Canadian Authorities Make Satisfac-

Tokio, Jan. 15.-The Canadian i'm migration question has been settled. The Japanese government has receiv- ed notice that the report of Rodolphe Lemieux, Canadian minister of labor. Is entirely satisfactory to the Canadian government and that it would accept in good faith the verbal promise of the restriction of the emigration of la borers, relying upon the Japanese government to enforce the regula- tions which are outlined in it's memo randum.
 Nothing now remains except the ex- change of mem morandums between the two governments.

They don't know him.

He married a daughter of Senator Grimes, who outraged Ben Butler and pleased Jus titia by voting against the conviction of Andrew Johnson knowing full well that Ben Butler could turn him out of public life--that is the way virtue was rewarded in reconstruction days, but that Justitia could only smile at him and make him self-satisfied.

Where post exchanges are situated
in a prohibition state it is considered
entirely safe to prohibit the sale in

THE STORY.

II HE prophet Elisha returned from
! Ramoth-Gilead disappointed and
perplexed. He had gone thither under
the confident expectation of amounting
Jehu king over Israel, but no word
had come from God directing such &C.
ton. He had waited impatiently for
several days looking for Divine light
and leading, but no Divine message
came, and at last he had returned
home. rs we have said, disappointed
and deeply perplexed.
Years before when Elijah was about
to be taken from him into heaven he
had laid the solemn charge upon him
to anoint Jehu king over Israel. TELLING
him how the Lord had spoken to him
in the mountain and had told him that
Jehu was to become king In the room
of Ahab.
At that time Jehu was q mere. youth
promising, to be sure, but only be.
ginning his career in the army-and
Elijah had understood that the time
had not arrived to anoint Jehu. When
King Ahab had been killed in the
battle with the king of Syria, the
prophet Elijah had not been surprised
or disappointed when Ahab's son
Ahaziah had come to the throne, not.
withstandiag the fact that the young
warrior Jehu had returned from the
battle with a glorious record for valor,
and had proved himself a leader of
great ability. Elijah had felt that the
time had not yet come when the word
of the Lord was to be fulfilled by the
amounting Of Jehu.
But when the wicked, UBIQUITOUS
reign Of two years had ended in the
ignominious death of Ahaziah as the
result of his fall during drunken rev.
elry, and Joram. another son Of Ahab,
had come to the throne without any
apparent opposition. Elijah had indeed
been disappointed.
1t was then that he had spoken to
Elisha Of the commission God had
laid upon him to anoint Jehu king
over Israel. and only q few short
weeks after that he had been snatched
