Comwhiiicutd. Be Wise in Time, Suppose that I am about to make a j. 1)1007 tlnegh Africa; au I have the Hhc-"* of the Me-iittrauean tny friends flo-:k around mo and imp’ore me not to go with out. a guide. I pay no at tention to them 'uitbcr than to say I li.ve plenty of money with me, and that is alwats a sufficient guide. A native who has led many a traveler over the earns country, off rs his ser vices, but they are refine- and with the same expression. A west later I find myself in the midst of a burning de sert — mv supply of wt<r aim jst gone, aud no shelter from the tcorehingsacd and blistering sunshine. Now I realize that I am lost end about to die, and of what value to me aro the thoasends of dollars within my pockets? They can not call a guide or open a spring in the desert. We are not prepared for the fufute until we engsge a gniuo who knows all of the way. The lamps of wealth, of knowledge, ot honesty, may famish light enough to enable ns to grope our way to the grave, but only the light of tbo iuvelation, the grace ami truth, which came by Jesus Christ, can make plain the path through death’s mid night to the marriage feast beyond. I do not believe in mere outward mor aliiy. It can no naive tyke us to Heaven than a railroad train could bear ns across the Atlantic ocean Tine wisdom heeds Chiist’e word; “Ye mast be born eg-.ii !’ A J. 8 Protests in Yum.

I pricked np some information about Coney Island beer the other day, says a reporter ix the Brooklyn Citizen, my informant being (he sapeiintendcint of a well known restaurant. “I had charge,'’ he said, “of a beer counter down at the Island part of one sum mer, and really think I learned how to sell move froth and loss beer for five cents than any other man in town. For every keg of beer that was tapped I had to turn in $9 to the boss, and if 1 failed to do so he deducted the differ once out of my wages. That veiy sol idom happened though. The beer cost the bora two dollars a keg, and I have sold it eh high as thirteen dollars a keg; that meant four dollars for me at ter 1 had settled with tho boss. I lik ed to Bee a party corns in and com ruence drinking ponies of beer. They usually got about a tablespoonful o! leer at the bottom of several inches of froth, and it was wonderful how the keg would hold out. Then I had charge ot the lunch counter for a loug time and did pretty well there. The J boss bought the leanest hams he could get, averaging about twelve pounds each, and i had to tarn in ten dollars for every ham.

But there is in sight to day more ore than James Harriron saw when he came here forty odd years ago and figured out fortunes lor him sell and associates. The product exceeds 3,000,000 tons. The more exact figures are 3,085,000 tons. What doe 6 this mean ia dol lars? It is hard to say. But there has been times when iron Mountain ore was worth ten dollars a ton loaded upon the oars. It is even remember- ed that once a car load made up of picked ore brought fifteen a ton. This was an extra lot wanted for some spe cial work at Beckham’s Kimmswick furnace, and it brought an extra prico. The bulk of the product has gone at iue, eight and seven, with prices now ranging still lower. Perhaps, for a rough estimate, eight dollars a ton may be taken as a fair average. That means twenty five million for the pro duct. Early operations were primitive. The ore was picked up from the crest of the mountain in chunks, trundled down tho mountain side on tramways, and loaded on the cars ready for ship ment.' Pick and shovel dislodged the masses. Gravity furnished the power, for tho loaded ear going down, pulled the empty cue up. That was picking up dollars. Ono workman was good for six or eight tons a day. Ore was worth nine and ten dollars a ton, and 100 ears a day left tho mountain for the furnaces. Thfere wore periods when the ship ments want over 1,000 tons a day and eyery ton meant a five dollar bill to ha stockholders. A net income of :ive thousand a day. A piofit of fifteen million ficui twaiity-fiye million gross income. And yet here stands the mountain to-day, reduced in size, scarred and furrowed and tunneled, with more ore in eight than there was in 1884. The Salvation Aimy was organized in Lon ion in the year 1865 by the Rev. William Booth, tho preeut gen eral-in-Chief. He was brought np in the Chnrch of England, converted among the UoUodist, and afterward became a traveling preacher among them, and labored as sueh nntil 1861, when be gave bimeelf up with his wife to evangelistic work. Tho army has divisions aud divisional headqoarteis in Sweden, Switzerland, France, Ger many, Africa, India, Australia, new Zealand, Tasmania and the United States.
