In this dieoourso Dr. Talmego would 0,
lift people out of despondency end tl
bring something of future joy into earth- t<
ly depression. Tho text is lie brows J'
vi, 19, "Whioh hope." u
Thoro is an Atlantic ocean of depth
and fullness in tho verso from which ''
my text is taken, and I only w ado into ?
tho wave at tho beaoh and take two 0
words. Wo all havo favorite words cx n

that easily find their way from brain V.
to lips, words that havo iu them loornings
and midnights, laughter and tears, 0

' "Which hope."
Thoro havo in tho oourso of our lifo w
been many angola of God thai havo ?
looked over our ehoulderB, or mot as on
the road, or chanted tho darkness away, *
or lifted tho ourtaina of tlio great fu
ture, or pulled us back from tho prooi- *
pioea, or rolled down upon ua tho tap
turoua music of tho heavena, there is '
one of thcao angola who has dono so ^
muoh for us that wo wish throughout v
all timo and all eternity to oolebrate it 1'
?the angel of Hopo. St Paul makGS !'
it tho oouter of a group of thrco, saying
"Now abidoth faith, hope, charity." u
And, though ho aaya that charity ia f1
tho grcatost of tho three, he does cot
take one plume from too wing, or ouo %v
ray of luster from tho trow, or one r<
aurora from tho ohoek, or opo melody 1
from the voioo of tho angel of my text,
"Whioh hopo."
That was a great night for our world 1 '
when in a Bu.hlchem caravansary tho *.
Infant Royal was bom, and that will
bo a great night in the darkness of your
bouI when Christian ho(>o i3 lorn. uf
There will bo chanting in iho skies ai d ' '
a star pointing to the Nativity. 1 will ^
not bother ycu with tho hu<k o* a dr.
finition and tell you what horo is. ?'
When wo ait down hungry at a table,
wo do not want an analytical diaoourso 11
as to what broad ia. Uand it on; pass
it round; give ua a alico of it. .John "
speaks of hope as a "puro hopo." Peter .
oalla it a "lively hopo." Paul etylis it j"
a "good hopo," a "euro hope," a "ro- J1'
joioing hopo." All up and down the
Biblo it ia Broken of as au anchor, aa a *r
harbor, as a helmot, aa a door.
When wo draw a ohcck on a bank, l'c

It was hopo that revived John lvnox fct
when on shipboard near the coast of ,"!
Scotland ho was fearfully ill, and ho
was requested to look shoreward and
asked if ho know tho villego near tho ri
ooaat, and ho answered. "I know it 01
well, for 1 s-'o the rtcci In of that plaoo f?
? Where God first opened tuy mouth id

how weak that over I now ap 01

warded, and for twenty five more j< ars "
ho proachcd. That is tho hope which
BUBtainod Mr. Morroll of Norwich when H
departi..g this lifo at twenty four years
of ag6 he declared, "I should like to
understand tho ocorots of ot?-rci;y bo- .
foro tomorrow morning." Thai wai Wl
the kind of hope that the corpora! had
in the battle when, after several stand- *?
ard bearers had fallen, he se:z:d tho |D
flag and turned to a lieutenant colunol 111
fcs and said, "If I fail, tell my dear wife J"
that I die with a g^od hope in Christ
iad th?t I am glad to give my lifo 'or u"
my oountjy." That, was tho good hope M1
that Dr. Goodwin had in his last hour 1
whenhoBaid: "Ah, ia this death? How lit
havo i dreaded a* an enemy this tm'.i tlx

Many havo full assurance that all is of
right with the soul. They arc as rure aft

id, "You osnsjone now. ' Ho said:
No; I wuut a private conversation

n I come?" I said " Tomorrow night.'
Your name?" I asked. Ho gave me

er reading a letter from his mother
Scotland, ho had retired for sleep,
t iu tho adjoining room ho hoard

said ho might be oailed at any lime

1 it may bo so with your boy. Writo
i often. Toll him how you arc all

to First lovo is seldom true love. A

ju followed by the earnest passion of a

,p0 The orcdulity of wotnon on tho sub

ol'tcn mistake a little admiration for a

tiou build up a oaatlo in tho air and

ou skeptical on tho subject of beiog loved;
but if you make tho mistake, tako all
tho blame on youraolf and savo your
c(j dignity by soorooy, if joa cannot koep
n(j >our hoart from loving.
Men will always bo polito, attentive

MoKinnoy, a well to do colored woman,
r was found in tho rai road out thrco
J quarters of a milo from hor home. The
1 hack and loft side of the skull was
broken and tho nook was brokon also.
Tno wounds were evidently from a
stick, as bloody splinters were found
nearby. By tho tide of tho body two
quarters of freshly slaughtered beef C3i
were found. Tho bosom of tho doad a ,
woman s aross was open. Two sots of *1
' tracks led from tho body and kooping 1D

A FATAL WRICK. "
A Seen* of Indeaoribablo Confussioa
and Horror
A fatal wreck ooocrrod on the Santa
Fo Railroad, ouo milo west of Franoonia,
Arixon, a switch station 20
miles earn ot Needles, Cal., early Wednesday.
Sovcn trainmon were killed,
P>ree passengers and 14 trainmen injured.
Limited trains, bound eastward
and westward, crushed togother while
running at full spood.
The eastbound train was drawn by
engines, while the west bound train had
but one locomotive. The trains were
orushrd and blown to pioees by an explosion
wnioh followed the collision.
Both tra<ns weio made up of vestibule b
oars of the heaviest kind, and whilo i
they itojd tbo terrific shook woll and ^
protected tho passengers to a great extent,
srvoralof oars took fire at once *
and burned up. The dining oars, one '
on each train, one Pullman and two i
oomp >?ito oars wore destroyed. i
i dg collision in laid to have boon
duo to adit regard of orders by tho orew
of tho 'Vij't bouDd train, though full r
partiou'ais on this point aro as yet ?
lacking. From all aooounte, however, ^
it is gathered that tho oast bound train
kad orders to tako tho siding at Fran- *
oonia and await tho passing of the west ?
bound flyer, whioh was running two "
houra late, and tryiag to makoup timo. P
The oast byund train failed to roaoh *
tho einiDg, aod, as the wost bound train 1
did not wait for 1., tho two trains oamo k
together without warring and with an D
awful crash. Tho boiler of tho west
b< und GDgico is raid to havo exploded P
irauicdiately after tho orasb, soalding D
to death those of the engine orow who "*
had not been killed outright. Q
A toone of awful oonfusion followed. 1
Tho massive engines piled up iu an in- *
dcsoribablo mass of brokon and twi6tod *!
a'ccl, while tho soalding steam hung
in a donso, suifooating olonld over tho 0
debris, from which tho agonising orios P
of the injured and dying onginoor oonld *
bo heard. Tho heavy Pullmans and c
ocmposito oars jammed tho dining and |<
baggago oars upon tho heated pilo tf c
debris, carrying death to thediniDg oar b
crows aod sotting tho oars afire. ''
From tho meagro dotaila of the sooncs
gathered from tho p&saoDgcra, it is 8
learned that tho slooping oars, with ono ?
or two exceptions, suffered slightly, ?
and as a result tho ptBrongors were af '
forded oornptr?tivo immunity from io P
jury. So far as loarnod, only three P
passengers, all from California, suffer- "
cd injuries of a rcvero oharaoter, tho c
terrible remits of the wreck being coo- ^
fined almost entirely to the train craws '
and tho employes of tho dining oar w
service. ,,
The wcBt bound limited carried a fnll ?
passenger list from eastern oilits, lot 11
it appears nono wero injured. n

Bridal Superstitions. ii
Relative merits of the various months ^
with legard to ma'rimony are set forth ri
n the old rhymo whioh runs:
p
"Marry whon tho year is new, 01
Always loving, kind and trno;
When February birds do mate 0
Feu may wed. nor dread your fate. p
If you wed when Maroh winds blow, "
Joy and sorrow both you'll know.
Marry in April when you oau,
Joy for inaidon and for man;
Marry iu tho iuon^h of May,
Fou will surely ruo tho day; C
Marry when Juno rosea blow,
Jver land and soa ycu'll go.
ni i * *
iney wno in .July do wed,
tluat labor always for thoir bread.
SVhoovcr wod in August bo, |,

f in Octobor you do marry, ii
liovo will come, but riohes tarry; ti
.t you wed in bleak November,
Jnly jiv will come, remember;
.Vhen December's snows fall faat,
ilarry, aod truo lovo will last."
Of tho days in tho woek, Wednesday ai
s tho best and Saturday the worst on t!
rhioh to get married. The old rhyme ^
uns: ol
"Monday for wealth, ^
Tuesday for health,
Wednesday tho best day of all,
Thursday for oroBsos,
Friday for losses, (
Saturday no luck at all."
If wo aro to believo superstition, a ,
ride's happiness depends not a little
n what she wears. "Something old
nd something new, somothing borowed
and something bluo," ia invari- ^
bly regarded by brides. According o
an old rhyme: ^
"Married in white, M
