Short Stones
of the
- Stage -
There was n rumpus In the choir of
St. Jnrlath's church last Sundny. If
you don't know where St. Jurlath's Is
no matter. The tenor was rehearsing
-It was just before tho congregation
en me In and he
-AH!"
seemed to bo In
tent on giving
some pnrtlculni
note a twist
which grated on
the musical
nerves of the
choir master. The
tenor said he sang
It according to
Rcore. TI16 cholt
mnster said It
was not so writ
ten. He nlmnsl
put the tenor
In the Ananias
class. After the
service the choir
master told the
tenor he needn't
come round any
more. The tenor
appealed his case
to the priest. He
said the note was
written n sharp.
The choir master said It was written
natural. The priest called for the
score.
An Investigation soon showed thnt
n hole had been punched In the score
just before the tenor note. It' made
the note look like 11 shnrp nnd the
tenor sung It as It looked. The tenor
was reinstated, but the choir master
gave It out thnt hereafter all scores
would be examined by him before the
singers opened their mouths.

A little Incident a mere speck In

looms up, ac
cording to tho
way you look at
it, In the great
pageant. The
flnauce commit

the public to
contribute. Tho
mite was Invited
to take Its plnce
along with the
mill lonalre's
check. A motor
man on one of
the south side
lines took his
hour off and
walked Into the
com in It toe's
room and la lit
down a dollar.
He seemed to Tin. moiohman's doi.
think that his i-ah-
dollar would not attract much atten
tion. Ho hesitated as he was about to
leave, and, turning back to the socio
tary, he said: "It ain't much, but I
was born In the same county as Lin
coln. When I was a boy 1 saw him.
Ho spoke to me once, and 1 always
remembered how kindly he did It. 1
Just thought I would like to add this
little."
Thore were ' ninny names on the

William MrrciiKM., Attorney
for I'lalntlll
Unless ono who Is church Inclined
get one's bearings In Chicago one Is
liable either to become Involved In 11
row or be a witness to It. Now In
these days comes one with tho prefix
Hew his name Is not given hero, al
though the uamo has been printed In
the dallies preaching a mixed .gospel.
0110 which has a Scriptural basis on
whHi Is erected a business sermon.
IIo Is generally known ns tho merchant
preacher. A question of difference
sprnng up between the secular divine
nnd one of his members. It was about
money advanced for the purchase of
bonds of a proposed temple. The rum
pus got right Into the pulpit. The min
ister referred to It In his last discourse.
He Is reported as follows:
"That follow Is beneath my notice."
Tho term referred to the lnymnn In
question. The discourse continues:
"My sermon wns based on 'The Second
Mild Disciple.' Part of the text was.
'If n man nsks for thy cloak give him
thy coat also,' etc." The minister snld
that, as his father was born hi Ken
tucky and his grandfather In Virginia
and his ancestors before them came
from Scotland and Ireland, he found It
prQtty hard to live up to the text.
"Dr. told me," said the inerchnnt
cleric, "that the man (referring to the
'follow') nsked him If I were a danger
ous man, and the doctor told him that
I was a Christian gentleman, but that
I was an nthlcto as well and would
knock the daylights out of n man who
would crowd me." This language from
tho pulpit rather startled the congrega
tion. Hut thore was more to come. By
tho time the dear people recovered the
pastor, raising his voice another notch,
Inquired: "Say, would a little bug In
tho road stop an automobile? Shall I
bother with every dog that barks nt
my heels?"
Then the congregation wns nsked to
rise and sing while the deacons passed
the plates. Tho world must not un
derstand from this that It represents
the churches of Chicago. It Is worth
giving merely to show how cosmopol
itan wo are. If there Is anything that
tho world wants It can get It In Chicago.

reports have hlnce linked her name
with various men of distinction, both

Miss Hnrrymore. who Is a daughter of
the late Maurice Harrymore and Geor

appearande on the stage In 1893.
Tho matrimonial experiences of tho
noted operatic prima donna, Cmma
Haines, would make material for 'a
very up to date problem novel. She
obtained a divorce from her husband,
the famous artist. Julian Story, al
though he wished to remain her part

lowed her through Europe seeking a
reconciliation. Mr. Story has always
declared his former wife to be a wo

differences between them. Now the

waybatk days tho preachers were wont
to visit the members of their congre
gations, .v minister was liable to drop
hi most any time except Monday, but
as- the city spread out the custom
staggered and tinally was relegated to
the class that used to be. One effect
of this was that the.members got n bit
lukewarm hi their social intercourse.
Koine had to be reintroduced when
they met. The ministers have been
looking into the reason for the cool
state In the church. Just what they
found out has not been told, but it has
been announced from the various pul
pits that in tho future the pastoral
visits to homes will be resumed. It is
believed that such visits will so wnrm
the members that they will get ac
quainted again.
