From none of us does he ask such service as he himself rendered to us When the army of Alexander the Great was scaling a noted mountain pass the strength of the soldiers became ex- hausted Many threw themselves upon the ground to die. The great commander saw the condition. He did not curse or upbraid He quietly dismounted from war charger He threw aside his heavy cloak He lifted a private soldiers pickax then vigorously went to work digging away at the ice. His soldiers saw him. They knew he was as tired as they. Then they jumped to their feet. By the power of a brave example they arose and went again to work, and again won a new victory. Christian soldiers. wherever we go we can find our Divine Leader ahead. Our backs may ache, but he is carrying our burden of sin. Our feet may grow tired. but from his feet and hands and head and heart are flow ing streams of blood. In olden times a soldier was said to have gathered an armful of painting spears and pressed them into his own breast that over his prostrate body his com rades might find breach in the enemys ranks and charge to vic tory. So over Christ's body we may win eternal life. And here and now upon the foundation stones of a Christs mausoleum may we build the great white temple of a Christian soldiers sacrifice"

Distinct Place Reserved.
 Each American soldier always had distinct place reserved for him in the ranks where he was supposed to fight. Sometimes in battle an American soldier might get separated from his company. During the two days fight before San tiago an American lieutenant saw col bred trooper of tho Tenth cavalry fight ingA by the side of his white men. When the lieutenant asked the black man why he was there he answered, T have lost my command, and so, sir if you will, I would like to fight in your company" The permission was given. That night, when the colored soldier was about to hunt up his command, he asked the lieu tenant to give him a note to his cap tain to prove that he had been in battle and not skuking in the rear. The next day, when going over the field hunting for his dead and wounded this same lieutenant found upon the bloody field the same colored trooper mortally wounded. The colored trooper beckoned to the lieutenant to lean over him. Then the dying man whispered Take that note and give 1t to the captain of I. troop Tenth cavalry.

power behind the main line, making 1t possible for other Christian soldiers to fight in the open. Paul Is saying to the soldier in the rear as well as at the front. to the inconspicuous as well as the con spicuous soldier alike. Endure hardships as a good soldier of Jesus Christ"
 And why should we all endure hard ness as good soldiers of Jesus Christ? For two reasons. First, because 1t is possible for every private well as Christian officer to receive the highest of all soldiers rewards. What is the highest? Yea, the very highest? We have read how the Duke of Marlbor- created a duke, but on account of the Blenheim victory parliament voted him the magnificent manor of Woodstock and his royal mistress gave him s1,0o0- 000. We have read how Arthur Wellesley was raised to the Duke of Wellington on account of his victory at Waterloo. Lord Roberts. recently the commander of the British forces, and Viscount Kit chener were raised to the peerage for their services rendered to the British crown. But all these offerings and honors, these dignites and fame, given by grateful country to faithful sons, will be as nothing compared to the great est gift which is given to a Christian soldier The gift which is the smile of approbation from a loving Divine Com mander The Well doner' which goes to the Christian hero of the name of Adoniram Judson- The Well done." which is given to the humble servant girl and to the humble clerk and to the hum ble nurse and to the humble missionary.
 The Soldiers Sacrifice.
 But why again, should we all endure hardness as good soldiers of Jesus Christ? Because in so doing we are fol- lowing his blessed example. He who

 What is war? War is hell" once buntly said William T. Sherman. War is a river of blood flowing into river of blood. War means sickness and death widowhood and orphanhood, mangled bodies devastated harvest fields and paul perism, War is a mortal grapple when nation says to nation, My quarrel with you cannot be settled but by fighting, and now we will see which of us two has the power to crush the other." and then they put their armies in the field commissioned to kill one another. War is a grave trench dug with bayonets. It is the heav- en deluging countless tears. It Is man with clinched fist and flaming eye-man with an artillery wagon for a carriage and with the surgeons operating table for a couch. War! It is the most brutal, the most fiendish, the most terrific, the HDSl DldSllIB curse or lHe dBeS. we ndNt the right to hate it with an intense hatred and to pray that the Prince of Peace may give us more antipathy to 1t and a more intense horror of the awful suffering and death that it entails.
 War an International Curse.
 But though war is an awful internation- al curse there have been occasions when men have entered the army and have gone to the battlefield from conscientious motives. There have been cases as every student of history knows, when 1t has become a sacred duty for the redress of wrong or for the defense of the home for the patriotic citizen to take up arms. Christ himself recognized the fact when he said, ''I came not to send peace on the earth, but sword" So it has come to pass that his followers have at times, with sore reluctance but under a stern sense of duty, engaged in war. Unhappi- ly too they have been found in hostile camps as In our own civil war, when good Christian men conscientously fol- lowed the Confederate flag as others equally conscientious followed the Union flag. A conspicuous illustration was that of Leonidas Polk, the bishop of Louisiana, whose pure Christian character none could deny He was so gentle and kind in his private life that when one of his black slaves was dying he was just as tender to him as if the black man had been his own flesh and blood On the night on which the humble slave closed his eyes in death the good bishop said, Tom, Is there anything else l can do for youY' The answer was: "Yes massa.

 Been serving on a jury" replied the other man.
 "I can sympathize with you." said MT. Makinbrakes. Tt must have been good deal of a bore. Isn't it curious, by the way, that they always seem to want ig- noramuses on jury nowadays? They never take anybody tha1-that. of course, mean as a general thing-for they do once in a while get q man of intelligence; I'm not speaking of you, of course-I oont know whether you get exactly what l am driving at or not, but-but-the fact is, I--I-thats a mighty fine stickpin you are wearing, old chap.

to take certain amount of exercise daily. Like President Roosevelt, he finds great enjoyment and benefit in walking, and when he first came to Washington he gained reputation as pedestrian. In fact, his fellow clerks in the postoffice department dubbed him MT. Walker
 MT Cortelyou kept this up even after he was detailed for duty at the White House under President Cleveland, but in later years he has not been able to take outdoor exercise so regularly. His friends now think 1t is no wonder that the young secretary regards it as mis- fortune that he is compelled. on account of the great volume of work. to ride to and from his office. But whenever he can he fincs time each day to take 'consti- tutional."
 Friends of MT Cortelyou declare that on several occasions he has walked as much as twenty-five miles in single day. But the modest secretary when questioned regarding the truthfulness of this statement. will invariably reply:
 q fear that is an exaggeration."
 Some Big Flyers.
 From March St. Nicholas.
 Of birds now in existence probably the one with the greatest expanse of wing in proportion to the body and with the greatest power of flight Is the frigate or man -o' war bird. This bird apparently flies more by skill than by strength, for it has no great carrying powers. 1nv wandering albatross, the largest or ail sea birds is also one of our strongest flyers. One bird was known to fly at lease s15O miles in twelve days. This bird was caught. tagged, released and caught again.

And yet to read some military biographers you might suppose the personal worth of Grant a sherman Meade, Hancock. was the cause of all the victories achieved by the northern armies in the civil war and the mental powers of a Lee Longstreet, a Jackson, a Gordon, a Johnson, were the cause of all the victories of the southern armies.
 The unrecognized heroes of the civil war have not had their due. The generals and the boys who fought at the front have been honored as they deserved. but who has had a tribute of praise to give to the self sacrificing men who made 1t possible for the fighting soldiers to live and die at the front? I would sing the praises of the muleteers. I would sing the praises of the army officers who bought the shoes and the stockings and the trousers and the coats and the hats and the blankets and forwarded them and never let a dishonest dollar stick to their fingers. I would sing the praises of the ambulance corps, and of the sol diers who acted as nurses. Did you ever stop to think that in all the United States from the Atlantic to the Pacific, there is not one, not even one. monu- ment erected to an army surgeon? Many memorial stones for McPherson and Sherman, d magnificent remembrance to Grant, but not one monument for one surgeon. In all the United States not one monument erected to a mastering off cer who stayed at home to fill up the ranks Not one In all the United States not one erected to the faithful paymas- ters who carried around the money so esential to the support of the soldiers children at home. And yet those sac rificing deeds of the heroes of the civil war made it possible for their brothers in blue and in gray to stay at the front and fight on the picket line.

cast 1920 less votes in 1903 than they
did for congressman IN 1900. The demo.
Gratis in 1903 cast 564 more votes for

man in 1900. For congressman in 1902
they cast 1867 less votes than they
did for governor last fall, and 161
more than they did for governor in
1901, but their vote was 1855 less than

REMOVED.

Grinnell, Oct. 1S-There was an
other mass meeting of the depositors
of the defunct First National bank in

was appointed to communicate with
Congressman Lacey for the removal OF
the present receiver, and the appoint
ment of some Grinnell man chosen by
the creditors. The depositors are not
at all satisfied with the present re-
ceiver. They fear that he is incom-
petent that he was appointed solely
because of some political pull and that
his main purpose is to make as much
as possible out of the job, for himself
in salary and expenses. For this rea-
son they are worried and want the
congressman to act.
The present receiver, Mr.. Swords, is
a lawyer from Iowa City, with nc
special knowledge, it is claimed, OF

fit him for his place. There was nc
reason the depositors say for going
