Burdetto mado a few remarks last week to encourage the Beth Eden Christian Endeavor Society. which held its hrat, anniversary in the church, 'Broad and Spruce Streets, Philadelphia.. Mr. Burdette' told them ho hadn't prepared anvthincr to sav. .for he'd been.out of doors, a good deal lately building a nenbouso that was a thing ot beauty,. architecturally speak- in p. after he had persuaded it. to stand up, and then made some observations on nens in general, ana some other topics, all calculated to make life a pleasant thing to bis hearers. He read some of these observations from newspaper clippings that he had out out and then put' them at one side of , the pulpit, telling-tbe congregation in continence mat next Sunday, when Mr. xseckiey, the pastor, was making a bulletin board of himself ho might mis tako one of tbo cuppings for a notico and read it. Ho (Mr. Burdette) didn't think it would do any barm if he did. When ho began to talk about Christian Endeavor societies this is the substance omitting tro digression from tho sub jeo , of what he said : "There never was1 a pastor who was at a loss to find work, for his young people to do and yoanover saw a Sun- day school where the teacherB lacked work. And to prepare the young people, to teach them how to do church work, is the good thing these societies do. A zealous man may unmeaningly do a great' deal of mischief from ienor - anoe of tho right way to work. I can't advise you how to do your work, for I grow up without the advantages of in - formatiou cu these societies. I'll illus- irate what I mean by these advantages, "When 1 gavo up boing a trustee of a church, because trusties don't have anything to do, and became a deacon. I made up my mind to do something, I decided to look out for tho strancers who might Httend the servioes and took" a back Beat on Sunday morning. An oia man, came in. l waso t vurv well acquainted with the members, but 1 was Biiro ho .was a stranger. I took him by the arm to show him to the ow ot a man I fell suro wasn't coming that day. ,1 didn't know whoso now it was, but it was a good one, well for ward. Tho elderly stranger seemed bashful, and didn't want to go way up mere wanted to sup mtQ a stdq. pew but I mado him go along with me, and seated him, gave him a hymn doqk upsido down at a random page. I noticed some people Hiuilinir, but I thought it was only at my awkwaid- ness, for I wasn't used to showing Biraogers to seats, l hardly heard a word of tho sermon for thinking what a good pipes of church work I'd done to stait on. "And that man wai tho very oldest member of tho congregation. Ho wa beiocr baotised into that church about tbo timo I was being born." The rest of Mr. Burdettc's remarks were rather discursive and Irrelevant, and once, when no wa illustrating a poiut, ho whistled hymn tunes in the pulpit, but tbo congregation did not object, Addresses wero also mado by Albert Magilton, president of tho society, and John IV Ueokloy, pastor oi tbo church.

Spurrier was the son of a noted Mo. thodist minister and had a splendid odtioation. At an early n"0 ho mar-. ried well, and llfo was very bright for mm. Ono mortiinir ho left homo to tto to a neighboring towni promising to bo baok at night. Ho did not return. A week later his coat was found torn to pieces and it was noised about that he had been murdered. Two weeks later the suspected man was seon, riding the horse that spurrier had ridden away. Tho body was not found, howevor, and no arrests wero mado. Tho suspected mordorer died a few months later under suspicion, and it was said mado a oonfcssion of murder to his physician. Twonty yoars later a brother of tho missing man received a letter from him. Tho brothor tried to keep tho recolpt of tho letter a so cret, but a boy caught sight of it and walked twenty miles to inform tho do- sorted wifo and children of the matter. Tho brothor was immediately besieged about it, but he denied tho lcttor or that ho know anything of tho wander er. A year later, on a bed of siokness, he confessed that ho knew of his whereabouts. Ho said that. Spurrier mado a great stake in St. ,Louis, and had finally settled down in Hickory county Mo., subsequently removing to St. Joseph, where ho. embarked in business under an assumed, name. He was highly suooessf ul, and was wealthy at the timo of tho writing of the letter by which tho olew was obtained by his family, His oldest son at that timo set on foot an investigation of tho matter,, bnt being apprised of the searoh he suddenly closed out Mb busl ness and disappeared., ihis was twelvo years ago. Peonlo were found in St Josenh who knew a portion. of his history, but all traoes of him were lost and never a word was heard from him until, his arrival home. He brings with him evidence of wealth, and says he has come back to redress as far as possi ble tho wrongs inflated by his heart less desertion. His wife, left with family of small children, struggled along and brought them up respect ably, though always poor. They are now good citizens, and .the wife, near ly 70 years of age, has been tenderly oared for hv her children. A reunion of all their children, six in number, Was held, and the sequel of the un happy story promises to be as pleasant as it it bad been so ordered by the veriest, writer of fiction in the land. A Bear at a Quilting. BttDlN CREATES AN ' UNEXPECTED SENSA TION AND IB' LAID OUT BT A WOMAN. Last Saturday Nov. 3rd there was quilting bee at John Holiday's. Quilt iug bees are great occasions in the mountains, and .all the women within a radius of fifteen miles usually gather I at them. This was a big one. Mrs. I Holiday's hospitality was renowned I throughout her section. The older onuaren Doys agoa ii ana v were off at work with their father. The four younger wore banished to the little low upper room under the' roof, reached by a ladder. There they amused tnemseives as Dest tney coma wnue aooui tnirty congrcgatea aDout the, quilting frame below, and labored assiduously at sewing ana exchanging I nuws oi iuu neiguuoruaou. mia Hobday made friquent trips to the little kitoheu, where a savory dinner was preparing. it laeked about an hour of noon, Tho conversation of tho "quilters" had become very lively, and their laughter could be heard to the edge of the clearing. Then there was a heavy thump overhead. "What 8 tnatT ' ex claimed one of the women. "Onlv one of thsm ohildrcn tumbled over on the floor above," said Mrs, Holliday; "you needn't mind 'em." Probably they would have continued their quilting, but "them children" be gan to scream and one after another they came tumbling down the ladder. The last was tiieyouu est a little old, and girl, oho was only i years I be did 'tumble down," falling through the trap doo to the floor, but she was so fat' that her fall didn't hurt ber. She failed to bring with her the larger part of her pinafore, but her l mother didn't have time to notioo that, I or the next moment a big black bear popped through the opening right 1 alter tne children, lie turned a som- ersanit as ho fell, but "he held in. his daws tho missing portion of the baby' pwatoro. Soino of the women screamed aud I rushed for the door. These wero the younger ones. The older had steadier uervos. Thov bad lived in the moun tains all their lives; they had seon bears before. The children were seiz- ed by them, whilo Mrs. Holiday ran to tbo smoke house, where ber husband bad left bis rifle that morning after cleaning it out. Somebody might have been hurt, but the bear was slightly stunned his precipitous descent, and when recovered consciousness nobody waj within easy reach. The savory smell of the cooking dinner attracted him and ho pushed his way into tho littl KHonen. A piece of fat mutton was boiling in a kettle over tho fireplaoe, for Mrs. Holiday had not yet bought a stono. Bruin made for it and burnt his nose. While he was growling and rubbing his paws over his nose Mrs. Holsday puked the ritle in through the small window and shot him dead. The bear had been wandering along the cliff above the house, ills oxplt ations led him near the edgo au J ho lot bis fooling andltumbhd over and .... J struck on tho cabin below. The light boards gave way and he fell right in to tho group of children. They scat lered and the bear, following, tumbled down the ladder which served as stairway, llo was the ursl bear seen this sojson iu this part of Kentucky and weighed nearly 400 pounds.

Moore, Is our nthentiotty tor the 'following! remark- aoie moment whtoh occurred on the morning ot 10th inst., about 700 miles north-north west of, Cape Flattery. Ho states that tho attontion of tho crow was simultaneously directed or at tracted to tho cxlstonoo of blood float ing on tho nJiacont sea. Suoculstion was mo ns to tho immediate origin ot bo strange a spectacle, aud a careful watoh was kept to ascertain it. Eventually it was lound mat whale was blowing and spouting on tho loo sido of tho sohooncr, where tho blood was first noticed, and a partial solution to tho phenomenon was gain ed when a swordSsh darted up close, and following that torror of tho seas catno the enemy of whalodom, tho thrasher (ot killer, as the fish is some times designated). Tho thrasher Drang from the water somo ten foot into tho air, and with a penetrating crash aliuhtcd unon tho whale. A nerce conuiot ensued, ana tne result was that tho whale appeared to be ex hausted from tho attaok tho thrasner mado upon him. Recovering himself, however, tho wbalc, alter several ot. forts, succeeded in diving below, and camo up on tho starboard side of the schooner. Tho crew then took their whaling iron and struck at tho thrash- ... . ... Jl! 1 t.!. er, out unionunai'jiy am nut iuv uu vital part. Tho thrasher, following the whale, mado another savage at tack on his victim, and, hit for a sec ond time within tho sight of the crew, The whale appeared at this lunoturo trfbe in extremities, and tho swordfisb, realizing tho position, mado a further attack at this common enemy anu tabted tho Jonah-swallowing mon ster. All was now over: the whale s re inaininc strength was gone, and be was comnolled to succumb to nis late with tho graco of a doubly assailed warrior of tbo deep. After the death he floundered "topsv turvey," and the thrasher was observed to be luxuratlng on the choicest parts of the conquered dead. This is no mythical story of the sea, but an incident. ot peculiar in terest to thoso who realize the nosti lity existing between the thrasher and the whale and the characteristics of the swordfish. The latter knows no danger. He does not disoern betweon a floating hull and a buoyant whale. His sword is bound to penetrate either at all hazards and risks to himself, aud in th'B respect he is similiar to somo misguided non-amphibious oreatures, A TouoUng Scene. A touching scene was witnessed re ceotly in front of the Ohambors Street Jfolice Station, in JNow xoric as a prisoner, clad in most ragged clothes, ( was being lod to the police van a nine yellow dog-bonnded up to him, wag ging his tail, and joyfully frisked all around him. The first sight of tho dog brought the prisoner to a dead standstill. But he was promptly hus tled on and the dog trotted along close to his heels. As the fellow mounted the steps on the "Maria" ho cast a farewell look at the dog. The dog though, was going to, and up he leap ed to the step after his master, but an officer pushed him off, clapped the doors together and locked them. The little animal yelped and moaned pite ously, gazed imploringly into- the faces of the officers, first of one, then of the other,, wagging his tail and begging in moans to be let into the conveyance. But the.driver out ,tbe. scene short by whipping up tho horses, and away whirled tho Black Maria with the little yellow dog bounding. along behind.

Ono of thtso was' that tho water beinc so buoyant a boat would naturally uoaii niguor, ana tiioretoro aispiaco.iess watcri and tho other, that tho water being so. dense tho blade of tho oarj necessarily bad much moro purcbaeo, because of- tbo creat resistance' of tho heavy.., water.

These widds come from the mountain tops and hillsides whioh are onlv a tow miles to the eastward. Sometimes they rush down tho narrow, canons, and, stealing silently across tho plaint between the mountains and water, spend thoir force on a current of air coming- across the lako. from tho north At the, point of contact the storm will be terrihe, and, then there is great danger to unseaworthy vessels. It was aenerallv supposed that everything worth discovering in Colo rade and the other Hockv Mountain States and Territories had- beon dis covered loug ago. But-it eeerus that a waterfall as high as .Niagara and a thousand times iroro beautiful has es caped the sight seeing explorers until recently, wncn a miming party in quest of deer and bear found tho new waterfall instead. The fall lacks the volume of water whioh pours over the .Niagara preoipice, being only 800 feet in width at the brink, and so shallow that it dissolves into mist, (before reaching the bottom of llir., canon'. The beauty is derived from the rain bow effects produced bv the .mist.
