week to leave between two days. No good
reason is known for his sudden departure

his kindness of heart and high toned Schiv-

A statement of American missionaries In
Turkey, soliciting Germany TO secure from
Russia guarantees of religious liberty before
eonsenting to the dismemberment of Turkey
or Russian occupation was published on the
21st. They say the Turkish Government
affords better assurance of religious liberty
than some forms of Christian rule which
might replace 1t.

An Astonished President.

The President of one of our leading life
insurance companies was very much sur
prised and astOnished, last Sunday, by a
call at his house about nine o'clock in
the morning. Two carriage-loads of
persons and hearse stopped in front of
his dwelling which, by the way, is To-
Gated in one of the most aristocratic up
town streets in the city. The neighbors
opened their blinds, and were amazed at
the sight, A funeral oppositel Why, it
aods a surprise; and the idea that there
should be only Elo0 carriages Tor tuner-
al from such an aristoratic house was the
cause of equal wonder. However, the
outdoor establishment was slight COM
pared to the unutterable amazement in
doors. The President came downstairs,
and, when he heard the explanation of
his unlimited guests, he could not control
his risibility. 1t seems that the corpse
was that of an honest Teuton who died
the day before. His life had been in
sured in the company, and the friends
and relatives had informed the widow
that she could not collect the insurance
money until she had taken the body into
the presence of the company's author
lied representative, and convinced him
that the deceased was the person insured,
and that the deceased person was really
defunctl 1t was Sunday, and the honest
mourners knew no other way than to stop
the funeral-procession at the house of the
Life Company's President, and show him
the body. The widow had the policy
with her, and, when the President or
dered the procession to move on, she was
inclined to predict an attempt to swindle
her,-N y Cor. Chicago Tribune.

Gen. Sherman called the meeting to
