But the sanors say there is going to be a change of weather. And even the passen- llear 'b® moanl ’ 1 S °f the storm as it comes on with long stride, with all the terrors of hurricane and darkness. The large boat trembles like a deer at bay trembling among the clangor of the hounds; great the patches of loom are flung into the air; sails of the vessels loosen, and the ?f a ck l ce P I9 tols: the smaller boatsliko petrels , poise , on the cliff of the waves and then plunge. Overboard go ' aa kbng and masts, and the drenched discipies rush into the back part oi the boat and lay hold of Christ and say oaras ' tbou not that Me perish. trom Ihat great personage lifts ms head the pillow of the fisherman’s coat, walks to the front of the vessel and looks out into the storm. A11 around him are the smaller boats, driven in the temp- ess, and through it comes the cry of drown- '“K the fnen. By the flash of the lightning I see calm (brow oi iChript as the spray ior dropped from His beard. He has one word the sky and another word for the waves. Looking upward. He cries, Peace. Look- lc ?, < 0 "' nwar< ;, He stiU. lho 1 waves fall flat on their faces, the foam melts, the extinguished stars relight their torches, the tempest falls dead, and Christ stands with His foot on the neck o£ the storm. And while the sailors are bail- ing out the bouts and while they aye trying to untangle the cordage the disciples stand m amazement, then the now calm looking into the cairn sea, into sky, then into the calm of the Saviour s countenance, and they cry out, ‘Wliat manner of man is this, that even the winds and theseaobey Him?” ■^be subject in the first place impresses me with the f act that it is very important to have Lhrist m the ship, for all those boats would have gone to the bottom oi Gennesaret if Christ had not been present, Oh, wba- a lesson for you and for mo to learn: Whatever voyage we undertake, in- to whatever enterprise we start, let us ai- ways have Cnrist in the ship. Manyofyou in these days oi revived commerce are startmg out m new financial enterprises. I bid vou good cheer. Do all you can do. Do it on as high a plane as possible. You .have no right to be admira a stoker of the m the ship if you can be an navy. You have no right to be a colonel of a regiment if you can command a brigade; you have no right to be engineer of a boat on river banks or near the coast if you can take the ocean steamer from New York to Liver- -” a) *, < 0 ' v ‘i ! utmost tension of body, mind and soul you are bound to do; but, oil, have Christ m the enterprise, Christ in every voyage, Christ in every 6l ”P ; There a VP men who , a^k God to help them at the start of great enterprises. He has been with them in the past. No trouble can overthrow them. The storms ^might come down from the top of Mount Herinon Aind lash Gennesaret into foam and into agony, but it cou.d not hurt them. But here is another man who starts out in worldly enterprise, and hoi depends upon the uncertainties of this life. He has no God to help him. After awhile the storm comes and tosses oil the masts of the ship, He pu.,3 oub his lifeboat. The sheriff and the auctioneer try to help him off. They can t help him oft. He must go down no Christ m the ship. Here are young men just starting out in life. Your life will be made up of sunshine and shadow. There may be in it arctic blasts or tropical torna- does. I know not what is before you, but I know if you have Christ with you all suall b« well. You may seem to get along without the religion ot Christ while everything goes smoothly, but after awhile, ^vhen sorrow hovers over the soul when tbe waves of trial flash clear over the hurricane deck and the bowsprit is shivered and the hal- yards are swept into the sea and the gang- way is crowded with piratical disasters- oh, what would you then do without 1 for your portion, God for your guide, God for your help, then all is well -ail is well for time, all shall be well forever. Blessed ls that man who puts in the Lord hjs trust. He shall never be confounded. But my subject also impresses me with the fact that when people smooth start to follow Christ they must not expect sailing. These disciples got into the smal boats, andl have no doubt they said: “What a beautiful day tins is! What a smooth sea! Wliat a bright sky this is! How delightful is sailing in this boat! And as for the waves under the keel of the boat, why, they only make the motion of our little boat the more delightful.” But when the Christ was not smooth hav‘e sailing So bid vou have found it; so I found it you ever notice the end of the life of the that i^evermououglit’to'hnvehad a°smooth life, a smooth departure, then those men, the disciples oi Jesus Christ, ought to have had such a departure and such a life. St. James lost his head. St. Philip was bung to death on a pillar. St. Matthew had ills life dashed out with iv halberd. Sl - Murk was flraggefl to flonth through tlm streets, si. James the Less was beaten to death with a fuller's club. Rt. Thomas was Struck thtoURh with a spear. They did not And following Christ smooth sailing. Oh, how they were all tossml in the tempest! John Huss la the Ore, Hugh MoKall In the hour of martyrdom, the Alblgenses, the Walllenses. the Scotch Covenanters—dill they find it smooth sailing? ■ 5!ut why go to history when I e ft u find all truth oi this subject—that T ?' voutv? man ° f »<}« in the store trying to serve God while his em- Moyer scoffs at Christianity, the young men in the same store antagonistic to t.he Christian religion, teasing him. tormenting saving, swwusfc “You’re pretty swums Christian!” Does a thig voung man find it smooth sailing when he trles t0 foUow Christ? Hern is a Chris- tian girl. Her father despises the Christian religion; hermother despises the Christian religion; her brothers and sisters scoff nt the Christian roHglon; she can hardly find U quiet ,' place > in which to snv her prayers. D d sll( flnd it smooth sailing when she tried to follow Jesus Christ? Oh. no: all wh0 would live the life of the Christian r ,. li)?ion must suffer persecution. If vou *>“* ia you wi.l get it in an Tlie“question wa? asked, “Who are those the throne?” and the answer came back, “These are thev who came up out of great tribulfttion”-“groat flailing,” us the original has it; great flailing, great pound- ing—“and had their robes washed and made white in the blood of the Lamb.” Oh, do not be disheartened! O child of God, ^rste eourage! You are in glorious com- panionship. God will see you through ail t ] le se trials, and He will deliver you. yjy subject also impresses me with the fact that good people sometimes get very inl ,ch frightened. In the tones of these disciples as they rushed into the back part 0 f tbe boa f j dnd they are frightened nl- OTOst to death. They say, “Master, earest xhotl Dot t ) lat w „ perish?” They had no reason10 b „ frightened, for Christ was in the boa t. I suppose if we had been there Wi > would have been just as much affright- ed f Perhaps more. n all ages very good people get very mucb affrighted. It is often so in our da y. and men say; “Why, look at the bad lectures; look at the spiritualistic socie- ties; look at the various errors going over the church of God. We are going to foun- der; the church is going to perish; she is KO i ng down.” Oh, how many good people are affrighted by triumphant iniquity in our da y and think tile church of Jesus ciirist and the cause of righteousness are go i I1K to be overthrown and are just as mHcb affrighted as the disciples of my text were affrighted. Don't worry, don’t fret, as though iniquity were going to triumph over righteousness into A lion goes a cavern to sleep. He jj es down with his shaggy mane covering the paivs. Meanwhile the spiders spin a web across the mouth of the cavern and S ay. “We have captured thread him.” Gossamer thread after gossamer is spun until t be whole front of the cavern is covered with the spiders’web and the spiders say, “The lion is done; the lion is fast.” After awhile the lion has got through sleeping, He rouses himself, lie shakes his mane, he walks out into the sunlight, he does not even know the spiders’web is spun, and w ith his voice lie shakes the mountain, g 0 men 00 me, spinning Jesus tlieir Christ. sophistries He and skepticism about see ms to be sleeping. They say: “We have captured the Lord. He will never come forth again upon the nation. Christ is cap- tured, and captured forever. His religion will never make any conquest among men.” after awhile the “lion of the tribe of» j u dah" will rouse himself and come forth to shake mightily the nations. What is a gpWer ’ s web to the aroused lion? Give truth and error a fair grapple, and truth wi n 00tne off victor. Again, my subject impresses me with the fee faot that Jesus was God and man in same being. Here he is In tlie back part o£ the boat . 0 h, how tired he looks, what gad dreams he must have! Look at liis counte nance. He must be thinking oi the cross to come. Look at him. He is a man —bone of our bone, flesh of our flesh. Tired, he falls asleep; he is a man. But £ben j fl nd Christ at the prow of the boat, j pear Him say, “Peace, be still!” And I sae £be storm kneeling at His feet and the tempests ^ folding their wings in His pres¬ enc He fs a God. If I have sorrow and trouble and want sympathy, I go and kneel down at tbe back p' ar t 0 f t be boat and sympathize say, “O Christ, with all weary oue 0 f Gennesaret, my sorrows, man of Nazareth, man of the cross .>. A man, a man. But if I want to conquer my spiritual foes, if I want to get the victory ever sin, death and hell, I come to the front of the boat and I kneel down, and I say, “O Lord Jesus Christ, Thou who dost hush the tempest, hush all my grief, hush all my temptation, hush all my sin.” A man< a man> a God , a God. I iearn once more from this subject that Christ cau hush a tempest. It did seem as it everything must go to rain. The dis- c j pies had given iro tile idea oi managing ghip . T he crew were entirely de- moralized, yet Christ rises, and He puts His foot ou the storm, and it crouches at His feet _ 0 h, yes, Christ can hush the tempest! y ou have had trouble.

Or, your property gone, vou sa id, “I have so much bank stock, I have so many government securities, I have so many houses, I have so many farms”— a u gone all gone. Why, all the storms that ever trampled with their thunders, all the shipwrecks, have not been worse than this to you. Yet y OU have not been completely overthrown. Why? Christ hushed the tempest. Your litt f e 0Qe was taken away. Christ says: “1 have that little one. I can take care of j 1 j rn a s well as you can, better than you can oh bereaved mother!” Hushing the t Qm pest! When your property went away, Go d said “There are treasures in heaven, ln banks tbat never break.” There is one storm into which we will all ] iaV o to run the moment when we let go of when^we will*^anVa^^he^graco^we 11 ^ have—we will want it all.

Tbe^mber exports from theUnited Statei I lor the last year were twenty-four per mouths cent greater than for the previous twelve TRAWLERS ON THE GRAND BANKS, How till' Coil oml HullImt Are Taken by tile Small Vessels. Gustav KohVie writes an article en¬ titled “On the Grand Banks and Else¬ where” for St. Nicholas. Mr. Kobbe says: generally found The trawlers are on the Grand Banks, the hand-liners on the Western Bank and Quiro. These hand-liners lire smaller vessels with fewer dories, and the men fish with hand-lines, one man and two lines to a dory. The lxand-liner sits in the middle of his dory, with a compart¬ ment in its stern and another in its bow for his catch. When you see the bow sticking far up into the air you know the fisherman has his stern-load. Then, as fish after fish flashes into the other compartment, the bow settles, and when the dory is on an even keel the hand-liners pull back to the vessel. The trawlers bait with fresh herring, mackerel and squid; the hand-liners v/ith salt clams. The catch of both is split and salted, and the vessel has a full “fare,” or catch, when she has “wet her salt”—that is, used up all her salt and is full of fish. A trawler’s voyage lasts about eight weeks; a hand-liner’s, eleven. A trawler’s crew receives no wages, but fishes on shares. First, the cap¬ tain gets a percentage; of the remain¬ der, one-half goes to the vessel, which “finds,” that is, supplies the gear, stores, salt and half the bait; and the other half to the captain and crew in equal shares, which run from §110 to $150, and even to $250. But among the hand-liners each man is paid according to what he catches, the “fare” from each dory being weighed as it is taken aboard. This stimulates competition, There is judgment in knowing where to fish or how long to stay over a certain spot; and even the quickness with Which a line is hauled in-will make a perceptible difference at the end of a day’s fishing. It means something to be “high line,” as they call the best fishermen, at the end of a voyage, and those who win this distinction time and again, as some do, become known as “killers” and “big fishermen.” The main catch on the Banks is cod and halibut. There is also a fleet of small American vessels which pursue the merry swordfish. Swordfishing is good sport—whaling on a small scale. A man, dart in hand, stands in the vessel’s bow, supported by a semi¬ circular iron brace. When near enough to the fish he lets fly the dart. A swordfish may weigh 350 pounds. One can tow a dory a mile, and a piece of the sword has been found driven through the bottom of a pilot boat. Prince Wore a Necklace of Pearls. The conversation given last night by the East India United Service Club to meet the Princess and other Indian visitors now in England, proved an es¬ sentially brilliant function. Crowds of well-dressed guests lined the stair¬ case and filled the large entrance hall, overshadowed by palms, to witness the arrival of the Queen’s Indian guard, many of the Hyderabad contingent and other finely built native soldiers with a profusion of orders on their breasts. They were quickly followed by several of the Princes. Pertab Singh was clad in a red and gold striped habit, with a light blue and silver turban, on which figured a medallion portrait. His aid-de-camp was in red and gold, divided as a short skirt and long jacket, with a black and gold turban. With him was another Indian visitor in a long white satin coat cut as they wear them in the East. Another Prince was arrayed in white satin with rows of pearls about his neck; a long bar of diamonds clasping, notthelobe, but the entire ear, and magnificent, diamond ornaments glittered on his soft silky yellow turban. A grand old nawab’s coat was entirely composed of cloth of gold, and, with his gray whiskers curiously tied and large tur¬ ban, he towered above all the rest. There were three Parsees in shiny black caftans, the elder Bir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy.—St. James’ Gazette. Here is a Lake of Ink. In tli8 middle of the Cocopnh hills, iu Arizona, is what is known as the Lake of Ink. Though supplied by beautiful springs of clear water, the liquid of the lake is black and of an ink-like character. The temperature varies from 110 degrees to 216 degrees, according to tho locality, and the water feels smooth and oily. According to the Indians, not only of the vicinity, but far away, the waters of the lake have strong medicinal qualities, though most white people would hesitate to adopt the mode of treatment pre¬ scribed. The invalid is buried up to his mouth in the hot volcanic mud for from twenty to thirty minutes. Then he is carried, covered with mud, to the edge of the lake, into which he is plunged from fifteen to twenty min¬ utes, after which he is rolled in a blanket and allowed to sweat ou -tlie hot, sulphurous sand or rock near by. The cures wrought are said to be won¬ derful. Pearl Farming. James Clark,' of Queensland, “the king of the pearl fishers, who em- ploya 1500 men and 250 vessels in liar- vesting vesting his ms crop, crot) recently recently ioiu told a acor- to respondent of the Melbourne Age: I have been fifteen years engaged in JL pearl fishing. My experience has led “f to totlle the belief beU ® t that tUa ;’ with \ vim Kroner l^°per iu- telhgence r in the selection of a place one can raise pearls and pearl shells as eas il v as one can raise oysters. I * started , my farm . three ,, years ago and 1 stocked it with shells which I ob- tained in many instances far out at sea . My pearl shell farm covers 500 square miles. Over most of it the water is shallow. In shallow water shells attain the largest size. I ship m j pea rls to London in my own ves- sels. The catch each year runs, r0U ghly speaking, from $200,000 up lo a l m ost five times that amount.” A CONTENTED PEOPLE. Mexican Villagers Whose Habits Are Very Simple. The inhabitants of the little interior villages of Mexico retain many of their primitive customs. They are peace¬ Their able, congenial and religious. life, though monotonous in the ex¬ treme, is a happy one. They cultivate corn, beans, wheat, and possess small herds of cattle and goats, The women, in addition to performing their household duties, cultivate vegetables, flowers, fruits and plants for medicinal use. They raise cotton, from which they spin and weave manta (a cotton fabric) for clothing. On their feast days, which are many, they go to church dressed in their bright costumes, those of the maidens being white adorned with ribbons of many colors, The senoras wear striped dresses of white and blue. The hair is worn plaited in two braids, while upon the head is the in- dispansable “mazclohuati” (a head dress worn by the lower caste Mexi¬ cans), woven in red cotton. The women’s eyes are large and expres¬ sive, and their teeth perfect and. bril¬ liantly white. The form is slight and the movements graceful. The young men dress in jackets without sleeves and knee breeches. Upon the day of their marriage they adopt trousers, which are made by the “Novia” (sweetheart) who has already woven the manta. They take their places in the church with the children, senoritas and senoras ou the right and the men and boys on the left. They pray and sing in the native Mexican language, which is richer, sweeter and more expressive than the Spanish. In the “Dias tianguis” (market days), they assemble and exchange their goods. Money is a superfluity, and the interchange is made by means of barter and trade. Their meals consist of “maza de maiz” (flour of corn), which is mixed with powdered chile, in making tomales, tortillas, frejoles (beans), and the native fruits and vegetables, of which there is an endless variety, including aguacates, nanches, tetec- zas, tilapos, sandias, chicozapotes, melones and others. Every year the people assemble to elect their judge, or alcalde, whom they usually obey implicitly. This magistrate is selected from the older men of the pueblo.—City of Mexico Letter. Dug Up a Fortune. While digging up a tree in the yard of Silver Trevine at Monterey, Mex¬ ico, Petronilo Hernandez found three earthen jars filled with gold and sil¬ ver coin. Hernandez, who was a ser¬ vant, secured a sack and carried away two or three loads of the treasure. When Trevino learned of the discov¬ ery he had Hernandez arrested for robbery. The wealth amounts to about $20,000, one-third of which must go the Government. Hernan¬ dez, is confined in prison.—St. Louis Globe Democrat,.. Rebellious Memory.

The famous Sphinx near the Pyra¬ mids of Gizeh was thoroughly investi¬ gated by Professor Erman, who at a recent meeting of the Berlin Academy lectured about its probable age. Care¬ ful researches show that it could not have been built previous to the so- called “Middle Kingdom,” or about 2000 B. C. Between her front paws there was originally the image of a deity, all trace of which at the present time has disappeared. For the build¬ ing of the colossal work more than twenty years must have been necessa¬ ry, even if 1,500 men had been em¬ ployed all the time. Progressing.
