled. The friar lands ques- ton, from having been a paramount issue, has become dead one and the frtars themselves back number There are only about 300 of them left in the islands, and they are not in a position to give any trouble. The pur- chase of their lands by the govern ment rounds out an epoch and re- deems the chief promise of the United States to the natives. The three Amer ican bishops now there are reorgan- izing the Catholic church on American: lines and cooperating heartily with the civil authorities in promoting the education of the natives. Altogether, a great work has been done, and the foundation laid for still greater prog ress.--Indianapolis Journal

The Pig Got Well.

 One day a young boy came running breathlessly toward him. Say. teach er," he gasped.s my pa wants to know if you like pork"
 Indeed I do like pork" the teacher replied. concluding that the very stingy father of this boy had determined to donate some pork to him; you tell your father if there is anything in this world that do like it is pork"
 Some days passed. and there was no pork forthcoming. At last the Seach- CT met the boy alone in the school yard. Look here, John," he said, how about that pork?"

Yes; but 1 should Ilke--

Here's your revolver. I'd throw it away, if were you"
 Darrel pushed the weapon into the young mans hand, turned sharply and retraced his steps to HawkbilPs. The two gamblers were still at table.
 What Darrel purposed doing called for skill and courage. Both qualities were his and he sought the issue with that airy confidence to which others had often attributed his success.
 It was by meddling in somewhat similar way that he had earned the hatred Of .Murgatroyd. Yet that had not cured him of the dangerous habit.
 He had observed the gamblers care fully. One was past middle age and had iron gray hair and beard; the other was but little older than the man they had victimized
 Well, Sturgis," the younger man was saying as Darrel came up, If, we could find some one else with roll this nights work would break the rec ord.''
 You're never satisfied, Cliff," re- turned Sturgis, tossing off the contents of glass just brought by waiter.
 May sit in with you, gentlemen ?'' inquired Darrell, pleasantly.
 At that moment he looked the un- sophisticated and ingenious eastern gentleman, caring nothing for a little money and desirous only of whiling away the time. As he spoke, he dis played large roll of bills.
 s'I had thought of quitting," said Sturgis, shooting glance at his con- federate, "but still, if you want a round, I guess could accommodate you. Do you want to take hand?'' he added, carelessly, to the other gam bier.
 ''I might" returned Cliff, with ap- parent reluctance. I'm not having much luck tonight, though
 Three will make it more interest ing observed Darrel, dropping into ! chair that placed him so he could still watch the entrance. Thereupon the playing began, the youth whose battle Darrel was fight | ing, approaching the table and watch ing eagerly. Darrel allowed the two harpies to win enough of his money to give them confidence. then careless ly proposed that they play for a stake consisting of all the money they had about them.
 Certain of winning, the other two I agreed, and from that moment to the end of the game Darrel showed him. self the veteran player he was. Stur- gis purposely dealt him three aces ano himself four queens, the younger man dropped out in feigned despair an6 Darrel plucked a diamond stud from his shirt and laid it on the heap ol | gold and silver.

CHAPTER IT.

DARREL'S GAME AT HAwKBILL'S. Properly equipped with stony dis regard for human greed and frailty, any observer could have Ioitered in Hawkbill's on and after ten p. m. and been certain of exciting entertainment "A philosopher of another school might nave seen more than enough to point D moral and adorn tale and perhaps nave retreated with a discouraged sense of mans inhumanity to man.
 Barrel could be indifferent and hard, fbr sympathetic and yielding. Deep in his heart was ever feeling that stirred at another's misfortune and his moods varied with the characters of the players as well as with the play.
 He stood close to a table, facing the door and dividing his attention be- tween the fall of the cards and the men who entered. An old, old game familiarly known as two pluck one'' was in progress, wherein pair of merciless campaigners were taking money from beardless and rash youth who sat between them.

cUBANs YET UNFRlENDLY.
Government Official Reports Result of Observations Made on a
 Recent Visit.

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Taylor returned to Washington recently from trip to Cuba. He says that the natives still entertain dislike for the people of this country.
 ''The native Cubans do not" he said, "seem very friendly toward us, while the Spaniards are especially friendly. Of course, I do not refer to Cuban off cials, but to the people, who seem to en- certain some sort of fear that it is the intention, at no remote date, of this country to annex Cuba, and that Ameri- can enterprise and capital will come in and dominate affairs to the detriment of the interests of Cuban residents. This feeling undoubtedly will be allayed as time goes on.
 Cuba was pleasant disappointment tome. The city of Havana is kept scrupu- lously clean. have never seen an Amer ican city where the streets and alleys were cleaner than in Havana, thanks to Gen. Wood and others. The country out side. the city Of Havana is quite pie turesque, and surprisingly fertile. There are forests of sugar cane and vast tO- bacco plantations and cocoanut groves, and pineapple orchards without number The city of Havana Is notably lacking in hotel accommodations. There are numerous hotels there, but they are not up to a proper standard, and prices are extra high.
 "The first general election was held one Sunday while was there, and passed off quietly, somewhat to the surprise of the officials. There had been anticipa- tion of some rioting in various prov inces, but good order generally prevailed and the people acquiesced in the results. 7

TRAIN HELPED THE HAWK.
Flushed Small Birds from Bushes aa It Rushed By and the Hawk
 Seized Them.

An interesting instance of birds quickness to take advantage of new and favorable conditions is recorded by Mr. Frank M. Chapman, the well-known nat Aralist. 1t occurred in the island oz Trinidad, states the Youths Companion
 T had just arrived in the island, hd says. "and was travelling over one of its short lines of railway toward my future home in the forests of the south ern coast. As we rattled rather slowly past great mangrove swamps. through bits of forests, or over boundless fields of sugarcane, the car window became 8 frame for series of fascinating pic- lures of tropical life.
 Occasionally caught glimpses of snowy herons feeding on the great black mud flats near the coast; again saw vulture wheeling in the air, or singular anis in the cane-fields. Finally my att tention was attracted by small falcon flying with the train, and about 50 feet above it. For some time it maintained the same relative position over tho train, then suddenly, and with great swiftness, darted ahead and was lost to view.
 "A few minutes later observed an- other hawk of the same species occupy ing the same position above the train. AS watched, this bird also darted ahead of the train. It was not long befoEe third hawk was seen overhead. and. like it's predecessors, it, too, suddenly. shot forward and disappeared.
 T then began to suspect that in real4 ity the three hawks were but one, whoseA object in following the train was toi secure tho small birds which our loud approach startled from near the track.
 The performance was repeated sew eral times, and my surmise was, in part, confirmed by seeing the hawk actually dive into thicket just ahead of the en- zine. Indeed, 1t appeared that the train, like sportsman's spaniel flushed the birds for the hawk. which, in the lan- guage of falconry, was waiting on overhead.
 Further support of this theory was given me by the observations of gen. tleman living in Trinidad, who re- marked that dead tree near the line of the railway was the customary perch of a hawk. After watching this bird for some time he found it made regular raids on the flocks of small birds which flew up from the track as the train passed, and he came to the conclusion that the bird had selected this stand because of the excellent opportunities it offered for securing food"
