Revivals Closed.

The revival meetings which have
been in progress for the last two
weeks at the Methodist church were
brought to a successful close Sun
day evening. The church was
thronged long before the hour set
for the service to begin and great
interest was manifested by all
present. The music by a special
quartette and the excellent chorus
so successfully organized by Prof.
Alexander, were features of this the
final meeting. DR.. Gable was at
his best and spoke with great feel
ing and effect. At the close of the
service a meeting of testimony was
held, after which the many friends
of DR.. Gable and Prof. Alexander
pressed about to bid them farewell.
During their stay in River Falls the
two evangelists have made many
fast friends, and not few expressed
the regret that the meetings could
not be continued for at least another
week. AS a result Of DR.. Cables,
efforts about one hundred and ten
conversions were made. A special
meeting was held Monday evening
at the Congregational church where
the various pastors met the converts
and discussed church preferences
with them.
DR.. Gable departed for his home
at Lanark, ILL.,, Monday morning,
whittier he was summoned by the
severe illness of his wife and child.
Prof. Alexander left the. same day
for his home in Reedsburg, Wis.

Between Two Fires.

1t is we'll known fact that the
speaker of the House Of Representa-
tiveS is held responsible for the sins
of commission and omission in
dulged in by that legislative body.
Becauseof this Uncle Joe Cannon"
who wants to be President, is Just
now in an unfortunate dilemma.
Some time ago Congress passed a
law to go into effect March 4th, fix
ing the maximum time which rail-
way telegraphers can be on duty at
eight hours in each twenty-four.
The railway companies are not
ready to comply with the law, and
have looked to the Interstate
Commerce Commission for an eX-
tension of time. This the Commits
sion declines to grant, having no
authority for SO doing. Failing to
obtain the relief asked of the Com
mission, the companies have APP
pealed to Congress-which means
Speaker Cannon-to pass law ex-
tending the time at which the statute
in question shall go into effect. AS
the speaker practically has the
power to secure the adoption or re-
lection of measures brought before
the House this particular eight-hour
law is causing him a great amount
of trouble, coming as it does at a
most inopportune time. Should he
secure the extension for which the
railways are clamoring the great
army of telegraph operators and
their friends will cast upon his Presi-
Dental aspirations a "wet blanket
so thoroughly soaked with their dis
approval that he cannot be thought
Of as even a compromise candi
date" On the other hand, should
he decline to grant THE relief de-
manded in the complaint" the rail
road people-and there are lot of
them-would crush the very life out
of his Presidential ".bee," Poor
"Uncle Joel" The great power
which he now possesses seems des-
tined to contribute toward prevent
ing him from acquiring still greater
power.

Few people are probably aware
that the month of February has not
always been in the calendar, since
calendars were. In the reign of
Numa January was placed at the
head of the months and February at
the end, and this arrangement was
followed till 452 B. c., when the de-
cemvirs placed February after jan
uary instead of before it. 1t is the
shortest month and yet it has the
most holidays-the 18th is Lincoln S
Birthday, the 18th is Valentine S
Day, The 22d is Washington's Birth
day. 1t also has two great feast
days in church circles, the I'd, Candle
mas Day, or the Feast of the Purifi-
cation of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
and the oath which is ST. Matthias
Day. This year, known to learned
men as bissextile year, to most OF
us as leap-yeer, the month has also
another day to give the sun rest
in its race to beat the calendar.
