'The Ninety and Nine"
There were ninety and nine that safely
lay
In me shelter of the fold;
But one was out on the hills away,
Far off from the gates of gold
Away OH the mountains wild and bare.
Away from the tender Shepherds care.
"Lord, thou hast here thy ninety and
nine;
Are they not enough for thee?"
But the Shepherd made answer: IT'S
of mine
Has wander'd away from me;
And although the road be rough and
so to the desert to find my sheep"
But none of the ransom'd ever knew
How deep were the waters cross'd,
Nor how dark was the night that the
Lord passed through
Ere he found his sheep that was lost.
Out in the desert he heard its cry
Sick and helpless, and ready to die.
Lord whence are those blood drops all
the way.
That mark out the mountain track?'
"'They were shed for one who had gone
astray
Ere the Shepherd could bring him
back"
Lord. whence are thy hands so rent and
torn?"
'They are pierced tonight by many a
thorn"
But all through the mountains, thunder
riven.
And up from the rocky steep.
There rose n cry to the gate Of heaven,
Rejoice. | have found my sheep
And the angels echoed around the throne,
Rejoice, for the Lord brings back his
own"
Elizabeth Cecilia Clephane.

Senator AIger Retres.

Gen. Russell A. Alger announces that
he will not accept another term as
United States Senator from Michigan.
While not entirely a surprise it is in
teresting and important because it
makes an open field for the succession
to this high Office and it marks the
closing of the public labors of one who
has given very largely of his time and
ability to the service of the state and
nation for large portion of his life
time
Beginning with most honorable war
record, he did not lose interest in his
comrades but became the Commander
in Chief of the Grand Army, gave two
years to the thankless task of the
governship, undertook the work of Sec
rotary of war at the most trying time
in the last quarter century and finally
accepted unanimous election to the
United State Senate. He should be al
lowed to retire without any further
demands upon him and with the thanks
of all classes for his long and faithful
services

The Worlds Loss.

The worlds greatest diplomat passed
away with the death of John Hay and
it is hoped that some one has so studied
Hays work that he may undertake it
with success. Starting with Lincoln he
obtained a training in many ways
that no one else could have given him;
hurried along into the strife of civil
war, then into the broad field of New
York journalism, then to study and lit
erary work and then back to diplomacy.
he was prepared for every emergency.
The striking points in the long and
successful career were foresight, cour-
age and traightforwardness. He did
not await necessity for action, but
rather sought opportunity-not seeking
antagonisms and conflicts, but refusing
to close his eyes to the signs of the
times and not awaiting the clutch Of
circumstances before listening to the
call of duty.
All the duties of the department were
handled with equal care whether they
were of high or low degree and whether
they were old and uninteresting matters
or new and full of importance. BY
this kind Of labor he has placed his
name very high on the American diplo-
matte roster and brsaght to the present
day history some OF the lustre that
adorned its earlier pages
