At an Episcopal convention, a
discussion on temperance brought
up the "wine question" a part Of
the clergy advocated its entire dis
use, and part took the other side.
At length an influential clergyman
arose and made vehement argu-
meht in favor of wine, denouEcing
the radical reiormers for attempt
ing to banish this token of hospital
ity from Use. When he had resum-
ed his scat, layman, trembling
with emotion, rose and asked it 1t

chair having signiticd thathe would

q father in moderate circumstances,
who was at much Inconvenience to
educate a beloved son at college.
Here this son became dissipated,
but after he had graduated aud re-
turned to his father. the influence
of home, acting upon q generous ma
ture, actually reformed him. The
father was overjoyed at tile pros
pect that his cherished hopes of
other days were still to be realized.
Several years passed, when the
young man having completed his
professional study, and being about
to leave his father, to establish him
sell in business, he was invited to
dine with a peighboring clergyman
distinguished for hospitality and So
cial qualities.
At this dinner, wine was intro
duced and offered to this young
man, he refused; pressed upon him.

1 AMUSING SCENE on A STREET
CAR.-The passengers on one o
Riker's street cars laughed some
yesterday morning at q scene be
tween the conductor and a we'll
dressed young man, at the time
standing on the platform taking il
easy, with one foot on a trunk, he
was approached by the conductor
and his fare demanded. He quietly
passed over his five cents.
Conductor.--I demand twenty
five cents for that trunk.
Young Man. (hesitating)-Twen-
ty-five cents? Well, | think /
will not pay it.
C.-Ihen shall put the trunk
off.
Y. M.-You had better not, Or
You may be sorry for it.
Conductor pulls strap, stops car,
dumps trunk on the avenue, starts
car, and after going some two
squares, approaches the young man,
who was still calm as a summer
morning, and in an angry mood
says:
"Now I have put your trunk of,
what are you going to do about
it,"
Y. NJ, (coolly)-Well, I don't
propose to do anything about it;
it's no concern of mine; it wasn't
my trunk.
Conductor, (iercely.) Then, why
didn't you tell me so?
Y. M.-Because you did not ask
me, and | told you you would be
sorry for it.
G., (furiously) y)-Then 60 inside
the car.
Y. M.-Oh, no! you're good
enough company for me out here.
At this juncture a portly Ger
man emerges from the car, and an
grily says:
"NIinc Gott you teller, whereis
mine drunk ?"
Y. M--NTy friend, I think that
is your trunk down on the avenue
there.
German.-W Who puts him off? I
hafe de monish to pay him, | will
see about dot.
The carwas stopped, and shortly
afterwards the conductor was seen
to come sweating up the track with
the trunk on his back-a part of
the performance he did not enjoy
halfas well as the passengers.
