The offer of a reward of $100 for the reco
cry of the body of William Wrido , the fet
man of the Milwaukee Uridgo company , u 1
lost hi * lifo nt the now bridge last Friday ,
drew a lanto crowd of people to the river to
engage m a search , and parties wcro at work
nil day yesterday trying to find some trace
of the body. Dynamite bombs xvoro ex
ploded at Interval * In the hope of raising It
to the surface , but at last ac
counts the efforts were still fruitless.
It seems to bo the pcnoral opinion that the
body has floated down with the currint , nnd
that when it Is recovered , ns It is nearly cer
tain to bo In the course of a few daj s , It will
bo miles away from Iho scene of the drown-
Inc. Some , however , cling to the Idea that
iHjsslbly It caught upon some object nnd has
been covered up by the boiling and eddying
sand at the bottom of the river. In which
case the chances for Its recovery are ex
tremely doubtful.

The dovll is well represented in geographical -
graphical and topographical nomencla
ture. At Boroughbridge , In Yorkshire ,
is a group of remarkable prehistoric
monoliths called the Devil's arrows.
Tlio Duvil's Bit mountains are in the
County Tippernry , near Tomplomoro. A
remarkable ancient earthwork neai
Newmarket , in England , Is called the
Dovil's ditch. An ancient wall across
the stewatry of Kircndbrlght is callet
the Devil's dyko. Another Dovil's dyke
is a hill in'tho South Downs of Sussex ,
with remains of a prehistoric and prob
ably Celtic fort. The Devil's glen lake
is a deep valley of the County Wioklow ;
Devil's lake is a eahno lake ( and modern
city ) of North Dakota. Another Devil's
lake is near Bamboo. Wis. The Dovil's
inkstand is a deep and wonderfully line
crater lake of South Australia. The
devil lentil his namp to form a part of a
celebrated cavern in Derbyshire , Eng
land. The Dovil's punchbowl is an in
teresting mountain tarn of the county of
Kerry. In the Black Hills country of
South Dakota is the Devil's tower , an
enormous natural obelisk of trachyte
025 foot high. Ono of the Fuegaii islands
is called tlio Dovil's inland. In tlio faamo
group is a Dovil's harbor , on another
island. There is another Devil's island
olT the const of Maine ; another belongs
to French Guiana. The Dovil's peak is
a high mountain of Ilayti ; there is an
other in South Africa , and a third
( Mount Diablo ) is in California. The
Dovil's bridge is in the canton of Uri ,
Switzerland. The Devil's bridge in Car
diganshire is also well known. The
Devil's nohO is a Canadian Rocky moun
tain peak. The Dovil's tower is the north
east nngloof the works atGibraltar. An
other Devil's lake IB in the coast region
of Tillamook county. Oregon. A Mount
Diablo ribcs near Samana , in Santo
Domingo , Dovil's Bosch is a mountain
region of South Africa. Doil's point Is
vorv near Capo Town. Dovil's river is
in Victoria , Australia. Tlio Dovil's
thumb is on the west coast of Green

) fact ) in a cemetery at Lawrence , Ma s.
: Tlio Devil's buck ( or limb ) is a rook olT
Boston. Another rock with the same
tn
ntimo is in Miihcongus bay , Maino. The
Maine coast has also a Dovll'n elbow and
three Devil's heads. The Devil's hlltlo
Is ono of the sights on tlio Union Pacific
railroad , and Canon Diablo Is a deep ,
dry orovico in the face-of New Mexico.

Ills llciniirks In 1'utt.
Hov. T. J. Maekcy of the All Saints
church delivered n sermon nt the morning
scrvlcci in his church yesterday , of encour
agement to business men , in view of the
financial storm through which they are now
passing.
Ho expressed great sympathy for the men ,
> vho , Inspltc of every effort , have failed to
feather the storm , and exhorted them note
o bcconio discouraged , for the true great-
, css of man is shown In adversity.
"In war n retreat in the presence of the
nemy , skillfully and safcljMvccompllshcd , is
onsKlcrcd the highest evidence of good gen-
ralshlp , " said the rector. "Ho who Is able
o recall and collect his shattered forces , and
11 the niltlst of his anguish of mind , to so
ilaco them that they can retreat without
urthcr serious loss , has shown himself to bo
rorthy of his great trust , and exhibited un
ion bled proof ot true greatness of intellect.
So , too. In business life , the man whom , wo
ospect and boner Is not ho who , when mis-
'ortuno overtakes him , sits tloun to
jowatl his loss , but ho who
'aces his ill fortunes , nnd sets
o work with willing hands and n bravo
le.irt to retrieve nat ho had lost. So , too ,
n the moral lifo there are men who nro mor-
lly good and upright as long as the winds
f prosperity attend them , but when the
pales of misfortune strike them they give
Lhcmsolves up to recklessness of life let
ooso all the evil impulses of their nature
mil sink from bad to worse , pitied by their
'nllow men , but really unworthy of that pity ,
'or they failed to rccognlzo their true
dignity the true greatness of man as sons
f God , made In the Imago of God and ns
uch , striving BO to love , that whether
basking in the sunshine of prosperity or
borne down by distressing grief tlioy could
quit themselves as men , knowing that hero
hey have no abiding city ; knowing that
rials and tribulations are a part of tlio true
discipline of lifo , nnd which , rightly berne ,
will bring forth in propoition the brightest
virtues 01 character mid disposition.
"Tho true greatness of man consists in
doing his whole duty in that state of lifo
'nto which God has called him , not blindly
ivorking out his destiny , but as a man made
n the imago of God , faithfully striving to
nako himself worthy of his holy heritage ,
meeting adversity calmly , summoning the
scattered forces of the soul when misfortune
issails.

"Tho prayer of Elijah is the cry of many a
. .allant heart when trouble stares them in
tlio face , but It is not the cry of the Chris
tian. Are there nny Elijahs hero today
uhoso lifo was once full of enthusiasm and
brightest visions of hope , but who arc now

stand in the gap and say , 'I
have done my best and' have

you. You have lifo , family and honor left ,

J'Wo must regard lifo by the light of im

not by the lifo and character of the men
whom wo have been considering today , great
as they are , but by the lifo and character of
Ono greater than oven the great Elijah ,
whoso prayer was not : 'Lord , take away
my life.1 but : 'Lord , if it bo possible , lot ,
this cup pass from mo. Nevertheless , not
my will , but thino bo done. ' This is the vic
tory that overcometh the world. To fcol
that wo are in God's hands , and that God's
will is being worked out , even though it bo
through our failure and loss , "
Kruniiix .Sermon.
The subject chosen for a sermon by Rev ,
Mnckay at tlio All Saints church last even
ing was "Intolerance. " He spoke In part as
follows :
' Wo can do nothing against the truth , "
said the divine. "There Is a strong tendency
apparent today toward a revival of that
paternal character in our government which
once distinguished the monarchies of Europe ,
Extiernes meet , it ib said , and it is certainly
most strange that In n land noted for its
freedom laws should bo evaded resembling
nero the laws of Hussla under Peter the
_ ! reat than those of n self governed people ,
vho claim to bo the rulers themselves ,
[ 'hero Is no inoro puzzling question asking
or n solution today than the
elation between liberty and authority.
Jvery man desires frooilom freedom
of thought , freedom of speech and freedom
of person and yet it is evident that tlicio
'rccuom of thought , it is true , but ho must
.hlnk rightly. A man must have the prlvl-
"ego of the freedom of speech ;
low far ho may carry that prlvl-
.ego Is n questionable point. Docs
freedom of speech imply that ho may bo
) crmittcd to incite his follow men to trca-
> on , indulge in blasphemy or slander his fel
lows ? "
"Tlio man who Is free Is only free to do
that which is right. The moment ho offends
against the peace nnd safety of society wo
feel at liberty to pltt o him under restraint.
"Wo often take too great a freedom with
f morals , When Mr. Wanamakor ox-
eluded the ' 'Kruetzcr Sonata'1 from
tlio mails ho was severely criticised
and people dcclarfU ho had made a grcal
mtstaKo , But tlio , mistalto lay inoro In tin
action of the lawmakers who madq suet
consulship possible , "Wo have been out o
the leading Htriifg of paternalism as i
nation too recently to again put our neck
under such n yoke ;
"Acr.vhig evil of1 bur day Is the alarming
IticreasQ of legislative enactments , Joe

wouid-bn refonners4"hovor weary of niakint

"I would like to see * our cigar am
candy stores closed so that ou
joung men might find inoro tun
to seek inoro ennobling pleasures !
1 would like to see many ovlls removed am
had I the power \\ould enforce the Guide

I would IK ) placing this fearful power ml

the probable result of such laws , 1 say 'Go

trusion , und the horrors of the Inquisitlo
would be re-viewed In u tenfold worse fen
on than ever before.
"St. Paul on u llko question said : 'On
jit man cstcemoth ono day above another ; in
other man estcemeth every day alike. I < c
ill each man bo fully assured In his own mind
iu "In the matter of Sunday observance-
iua ha\e spoken before , and believe all unnccei
a sary work should be tivolded on that da iy :
. but I kuow of no law of God which prohibit
moderate recreation on Sunday. I believe
the Christian church has lost its touch with
the working classes because it ha * been In-
tolercnt In regard to the observance of this
day of rest. To prescribe how each man
shall obtain that rest would bo absurd ,
ami to Insist on certain modes
of recreation nnd the abstninanco
of others , would bo the worst form of
tyranny. That the World's fair Is to bo
opened on Sunday is an evidence that
the common senseof the people it nt last be
ginning to bo felt. As an editorial in Tun
llr.t : stated the other day , commenting on
thn proposed boycott of the fair by the
Mothodlst church 'why not boycott the
street cars and parks because they nro used
tn Sunday for tlio purpose of recreation ? '
1 am glad that the good sense of the Moth
odlst laity has prevented such a ridiculous
procedure and called n halt on the Intoler
ance of tlio clergy of that church.
Tlio gospel of Christ can never bo made to
sanction any infringement of man's personal
freedom of will. The so called reform laws
placed on our statute books nro exhibitions
of our weaknesses nnd under the censorship
of the press ev | < oscs us to the rldluulo of
other nations.
"A better living faith In Christ's religion
is needed and such fuith will do away with
all kinds of Intolerance. "
LEFT HIS PISTOL AT HOME.
Colonel .ToliiMon'ii PnrKotfulncm Compelled
Him to CruufUh Unprorcdc.itmlly.
The oolonol nntl I were Blttliifj on a
Kentucky ttivorn veranda , smoking and
tnlkitifi , snys a writer In the Now York
Sun , when ho suddenly reached behind
him nnd exclaimed :
"Dtirn my skin , but that's just llko
met Left my pistol at homo on the
bureau ! "
"There doesn't seem to bo nny need of
it nrountl hero , " I replied.
"Can't toll can't tell. It's time for
Major Green to como aloiiff , and when I
moot up with the major I always feel
better to bo heeled. "
Wo dropped tlio subject for another ,
and hud been talking about ton minutes ,
when back wont the colonel's hand
again , and lie Haiti :
"Durn my skin , but there's Major
Green , and I ain't got nothing to bhoot
with ! "
"Is there going to bo nny shooting
hero ? "
"Not under the circumstances , but
you are gain1 to see , the \vot-bt case of
crawfishing that has happened around
hero for twenty yours. "
The major enino along the street ,
caught higlit of the colonel and ntopped ,
wltli his hand on his hip. As the colonel
iniulo no move of a hostile nature the
major slowly ascended the stops , came
along down to us , and said :
"Colonel Johnson , fo' years ago I stated
that Captain Brobs had a nigger working
for him who was blind in the left eye.
You picked mo up , snh , and saitl It was
the right oyc. Wo parted , sah , and have
not spoken since ! "
"Major , 1 reckon I was wrong , " re
plied the colonel. "Yes , I reckon I was
wrong and you wore right. Meant to
have told you bo long ago , but had no
show. "
"If you still insist that it was the right
eye , why ! " and the major threw the
hand back.
"Oh ! no ! no ! Loft eye , major , loft
eye ! How's the cotton coming on , major ?
Heard you wore t'oinjj In for a powerful
big crop this year. "
"Tho cotton , sah , the cotton , " replied
the major , as ho turned to go , "tlio cot
ton is all right. I bhall have a powerful
crop. Good day , sail. "
And when ho had disappeared in tlio
distance , marching away as fatitT as a
poker , the colonel turned to mo with :
"You were speaking with that nigger
as I came out. Which eye is it' ? "
"Neither one , colonel ! lie has as
good a pair of eyes as yours or mine. "
And the colonel softly whimpered ,
'Durn my bkin"and wont away to drinl <
alone.

REVJ3KENC.2 POK CATS.
A Oncer Ciibtom I'rov.ilcnt Among tlio
The cat is well known as having been
an object of worship in Egvpt , bays the
Cincinnati Commercial. The Goddess
Pnsht , many of whoso statues may bo
seen in the British museum , was always
represented with the head of a cat ; t
temple was dedicated to her'at Bon
Hassan , which ib as old as the cigh
teonth dynasty , 1,500 years B. C. Tlio
cats that died there were buried il
countless thousands in pits near thi
temple , having been first of all cm
balined and converted into mummies.
A few years since these cat pitb were
excavated , and many tons ol tlio em
balmed eats were broken up , shipped
from Alexandria to Liverpool , and
there ground into manure at the bono
mills of that city. When lirst dug up
out of the pits each mummy was envel
oped in thin cloth. In most of
the mummies that were shipped
to England tlio cloth had been
stripped oil by the diggers in order to
obtain any trinkets or ornaments that
were burled with the the animals and
the bodies were broken up in fragments
before they were shipped. One cargo
alone was calculated to contain the re
mains of not Icsn than 180,000 eats. Tlio
examination of the skulls proved that
the cat , domesticated by the Egyptians ,
was really a North African bpecics ,
known to the naturalists as Foils
manlculiita. Tills is rather smaller
than our ordinary domestic cat and of a
yollowibh color , with borne dark fatripcs
on the body.
The domesticated cat of the Egyptians
was venerated by them to an absurd
extent. Herodotus recounts the fact
that wlien a cat died a natural deatli in
a houbo the inhabitants shaved oil their
eyebrows and in his own quaint way
says that when a lire occurred the
people were more anxious to save their
- cats than to extinguish the conllagra-
tion.
