S. s. Korea (at sea). May 4. 1911,
Around the world from Washington to
Washington, taking the westward course,
is a pleasant task. Some may think It
big undertaking, and 1t is; but we
hope to accomplish it with no more fear
from accident than IL We remained in
Washington.
Statisticians have figured that the
! safest place from danger is on the high
seas. AS 50 per cent of our travels will
be by sea transportation, the degree Of
danger ought to be reduced to mini
| mum.
Leaving Washington on the Sunset
route, We speeded across the old battle
fields of Virginia, the cotton and tobacco
fields Of the two Carolinas, through the
important cities Of Georgia and Alabama,
and on the second morning drew into the
Crescent City and enjoyed five hours
opportunity of seeing some Of the sights
of this metropolis of the Southland.
Crossing the broad Mississippi on
great ferryboat, we resumed our travels
through the land Of cane, rice, and picka-
ninnies-Louisiana. More than twenty
four hours were consumed in crossing
the great plains and famous oil ''gusher"
territory OF Texas, crossing the Pecos
River on the scenic high bridge Of the
a company of Uncle Sans soldier boys.
From El Paso we travelled within a
stones throw Of the Mexican border line,
catching sight OF many of the troopers
patrolling the frontier.
= New Mexico and Arizona. with It's sage
brush. cactus. and miraaRs, were not
altogether uninteresting. especially the
latter. for a sight of one OF these re-
markable mirages Of the desert Is we'll
worth the trip.
After crossing the Colorado river and
passing the wonderful Salton Sea, lying
far below the level of the sea, we en-
tered the beautiful lands made famous
by the golden story Of the orange.

A stop Of four hours was made in the

resident told US, would reach the million
mark by 1920. Up the beautiful coast
line. through Santa Barbara, San Luis

Jose, was fitting climax to q trip across
the continent, and then the train drew
into the earthquake city, soon to change

All Of the stewards and deck-hands OF

OF Cinnamon. After nearly three weeks

perior in every respect to the stewards
on the Atlantic liners.
After the first day our table steward.
Immediately set to work to anticipate
them. Dressed in pure white, their long
queus hanging down their backs. they
present quite an unusual appearance as
compared with European stewards. AS
for cleanliness, daintiness. and prompt
ness, they are simply marvellous.
Nearly every evening a stage is set up
on the lower deck and Chinese plays are
given by natives. In addition to an audi
ence of several hundred of their compa-
triots, there is always q fair attendance
from among the cabin passengers. The
actors are arrayed in gaudy costumes,
while the musicians beat their tomtoms
with an earnestness that Is almost deaf
ening.
Gambling is carried on without any re-
strictions by the Chinese, some days as
many as eight games being in full blast
at the same time. Some of the cabin
passengers have tried their luck at these
games, but in nearly every case the
Cinnamon get the long end Of t.
There are all kinds OF amusements on
deck and in the music room. The usual
deck games are indulged in during the
day, while there Is plenty Of talent on
board to entertain the passengers with
music in the evening.
Fire Drills Held.
The fire drills, held once a week. are
most exciting events. The passengers
are encouraged to appear on the boat
deck and witness the lowering Of the
boats, as well as to learn how to put

tion Of the small boats, each boat bearing

SUNDAY CLOSING
Law TROUBLE
Bismarck Is Having a Sort Of
Free Show Over the
Matter

Bismarck, n. D., March 29.-North
Dakota's new Sunday closing law is
causing all kinds of excitement in
the city of Bismarck with C. W.
Temple, proprietor of a local moving
picture house, as the center of inter-
est. He has already been arrested
twice on charges of violating the
law, having been discharged on one
allegation and with another COM
plant still pending in which there
viii be a hearing tomorrow. A pub
lie meeting in local church at which
several pastors Of the city delivered
rather interesting and unusual adj
dresses is another feature of the
movement.
The new law was passed by the
legislative assembly that recently ad-
journed, and it is directed against
moving picture houses and practical
ly all lines of business and amuse-
ment on the Sabbath. The first Sum
day after the law became effective
Temple was arrested for violating it,
but in jury trial he was acquitted.
The second charge, on which he was
arraigned yesterday, was continued
till tomorrow, Temple again making
demand that he be given trial by
jury
The two charges that have been
lodged come up on alleged violations
on two different Sundays, aud as
Temples place was open Sunday of
this week also, it is anticipated that
there viii be another warrant issued.

er, and few who have crossed his
rules of government would intimate
that he has ever been. He went into
power on wave OF revolution such
as, now threatens his lengthy reign,
and he Is naturally suspicious of that
sore Of thing, and inclined to sit down
on it as hard as possible. Mexican
jails are disgraceful affairs in these
days Of prison reform. but reform OF
this or other types have never been
very popular in Mexico.
However, there is some reason to
doubt that a revolutionary victory
would help matters much. The win
ners would be Mexicans with the
Spanish cruelty Of centuries still
coursing through their veins, and he
redity is such force that 1t isn't

hasn't added greatly to the peace and
happiness of the island. And Mexico
Is different: Diaz,as bad and cruel as
he is, is better than Alfonso, being
smarter and more progressive: man
who got there instead Of being born
there. Whatever else he has done, he
has given his country more develop
ment and prosperity that is ever
knew before. A successful revolu-
ton might only result in drifting back
to the good old days when revolution
was the principal occupation of the
people. as it still is in Central Amer
lea. And, regardless of the dispatch
es, we know too much of war to be-
lieve that this cruelty is all one-sid-
ed. Whoever started it, revenge is
common to all men, and men forget
their Sunday school lessons in hur-
ry when they gaze upon their own

time, with the exception that there
are few arguments to be made. and
these will be made and the matter
finally submitted within a few days.
Billings county people are still somc-

human history, that the good God
has done it. But we can and do aver
that Every good gift and every per-
feet gift Is from above"
From Above!" What a saying
that is! From the remote space,
from the empyrean heights, from the
crests of all activity-from God.
Yes; 1t is he who hath made us.
and not We ourselves. God is our
King of old: the half that is done
upon earth, he doeth 1t himself" He
has created Us and he sustains us,
for a glorious accomplishment. He
has bestowed upon US precious gifts
after precious gifts-reason, aztec
ton. moral sense spirituality all
that lifts above vegetables and brutes
And we, receiving such things, JOY
ously confess: Every good gift and
every perfect gife-''everything com
plete in itself and everything lovely
in itself-"is from apove;" there is
not discovery, manufacture, an
invention, but 1t is the kindness of
God. 1t is the confession which es-
tablishes the true Joy in all the beau
ty and glory of life-that they are
not by chance, or by our own doing,
but are the benefactions of our Faith
er in Heaven.
How different is the effect OF the
landscape upon one who simply sees
1t as pleasing but haphazard thing,
from that upon one who regards it
as painted by an artist thinking of
the delight it would give!
How different is the sentiment, as
to virtue and self denial, of one who
takes the moral as the higher ANNA!
accomplishment, from that of one
who finds in them the divine spirit
kindling divine fire!
Yes; to say "The good God has
done it," of everything sweet and
everything sad-when neither sweet
ness or sadness are the evanescent
effects of sin-this is to live a life
of serene and joyous days.
And 80 it comes about that, If we
would only recognize it, our finest
duty in this world is thanksgiving.
For of man it has been most truly
said: HE and he alone is natures
purest. her spokesman, her mediator.
1t is his part in the midst Of her
sciences to lift up in her name the
voice of thanksgiving
