own experience in this regard- I starte'i

reotion. I consulted my o%Il tastes. I
- liked lawyers acid court rolomu's and judgi i.I
and juries, aid I revelecI in hearitIL Cie
cFrelimgluyseins and the BUcadlevs of' ti':
New ,1ersey bar, aind as assiaint of Lli
county clerk, at 16 .)vars tof age, I
searcched titles. naturaliz_td lvreincr.,
recorded deeds, received the confessi0n
of.judgments, swore witiesses and jurivs
and grand juries. Hut alter a while I t'll
a call to the Gospel ininis ry and elitered
it, and I felt so e satisiaction I heC
work. But one -ummer, when I was
res'ing at Sharon Springs, and while
I seated in the park of' that village, I said
to I ysell. "i! I have an CspeciaI work to
do in the world I ought to fin( it out',
now," and with that determination I
. pra3ed as I had iever beore prayed,
I and got, the divie directiol. acid wrote
it down in Ily limeiranduin book. and
I sa . my life-work then as plainly as I
see it n,w. Oi do not be satisfied witlh
eeral directions. (Get specilie diree

aini and fire. Concentrate. Napoluon's
I success in battle came iro i his theory
of breaking trough, the elcmy's rinks
at onte Djoint, not trNiing to met the
whole line of the enem;.'s force by a
- similar foc ce. One reason why he (ilsl
Waterloo was because ie did not work
>, his usual theory, and spread his force
I out over t wide range. Oh Christian
man, ol Christian womiai, break through
some where. Not a geIneral engageient
for God but a particnlar engtlagemeit,
and make -a answer to prayer. If there
are sixteen hundred nillton people in
ithe world, then there are sixteen hui
cdred cillion diflereit, liission-s to flfil,
diiferent st.yles of work to do, diffcrent
orbits in which toravolve, and it you do
nlot get the divine directioni there are at
least, fift.een hundred andl ninety-niie
mihlionl possibilities that you will m11a;(e
a mistake. On your kitees before God
vet the matter settled s,t that von c
tirmly sal: "to this end was I Iorn."
And now I come to the cliAIItrie

ON ELECTROCU FIONS.
)R. M'DONALD'S STATEMENT ON
THOSE AT SING SING.
t Fully Confirns the Accounts Given by
the Usnited P,es sevico ,i- hsa#1ty
Iutautanteous and Death Speedy.
ALBANY, N. Y.,Oct. l.-Dr. Carlos F.
lacDonald, who superintended the
)lectrocu tions at Sing Sing, to-day made
,he following statement which in each
)articular verrifies the report of the
.;ited Press sent out on the day of the
.lectrocution. In this supplementary
eport ot tf,, details of the executions
vhich took place at Sing Sing prison
ast July it is stated that in all these
,ases, one electrode was so applied as
o cover the forehead and temples and
he other--a large one -the calf of the
-ight leg, except in the case of Josepb
A ood, in which it was applied to the
eft leg, in consequence of the existence
)f an itleer on the right one. The elec
rodes were thoroughly wet with a
ioltition of sait and water before the
mrrent was turned on and were mois
Lened at intervals when the current
w as in terrupted, with the same solution
Lit rown on them with a syringe. Slocum
entered the txecution room at 4:33 a. m.
imd passed at once to the chair. The
restraining straps and electrodes were
tdjusted expeditiously and without re
distainice, and the electric circuit was
.ompleted for the first time at 4:35.
rho first contact la-sted twenty-seven
econds at the end of which time it was
)roken but the pulse was still found to
)e oeating strongly, and between one,
imd twelve minutes later a noisy re
tpiration became established with con
nidlerable regularity. The current was
mmedi itely reapplied and continued
or0 i6tseconds. Respiration had then
,eased entirely and permanently and
Ie heart beats had also ceased. After
iloctim's body had been removed con
1iltationl alliong the medical gentlemen
preient. soelled to point to the unani
Llnolls feeling that it was quite possib:e
hat the long continuance of the current
was not so significant, a factor in pro
luCing rapid cessation of the heart
beat, as the sudden impact of making
ind breaking the contact and for that
reason the next execution was conduct
[d a little differently.
Ilarris A. Smiler entered the room at
t A) a. in. The first contact was made
at 5 08 a. ii., and continued ten seconds;
was t1i(:n interrupted to allow of wet
ting sponges; was again imade for ten
seconds and again the sponges were
wet, and a third contact was made for
ten seconds. Three contacts of ten sec
onds each were thus made, at the end
of' which time there was no effort at
respiration, bit the pulse was beating
so firmly and regularly that it was
(eeied expedient to again close the
cirettit for ninetenn seconds, at th3 end
of which time the heart had perman
ently ceased beating.
It will be no(iced that in the first
ease the pressure was applied for fifty
three secons In all. At the end of that
time respiration and the heart beats
had ceasedl permanently. In the sec
ond case at the end of three contacts or
ten seconds each the heart beat was
still strong and at the end of the fourth
application of nineteen seconds that
had entirely ceased. It will appear
froim this that the duration of the cur
rent was quite as important an item as
the making and breaking of a contact..
I t was therefore determined to make
the contact in the next case a little
longer, interruptions being necessary to
Ie-lit of moistening the sponges.
.oseph Wood entered at 5.32 and the
lectric current was completed at 5.31.
'Pb ree contacts of twenty seconds each
w'ere made at~ the end of which time
respiration had ceasedl permanently; no
pulse Sou(Otld bie felt at the wrist and no
heart beat wvas heard on examination.
,J ugiro eniter( d the room at 6 a. in.
A t E1.12 a. m. the current wvas closed for
the first time, and three contacts of fit
teen seconids each followed, with two in
t ermissions of twenty secondis each.
When t.he current was finally broken a
very slight fluttering was relt at the
wris'. .lIn this case extreme heat was
siou ced in the regioan of the knee above
the point where the lower electrode had
b eeni ap)plieui and a thermometer held
aigainst the skin for only fifteen sec
Jiuns ran up 115 degrees, the highest
po1 it it registered1. At 11.17 the chest
was bared and cessation of the hIeart
was confirmed.
I'roins the experience had in these
eaises,the rep)ort says we are inclined to
the belief that, while unconsciousness
was inistantaneous and continuous from
the first moment of contact in each
case, yet, in order to insure that death
supiervene as rapidly as possible it was
necessary to continute the voltage em
llyed in these eases for from fifty to
sixty seconds. In each case the temn
pseraturie of the water near to and at
t he ediges of the electrodes was raised
nseai ly, if ni(t qluite, to the boiling point,
so as to blister the skini more or less ex
tn isiv'ely. '[here was absolutely no
wvherte any smoking, charring or burn.

Smuotheredi ini Cotton seed.
ItAI,LEmui, N. C., oct. 3.- Willloughby
Saulls, of Wayne county, on going Into
his barn, whierein a large quantity of
seedl cotton was stored, discovered his
live-year-old daughter Mary with her
head aind a p)ortionl of her body in a hole
in the cotton dead. She had imitated
her brother, aged twelve, in digging the
hole, and while the latter went to the
house she (deepeneid tihe cavity and stuck
her head in it, but owing to the heavy
presure of the cotton from all sides waus
uniable to dIraw herself out and was
smiothered.
