The Rev. Chauncey L. Foote, a

the movement.

Foote.
ut requires very little effort on
anyone's part to see where the gre 1T
throngs of people who should be in
church go on Sunday. The streets on
the Sabbath night are crowded. and
from what l hear every club in the
city does a capacity business on this
night. In contrast are the empty
pews of the churches.
There Is lack of interest in 60

be worked up to where it was in the
old days of the Pilgrim fathers.
"If proper attention is paid to the
strangers who will come to the

Rev. Mr.. Cults Delighted.
The Rev. w. Lee Cults, of the In

said:

There are thousands of people in

the power to deal out death or serious
misfortune. In fact, some of the most
pious men of Italy have in the past
been accredited with this power. Pope
Plus TX, the predecessor of Leo XIII,
who was the best and greatest of
modern popes and after whom the
present supreme pontiff took his
name, was generally credited with
having the "evil eye"
Despite the deep rooted conviction

A MASTER OF THE BIBLE.

One of the most astonishing mne.
monic feats on record is recorded by
John Wesley. 81 knew u man about
20 years ago." writes Wesley, "whc
was SO thoroughly acquainted with
the Bible that if he was questioned
as to any Hebrew word in the Ole
or any Greek word in the New Testa
ment, he would tell, after a LITTLE
pause, not only how often the one OIL
the other occurred in the Bible, but
also what it meant in every place
His name was Thomas Walsh. Such
a master of Bible knowledge ! never
saw before, and never expect to sec
again. Walsh had close rival in
Macaulay, who, according to Jane,
Stephen, could repeat "all Demosthen
es by heart. and Milton, as well as
a great part of the Bible."--Londof

THE COW.

Of all the animals designed by ma.
ture the COW is one of the most sue.
cessful. She is a neat, durable ami.
NAL of moderate size, and fitted with
large number of very ingenious con
veniences. In fact, the evidences are
that the COW was constructed a long
time after man was invented and that
she embodies the result of much more
experience.
The cow is toeless, and uses instead
cleverly designed cloven hoof, which
is not afflicted with corns or bun
ions. Because of the fact that she
does not need shoes the COW is able
to afford four feet. With these she
can travel twice as fast as an ordin-
ary man, and can also eat at any
angle of so degrees on slippery hill
side with perfect comfort.
The COW has no upper teeth. Those
mortals who have spent their nights
carrying double set of insurgent
teeth around a bedroom and their
days earning money enough to have
these teeth yanked out and replaced
have cause to envy the COW with
great fury.
The COW also has four stomachs.
This enables her to have indigestion
in one stomach and yet to limp along
very licely on three cylinders through
a DISCOURSE dinner. Because of her
four stomachs the COW is also able
to eat all day and far into the night.
The COW is also able to swallow her
food in punches and to chew it after
ward. 1t is disgusting to think that
nature has wasted this magnificent
arrangement on cow, while thou
sands of American business men are
turning yellow and shrivelling up
with dyspepsia for want of it.
The COW is also able to carry her
milk supply through the hottest sum
mer without ice. And yet in spite
of all these improvements and facil-
tiles the COW is not rich
In fact, she hasn't cent to her
name. Barring the fact that she is
worth 25 cents pound when con-
verted into porterhouse steaks, dried
beef and soupbones, she is bank
rupt, and has to depend for food all
winter upon the efforts Of hired
man with pitchfork.
The COW is like too many humans.
She is magnificently equipped for
life, but she declines to worry. Even
when COW strays upon railroad
track and faces footing locomotive
she maintains her placid disposition
and her sweetness Of temper.
But perhaps this is because she
knows that whatever the engine does
to her will increase her value from 25
cents to $3.50 4 pound.

HOPE IS ABANDONED

NUMBER OF DEAD IN DAWSON MINE NOW PLACED

AND find NO lIVNG--72 BODIES RECOVERED
United Press.

DAWSON, N. NJ, Oct 25.-At
noon today seventy-two corpses had
been recovered The latest estimates
of the mine officials are to the eff
feet that 263 are dead This is based
on the belief that 2S9 men were work
ing in the mine at the time of the
explosion.
j. C.. Roberts, superintendent of
the government mine rescue car, said:
Our crews this morning explored
the entire mine. The gas in the west
workings is so heavy that we aband-
oned all hope of finding anyone liv-
ing. All we can do now is to remove
the dead, which will be a long, ted
ious job as the mine is 1rightfully
wrecked. Let everyone give up hope
of any more being saved"
1T is hardly possible man in the
west workings could live over a min
ute after the explosion" said ex-Sup.
erintendent Smith THE conclusion
was the most terrific that have ever
known in u mine explosion, and if
the concussion did not kill the men
the gas waves following it did"
Funerals of the mine victims were
being held all yesterday afternoon
and this morning.
The bodies of Superintendent Nc
Dermott and Henry McShane, mining
engineer, are unfound.
The body Of VIM. Morgan, 65, who
lived through three similar explosions,
was found leaning against the mine
wall with his hands folded, and lump
of coal between his teeth.
The rescuers have been reporting
many ghastly sights They say the
corpses are strewn everywhere and
that many are notifying
