Doctor John w. Kennion, formerly a
journalist in the city of Brooklyn, has
been engaged for the past five years in
preaching to the neglected and outcast
population Of New York, on the public
streets, in the hospitals, and wherever
else he could get an audience. The re-
suits of his labors are said to have been
very satisfactory. Large crowds gath.
cred to hear the lay preacher, and many
were led to better course of life. His
success is largely due to the common
sense method Of his work. If men and
women are hungry, he feeds them; if
they are homeless, he gives them
shelter; if destitute of comfortable
clothes, he supplies their needs as far as
possible; and if out of work, he finds
places for them. At the same time he
seeks to reform their lives, and having
first made them comfortable in body, he
finds them more willing to listen to his
exhortations.
In his efforts to reclaim the drunkard
he soon found that something more was
necessary than the mere advice to him
not to drink. If he must not take
whisky, he must have something else,
and Doctor Kennion gives him good
warm coffee and nice fresh bread. These
are borne on cart made expressly fol
the purpose, and are served out to al
that come. The cups are not the com
mon tin vessels, but nice porcelain-ware
and the poor creatures are delighted tC
drink from them. Doctor Kennioni
scheme is good one, and deserves to b,
copied extensively in all the large cities
A cup of hot coffee and piece of gooC
bread given on q cold day to some poo
wretch might prevent murder or sui
eide, and in many q case would go fa
toward redeeming fallen man.-Ha'

Energy Developed During Rains.

Professor TAFT, of Edinburg, thus
illustrates the gigantic scale upon which
nature performs some of the most ordi-
nary of her operations: Suppose mere
tenth of an inch of rain to fall from the
lowest mile of the atmosphere. An inch
of rain is five pounds of water to the
square foot, and gives out, on being con-
densed from vapor, approximately, 5000
units of heat, on the centigrade scale.
The mass of the mile high column of
air, square foot in section, is about
800 pounds, and its specific heat about
a quarter that of water. Thus, its tenn
perature throughout would be raised by
about thirty three degrees centigrade, or
sixty degrees Fahrenheit. For one-tenth
of an inch of rain, therefore, we should
have rise of temperature of the lowest
mile of the atmosphere amounting to 3.3
degrees centigrade-quite enough to
produce a very powerful ascending cur
rent. AS the air ascends and expands it
cools, and more vapor is precipitated, so
| that the ascending current is further
accelerated. The heat developed over
one square foot of the earth's surface
under these conditions is equivalent to
work at the rate of horse power for
twelve minutes. Over square mile
this would be 100000 horse power
for half an hour. A fall of one-tenth of
an inch of rain over the whole of Great
Britain gives heat equivalent to the
work of million millions of horses for
half an hour! Numbers like these are
altogether beyond our comprehension.
They enable us, however, to see the full
explanation of the energy of the most
violent hurricanes in the simplest physi-
cal concomitants of the mere conden-
sation of aqueous vapor.-Scientlfc

HOLIDAYS of the Heart.

This happy phrase, which Longfel-
low, best-beloved of poets, invented as
title to one of his sweetest songs,
ought to have a personal meaning to
every one whose life is not wholly in
the present. For the average life is not
so rich in what the forerunner of the
old Puritans called "crowning mercies,"
that we can afford to make all days that
are past alike common, and think no
more of them than of the sunshine or
showers, the leaves or the fruit of dead
year. There is, or ought to be, some
days of days." that shed sunlight upon
our path, gave termination to our no
bier purposes, or brought fruition to our
hopes, which should stand to us as the
saints days to the church, or the holi-
day festivals to the world.
In this way the just complaint that
as people we do not have enough holi-
days could be adequately met. The
mere stopping of all the ordinary avoca-
tions of the people, and wandering aim
lessly free, without any underlying or
animating sentiment, may or may not
conduce to the general happiness.
Much of the vacuity or restlessness OBJ
servable upon such occasions. and which
have been said to make an American
holiday a most melancholy occasion, are
doubtless due to this lack of personal
interest. 1t is hard to crowd happiness
upon people in the mass. They must
carry the happy heart into our festivities
or they cannot hope to find it there.
But though legal warrant for pleas
ure may fail, a natural expression of the
emotion can hardly do so. The we'd
ding anniversary of a couple who are
mated as well as married, will nevel
pass unremembered, even though the
observance be no more than a tenderel
thought and dearer word than usual
bunch of flowers by the plate, or httlt
token of remembrance. The vulgarit,
of gift-soliciting upon such anniversarie
-" benefit-nights for married beggars,
as they were aptly called-is happil,
less in vogue than formerly; but as
holiday for the heart and the home
observed by a days pleasuring, specia
dinner, an evenings entertainment, ant
a real reminiscence of the happy tim
when the two paths merged into one
the wedding anniversary is more an,
more priced.
A Thanksgiving day fraught wit
memories that make it sacred, needs n
official sanction to hallow it. Dedi
Gated to public gratitude and praise,
is, through the joyous associations {
home, no less holiday Of the heart

In recent number of the Pari
Ctoyea appeared the following account,
by " An Eye Witness" of a curious epi-
sode in the terrible tragedy of the Com
mune: 1t was on the twenty-sixth of
May, 1871. The Tuilerics, the Palace
OF Justice and the Hotel de Vile were
wrapped in flames. At Montmartre and
in the Batignolles mitraiHeuses were
dealing death and destruction. Almost
beside myself with excitement and hor-
ror, / had contrived to reach the
Champs Elysees. Thence hurried on
ward, along the right bank of the Seine.
Suddenly so strange a sight offered it
self to my gaze that, for a moment, ]
deemed myself dreaming. Some sixty
odd people were sitting TRANQUILITY by
the river side, calmly angling Several
cart loads of damaged bacon had beer
shot into the Seine at that particular
spot, and shoals of fish had gathered
round it, offering an easy prey to the
anglers skill,

BALTIMORE, Jan. 3.-At noon to-day the fire
steamers are still throwing streams of water on
the cotton slowed in the warehouse of Thurston,
Harris Co., on Buchanan'S Wharf which took
fire last night. little over 5000 bales of cotton
were in the warehouse, of which John Merry
man & Co., dealers in fertilizers, owned 1900
bales, which were fully insured in the following
offices: Hartford Conn, 81, 900; Home, N. Y,
$4,000; Lortllard, N. Y, 81 5,OO0 North British
$40 00e; Laloufiance, "France," 5,eON; total,
H.5 900. 1t is estimated that the loss on cotton
will be fully go per cent. The warehouse be-
longed to the Lennon heirs, which will be an
almost total loss, was insured in the Queen of
Liverpool for $4,000. Randolph jerks Phil
adelph1a firm, cotton brokers, had about eleven
hundred bales stored in the warehouse, said to
be fully insured, as follows: North American.
Of PHI .delphia, 5000; Guardian, Of London,

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-Mr. Parnell and Mr. Dill
lon received delegation from Boston to-day at
the Fifth Avenue hotel. They also received
men OF county Meath, who presented them with
an address.
MR.. FARSELL BRIEFLY REPLIED,
thanking those present for their kindness and
consideration in welcoming him and his COM
panfon to this country. Since his friends had
alluded to the history OF Meath he would allude
for moment to more recent affairs there.
Though the richest county In Ireland, her resi-
dents had nevertheless been brought to point
OF great suffering. In regard to the land sys-
tenn OF Ireland and America he pointed out the
fact that the system here was entirely different
from that at home. In Ireland monopolists had
adopted a system OF rents, while here railway
corporation systems OF sales was in vogue. but
he would not undertake TO point out the expe-
dlency at present, or right or wrong OF large
grants being made to railway corporations.
After dwelling little time In consideration OF
the sunerings OF the Irish people, Mr.. Parnell
said that he was proud to represent County
Meath, and would do all In his power to retain
the coincidence OF the people, which he fiattered
himself he now possessed. He again thanked
his friends for their kindness

The Will of Washington's Secretary
Of War.

WHY COPY OF IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO
THIS CITY.
In the Probate Court yesterday exemplided
copies Of the wills Of James McHenry. and his
grandson, James McHenry Boyd were filed for
record. In order to perfect title to some prop.
erty in the District now owned 10 the family of
ex-Secretary OF War Belknap. James McHenry
was born in Maryland In 1885. and served In the
Revolutionary war as an aid-de-camp on the
represented Maryland in the Continental Con-
gress and In the convention which framed the
Constitution of the United States, and during
the administration OF Washington he was made
secretary OF War, and served some months un-
der him In that position, and for short time
under President John Adams; being dismissed
the executive he being one of the first Ameri-
cans dismissed from public Office because OF
his political opinions.
Fort McHenry, near Baltimore, was named after
him and he died in that city In the latter part of
1915, leaving will, in which certain bequests
were made to his grandson, James McHenry
Secretary of War McHenry, in 1899, became the
owner Of lots 3 10, IL II and 1s, square 2ls, tbe
tween 14th, 10th and and streets northwest)
grandson, McHenry Boyd, who succeeded to this
property. The latter. before his marriage, had
made will bequeathing the bulk Of his eastate
county, Nd, whom be subsequently married.
While on their wedding tour In New York
MI. BOYD was killed by the accidental discharge
Of a pistol In his trunk, which he was arranging.
After his death Mrs Boyd married Lieutenant
lnOw GeneraD j. G. Barnard, United States army.
In the meantime the property here was sold for
taxes, and was held by various parties, but in
1859 the McHenry's entered suit OF ejectment,
and recovered, In our Circuit Court. Some Of the
property then fell into the hands OF Mrs Bower.
OF Kentucky, who Is now Mrs. Belknap, wife OF
the ex-secretary OF War. Thus, It viii be seen,
the title to this property was in the first ex-
secretary OF War originally, and after being held
by inherent parties Tor three-f0urthS OF centu-
