White, notorious thief in Worcester
county, Mass. He was once arraigned
for horse stealing and was supposed to
be connected with an extensive gang,
which were laying contributions on all
the stables round about. Many induce
ments were held out to White to reveal
the names of his associates, but he main
tanned a dogged silence. An assurance
from the court was at last obtained, that
he should be discharged upon his reveal
ing, under oath, all he knew of his ac-
completes. The jury was accordingly suf-
fered to bring in q verdict of Z" not
guilty." when he was called upon for
the promised revelations. g 1 shall be

1t Would be Queer If True.

At wedding in South Carolina last
month an incident occurred aptly illus
trating social life in the United States
The bridegroom, who belonged to the
" first Southern family" took exception
to the phraseology of the officiating
clergyman and remarked:
g You shouldn't say those uns whom
Lord hath jined together, but them
uns."
The preacher, who prided himself
upon the =" high-toned' quality of his
language, quietly dropped his hand into
the pocket of his surplice and inter-
polated:
{" You jlst paddle yer own canoe young
feller, or your trouble'll begin soon
enuff. I'm runnin' this tea party, am
AS said afore, my beloved hearers
those uns as the Lord"
just then the bridegroom made mo-
ton towards his hip, but before hecould
draw, the minister fired from his pocket
and the young man fell dead at his feet.
Instantly the whole church was filled
with blazing pistols. In less than five
seconds the only person left alive was the
bride, who had ducked behind the pull
pit early in the action. The halfmar-
ried female gazed musingly around and
remarked as she started for home:
"These selfcockin' revolvers is play
ing the mischief round here and that's a
fact. -Erchange.

e. M. Hale, Of that city, told Chicago
Tribune reporter how he diagnosed a
case where he was called Through the
telephone Of the District Telegraph
Company by a distant patient whose
baby was presumably with Group.
He asked the temperature of its body,
symptoms, breathing and cough, got
them to hold the child near the instru-
ment till he heard the cough and cry
which indicated Group, prescribed the
simple temporary remedies, had the
telegraph office place him in communi-
cation with druggist, who was in
structed to prepare prescription, and
in few minutes the druggist had called
messenger and sent him with the
medicine, and the doctor and the drug
gist had returned TO their beds.

A soOtchman's PRAYER.
MIHAT do you think of this for a
w prayer at family Worship

NHAT do you think of this for
w prayer at family Worship
Adam Scott gives the following as a
prayer once offered by shepherd, and
grandmother has herself heard prayers
almost as plain, in their comments on
the people around, from the lips of
Scotch and Scotch Irish folk:
1--WE particular thank Thee, for Thy
great goodness to Meg; and that it ever
come into thy head to take any thocht
of sic a useless girl as her. For the sake
thy sinfu' creeturs now addressing Thee,
in their ain shilly-shally way, and for
the sake of mair than we daur weel
name to Thee, hae mercy on our Rab.
Ye ken he's a wild, mischievous Gallant,
and thinks nae mair of committing sin
than dog o. lickin' dish. But put
Thy hook Until his nose, and Thy bride
Until his mouth, and gar him come back
to Thee, wi a jerk he no forget the lon
gest day he has to live. Dinna forget
puir Jamie, who's far away frae us in
the enicht.-Keep thy arm o. power aboor
him, and 1 wish we wad endow him
VII little spunk to act for himself for
if ye dinna he'll be but bauchle i this
warld, and bach sitter il the next.
Thou hast added yen to our family lone
of his sons had just married against his
approbation.) So has been thy wull
1t wad never hae been mine. But, if it
is o. Thee, do thou bless the connection.
But, if the fule hath done it out o. car
nal desire, against a. reason and credit,
may the cold rain of adversely settle in
his habitation. Amen.

How He Won His Drinks

He was sad looking tramp, with a
panied expression of face, that entered a
Sutter street bar room the other day,
holding in his hand a small, battered
red canister:
Look at this" he said, sorrowfully.
" L went into a gun-shop and begged for
something to eat, and the mean man
handed me this can of powder. He said
] could go shooting-a starving man go
shooting. "Just think of it''
Well, mizzlel" retorted the bar
keeper, who had just set up four fancy
drinks for row of customers.
''I pledge you my word," said the
vagrant, holding the can within an
inch of the open stove. :" I'm so mis-
erable, I've almost mind to blow my
self up"
" Dare you to do it, said one of the
by-standers, winking at the crowd.
The wrecked party gave sad, linger-
ing look at the poured out liquor,as that
he might meier behold again, and tossed
in the can.
The yell that the whole crowd gave as
they started for the other side of the
street was heard on Telegraph Hill
When they filed in about ten minutes
after the empty can did not explode
there were four empty glasses on the
counter, the lunch table was an empty
mockery and the till looked like saw
ings bank on the day after really large
deposit.

Amen.

Deacon B, of Ohio, was very pious
man, was noted for his long prayers, es-
pecially in the family. Monday morn
ing the deacon and his wife were alone;
as was his usual custom after breakfast
prayer was offered. There being an un-
usual amount of work to be done that
day the deacon's prayer was short.
He seized his hat and milk pail and
started for the barn. His wife being
very deaf, did not notice his absence, and
supposed him to be still engaged in
prayer. On his return from milking he
was surprised to find her still kneeling.
He stepped up to her and shouted
Amen" when she Immediately arose
and went about her work as though
nothing had happened.
