The big Cunard liner Trnn-Sylvanin, in todny from Liverpool with IHiG pafscngers, had ft narrow escape from detraction by ft mine nt 4 o'clock in the morning of December 6. During a tonn off tho north rortht of Ireland two mines were dashed together by the waves and exploded about twenty-five feel off the slenmcr'H bow. A fragment of steel from one of the mines shot across the deck of the liner nnd toro away a part of tho rnil Inp". It then fell upon the deck and wn picked up by one of the passen gets. Tho forco of the explosion, it was unid, lifted tho bow of the Trnn-Sjl-vtinin out of tho water? recently published of J. S. Howard, tho venerable "father of iMcdfovd." Most of Us come from tho oast some yesterday, some the dav before, and some, like -lr. Howard, half a century ago. The only reason that the vest of ns did not come along with Mr. Howard was that wc wore not born. We couldn't very well come from the west, unless wo were Orientals. re want easterners and advertise for them. They make good citizens and help in our development. "When they show interest enough in the connnunitv to devote time unci energy to secure more efficient government they prove their good citizenship. Most of our development has come from tho oast. Tho money to build the railroads, the irrigation projects, the power plants, the lumber mills, the factories all came from the east. Even the money to develop our orchards is eastern money. It is said that pioneers took over a hundred millions in gold out of southern Oregon. "What did they do with it? Thev used little or none to develop the count rv that pro duced it. It went to enrich other regions. Now we have to go to other regions to get it back for development pur poses here and the easterner furnishes it. Our present civilization is as deficient as the aboriginal civilization the pioneers found. AVo are supporting 25,Q00 people in the county, when, if it was properly developed, wc would easily support halt a million. In spite ot all our progress we have only made a beginning. Wc nil want Mcdford to have the best and to be the best. "We want to cull nnd borrow and appropriate the best the entire world has to offer) so thnt in turn we, too, enn offer the world something worth while. And to do this wc must use the enst nnd the west, the north and the south. No effort that strives to better conditions should be treated lightly. No unselfish striving to improve the municipality should meet with ridicule. No stranger that has an idea' to offer should be spumed, li does not make any difference in this world where you were born or what your nnmu is it is what you lmve done and what you have to offer. Hertford has always welcomed the stranger, and always will, for most of us realize that .the snobbish provincialism )red by isolation is just as intolerable as the snobbishness red by society conventionalism, nnd we would build n city free from thctvrannv of formula where man was judged by merit. NINE KILLED BY BOMBARDMENT SI BY GERMAN SHIPS GERMANS S llUl.Ti, Dec. 10, via London, 2:15 p. . Nine persons nio reported to have been killed nt Hartlepool ami a number Injured In the bombard ment ot that port by German cruts. erg this morning. The bombardment of Hartlepool lasted for twenty flvo minutes. The hostile ossols, which took part I tithe operation are estimated from two to nix, but never onco wero they clearly visible from tho olioro. The forts In the river Tees replied to the fire of tho Ucrman vessel. Pieces of shell hnu been found all over Hartlepool. Tlje damage In flicted on the town is said to be con stdcrablc. Ono of tho shells lilt a gas tank and set It afire. The crowds ran hurriedly to the railroad station, nnd all who could, boarded the train that was just leav ing for Hull. Seeral buildings In Scarborough hnvo been damaged by the fire from the (ionium warships. Another witness from Scarborough said that a largo amount of debris was scattered about the square near tho railway station by the shell.flrc. Hoofs of bouses were torn away, windows were broken nnd holei were bored en tlrely through Home houses. The huge chimney at tho brick works was knocked down.

The tiiflinioiuctfr hero reglMoted 0 degrees below pud nt Ku)ispl 2 bclotf, (By Dr. J. Law retire Hill.) The Bible has n divine nnd human side, hence its charm mid jxiwer over the human heart. It contains the fin ot literary productions which have been comj)ocd in nny ogc. Its char acters arc developed in the most ex quisite biographic the world has seen. It hits no equal in literature. In specimens of descriptive stylo the Bible surpasses nil literature. In na tivo .simplicity and grandeur it trans cends the ancient Qreck nitthors. The profoundest thought and deepest phil osophy of nil ages arc found within its pages, mid it discloses, ns no other book does, the eternal mid unchang ing counsels of tho uncreated God, which work out tho course nnd prog ress of His government and pioviden tial dealings with men. The most gifted men tho world has seen have drawn their inspiration from the Bible. Goethe, Heine, Mil ton, Shakespenrc, Buskin and others too numerous to mention attribute their mastery of the English language to a study of this book. There nre no songs like its songs, nnd no ora tions enn equal those of the prophets. Its events have furnished themes and inspiration for painters, pdets nnd sculptors. Nor has modem genms ceased to drink deep nt this fountain of lcligious inspiration. The paint ings of a Raphael, the "Messiah" of a Handel, tho great speeches of the orators of nil modem countries, the masters of fiction, all tako their deepest meaning, beauty nnd strength from the influence of this book. It ' furnishes Iho grandest system of cth icB, a system that is n mint and con tains no contradictory elements, such ns nre found in heathen philosophies. It stands today ns firmly us ever in the literature of civilization, inoic widely known thnn any other book as to the languages into which it hns been translated, mid is enlisting in its udvoeiu'v nnd defenso men of the most varied gifts and tho most un doubted intellectual probity. They have lead it with criticul cnio; they have considered tho force mid nlue of every assault rondo upon it; they hrivu tested ith leachinss under nil possible circumstances, mid ns the re sult of tho most penoliatiug criti cisms nntl tho most Dinctical exjcri enecs they are willing to risk upon obedience to its spirit mid teachings nil that is most important in conduct mid till that is solemn in destiny. 11 is a tongue for the dumb, eyes for the blind, the comer-stone of ev ery human nnd enduring institution, th( defense of every noblo cause, the fear of tyrants and tho hope of the oppicsssd; nnd mv contention is that a book with such a history is n wit ness of its own insnirution; and n book with such u spirit ought to bo spared the sneers of skeptics who in directly owe to it all that is good in themselves, and nil that is freest and grandest and most enduring in the fiviluiition which they enjoy. There is nothing to be compared to it in nil tho snered books of the Ori ent for goodnKs, purity. loftiness of thought, holiness mid loe, for mo tive to noblest action fanil ns n regen erating forco. It contains the treas ure of a most original literature, stir ring history nnd romantic legend, cos mical theories nnd priestly injunc tions, profound metaphysics mid pithy proverbs, psalms of unrivalled grandeur and pastorals Of exquisite loveliness, jmrnbles fraught with sol emn meaning, the mournful wtedom of the preacher, the exultant faith of the nposttc, thn matchless eloquence of Job nnd Isaiah, nnd the apocalyptic cctnsy of St. John.
