Of Wyoming, evolved the system which
is now in vogue He conceived the idea
Of putting the names Of all applicants
in blank, sealed envelopes, and throw
ing all these envelopes in a great box,
from which they were to be drawn, one
by one. In order to insure perfect mix
ing Of the names, the box was to be
turned at intervals, and, after each rev
olution, three envelopes would be drawn
forth by as many children, chosen for
the purpose.
When Commissioner Richards made
public this plan there were warm OBJ
jections on the ground that it was a lot
terry, in direct defiance OF the govern
ments own laws. The matter was
brought before President Mckinley,
and he was told Of the objection to the
new plan.
''If that is the only objection. I will
sign the bill at once" said President
Mcinley, 'as l am convinced there is
no element of gambling in it."

BERLIN, Aug. pa meeting of the

ance company of New York and of the
New York Life Insurance company
called under the auspices of the German
branch of the International Policy Hold
crs' committee was held here today and
attended by about 200 persons. 1t was
decided not to recommend Il German
candidate for membership on each board
as the international committee recon-
mended, owing to the Inconvenience i'll
attending meetings, but the meeting ad-
vised the German holders to content
themselves with voting for the two Ger
man candidates resident i'll New York.
Director Dernburg of the Darmstaeter
bank, who recently visited New York,
said that the American life insurance
companies were on Il solid basis and
that the German policy holders were not
mourning any risk i'll continuing their
policies. A representative from the I'm
perial insurance office, who was present.
said that the New York and the Mu-
tuaI had made satisfactory deposits in
Germany to safeguard their German in"

THE BOOK OF WISDOM.


Text The proverbs of Solomon,
the son Of David, King of Israeli
Proverbs i: 1.
The worldly wisdom Of to-day may
assume that it knows more than Solo
mon, but an application of his princi-
pies would improve the condition of the
business world. Link with this reform
the indutry which Solomon recon-
mends, and you will have thrift and
universal prosperity. Go to the ant,
thou sluggard. consider her ways and
be wise; which, having no guide, over
seer, or ruler, proyideth her meat in
the summer and gathereth her food in
the harvest" InfidelS once laughed at
this passage, because scientists declared
that ants did not lay up food for the
winter. But further investigation has
proved the Bible to be correct, for there
are ants in Syria that do lay by their
winter supplies. There is no need of
argument to prove the truth Of the
other proverb, 1.-THE hand Of the dill
gent shall bear rule, but the slothful
shall be under tribute" The lazy peo-
pie of every community are always
under tribute to the industrious.
Keep thy heart with all diligence,
for out of it are the issues Of life
This proyerb expresses the teaching of
Jesus Christ. Over the archway in the
old Tombs prison of New York were
the words, The way of transsressors
is hard" and every criminal who
passed beneath it needed no argument
to prove its truth. On the walls of
every store should be hung the words,
"a false balance is abominatiOn to the
Lord, but a just weight is his delight"
convictions in order that you may
further your interests, social or finan-
cial, recall the words, Buy the truth
and sell it not" They will give stiff
ness to your moral backbone and
stamina to your character. No man can
afford to hold truth for sale.
If we are tempted to hoard when we
ought to give, let rs remember the
words: There is that scattereth and
yet increaseth, and there is that with
holdeth more than is meet, and it tend
eth to poverty" THE liberal soul shall
be made fat, and he that watereth shall
be watered also himself" To receive
and keep is to make oneself a Dead
Sea- And lest we may be tempted by
fear of poverty, bear in mind the other
proverb: Better is a little with the
fear of the Lord than great treasure
and trouble Herewith"

, cor the new sect, called them Chris
/ ttanS.' because the name Christ was
prominent in their conversation. doc,
trine and worship.
The name Christian is indeed very
appropriate TO the true disciple OF
Christ. 1t is name in which all dis.
tinction of Jew and Gentle may be
lost, and one that can embrace in its
broad, significant and definite meaning
all Of every nation who would become
converts of Christ. It IS a name that
should reveal TO the world the life and
character of those who bear it,
The Christians manner of life should
be worthy the name that he bears.
"A Christian when he makes a good
profession should be sure to make his
profession good" There should be a
visible harmony between profession and
practice The Christian IS watched by
the world. No hawk watched a spar
row with more intent malignity than
the world does the Christian. The
wicked are not surprised by the mis-
steps of the infdel or the man of the
world, but they expect something differ
ent from the Christian
Christians have professed more than
others and the world may justly expect
more from them. They have promised
to keep the commandments, to obey the
gospel; to love one another; to be lust
and true and kind to all; to pity the
miserable; to forgive their enemies ;
to live not for this world but for the
world to come. They have professed
to take Christ as their example-to
live as he lived. They have promised
all this solemnly. They have vowed it
unto the Lord. That VOW is as solemn
as an oath. 1t is only by Christians
doing more than others that true re-
HgiOn is kept alive in the world Take
away the bright examples of good men
and true piety will soon die out of the
world. Christians are the salt of the
earth and the light of the world If
the world is ever saved it must be done
by the people of God. There is no one
thing that stands in the way of the
conversion of men so much as a lack
OF confidence in the sincerity OF Chris

Simple Method of Determining Lev

els on the Farm.
A very simple way of roughly deter
mining levels, and one which can read
lily be practiced by any one and which
has the advantage Of not requiring any
special apparatus, is by means of a
spirit level and a board with a straight
edge, says Farming The way to 90
about it is this: First determine on
two points the levels Of which you wish
to determine, and drive stakes into the
ground. Then take board with a
straight edge and tack it to tree, if
one happens to be available in a line
with these two stakes: otherwise drive
a third stake into the ground. Put the
board at such a height that you can
readily sight over it, and carefully
level this board by means of the spirit
level. Then sight over it toward one
of the stakes, having some one at that
stake who will by means Of small
piece Of paper locate the point at which
your line of vision cuts tin other
words. where a line projected from
your sighting board would strike the
stake. Make some sort Of mark at
this point, and then sight to the other
stake in the same way, and mark the
point where the line would strike it.
By measuring distances that these
two points are above the ground you
can get the difference in levels with
reasonable accuracy. For instance, if
your line Of vision has cut one stake

CLEVELAND. O.. Aug. 25-Mayor
Johnson yesterday declared war on the
Cleveland Electric Railway company i'll
behalf of the city and in favor of the
Forest City Railway company. The
Cleveland Electric asked for an injumc-
ton against the Forest City company.
At a conference regarding the joint
use of Fulton road, Mayor johnson be-
came incensed at President Andrews re-
marks, questioning City Solicitor Bak
er's sincerity, and the mayor said. ad-
dressing the Cleveland Electric officials:
There's only one way to make you
people be decent and fair, and that is to
use a club on you. | favor the use of
the club"
And he emphasized his words with Il
blow upon the table. The mayors ulti-
matum made il clear that from now on
it would be war to n finish between him
and the Cleveland Electric The latter.

it had no franchises. and police would
be sent out to stop its cars at the proper
time.

The old plan of opening Indian reser-
vations was to line all the homeseekers
at the edge Of the coveted ground and
to let them race for the prizes. The
results of these rushes have been some
thing terrible to contemplate. There
are suits still pending as the result Of
disputes growing out of the first Okla
hOma opening, in 1893. Men who had
killed fast horses in getting 20 yalu-
able claims found their rights disputed
by "sooners," who had crept on the res
eryation, despite all the efforts of sol
diers to keep them off. Gun plays were
made, and the struggle for lands was
nothing short of bestial, bringing out
all that was worst in the natures of the
men engaged. The weak had no chance
against the strong, and the many evils
OF the system were SO apparent that
the government officials made up their
minds never to have another rush for
public lands.

With the public drawing for Sho-
shone Indian reservation lands at Ian
der, Wyo., came the sixth test of the
governments lottery system.
At the opening Of the Crow reserva-
ton in Montana recently the system
worked to perfection. Sixteen thou
sand persons We're registered in two
weeks, and In the presence Of n large
crowd, these names were drawn from
a box at the rate Of about 1000 per
day, and the names of the prize win
ners announced. In fact, since the first
trial Of tho so-calIed lottery system at
the secoW. Oklahoma opening, there
has not LAen a single valid objection
raised against this method of throw
ing Indian lands open to white settle
ment, and the plan Of distribution will
doubtless continue In effect until there
are no more of Los acres to distribute.
