An Incident Of the Land League Asi-
tation In ireland.
One morning during the Land league
agitation Mr.. Parnell left Dublin by
the early mail train for Roscommon
to address a meeting. On arriving in
the town he received a telegram from
Dublin which ran:
o'clock. Postpone meeting till l arrive.
HEALY.
Mr.. Parnell was pleased to learn that
7. NJ. Healy, NJ. P. was coming down.
Delighted, too. We're the local promo
tiers of the demonstration, and the meet
ing was gladly postponed for a few
hours.
At O'clock the railway station and
its approaches were thronged with
people with bands and banners, and
the train from Dublin steamed in
amid terrific cheering for Tim Healy.
The train pulled up. Il carriage door
opened, and the local reception com
mittee rushed to it, when out stepped
'Healy." but it was not T. NJ. Healy.
NJ. z. 1t was w. Wallace Healy. a
we'll known reporter on the staff of
the Irish Times.
He had been assigned to the Roscom-
mon meeting. had missed the mail
train. and it was most important that
his paper should have report of Mr..
Parnell's speech; hence the telegram.

ALASKA GROWN TO

1t is generally conceded that General
Greedy knows as much. If not more than
any other man about Alaska. He
states unequivocaly that agriculture is
long-neglected opportunity. and tina,
the man who takes up 4 homestead there
now IN either the SuSitna. Tanana or
Copper River valleys is laying the foun-
dation for a comfortable fortune. As
the land laws with regard to homestead
ing now stand. the path of the settler
is made both easy and profitable and the
markets are opening up rapidly. While
mining was unquestionabiy the medium
for introducing Alaska to the nations,
the bulk of its wealth in the future will
be drawn from its coal. its farms. lis

General Greedy has set forth his sub
Ject well. and shows to what extent the
country that can produce luscious straw
berries in FIVE weeks as far north as the
Arctic Circle, can be depended upon to
furnish returns. The Handbook of
Alaska" will go far to removing the
silly beliefs that the country is land OF
snow and ice, for. as is shown, it is men
toned as an incident that Juneau. the
capital, is in the same latitude as Edin-
burgh, and that the agricultural cond-
tons are precisely equivalent. and in
some cases superior TO Norway and
Sweden. Also in many cases the coun-
try is vastly ahead of the United States
in its development. for it is dotted with
wireless telegraph stations: is building
railroads at the rate of miles a day
is making permanent roads as fast as
possible: is attracting settlers in hordes
and incidentally Offering under the in
telligent supervision of private capital
such opportunities as arc generally only
dreamed of. Private capital has alrcad,
made vast new ocean port, Cordova,
at cost of millions. and is pushing
railroad to the interior with giant
strides. So far the government has been
content to sit by and watch some one
else do the work.

power and absorbing interest and dis

.~pic.-Home missions. THE battle OF
the slum. Luke xiv. la-23
There is no more grave or serious
missionary problem before the Chris
tian church today than that Of carry
ing the gospel to the slum districts Of
our large cities. When We face the
problem Of the foreigners segregated
in our large cities. our industrial and
agricultural centers. it seems to be q
great one. but it is as nothing COM
pared with the reformation and re-
demption of those who have become
the Sums. The difficulties involved In
successful Christian work In the slums
are colossal and almost insurmount-
able. Were it not that ''ali things are
possible with God" man would be COM
PEELED to give up in despair in the face
Of the gigantic difficulties presented.
When We think OF what needs to be
done aud how little Is being or eau he
done the heart grows sick and We feel
like exclaiming with Paul. who is
sufficient for these things" Many Of
the victims Of the vices Of Stun life
do not want to give it up. and what
can be done for those who desire to
have nothing done for them: Thou
sands perhaps would like to break
away from their foul surroundings. but
how can they? And il they did where
would they so and what would they
do? Would even the Christian church
he, int 20 in,
try to help them upward? SAD to say.
there are possibly few churches that
would do SO. Into what home would
one stained with the life Of the Sums
be received even to do the most mental
labor? The gospel is being preached
to many OF them, especially In theaters
on Sabbath nights after the church
services are over
Many profess conversion. and many
are converted. but their future is full
of darkness aud almost despair. The
men may meet with some help and en-
couragement. but the women have very
small prospects of reclo nation. and
many of them. it must be said. Of
dire necessity drift back into the old
life OF vice and sin. Houses Of refuge
for fallen women reclaim and restore
many. but few indeed In comparison to
the numbers involved, and even then
the places made vacant are soon flied
by new victims.
The duty OF doing something rests
upon Christianity and Christian work
ers. 1t is easy to criticise municipal
governments for not keeping large
cities free from saloons and gambling
dens and other resorts OF vice, but the
great as those before the church. They
might do more than they do perhaps
and probably would if they received
more encouragement from good citi-
zens instead Of so much severe con-
demnation. But what they can do
they should do. for they not only rep
resent the law. hut also upon them
rests the duty OF enforcing the law.
By Christian people one or two things
can and should be done. 1t has been
well said that Ian ounce Of prevention
is worth a pound Of cure" Could not
Christian people save many from the
slums! Ard. il SO. ought they not to
