Chicago, juno 6.--Diseiplinesis something I'M
known to the wh1tesox. jones is manager in
name only, for he takes little heed of the
goings and comings of his players, and has
failed to command the respect of the men to
whom he should be the leader
D1ssension of every character In the ranks
Of the club marked its last trip, and instead of
handling the situation with a strong hand, Jones
refused to talk to anyone many Of his players
included; and the result was inevitable. That
little tilt between Jones and Smith in Detroit
was only outcropping of the pickering that
; has been going on, and which is responsible to
a great extent for the poor work of the team
on this trip. . :, :
Charges and counter charges have been made
! by players and against them, and the lack of
! tact on the part of the nominal manager has
! only served to aggruvate instead of alleviate
the intensity Of the.situdtion.

Story of a Jack.Knife.

More than seventy years ago
young man owned jack-knife, which
he sold for a gallon of rum, and by
retailing it by the glass made enough
to buy two gallons, and by selling
that he was able to increase the
quantity he purchased. He got bar
rel, then a cask, and at last large
stock, and having a turn for business
and industry he became rich-and
when he died left $4,000 to his
three sons and one daughter. The
daughter married a man who spent
her money, and she died. The sons
entered into folly and extravaganza
and two died of, dissipation and in
poverty. The last of the family lived
for many years on the charity OF
those who had known him in his
prosperity.
He died a short time since sudden
ly, in a barn, where he had laid him
self to take a drunken sleep. On his
pockets being examined all that was
found in them was string and a
jack-knife.
So a jack-knife began and ended
the fortune of that family
This is true story, and the father
who bought and sold rum no doubt
had plenty Of it in his house and on
his table. In giving and recommend
ing it to others his sons learned to
like it, and so it happened according
to the true proverb, What Is got on
the devils back goes under his belly"
The curse of God is on ill-gotten
gain, but "the blessing of the Lord,
it maketh rich, and He addeth no
sorrow with It," prov. 10:22).-

THE GREAT DESTROYER
SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT
THE VICE OF INTEMPERANCE.

-Four Great Warriors Take the Stand
and Give Evidence That Liquor
Dealing and Drinking Lead to
Crime Ind Misery.
Brief evidence in regard 70 the
crime of liquor dealing. and drinking
has been given by men Of prominence
in various walks of life as follows:
Major-General George B. McClel-
Ian: Had all the officers united In
setting the soldiers an example OF
total abstinence from intoxicating
liquors it would have been equal to
an addition of $4,000 men to the
armies of the United States"
Major-General "Stonewall" Jack
son: II never use it. I am more
afraid of It than of Yankee bullets"
General Won Moltke: Beer is
a far more dangerous enemy to Ger
many than all the armies of France"
Count Bismarck: THE prevalent
use of beer is deplorable. Beer drink
ing makes men stupid, lazy and in
capable
Baron Liebig, the distinguished
chemist: I'VE can prove with math.
ematical certainty that so much -four
as can lie on the point of table knife
is more nutritious than eight quarts
of the best Bavarian beet
Beer, wine, spirits, etc., furnish
no element capable of entering into
the composition Of the blood, muscu-
lar fibre, or any part which is the
seat of the vital principle"
David Livingstone, African explorer:
II have acted on the principle Of total
abstinence from alcoholic liquors dur
ing more than twenty years. My
opinion is that the most severe labors
or privations may be undergone with
out alcoholic stimulants.
Edward Payson Weston, pedes-
trian: "On my long walks during
over forty years in public life ex-
perience has taught me that nature
should not be outraged by the use Of
artificial stimulants. On my walk
from Portland, Me-, to Chicago, l
drank cold tea. On the recent walk
from Philadelphia to New York in
less than twenty-four hours I drank
milk and cold tea. On any of these
walks a single glass of wine would
have made me fail. I sometimes use
whisky on the soles of my feet"

strand. -
He holds my feet, He satisfies my soul,
He cheers me on with visions of His
love;
When I am sick or tired He makes me
whole,
And points me upward to His home
above.
