Miss Clara Barton, head of the Red
Cross society, has placed with a firm
at Kittrell, N. C., an order for 1,000,
000 strawberry plants. These plants
will be distributed among the fruit
growers of Texas who suffered so se
verely from the great ^September
storm.
Some at least of the great redwood
trees of California will be preserved,
the state having recently come into
possession of about 400 acres of red
wood forest through the will of the
late Col. J. B. Armstrong of Clover
dale, Sonoma county. The tract is
to be held as a public park.
The first authentic discovery of
traces of a prehistoric race in Alaska
was made recently by prospectors in
the foot-hills of Mount St. Elias. A
copper mine was unearthed which had
been worked ages ago. Kettles, tools,
spear-heads and other articles, made
in a crude manner from copper, were
found.
The President usually issues his
Thanksgiving day proclamation just
before the November elections. In that
way he saves himself from the shafts
of the jokers. Were It Issued after
election, a President's attitude of
thankfulness would be ascribed to his
owm party’s victory, it it had achieved
a victory. If defeated he would be ac
cused of "whistling to keep his cour
age up."
University chaperones are the latest
Viennese novelty. In consequence of
the riotous and Insulting behavior of
the male students when the women
tried to avail themselves of the newly
granted permission to attend lectures,
many mothers of women students have
registered for the university lectures
in order to accompany and protect
their daughters. The pioneer was the
opera singer, Arabella Szilagyl.
The house In Peekskill in which
Henry Ward Beecher wrote “Nor
wood,” has been opened for a free li
brary and reading room for Peekskill
people. This has been made possible
through the generosity of Dr. John Ne
well Tilden, who for many years was
a practicing physician in Peekskill and
later was principal of the military
academy there. The institution will
be known as the Beecher Free Reading
Room.
Ezary Baird 'of Fond~du Lac, Wis~!
and Miss Clara Elmer of Oshkosh made
arrangements to be married at the
home of Mrs. King in the former city
the other evening. When the justice
examined the marriage license he
found the five days’ limit required by
the instrument had not expired. The
wedding party waited until after the
midnight hour, the justice returning at
about 1 o’clock in the morning to tie
the knot.
Marriages in Hindostan are very
simple, and are usually arranged by
the parents of the principals. When
an alliance is agreed upon, the bride
and groom are brought together, and
perhaps see each other for the first
time. The bride playfully skips
toward the groom and seats herself
beside him. The priest ties a corner
of the bride’s veil to the groom’s
shawl, and this simple proceeding
makes them man and wife.
A young western attorney was re
cently asked why he had so strenuous
ly defended a woman who could not
pay him. “I can never forget," he re
plied. "that she lived at the end of
my long paper route when I was
a struggling college boy. More than
once in winter her kind heart prompt
ed her to rise very early to have a
cup of hot coffee ready for her news
boy, fearing lest he might perish with
the cold." Such acts defy commercial
"repayment" as much as mother-love
or sister influence. How does the old
Persian poet put it?
"In Time's fleeting river
The image of that little vine-leaf lay;
Immovably unquiet, and forever
It trembles, but it cannot pass away.”
A Paris newspaper gives the weight
of certain European sovereigns. In a
football line-up, Dorn Carlos of Portu
gal would he center. His towardness
or valor ought to be guaranteed by his
202 pounds. Ferdinand of Bulgaria.
177 pounds, and Oscar of Sweden, one
pound less, seem fitted for guards.
Kaiser Wilhelm's 160 pounds would
give him momentum and force as a
tackle. The czar would scarcely make
the team except as quarterback, for
he weighs only 121 pounds. The little
King of Spain, 99 pounds, is out of
the question, save to hold the sweater
of a player or to toss the coin for
choice of position. If monarchy could
tolerate the presence of a president of
a republic for fullback, the head of the
French government, with his 180
pounds, would natural}- be a candidate.
The exertion required to make a
comma does not count with a writer,
and the time involved Is inconsider
able. Not to insert a comma, however,
may lead to a large cost of time, and
an altogether disproportionate amount
of money. A recent suit in an impor
tant court was brought because the
omission of a comma left the meaning
of a document in doubt. The expense
which it entailed, which a stroke of
the pen would have saved, show-3 that
economy In punctuation may be at
least first cousin to extravagance.
TALMAGES SERMON.
BLESSINGS SHOWERED UPON
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Draws Comparisons Between Oar Own
and Other Countries—Our fluty to Ex
tend These Blessings to the World—
Nome Happy Conditions.
(Copyright. 1900, I.ouiM Klopsch, X. T.)
Washington, Dec. 16.—Dr. Talmage
preaches a discourse of Christian pa
triotism and shows the resources of
our country and predicts the time
when all the world will have the same
blessings. His two texts are Reve
lation xxi., 13, “On the south three
gates;” Psalm cxlvii., “He hath not
dealt so with any nation.”
Among the greatest needs of our
country is more gratitude to God for
the unparalleled prosperity bestowed
upon us. One of my texts calls us to
international comparison. What na
tion on all the planet has of late had
such enlargement of commercial op
portunity as is now opening before this
nation? Cuba and Porto Rico and the
Philippine Islands brought into close
contact with us.and through steamship
subsidy and Nicaragua canal, which
will surely be afforded by congress,
all the republics of South America will
be brought into most active trade with
the United States. "On the south three
gates.” While our next door neigh
bors, the southern republics and neigh
boring colonies. Imported from Euro
pean countries 3,000 miles away $675.
000.000 worth of goods in a year, only
$126,000,000 worth went from the Unit
ed States—$126,000,000 out of $675,000,
000, only one-fifth of the trade ours.
European nations taking the four fin
gers and leaving us the poor thumb.
Now all this is to be changed. There
is nothing but a comparative ferry be
tween the Islands which have recently
come under our protection, and only
a ferry between us and Bolivia, Peru,
Paraguay. Uruguay. Venezuela, Salva
dor, Nicaragua, Colombia, Costa Rica.
Equador. Brazil, while there are raging
seas and long voyage between them
and Europe. By the mandate of the
United States all that will be changed
through new facilities of transporta
tion.
The Nation'* Advertisements*
In anticipation of what is sure to
come. I nail on the front door of this I
nation an advertisement:
Wanted.—One hundred thousand 1
men to build railroads through South
America and the island of the sea un
der our protection.
Wanted.—A thousand telegraph op
erators.
Wanted.—One hundred million dol
lars’ worth of dry goods from the great :
cities of the United States.
Wanted.—All the clocks you can
make at New Haven and all the brains
you can spare from Boston and all the
bells you can mold at Troy and all the
McCormick reapers you can fashion
at Chicago and all the hams you can
turn out at Cincinnati and all the rail
road iron you can send from Pitts
burg and all the statesmen that you
can spare from Washington.
Wanted.—Right away, w'anted by
new and swifter steamers, wanted by
rail-train, lawyers to plead our cause.
Wanted.—Doctors to cure our sick.
Wanted.—Ministers to evangelize
our population.
Wanted.—Professors to establish our
universities.
“On the south three gates.” yea, a
thousand gates. South America and
all the islands of the sea approximate
are rightfully our commercial do
main, and the congress of the United
States will see to it that we get .vhat
belongs to us.
And then tides of .ravel will be
somewhat diverted from Europe to our
islands at the south and to the land of
the Aztecs. Much of the $125,000,000
yearly expended by Americans in Eu
rope will be expended in southern ex
ploration, in looking at some of the
ruins of the 47 cities which Stephens
found only a little way apart and in
walking through the great doorways
and over the miracles of mosaic and
along by the monumental glories of
another civilization, and ancient Am
erica will with cold lips of stone kiss
the warm lips of modern America, and
to have seen the Andes and Popocate
petl will be deemed as important as to
have seen the Alpine and Balkan
ranges, and there will be fewer people
spoiled by foreign travel, and in our
midst less of the poor and nauseating
imitation of a brainless foreign swell.
Home Happy Condition*.
Again, in this international compar
ison notice the happy condition of our
country as compared with most coun
tries. Russia under the shadow of the
dreadful illness of her great and good
emperor, who now, more than any man
in all the world, represents “peace on
earth, good will to men,” and whose
empress, near the most solemn hour
that ever comes to a woman's soul, is
anxious for him to whom she has
given hand and heart, not for political
reasons, but through old fashioned
love such as blesses our humbler
dwellings; India under the agonies of
a famine which, though somewhat lift
ed, has filled hundreds of thousands of
graves and thrown millions into or
phanage; Austria only waiting for her
genial Francis Joseph to die so as to
let Hungary rise in rebellion and make
the palace of Vienna quake with insur
rection; Spain in Carlist revolution
and pauperized as seldom any nation
has been pauperized; Italy under the
horrors of her king's assassination;
China shuddering with fear of dismem
berment, her capital in possession of
foreign nations. After a review of
the condition in other lands can you
find a more appropriate utterance In
regard to our country than the ex
clamation of the text, "He hath not
dealt to with any nation?"
Compare tjie autumnal report of
harvests in America this year and the
harvests abroad. Last summer I
crossed the continent of Europe twice,
and I saw no such harvests as are
spoken of In this statement. Hear it.
all you men and women who want
everybody to have enough to eat and
wear. I have to tell you that the
corn crop of our country this year Is
one of the four largest crops on record
—2,105.000.000 bushels! The cotton
crop, though smaller than at some
times, will on that account bring big
ger prices, and so cotton planters of
the south are prosperous. The wheat
fields have provided bread enough and
to spare. The potato crop, one of the
five largest eropson record—211,000.000
bushels! Twenty-two million two
hundred thousand swine slain, and yet
so many hogs left.
The Htory or Prosperity.
But now I give you the comparative
exports and imports, which tell the
story of national prosperity as noth
ing else can. Excess of exports over
imports, $544,400,000. Now let all pes
simists hide themselves in the dens
and caves of the earth, while all grate
ful souls fill the churches with dox
ology. Notice also that while other
countries are at their wits’ ends as to
their finances this nation has money
to lend. Germany, we are glad to see
you in Wall street. If you must bor
row money, wc have it all ready. How
much will you have? Russia, we also
welcome you into our money markets.
Give us good collateral. Meanwhile,
Denmark, will you please accept our
offer of $3,000,000 for the island of St.
Thomas? My hearers, there is no na
tion on earth with such healthy con
dition of finances. We wickedly waste
an awful amount of money in this
country, but some one has said it is
easier to manage a surplus than a
deficit.
Besides all this, not a disturbance
from St. Lawrence river to Key West
or from Highlands of New Jersey to
Golden Horn of the Pacific. Sectional
controversies ended. The north and
south brought into complete accord by
the Spanish war. which put the Lees
and the Grants on the same side, Ver
monters and Georgians in the same
brigade. And since our civil war we
are all mixed up. Southern men have
married northern wives, and northern
men have married southern wives, and
your children are half Mississippian
and half New Englander, and to make j
another division between the north
and the south possible you would have
to do with your child as Solomon
proposed with the child brought be
fore him for judgment—divide it with
the sword, giving half to the north and
half to the south. No, there is noth
ing so hard to split as a cradle. In
other lands there is compulsory mar
riage of royal families, some bright
princess compelled to marry some dis
agreeable foreign dignitary in order to
keep the balance of political power in
Europe, the ill-matched pair fighting
out on a small scale that which would
have been an international contest,
sometimes the husband having the bal
ance of power and sometimes the wife.
i
The Question of Wages.
Again, in this international compar
ison there is not a land whose wages
and salaries are so large for the great
mass of the people. In India four cents
a day and find yourself is good wages;
in Ireland, in some parts, eight cents
a day for wages; in England, $1 a day
good wages, vast populations not get
ting as much as that; in other lands,
50 cents a day and 25 cents a day,
clear on down to starvation and
squalor! Look at the great popula
tions coming out of the factories of
other lands and accompany them to
their homes and see what privations
the hard-working classes on the otlnr
side of the sea suffer. The laboring
classes in America are 10 per cent bet
ter off than those in any other coun
try under the sun, 20 per cent. 40 per
cent, 50 per cent. The toilers of hand
and foot have better homes and better j
furnished. ‘'How much wages do you
get?” is a question I have asked in
Calcutta, in St. Petersburg, in Berlin, !
in Stockholm, in London, in Paris, in
Auckland, New Zealand; in Sydney,
Australia, in Samoa, in the Sandwich
| Islands, so I am not talking an ab
straction. The stone masons and car
penters and plumbers and mechanics
and artisans of all kinds in America
have finer residences than the major
ity of the professional men in Europe.
You enter the laborer's house on our
side of the sea and you find upholstery
and pictures and instruments of music.
His children are educated at the best
schools. His life is insured, so that in
case of sudden demise his family shall
not be homeless. Let all American
workingmen knew that while their
wages may not be as high as they
would like to have them, America is
the paradise of industry.
KxpeiiMf** of (fovt'riiiuont.
It Is said that in our country we
have more dishonesty in the use of
public funds than in other lands. The
difference Is that in our country al
most every official has a chance to
steal, while in other lands a few peo
ple absorb so much that the others
have no chance at appropriation. The
reason they do not steal is because
; they cannot get their hands on it. The
governments of Europe are so expen
sive that after the salaries of the royal
families are paid there Is not much left
to misappropriate. The emperor of
Russia has a nice little salary of $8,
210,000. The emperor of Austria has
a yearly salary of $4,000,000. Victoria,
•Se queen, has a salary of $2,200,000.
The royal plate of St. James palace is
worth $10,000,000. There is a host of
attendants, all on salaries, some of
i them $5,000 a year, some $0,000 a year.
| Comptroller of the household, mistress
of the robes, captain of gold stick, lieu
tenant of silver stick, clerk of the
powder closet, pages of the back stairs.
( master of the horse, chief equerry,
equerries in ordinary, crown equerry,
hereditary grand falconer, vice cham
berlain. clerk of the kitchen, grooms
in waiting, lords in waiting, graonw «f
the court chamber, sergeant-at-arms,
barge master and waterman, eight
bed chamber women, eight ladies of
the bedchamber, and so on and so on.
All this is only a type of the fabulous
expense of foreign governments. All
this is paid out of the sweat and blood
of the people. Are the people satis
fied? However mueh the Germans like
William, and Austria likes Francis
Joseph, and England likes her glori
ous queen, these stupendous govern
mental expenses are built on a groan
of dissatisfaction as wide as Europe.
If it were left to the people of England
or Austria or Germany or Russia
w'hether these expensive establish
ments should be kept up. do you doubt
what the vote would be? Now. is it
not better that we be overtaxed and
the surplus be distributed all over the
land than to have it built up and piled
up inside the palaces?
Question of Monopolies.
Again, the monopolistic oppression
is less in America than anywhere else.
The air is full of protest because great
houses, great companies, great indi
viduals, are building such overtower
ing fortunes. Stephen Girard and
John Jacob Astor, stared at in their
time for their august fortunes, would
not now be pointed at in the streets of
Washington or Philadelphia or New
York as anything remarkable. These
vast fortunes for some imply pinched
nesa, of want for others. A growing
protuberance on a man’s head implies
illness of the whole body. These es
tates of disproportionate siza weaken
all the body politic. But the evil is
nothing with us compared with the
monopolistic oppression abroad. Just
look at the ecclesiastical establish
ments on the other side of the sea.
I>ook at those great cathedrals, built at
fabulous expense and supported by
ecclesiastical machinery, and some
times in an audience room that would
hold a thousand people twenty or thir
ty people gather for worship. The
pope’s income is 58.000,000 a year.
Cathedrals of statuary and braided
arch and walls covered with master
pieces of Rubens and Raphael and
Michael Angelo. Against all the walls
dash seas of poverty and crime and
filth and abomination.
Ireland today one vast monopolistic
visitation. About 45,000,000 people in
Great Britain, and yet all the soil
owned by about 32,000. Statistics
enough to make the earth tremble.
Duke of Devonshire owning 96,000
acres in Derbyshire, Duke of Richmond
owning 300,000 acres around Gordon
castle. Marcus of Bredalbane going
on a journey of 100 miles in a straight
line, all on his own property. Duke
of Sutherland has an estate wide
Scotland, which dips into the sea va
both sides. Unfortunate as we have
it here, it is a great deal worse there.
While making the international
comparison let us look forward to the
time which will surely come when all
nations will have as great advantage’s
as our own. As surely as the Bible 4s
true the whole earth is to be gardan
ized and set free. Even the climates
will change and the heats be cooled
and the frigidity warmed.
NATURE IS STRANCE.
Its Impulses Illustrated l>y Teamster
and Hungry IJog Episode.
Seated at the edge of the curbing
was a weary teamster, while near by
stood his horses crunching away at
their noon portion of oats, says the
Chicago News. Heaving a deep sigh,
the teamster slowiy ambled to the wa
gon and from under the seat drew forth
a good-sized dinner pail. Resuming
his seat upon the curb he mechanically
removed the cover from the lunch
burket and began to eat.
His mind was far away from his sur
roundings. and with an occasional
ominous shake of the head he mutter
ed the thoughts that burdened his
brain. The appearance of a lean, hun
gry-looking dog resting upon its
haunches directly in front of him at
tracted his attention. The animal
gazed longingly at each morsel of food
which passed the man's lips. The man
shied a bit of bread at the dog. who
devoured it eagerly. One piece of food
after another he tossed to the emaci
ated animal until the contents of pall
had disappeared, all but a tough and
dangerous doughnut. Breaking a
piece from the "sinker.’’ he bade him
eat it. The animal sniffed, but refused
to take it in its teeth. Thinking that
by tossing the morsel to the ground
the animal might eat it, he did so; but
the dog pushed it aside with his nose
and disdained to eat it. This act on
the part of the dog so angered him
that he arose slowly and landed a vi
cious kick in the dog's ribs, which sent
the poor animal into the gutter, where
it lay writhing in agony, "So you,
too, refused to take what I.would rob
myself of, after having sacrificed ev
erything else,” said the teamster,
with that remark and a parting kick
at the prostrate animal, he hastily re
moved the nosebags from the horses,
mounted to the seat and drove away.
Horne Shoes for Luck.
The custom of keeping horseshoes
for luck is said to have originated at
the time when in every home was the
picture of the patron saint. About the
head of the saint was the distinguish
ing halo, which was frequently made
of metal, sometimes the shape of a
horseshoe. When anything happened
to the picture the halo was still kept,
and remained fastened to the door, la
order that the saint's influence might
still prevail. As the bit of metal was
the most substantial part of the pic
ture, it soon became the custom to
, make a Charm of this part only, and
the torseshoe followed logically as a
nrevention against evil.

to Teacher* of Sunday School*—Child
hood and Youth of Christ.
No better Christmas lesson can he
taught to many classes than a general
view of the life of Christ as a whole,
showing why we should rejoice and why
the angels came from heaven to sing
their Gloria fn Excelsia when Jesus was
born Into this world. It was what he
did and taught hero that made his birth
a matter of so muc-h rejoicing.
I.et us use every means possible to im
press upon our pupils the life of Christ
and its meaning, how each act and mira
cle and parable and teaching helped to
show him to be the Savior we need, the
true Savior of mankind.
There are many forms of reviewing,
and any one of them can tie made effec

Some give up the whole morning
service to the review, and it is
made very ef

Nome City I* DooW
Nome City will not be loq ved. It
may be destroyed or it, m be de
serted. As for this last, there is no
excuse for a permanent city here.
There is no harbor, no wharfs, no
piers, no way of unloading vessels save
by lighters. It is a dangerous coast to
be on in a northwest gale, as witness
the loss of three staunch ships in such
a gale but a month ago—the Dollar,
Resolute and Merwin. Nearly a score
of lives were lost, and much valuable
goods. As soon as the fold deposit is
exhausted hereabouts the city will :»e
deserted unless further gold discov
eries are made inland that will call
for a base of supplies here.
o •
HU Conception of Faith.
The teacher was trying to communi
cate to the juvenile class an idea of
faitli and to better illustrate it she
held up an apple and said: "If I were
to tell you there were no seeds in this
apple you would believe me without
further proof, would you not?" "Yes,
ma’am.” answered the class in chorus.
“Well, that's faith,” said the teacher.
The next day in order to test their
recollections of the lesson she asked:
"Who can tell me what faith is?" "I
can,” promptly answered a small
urchin. "It's an apple what ain’t got
no seeds in it.”
(iolng to Begin.
No good work that can l>e com
menced at once should ever be post
poned. Men sometimes compromise
with their consciences by promising to
abandon some pet vice at a future day.
We have no faith in post-dated prom
ises of reform. Persons who make
them may think they are in earnest,
but they deceive themselves. Why not
resolve and execute simultaneously?
If a habit is evil and dangerous, give
it no quarter. Slay it on the spot.—
