LETTER NO. 2, WILLARD A. JENKINS.
Funchal, Madeira, Feb. 25.-
Speaking of steamships, reminds me
of the experience meeting | heard
about. One old brother got up and
said, "Brethering, Pm aboard the
old ship O. Zion, and she's mon
strous ship. She's ship of $4,000
boss power, runnin' at the rate of
fifteen knots an hour, an soon she'll
steam into the.harbor of the blessed. "
Another old brother arose and
said. "Brethering, I'm on that same
old ship, but she pears to me to be
a bigger ship than that. She's a
ship of 20, 900 boss power ans run
MIN at the rate of 20 knots an hour,
and soon, ali, soonl she'll drop her
anchor in the harbor of the
blessed"
Then an old woman arose. She
said, Pm bound for that same ken
try, but / amt agoin' by no steam
ship. For forty year I've been a
takin' it afoot, an 1t pears now as
| will continue to foot it; an if the
bretherings what's goin' by steam
don't mind, they're a gOin' to bust
their bilers."
Sight seeing has begun. The won
der is if one small head will hold all
that is to be learned. What change
from water, water everywhere. The
island of Madeira Is delightful
surprise. The island has a popula-
ton of 10000, $4,000 of these being
in Funchal, the capital. The island
belongs to Portugal. This island
was once the home of Columbus. He
married his wife here, Menina Per-
estrello, whom he met at a school in
Portugal. Cupid drove the arrow
to the right spot, and Christopher

went to the mission, or the church
members who went to the dance at
the gambling resort? A man with
one eye and a half an ounce of brains
could answer that question.
A card club has been organized
aboard, presided over by a
preacher. Do you wonder that he
is in the list of mot wanted" in his
denomination, and is without a
charge ?Certainly he is not wanted,
and yet he has as mu III right before
God and man to play cards as any
church member in his denomination.
A dancing club also has been or
ganized. The enthusiasm of visiting
the land where Jesus lived and died,
the land where was born our blessed
gospel, seems to have settled in their
heels rather than in their hearts.
On board a great ship with hun
dreds of passengers, you find, as you
will find in any community, people
protesting Christ's name, who are
like the trail of the fellows snake,
He wired in and wired out,
And left the locker on in doubt,
Whether the snake was coming in,
Or whether he was going out"
But for Christian to live COM
promised life, is hard on God.

The Island Of Madeira
ANeglected Paradise.

followed Menina to her beautiful
sland h ONE, and married her. On
the street where his house stood is a
modern building with tablet bear
ing his name.
The island is only 1898 miles, ris-
ing in some portions to a height of
5000 feet. The streets of the city
are narrow and paved with small,
round stones. The means of street
travel is the bull car, a two seated
vehicle on runners like sled, drawn
by oxen.
A steam cog road carries you two
miles up the mountain, and a kind
of tOboggan, guided by a swift run
ner, brings you down at speed of
five minutes to the mile. l felt very
much towards the two old men who
guided my toboggan like Mark
Twain felt towards his little donkey
in Egypt, when he decided to walk
awhile and let the donkey ride. An
other means of street travel is the
"rede, kind of hammock carried
by two robust natives.
This is country where you can
feel rich. 1t takes 1 900 refs to make
a dollar, and a 20 reis piece is fully
as large as our half dollar. The peo-
pie are poor. Beggars abound, yet
from the spler did gardens, vine
yards and cane fields, you are con-
WINGED that the islanders are not al
together indolent. On the whole,
they seem to be thrifty people.
This is Catholic stronghold, and
as in all these eastern Catholic coun-
tries, religion is little more than a
Sixteenth century superstition.
There is a Methodist mission here
under the leadership of DR.. Smart,
but he tells me that it was difficult

ing, every meeting he holds is vio-
latiOn of law. The mission is simply
tolerated, not recognized by law. 1t
was my privilege, along with few
others of the cruise, to speak at this
mission. 1t was the first time ever
spoke word for Jesus, when / was
really breaking the law to do it.
The missionaries and the native
members of the mission gave spe-
cial service for the large number Of
visitors, but only about twenty of
US were there. But what feast
we hadl The ball at the Casino, one
of the most notorious gambling re-
sorts this side the Atlantic, drew a
larger number. | suppose these
Christian pilgrims on their way to
the land where Jesus lived, thought
they could do the people more good
by giving a ball at the Casino, show
ing them how little difference there
is in the real Christian article in
America, and IN this devil possessed
island across the sea, and by lending
a bit of real Christian responsibility
to this notorious resort of sin.
God pity the preacher whose
church is composed of such men and
women at home. When see poor
little preacher fretting, and pulling,
and putting. wearing his life out try
ing to make the work go with that
sort OF going to curse his work, and
break his heart, am reminded of
the story of the Irishman's team.
He had a kicker, butter, a singer
and a stinker-a mule. billy goat,
a bumblebee and skunk. He got
his load to market, but couldn't get
his team in. couldn't help but ru-
inmate, as Bill Arp would say, a
little. If the old ship should go

STREET SPRINKLING
At Expense of PropertyOw
ers to be Voted On.

The Henderson Cleaner is going
to take the sense of the people, by
ballot, as to whether the streets of
the city should be sprinkled during
the coming summer at the expense
of the property owners.
Last summer the streets of Hop
kinsville needed sprinkling, more
than any previous year. The ques-
ton as to who ought to pay the bills
is hard one to solve.
