And yet you go into the pr. sen-e of a moral lep rosy that is as tnicd more dangerous to you as the death of th soul Is worse than death oftheliody. I will nn '.ertake to sav that nine-tenth' of the men who have i-eea ruined Ic our cities have been mine I by simplv Kolng to ohs- rvc wit hout any i lea of partici pating. Tho fact isthat underground citylitv Is a filthy, fuming, risking, pestiferous depth which blasts tiie eye tu.it looks at tt. In the reign of terror in 17'J'J in Paris people escap ing from the officers of the law pH into the fewers of the city and crawled and walked through miles of that awiul labyrinth, stifled with the atmosphere and almost dead, some ofthein, when they came out to tho river Beine, where they washed, themselves and again breathed the fresh nlr. But I hava to toll yaa that a great many of the men who tro on tho work of exploratloii fhrougTt the tin. derground gutter of New York Ufa never come out at any Beine lilver where they can wash o3 the pollution of the moral sewerage, btranger. it one 01 tne represen tatives ol a commercial establishment pro poses to take you and show you the "sights of the town and underground Sew York, say to him, ''Please, sir, what part ao you pro' pose to show me?" About sixteen years aero as a minister of religion I felt I had a divine eommissson to explore the iniquities of our cities, I did not ask counsel of my session or my presbytery or of the newspapers, but asking the com panionship of three prominent polioe officials and two of the elders of mv church I un rolled mj commission, and It said t "Son ol pian. dig ir.to the wait, And when I. Had digged into the wall behold a door, and He said go in and see the wicked abominations that are done here. Ami I went In and saw and behold !" Brought up in the country and surrounded by much paternal care, I had not until that time seen the haunts ol iniquity. By the (Trace of God defended, I lad never sowed my "wild oats. I bad somehow been able to tell front various sources something about the iniqui ties of the great cities and to preach against them, but l saw in the destruction of a great multitude of the people that there must be an inratuation and a temptation that nnd never been spoken about, and 1 snM, "I will explore." I saw thousands of men going down, and If there had been a spiritual per cussion answering to the physical percussion the whole air would have been full of the rumble and roar and crack and thundet o! the demolition, and this moment, If we should pause iu our service, we should hear the crash, craah ! Just as in the sickly se.t son you sometimes hear the bell nt the gate of the cemetery ringing almost incessantly, so I found that the bell nt the gate of the cemetery where ruined souls aro buried was toiling by day and tolling by eight. I stud "'I will explore." I went as a physician goes into a fever la.ireto to see what practical and useful in formation I might get. That would be a foolish doctor who would stand outside the door of an invalid writing a Latin prescrip tion. When the lecturer in a medical col lege is done with his lecture, he takes the students into tho dissecting room, and he shows them the reality. I went ant! saw and come forth to my pulpit to report a plague and to tell how sin dissects th& body and dissect9 the mind and dissects the soul, "dh," say you. "are you not nfraid that in consequence of such exploration of the ini quities of the city other persons might mike exploration and do themselves damage?" I reply. "If in company with the commis sioner of police, and the captain of police, and the inspector of polico and the com pany of two Christian gentlemen, and not with the spirit of curiosity, but that you may see sin in order the better to eomtiat it, then, in the name of the eternal God, go? But, if not. then stay away." Wellington, standing In the battlo ol Waterlooo when the bullets were buzzing around his head, saw a civilian on the flebt He said to him "Sir, what are you doing here? Be off !" "Why," replied the civilian, "there is no more danger here for me than there is for vou." Then Wellington flushed up and saitl, "(iod and my country demand hat I be here, but you have no errand here. Now I. as an officer in the army of Jesus Christ, went on that exploration and cn to that battlefield. If you bear a like commis sion, go. If not, stay away. But you say. 'lion t vou think that somehow the dserip- tion of those places induces people to go and see for themselves?'' I answer yes, just as much as tho description of yellew fever in some scourged city would induce people tr ro down there and get tne pestilence. But I may lie addressing some strangot tlrea lv destroyed. Where is he, that I mny pointedly yet kindly address him? Come anck and wash in the deep fountain of a Saviour's mercy.

A curious looking, white haired oil Jian, arrayed in a peculiar garb, with e black choker and broad brimmed hat, is at the Occidental Hotel. The old gen tleman is Isaac Sharp of Warwickshire, England, a Quaker and a religious en thusiast. He is now eighty-four years old and for fifty years he has been travel ing io various parts of the world, and this la the interest of the Quakers. He has just now returned from 1500 miles up the great Yang-tse-klang liiver In the interior ot China. Hitherto he has been in Iceland, Greenland, Labn dor, Norway, and in various other places in Europe, Asia and Africa. In the Dark Continent he visited the Congo Free State, the Orange Free State, Basu toland and Madagascar. "I spent a year and a half in Africa," said he, "a year of which was in Mada gascar; two years in Australia and New Zealand, and the remainder of six and a quarter years in Canada, the United btates and Mexico. That was the extent of mv last trip before this. This time C have been out a long time also, mygrci". object being to visit the interior of Chin i and do what I could there.

Some years ago, Mr. Hannay, of Glas gow, succeeded in making a few small gems, and another Glasgow chemist not long ago announced in an Amcricat scientific journal that be was making ex periments in this direction, and had ob tained promising results. Moissan, how ever, was the first to form a gem by means of the high temperature of tho electric furnace, though the idea of doing so is aot exactly novel. Moissan obtains a temperature of from 30UU to 4000 de grees Centigrade is hi electric cruc ible, and fuses Iron or silver, which ab sorbs the carbon of sugar. When the fused metal cools, part of the carbon separates from it again in the form of crystals, black or white that is to say, black diamond, or carbonado, and ordi nary clear diamond. The crystallization seems to be facilitated by pressure, which is produced by the expansion of the sugar carbon as it cools. The diamond crys tals were exceedingly minute, and quite unfit for jewelry. Moreover, the process is very expensive. Manchester Times. A Un:qne Heading CI at).

In Columbia County, Ta., right nt tho foot of a spur or tho North Mountains, is tho homo of Amos Cop, a sturdy youn farmer. A Scr.uiton newspaper man drove from Berwick to the Coiw farm In Arler thnt th accuracy of aa interesting rumor might be determined. He had nearly reached the farm when ho observed a woman coming toivards him from the fields near by nnl walking somewhat rapidly. He was not certain that he was on the right road and, awaiting her corning, in quired as to where Amos Cope lived. Being told that the farm house just ahead was the place, he said he had como out to see Mrs. Cope, and wis fairly startled when she r-v plied, am Mrs. Cope." She was about thirty years old her eyes flashed with hrinhtness, an 1 her cheeks were of that healthful plow that is so common among the wives and daughters of farmers. She had been out s.i!herin' raspberries and was closing up a day's picking of about forty quarts. Being asked concerning her sick ness and recovery, she-stnte.l explicitly and unreservedly that sho regarded her present health better than it had beon In ynrs. "All of Inst year, ami part of the previous one," she said, "I just mop?d ahout the houS3 un able to do anythinc, in bed perhaps more than half the time, and was treated by all the doctors of the noariy towns, gome of them doctored mo for dy.sp -psia, others for in flammation of the stomach and rheumatism while pleurisy of tho left side, and even in flammation of the brain (for there were times when I knew not what I w.is doing) engaged tho attention of others. They all seemed at stb, but I did everything; they dirocted, but without avail. "Uterine anil stomach troubles also at tended the general breaking down of my strength and body, and just before last Christmas I was forced to bed from whjeli I did not arise until during last March. Then none of my friends thought I would ever get well. Medicines without stint were bought and taken, so much so that I Anally lost all hope of life and was ready to resign myself to (iod's will. It was then my husband read of a medicine called Dr. Williams' Tink Tills. He got the pills, and to please him I began their use just as the directions said they should be taken. Before the first box was used I could feel a decided change ; my ap petite was returning ; I was no longer dis tressed by gases on my stomach ; IcouMfeel the blood passing through my veins, and there was no more cf that terrible pain in the region of the heart. My head became clearer and clearer, and before the second box was used I was out ot bed. I am now using the sixth box. and am so much Im proved that I foel that any of the drudgery on the farm thnt is a woman's work I can now perform. We bought the rink Pills at Dr. h. Reagan & Co.'s drug store on Front St.. In Berwick."

Excepting in tho family circle and the places of worship the pres ence of woman is unknown as a feature of the association. The men live a sort ef club life.

One object of the costume is to obliterate all distinctions between the rich and poor in apparel. In this all women look alike excepting only the different appearance in stature. As a result no man can know his wife or sister on tho street or in a public place. Since the chadm covers the head it does away with tho hat or bonnet.
