The Senior Bereau Lesson for Sunday, July 15, IIIOO. THE GENTILE WOMAN'S FAITH. 24. And from tlincv he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon," and.entered into a house, and would have no man know it; but he could not be hid. 25. For u certain Woman, whose younj? daughter had an unclean spirit, heard ol' him, and came and fell at his feet: 26. The woman was a Greek, a Sy-ro-phoe-ni-ri-an by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter. 27. But Jesus said unto her. Let the children lirst be tilled; for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. 28. And she answered and said unto him. Yes. Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs. 29. And he said unto her. For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter. 30. And when she was come to her house, she found tin* devil gone out. and her daughter laid upon the bed. Golden Text.—Lord, help me.—Matt. 15. 25^ OTIIFiit HELPS TO STFDY. I. Great Sorrow, verses 24-27—24. From thence—From Capernaum or its vicinity. He arose—His countrymen were loginning to be hostile. Into the borders of Tyre and Sidon—From Capernaum to Tyre is about thirty-live miles. Ho and his disciples probably walked all the way. Entered into a house, and would have no man know it—He had come to Phoenicia, a heathen country, not as a teacher or a worker of miracles, but for rest and safety, lie could not be hid—He. was probably known by sight to some. 25. Young daughter—“Little daughter." Unclean spirit—A spirit at once weak in morals, physically diseased, and insane. Exactly what demoniacal possession was we do not know, but we are not entirely ignorant of the insanity which has its roots in sin. such, for example, as delirium tremens. 26. A Greek—Palestinians used this word to describe all Gentiles. A Syrophoenicinn by nation—A Phoenician of Syria by race, as distinguished from the Phoenicians of Africa, whom we 4-all Carthagians. The tier!!—A demon. 27. Jesus said unto her—Read the account in Matthew for many additional facts. Lot the children first Is* filled—Let the Jews, the chosen people of God. have the spiritual right of way. The dogs—The phrase was a common one to describe Gentiles. Dogs are not commonly kept in the East as pets or defenders. They are the scavengers of the streets, and are a symb.l of outcasts of all sorts. II. Great Faith, verses 28-30—2S Yes. I/ord—This woman truly an I firmly believed in the power and wil lingnefes of Jesus to help her, She understood his words better than some modern Christians. 28. For this saying go thy way—Clever as was the woman, it was her faith, not her cleverness, that won her daughter’s cure. CO. ‘ She found th rt devil gone out— God’s universal mercy Is taught by this incident. . Whoever turns to God is received by idm. and may eat of “t he children's crumbs.” t SiTTii AT HOME. I. Great Sorrow, verses 24-27. Of what race were the people of Tyre and •Sidon? Why did Jesus go among them? Why did he hot preach the gospel among them? M hot sort of religion had tlmy? What do you understand by “unclean spirit?” Explain “Greek,” “Syrophoenieian.” “by nation.” To whom did Jesus refer by “the children?” '‘To whom did lie refer by ‘‘the dogs?” Jf our Lord had never taught the universality of the love of God, what might this phrase mean? Since he taught it plainly, what does it mean? II. Great Faith. verses 28-20. Wherein does this woman show the spirit of true prayer? How did our Lord receive her reply? What statement did In* make about her daughter’s condition? Has Jesus intended to indorse Jewish prejudice against the Gentiles? At this time were the disciples allowed to go to the Gentiles? What grounds had the woman for faith in this ease? is it probable that she would have suY-reeded without the earnest and importunate pra ver of fa it b ? TRUTHS TO REMEMBER. 1. Carry your troubles to God. "He careth for you." Ho sympathizes with human need. He loves to ’►e trusted. Gall on bins; tell him all your cares and sorrows. 2. Delay is not refusal. Faith nev er worries. ■•Walt on tin* Lord ” The answer is sun*. Jesus answered nothing at first to the woman's cry. Yet she pleaded humbly, earnestly, persistently. believingly. May not we learn a lesson? 3. Great grace is God's gift of love. He delights in giving. Ills is royal bounty. It covers our utmost need; it surpasses our most daring faith.. "Grace upon grace” is the divine older and measure. Float log Gardena. The I»rd Roberts who is in Africa commanding the British army in the wai against the Boers went to India when a very young man. and. like all bright people, he kept bis eyes open, and while on a visit to the famous valley of Kashmir, he noticed some curious gardens in the city of Srinagar. This capital city of 'Kashmir has been called the Venice of the East, because of the lake, the river and canals around which the city Is built. The natives construct floating gar dims on this lake, which Lord Roberts says were exceedingly curious and pretty. The lake is nowhere more than ten or twelve feet deep. These gardens are made by driving stakes into the bed of the lake, long enough to project three or four feet above the water. These stakes are placed at intervals In an oblong form and are bound together by reeds and rushes twined in and out md across, until a kind of stationary raft is made, on which turf and earth and piled. In this toil seeds are sown, and the melons and other fruits raised in these fertile beds are fine and abundant.—Conke,''’# Home Journal.

‘A CONDUCTOR'S NERVE. Teotk Option >011 Two Entire KancfftH Towns and Worked a Bourn to a Finish. Newton. Kan., special to the St. Louis I‘os-t-1 tispateh: On Main street, near the court house, there is a cellar with a complete foundation. The cellar appears to be the dumping place for all trash. For nearly twenty years the foundation and cellar have been just as they are now. with the exception that time and neglect have left their earmarks. Any one who asks is told: “That’s tut far as Ed YVooliger got with his big hotel.” And as long as the cellar and foundation remain just so long will they be a monument to tin* nerve of a man who started with nothing, made $3U0,000 in two months, went brokp in one week, owing nearly $100,000. and is now working on a railroad. That is the history of Ed Wooliger. Along about 188i Woligcr was a conductor running a passenger train ou the Santa Fee from Newton io Wichita. it was at this time when a crowd of shrewd real estate speculators dropped into Wichita. They ijuietly bought up acres and non s of land in and around tin* city. These were subdivided and when everything was in shape the "boom” was sprung. The speculators were backed by a large fund. They announced that they were going to build a broom factory that would employ 5.0tl() men. And then they proceeded to build the factory. Then they gave it out that there was a big flour mill going up. and up it went. Tin'll followed big hotels ami office buildings. The people went wild. They flocked from all parts of Kansas and on one day there Were 40.000 excited men and women on tin* streets of Wichita buying corner lots and ottering fabulous sums for "business sites.” All this time the speculators were reaping the harvest of their well planned game. One of them who caught the fever was Gonduetor Wooliger. He caught it early in the game, and In* had it bad. lie saw that the people wen* real estate mad. so In* mortgaged his .home in this city for $1,000 and used it in Wichita. He jumped into the game with both feel. He lirst got an option on a corner lot upon which then* was a small frame building used as a saloon, lie bought it for $4,000. ami sold it for $5,000, making $1,000 in less than an hour. That was Ids start. lie bought and sold that afternoon several small pieces of real estate and his earnings that day wen* nearly $3,000. He took his train out that evening and went back to Newton as la* only had a fourhour layover in Wichita. The lirst thing he did was to lift his mortgage and with his profits he began to deal in a more reckless manner. He gave enonn jus options and he was soon looked upon as a danger ous operator. Although be only had four hours each day in which t j work, yet it was said of him that "Ed Wool iger can do more in four hours than some men can do in four weeks.” He is known to have bought ami sold and reboughr and resold one whole block of property in four hours, all of which netted him a large sum. But Wi. hifa was not the only boom town. Th ■ foyer struck Caldwell, Arkansas City and Newton. Wooliger had a crack at all of these, and in two months he was worth $300,000. His friends Wanted him to quit, but lit* declared be was going to have a cool mililoq before he HU it. So he continued in ids v. iid and reckless speculation. lie decided to make one grand plunge and ordered tin* building of the Intel in N •wton. He bought the property and gave tin* contraet. He tin n proceeded to get an option on every available piece of real estate in Wieblta and Newton. The speculators saw they bad a good elKiin-e to drop out. and Conductor Wooliger was “in up m his neck." He virtually owned iln* town of Wichita and Newton, but now that he bid them, what was he io do wi;h them? He could find no buyers. The shrewd speculators who had started the boom dropped out and the boom came down much faster than it went up. Woolig1 r tried to stop the collapse, lb- t-atjs;*d sales of property ai low figure-, hoping to cause a revival, but he was up against it. He could not find “suckers" wilting to pay $500 a foot for property worth $5 an acre, ami in Title over a week Wooliger was called up m to meet $300,000 in options. He met them all. but lie could no* meet sonic where Tel ween $60,000 and $100,000. and be went under. That is why tin* 1 !g cellar and foundation are just the same. When Wooliger went under so did his proposed monster lintel. Bit; during all the time lie was making his big real estate deals involving thousands and thousands of della-'. Wooliger never ga ve up bis job as eonilueJor on the road. All bis specula tions in Wichita was done in the four hours’ layover and in Newton it was' carried on before and after bis run. After the collapse of the bo >m Wooliger found himself broke. His $209 00) was gone. So was bis home and be owed anywhere from $60,000 to $100.000. but lie kept at work and eneh pay day found his salary tied up. Imagine collecting $100,000 at $125 per month, and it kept tin* railroad company busy swearing "Wooliger had nothing coming.” It finally got to be tiresome, and < :u* day it was anouneed that Wooliger was no longer connected with tb.’ Santa Fc. lie left Newton and is now a conductor on the Colorado Midland, Wooliger took Ids failure nneomplainingly. and lias declared time and time again that lie would be worth a million -'nine day. iiis friends do not doubt it. is they say lie lias the nerve of a lion in everything h • does Even at gamI ling he stakes Ids ail on one turn of the card. If In* loses all right, and if be wins all right. At any place Ids limit was always “the blue sky," and any one who knows -him says with w-rfoirm < : "Lcxpeet to hear any day of Ed -Woidiger ow ning a. gold mine or Icing worth a million.” “My doctor ordered a trip to Europe for me." "I >id you follow his directions?" "No: he presented lips bill and then fork the trip to Europe himself!”— Washington Star.

CALAMITY . .MURRA Y

One bright summer morning John Murray kissed his wife and newly b >rn babe, and with a light heart hurried away to his work, singing merrily as the lark. The sun came over the hills and made the dewdrops on the (lowers sparkle in every tree, and tin* skies seemed Iduer and brighter than ever before, but hmv many days of sorrow have dawned as Bright? A stoiTin came up after noon, and a eyelone -swept over the hills, leaving a trail of death and desolation. John Murray cairn* home—no. not home. His henne had stood in the path of the cyclone. The humble cabin was now a

“That’s for one o’ we'uns to got through that pass, go right through them revenoos’ camp an’ get the fellers warnin’ afore day! It’s nifty tie” lish. gwine through that camp, boys, but some mi’s got ter take !her ehnnoes iess'n we’uns go squai 1 ’ back on them Bear Creek fellers.” ‘Til go.’ It was Calamity Murray who spoke, and he was the only volunteer for the perilous trip. “You'uns thinks I’ve been telling the revenoos, an' 1 want or chance to show yer that 'I hain't never gwine back on them what’s stuck ter me.” and before any one could say a word Calamity was off on tin* dangerous journey. The moonshiners looked at one another in silence until tin* old man who had once saved (‘alamity’s life spoke up and

said:

“Boys. I alius k no wed that Boy Cal amity's heart wore in the right place!” Calamity reached the narrow path

pile of broken timbers.

Strong arms and willing hand* j when* the oftieers Bad camped for tnv cleared away the logs, 1 11 r *’ K *-

tlie logs, and Beneath

them they found the mangled body of

tin* young wife, dead.

Like the giant oak of the forest, rent By the stolen, is the grief of a strong man when all Mint is near and dear is taken from him in one moment, wifli-

night. without :• *eident or delay. The oftieers. wrapped in Blankets, were sle« ping around a small lire, ami with Ids Blowing horn in one band and rifle in the other Calamity started to crawl through the pass, widen was so nar row that be would be compelled to go

out warning. By the mangled. Body i within ten feet of the sleeping men. of his dead wife John Murray cried Not a twig broke as be crept slowly aloud in ids anguish. Friends jam! forward, anil in ten minutes he had neighbors came by and By. and took passed the sleeping forms around tin*

him a way. and when his first terrible eamp fire.

grief was over they brought his Fifty yards beyond tie* sleeping oflichild. Clasped to its mother’s breast, j eers the pass began to widen, and

they had found it unhurt. Maternal love grows stronger when race to face with death, and, dying, tin* woman had saved the'child. John Murray turned from the child with a shudder; from the little white face the eyes of bis wife looked up into

Ids.

“What shall we call him. Jolm?*' asked the kind neighbors who bad eared for the child, one day when it was several months old. The mangled ’‘orm of the dead wife, the ruined bonne, rose before the father and he answered: “Call him Calamity." So Calamity Murray was named. Before the child was a year old John Murray sickened and died, of a broken heart, bis neighbors said, and Calamity grew up like the wild flowers on bis native bills. The rough mountaineers find tender hearts, and the child never suffered for food or clothing, but no one ever spoke a kind word to him. and early in life be realized somehow that he was an outcast. He grew to manhood, ignorant and rough as the poorest of Hu* people around him. and with tin* feeling that he had no friend in tin* world. Why did he not go away? Because to him the world was hemmed in by the blue hills mround bis native

valley.

Calamity found work with the mo.-n shiners, and lie so<»n became an expert ::t making the "monitfaiji dew."-as the liquor was called. But somehow’ the moonshiners distrusted him. arid his every movement was watched. Once he was intrusted with a wagon load of the illicit whiskey and sent over the mountain into Willis Valley to dlspostr of it. Before he had sold, a single gallon the wagon was captured by revenue officers, who started to Huntsvile with Calamity, after disposing of the team and tin* load. Somehow Calamity managed to escape from t)n‘ officers. and made bis way back to the still in the mountain. IIis sti.rr was not believed, and he was openly accused of being a spy and a traitor. Four weR armed mid desperate moon shiners bound Calamity with ropes, leaving only bis legs free, and started with him to Willis Valley to learn if (bore was any truth in bis story. They found the story of the capture true, and released Calamity, after cursing him for his stupidity and carelessness. After n’i this he went back am worked for these men again, because lie knew no better, bn! till* distrust of him had been increased; and Ins lift* was made harder than ever Before. During the winter of 18— t ra reye nut* officers made a number of . m-eess fnl raids into the Sand Mountain conn try and destroyed a number «/? stills It soon been me evident to tli.* moon shiners that there was a traimr and spy among thorn. For awhi <* 1 hey m.-ide no mmc liquor, but iik l every night at some secluded spot lo talk over the situation and try t<. ilis t jvo"

tin* informer.

"Calamity Murray hain't get u » reason not tor give we’uns erway n r ther revenoos.’’ suggested one of the tenders of tin* gang one night, and imn.u'-iate'y a dozen of them agreed that 'Ylaniiiy was the guilty mini. No? wi; i:st Hiding Iiis protestations of innocence, swift and terrible punishment would have been meted out to him bad not one of the eldest members of Hie band interceded for him and urged the t moiirbiuers to do nothing unid thcr seemed some prooi that Cai.imivy was

the •traitor.

No raids wen* made for several weeks, and the moonshine) s. wet r sufficiently recovered from their alarm

to start all

Not a suspicious stranger had been seen in Hie moiurtahi for three weeks, wlii'ii just after dark oiu* nigln Hiree long, loud blasts on a fox horn noun;* ed the alarm and -enl’ed Hie moonshiners to meet ou Pine Bluff with their guns. Fires were put out. and the } liquor on hand was moved away from : the still houses to some more secluded spot. ,

Half an hour before midnight t reify

rough But determined looking mountaineers were gathered mound a Kinall : camp fire on Pine RluJI’. Ned Larkin was the center of the group, and he told them the cause Of tin* alarm, A

dozen revenue officers, all

armed, had left Huntsville two days before for a raid on the mountain. ! They had destroyed the still of Rube, Burrell at the foot of the mountain ami ired several shots at KuIk*. who on me near being captured. Tin* officers were hen encamped in flic pass leading over ;Mo Bear Creek Valley. Down in this rtlley seven stills were in full Blast, •ml the men had received no warning. 1 "You’ns knows it’s like this." eon-! hided Larkin. “Them fellers out thar’ii Pear Creek can’t hear the horn, an' lliar ain't but one way o’ getting to ’em er head o’ them infernal rovo-

uoor.”

“Hew is that, Ned?" was asked by l a dozeu.

there Calamity ’-ose to his feet and started rapidly forward. One false step, a dead limb cracked loudly under the feet of the moonshiner and he started to run. Too late: a dozen rifle shots rang out on the still night air. and Calamity sank to the ground with a dozen bullets in his body. The officers hurriedly deployed into an# irregular line and advanced cautiously toward the prostrate form, fearing that others were waiting in ambush. Just as tin* oftieers gathered around the fallen man he struggled to his feet. A dozen guns were raised, but were quickly lowered, for the officers saw that the man was wounded unto death. Calamity caught at a tree to steady himself, and before the officers djv'myjl ids Intention lie placed fiis horn to his lips. and. with one terrible, dying struggle, blew three long, loud blasts. The horn dropped from the blood-stained band and Calamity sank to the ground dead. Over hills and ravines, piercing the still night air. went the sound of the three shrill Blasts of Calamity Murray’s born. The moonshiners around the eamp tiro on Pine Bluff heard it. and knew that their friends bad been warned in time. Down in Bear Creek Valley tin* moonshiners heard the warning, and they prepared to meet the coming foe. Next day a strong band of armed moonshiners entered the pass. The Officers had returned in hot haste to Huntsville, knowing full well the meaning of three blasts of Hie moonshiner's horn. Close by the roadside in the narrow mountain pass there is an unkept grave. On a rough headstone a blowing horn has been rudely carved, and Beneath it is the name of "Calamity

Murray.”

THE FIRST ENGINE Gave Rise io Some Funny Ideas Among Far-Away Savages, Tlie children of t he desert were tiiled with awe when first the silence of the primeval s tlhiide was broken by the puffing of the steam engine. Down at the other emf of the Cape to Cairo line the simple Malabele. when first confronted by a locomotive, were certain that the strange machine was worked by the labor of fin indefinite number of. oxen, which they assumed were shut up inside. lienee, when the engine stopped they gathered in curious crowds waiting to see the door open and the oxen come out. nor could they for many days be persuaded that the power of thi* locomotive could come from other than the strength of the ox. The Arabs of the Soudan, more hnag! native than the Matnbele. saw in the tire horses of the railway one of the genii of the “Arabian Nights.” harnessed by the magic of the infidel to the long train of ears. The steam engine was to them a living, sentient being. Of which belief there is a curious evidence* in the fact that on one occasion a sheik made an impassioned remonstrance against the cruelty of making si* small an engine draw so large a train.
