Never sickefl, weaken or gripe, A DAY TO BE REMEMBERED. nisuoi' TATUM was nous sevknty-skvkn YEARS A00 MONDAY. Ono of tho most marvelous men of recent times is Bi-hop William Tuylor. The story of his lifo is full of iuterest from the time he was 12 years i age down to tho present time. He waa born in Bookin idgo ninty, Va May 2, 1821.

His boyhood years were spent among rough pioneer country scenes. He was converted in his 20th year.and through his tilcnts wa- soon called to preach. His training was not th it of collegos and seminaries. Instead he was very early called to pass through' experiences that might have daunted tho heart of many ai old, sturdy mis? sionary. Among the rough mountain? eers he speedily gained a reputation.

His method ol securing their hearts it illustrated by tho followirg incident: When a farmer desired lo clear thc fallow from whieh he had recently cul the timber, the men for miloa arounc came by invitation to help roll the logi together to be burned. These meet iogs were generally the occasion foi great exploits. When the day's work was done whole crowd would have supper, anc Ibo nearest fiddler would be brought and preparations made for a dance, Whiskey was plenty and this, togethei with tho jol'ity of the rosy-chcekec country maida, soc roduced a gay But it was not all gaiety, for il was a rare thing for an evening of this kind to pass without somo of tho feb lows getting into a frequently tho jealousy of two br.wny sons ol the forest developed into a general molee in which several heads might be badly bruised aod an occasional skull cracked, One day, coming upon such a gather? ing, yojng Taylor hitched his horse to a tree and wont to work with a hand? spike rolling logs. Ho was strong and vigorous and knew tho log-rolling business quito as well a. any of the rest.

At night he quit and told them that tho young preacher sent by tho bishop to that circuit would preach that night in the chap. 1. They thought to themselves that if he were as good nt preaching os he was at log-rolling lie would bo worth going to hear. The result would be that ho would lave done more to reach the heat ti of poor pe plo in that nfternoot than ie could ive done in weeks of preach ng. Taylor was admitted to tho Balti nore Conference in 1845.

In recom nending him his presiding elder said, 'Hore is a young man whom the sun lovor finds in be.l." Ho experienced i uiie very exciting incidents in tho arly days of his frontier preaching. was a giant in strength and frc juently a display of bis phy trial prow won for him the c.teem and ad? oration of the ronyh frontiersmen every other eflort would havo ailed. His bi sent him to Cali crnia in 1849, at the opening of the jreat miDing boom. He preached in lar-rooms mid saloons, and in rough iiining camps where men thought only if gold and cared not by what means hey got it. But Taylor always got a loaring.

He had the knaok of getting nto the good graces of thoso fellows nd they loved and respected him, and lot a few of them were convortcd tin? ier his ministry They would not at end church or meeting anywhere, so had to go to them. From Cali ornia he went to India and Africa, ihoie ho has done noble work in the ause of Christianity. If ever there a sucees-ful missionary it waa laylor. Ho was able to adapt him ell to any condition in order that he night accomplish his. purpose- He iras made bishop of Africa in iince that time has added several hun Ired thousand to th membership of the ll.

E. Church, Ho has wrttten many oligicus works bearing on missionary uibjects. Through tbe infirmities of hu now laid aside from active luties, but his old-time fire and zeal emaiii, and evin now it would not ako much persuasion to make him for jet hit years and go again to the wilds if heathendom. -Utica Saturday Globe.

Darn ('rmi. Sola Boatoa. Bow lo Cara Ecaama," SPLENDIDBUST OF MR. TUCKER. Richmond Times.

The bust of the late lamented Hon. John Rmdolph Tucker, which will be placed in the Tucker Memorial Hall at Washington and Lee Univcreity, in Lexington, wits cast Thursday at the stuelio of Ihe well known sculptor, Mr. Edward V. Vulonting, No 80!) east Leigh street. During the casting there were present two or three friends of the sculptor, who had asked tLe privilege of witnessing tho process.

Thia was entirely successful and the last step before tho completion of the work, which was naturally a source of some little anxiety to Mr. Valentine himself, left only tho mechanical part to be done beforo tho bust will be ready to send to Lexington, whenever the hall which it is to adorn is prepared to receivo it. Not until a day or two ugo was it known that Mr. Valentine was at work on such a bust. With his characteris? tic retired and manner the sculptor had mentioned the fact to few people, but worked on quietly and stu? diously towards tho perfection of ono of the most beautiful specimens of his art yet made by Mr.

Valentine. THE SCULPTOR'S For several weeks ho hns been at work on the bust. Ho was a personal and intimate friend of the ed lawyer. He hal studied the man? ners, tte tastes the feelings, and, in large measure, the thoughts of Mr. Tucker.

His admiration for the man himself, ss well as tho mngnilicent mental attainments and intellectual strength that gave him a conspicuous place in the front ranks of American datesmanship and oratory, and sonn? his name familiarly among niem jers of tho American bar, was broail ind sincere. He had listened for hours it tho conversation of the great Vir? ginian, and his iuterest at grew ntensp. With such personal relations between ho two men it was na.ural that thc iculptor should have gained a certiin idditional inspiration beyond that rhich a true artist feels in his work olely from the fact that the results of tis libers when approaching the higher aot.vos ho has held before him com iine to make some contribution to the field of art. The influence of the able jurist up the sculptor is brought out in no mall measure in the work as it stands -a speaking i nage of the original. In he bust there is the same strength of haractor, tho same force of expression, rhich marked the man himself.

Intel 3ct, life, mental flori, are all disccrui le. 4 rAITHruL LIKENESS, Tho pose is admirable. Standing im ledately in front one obtains a shade aore than three-quarter view.

The detail is beautifully vorkod out. Not a faint line is over ooked which could add to tho perf? ection that the sculptor achieved. It 9 a faithful portrayal of the mau.

It is understood that Mr. Valontino ionsidors this one of his best efforts. few who havo seen it havo pro lounced it the of the finest specimens if sculpture yet dono by him. Proc? essor H. St.
