with a spade; but more than this he
did not see, for the pastor turned sud-
denly around, as if some sound had
struck his ear, and Larsen, being
afraid of detection, let himself down
and ran away,
Thereupon the pastor's garden was
searched under the direction of the
Magistrate. The pastor welcomed the
searching party and called his farm
servants to aid. He was confident that
they would find nothing to confirm
the accusation against him. The
man Larsen wae asked to point out
the place where he had seen the pastor
digging in the moonlight. He pointed
to a heap of eabbage stalks and refuse.
They had not dug long when one of
them cried out: ‘Heaven preserve
nus!” and as all present crowded to look
a hat was visible above the earth.
“That is Niels's hat,” cried Morten.
“1 know it well. Hero is a security
we shall find him. Dig away!” he
shouted with fierce energy, and was |
almost as eagerly obeyed,
Soon an arm appeared and in a few |
minutes the entire corpse was disin- |
terred. There seemed to be no doubt |
that it was the missing man. The |
face could not be recognized, for the
features had been destroyed by blows:

‘““To use the words of a heathen for
the text of a Christian discourse was

remembered that the same thought,
expressed in well nigh the same
terms, was to be somewhere in
the Apocrypha. I sought and
sought, but could not find the pas-
sage. It was late; I was wearied by
much previous labor; I therefore went
to bed and soon fell asleep. Greatly
did I marvel the next morning when
on arising and seating myself at my
writing desk I saw before me, written
in my own handwriting on a piece of
paper: ‘Let no man be deemed happy |
before his end cometh.’ (Syrach., xi.,
34.)

Population of Large Cities.
Here is a scale of the increase of
population of the large cities of the
world between 1800 and 1890. com-
piled from a recent publication. Dur.
ing the intervals named Amsterdam,
Birmingham, Brussels, Manchester
and Rome have been doubled, Copen-
hagen and Marseilles tripled, and
Prague, Lyons, St. Petersburg, Paris
and London quadrupled. In Dres-
den, Cologne, Breslau, Hamburg and
Vienna, the population is five times
more numerous than it was in the be-
ginning of the century; it is six times
greater in Liverpool and Warsaw;
seven times greater in Sheffield and
Glasgow; eight times in Munich;
nine times in Leipzig, Budapest and
Berlin, and ten times in Baltimore.
But nowhere has the increase been so
phenomenal as in New York, Phila
delphia, Chicago and Brooklyn. The
first two now have twenty-five times
as many inhabitants as in 1800, while
in Chicago they have increased in the
proportion of 1 to 245, and in Brook-
lyn they are 339 times as many as
they were a hundred years ago.
