The only life that is 1T for time ID
founded on eternity.
Religion will secure a higher rating
as 1t deals more In reality.
Enthusiasm is a good engine, but II
needs intelligence for a driver.
The valley of the shadow il not the
same place as the chasm Of sin.
When a man lays his sins to nature
he is charging God with his guilt.
When q sermon does not tire the
preacher it 10 sure to weary the peo-
pie.
The church loses the man because II
does not realize that Christ loves the
boy.
The man who has outgrown the Bi.
BILE has a head that may explode some
day.
When man enlists with God he
lets Him choose his rank and uni.
form.
The trial Of lie becomes q beaten
track before you can get back to
erase It.
Where the fruits Of the spirit are not
found. there the works Of the flesh
abound.
In the coming day a mans work
will be measured by it, worth to the
Kingdom.
Tho Gospel Of Christ IL the only
power that has made the river of hu.
mainly flow uphill.
1t must seem strange to the angels
to hear men preach on art and myths
when the church IL surrounded by the
hungry and the sad.

FATHER OF THE NAVY.

In st. Mary's churchyard, Philadel-
phia, is the almost forgotten grave of
Commodore John Barry, shipmaster
who at the opening of the Revolution
airy War offered his services to Con-
gress and was given the command of
the Lexington. Now an effort is being
made to erect a more suitable me-
mortal to him. The very name Of the
famous old fighter was once a terror
on the high seas. but now little is
known of this patriot and personal
friend of Washington. who proudly
replied to General Howe's offer of
twenty thousand pounds and command
Of a British squadron, 1.-THE English

Barry was not, as Is sometimes
stated, the first to hoist the American
ensign at sea. but to him belongs the
honor Of christening the union dag
with the thirteen stripes in naval COM
bat. 1t was when he commanded the
Lexington that he bore the ensign to
Its first battle. which was also Its first
victory.
1t was Barry who took Lafayette
back to France. an honored and disni-
fed trust. 1t was also Barry who, in
his last engagement in the Revolution.

TWAS a proud day when Commodore

sion but warm heart. Once during the

temper completely, and Justify beat the
boatswain about the head with his
speaking trumpet. When he Gained

called the boatswain into his cabin and
apologized frankly and sincerely. From
that day the injured man was Barry's
stanch friend and adherent.
He disliked hesitation or uncertainty
Of any kind. When one OF his officers

WOmcn Fight "A Duel.

The Rue Bondy 10 Paris was the scene
Monday night Of fatal and mysterious
tragedy which the police are at present
engaged in unraveIipg. Shortly after 5
O'Clock two cabs dashed up at full speed
the driyers lashing their horses as II rae
ing with each other. They pulled up
suddenly, and ont Of each cab jumped a
woman. rhey Immediately made a rush
at one another, and began clawing each
others faces with their nails. The cab
men looked on calmly, and soon noisy
crowd closed round the comba'ants, urg-
ing them on. The younger woman who
was only about II years fage, suddenly
exclaimed: cone or the other Of US must
die !" and whipped out small gilt dag
get from her bosom. Her antagonist
pulled a long haipin from her hat, and a
desperate duel began between the two
infnriated women, whose hands were COW
cred with blood. With lightning move
ment the younger woman then plunged
her dagger into The others body. The
woman fell and died Immediately. One
of the bystanders, musician employed
at an adjoining theater in the Porte st.
Martin. rushed forward to secure. the
murderess, but with a furious blow she
stabbed him also, and jumped into the
cab which had brought her to the spot,
and drove rapidly away. The murdered
woman's body was conveyed to the
morgue, and the injured man to the
hospital. Yesterday afternoon the police
succeeded in arrssting the aggressor, who
gave her name as Clementine Ponciaux,
a steel polishsr. She swors before the
magistrate that she did not even know
the woman she had killed, and who, she
alleged, attacked her without provocation.
