The following lesson on church
lotteries, is from The Tribune and
Farmer:
As-t the heavy prison bolts turned
on the minister, he looked sadly on
the prisoners in their strange gar
ments, and thought with more and
more anxiety Of his erran1. He had
come to see young man of his con-
gregation convicted for forgery. The
heartbroke en pa, en- had begged him
to visit the prison, hoping the peace
food might reach even his gloomy
cell. As the minister kindly greeted
him, the youth scarcely replied, but
gazed with a sort of defiance. lie
began giving the mothers tender
message, with the interest all the
church felt in bis farewell. At last
the prisoner broke out, ''Do you know
vcu was what done it?" "What have

to understand his strange language.

youth, speaking very loud, "ln yonr

Notes on the Fashion.

Arabesques of satouche are the leading
jackets and wrap garnitures.
Fancy feathers of every description are the
rage for millinery use.
Telegraph, hussar, electric and royal are
four very popular shades of blue.
Royal cardinal jackets are very fashion
ably worn over black skirts of silk, satin Or
clsemere.
Amazone cloths embroidered, or adorned
with arabesques or satouche, compose the
favorite tainlmings Of autumn promenade
costumes.
Shaggy goods of all kind in brown, fawn
color, dark green, dark blue, or in plads of
heather mixture are the most fashionable of
all utility fabrics
The coming of the 'Jersey Lilly" has
largely increased the sale of the jersey
bodice, whose popularity she long ago .inau-
.gurated in London.
For evening wear, tan colored Suede
shoes, trimmed with large satin bows and
buckles of Rhine pebbles set with silver,
| are considered very chic; but unless the feet
are very small. there are fears that this
adornment will cause them to assume the
appearance of s'beetIe crushers."
Dorsey redingotes are imported, made of
black Lyons velvet, and trimmed with mag
nifcient applique work of black embroidery
| from the throat to the bottom of the skirt
with costly cordelieres and handsome cut
| jet buttons in medallion design.
The huge bridal bouqet OF white roses is
now frequently replaced By a large fan
made of stephanotis. The fan depends from
the right side by gold or silves chatelaine,
but is raised and carried in the hand in
place of the boquet as the bride enters

CANT toilets Of brocaded plush in silver gray,
combining the fabric with the new Ottoman
silks in royal blue, park green and ruby.
These dresses are made short, with artistic
draperies of the Ottoman silk at the back,
the plush forming the transverse folds, con.
fined by clusters of loops of the silk fringed
with floss silk balls in shades of gray.
Among the jackets and coat-bodices of
masculine cut are those of cheviot made
with pointed fronts, large side pockets, and
fastened across the front with hbrandelbourgs,
Ia hussar. These jackets open over vest
of white or colored serge, and at the open
ing at the neck is set a tour de gore, or
tucker of linen with large Byron collar
above it, embroidered in each corner; un-
derneath this turn collar is set color
ed cravat exactly like those worn by gem
tlemen, and in the centre of it is set scarf
pin in the shape of a horseshoe or some 9TH
>er fancy device.

The parent who encourages the boy
or gin to look out for themselves, re-
gardless of others, may be shrewd
adviser, as :he world understands 1T,
but it does not pay to raise up ma
ton of selfish people. The lack OF
reverence for age on the part of our
young people these days is grow
ing evil. To see gray-headed grand
fathers and grand mothers tugglng
at strips standing in crowded cars,
while young rosy-cheeked misses
and stout-limbed young men remain
comfortably seated, is not an unusual
sight. The dear children may have
a right to the seats-no one disputes
that. But the father or mother who
trained them to assert these rights
sacrificed the incest and best traits of
character..in caring for the legs.-Chi-

Astonished Barber.

Quietly entering barber shop the strang-

his pocket w1ote on it:

a barber stepped forward, read the card
and pointing to the chair, said to his broth

The man Strengthened himself out in the
chair when his manipulation began lathering
his face.

lowed.

The victim remaining undisturbed the
following shots were fired at him by the
delighted tonsorial artists:

''Tell him his red hair needs clipping be-
fore it sets his topnot on fire"
'sShave him with stool leg, don't spoi

"Pull off his boots and air his soilet
hose"
s'Gracious what breath. 1t smells
like Dutch band of music"
'.He ought to rent that nose for loco
motive headlight
While all of these complimentary allu-
sions were flying about him, the operation
of shaving was finished, and he arose, p.'
on his coat, and turning to the astonishet

President read the charge, merely
accusing him of rebellion and refusal
to disband the army at the Khedive's
command. The prisoner pleaded
guilty, Mr.. Broadley handing in
written statement on his behalf. The
Court then adjourned till three
o'clock.
AT quarter to three we passed
through strong guard into the old
Daira Sanieh, and entered the court,
which was already full of privileged
persons, seated upon chairs arranged
in rows, like stalls at theatre. The
Judges of the tribunal occupied the
left side of the court room, whilst the
right was given over to the use OF
the press. Facing us were seven
green chairs, ranged upon dais, for
the accommodation of the commits
sion. Amongst the more notable
civilians were Sir Charles Wilson
and Mr.. Mark Napier, Arabi's junior
counsel.
AT five minutes past three the
Commissioners entered, and took
their seats in the seven green chairs.
Then, amidst profound silence, Arab
was brought in, saluted the COM
mission, and sat down. The Presl-
dent at once arose, and, after quoting
an article of the Military Code, pro
nounced sentence as follows: "The
prisoner having pleaded guilty to
charges punishAb by death, accord
ing to military law, the Commission
condemns him to suffer death. The
sentence having been referred to the
Khedive has been by his Highness
craciously commuted to lifelong ban
ishment.'
Arab bowed and expressed his
thanks for the Khedlve's merciful
consideration. The Court then
arose. Arab shook hands with his
counsel, and received banquet offer
ed by one of his admirers. 1t was a
very poor banquet. He was then
led out of court by two CT the new
eendarnles ON each side. Five min
utes did the whole business; and SO
ended the State trial. The Khedive
will tomorrow sign decree grant
ing full amnesty to all minor Offend
ers connected with the late rebellion
1t is reported that Arab will be sent
to British settlement very prob
ably Cey-on.
At Alexandria the public consider
the result Of Arabi's trial highly un-
satisfactory, ard are indignant tha
such a comedy should have been per
formed. 1t is the general opinion
that his case should have been thor
oughly tried, if only for the purpos'
of eliciting full disclosures respecting
the originators of the rebellion.

respecting the trial of Arabi which
was considered probable late last
night has been carried out this morn

conducted under guard from his
room to that occupied by the Com

civil and military, were present, be-

But little excitement was displayed
by the public, circumstance which
may be attributed to the secrecy
maintained concerning the time fixed

ing required to carry the line down to the
valley of the Jordan, here 500 feet below the
level Of the sea, which 1t then followed north
as far as the Djisr el Medjamieh. Near this
ancient Roman bridge of three arches, which
is used to this day by the caravans of camels
which bring the produce of the Hauran TO
the coast, the new railway bridge will cross
the Jordan, probably the only one in TIE
world which will have for its neighbor an act
ual bridge in use which was built by the Ro.
mans. After crossing the Jordan the line
will still follow the banks Of that river to the
junction with the Yarmuk which it will also
cross, and then traverse fertile plain OF rich
alluvium, about ave miles long by four wide,
to the banks of the ridge which overlooks
the eastern margin of the Sea of Tiberias.
This is the extent to which the survey has
been completed. 1t is not decided whether
to rise from the valley by the shoulder of the
ridge which overlooks the Yarmuk, or to fol-
low the east shore of the Lake OF Tiberias
to the Wady Semakh, which offers great ad.
vantages for grade by which to ascend near
ly 1000 feet in about 10 miles. This is the
toughest bit of engineering on the line, and

the transport of grain alone from this region
to the coast will suffice to pay a large divi-

struction of the road which will be about 1870
miles in length. The grantees have also Sc

of some sparkling little improvisations, as
interludes to the conversation. As l looked
