This, That and th Other, This: In the changes incident to hnman life wo are frequently re minded of an axiom wbicb every Odd Fellow has received from venerable friend. The change come from a thousand causes, and often when least expected. Some spend their lives in the taino com munity.and the same scene, breath r . a M a ing tne same air, and nnaiij pass away sincerely mourned by a small circle of sincere friends. Others are thrown in busy circles where there is car and turmoil. Like ships meeting- noon the sea, they meet people, paes hailing, and are gone. Others yet are ia those sparsely settled regions where there Is no Ia bnt tne nip pocket, riot many realize the aggregate number . " ..... i . wbo are thus living. .Nature has shown her contempt of gold by scattering it around on the most worthless parts of the earth. Men, however, will scale mountain sides, hazard dangerous canyons and en dure the waterless deserts to disco v er and gather that which nature has thrown away. The lives ot such men are paradoxical, while of the world they are not in it : ana tbongh in it. they are out ot it. That: The gold hunters may be hundreds of miles from fraternal lodires. church or even a little red school house. Cut off from the ro fineinenta of civilitod life, social en joyments or com lor t of home, they live In memory ana hopo. mere is a past and a prospective future, but no present. Day after day for weeks, months, and even years they delve and toil. They suffer hard ships and privations which else where would be intolerable, ihey freeze in cold, swelter in heat, starve for food and famish for water. Thoy are swept by night winds and soroc- cos, with no place for shelter. They are blinded by swirling snow, faces cut by driving sands, and wearily uunt for loet trails. 1 he moon looks down coldly, and the son's rays blister. They sloop under the canopy of heaven, disturbed by the bark of the mean coyote, the wild err of the mountain lion and the whirr of the rattlesnake, and all tor a handful of stuff men call gold. They hope that when sucoees is achieved, to again be with family and friends, to again move in soci ety and become a factor among men. Perhaps the privations en dured may steady the mind, temper the passions, and teach an appreci ation of advantages of which we are too often careless and neglectful. They may awaken a keen sense of social enjoyment never before fully understood or appreciated. There fore, improved and mellowed by rugged experience, their time will not nave been wasted, proviaea tne hoped success is realised. The Other: Wherever we may go, we find Odd Fellows. Wher ever there is a country or section to be built up and developed, we find men whose lives have been squared by the emblem of tripple links. In camps where there ia no local taw there are desperadoes : men whose chiel industry is robbing and pil lage, and to whom shooting and stabbing their fellowmen is pas time In such camps and under such conditions, fraternal Fellows quickly come together. Their lodges may be separated by latitud inal lines broad as the zones, but the principles are tbe enduring same. Under such conditions the obligations are no meaningless words. Many a valuable life has been saved, and many a time order has been brought out of chaos and wholesome government established by Odd Fellows and Masons. "OaTSis Other Side."

There is a widespread demand for a change of the present law. A report like a gun-shct sounded in the direction of King's drug store, and it was beard all over the business portion ot the city. A wild rush was made from all quarters and great excitement prevailed. To the astonishment of the multitude who expected to see tbe bullet riddled body of one man, at least a wrecked bicycle lay before them. The bicycle had been placed is tbe sun in front of the drug store and one ot tbe tires baa exploded, wrecking the wheel end shattering other parts. Fayetteville Observer. Dr. R. K.

In addition to the dais for propelling it, it baa a d-bar with crank, wheels and chain attachments ao geared as to give the rider full power of his arms, and tbe muerJee of his should ers and eheet in propelling the ma chine. The inventor claims that his wheel will enable him to ride with much greater speed, and more ease and far lea fatigue than other bicycles as the rider sees the mnacle force of his whole body instead of bis leg alone. God's Active Pretoncs. "Rolidon. as so understood, car ries with it a sense of divine things and a certain appreciation of Uod i righteous authority and govern am." writes Rev. Charles If. Park hnmL I). D.. in a uaoor onA- Yonmr Man's Religious Life," in July Ladies' Home Journal. "There is as mucn dinerence among men in the distinctness of their religious discernments as in that of their in tellectual or artistic discernments. John and Charles may differ in the facility with which they appreciate the cardinal principles of arithmetic, and there may be tbe same amount 01 aiuerence in tne nwuinesa wuu , rr ? . 1 - I . t which they lay hold upon the class ot realities covered by the term religion. It wonld be stupid in student to conclude that because astronomy means less to him than it does to his elassmate, therefore as tronomy is a myth and the finer the astronomer toe greater the fool Young men reason in that way about religion, and witb no loss ot dis credit to their sagacity. ' Religion, i 1 have just Intimated, carries ith it a sense of Gods active Eresence in the affairs of nature and istory, and a certain appreciation of His righteous authority and gov e ranee. I mention these particulars because of their direct and practical beating upon the tone of a man s mind and the quality of his life ; for it is only with religion as practical and concrete affair that we have at present to do. The sense of God's workir.g presence in nature renders material service by afford- ng the foundation back to which a man s thoughts, wbon bard pressed and wearied, can easily retreat. It works in us soadity of conviction by uncovering to ns a basis of ia finite intelligence down upon which everything rests, for instance, in tbe stndv ot the heavens it recruits our minds from the tiring quest of astronomic details and lets us feel the support of a mind older and wider than the heavens, down into which all such details enter as ground of permanence and co herency. And between construction eodlees science and a science religiously architcctured there ia all the difference in its effects upon the personal quality and fibre of the builder that there is between erect ing castles in the air and founding them npon the ground." Japan's Tidal Wire. The latest news from the Island of Yesso, which has recently been submerged .by a tidal wave, is so terrible as to almost daze one s lac- nlties of comprehension. Thirty thousand people are reported to have lost their lives in that awtul cataclysm. It is by long odds tbe most disastrous visitation resulting from volcanic upheaval of the ocean bed that has been recorded witb in the present century. The nearest approach so far as the loss of life is concerned, were tbe earthquake and tidal wave in the Straits of Sunda, about ten or twelve years ago, where between 15,000 and 20,000 persons were engulfed, whole islands isappeared beneath tbe waters, and new formations were cast up in their stead. Human science thst brings the stars to earth, stands helpless and dumbfounded before seismic phe nomena, and these gigantic subma rine convulsions, ft can determine the direction and duration of seismic shocks, but further than that it can not go. It fails to tell tbe cause of earthquakes in different parts of tbe world. After tbe Charleston earth quake of 1886, scientists from all parts of the country went to South Carolina, and after long and patient Investigation, each arrived at a dif ferent conclusion as to the cause of the disturbance. And so with oth er earthquakes With tidal waves it is still more helpless. UI those it is neither able to give warning as can be done in some localities, near Vesuvius, for instance, in the event of earthquakes, nor determine the whence and tbe whither. Here nature baffles all human skill and ingenuity, and by the fearful exhi bition ot its latent power, and by nchaining its bidden forces, seems to mock tbe pnny efforts of man to wrest her secrets from her and rear safeguards against ber destructive moods. Perhaps science may some time solve the mystery of all these phe nomena, but it is doubtful it men s most searching efforts will ever 'jo more thsn blind guesses. Tbe above extract is clipped from the Washington Times. That pa per fails to state that astrologists oretold tbe coming of the earth quakes at Charleston and the Island of Yesso.

In a low years they will control every profession and every branch of commerce and industry. Thelargeet commercial interests of .New Y ork are already in their hands. The day is fast approaching when an anti-Christ will arise among tbe Jews wbo will devastate tbe na tions of Europe and build up in alestine tbe most powerful king dom on earth." To ascertain the wealth of the Jews in New York, Tbe Morning Journal, ot that city, collected some interesting statistics. These show that tbe richest Jew in New York s Henry Hart, chief owner ot the Third avenue cable road, and be stands thirty-third in tbe list. There are about 7,000,000 Jews the world, ont of a total popula tion of 1,480,000,000 a proportion of more than 200 to 1. Then, of these 7,000,000, more than two thirds are in Russia, where they are poor, ignorant and oppressed. New York has about 350,000 Jews, and one third of these live on the east aide. Not even the wealthier of the other two-thirds control steam, street or elevated railroads, the tele graph or telephone monopolies. Uenjamin has taken his downfall philosophically, and seems to live almost entirely in the past. Many tale be tells of tbe giants of finance, of Vanderbilt, Gonld and Jim risk. He participated in tbe historical incident in which the old commodore brought Jay Gould to terms, on the occasion of the Utters attempt to flood the market with illegal freshly issued stock while Vanderbilt was trying to corner tbe market Benjamin was the go-between ; he acted for the commodore, and often tells how he tracked Gould from his office to Delmon ioo's, and thence home, and at last brought him to terms. Benjamin's admiration for tbe original Van derbilt is unbounded. ''The smartest man this country ever produced," be declares him to have been, and when others talk of Gould, he is fervent in his comparison of Van derbilt to the others disadvantage.

A New York teleirram aavs tbs Charles Fennolly was struck by lightning and instantly killed bud day afternoon in an orchard in i id bett's Brook lane, Kingsbridge. Ilia companion, Miss Louisa Costello, was stunned and paralysed. The man and womu were in the act of kissing each other when struck. Fennelly and the girl were to have been married, but tbey quarreled and separated. I bey were reconciled yesterday, but their joy was short lived. According to Miss Costello s story she and Fen neiiy attended mass in the same church yesterday morning and through common friends they met again. llielr affection for each other bad mwi uiiuiuwur;vi BUM 1U t VIJUI tlUJa? they made up the quarrel and deter fitsV ) ie-v-k ' r, foil,! an1 Ith afe alAat , mined to celebrate tbe event with an outing. At 11 o'clock in the morning they went to Van Ccrt-1 landt park, and, after spending sev eral noun there, they wandered over to Dhsh's orchard in Fidbett's Brook lane, near Van Cortlandt av- enuo. Ihey sat down under chorry tree, and having a great deal to say to each other, neither noticed the night ot time nor thedaik bank of clouds which had gathered in tbe western sky. There was finally muttering of distant thunder, and when a tew drops oi rain fell the lovers started up and walked out of tbe orchard, intending to go home. Louisa took off her bat and Fennel ly threw his coat over her head. When they reached the road the rain began to fall heavily, and the lovers, thinking that the storm would soon blow over, determined to return to the shelter of the cherry tree. Fennelly helped the girl to the top of the old stone wall that sur rounds tbe orchard. With a fright ened laugh, Louisa jumped, and ennelly canght her and kissed her. At that instant there waa a blind ing flash of lightning, and both fell to tbe ground. The bolt struck ennelly on the left shoulder, tear ing the sleeve of his shirt into rib bons, and killing him instantly, af ter which it glanced off and struck the girl on the right shoulder. The sleeve of her light shirt waist was burned through, and lightning left its impress in the form of a huge black mark npon her skin. ihe girl's left side is paralyzed. and while she will recover, it is by no means certain that she will ever regain the use of her arm and leg. How Death Feels. "I was reading an article this morning on how it feels to -Oie, ' said Dr. W. H. Epworth. "No living man can tell how death feels, or whether the actual act of dissolu tion is accompanied by sensation or not A man who, through disease or casualty, has lost consciousness bss become to all appearances dead and is then resuscitated, can really tell us nothing about it, for he did not die. The machinery did not come to a complete standstill tbe life force did not leave tbe body. t may be that tbe poet has dipped deeper than th physician into the awtul mystery 'of death. It may be that be has described terrors not visible to the eyes of the medical man, who interests himself only in the condition of tbe animal mechan ism. I have stood by the deathbed of men wbo told me they were going to hell, and saw them pass peace fully to their long sleep. 1 have looked at their dead faces a tew minutes later and saw thereon a ook of fear, of horror, that was not visible when the heart gave its last faint throb and then stood still. I have had others tell me almost with their last breath that they were go ing to heaven. Tbey passed away with wan, weary taeeavtbat were pitiful to contemplate, but before they became rigid a smile as sweet as an angel's dream overspread tbe pallid features.. Tbe deep lines of suffering faded out and tbe aged looked almost youthful, tbe weary and worn became radiant- What causes this change, which every physician has noticed t When does death 'occur I We mj when the animal machinery stops, when the breath and pulse cease. that is what the doctor cam death, but it may not really be death alter an. i be spirit may not leave the body, may not take its departure from earth with its last breath, the last faint heart beat It may cling for some moments to its shattered tenement before it takes its flight, before it faces those terrors or enters into those transcendent glories which the poet baa painted.

Let Mount Airy Gold Bu(t Read and Think, While the dominant infiBencee in New England are against silver, there is much latent sentiment there in favor of its free coinage. The election of four silver men In Maine as dolep ates to the Democratic Na tlonal Convention is the best evi dence of the existence of sentiment favorable to silver. Even in Massa chusetts, tbe home of Lodge and the summer home of Cleveland, there are more advocates of tbe white aselal than- the. gold-. men hare dreamed of in their philosophy, Not many days ago the Springfield Republican, the leading paper of New Juigland in point of influence. contained an able editorial against tree coinage. 1 he next day a cor- res pon cent, in a short reply, as tol lows, made some telling points: "Your article on the silver ques tion in the Issue of June 16 is ad mirable and open to criticism on only one point Tbe bullion value of both gold and silver is so affect ed by its coinage privileges that the exclusion of either from the mints has instantly been followed by a fall n lis price. Ihe free coinage of both by international agreement is conceded by all students of econom ics as able to put both instantly on a parity of bullion value, because they both are then equally legal tender lor all debts. Now if the United States recog nizes this as true in its relations to foreign nations, what must be the effect if it puts both on a coinage equality at its own mints t Exact ly what you Bay, the price of silver rises ia its coinage vaiue towara parity with gold and the bullion value must rise with it It will not stop at 75 or go to less than 100 per cent in this nation, at least It gold is preferred in the for eign market as a coinage metal, it can go there, but American com modities will be reckoned upon coinage rather than bullion value, and tbe system of bond issues to maintain gold payments will cease at once. If this is going to a silver basis, as is claimed by some politv cai economists, the sooner we get there the better, as with tbe open ng of the mints to free coinage American industries are freed from bondage to foreign competition and influence, i be closing of tbe mar' kets in the great miuing States by the present policy has been fraught with business disaster to all tbe na tion, and at last the question is now before the American people for in telligent action. To adopt tbe gold standard for America is to close the great ming districts to farther de velopment. Can we afford to do this' It also demands the estab lishment of a permanent National debt' If the country is to try to meet the exigencies ot coin pay ments for its obligations, Any fur ther light from your columns will be gratefully welcomed by boats of people in- xtew x.ngiano, woo ao not now why these questions have been forced to the front so power fully by the Western and Southern part of the nation.".
