Native Australian: iftless, Aimless d@ Fond of Liquor. For many years there has been an an- rual distribution of blankets and other nec- essaries, says a writer in Chambers’ Jour- nal. Mission stations have also been es- tablished by government and private funds | in different parts of the country, where as| many of the blacks as are willing to con- form to the mild rules laid down for the conduct of the establishment are housed, fed and taught. Their want of constraint! and their instinct for a free, roaming life, however, generally weigh more heavii ly than does even their liking for regular ra- tions and a lazy iife. The majority prefer to become hangers-on about the townships and stations, eking out existence by beg- ging and doing odd fobs. Every station and township has its little band of black fellows and their “gins,” who wander about in wonderful assoriments of the cast-off | clothing of the whites, begging from every- one and not always clearly distinguishing between “meum” and “tuum.” “Bacca” and sixpences are what they most favor, but nothing at all comes wrong. The men and women are alike mordinately fond of | tobacco and intoxicants. This fondness for drink has had not a little to do with their downfall. It is a pitiable sight to see the poor creatures loafing about the hotels, begging and praying for the maddening poison which they know too well is fast destroying them. Once having acquired the vices of the whites, their ruin is swift. A few, but not many, are employed as cattle-| men, shepherds and general help about the stations. They are also drafted into the) police force as mounted troopers and track- ers, and have done and are doing some. splendid service in hunting down criminals who escape to the bush. Many are fine| runners and athletes, but since abandoning the old wild life their prowess in these re-| spects is waning. Mission work among! ; the blacks cannot be said to have been suc- | cessful. Undoubtedly good work has been done by the devoted missionaries who have | to raise and en-/| lighten the native tribes. ‘The low type of \ have united, and most of the Ever since the beginning of the great revival by Moody and Sankey, and the com- mencement of Lent, there has been a great | deal, and at the same time very little, going” on in the churches of the city. Moody meetings most of the denominations separate church happenings have been for the time overshadowed by the great undertaking at Convention Hall. Each church is sup- posed to conduct its regular and extra serv- ices during the revival meetings just the Same as ever, and one of the noticeable features is that, regardless of the great crowds that have thronged Convention Hall, the regular church services and prayer meetings during the week have been well attended. Another noticeable thing about the big revival is the large proportion of regular church goers and church members who compose the audience. In fact, one of the problems which the committee in charge is now considering is how to get in some of those who are not quite so good, and not quite as well versed in the Bible and ac- customed to singing hymn tunes. To gather in the tough and what is often known as the hopeless element, is one of the chief aims of both of the great evangelists. This class of people have so far been keeping well away from the revivalists’ hands, but it is hoped, as the crush at the doors begins to lessen, and when many of the people have already satisfied their curiosity in re- gard to the meetings, that another class will begin to put in an appearance. The Lenten season is observed strictly by the Catholics, Episcopalians and more or less by most of the other denominations as a time for revi even if it were not for the Moody meetings, occupying at this time so much of the attention of the Protestant churches. For the time a great many of the extra gatherings and asides of church life have been done away with; entertain- ments, fairs, suppers and socials are given a little resting time, and there is a prevail- ing scarcity of popular lectures or affairs either for money making or for purposes of enjoyment. ‘Tomorrow will be the Sunday of the year when. throughout all the Lutheran churches of the country, in the general synod, a for- eign missionary service for the Sunday schools will be held. Exercises of a suitable nature will be held, and special collections for the work in far-off lands will be gath- ered during the day. A pamphlet, with an outline of exercises, and containing the por- trait of Rev. David A. Day, D.

The Baptist Sunday School Union of the colored churches of the city met last Sun- day afternoon at the Salem Baptist Church, on Champlain avenue northwest. The gath- ering was well attended by delegations from the various churches of the city, and a number of interesting matters came up before the body for discussion and consid- eration, Several speeches were made by prominent men, the address of welcome be- ing made by Thomas L.

This renders him a dangerous enemy, as he will receive any number of bails from a small gun in the throat and chest without showing the least distress. This account of a dangerous encounter with the anima! is given by the author of “Ritte and Hound in Ceylon.” “I had fired with- out killing the buffalo and had not a ball left. With a stealthy step and a short | grunt the bull advanced upon me, seeming- ly aware of my helplessness. Suddenly a bright thought flashed through my mind. Without taking my eyes off the animal, 1 put a double charge of powder down the right-hand barrel, and, tearing off a piece ot my shirt, I took all the money from my pouch, three shillings in sixpenny pieces and two anna pieces. Quickly making them into a roll with the piece of a rag, I ram- med them down the barrel. They were hardly well home before the bull’ sprang forward. 1 had no time even to replace the ramrod, and threw it in water, bringing my gun on full cock at the same instant. I now nad a charge in my gun which, if reserved till he was within a few feet of the muzzle, would certainly floor him. The horns were lowered, their points were on either side of me, and the muzzle of the gun barely touched his forehead when 1 pulled the trigger and three shillings’ worth of small change rattled into his hard head. Down he went and rolled over with the suddenly checked momentum of his charge. Away went B—— and I as fast as our heels would carry us, through the water and over the plain, knowing tnat he was not dead, but only stunned. There was a large fallen tree about half a mile from us whose whitened branches, rising high above the ground, offered a tempting asylum. To this We directed our steps, and after a run of 10v yards we turned and looked behind us. The buffalo had regained his feet and was following us slowly. We now experienced the difference of feeling between hunting and being hunted. By degrees the bull's pace slackened and he fell. We were only too glad to be able to reduce our speed, but we had no sooner stopped to breathe than he was up again and after us. At length, however, we gained the tree and beheld him stretched powerless upon the ground within 200 yards of us.” + 0+ —_ SETTLING DOWN TO ENJOY LIFE. At Forty the Matron’s Family Cares Have Generally Been Much Reduced. At forty, or after forty, begins woman's time for real living, says a writer in the New York Press, Her children are beyond the need of constant care, and she can, if she heroically will, reserve hours and hours for her own use and profit. It is pretty much a matter of personal choice whether one shall be old after any number of years. Age is largely a state of mind. At forty a woman has learned patience and has a prac- tical sense of the value of all those wise Saws that are meaningless words to the young. About the’ only thing she needs to learn is that not at any age is anybody old except from choice. Wifehood, motherhood, womanhood is, like journalism, a training for anything; and the woman of forty, with lelsure, for which she must struggle, but which she can gain, with a discipline of ex- perience that is better than all book study, with the struggle for a mere living about ended, can begin with radiant hopes a con- test for culture in almost any direction her choice may point. She is apt to deplore the loss of earlier advantages, to exaggerate the narrowing influence of years absorbed in purely domestic interests, to lack confi- dence in her ability to acquire much in the years remaining to her. Particularly, she is abashed before husband and children when she considers the question of “going in for something.” Yet, when she does enter an art class, a language or u history class or joins a woman's club, or takes up a course of reading with a home study club, or any- thing of the kind, she is as surprised as the man who survived his own wake to find herself still very much alive,very deeply in- terested and very determined to enlarge her ambitions. Even outside of purely society and domestic matters,the woman over forty can find a tremendous interest in life and an enjoyment deep and serene. ee THE DEEPEST MINE. America Now Has Penetrated the World's Crast Furtbest. From the Engineering and Mining Journal. The United States has now, we believe, the deepest metal mine in the world. Kor some time that claim has been made for the Maria shaft at the mines of Przibram [in Austria, which was 3 feet below the surface at the time of the great fire in 1892; and nothing, we believe, has been done upon it since that time. It has now been surpassed in depth by the No. 3 shaft of the Tamarack Copper Mining Company, in Michigan, which, on December 1, was 3,640 feet deep, and is now more than 3,700 feet, the average rate of sinking being about 75 feet a month. This makes it be- yond question the deepest metal mine in existence, and only one other shaft has reached a greater depth, that of a coal mine in Belgium, for which 3,900 feet are claimed. For the attainment of this distinction we have to congratulate Capt. John Dan- jels, the general manager of the company, for the skill and success with which the work has been carried on. In Germany | the completion of the Adalbert shaft to a depth of 1,000 meters (3,281 feet) was thought worthy to be the occasion of a public festival; and though the Tamarack shaft has been carried down to the pres- ent great depth entirely as a matter of business, and no especial formalities have marked its progress, the remarkable | achievement certainly deserves recognition, for not only has it been sunk to a greater depth than any before it, but it has been sunk with much greater rapidity and at less cost than probably any European shaft of any kind like its depth or in ground as hard.
