Me., some of the restaurant keepers obey the liquor law. but they try to be good and have things convivial, too, as witness such advertisements as these: "Have you trieU our birch beer in steins?" "After ths theater nave a welsh rarebit with root beer drawn from the wood." "Order a toby of lemon soda with the lobster." Rev.Mr. Groas of Springfield, O., preaches oa Sundays and runs an undertaking estab llshmsnt during the rest of the week. The other.' morning on arriving at his place of business he found a couple waiting to be married. Tbey were in a hurry and had no time io go upstairs to a nice room, where Mr. Gross usually ties the nuptial knot. Bo tley stood up among ths coffins and ether vgrewsomely inappropriate parapher nalia and were made one. A. pair of enterprlalng burglars visited Newburg. O., one night last week, and atole a new one-story frame building from a corner lot. The next day they returned svnd tried to sell the lot, but the owner of the property had meanwhile learned of the removal of his house, and arrived on the scene In time to frustrate their plans. Ell Mlnch, an eminent New Jerseyite, . who died the other day, never smoked, chewed or drank, never went to a theater or circus, never played cards. 'checkers or dominoes, never skated with a airl, never was In love and never married- But. then, Noah Rabr, the New Jersey msd who did all the things Ell Mlnch didn't do. and a few stunts on the side. !s still alive and will shortly celebrate bis 107th birthday. Those persons who are looking for a Uat on the evils of the strenuous life will do well to pass up the Jersey crowd. Postmaster T. L. Carter of Orange Court house, Va., was one of Mosbr's men who was reported to have been killed at Front Royal during the civil war, and his name appears on the monument at that place In honor of the dead confederates. He was sick at a hospital In Baltimore some months ago and It was announced in a paper that he was dead, but he is still alive and ac tively serving the government as post matter at the thriving town of Orange. A decision of an Iowa court Is now at tracting attention. Mr. Crum was engaged to marry Miss Chrlstianeon, but Just be fore the wedding day Mr. Crum died. Thereupon Miss Chrlstianson sued the es tate for breach of promise. The Jury took no account of the Interposition of Provi dence and rendered a verdict for the womaa for $6,000. Evidently the Jury came to the conclusion that It was bad faith on the part of Mr. Crum to die on the eve of hia mar riage, for which bis estate should pay. Examples of heroism In ordinary life la the line of simple duty have not been want- ins of late, but none has surpassed that of two trained nurses in a New York hospital In charge of a girl of 14 suffering with smallpox, who, when placed with her In a tent la which the Ore had been blown out by s fierce gale, spent the night "lying oa each side of the patient to keep her warm with the heat of their bodies and so save her life. Even the courage that would dare a 8aa Juan charge or rush Into flames after explosives might well shrink from a risk like this. "The moat peculiar accidental death I ever knew to befall aa animal was that of a greyhound I saw killed 'in California," said Mr. Samuel V. Franklin of Los . Angeles, Cel., to a Washington Post reporter. "A party of ua were out hunting, deer with la couple of greyhounds. The dogs started a fine buck, and we were In hot pursuit when) he left the prairie and entered 'a ' little clump of timber growing out of the plain like an oasis in a desert. One of the dogs was close to the buck, and when the latter dodged behind a tree be dashed right into it. The dog was running so fast I sup pose he was going at the rate of about a mile in a minute and a half that his skull was cru.liea and hia brains knocked, out. He uei luaUuiiiy. When you consider how nimble the greyhound la the manner of his death really seems remarkable." They West Back Uos After toe drawing for land at El Reno last summer, relatea Lippincott's Magazine, two young men sent home such glowing ac counts of their 160 acres that their' fond parents decided to give them s little sur prise in the shape of a visit. The boys had written that they already had a. house upon their land, and were living In It, ao papa and mamma planned to.stsy wltk them during their sojourn. ' Whin they drovs from ths station to tko 160 acres said to be occupied by their off spring they, could find no trace of the aforementioned house, but they spied a Joint of stovepipe sticking out from. a alde-htlL Upon Investigation this proved to be the "house" mentioned in their letters. It was s dugout, and upon ths door, .which was locked, was a printed sign, which read: Forty miles to wood. Klghty pilles to water. Uod bless our little home. Pspa and mamma drove back to the sec tion boss' shack and took ths next trals heme. TOLD OL'T OF COURT, . - i ! A Montana attorney writes to Case and Comment 'as follows: "Recently I had oc casion to defend a client In the police court of this .city for resisting an officer. After the city had put in its case I moved to dis charge the prisoner for the reason that no evidence had been Introduced showing re sistance on part of defendant. ' The city at torney argued the matter at length, when I made a bslef reply; whereupon the Judge announced 'that the prisoner was guilty and lined $5,' to which I Immediately replied that the court evidently did not understand the situation, it was a motion to discharge, and. If that was overruled, I would then in troduce evidence, when his honor very in dignantly replied: 'Your motion was not seconded; the prisoner Is found guilty-' " A .Kentucky attorney sends to Case and Comment a certified copy of the following opinion of Judge Toney of .the Jefferson circuit court: 1 petition.. The plaintiff alleges tn his peti tion that 'the defendant m ployed him In July, 1901, to scatter and sprinkle parts green on his potato vines to klU lady buga, without ' warning plaintiff that ths parts green mixture" was poisonous; that ths weather was . hot and - that hs, the said plaintiff, left hia clothes open and that ths flesh of. the exposed portions of his person, coming, in contact with aald parts green, was poisoned and that 'he waa thereby made- sore and caused to suffer for many weeks In body aad mind, etc; all through the gross carelessness and negligence of defendant la falling to give him notice that the said paria greea mixture waa poison ous, eto.' , "Ths demurror must be sustained for ths following reasons: . "JL The plaiatUI had fta right la for soa- scientlae or in foro externo to make an In decent exposure of his person while en gaged in killing lady bugs. "2. The defendant exceeded the scope of his employment In sprinkling parts green elsewhere than on the potato vines, aa his special and exclusive agency was to kill lady bugs backing In ths shads of said po tato vines. "3. The plaintiff's act In allowing the de fendant's parls green to come In contact with his fleeh, Instead of with ths flesh of the lady bugs, was unauthorized and ultra vires. i I "4. The mental and physical suffering of which the plaintiff complains was ths result of his own wrong In misapplying the de fendants parts - green to purposes other than those for which he waa employed to apply it, and, besides. Is damnum absque Injuria. "5. The plaintiff in opening his clothes and exposing himself to tbs lady bugs and ths parls green was guilty of contributory negligence. ' ' ". The plaintiff kflew as well as the de fendant that paria green was poisonous, snd If he did not know that parts green was a poison then this suit should not have been brought in h's name, but by a com mittee appointed to represent him." RELIGIOVS. The will of Msry O. Cor win, m ho died re cently at Grecnport. 1 I., leaves flO.uuG, th bulk of. her estate, to relieve needy Bi-lrftualuitH. Klehop FSwler ' advises'- the colored preachers to "cut out the big words." But omcumes the big words have great ef fect upon an audience. The Buptlfta of New York City propose to ruliut Sl.uuO.UO to pay church debts aud to extend their church work tn the bur outfits o Manhattan and the Broils. Mubort Chapman, on oX the Flymeuth r.rethren. Is preaching in Devonshire, at the age of 100 years, lie has preached for sev enty years without a break, lie once waa a Ixndun lawyer. The membership of the various religious bodies represented on the petition for a religious building at the St. Ixuls fair is suld to be more than 25,uu0,uu0 in the United Slates alone. Ambrose 8. Ottey of Cecil county, Mary land, has made a systematic reading of the Bible for the last thirty-three years and ran tell the number of letters in the scrip tures, how many times they appear, the number of chapters and verses, what words spell the same either way, etc. He has Just finished reading the Bible for the 117th time. Henry Ward Beecher relics aro the most interesting feature of the Plymouth church fair, now being held tn Brooklyn. They in clude his letter of acceptance to the call to the church In 1M7, and the manuscripts of many of his noted sermons.

A writer In a Catholic periodical notes the striking .effect on religious statistics of the acquisition of Porto Hlco aud the Philip pines by the United States. By including the population of the Islands as given by the Bureau of Statistics he finds that of the church-going people under the Amer ican flag if.uuu.uuO. or more than 6v per cent, are Catholics. The officers of old St. John's church, on Church bill, Richmond, Va., contradict with much warmth a published story to the effect that the venerable structure Is to be sold to make way for a block of com mercial buildings. The senior warden. Cap tain Cyrus Boaaleux, says that the church does not owe a cent to anyone.
