BIG BEE NEAR BAILEY.
BRYAN SLIP HIS CHANCE.
Friends Think TeFan HODes for
Presidential Nomination.


Washington Sept 4.-senator Bailey. of Texas.
passed through Washington this afternoon and
from certain guarded remarks which he made Co
his Democratic friends a rumor has arisen thar
the Texas statesman has been badly stung BY
the Presidential bee. and that he intends TO en-
brace this opportunity TO erect a modest light

decide that the surest road to success consists
IN selecting a candidate OF iust about Mr.
Bailey's size and stature Mr. Bailey admits

the nomination OF a safe and conservative
southerner OF precisely the Bailey stamp
Inere IL no question that the entire South is
alarmed and disgruntled by Bryan's railroad
pronouncement, and there are many who believe
thaU a picturesque figure like Bailey would ap-

Batleys relations with certain Northern Demo-

Buried Boz Treasure.

While playing in the grounds of
a Dutch church at Kroonstad, South
Africa, two Boer children made an
interesting discovery. With small
spades they were digging a hole,
and just below the surface several
gold coins were unearthed. They
continued to dig, gradually adding
to their precious store. The young
sters soon had pile of English
gold sovereigns. The sexton then
joined the search, and it was not
long before treasure to the value of
nearly $4,000 in gold and silver
coins was brought to light. Dur
ing the war the church was used as a
hospital and for housing refugees,
and it is surmised that the treasure
must have been buried by some one
who is now dead.

The Star Arcturus.

1t is quite natural for the human
mind, which associates all thoughts
and makes all comparisons by earth
" standards, to think of the inhab-
itants of some Of the monster worlds
which are known to be whirling
through space as being giants of the
most gigantic kinds. Take the star
Arcturus as an illustration. That
gigantic planet is 100000 miles in
circumference, or about 656,000
miles straight through from pole to
pole, or from equator to equator.
Our little world is only 5000 miles
in diameter, or $4,000 in circumfer-
ence. In fact, it is such a mere
pygmy compared with Arcturus that
it might fall into one of that plan
cts great lakes, whether they be
water or burning seas of gas, and
bury itself out of sight. We are apt
to think of these planets as being
inhabited, however much the chances
may be against such an assumption,
and to compare such supposed per-
sons to the size of the world upon
which they live. If Arcturus is in
habited and its people are built on
the same ratio that we are an aver
age Arcturian cannot fall much
short Of being twelve miles in
height.

HAIRY ELEPHANTS.

The skin of the elephant is prac-
hcally destitute of the hairy coat
which is the distinctive covering Of
mammals But the extinct man.
moth had an undercoat of reddish
brown woolly fur, in which dark,
bristly hairs were thickly set Both
wool and hair have been found with
remains in the frozen soil of Siberia.
Some years since traces of this fur
were discovered in the Indian ele-
phant, and from tin'e to time IN
dividuals occur in which the hairs
are developed to such an extent as
to be noticeable by casual observ-
ers. A natural history journal has
called attention to the fact that
there is now hairy elephant in the
geological gardens at Easel. SO thick
is the growth that at the congress
of biologists at Berne in August,
1904, the remark, was made-of
course in jest-that the animal was
really mammoth. Rustum, an In
dian elephant that lived in the Re-
gents park gardens from 1876 to
1882, when it was presented to the
Berlin gardens was almost as hairy.
The calf born in London in 1902
had hairy coat, as may be seen
from its mounted skin in the Nat
ural History museum.

to minutely examine the tenets
Of Christ. He had seen the won
derful transformations which
Christian life makes in human
being, aud all the time that he
was madly prosecuting the Chris
tians, they were drawing him to
Christianity. But he would not
give in. Whenever he found
himself admiring Christian be-
havior he crushed the sentiment.
IT he found himself wondering if
they might not be right, he
crushed that sentiment. He
tried to down all these thoughts
by prosecuting them the more.
He followed them to strange cit
les. He even asked permission
to ferret out Christians in terri
tory outside Judea. He was
kicking against the goads
goads of his conscience. He was
like an OK refusing to take the
gentle command and getting
sharply pricked because of his
refusal. 1t was hard for Saul to
give III. but finally the Lord ap-
peared to him right in the midst
Of one of his cruel missions, and
then he yielded, completely
yielded, Does this proverb ever
apply to US? Are there not
times when we feel that we
should do so and so and do not
want to? We will not yield and
in spirit of defiance, we do just
the opposite. We try to crush
out the good thought, the inn
pulse to change Our course and do
the good thing, and the method
we take to crush out the good
thought is to continue the bad
more than ever. We even be-
come recklessly attached to the
evil and all the time we are in
wardly suffering. We are kick.
ling against the goads and they
are hurting us. Have we ever
had dear friend with whom we
have quarreled? His friendship
was very dear TO us, but it wa:
lost and in our hearts we wan
him again as a friend, but there
lis something in Us that says "No
no." and we try to stifle ou1
feelings by acting as if we hatee
him, by saying unkind thing,
about and 10 him, by behaving
discourteously toward him. ant
the worse we behave the NOR,
we are longing to be on gool
terms with him, the more ou
heart aches. We are kicking
against the pricks. One save
himself much bitterness if b
yields to the good impulses whe
they come, if he does not set hi
own self-will against the work
= ing of the Holy Spirit. If b
yields himself to the good whe
the good suggests itself. In la
: ter years St. Paul could write
"Quench not the Spirit. H
: knew by experience how unhapp
it made one to kick against th
goads; but how happy one coul
be if he yielded himself to tn
gentle guidance.

1t is hard for thee to kick

by Our Lord himself in speaking

He kicked against it, but the
more he kicked the more it hurt
him. and in the end he had to
