Will They be There?

1. the subjoined, which sug-csts to our !mind
that the newspaper man gets there every
time: "In the Minnesota senate not long
ago the chaplain startled that august body
n by closing his prayer with a word for the
e newspaper men. He said: 'And now, dear,
Lord, bless the reporters whose nimtble
Spens catch our every word almost before
it is uttered. Like Thyself, they are om
e nipresent and almost omnipotent. If we
take the wings of the morning and fly to
the uppermost parts of the earth they are
there. They meet us in the jungles of -
Africa; they waylay us in the solitary
P canyons of Colorado, and when at length
we find the latitude of the magnetic pole, I
1 behold, they are there. May their light }
and goodness be equal to their power; and
k when the general assemnbly of heaven
convenes, let no r';;;,:'Tcr be excluded.
