LEARNING BIBLE VERSES.

■aaday Schools of To-dWy. and Those of tlm Past. Sunday schools have changed with the fifties. They now hold one short session every Sabbath day J and it is optioned with the pupils to attend cliuach or to remain away. liut fifty years ago two sessions were held every Sundav, and all file scholars were expected to be present at the church services morning and afternoon. In those days there were Sunday schools which proposed to make every child cornjolt to memory the Whole of the New Testament and most of the Old Testament. In the memoir of Dr. S. Wells Williams, the Chinese missionary and scholar, it is stated that while he was attending a Sunday school at Utica, N. Y., he received a book for having learned the New Testament through. Such was the emulation among the boys of the school that on a certain Sunday every scholar in one class repeated Whole chapters from the gospels, and one boy rehearsed 500 verses without an error. The forty girls of the school were so ambitions to excel the- boys in memorizJng Scripture, thaC-on ten Sundays-firey recited 44,000 verses—an average of 110 verses recited by each girl every Sunday. But the teachers saw that these feats of memory looked to mastering more the letter of tho Scriptures than their spirit, and limited the amount to be recited to fifteen verses. The fact is remarkable as showing the enthusiasm of the scholars, many of whom stole moments from their play during the week, that they might learn Bible verses to recite in Sunday school.

A DISAGREEABLE RATION.

A Horse Swallows h Ball of Twine— How It was Kemoved. A horse in a small town near Norwich, Conn., which is disposed toswallow anything that comes within its reacts recently bolted a large ball of wrapping twine. The ball rolled in easily, but a knob at the end of the cord anchored itself windward between the animal's front teeth, and the knot and the visible piece of twine served as a key to tho situation, when the young groomswoman visited the stable and inspected her steed. There was a somewhat troubled look on the horse’s face as he stood with feet braced, ears lopped, mouth open, and in his eyes was a mute apt>eal that betokened a growing suspicion Hint probably the case was hopeless. The young lady unloosened the knot, wound six inches of the cord around her hand, and began to. unravel the mystery. The horse kept his mouth ODen, looked wise, and seemed perfectly to understand what wa3 jxoing on, and out, yard after yard, fathom by fathom, the animui complasantly yielded up his geemiar dinner, and on neither sido of the manger was a comment Uttered, except that now and then the grateful beast emitted a sigh as he observed the external ball swelling in magnitude and felt the internal one steadily diminishing. Finally the last yard of cord was reeled out of the horse, wound up, and the ball taken into the, bouse, where the animal couldn't get at it again.

A t;i .'KI Speech. ' A lawyer whose eloquence was of the spread-eagle sort was addressing the jiiry at great length, and his legal opponent, growing weary, went outside to rest. “Lawyer B—- is making a great speech. If you or I had occasion to announce that two and two make faur we’d be just fools enough to blurt it right out Not so Lawyer IL—l He would say: “If, by that particular arithmetical rule known as addition, we desired to arrive at the sum of two integers added to two integers, we should find—and 1 assert this boldly, sir, and without the fear of successful contradiction—wc, I repeat, should lino by the particular arithmetical formula before mentioned —and, sir, I hold myself perfectly responsible for the assert on I am about to make—that the sum of the two given integers added to the other two integers would be four I”

A Great Speech. The other day a friend told me what he claimed to be a new story about Mr* Evarts. 1 had never heara it before, but new stories about Mr. Evarts are rare and at a high premium. A gentleman, he t said, was entering the Senate gallery at 'Washington when he cbauced to meet a friend coming out. “Hello!” lie said, “what’s going on?” “Nothing just now. Mr. Evarts has been addressing the Senate.” "Has he? I’m sorry I missed tbat.ll “Yes, it was a great treat He spoke for more than four hours.” “What about?” ...... **He didn’tsay.”

From the Far Northwest.

A LETTER OREGON. Oregon is crossed from north’to eolith by two mount»m ranges, the Cascade and Coast Kan go. 'The Coast mountiiias areV.ivided by several valleys of wnicit tee isest important are the iftpguc, Coquilla, Umpqua and Nhhalem. The region between the Coast Mid >. asc-nie mountains is traversed by the Willamette River. This beaptiful valu-v is jjdjeut litty miles wide and 120 long. AIL the country west of the Cascade mountains is called Western Oregon and as each state must haye a garden spot it is called the *'Garden., t Oregon.” The region east of the Cascade especially southeastern Oregon is quite barren and not at all adapted to running. r

Western Oregon has a very healthful climate. Owing to the sea breeze it is much milder and less cbangablo than in the eastern states. Snow seldom falls on the western slopes of the Coast Range. The Oregon and Cal. R. 11 crosses the stain from north to south and is nailed the Oregon short lino from Tortlaud Ip Sacramento. This affords the only railroad transportation of Western Oregon. Oregon abounds in natuial resources that only await development. Extensive deposits of gold are found throughout the mountainous regions. Silver, platinum and quicksilver are also found. At Coos Bay and elsewhere are valuable deposits of lignite coal. Valmountain slopes and myrtle lines the banks of the rivers. The. Willamette valley is mostly well adapted to farming. All kinds of grain arc raised. West of the Coast Ranges stock raising and dairy ing arc* the principal industries. Stock can te raised with very little cost for no feed is required during the winter. I have seen cattle driven from the mountains on April Ist that would make excellent beef. Fruits ot all kinds are abundant. Those most extensively cultivated are apples, peaches, pears and prunes. When crops are planted here the owneT is sure of a good yield for failures are unknown. Valley laud is valued at from §75 to §IOO per acre. The most prominent among the dis advantages of Oregon is the mode of travel. West of the Coast Range Ihe old settlers still adhere to the ancient mode of mountain travel and insist on packing everything on horseback Instead of building wsgon roads. Many settlers have lived bore from fifteen to twenty years and have never owned a wagon, but the settlers are now awakened to their interests and are improving their roads. It fe so muddy here that stages cannot run during the winter season. This is eaused by the winter rains.

Whenever enough euterpriseis awakened aud I be coast is connected with the interior by railway, then this country will receive its boom, for millions of feet of lumber and as uiauy tons of coal are only awaiting an easier mode of transportation. Besides these the stock, fruit and all other industries

would increase £is ; ,well.

OUR CLIMATE NOT CHANGING.

Utter Fallacy of tho Popular Motion to That KfTeot. Abbe of the meteorological building at Washington, who is the real founder ®f our weather service, takes up in the February number of the Foruin the popular idea that our climate la changing. Affair iaowuig in an inter. Jesting way how changes, if any oecue, are calculated from meteorological tables, he shows that rational climatology gives no basis -for the much-taiked-of influence upon the climate of a country produced by the growth or destruction of forests, the building of railroads or telegraphs, and the cultivation of crops over a wide extent of prairie. “Any opinion as to the meteorological effects of man’s activity,” he says, "must he based either upon the records of observation or on a priori theoretical reasoning. Now the records of experience are exceedingly diverse in various parts of the world, and lead to no uniform conclusion. The paleontological evidences of the former existence of animals and plants where they can not now thrive, show clearly that great changes have taken place during geological ages perhaps 50,000 years distant; but no important change has yet been demonstrated since human history be- __ _ li gan.

Motes in a Bar of Sunlight. Counting the dancing motes in a bar of sunshine sounds like one of those hopeless, never-ending tasks with which malignant fairies delight to break the spirit of little heroines in the German folks stories. Something more than this, however, has been achieved by modern science, which is now able to count the particles floating in any given portion of the atmosphere, and determine what proportion of these are dangerous germs and what are mere dust. Dr. Frankland’s curious experiments have shown us how John John Aitken of Falkirk, by a fatally different method, has been enabled to take stock of the more ixarmless, but hardly less interesting, dust motes. Thirty thousand such particles have been detected by him in the thousandth of a cubic inch of the air of a room. In the outside atmosphere in dry weather the same measurement of air yielded 2,119, whereas after a heavy rainfall the number was only 521. That this power of prying into atmospheric secrets will eventually yield very important—results must be obvious to nil. Among the most curious discoveries already made is the direct relation between dust particles and fog, mist and rain.
