A Oooil Minister of .IP IIM Christ. The itov. Ur. Cooley , who Is so soon to sever his connection with the First llaptlst church In this city , preached a very original sermon yesterday at the morning hour to an unusually Inrgo congregation. The church has accepted the resignation of Its pastor , who bus been with them so long ; nuu labored so earnestly for the upbuilding of the church and people , and now they lind themselves confronted with the Important duty ot'select- ; tig u man who will 1111 the vacancy. Dr. C'ooloy's sermon ws In spaclil reference to- this duty , and pictured the kliul of a pastor most needed for the work how and the strcngthcningof Christ's kingdom on earth. I'ho shcnkcr found his text in I. Tim. iv.,0 , : "If Hum put the brethren in remembrance nf these things thou shall bo it goott minister of lesus Christ , nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrines , whci-iunto thou liast attained. " Hvcry body of men must have good leader * if they uttaln their highest efllclonoy , or ac complish any high and worthy purpose. An irmy must have n who general , u skillful commander , otherwise its energies will bo wasted , and Its sncrlllces and heroism will bo compiiMlivoly fruitless. Abouvof liborers must have n good overseer la order that their work may bj In u high degree productive. But nowhere Is there seen a greater neces sity for It than in the church of Christ. Lhrist ! instituted apostles for the establish ment of his kingdom on o\rth , nnd these or- dalnod ciders In every church which tlioy roundeil. The names of these olllcura signify their work. In chutvlies composed largely of Jews , the highest olllecr was designated elder , indicative of his ago and experience. I'aul cautions Timothy against being "a iiovlco , loit being lifted up with pride ho full into coiiilc'iniiiitlon of the devil. " In churches composed of Gentiles , the pas tor was called a bishop or overseer. And tlio liislory of Christianity shows that churches liavo prospered or declined very niach ac cording to the wisdom and [ fewer of leadership - ship in the pastor. A wise and faithful pastor will lead the church from victory to victory and make her a power for good in tbo community ; while an unfaithful , injudicious , bad m-in in the ministry will divide the church , squander her moral resources and make her an object of reproach. It is a critical time In the history of a church when she must select n pastor ; her future will largely bo determined by the choice she m ikes. In the selection of a ius- tor great care and circumspection should bo oxcrciseJ , and it should bo the tlnnj of fer vent prayer for illvlno guidance , r.ivorit- isni , prejudice , aelllshnnd personal considera tions should ho banUho I from all hearts. Any ono of experience can point out previ ously ItonrNldnir clnitxhes which have been well nigh wrecked and their cftleicncy put back for years by nn unwise choice. In se lecting a pastor there are two oxtromaj to bo avoided. The first Is that of too groit huitc. A prepossessing appou-.inco , n captivating address , polished manners , a taking sermon are not enough to furnish groiind fern n choice of a pastor. These are at times but the exterior of n superficial character , the veneering of an un sound and worthless man. On thu other hand a determination not to bo pleased with a good minister of the Lord ; u feeling that wo show our great superiority In not being easily suited , that wo will not call anyone tote to the pistorato unlojsho is a most extraor dinary man is to bo guarded against. This disposition does not become the disciples of the meek and lowly Jesus , and is most offen sive to the Master. An extraordinary pastor needs an extraordinary church to preserve th fitness of things , and these extraordinary men and churches are few and far between. 0 for humility and modesty , "not thinking of themselves moro highly than they ought to think , " on the part of both ministers and churches. Suffer a few words of admonition from ono who loves you and who has studied your needs for over live years , and who wishes your highest prosperity in the years to come. 1 have no ono to suggest to you , no friend whom I wish to step into my place ; but I do most earnestly pray that you may be dhected by dfvino wisdom , that your future pastor may bo ono whom Uod will approve and honor and whoso labors ho will abundantly bless. My object is to suggest such consideration as will aid you In making a wise choice. What is your ideal of u good minister of Christ ! Among the essenthls of n good minister which cannot po safely ignored we note : First , That ho is ot good repute , well spoken of Loth by those without nnd within the church. Without n good reputation and the confidence of the community ho can do bntllttloif any good , However upright ho may bo before ( Jed , liowovcr pure in his life and however ardfiit his desires to benefit his fellow men , inilo-s they believe in him , his influence with men will bo slight. This reputation relates lirst to his charac ter. Ho must not only bo pure la heart and life , but ho must bo generally , I might add universally , bc-llovod to bo so. If ho Is only prudent and discreet In his relations in so ciety no broith of scandal will attach to Ids iiunio. Accusations and false reports against a true , dlscroot minister ot Christ fall harm less at his leot. No ono believes them. Again , a minister must have the reputation of promptness in mooting his pecuniary obli gations. There are otherwise goo.l pastor.s who always contract debts in every place , in which they reside , and Iliul tkclr usefulness gouo fiom this cause. ND church can long prosper , which is burdened with n pastor who is always in debt. A third essential in a minister's reputation Is that ho is elllclent and successful ; that he brings things to pass ; that the churches where bo has labored have thrived under his ministry. Tliero are aorno men who. ranked hluli in college ami the seminary , who have proved conspicuous failures as pastors. Secondly. A good minister is a man of well balanced character. Jinny are strong tn nn f > illiv * i Inn 1i.it ii'i ii I111 ntltfti.1 rl'tir tii nro men who hnvo n wonderful faculty of spcocb , who can prc.ich inctraordlnary sor- iimns , who uro weak IH cblld roil out of the pulpit.

Thorii is no posltlim In this wet Id moro lin- iiortunt thiiii tlio p.istonil relation , Iso oHleo eiiniicoted with i-ospoiislbtlitlcs. It is a blKli crhno iwuliibt ( io'l and tlio church [ or a pastor to dnwalo or siiond liU hours In KOislp or inontal ( irnslpa- tltiii. In tbu faithful perform uico of liU duties lie needs to Icecp both eyes opan ilny anil nlL'ht. Anotlierlinpartiint i-o-iuUltu Is that ho It sound hi the faith.

If His a llttlo heterodox It Is nil the sweeter to their tnsto. This Is nn ngo of restlo-jsiicss n'ld craving nftor novelty , nnd in-iny c-nido atul strliuo notions are | ) i-op.igatcd. Hut ( ho gospel minister had better bo too slow than too fust In accepting them , much moro In proichlni ? thoin. Deep nnd iinloitt" piety Is essential to a truly successful mlalsfr. Ho nn.st bo full of faith nud of the Holy Spirit. Learning Is good , eloqueiico Is gosti ; grace of iminnor.s is de.sirablo , but not any ( | , m Or all of tno o can comiiensnto for the lack of nn abiding splrltu- - , . . , nnother ver.v l/nportantmialllleatloii / for tlio minister is sympithy. 1 lo mutt hnvo tbo power to enter Into the feelings of others , to shnro their sorrows mid jovs. tjreachlng thatcomos from the hoirt nkw'o r&tuhiM the lic.nt. Truth must bo w.irined In the llres of n deep niul living sympitliy bcforolt will burn lu way Into the boat-Is of the hearers. Cold truths hnvo no power to move or vital ize men. Tha good minister is npt to teieli. Ilo is not ' - In language ni't-ossnrlly eloquent , or llucnt guage , but lie has tlio power to bring'out clearly and concisely the gre it truth's of God ; those not only found in the written \vord , but the onlso found in naluro and providence. Paul says ho wis cnnu-nptlblo in speech und wenk in ho.llly prose-tiro , but ho has moved the wo U for over eUhtoen centuries na no other mnn.

Strategy Ilelpsn Maine \Vomtin Out ol a Perilous I'rcdfcninciit. Ono dny Undo Jonas' two COWH dis-ip- punred from the opi-nlny in the woods ibout his lonely homo und no traces of them could bo found. Aunt Mollv , us his wife wits called , tlnrtod to hunt them up next morning , w the man of the fam ily wore iiw.iv , siys the Lewiston ( Mo. , ) lounuil , - ' - the cliililroii Ljiivitiftho und go- irifjiu n westerly directlon.slio wandered Lhroiitfhouttho day in the d-irk , nnhro- Uon fotvbt without n inonlhful to o it , except - copt : i few spruce biuls und dried hort-ies , with an occ.isioiuil luitidtul of groiind mils , wliioh gi-cw in ubmulanuo on the lowlands. The sun was fust sinking , when to her great joy , ho discovered tliu lo t cowa quietly griuing on a small grubs plat near Crooked river , some four miles from homo.Vith all possible husto she drove thoin alonglioping to rotieh homo before dark , as she had no guide , not even spotted trooa , f-ho liad to trust wholly to the instinct of the baiists. Their course oftun seemed to bo ex actly the opposite to riglit , htill her practical knovlcdgo taught her it was best to lot thoin have their own way. When near what In now known us tlio Pine hoiitio , on ii ridge covered by si growth of ( figiititic pine , bolh cows gave a loud bellow , as if from fright , and brolco into a furious g'allop in the direc tion of homo , now half a milo distant. Pausing to ascertain the canso of their freight , she was confronted by a wolf. The wolf sit once madonspring for her face , no doubt intending to grab her throat. With the skill and fury of an export boxer , Aunt Molly dealt him a .stunning blow with her brawny and hardened fist , which hont him back upon his haunches. Again and again tlio starving brute leaped for her throat , but each time was mot by both lists and feet with sulllciont force to send him back several feot. Knowing it was now life or ilesith , the heroic woman found herself fast growing weaker , while the attacks * of her tavavo adversary yrew moro florco. Snatching hoi-tattered shawl from her hotel , with a desperate leap she throw it ever the head of the well with a dexter ity which was not only surprising to the wolf , but herself also. Thisplecu of strategy had the effect to bewilder the wolf , ilo leaped wildly about vainly endeavoring to rid himself of his inconvenient headgear , while Molly lost no time in climbing to the lower branches of the tree and out of harm's roach. When the wolf had rid himself of Ids temporary blindfold and sutlicicntly recovery his equilibrium , seainy his intondeil victim beyond his reach , ho at once bet up the most do- inonino howls of rage and disappoint ment , occasionally venting his spleen by furious attacks upon the trunk of the trco and tearing tlio rough bark with his long crocked fangs. Hero she remained until the return of day , when the wolf slunk away in the direction of tlio river. As boon as she thought him at a safe distance Molly ; nearly famishing and benumbed by Cold , hastened down and sped for homo as fast as the condition of her cramped limbs and chilled frame W6uld permit. She found tlio children half frightened out of their wits , 'nb ' the arrival of the cows in to great ngllutioii had given thorn the idea that' their mother had been devoured , Using Cats us Clocks , Every ono knows that eats can see in tbo dark , and the reason they can do so isbocausoof the peculiar construction of tliolr oyos. You mnj" have noticed that in a moderate liglfl'tlio pupil or black part of pussy's eye is small nnd of an oval shapa , while'in a full glare of light it becomes narrow , -Now , In the dark it expands to a clreli and nearly ( Ills the Hurfsico of the eyeball. This paculiarity of the cat's eyes ii tin-nod to account in a curious manner bv the Chinese. The Abba Hue relates that when ho was trav eling In China ho asked bis iittnmlunt what tlmo it w.is. The man wont over to a ir.it that was quietly biskiug in the HUH and oxnmlning its eyes told the nbbo that it was about two Inurs after noon , and on being questioned how ho know that , ho explained that the pupils of a cut's eyes wore Iragost in the morn ing and that they gradually grow smaller us the light increased , until they reached their minimum at noon ; that then they began to widen again , until at night they once more bocanio largo. The irood iibba was Illlod with admira tion for the ingenuity of a people who could UHU cutH UH dcH'Ud.

THU WIND OAVi ; . A Itcocnt Visitor Tells About a Illuok Hills \Vniuler. II. U. Swain of MniviuoUo , ono of. the best known mining mcu of Upper Michi gan , was In Milwaukee the other evenIng - Ing , on his return to the Black Hills , where ho intends to settlo. Ilo tells wonders about a largo cave which lie visited there , and which almost rivals the celebrated Mammoth cave of Ken tucky , says llio Milwaukee Wisconsin. It is called the Wind cave , and Is situ ated about twelve miles from HulTalo Gap , on the Fremont. Klkhorn ft Mis- bouri Valley division of llio N'orthwest- crn rallroml. It was discovered nix years ago by J. Hitighain , and now belongs - longs toil. 11. Most and J. I ) . McDonald , who have greatly improved it mul in- toud to build n summer resort there. Guides are necessary to any oao ex ploring tlio cavo. "Tho entrance , " said Mr. Swain , "is marked by a mon imont of limestone about twelve feet high nnd twelve feet at the bine. The llrnt dosi-ent is by a series of steps blasted la the wall of tlio cwvo , ami short ladders , a distance of about llfty foot. At this depth there are a siiLVCbsion of innuinurablo largo grottos , called the upper chamber- . Now ones are constantly discovered. A peculiar feature of this cave is the draught of air. It does not seem to be controlled or atl'ojtod by the changes of the wind , but the current changes several times in twenty-four hours ; sometimes it is drawing or suck ing inward and at oilier tlmos blowing out. The pressure is strong enough to carry one's hat in or out , as the case may bo. "Proceeding into the cavity 1 saw a ' mimbor of largo passages nml'groHoes , all decorated with stalactite formations of snowy whiteness. The dlll'oront chambers have baen given names , like the oven , tlio bridal chamber , the well , which is 11 hole 159 foot deep ; the prairie ilog town , whore there sire sev eral mounds with holes in the center , closely resembling the dog towns of the biu-roundlng prairies ; the church steeple , and othoi-ri. Them conies u long and tortuous passago\vhor ono has to crawl over the camel's Inek into tlio postollico , a largo room , o feet long , i2" > feet wide , and 1C feet high. The btiluctiles here form a series of brown boxes.edged with white , along the wall. Then comes the cataract room , fully 00 feet high , whore the stalactites lake so m-iny fantastic shapes. Next is Rose's misery , a narrow fissure , where wo had to lie Hat on our sides and draw ourselves thro\tghby the projections on the roc Its. This is callou after a mn.n named Ho.so , who was stuck here till ho nearly -perished. In ono place the limo water falling from the coiling has produced shapes called the Elephant anil the Calf , which the visitor will recognize , provided his im agination is vivid enough. A narrow passage leads to what is culled Lovers' Uotreat , a llttlo oil the mala passage ; this room is10 feet long by 15 feet wide , 18 feet high , beautifully 'ervbtulizod in diamond shape and box work , with sev eral projections forming natural seats. "From this room , through the main passage , wo enter Monument hall. This room is fully 100 feet lotng and from o to 10 feet wide , with m-iny projections from the lloor from two to six feet high and resembling monuments. The walls ami roof are cryhtallnod in the forms of boxes and Hiiowliakes. This hall extends an unknown distance , but it narrows down too much to admit of entrance. Myguido told mo ho had been some two hundred feet further than I went. Here I found a strong current of air , and there is un doubtedly another opening to the surface. "From this point wo wont bapk to the Oven , near the ontrancoof thocavofrom which wo crawled through a long passage - sago to the stalagmite room , with sta lactite and stalagmite from lloor to roof , with crystaliwitlon of frost and boxwork. From hero wo made a half circle through a narrow passage into a small room , whence wo ascended a sort of a cork screw passage about sixty leot long , en tering a beautifully crystali/.ed room about fifteen foot in diameter called the parlor. From this wo wont through a passage said to bo 1,000 feet long , three foot high , four feet wide. This passage glistens with crystallizations in all forms. Wo then entered a largo room about 11 fly foot by twonty-llvo feet and twonty- 11 vo foot high , beautifully orystaliyeil. On entering tbo cave there is a cold draught , and ono needs heavy clothes ; but after dropping about llfty foot wo passed into the dressing room where wo loft our surplus clothing. At last wo climbed up forty feet almost vertically , and were astonished to find ourselves at the foot of the hill. " TI1U HKAU 15UU.M.Hiij DItUSS. A Now Cllnginc Gown ( lint n Silken I'nrt lore Will .Make. Tlio "Beau Crummol" is the gown of the hour , says the Now York World. Moilihtes are sent to tlio play in Hocks to copy the long , lovely dresses displayed in the minuet , and to reproduce in detail the crushed rose ruche at the hem , the ribbon girdle that binds the short waist and the low , round bodice that displays the beauties of shouldorand arm without the slightest olloiiso to modesty. The "Beau Bruinmol" is remarkable in more ways than ono. In the llrst place it requires a specialist of expres sion , n dancing-master , a Oolwirtian or , as Farngus puts it , a "professor of music , dancing anil etiquette , "to teach a woman how to wear it. All the gathers are held in the back in a space of throe inches ; the gores are fitted to follow the lines of the body and to break artistically ; the walk , the pose and the postures must bo studied , and worst of all the court bow mastered , which "carries a sweeping knee to the earpot. " No skirts are worn with the long , narrow dress , and If cor sets are used they must bo the voi-y shortest and made to measure. Only three yards of doth are needed , hut it is not selected from tbo dry goods stock. The upholsterer is levied upon and the imported fabrics used for portieres are lirst choice. There are cream , pink , blue and pistaulio in plain aad inniro oltects , with a nosegay or garland of Louis XV. hand-ombroid- oi-ed , that are suitable for a dross of tills sort. They co.st $111 a yard , but tlioyai-o goods tluit will endure in beauty and may bo worn a century hence. It was material of this Iciiul that Mrs. Langtry bought for her Lady Claiicarty and Lady of Lyons costumes and which she fre quently wears at dinner in private life. The soft art stuffs for covering furni ture and panolling walls are also used , and may no had for $ . ' ! a yard. Then there are tbo satin brocades and the French novelties in the dry-goods shops of narrow width , but they cost like forty and Ihictunto at the biuno rate. Still they are pretty. Fancy \vlilto brocudo that clings lo tlio figure as only silk can , trimmed round the bottom with a wreath of pink rosojl well worn , with slipper mid gloves , a crepe scarf and a fan , any woman could make a honsation in a com- piny. Tlio mo.lllied "JJoau Mrommol , " with high nock and long sloavos , is the most popular dross on the summer hotel plazzu. * Kavcil by tlio Turn ol'n Cnril. B-jforo the wina man was on trial in I/iudordalo county for miirdor , s iys tlio Atlanta Constitution. The circumstan tial evidence against tlio man was very strong , and when the jury rotlrod 'and took a ballot tlio result was six for con viction and six for acquittal. It re- muiucd tlila way for two days aud nights , neither sldo showing any dlspo- bit Ion to change their mimls. At last ono of tlio jury named Silver- tootli proposed n giuno of seven up bo- twocn tlio opposing sltkvs , ono man to lie Boleetod from each sldo , and whoever won the losing shin \un-o to stand by tlio result. This wits agreed lo and Sllvortooth who was In favor nf acquit- tiny the prisoner , nnd iniotlior juror , who was strongly in fnvor ol conviction , commenced tlio gaino.
