Effects of Il Long Sermon.

THE large congregation that attends

amused a Sunday or two since by an
incident that occurred while the elo-
qaent and learned pastor was preach
ing sermon on Saint Thomas"
He had devoted some half hour to that
disciple, when something led him off
on to Joseph Cook and some Of the
subjects on which that gentleman has
recently been lecturing here. Forget
ting his manuscript and watch that
lay on the desk before him. he went on
and on for another half hour in a
flight of eloquence that was very in
teresting to all but the unfortunate
people of --- avenue, who were keep
ing one ear open for the semi-occa-
sional sunday horse-car that takes them
home. suddenly its approaching bell
was heard by all but the clergyman.
As the sound grew near and nearer a
portion of the would-be passengers
rose. hoping 10 quietly slip out Of the
church. Just then one OF them-a
gentleman-dropped the watch that he
had been holding halt-open in his hand.
II struck the f0or and rolled a short
distance with a noise that covered the
departing persons with confusion, es-
pcciAly As the paTson suddenly coming
to himself gazed At them blmdly an
Instant and looking at his watch
started back with establishment at the
lateness Of the hour, shut the leaves

A Rat in q Bustie.

But for the pluck of a young pref
ty woman the other morning there
would have been an exciting scene
in local train on one of our rail-
roads.
The blustry condition of the morn
ing made people don their clothing
with an unusual degree of alacrity'
The young lady referred to took the
train, and having settled herself in q
seat commenced to review a hastily
made toilet.
Feeling something move behind
her she gave an indignant look at
the young man who occupied the
seat with her, supposing that he had
placed his hand upon the ground
oacred to the latest style of hustle.
A crawling sensation quickly con-
vinced her that something other than
human hand was threading the
mysterious mazes of the garments
beneath her red petticoat.
She followed the object with her
hand until it made a semi-circle
around her body, and then seized it.
Had the young man dared he would
have assisted her, but those striped
stockings, that had just cost seventy.
five cents, were not to be protaned
by a mans rude touch. Pale as
death, the young lady whispered to
him to raise the window quickly
He did so, and supposing that she
might have eaten something for her
breakfast that did not agree with her,
he instantly hoped ont of the seat.
Scarcely had he done so when, with
her other hand, she drew forth a
huge rat and slung him into the
middle of next July. The animal
had probably got in'o the hustle as q
roosting place in the early hours of
a very cold morning.
