How Convert Was Made
A lay delegate to the Episcopal con
vention of the Newark diocese which
recently elected the Rev Dr Lines of
New Haven as bishop was very zeal
ous in advocating the selection of an
other candidate One of those he ap
proached objected to his candidate on
the ground that he was not sufficient
ly strenuous in his methods
Sfhy you must bo thinking of somo
one else said tho layman in surpris3
Let me give you an Instance of his
methods
When he first took charge of his
present parish he was the same fine
specimen of physical manhood that
you see to day but -withal displayed a
lovely character of gentleness except
vhen you tried to corner him There
was a worldly minded young man in
the town who held several medals von
in athletic contests especially in box
ing matches
The physique of our rector excited
the admiration of the champion and
one day in a fit of athletic frenzy he
said meaning no disrespect but being
governed by his ruling passion
My dear doctor if you were not a
minister I should like to have you put
on the gloves with me I believe I
could knock you out
The rector like most modern
preachers in the Episcopal church is
fond of athletics and had stood pretty
well up in football at his college Be
sides he is tolerably broad ecclesias
tically So he said to the young cham
pion
4I will make you a proposition I
Charles F Holder the naturalist de
scribing a pet pelican which he form
erly owned in Florida says I can
not recall that the pelican ever re
fused food After the most impossible
feeding it had the same dejected
half starved attitude and the same
asthmatic cry for more It was only
after many months that I discovered
that the pelican can never be satis
fied He thus describes the fishing
exploits of these birds In feeding
they generally flew twenty to thirty
ieet above the water with rapid mo
tion of the powerful wings holding
the head slightly upon one side that
they might observe the schools of sar
dines When- tho latter were sighted
they would plunge blindly downward
opening the mouth widely just before
they reach the water endeavoring in
this clumsy manner to catch the fish
which not being able to see upward
were entirely ignorant of the nearness
of danger Rising after the plunge the
pelican invariably wags his diminu
tive tail a self congratulatory act
which confirms the birds stupidity for
w
e
lies
It is a curious thing and one that
remains a standing puzzle even to
those connected with the business all
their lives that tight rope trapeze and
other daring performers who chiefly
fwork in the open air are far more li
kble to sudden nerve failure and to
stage fright if it may be called than
are the fellows who only show their
prowess under a roof
Another fact equally well known is
that once a woman performer has
heard the ringing shouts of an ap
plauding public once she has learned
some dangerous feat she will run
risks and quite fearlessly perform
tricks that no male in the same line
would dream of The woman athlete
has not to be urged on she has to be
restained more often than not It
may be said at once that few among
the public know how near death such
people occasionally are
Puzzled by His Ambiguity
A baby was born to a certain min
ister last Saturday morning says an
Oklahoma paper That evening the
officers waited on him with 50 in
cash The next morning when the
congregation assembled two wags
stood before the church door and one
bet the minister would thank the Lord
for the money first and the other bet
he would thank him for the baby
When the reverend gentleman arose
to pray he said Lord we desire
will put on the gloves with you for a
quiet bout If you knock me out I
will agree with your friends that you
are the champion If I knock you out
you shall attend church every Sunday
unless hindered for one year
The young athlete extended his
hand on the proposition He was in
a glow about it not so much because
he was sure he would wrin as hq was
an admirer of the rectors physique
I dont know where the contest
took place I could not swear that it
ever did take place But very soon
after the incident I have mentioned
that younaryathlete becam 3 a regular
attendant in our church Then he was
confirmed and of course is now a
full fledged churchman All inside of
a year
And while he is fond of hunting
fishing and cross country running etc
he never speaks of boxing any more
But he is the best churchman in the
parish I think the rector knocked
it out of him Dont you think that
a preacher who could do that Is
strenuous enough to be a bishop
The delegate whose support was be
ing solicited replied that he was in
favor of type of man for bishop and
he pledged his vote then and there
The vote was not delivered however
for the rector refused to be a candi
date before the convention The lay
man who tells the story added
Thats the sort of preachers the
church needs to day preachers who
can knock a man into4 the church it
it cant be done in any other way
New York Sun
How the Pelican Feeds
the chances are one to five that it has
caught nothing The bills are held
upward the water allowed to run out
of the enormous pouch and then if
any game has been caught the pelican
tosses its beak upward which throws
the fish forward or toward the point
of the beak where it is often
held a few seconds from here
being dropped as it were into
the threat which is a very small
orifice in a veritable waste of
pouch At this moment perhaps a
laughing gull robs tha pelican Some
times it alights on its back again on
its head and the stupid bird makes
no resistance the gull often uttering
its victorious ha ha in advance Just
as the fish is thrown to the tip of tha
beak and protrudes from the side the
laughing gull leans forward snatches
it and rises aloft to in turn be fol
lowed by the swift man-of-war bird
In this simple way a pelican will bo
robbed by successive birds and will
swallow but a small percentage ol
what it catches which possibly ex
plains why it is always hungry
Made Fitzs Mead Swim
The worst two minutes I ever had
In theVring said Lanky Bob Fitz
simmons to an admiring acquaintance
the other day was with Peter
Maher in New Orleans in 1892 I
guess I got a little careless and let
him punch me on the head Fitzs
head fits a 6 hat It seemed like a
trip hammer had struck me My head
buzzed and swam and got light My
brains didnt work I didnt seem to
know what to do I was on my feet
all right but I had lost all sense of
generalship The only thing I did
was to jab at Maher with my left
iwhile I struggled to pull my addled
brains to their senses The round was
nearly over when I came to The first
thing I realized was that jabbing was
just what Maher needed so I kept it
up through the fight and won in the
twelfth round without striking an
other blow
The second meeting between Fitz
and Maher occurred at Lantry Tex
in 1896 The Cornishman declared
openly that he intended to settle the
fight with one blow I have never
forgotten that time Maher hit me in
the head he said and Im going to
make him sorry he ever did it Im
going to hit him once Hell lie down
when I do it Listen to what Im
saying Im going to hit him once
After the battle Fritz said to his
friends I never saw anything like
it in the ring in my life When Maher
stood up before me I could see a
look of awful fear in his eyes as they
saw me put out my left as if I meant
to do some jabbing His hair almost
rose on end He hadnt got over that
awful punishment in four years My
left must have stuck in his craw He
made a swing at my head I stepped
aside and as his own head went down
my right met him on the point of the
chin The floor was his and he stayed
there I said Id hit once and I did
Nerve Faffs
As illustrating both the facts stated
above the writer can never forget see
ing a woman tight rope whose rope
had been left too slack She was per
forming at a great height and when
she got to a certain distance along
the rope the latter sagged so that she
could neither advance nor retire The
public knew nothing of the danger till
the manager in an agony tried to get
two immense ladders tied together up
to the rope But this arrangement fell
short and even if it had not done so
no one would have dared to rest it
against the swaying rope At last the
ladders were held boldly upright by
strong men till the topmost rung just
touched the rope and then the gallant
young fellow a sailor went up while
the ladders swayed about as though in
a breeze He snatched the woman on
the rope and held her just as she
fainted and dropped the balancing
pole

It seems probable that before long
he dogs as well as the daughters of
rich and fashionable folk will be sent
to Paris to finish their education A
school for dogs has been established
there Many society women already
employ a maid or a man as a dog
attendant whose duty it is to train
and to accompany their pampered
pets But it is now possible to send
them to a school where they can he

A New Headlight
A recent Improvement in railroad
locomotive headlights is to send a
beam of light vertically from the lo
comotive as well as straight ahead
The column of light rising vertically
from the locomotice can be seen from
a great distance even though a hill
Ehould intervene to hide the ordinary
headlight and dull the sound of the
whistle The searchlight effect used
abroad ships is thus to some extent
utilized An approaching locomotive
with this device alvays signals its
coming with a pillar of fire by night
producing an impressive as well as
useful result

I had taken the first bes I felt already
a heap better I was relieved of the
pain and could walk and chop wood
and the contraction of my fingers be

Now since I have taken six mere

well again and am able to do all the
