DEACoNs WHO "RUN" THE CHURCH.

An ex-deacon of certain West Side
church, learned man, an able man too,
is possessed with what may be called the
DIAGONAL ambition-an ambition usually
confined to the owners of country gro
ceries, whose trade is increased by the
honor After having been deacon for
a series of years, during which time he
cram the church, he was suddenly GUS
ted at late election, and is now report
ed to be plotting to drive the pastor out
of the church. ''Either he or will leave
within six months, he has said in effect
to his followers. The pastor, though
able and popular, is not discreet man.
He is apt to take. This astute deacon,
knowing this, is laying all sorts of traps
for his minister with the intention of
notifying him by exhibiting his catch
at some future meeting of the church,
thereby compelling him to resign. If
this ex-deacon cannot rule the church
he intends to break it up, and will very
likely succeed. There was a certain
parsonage who, according to John Mil
ton, had such design regarding heaven.
There are great many men with this
SMALL ambition in the churches. One
gentleman with this tendency who had
broken up every church that he had ever
belonged to, joined a hitherto harmoni-
Gus church and commenced his machina-
ton. This church was blessed with
genial and witty deacon who rose one
night at prayer meeting at which his
plotting brother D was present and
commenced to lead in prayer.
ooh, Lord, We pray that brother D
may die" he said and the good broth
ers and sisters opened their eyes wide
with surprise. 80, Lord, we pray that
brother D-may die and go to hell, ,"
he continued Shocked beyond mea-
sure the pastor raised his head and was
about to rebuke the deacon when he
finished his petion with the words: "For
we know that if he goes to hell he will
break up that whole institution in less
than year
That church was not broken up.

st. Julien.

A correspondent Of the Times
who signs himself "Mambrino,u
writes as follows:
| OF late 1 have noticed several ar.
ticles referring to st. Julien as q
faint.hearted horse, lacking in
"dead game" staying qualities. In
the exhibitions against time, last
season between Maud 8. and St.
Julien, 1 am candid to admit that
Maud s. seemed to finish the
stronger and less fatigued of the
two; but am astonished that any
good horseman can for a moment
believe st. Julien to be other than
Ia game horse who witnessed his
performance at Springfield, Mass,
last September. Here I found q
heavy sandy track, cupping and
yielding at every stride, q track to
test the courage and temper of the
most resoYute and courageous horse
living. What of all the horses as
sembled at Hsmden Park did the
track suit? Was 1t Monroe Chief
l2:lSH? His fastest mile here was
2.2l. Was 1t Hannis (2:l7D? His
fastest mile was 2:194; one trotting
on the 18th, the other on the 18th,
when the track was at its best. On
the 18th, track heavy, 1 find Pana-

consider this, under the condi-
lions, the greatest feat ever per-
formed by any trotting horse in
America up to that time, il not
since, for it was a track that tried
courage, both mental and physical.
st. Julien finished here even
stronger than over the best track at
Hartford. The fastest heat the
speedy Wedgewood could make
over his track at Springfield was
2:344. Recognize facts, gentlemen,

don't, as the boys say, "be too pre-
vious" In backing your judgment
too literally. Allusion has been
made to the higher quality of the
dam OF Maud s. In blood lines.
Quite true. After witnessing the
Two mile performance of Unolala-l
a young mares first season upon
the turf-I am not so sure that
Maud has much the advantage of
dams. Should Unolala come out |
and trot two miles in about 4:44 |
this season. and 1 expect to see her,
and st. Julien in about 4:34, l
think the dam would be construed

miles will be. before October
