Humanity Heir to SUFFERING.

Fiction. Much of the suffering we bring
on ourselves by violating natures laws
which are Gods laws. There is no posi-
BILE escape from the penalty of natures
violated law. There is no forgiveness as
far as law is concerned
He who thrusts his hand in the fire
must suffer. He who exposes himself to
overpowering heat will be overcome by
it. He who ventures too far in physcal
strain must pay for the strain. God has
so ordered it that if we enjoy physical

THE MYSTERIES OF LIFE

The Rev. Dr. l. D. Steele occupied the
pulpit at the First Cumberland Presby-
terrain church yesterday morning at the
II o'clock services, preaching on the sub
ject of providence and Affiction,' TAX
ing his text from the eighteenth verse of
the eighth chapter of Romans: 81 reckon
that the sufferings of this present time
are not worthy to be compared with the
glory which shall be revealed in US"
DR.. Steele spoke in part as follows:
Many are the mysteries of life. We do
not understand many of the ways of God.
Some of the plans of God are revealed.
others are shrouded In darkness 1t is not
necessary, neither is it best for us to
know all the great designs of the Crea
tor We should not be able to understand
some OF them nor TO appreciate the great
plan of God.
We know enough to feel that the hand
that is over us seeks to guide us to hap
piness and peace. But we are not willing
to submit to the leadings of the Al
mighty.

HARDROSS COURAGE. young English gen
IL tleman, engaged room at the Hotel Universal
London. AS he was about to retire the first night
man half clothed rushed into his room. hyster-
ically begging not to let his pursuers follow.
The latter, two men, burst through the door of a
connecting room, despite Courages protests, and
demanded the right to search the ROOM saying
that the man they were hunting was dangerous
character. They turned out the lights, and there
ensued terrific fight in the darkness, with terrible
groans from some one. Courage struck one of the
assailants and just before the melee was over
thought he heard the rustic of woman's skirt and
detected an odd perfume; but when he turned on
the lights not sign of person was visible.
The porter whom he summoned, insisted that
he heard nothing; and the next morning Courage
received notice from the hotel management order
ing him out for creating disturbance.
He brought the hotel man to terms by explain
ing his standing and threatening Scotland Yard
investigation. A young woman. with her maid
and dog. passed near, exhaling the same per-
fume that he had noticed in his room the night
before.
Courage met Miss Adele Van Hoyt. the young
woman in question, at the cricket match and later
she told him that the man he defended a traitor
and renegade, who possessed a tremendous secret,

which she advised him to lure from him. He found
Guest, the man in question, sick in bed and
prisoner the same hotel, and was told that he
must decide by the next day if he would become
the bearer of the secret affair of life and death.
Courage took dinner with Adele, and told her
that she the only woman he could ever care
for and that his time and life were hers. She then
told him to take Guest to his country home and
learn the secret
The following day Courage was drugged by
James Stanley, one of the men who had burst into
his room. and when he awoke the next afternoon
all of the persons in whom he was most concerned
had left the hotel. He disgustedly departed for his
home, and was astounded to find Guest already
there having been sent by Adele.
Guest told Courage that he was Wortley Foote,
the notorious spy, who had nearly brought all
Europe to war He asked the latter to take his
burden and carry it on to the end.
Lady Dennsford, Courages neghbor, and Guest
were once intimate friends. Courage found Adele
stopping at the Dennisfords'.
Guests prosecutors began to arrive in the neigh
borhood and to poster Courage. Guest refused to
make the concessions necessary to secure relief
from the sentence of death that had been pro,
nounced by the system. Courage was warned
against accepting Guests trust.

OVER in Gunnison county there
was a theory among politicians
that advancing a name prema-
turely was the surest possible
form of assassinating its owner
ahead of the convention. we
wonder whether Bro. Frederick
had the old Gunnison idea i'll his
head when he nominated about
all the eligible republicans in this
precinct for the Legislature this
fall. For a man who does so
blamed little voting Bro. Fred
erick is showing degree of"Per-
nicious activity" in the manage
ment of politics that would easily
get him fired out of the postfhce
if he CHANGED to hold the i'm
portant position of postmaster
As one man who is anxious to Sc
cure the naming of some Paonia
people on the democratic ticket,
we respectfully request that Bro.
Frederick devote his time and
attention to the G. o. p. and let
the democrats put up their men
in the convention called for that
purpose.
The newspaper., 1906-02-16

IT turns out that the Gazette is
not so strongly in favor of munic-
ipal ownership as we had sup
posed. This week he announces
that his support has strong and
trusty string attached to it. 1t is
contingent upon the city purchas-
ing the Beezley plant at the price
fixed by the owner without any
reference to its value. An invoice
taken by Mr.. Beezley and the
council showed that the plant had
cost So, 300. Mr. Beezley consid-
ers that he should have a bonus
OF S1,500 over and above that
amount. AS rule the value of
plants of machinery decrease
somewhat in value in three years
use instead of increasing almost
one third. MIR. Frederick objects
to the "buy or build" clause. 1t is
the only one that can protect the
city. Mr.. Beezley may decide
he does not wish to sell at all.
He is not bound to do so. Then
where would the city be in the
matter?
