AT the great ordnance establishment

A LONDON cablegram of Jan 10Th says:
Most intense excitement was occasioned
to-day by sensational scene in Halton
Garden. At an Italian church, while
the priest was celebrating mass, man
in the audience fired pistol at Him.
The church was crowded and the noise
of the explosion caused q panic. The
altar was struck by the bullet, and subse-
quently flames started out from the sides
of the altar, and the church was dam
aged $1,000. The man was arrested by

had a long stiletto in his hand with
which he attempted to stab those who
seized him. .,s

ss'ATrue Fable. q

Detroit Free Press. !

A wolf, who was known among his
friends as sagaclous, swift, sly and en-
during, and who seldom went. to bed
hungry, one day met a wood-chop-
per's son in the forest. f Hostilities be
tween boys and wolves had been sus-
pended for a short time on account of q
p-meeting in that neighborho and
the wolf and the boy, therefore, sat
down on atlog to discuss the weather
and draw. each other out on the trans
formation theory. ,
The wolf never had fair chance to
look 8 boy over. His rule had been
to eat them first and look them over
afterwards. He now observed that his
companion was twice as handsome as
he was, and the fact ranked in his
ealous mind. He forgot that hes had
been differently graded by natufS in
the beginning, and he began casting
about to see how he could get even.
He finally made up his mind that it
was the boys red coat which made the
difference. and so he carelessly OBJ
served: ~.
II don't suppose you'd like to part
with that old patched coat of yours,
WOulu you {!
The boy was up to string-games and
balloon ascensions, and he closed with
an offer to lend the wolf his coat for
week if the latter would guide him to
a den where three young foxes could be
secured.
AS soon as the wolf secured the coat
he wrapped it around him and declared
the truce between the wolves and the
boys at an end. That had been his
little game from the start. Sounding his
war-howl, the wolf summoned his
friends to help make bologna of poor
Tom, but as the eager brutes came up
they went for the red coat and the bov
went for tree.
No wolf has any business wearing a
boys outfit, even if it would add to his
beauty, and this one was soon clawed
into bag-strings and his bones hung on
a jack-pine for the wind to fool with.
Looking down from his perch in the
tree the boy remarked:
I'm the first place don't try to play a
swine game. In the second place don't
60 on the principle that everybody else
is fool"
MORAL:
Preserves won't last without sugar,

A Jealous Preacher Disappointed
Springfield (Mass.) Republican.

A good man, conspicuous for his help
full interest in the young, occupied the
pulpit of Unitarian church in western
Massachusetts on recent Sunday. His
heart was gladdened by an array of
bright looking boys on some front seats.
The speaker talked at those boys with
genuine enthusiasm, his ardor rising at
the seeming quick response with which
his earnest words we're met in the bright
ened eyes and attentive attitude of the
chosen objects of his personal applica-
ton" of most wholesome truth, The
preacher was little puzzled at the un-
seeming levity Of the congregation, but
his burning zeal was not quenched, and
he drove the truth clean home with
sledge hammer blows. ]. Going out dfthe
sanctuary, the visiting brother, still
glowing with the pleasant warmth of
successful effort, asked Nthe pastor who
those bright looking boys were on
certain seat. Those said the minis
ter, gently, 'are the pupils of our deaf

apple box, outside measurement

often used for plums also, is 22xl4x6.
The orange box is S3x199x24.
Cherries, which were formerly ship.
ped in large boxes, now come to
market in box measuring 4x6x15
inches, though some are put in small
round boxes very much like fig
drums, six Inches in diameter and
four inches deep. Strawberries come
now in the ordinary drawers, in
case, each small drawer measuring
l5xS9x29 inches or in baskets four
inches square, or in the yet smaller
baskets of only two inches in depth.
These last are intended to show off
berries OF unusual quality. Black
berries and raspberries, if Of natural
quality, pay for putting in these
small parcels. Currants are never
shipped otherwise than in the
drawers In cases. Figs come in
various styles, but as a rule the best
are in small square boxes, or in shall
low cases admitting of two layers
only. Grapes of the best table
varieties are popular when put IN
five pound boxes, two of which set
in a light frame, for easy carriage.
This is good way Of shipping a
long distance.
This much having been said about
packages, it only requires to add a
caution as regards the advantages of
properly asserting the fruit. Good,
bad and Indifferent in one box spoils
the sale of all. Let the fruit be OF
uniform size and quality from the
top to the bottom Of the box. Some
fruit growers are undoubtedly guilty
Of some sharp practices in these mat
ters, but it is comfort to know that
in the long run the paths OF strict
honesty and continual neatness are
much the most profitable.
