Dovrs Prove to Be Slacker. The Old Fort Homing club of Fort Wayne sent a number of corrler pi geons to Los Angeles, says the Los Angeles Times, In order to get them In training for military service. A few days ago Chief of I'ollco Butler re leased the birds, Intrusting each with a tiny roll of tlssuo paper, bearing mes sages from the mayor to .officials of the Indiana city. Six of the birds have not been heard from, anil it Is probable thnt they are happy on their way back homo. Two of them, however, refused to be drafted and returned to the cen tral police station, where they were caught and placed In a crate. Los Angeles Is pigeons' paradise, but this Is no time for doves of peace, it seems. The birds lost more than they gained by their desertion. Such Is the fate of slackers.

"It Is my wish that when I die my body shall bo burnt to ashes, and tho ashes sent to my beloved Japan. Let some member of my family take these ashes and go off Into the orchards where the sweet cherry blossoms perfume- the air, and scatter these ashes to the four winds, that I may spend all eternity among the hills of the land I love." This Is the message addressed to the ofllelals of the Japanese associa tion, that was found nfter the death of Kochu Iba, valet to soveral promi nent dub men of New York. Iba was horn In Japan about thirty years ago and came to this country to becomo an Importer. His family Is well known In politics In Japan, and several of his uncles are lu -tho Japuueso navy. He was a member of the Japanese as sociation. His body was cremated and tho ashes will bo sent to Japan. Independence In Dying. "Dying without n doctor's aid" Is one of tho latest evidences of tho spirit of revolt abroad. Luther started a successful revolt against religious au tocracy; the French nntlon revolted against the polltlcul hlerurchy; our own ago has seen great uprisings against -economic tyrants. But now we have the first Indication of rebel lion against these despots of our bod ies. One may remark that dying U not tho best way of spiting the doc tors ; nor Is It to the material minded, any more than harnklrl. But shuffling off without a doctor's old, perhaps In n manner not approved of by the fa' culty, is not only to make a martyr of one self; it strikes the profession at the root, demonstrating that death cun take place without tho assistance of a man with a black bag. Slowly ninnklnd works up to freedom In all directions. New York Post. What She Broke.

"K-kiss me once before we part, my love," and sho flung herself Into his arms. "My own," sho walled, "have' I broken you heart?" Reginald disentangled himself with dlihculty.

The remnant which returned had now becoHje settled In their new hoiuei As It would be a considerable time be fore the temple could be rebuilt, ar rangement was made for the religious' life as early as possible,' as religion as the very heart of the nation's life They first et up the altar of the God of Israel (:j;l-3) and offered burnt of ferings thereon. They next revived tho annual festivals (3:4-7) which had a powerful, unifying Influence upon them. I. The Appointment of Officers to Set Forward the Work of the Lord's House (v. 8, 0). Overseers were need ed to direct this great work. Rubbish needed to be clou rod away so the build ing operations could begin; timber needed to bo cut In the Lebanon forest and floated down to Joppn; stones needed to be cut from the quarries ; In--telllgent and consecrated men wer needed to direct this work, as It was1 needful that It be done with tho utmost expedition. The Lord's house demands the most systematic adjustment of Its labors. Mere zeal will not make up for lock of Intelligence. II. The Foundation of the Temple Laid (.1:10 This was done amid great rejoicing. The consciousness that the Lord's house was taking shape, even though the mere foundations could be seen, provoked great enthu siasm on tho purt of the people. Mu-J slclans were appointed to furnish mu sic while the work wos being done. Un dor the Influence of music men will do better work, armies will march and fight better when bands are playing; While there was great Joy, there was also, mingled sorrow. This was on the part of the elders who had seen the former temple. The meanness of the present temple In comparison with' Solomon's temple caused their praise to be drowned with their sorrow.1 These people belonged to that class who think that nothing now Is so good as In tho former days. So completely were these voices commingled thnt thei people could not discern the one from the other. III. The Building of the Temple De layed by Opposition. (Chapters 4 and .1). For n time matters went smoothly with them, but as soon as the work; had taken such shape as to show that there wos some prospect of success, the half-heathen Samaritans begun td oppose them. No vital work of God will be allowed to go on without oppo sition. Satan resents and bitterly op. poses all Inroads upon his kingdom. These Samaritans sought to frustrata this work of God by: (1) An Alllnnce With the Jews (4 :2, 3). They wanted to bring the work In harmony with their own religious practices, as God's pure worship would be a constant rebuke to thpm. This Is over the wny of the world, to seek to effect a compromise with God's chlN dren ; but God's call Is separation. "Come out from among them" (2 Cor. (1:14-18). Nothing so weakens God's cause as worldly alliance and compro mise. There Is but one answer to be given to such an offer of compromise. "Ye have nothing to do with us In building a house unto our God." Ws are in the world, hut not of the world, i (2) Weokeulng the Hands of the I'eoplo (4:4). Doubtless tills Included the withdrawal of supplies, the spread ing of dissension among the workmen, and the employment of counselors agnlnst them. (3) Letters of Accusation to the Per sian King (4 :0, 7). So severe was this opposition that the building was de layed for a term of years. These coun selors succeeded In creating doubt ns to whether Cyrus had ever issued a de cree for their return. This wicked op position resulted In the undoing of the opposers, for search was made and a copy was found. Darius confirmed this by his own decree, and directed thnt aid be given from the roynl taxes so that tho house of God might be built. IV. The Temple Completed and Dedi cated (0:14-18). Tho Prophets Hnggal and Zaehorlnh now appear, and by warnings, exortnttons and entreaties stir up the people so that the work goes forward to a successful comple tion. Without their aid probably the work would never have been completed. Human nature at times needs to be cheered and urged forward. These prophets did not themselves work In the building of the walls, yet their wort; was of even greater Importance. It Is generally found that this Is so with the religious leaders today. Tho words of cheer and encouragement of the Christian minister are needed daily for those who labor In the build-' ing of the Lord's house, Wero It not for them mnny would give up the strug gle. When the building was finished it was dedicated to Ood with great Joy. This was possible becauso they had bullded and finished their task accord ing to the commandment of the God of Israel. The service of dedication was much after the order of thnt of Solo mon's temple, only on n loss mngnlfl cent seale. ' Indifference of Knowledge.
