Although the self-alleged millionaire

the notorious UirdloMann , lias" been sobered
up for about forty-eight hours , ho yet rn-
inalns In n dnrlc cell ut pollco Riatlon , making
no effort whatever to sluilto the belief now

declines to telegraph to Dcadwood and sock
to establish the line largo identity which lie
claims to possess thcro us u.rich tind widely
known stoekman. The painted croituro
whom ho so suddenly tied to in bona ll'lo
matrimonial fashion paid him a visit
yesterday , and in the presence of an
oulr-er again urged that ho matio some
sort of nn effort to mitmro himself
ivitti the world in general and her In par-

lie replied :
"Well , now , mama , you know I'm all right
nnd - "
"Don't 'mama' mo ! " savagely snapped the
woman. "Get onto yourself brace up and
tell mo whom 1 shall telegraph to at Deadwood -

Kcv.V. . 0. Ilnrshu's Sermon on lr -
17 Jhiul'4 i'ntrou ! S ilnt.
Tlio following is a synopsis of n sermon
delivered at the First Presbyterian church
by Ilev. W. J. Harsha , D.D. , on the subject
"St. Patrick and His Times : "
As n convenient-text for what I have to
sav tonight I will ask your attention to
Acts VL , 9 : "fnoro stood a man of Mace
donia aud uruycul' him , saying : 'Como ever
into Macedonia and help us. ' "
St. Patrick was uot a Roman Catholic. Ho
was as near n Presbyterian as anything clso.
though his creed needed revision. To begin/
with , bis father , though a clergyman , was
married , nnd his grandfather , though a
priest , was ulso murried , nnd St. Pntriclc In
mentioning theseTac.U does not indicate that
they wuro out of.tlio ordinary customs of the
priests of the , Utneu St. Patrick was inde
pendent of Homo. In his ' 'Confessions" ho
never mentions Ilomu or the popo. Ho deus
not uppnal to tradition to establish anything ,
and iu his. frctlucnt quotations from the
scriptures scorns to take them us sulllcient
'for all questions of faith and morals. All of
which gees Jo prove that ho was not n Homaii
Catholic.
Ho calls his fattier , n presbyter. In the
Hook of Durroiv ho in himself called a
presbyter , and Venerable Dode calls , him n
presbyter. This docs not. urovo that ho was
u Presbyterian , but it docs give nn idea of
nmjeublo equality oetween the clergy of the
lime. His doctrines are simplicity itself ,
nnd ho evidently knows little of book and
pandlo nnd earns less. Salvation in Christ
, thc Lord is his only gospel nnd ho is deter
mined not to know anything but this among
men. With him is inseparably connected
the name of St. Bridget , and It lius strik
ingly been Bald that Ireland was converted
by two slave * \vho had never been to Homo ,
neither bail they any connection with tlio
pope ; so that the ordinary course of church
History was just reversed on that island.
In other countries there has boon a progress
from Catholicism to Protestantism , but in
Ireland the chaugo was from a sami-Protest-
untism to Catholicism.
St. Patrick was born in Scotland , nt a
little place which mon claim , they can still
identify as Kirkpalrlclr between Dumbarton
and Glasgow. His original name was Sue-
cat , and is said to moan "strong in war. "
His parents won ) ChrUtians unu no exompll-
lles anew the intluunco of godly parents upon
tlio future lute of thuir offspring. What they
taught tboir little boy in the old Scottish
homo was to bear rich fruit In the troublous
llfo ho waa culled to lead. Whan ho was
sixteen yearn of ago lie WAS carried away
captive in an incursion of Irish chloftains ,
utid for some six years'was ' a Hlavo on the
island which now hails him as Its patron
paint , Ho'tolls us In hhi "Confessions" that
his occupation nt this lima was to
food the cattle of his master ,
and vho beautifully describes how elton -
ton ho would turn from these pursuits to
kneel ( town and pray to the God of his
fattier and mother. Hero I sun a polntca
lesson for the young men 'vlio are uwuy
from homo and who are surrounded by
temptatlous which i-tcin to intorfara with
their Christian growth. Vou may well take
luttcni after the bravo cuetoni of the slave
lad , and pray to the God you have learned
to revere at the old homo , for surely your
trials nnd distractions are not greater than
hlH wore.
By a bold attempt and after great fcird-
ships St. Patrick ut length nude hU escape.
Hut iio had not boon nt bouio long before ho
was again taken cautlvo aud again carried to
the Uland on which his missionary labors
wore to bo performed. You sco from ull
this how God prepares ir.nu for their llfq
work by adversity and trial. It is uot clone
sailing with the won wljoin God Intends to
iiao for tlio emancipation ot the race , In his
lonely captivity St. Patrick had opportunity
to incdlutu , as David and Mlcuh nnd Moses
before him Hind-uoue. And Iu tliU time of
hardship , when the lad may have often felt
thuUtlod had forgotten Him , bo was learning
the language of the common people of Ire
land , a posiossioo which enabled him to dq
the work of evangelization which has do-
Bcmidod to us in oomioctlou with his namo.
Having ( or the second time imulo his es
cape from his captors ho wont back homo ,
but his spirit was stirred within blin. His
parouts uusired him to rest quietly where ho
-was , but the thi'tight of thn great unsaved
inaiB of popplo over on the IMund'drova
sleep from his oyollus. lie speaks of n
divine voice that over sounded in bis oars.
Or if hu slept it was only to sea vltioua of
mo-isoufora from Ireland eutrouting tiiia to
comeover , tq the help of tbo people. Tuo

With a company of friends and follower !
ho returned to Ireland about the year 450

ought to bo until the people got back to the

A Inrgo nml apparently very friendly au
dlonco gathered to hear Father Huntlngtot
r.t the Hoyd Sunday nfternoou on the solu
tion of iho social iirobloin.
Trtfcyoumj preacher began by a. short review <
view of lui lecture on the previous Sunday ,
Ills former talk , bo said , had boon devoted
mainly to picturing tbo evils that existed ,
with only u hint nt the causa nnil the roni'
edy. Now ho proposed to awoll moro par
tluulurly upon the remedy. The spcakoi
then dwelt uuon the industrial condition ,
Ilo spoke of the unrelenting , dally grind foi
bread nnd of ttio growing dissatisfaction ol
Jho masses. Men every whcro felt that the
times were out of joint and eagerly looked
for Bomo ouo to mend them. So universal
wns this discontent , so eager were the people
to cscnpo their hard lot , that no schcmo wns
too visionary , no sophist so unwise
but that the ono would Hnd advocates
and the other enthusiastic followers. It was
any whore , anyhow out of the hell of the
present. Impossibles Utopias , castles In the
uir to which no lafldiir reached up wore
the hopes of many so unwilling to believe -
liovo were men that there Is no dolivorouco.
Mankind then was looking aud longing for
something better , watching' aud waiting for
deliverance. What was the nvonuo of cs-
sapo ? Who would bo the loader ? A famous
ministo had said the thrco T's Thrift , Toll
and Tempera nee would solve the problem.
How would toil remedy the evils under
which men groan ? There are people in New
York Citv who certainly toll hard
enough , yet they are poor. Ho know of people
ple who worked seven days in the wopk ,
from C in tbo morning till 0 nt night , they
were painfully saving and strictly temperate ,
yet they were very'jioor , they only existed.
Surely the world was working hard onou li ,
much too hard. Did nnyono bollovo that tha
hardest workers got the greatest rewards ?
How could the poor mail be economical ? Ho
paid moro for everything than the rich. Ho
bought coril by the bucket , paying four
nrices for it ; ho bought flour bv the pound
his limited resourses compelled him to bo

If in Enclnnd hundreds of years ngo the
people lived and were happv only worlcins
eight hours a day , why couldn't men do 15
now. Then industry was an infant. Men
turned up the ground will n crooked
stick or spade. There were none of
the inventions Which have sinuo added
so wonderfully to the productive power of
labor , steam had not yet been harnessed ,
electricity was a rnysterious tiling , yet with
methods cruao mid wasteful und with im
plements of tno very rudest kinds the
.Briton ot' that time made u living working
shorter hours thnn'hls ' descendants do today ,
and these days uro still looked ; back to us
the goldqn eco of Worry England the good
old days told of In iQiigand story. Mora work
was not thn remedy.
Prohibition was nut forward bv many M
the panacea , but fri , the first place prohibi
tion didn't prohibit , ' and it it could it would
do nothing toward the solution of the
economic troubles 'It it accomplished all its
advocates claimed ilor it , if it closed every
ouloon , matters would not. bo improved , they
would bo oven \V rse. It would only inten
sify the trouble. . Drunkenness was caused
by poverty , not ppvorty b.v drunkenness.
Where men wcrojjcfrcod to work long hours
for low wanes th'oy became brutalized. The
animal iustincts'got the tisceadeucy and they
cured only for animal pleasures , hence the
drunkard.
The speaker declared his belief in trades
unions , and said ho was u member iu good
standing of the Knights of Labor. The eight
hour idea , ho said , wa a good ono : ho believed -
liovod in government control of all businesses
which in their nature were monopolies -tho
telegraph , railroads , street cars , water
works , etc. but ho was not n socialist , nor a
communist. Onttie contrary , ho was an in
dividualist. Ho did not believe in iho gov
ernment interfering in things that individuals
could do to better nuvantniio. Uellatny's
plan ho considered a very lubberly schema.
Father Huntington's remedy is in sue
stnnco the abolition of all indirect taxes ,
from the tarlil tax to the poll tux. There is
no now law to bo made to begin with. It is
essentially a loDping-olT process. There is
now n tax on nearly everything. Abolish
nil these but or.c. the tax on land values ,
and the raincdy remains "tho siugla tax. "
This , he argues , is the nrat nnd fundamental
reform. All other * are but superficial. If
you improve methods of production purify
the administration of governments , run the
railroads nnd the telegraph free , raise wages
by the power" of labor unions , tench mon to
bo sober ana thrifty and to work hard every
day it will all result merely In the increase
of wealth , land will become moro valuable
and the landlord will bo the gainer , not the
woruers. The people rnaiio land val
uable , therefore- the Increase. be
longs to tha people. Let mon bo
sober and > honest'nnd thrifty , but
let thorn reap the rewards of their virtue ,
not the landlord.
The great trouble was the monopoly of
land. If land values wcro taxed high
enough no man coula afford to hold land for
speculative purposes. Vacant lands would
ba improved , jind the whole community
would reap the benefit. Natural resources
would bo thrown open , and want nnd the
fear of want would disappear , for every
man would bo nblo to employ tilmsolf if no
ono sought his norvlcas.
At the end ot his spocch Father Huntington -
ton answered several questions put to him
by uorsons in the audience , nnd invited
these who felt that the remedy proposed
was'n wise ono to attend the eomi-monthly
Sunday mooting ot the Single Tax clubuit
Goto City hall.

is that the long haul must bn in proportion

rates. The Inevitable tendency , therefore ,
is to increase the long haul rates in order to
maintain the short haul. Whenever the op

It had been un extremely hoi tiny , not
n cloud to bo soon.with the sun bunting
ilorccly down and not u breath ot air
stirring.Vo sat out on the porch nf-
tor , supper , trying t > o lind n cool placo.
The clouds wuro beginning to gather ,
nnd it looked as if there might bo a
shower. The three liitlo ones went
early to bed , and in spite of the oppres
sive heat were teen fast asleep.
Itcouldu'thavo been far from So'olock
when I heard a. sound which I at first
thought was thunder- The others no
ticed it , too , and as itgrovvluuJor a ter
rible rushing sound came with it , nnd
we looked at one another in silcnco for
a minute , and then ran to where we
codld look out westward.
My boart almost stopped beating when
1 saw coming toward us with tcrrlllo
speed , a black , funnel-shaped cloud , the
rush and roar accompanying it growing
louder every minute.
"Run for the cellar. " I cried.
My wife ran and seined the baby , and
I caught up the Uvoothcr children from
the bod. There was no time to lose.
The ono who lirst reached the cellar
door it was one of the older children
had just time tu siezo the Unob , nothing
more , when crash ! such u terrilic
noise ! I felt , myself lifted iu the air ,
and thought my time hud come. The
next thing I knew , I felt the splash of
cold water in my face. I must have lo-st
consciousness , but the water revived
me , and in a moment I know where 1
was.
was.I hnd como down head first into tlio
well !
The water was some ten foot deep. 1
was thoroughly at home in the water ,
though I wasn't used to diving in that
fashion , and I managed to right myself
and come up head llrst.
The well was not moro than three foot
across , and ( he pump hud been broken
fahort oil and curried away , leaving a
two inch iron pipe standing slr.iight up
in the middle.
I was very nearly out of breath when
I came to the top of tha water. My
hands touched something floating on
the surface. I thought it was the cat ;
imagine my surprise when I found it
was Charlie , our live-year-old boy !
Ho.v.is terribly frightened and as
nmux.ed as I was tn llnd himself notiilono
iu the well. The wonder was that wo
were not both of usimpaled on that iron
pipe ; how we o&enped it I cannot undor-
bbllld.
The cyclone had passed on , and a tor-
rillc , steady wind was blowing. I could
hoar it roar above our heady ; and by the
flashes of lightning I could see that rain
fell in torrents. Wo were both so wet j
we didn't mind the little extra water |
that splasheu down on us , and as soon
as possible I raised Charlie so my shoul
ders , and by aid of the pipe managed to
work iny way up to the top of the well.
This took some little time , and the wind
and rain had nearly ceased when I sot
'
my feet on solid cart'li again , and found
we were unhurt.

The general accepted story is that the
wait/ comes from Germany , but a little
investigation will show that the htato-
ment is open to discussion , says tlio San
Francisco Chronicle. As far liaok as
the twofftli century the wait/ was
known in Provence , out under the name
of the volta. Tlio song which accom
panied it was called a tmlludn. Under
Lou la VII , it was brought fiom Pro
vence to Paris , and was the fashion dur
ing the whole of the sixteenth century ,
especially in the luxurious court of the
Yalois.
Tuon the Germans adopted it , and the
L'rovencinl vo la b-camo : the Gorman
waif/ . The yearpas'cil , and then in
ui' about 17I.H ) tlio waitonoo moio
crossed the Hhi no and was introduced
into France. From Franco U was taken
to England ; thence it spread to thin
country , and became the favorite dance
of the civilized wor d.
Taking all the various accounts into
consideration , it is very evident that
ihoru is a dccidod break in thu imagin-
nry gpnealogy of the wait/ , the balance
af'ovidenco being in favor of the con
tusion that the waltz which ( irst msulo
