A Sisters Shout Saves the Meeting.

The Rev. E. Wentworth, writing in
In 1851 or 1852 quite revival occurred
in Carlisle, Pa, in which the students of
Dickinson College and the people of the
town alike participated. Meetings were
held nightly in the Methodist Church
N the village, and the professors of the
college took turns with the preacher in
charge in supplying the pulpit evening
after evening.
One night it came the turn Of Prof.
Johnson to preach, and he gave one OF
the most closely-argued sermons on the
subject of Repentance to which I
ever listened. It was clear as crystal,
but cold as an iceberg, and feHs upon
unheeding ears. Students were sleepy
and villagers restless. A stirring irvlt-
alton with the true revival ring was
needed, not a Butlerian dissertation.
Everybody knew what repentance was,
and only needed warm urging to engage
in the duty at once. Previous meetings
had been stirring, but this evening eve
rything seemed dead and cold and life
less. [ then gave the meeting up for
lost.
Ali at once, as the professor was on
the last sixty minutes of his characters
tically acute but dry argument, pierre
ing shrek arose from the third pew Of
the middle tier to the right of the speak
er. A good sister, Miss Gray, had 81
lently filed up and at length flowed over
in q ringing old-style Methodist shout OF
"Glory !" Hallelujah !" "Bless the
Lord!" which set everybody in the
house on the qui vive in an instant and
dumbfounded the speaker. He tried to
stop her.
"Not now, Sister," said he, "not
tonight, if you please; by and by, when
we get up yonder, we will shout, but to-
night it is our business to convince these
sinners of their duty to repent"
But the more he talked the louder she
shouted. She made the house ring
again, and kept it up. Preaching fol
that night was out Of the question, and
further pulpit talk was impossible.
President Peck sat on one side of the
communion table and I at the other,
within the altar rail. I said to him
"Sing and invite mourners forward y
He did so in a few burning words, and
the altar was speedily crowded. Sister
Gray's shout had saved the meeting
but the special joke of the occasion was
that the good sister was as deaf as al
adder.

The Umbrella.

As to the origin of the word umbrella.
The English name is borrowed from the
italian Umbrella. The Latin tenn U m
bella is applied by botanists to those
blossoms which are clustered at the ex-
tremities of several spokes, radiating
from common stem like the metallic
props of the umbrella. The term, as is
seen, does not give the slightest idea OF
the use of the article SO designated, and
we might we'll take lesson from our
cousins. German or French. who have
invented distinct names for that used to

The lips are chilly
And will not speak

Forever hid.

Thomas Cox and John Kelly, two young
boys. were charged with the larceny Of
certain household effects stored In the barn
Hof @. n. Wilcox on Twentieth street and
Sixth avenue The former was arrested
yesterday and placed in the police station,
while Kelly agreed to appear before JUS
tice Chopper this morning and answer the
charge that had been preferred
against him. He was on hand at the APP
pointed hour, but young Cox was not to
be found. Il was ascertained that be had
been locked up in the station with Martin
during the morning, but when the latter
was taken to the Jail he disappeared.
1t is supposed that he made his escape
through the small aperture in the prison
door, as the opening was sufficient to
allow the body of small boy to pass
through if help had been given him on the
inside His escape is therefore explained
by the supposition that Martin unable to
effect his own delivery, performed similar
office for the young boy that he found
locked up with him.

AMUsEMENTs.

at Harper's theatre to limited audience
The audience, however, made up in enthu-
siasm what it lacked in numbers, and Mr.
| Warde, Aveling and other members of the
cast were frequently applauded and called
before the curtain.
The Damon of Mr.. Warde was a strong
character, although disposition to rant
slightly marred the otherwise carefully
studied representation. His best piece of
acting was in the scene, when exhausted,

of his friend Pgtafas This was the me st
naturally interpreted. and deserved the APP
plause which it received.
Henry Aveling, as Pythias, sustained the
character in manner which caused him
to share the honors with the star. His
voice and acting were very acceptable.

ed their respective parts well, and made
the most of the lines which were given
them. s.

SANITARY NOTES.


Andrew Anderson, the man who was
afflicted with SMALL ox in the eastern por-
ton of the city, is now fully recovered
from that disease, and will be allowed to
leave his residence within few days, after
all danger from exposure shall have passed.
This is the only case of that malady which
has appeared in this city, and credit
is due all parties concerned for the dill
gence and care observed in limiting the
disease to the one case.
The furniture purchased for the pest
house located in South Rock Island, has
been removed from that establishment, and
stored at the City Hall. 1t has never been
in use, and the prospects are that the pest
house will be abandoned at an early date.
