Katun, of the Church of the Divine I'uternity, took the 8 ix th *-“ Thou «halt not k ill"— a« hi« text. The«e are «omu of tie' tMiiifa he »ui«l: “ Amonjf the popular form« of mur­ der w ar mu«t bo placed l!r«t. The t ruining of the world ha« boon aucb that people have come to think that the law ••Thou «halt not k id” only ap- plleB t<» individual« and not to the State. For an individual to murder i« a eriin«!, but for the people in a collec­ tive capacity to devastate the territory of their neighbor« is considered per­ fectly legitimate. Individual murder i« a crime, but wholesale murder is civilization. W ars of defense some- tune« become a necessity, but the larger proportion of wars have been a.id still are aggressive, being waged to gratify the ambition of some ruler or ‘to preserve the balance of power,’ as it is called In Europe. The pretext is frequently made of defending the in­ terests of oppressed countries or that tin* wars are waged for religion, but such wars not only cause a great sacri­ fice of human life, but make many desolate homes and undermine religion itself. Ilowovermuch we seek to glorify the soldier's profession, it is at best a necessity and al tb * w en t am urderou« trade. ••Other popular forms of murder arise from the narrow attic, the fold basement and the crowded factory, amid the cries of men, women and chililrim, whose lives are being crushed out by a condition for which somebody is rcsoousible. I hrough the burning days o. summer, the cold of winter, in hunger and in rags, with w h ite - fa c e d children crying for bread, needle-women toil from twelve to four­ teen hours before their daily task is d on e. The greed which to some ex­ tent underlies modern civilization shows itself in the cruel disregard of the ordinary means of protection to workingmen “ In refusing to put, a roof over the heads of the workmen, the foreman of the shop sai«l that men were cheaper than shingles, and that there were dozens eager to take the place of any man who should fall by the way. “ Other forms of murder show tlicinselves in constant attacks upon tiie happiness of the home, upon repu­ tation and in gm sip which takes away a good name and breaks down health by persecution. “ The spirit of I lie commandment also includes the murder of the soul, and this kind of murder may he prao- ticed oil ourselves or on others. There are some things worse than physical death. “ If the spirit of the sixth command­ ment were obeyed, the greater portion of tiie world's sin would disap­ pear, human sacrifices would go on no longer, and plot«, conspiracies, riots and revolutions would cease; in fact, th«‘ spirit of persecution would entire­ ly disappear, prosperity would follow, science enlarge Its boundaries, and manhood mid womanhood would bo eunobl'sl.” .V. T. Herald. The Eastern papers had been circu­ lating the rejiort that nearly every farm in Dakota was plastered with a mortgage and that all of them were for sale. Chip and I were determined to break this re|H>rt if we had to visit every quarter section in the lerritory | in order to find the exception. W e had traveled fifty-seven days in this pursuit, and our iron determination was fast turning into lead, when we rode up to a large building with a small farm that evidently belonged to it. I A man sat on the fence whittling a A M E R IC A N ORATORS. CtxnracterlNtlc» o f «ir.Mil Mon fo r T a l k le g . H enow ncn stick. “ W e are collecting a few items, said Chip, as he drew out his note- | book. “ I suppose this farm raises the usual 60 bushels of wheat to the acre? corn, 125? ’taters, 600 a n d ------ ” “ H o ld on!” cried the man, staring at him with a strange look in his eye. “ Yor’ll have ter revise them figgers a bit. Set the wheat at 10 bushels per acre; corn at 25; and taters at 50." “ W h -w hat?” stammered Chip, as his note-book and pencil dropped to the ground. “ Say it again, friend. Rind o’ slow. Mebbe my pard can catch on­ to the racket.” The man repeated his statements. As soon as Chip could rally ho went , on: *,Ye’ll o.'O'Use the question, but, cotr ferdonshally, the amount of mortgage on this ere farm is------” “ Nary a cent,” came promptly from the man. Again Chip was about to collapse, but ho roused himstji for the final question: “ And tho price?” “ Not for sale.” I raised Chip from tho ground and propped him against a post. Just then a man came running from the house with a pair of handcuffs, and took the man from the fence. W o had struck the lunatic asylum and had been talk­ ing with an escaped lunatic. “ This poor fellow onco owned a small farm which ho would neither mortgage nor sell,” explained the overseer. “ People flocked to nee him from all parts of tho territory, and ’twnsn’t long liefore wo had to bring him here. He imagines that ho owns this place, and still clings to his old ideas." “ But, pard, we’vo struck a place that ain’t for sale, anyhow,” cried Chip, re­ covering tho use of a tongue that seldom failed him. “ W ell, I don't know 'bout that,” said tho man. “ W e've had this asylum here for several years, and now our neigh­ boring town wants it for awhile. They offer a Wit and new buildings free. It is probable that this place will be in tho market in a few days, if it is not al­ ready.” Chip was getting nervous. Ho ex­ plained our mission to tho overseer, whoso keen eyes, meanwhile, wandered constantly from one of us to the other. Suddenly a change of his features showed that his doubts hud settled into conviction. At the same instance strango suspic­ ions Hashed into our minds. We leaped to our horses and set off at full sjieed. Wo gave up tho search. Our labor had liocn in vain. Hut we were thankful to know that we hud escaped the insane asylum. And when we came to reflect on tho matter, it gave us no small pleasure to be able to indorse one item concerning tho West, when found in an Eastern pajier-— C. L . H ill, in I'id - BiU.
