SEES BIG WAR CLOUD

Correspondent Says End of Trouble in Europe is Far Away. Declares It is Impossible for Anyone to Predict That 1912 Will End in Peace—Russia Attempted to End Present Conflict. Berlin, Germany.—That Europe has passed "through the two first months of spring without a catastrophe of any kind in the diplomatic field must not be taken to mean that the sky is now cloudless and the horizon clear. On the contrary, ominous rumblings are heard everywhere, and no one dares prophesy that 1912 will end in peace. During the last two weeks a correspondent of a Washington paper writes, events have happened which have puzzled the diplomats of all the great which seem to predict the imminency of material changes in the delicate balance of old Europe. Our poor old world, in spite of all its enlightenment, still possesses Its political sphinx,' situated within the confines of Russia. What Russia’s plans really are no one ever knows, least of all, probably, the gentle and peace-loving czar himself. Russia gave the first impulse to the new grouping of the powers when, under Alexander 111., a strong and virile ruler of extraordinary gifts as a statesman, she concluded the alliance with France, which became the unshaken corner stone of the European position. Naw, at least, it seems as if this corner stone is less firm than before. France and Russia are no longer in perfect harmony, and Russia Earned the French ambassador to St v

KILLS SNAKE IN PULPIT ’Tenderfoot" Pastor Shows Nerve While Preaching at Greeley, Colo. Greeley, Colo. —Rev. John Bentley, in Invalid “tenderfoot,” graduate of an eastern theological college, may have a congregation any time his health permits him to preach here because of his nerve. Addressing a handful of people in the little adobe schoolhouse, ten miles from here, he paused suddenly at sight of a rattlesnake that had joined his congregation and nestled at his feet. He stooped quickly, grabbed the reptile back of the neck, carried it out of the schoolhouse ftnd stamped it to death. Returning, he dropped the subject of his sermon and, symboljzlng the snake as sin, held his congregation for an hour. The next night the congregation was too large for the schoolhouse. TOO SHY FOR LONELY BRIDE Man Imagined His Wife Wanted to “Boss” Him and Remained at Office. Oakland, Cal.—Georgetta Burnham and Allen P. Burnham were married at San Rafael in September of last year, but he became churlish in a few hours after their marriage, according to her complaint for divorce filed. Mrs. Burnham said that he was mum for several evenings and ignored her. Burnham is an engraver and embosser. His wife said that he staid at his office kt night, and when she begged him to come home he told her he would allow ao woman to “boss” him. Afterward, she said, he deserted her.

Locked in Morgan Office

Robert Bacon and J. P. Morgan, Jr., Pry Way Out of Room With Knives. New York.—J. P. Morgan,, Jr., andRobert Bacon, former ambassador to France, were prisoners for 20 minutes in the new quarters of J. Pierpont Morgan, in the Bankers’ Trust building. The two went up to inspect the new juarters, which are on the thirty-first floor, just before noon. A single door leads from the main corridor into the Morgan private suite, and Mr. Morgan ■lammed it without noticing that there was no knob on the inside. When an inspection was completed the two men found themselves locked In. No telephones have as yet been Installed.

Petersburg for ttffe jarring note of the discord which was dimly heard by those whose ears are always pressed against the ground. Russia wanted to put an end to the whr between Italy and Turkey, hut she wanted something herself from the government in Constantinople in exchange for her friendly services, and she hoped, naturally, to be backed up by France. In this hope she was disappointed, and the closing of the Dardanelles, which followed, caused the greatest irritation in St. Petersburg, because it brought home very forcibly to the Russian statesmen the immense disadvantage and danger of their empire not controlling the outlets from Jt he Black sea. Now, of course, the Dardanelles are once more open, but many a statesman’s head will lie uneasily until the Russian sphinx has spoken and made known its plans definitely. Meanwhile it is admitted that the continuance of the Italo-Turkish war is not free from danger. Italy cannot think of an advance in Tripoli until the autumn, and may not be able to do so even then. Nor can Italy withdraw with honor. There is an impasse which European diplomacy will have to remove. But no statesman has yet found away, and all that M. Sazanoff’s attempts have so, farachieved is the diplomatic sensation in Paris. WELL KNOWN FIRE' DOG DIES Rex Was a Bulldog and a Hero of the Department—ls Buried With Honor.

Capture Giant Sea-Cow

Monster Taken by Fishermen Weighs 3,000 Pounds and Is Twelve Feet Long. Point Isabel, Tex. —Mexican fishermen had an exciting encounter with a manatee, a giant sea-cow, in the shallow water of the Laguna Madre near here recently. It was captured only after one of the men, Ramon Rodriguez, had been seriously hurt by one of Its flippers. The creature was 12 feet long and weighed more than 3,000 pounds. It is being kept alive and promises to sur-’ vive for some time. The sea-cow is supposed to have come up from the more southern waters of the gulf. It entered the Laguna Madre at the pass which separates the Island from the mainland and was seen by the fishermen struggling In a shallow part of the strip of water. A boat with three men” went out to "capture It When they got close to it Rodriguez climbed out of the boat and attempted to put a rope around the manatee’s fins and was knocked unconscious by a blow from one of its flippers. He would have drowned had he not been dragged into the boat by his companions. The rope was finally fastened and the manatee was towed ashore. It is the second of its kind captured in the Laguna Madre In the last few weeks. , These animals are quite numerous along the coast 150 to 200 miles south of here. They are adapted to both salt and fresh water. A strange feature of their appearance in the waters along the coast Is that they are usually accompanied by a school of sea devils,

T ~-> was a bull, with heavy jowls and legs which spoke strength and not beauty, but for four years he had guarded the firehouse night and day when he was not on duty at some blaze or sniffing about in search of fire. There is a new horse on duty in No. 17 house. He is a big roan, fractious and difficult to handle. The alarm sounded. The roan took his place by his mate and dashed out of the house. The driver managed him with difficulty, but Rex ran along beside him. barking when time came to turn cor ners and endeavoring to show the new horse the way to answer an alarm. Suddenly there came a corner to turn. The roan was slow in answering to the reins. Thin he hurled hia body to one side, dragging the engine after him, and th» wheels of the heavy vehicle passed over the body of the faithful dog. The firemen buried Rex with all the honors due a hero. BLAMES GLASSES UPON CAPS Doctor Says Freshmen's Practice Injures the Eyes—Are Unprotected From Sun. Ithaca, N.

great seo monsters frequently weighing as much as 4,500 pounds each. One of them when harpooned has been known to drag 20 boats, hitched tandem, each carrying two men. Such an experience came two or three years ago at Aransas Pass to a party of fishermen, among whom were John W. Robbis, then state treasurer; W. G. Sterrett, present state game, fish and oyster commissioner, and J. W. Maxwell of Austin, a noted big game hunter and fisherman. They were fishing just off the little town of Tarpon when a sea devil of extraordinary size came to the surface near one of the boats. A boatman sank a harpoon deep Into its body, the harpoon being secured to the boat by a line. The sea devil made off at lightning speed. As the boat to which It was attached passed the boats each *hrew a line, and 20 other boats, carryng 40 men, were tor ed by the giant animal. They had stuck to It for six hours, when it headed out toward the ooean. Then the men raised the signal of distress and a life-saving crew on Harbor island rowed out and shot he monster.

Angry Cat Attacks Child. Elwood, Ind.—Angered because the two-year-old child of Thomas Loahr had crept to the saucer of milk from which it had been drinking and had attempted to appropriate the contents, a family cat attacked the child, tearing several deep scratches In the little one’s face.

AT “LOST AND FOUND” DESK Absent-Minded Women Make Much Trouble for Clerks of Big New York Hotels. A woman hurried up to the lost and found section of the offioe desk of the Waldorf-Astoria. She held up a goldmesh handbag. “I saw a woman who had this bag In her hand sit down in the corridor,” she said. “She got up a few minutes later and went away, leaving it. I thought she might return, so I kept my eyes on it for a while; but now I have got to go, and as she has not come back I thought I had better turn the bag in to you.” A few minutes later another woman came up to the same place and asked whether anything been i heard of a feather boa, which she was j sure somebody had stolen. After a ! search the clerk produced the boa and ! she wknt out of the hotel. Fifteen minutes afterward a taxicab ; driver entered and turned in at the office a feather boa which he said a fare from the hotel had left in the cab. To the clerk it looked familiar. He examined it carefully. It was the same boa that bad been claimed only a quarter of an hour before. Only a few minutes had passed when a third woman rushed up. She asked the elerk please to tell the hotel detectives or the police or the news; papers, or somebody, to find a valuable fur muff which had been stolen from her. She was positive she had left it in her room. The clerk listened attentively to her description. Then he ducked under the counter and solemnly handed her the muff. “Why, where did you get this?” she demanded. “It was picked up in the corridor * madam,” was the reply. She signed her name in the receipt book and then went away In the same haste she had come. When the clerk looked up from the book he found she had left her pocketbook on the counter. —New York Sun. Mats Made From Straw Matting. In days gone by nearly every one used straw matting on their sleeping room floors, but this Is the age ol bare floors and mats. I have made some nice mats from some matting that I had once used on a floor. I se lected the best parts and cut them in lengths varying from one yard and three-quarters to two yards. I ravelled the ends about four inches and tied them in a double knot; that keeps them from fraying any more and makes a kind of fringe which I think is much nicer than hemmed ends. 1 wash mine with salt and water, which freshens them up wonderfully. These mats are especially suitable for sleeping rooms or for a strip for a hall. They are very easy to handle they are so light, and they are easy to sweep They look well on a hardwood floor The parts of my carpet that showed signs of wear I converted into piazza mats, so nothing was wasted. Matting makes excellent doormats for the outside doorstep or outside entrance and you will be surprised how much less sand get,s tracked In. Painless Dlsjointment. Mr. Little, In his book on Madagascar, tells an amusing story of a friend, who, on a journey from the coast to the interior, was much troubled by the curiosity of the natives Being a fine looking man with a flow lng beard, he excited the admiration | and amazement of all. Natives crowd ed the doors of his hut and jostled one another to get a peek through convenient chinks, giving him all the time their opinion of his eyes, nose, and general appearance. In vain did he shut the door of his hut. They crowded back again, and at last sat down in rings outside the hut to discuss his want of good manners In sending them away. At last the stranger could stand it no longer. It was a bright moonlight night. He suddenly rushed to the door of his hut, threw it open, and with a loud shout sprang toward the natives. At the same time he drew from his mouth two rows of false teeth and waved them in the air. The natives took one look at the dreadful sight, and then fled in horror from the presence of “a man who could take himself to pieces.” Thought She Was Poisoned. Eugene H. Garnett of Chicago was called upon at a banquet given by the Chicago Bar association recently. He said: “A lady who lives on Greenwood avenue not more than a mile from the corner of Fifty-first street, gave a dinner recently. There were twelve at the table. One of the courses consisted of soft-shell crabs. A guest who was fond of this delicacy and who allowed his appetite to get the better of his breeding, asked for a second crab. Now it happened that the market man had delivered only thirteen crabs, and on the evening of the dinner there was a nurse in the house who was being served upstairs. The thirteenth crab had gone to her. “The butler, though much astonished at the request of the guest for a second crab, walked apparently unperturbed out of the dining-room, then bolted up the back stairs to the room occupied by the nurse, gave a hasty glance at the tray, shouted, ‘Thunderation, she has eaten the crab,’ and rushed downstairs again. Not more than a minute later the frightened nurse burst into the dining-room, crying, ’What was the mattes with it?*” The Largest Candle. The making of an ordinary domestic wax or tallow candle Is sufficiently wonderful to the lay mind to excite comment, but a candle has lately been lighted in Rome that is 11 feet 8 inches in height, and will born for six years. In various places of worship candles are used in their symbolic sense, candles of vast proportions, but the one In question is a giant of Its clan. The first step in the making of this mammoth candle was to construct the wick, a wick that would burn clearly and cleanly, and need no snuffing. Suspended by a derrick over a vat of boiling wax, the wick was dipped no fewer than 200 times, till the required quantity of wax adhered to It. and between each dip the wax picked up had to dry off.

Success in Soul Winning By Rev. W. H. Pope, Soperioteodent of Men of Mooch' Bible beiitat, Cbiceao Three Things to Remember. I. Remember that the Sou of man came to seek and save that which was

lost. It was not to found a church, 05 to establish a creed, or to teach good morals. He came to die for men’s sins in order that they might »be saved. Furthermore men are just as completely lost now as they were then. Civilization has done away with some of the cruelty and barbarism in the world, but

human nature is precisely the same today as It was 2,000 years ago. It Is thoroughly selfish and sinful, and nothing but the grace of God can make it otherwise. (John 3.18, 19; I Cor. 2:14; Eph. 4:18.) No matter how amiable and honorable and public-spirited a man may be, without Christ he is lost and needs ,-to be saved. “He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life;” that is, he is spiritually dead. 11. Remember that the Lord Jesus will save some souls through you if you will co-operate with him. You have some gifts and more or less influence. If you will consecrate your gifts and Influence to the service of Christ, he will certainly use them to win some of your friends to himself. While Jesus was in the world he was the light of the world, but now that he has gone, “Ye are the light of the world,” and your mission is to so shine as to guide others out of darkness into the marvelous light of God. 111. Remember that Jesus will furnish all the equipment you need. Do you lack wisdom? “I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay or resist.” Do you lack courage? “Be strong and of a good courage; he not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God Is with thee whithersoever thou goeet.” (Josh. 1:9.) Do you lack power? “All power is given unto me in heaven and earth.” (Matt. 28:18.) Do you lack faith? “The life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Jeremiah said, “Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot speak; for I am a child.” But the Lord said unto him. “Say not, I am a child, for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.” Remember that all your inexperience and inability amount to nothing in the face of the Master’s express command, “Follow me. and I will make you fishers of men.” Three Things to Do. I. Set the winning of souls before you as a definite aim in life. An aimless life is generally a useless life. The people who succeed are usually those who set a definite object before them and say. “This one thing 1 will do, whatever the cost may be.” The men who accumulate fortunes, who secure political appointments, as a rule, are people who have been bending all their energies in one direction for many years. Why should not Christians set the winning o? souls l>efore them as a definite purpose In life? And who is there who could not succeed if he would put the same amount of thought and interest Into It that he does Into his business? No one expects to succeed in business without toil and patience and sacrifice. n. Cultivate a passion for souls. David Brainerd, whose biography ought to be read often by every Christian worker, used to say: “I care not where I go, nor what hardships I enlure, if I can only see souls saved. All I think of by day and dream of by night is the conversion of men.” Often he would go out Into the forest in mid-winter and kneel down In the snow and wrestle in prayer until his clothing was wet with perspiration. Many a time he spent the whole night In prayer for the poor Indians amongwhom he labored, and In almost every' such Instance, one will find in his diary two or three days after some, such entry as this: “Today as Ij preached the word, the power of Godi came down upon those stolid, Immov-’ able Indians, and melted and broke] their hearts, and swept them Into the, kingdom by scores.” If any one says: "I have not the, passion for souls. I am cold and unemotional, “let me say for your comfort that It is not a question of what sou are by nature, but of what you may become by grace. The Lord Jesus was tender and sympathetic, was he not? Well,, it is the mission of the Holy Spirit to reprodnoe In you the life of the Lord Jesus In all Its fullness, not only his principles, but the veritable feelings of Jesus, his tender compassion, and boundless lore, and heaven-moving faith. All this Is your birthright 111. Begin and continue all your work with prayer. Pray for all men. (I Tim. 2:1-4.) “I exhort, therefore, that prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men.” One advantage for praying dally for each man, woman and child on the face of the earth la, that yon never meet a person whom you have not prayed for, and many times. It Is a good plan to make a list of* half a dozen of more persons in whom you are especially interested, and make them an object of dally intercession, at the same time looking for their conversion. A Sunday school teacher who began praying for his class had the pleasure of seeing eleven young men converted In a few weeks.

MORE HOSPITALS ARE NEEDED Situation Improved, But Further Work is Needed to Stamp Out Tuberculosis. Only four states, Mississippi, Neruda, Utah, and Wyoming, have no beds whatever in special hospitals or ffards for consumptives. Eight years Ago when the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis was organized, there were 28 states in which no hospital or sanatorium provision for consumptives existed, and the entire number of beds In the United States was only 18,000. “While these figures would indicate a remarkable growth in anti-tubercu-losis activity.” says Dr. Livingston Farrand, executive secretary of the National association, In commenting an the subject, “there are still practically ten indigent consumptives for every one of the 30,000 beds, Including those for pay patients. In other words, we have from 250,000 to 300,000 consumptives in this country too poor to provide hospital care for themselves. If tuberculosis is ever going to be Btamped out in the United States, more hospital provision for these foci of Infection must, ha provided ” SKIN ERUPTION ON CHEEK Kingsley, Mich. —“Last May my thirteen-months-old baby had a core come on her cheek. It started In four or five small pimples and in two or three hours’ time spread to the size of a silver dollar. It Bpread to her eye. Then water would run from the pimples and wherever that touched it caused more sores until nearly all one cheek and up her nostrils were one solid sore. She was very fretful. She certainly was a terrible looking child, and nothing seemed to be of any use. "Then I got some Outicura Soap and Cutlcura Ointment. She tried to rub off everything we put on so that we would sit and hold her hands for two hoars at a time, trying to give the medicine a chance to help her, but after I washed It with Cnticura Soap and then put on the Outicura Ointment they seemed to soothe her and she did not try to rub them off.

Two Frenchmen, in visiting an art gallery, stopped to admire a painting by an American. The artist happened to be In the gallery and in broken English one of the Frenchmen asked: "How did monsieur ever catch such a wonderful picture?” “O,” replied the artist, with a faraway look, “that painting was an offspring of my brain.” The other Frenchman was greatly interested and asked his friend what that American had said. “I can hardly explain,” whispered the first Frenchman excitedly; “he said ze picture was one spring off of his brain.

An English earl, lately deceased, who had no family, was notorious for his hatred of children, and on one occasion he engaged as lodge keeper an army pensioner named McMicken. Some few months later McMicken’s wife presented him with a son and heir. On learning of the occurrence his lordship rode, down to the lodge in a terrible rage. “I hear,” said he to Mr. McMicken, “that your wife his a son.” “Yes, my lord,” said the man proudly. “Well, now, look here, McMicken; when I put you here, it was to open and shut a gate, but by the Lord Harry, not to propagate."
