This Years Corn Crop.

The value of the yield Of corn for 1905
is shown by the Intev-O Ocean in the fol-
lowing comparisons: cat an average of
so cents a bushel-and corn is we'll ABOVE
that price in the Chicago market-the
corn crop will be worth $l,3l2, 800, 900.
On September l our National debt, in
Guiding all outstanding greenbacks, was
$l,2S3, III $3.50. So with our corn crop we
could pay off the entire National debt
and redeem every greenback in gold, and
still have nearly S30,0OO,OOO left to cele-
brate the feat. We could, from our corn
crop alone, and if there were any reason
for so doing, give every man, woman and
child of the SO,OOO,OoO people in this ma
ton, over $40 each to buy a Thanksgiv-
ing dinner. We could with our corn
crop pay off every bond and redeem
every share of the United States Steel
corporation, make the shareholders for
get that dividends were ever passed and
have over $4OO, 100000 left for the relief
of other trusts. We could with our corn
crop pay the heirs of every Equitable
policy y-holdcr the face of his policy with
out waiting for him to die and without
touching the company's assets at ALL"
The Inter-Ocean concludes. "We could
play all sorts of tricks with our corn
crop, so enormous and so valuable is it.
And yet this is only one of our crops.
When we consider it and the others we
may well rejoice and thank God for our
goodly hcritagc.n

Coming Judicial Elections.

1t will be of general interest to note
that quite number of judicial elections
will be held by the General Assembly at
its next session. According to the re-
cords in the Office of the Secretary of
State the elections that will be held at
the next session will be to fill the posi-
tions now held by Chief Justice Pope,
Judge Dantzler, Judge Aldrich, Judge
Purdy, Judge Watts, Judge Gage and
Judge Klugh. These half dozen cleo
tions will enliven the next session to a
considerable extent. 1t is not known
whether all of the present judiciary,
whose terms expire during the year
1905, will be candidates for reelection.
There have been suggestions that some
of the present members of the bench
will retire to private life, and that they
have had quite enough of the worries
and tribulations of life on the bench

The cornerstone of the imposing
monument to Jefferson Davis, President
of the Confederate States, was laid in
Richmond, Va, last Wednesday under
the auspices of the Daughters of the
Confederacy. 1t will cost, when finished,
over 100000.
The news from Russia is sickcning.
Thousands of people are being murdered
on the streets of the cities, and the
authorities seem powerless to restrain
the atrocities that are being pcrpctrated
upon even the helpless women and chill
drcn. The Jews seem to suffer most, an
insane hatred against them being enter
tanned by the bigottcd religious fanatics
of that country who call themselves
Christians, but might well be termed
"ikon- oclasts."
Senator Clay, of Georgia, is quoted as
saying that it looks to him as if, when
the time comes for discussing the qucs-
ton of nominations for President, there
would be a popular demand for another
term for President Roosevelt and that
he believes if he runs he will have no
opposition. representative Livingston,
of Georgia, is quoted rs saying that the
Democrats have no man who can beat
Mr.. Roosevelt and that the Republicans
have no one in their ranks who can get
the nominntion of their party if Mr..
Roosevelt wants it,

Charles Wesley.


Charles Wesley, one hundred and
twenty-on of whose songs are sent
forth anew in the Methodist Hymnal,
was perhaps the most winning per-
sonality of all that gifted family. A
writer in the London Wesleyan
Magazine gives some traditions of
his daily life and its association with
Marylebone church, where he now
lies buried. When in middle life he
felt the call to leave Bristol and take
up mission work in the city of Lon
don, he and his beloved wife were
much troubled for want of house
to live in. They at last betook them
selves to prayer. The answer to
that prayer is one of the romances
of Methodism. 1t came in the shape
of a letter from a rich widow who
offered them her house in Maryle-
bone to be used as their own.
With his devoted wife, Sarah, and
his two little sons settled in this
home, Wesley used to ride about the
lanes of the village Gas it was then)
on plump gray pony, busy with his
mission work and composing his
famous hymns as he rode. He was
so absent-minded that he was likely
to cut his best friends when they met
him. The sight of his rosy, hand.
some face and his stout figure, clad
in the blue coat which had served
him many years, was a signal for
Ghoso who knew him best to run out
and forcibly seize his bride, and
thus insure the merry, fatherly greet
ing which be was ready to give once
his attention was arrested.
When special inspiration came
to him during one of his rides, he
would drop the reins, place his hands
on his hips and, turning his blne
eyes to heaven, become oblivious to
all around him, his pony following
meanwhile its own will. If one
spoke to him he did not heed, but
looked blankly at the speaker and
rode on. If he came to house he
would suddenly dismount, tie his
pony to the ratings, and, entering,
whether he knew the people or not,
violently demand paper and pen to
set down his precious thoughts.
When this was done he would awake
to consciousness of his surroundings
and, turning, would say, "Peace to
this house," SO sweetly that all hearts
were won and all breaches of eti-
quette forgotten.
In spite of his seeming dissent, he
came to be one of the beloved celebri-
ties of the place, as he spent his busy
life in mission work, preaching in
the open air, and singing his own
hymns in his sweet baritone voice on
the streets at the outdoor services.
His personality was extremely at
tractive. He was larger, stouter,
more genial than his brother, John,
but with the same handsome, clear
cut features. His wife and children
adored him and thought nothing too
hard to do for him or to bear from
him. The rector of Marylebone
himself was quite won by the charm
of the "Mcthodist" preacher, and
came to visit him constantly. In
deed, the delightful musical even
ings at the Wesley home drew many
visitors. The two talented little
sons, Charles and Samuel, played
