The girl was then closely questioned, and after much hesitation said that she was at the Union station January 28 and there met I'earl Bryan, who had just come in from Greencastle. She had known I'earl at Coates college. I'earl told her of her trouble, and the two went to several drug stores, where they procured some medicine. Sue declared that the meeting with the ISryau girl waa accidental, but confessed, underpressure, that there was an "aflair" between her and Jacksou and the murdered girl. The latter, she said, took the medicino and it ought to have taken effect in nine hours.

Now York, February 10 It is rumored in this city that General Enrique Collazo, one of the most prominent Cuban revolutionists in the country, has succeeded iti outwitting the authorities aud the army af Spanish spies and haj, with a party ot followers, sailed for Cuba to join the insurgents. General Collazo s expedition is said to consist of tifteen wellknown (lubans from this city, who had been living at the Hotel America since the Hawkins episode. Ihey are said to have gone to Noifolk, \ a., and embarked on the fishing steamship Isaac N. Veasey, upon wnich was a large quantity of arms and which slipped from port late last Wednesday night, even though it was watched closely by United States authorities and agents of the Spanish Government. Since then nothing has been hoard of the steamer, although the United States cruiser ltaleigh and the reveuuft cutter McLane have been searching the coast for her. The steamship had previously been laid up in a Baltimore yard and was gonerally believed to have been purchased by men who had arranged a tillibustering expedition. She went to Norfolk, and a woek ago yesterday ran out of Norfolk without clearance papers and with a number of men on board. Spanish spies reported that she wont to the James river and took on ammunition, then returned to Norfolk to leave there again on Wednesday.The men who represent the insurgents in this city were very reticent to-dav. Benjamin Guerra, treasurer of the Cuban party, said that he dul not care to either contlrm or deny the report. Tomas Estrada l'alma, the appointed minister from the Cuban Government, declared positively that it was untrue; that Collazo and hi" followers went to Tampa, Fla., where they are at present. There was also a rumor atloat today that the Cubans are organizing another expedition, to leave under cemmand of General Calixto Garcia. As the Spanish spies are watching their every move, they have to be very careful in concealing all information on such matters, and naturally deny such reports. Pennsylvania"" in Cuba.

Ten or more young men from that town have for some time been fighting for Cuba. On Saturday evening half a dozen othor adventurous youths came to Pittsdurg and offered their services to an enlisting agent, and are now On their way to Cuba. Another young man from Braddock, who has betii located in Cleveland for several months, wrote his parents that he was going to join the Cuban rebels at Franklin P. 1 filbert, who says he la from Clarion, Pa., and Prank Murphy, claiming to be from St. Johna, New- Kouudland, are bookod as suspicious characters on tho Allegheny police blotter. ThesL men, it seems, had constituted themse'ves a committee of two to welcome strangers and show them the sights Interesting on the North Side.

He admits to the ownership of two farms near Kreeport, one of which he rents and the other he occupies and makes profitable by running a general store as a side issue. When he struck here yestcaday he created a favorable impression. lie wore top boots, a corduroy shirt, slouch hat, averallsand carried a carpet bag. Hilbert and Murphy, so he says, met him at the depot and chaperoned him through the various saloons on Federal street, in each of which the guest left the price of drinks absorbed by the trio. The guides, he says, showed much solicitude as to whether his pocketbook would stand the pace set, and, despite hiB statement that he had money to buru, took him into an outbuilding and pulled off hia boots to see how he was ''heeled." It was at this time that Detective Mc Douough interfered. The committee did not relish hia presence and started with their booze banker over the Sixth street bridge.

Washington, Feb. 9.—The general debate on the free coinage substitute for the bond bill which was discussed day and night for four days in the House last week, will close to-morrow. It is the general expectation that a vote will oe reached some time on Tuesday. As to the result their is no sort of doubt Mr. Dingley's motion to non-concur and insist on the House bill will carry by a vast majority, probabely exceeding 100 if their is a full house It is not belived that Mr. Crisp's motion to concur in the free coinage substitute will muster over 100 votes, if any opportunity is given to concur in the last three sections of the bill, which are to redeem greenbacks in gold or silver at the option of the government, to coin the seigniorage and to retire national bank notes of a less denomination than flO. The vote may be close,but it is thought the parliamentary manipulation will prevent vote* except on the main propositions. draw (he world uuio lit'in-t-lf.

The world's salvation is based on God's inherent gooduess. As all the planets of the system are beiug drawn closor hiui closer to the sun, and are destined to be submerged and made over into new worlds, t-o all men are being drawn closer to Christ, and are being made new creatures iu Mini. The sun, like Christ, is universally heniticent. He shines on all. Being globular in form, his light and heat go out equally in all directions. We navo not had the slightest him that his heat is more intense ou oue side than another, aud as far as we kiiovv, he has no other mission than to con- trol, bless and save the worlds that move around him. lie is giving himself out constantly, without limitation or condition, to all existence within the range of his beneficent beams. The real essence of his being is being transmitted in his light. We arc too prone to feel that we have a monopoly of light. The Laplander, in his frozen sphere, cheered by his light, doubtless feels that this is his sun. In the extreme zone", as truly as in i lift Topic, no doub', each individual claims the -tin as his own peculiar luminary. Tnis is true and most effective. But we must not. forget thi tact, that whit" God smiles on us, and w ■ art! thrilled with his personal at lerittoiH, and ' 11 tens *iy personal lovr, tlial lie smiles with equal force on all other men. Tun efficacy of ChristV wc.rk is nut dependent, altogether on a knowledge i f that work. IK) lia« saved millions who never heard of the tragedy <'it Calvary He died in udea, hut he lives in all world's, and lias saved miiltiludes before the midnight surprise of Bethlehem. Some men may have the Bible and superior literary advantages, hut no man can claim any monopoly of the love of God, or any advantage of saving grace. If the atoning benefits of Christ were limited to a knowledge of his coming to earth, the salvation of the world would be a tragic failure. "The grace of God that, bringeth salvation hath appeared uuto all men," and millions are being saved in every laud and clime. The potencies of the sun energize the whole of his system. He ia imbuing all his worlds with all the vital qualities of his own being. These planets iive and move and haveiheir being in him, a« truly as we livo in tl e atmosphere that surrounds our earth. Their seasons come and go at his bidding. All the qualities and powers they possess they have dprived from him. They have nopowor of self-control aside from his rules. Wherever the sunlight goes, life and. energy prevails. This world of ours is run by the light of the sun. Energy in all its phases is but the work of sunshine. What is it. that runs our tlyingexpress trains? One says coal, one says i-team, and another would say both combined. It is run by sunshine. The coal in that (ire box is compressed light. Thousands of years ago before the earth had cooled down to its present temperature, immense forests grew on tho hills of Pennsylvania, which decayed in their time, forming the rich coal beds that now lie beneath the surface. These forests absorbed the sunshine for long periods, treasuring it away to light, heat, and run the enterprises of the earth in after years, when the surface was ready for habitation. The coal, gas and oil under our hills are all condensed sunshine. We are daily warmed, lighted and transported by sunlight. What is it that flies across the sea in such haste with our messages? You say electricity. That is but another name for sunshine. The earth gathers up its electricity from the sunbeams. For ages he has poured his magnetized light upon the globe. The whole earth 1b sensitive to his delicate touches. Every change of the sun's action is felt on the earth. The ner- vous system of the earth Is electric. It is sunshine that glows from our arc lights. It is sunshine that runs our street cars and carries our news. What is it that runs that grist mill ? You say it is ruu by water. It is run by sunshine. At the equator the sun pumps the water into the sky imparting to it a tremendous power. It is carried by the wind over the earth, falls in rain and descends the streams, with the same energy imparted in its ascent. It is the energy of the sunlight taken from the water by the wheel that runs the mill. What is it throDing in all seas ? It is sunlight. The waters heated in equatorial districts rise and flow toward the poles, being replaced by the colder currents from the same regions. What is it that waters our fields, gardens, and pastures ? It is the sunlight. It does not merely elevate the water at the equator. It puts energy into the wings of the wind. It is the The fjord (Jod inn sun. ltftilin M:ll We get tbe larger pan of our knowledge from analog). We can only understand magnitudes by comparison. Even with the weight and dimensions of the sun, accurately given, we could not comprehend his immense volume so well, as to compare him with other bodies more familiar. The same is true of Christ. By comparing him in the greatest variety ot ways, to a gicat variety of objects, possessed of varied beauties, grandeurs and excellencies, wo aro lead to a better understanding of the divine uature. In tlie comparison ot this morning's text »« have a striking illustration ot the glorious nature of Deity, tie issues ihe life and control of )iis system. L t, us npte first, that the sun is the center ot the planetary system, as Christ is the central figure of the spiriial organism. The planets ol this system atl revolve around him. Me is tli* controling force, though each world is an independency in its self, complete in all the functions, it its individual constitatio.. Wnili every planet moves, as though it were impelled by inherent power, and while it is thoroughly furnished with local statutes for local jurisdiction, it is subordinate in minutest detail to the mandates of the central orb. This divine order of things runs through the whole realm of activities, physical and moral. Motion is orbicular ever> where. There is a sublime centrality ot all energies. The whole universe of matter and spirit'is revolving around oue great, infinite center. There are myriads of minor systems revolving about their minor centers, utterly disregarding their subserviency to the sourer <>t all power. The astronomers tell in that our planetary system is infinitesimal that our orbs are mere sand grains in the great order of immensity, and that our sun, with all his wintering train, is moving around some greatei tun, and that greater sun with all lii.~ numberless constellations, is moving in obedience "> the laws <<t' a still greater nue. The systems are infinite and the center is infinite. This circular law of action has a l>eaulitul counterpart in the moral world. The whole of life is a magnificent circumference. Eacti individual life has its circle ot activities. Some are wide,! some are narrow, but the simplest analysis will lead any rational mind to God, the great source from which all blessings come, from the smallest to the greatest. Mont men have a home. That home is the pivotal point in their lives. Where ever we are, whatever we are doing, our i-onl is at home. Here we gather together the results of our labor and enjoy them. Here is the most peaceful rest, the tenderest solace, the purest joys, aud the most exalting devotion in all tho world. Homo Is the cardi- nal center of existence, but we have wider interests still. We arc immediately concerned about the community or city in which our home is located. Here is a wider circle. The safety and comfort of the hearthstono depend upon the moral and commercial integrity of the municipality. We have a special interest in the laws, the law-makers, the industries and the welfare of all the citizens of which our city is composed. Our municipality is the offspring of the commonwealth. Whatever is of spe cial interest to the state in which we live, is of interest to us. We widen and multiply the circles of activity as we grow into an appreciation of tlie vital relations we sustain to tho mure remote centers of our being. Tho state is a child of tho republic, and we are intimately associated with all legislative and spiritual life in the national capital. Our republic is a member of the great fraternity of republics, our world is a child in the great sisterhood of worlds. All hearts, homes, cities, states, republics and worlds revolve around Christ. How gloriously the whole creation revolves! How beautiful the harmony, and how exact the obedience of every part, to the mandates of Him who sltteth at the right hand of tbe Majesty in the heavens ! The sun, like Christ, rules by virtue of his inherent drawing power. Christ said, "If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me." Gravity, material and spiritual, ia the ruling power in all governments. The sun has no external aids in holding the worlds to their paths. He is independent of all outside forces. Held firmly in the bonds of his attraction, the obedient orbs fly around their circles from century to century, making their journevs with infinite precision. Our safety depends upon the sun sustaining his power to control his system. Who of us ever lost a night's sleep, or even had a moment's anxiety, for fear of the dissolution of the Universe? Probably such a thought never entered our minds, and still we have the most heart-sickening apprehensions concerning the drawing power of Him whose fingers fashioned all the suns that deck the midnight aky, and hung them in their places, with far less exertion than you or I could swing a chandelier in onr parlors. Solar power overcomes all the centrifugal tendencies of the planets. Christ's power overrules all the centrifugal tendencies of men. The salvation of the world is not dependent on the acceptance of any doctrine or theory.
