THE ORGAN IN The CHURCH.

The Scottish Presbyterians have had
their organ question MS well as those in
America. 1t has been mentioned before
IN these. columns that q lively discussion
was likely to take place in the assembly
OF the Free Church of Scotland on the
question OF allowing instrumental music
III the service of the sanctuary. To
many it does seem strange that such a
question should occasion discussion and
divided sentiment in this late age of the
world. In some of our American church.
es, however, the sound of an organ or
OF any instrument in the church service
would be regarded as a grievous wrong
AN insult to the Deity. The Free
Church of Scotland is by no means
backward church. But it is tenacious
OF historical forms. The discussion, as
had been expected, was protracted and
keen, occupying an entire day-from
ten till five in the afternoon and from
seven till ten in the evening. The young
er sprouts of the assembly were all in
favor of the organ. But the Highland
clergy aud the men from the rural dis
tricts generally were opposed and voted
for delay. DR.. Rainey's motion that the
congregations had a right to make use
OF instrumental music and that they
were at Liberty to exercise that right
was carried by vote of 800 against and
$50 for delay. The debate was conduct
ed in the presence of 2, 900 people.

PALACE OF THE PopEs AT Av1aNoN,

The French committee for the preser-
vation of historical monuments has at
length succeeded in making arrange
ments by which the palace of the popes
in this interesting old city will shortly
cease to be used as barracks for the
garrison. This act of vandalism dates
from the first year of the reign of Louis
xVlII., and since that time much ire
parable damage has been done to the
frescoes, while many of the rooms have
been disfgured by whitewash. Party
walls have been knocked down in some
places and wooden partitions run up in
another, and despite all that has been
done the palace has not, as may read
lily be imagined, been at all comfortable
as military quarters. Remonstrances
against the barbarous use to which this
historical building was being put have
been made from time to time for the last
5O years, and just before the fall of the
empire it seemed as if the scandal would
shortly cease, for some new barracks
were built for the garrison close to the
station. But just as they were ready
for occupation the war with Germany
broke out, and after it was over the
French pontoon corps, whose headquar-
tiers were formerly at Strassburg, was
sent to Avignon to do their exercises
upon the Rhone, now that the Rhine
was no longer available. So the ordin-
ary garrison perforce remained in the
papal palace.

"An Apache, in full war paint, stalked
into an Indian school at Albuquerque
N. NJ, one day. The children were I'M
mediately terrified, and trembllngly
told us he was bad Indian. They
said an uncle of one of our boys had
killed his brother, and they feared he
bnd come for revenge. As 1t was near
dinner time I saw nothing better to
10 than to have the children marched
into the dining.room, rs usual. we
keep open house to Indians at all times,
and treat them as distinguished guests.
sY motioned to our Apache to take a
seat at the table. He looked terrible in
his war paint, and laid two loaded re-
revolyers on the table before him. Ihe
children began to tremble. lsuinmoned
all my courage and said: Put those re-
volvers on the window.
"The Apache never moved. The cook
placed before him a cnp of coffee and
bowl of soup. take away that coffee
and soup,' l commanded, with my heart
in nv mouth, adding to the Indian;
.You shall not have them until yout put
those revolvers on the window. Trem-
bling for her life, the cook obeyed.
When the Apache saw his dinner re-
moved ne deliberately arose, picked up
his terrible revolvers and-shall l ever
forget that terrible moment?-quietly
laid them on the window, His dinner
was restored to him; he ate in silence.
and then picked up his property and
walked out without word.

But this last time on my way home, as
/ was waiting in the train at Santa Fe,
my terrible Apache, in all his feathers
and war paint, got into the car and
walked its whole length, us if looking
for aone one. Ny blood run cold. He
stopped beside me, gave a grunt Of
satisfaction, and broke into smiles.
Then nothing would do but I must
vigorously shake hands. He then left
the car and returned with dozen other
braves as horrible as himself He in
troduced them all, and all must shake
hands,

Jews as chess.Plaxers


The result of the chess tournament
was a veritable triumph for Jewish
chess-players. Out of the fourteen en-
gagged in the chief or s,naster" tourna-
ment, no less than six were Jews. And
in the prize lists, the first prize was
taken by aJew, Zukertort, and the Sec
ond prize was likewise adjudged to an
other Jew, Steinitz, hitherto the prince
OF chess players. Besides these, another
jew, Englisch, secured the fifth prize,
and fourth, Rosenthai, obtained the
prize allotted to the competitor who
made the ybest score against the prize
winners. Out OF tho eight prizes given
no less than one-half were won by
Jews. If there had been only one Of
our race engaged in the contest it
might have been easy to suppose that
his appearance was lusus .naturn. But
the very great number who take rank
among the highest players, and the sue
cess of Zukertort and Steinitz, clearly
indicate that there must be something
in the Jewish intellect peculiarly adapt,
ed to the game. The mathematical
bent of mind, the patience, persever.
ance, and daring, and the peculiar
quality known as long -headedness, are
all properties of the Jewish nature,
which are equally valuable for business
and for chess. From the times of Tai
mud, Jews have peen pre-eminent at
games similar to chess, and in modern
times Jews have counted several of the
best players for several generations.
The tale of the Jew who became pope,
'charmingly translated from the Mid
rash for the Society of Hebrew Litera
3ture by amester of English, contains a
reference to Jewish skill in chess. And
yet Mendelssohn said: "For n game it
is too serious; for study, it is too much
like play"

The Mystery of Music.
tFrom the Laramie Boolnerang.l

What is there in brass band or the
sound Of any of its instruments that
should stir the blood of every man, wo.
man and child who is not q mummy !?
Perhaps, indeed, the mummies start too,
who knows? The music may be afro
cious, the like of which ground from a
hand organ wonld drive to madness.
But with the first roll of the drum or
sound OF the bugle every window within
earsbot is raised and heads thrust in
quiringly and expectantly forth. A band
may come and play beneath our window
the tunes which, above all others, we
detest, but being by the band we listen
complacently through the last note.
Men who followed drum into battle and
rallied to its beat in old days may ex-
plain their fondn9hs for the electric
sound now; but other men, who saved
their country at long range by means of
are eql lly moved. It is
easy to understand why the giddy girl
smiles when the country band perpetu-
ates a waltz, but why should her Quaker
grandmother waken from her nap and
beat time with her rheumatic feet. Men
join secret societies and pay out much
of their substance in dues for no pur-
pose that the uninitiated can see than to
have brass bauds at their funerals. The
fascination cannot be explained by a
general love for music. There is not al
ways music in the air "when the band
begins to play" and the man with no
music in his soul listens intently to its
strains. The same man despisesa piano,
is unmOved by the violin. and avoids the
opera as pestilence. 1t is all an une1-
planned mystery. Surely Gabriel is wise
indeed to arm himself with a trump. A
gong, or even n church bell, would never
awake the half of us.

The Waif Of the BsttIef1eId.
tFrom the Wheeling Intolligencer. ]

81
To-day l met lady whose talents as
q musician and whose remarkable beauty
had attracted my attention. She possess
sed that rare type of prettiness that is
wholly southern-great deep blue eyes,
the face perfect in every feature, hair
rich in abundance and wonderful in it's
tint. This is her story: Twenty years
ago, when the tide of battle swept over
the terrible field of Manassas, q baby
girl was left an orphan on the battle
ground. During the changes Of the
fateful day the home OF the little blue
eyed girl was directly between the fires
of both armies. As the first shots whist
eled above the house the parents started
to flee for place OF refuge.
A dozen yards from the door both
were shot down, and the baby, an or
pLan, without sister or brother, was
alone in the world. The battle ragged
on, the deadaud dying were everywhere,
but the baby was unframed. The day
wore away, and just as the suns last
rays, half hidden in the curling smoke,
kissed the earth good night, Gen. Jubal
Early, hiding by, heard the baby's cries,
He dismounted, and, taking the little
waif up, cared for it until he could place
it under the care of his sisters. They,
watched it through.its infantile years /
giving it an education and world OF
love, and now that baby, grown to wom-
anhood, lovely and accomplished, the
pet of wide circle of friends, who call
her "Waif," is the sole support of these
two women, sisters of the rebel general.
If l should write her name it would not
be a strange one here, for all the city,
knows Miss Ida Henry. s}3 tiItfr'.

PoLK,s SENTENCE.

Polk has received speedy justice. His
trial was begun on June 26th, but it was
not until July 14th that jury could
be obtained. In six days the evidence
WAS all taken, and in another five DAYS n
verdict was obtained, ,he jury remaining
out but one night. The maximum pun
ishment the law allows-imprisonment
for twenty years-and fine equal to the
amount embezzled (three hundred and
sixty-six thousand doIlars) have been
imposed. His attorneys have appealed,
and may gain him new hearing; but
this cannot alter the verdict of public
opinion. The result obtained in the
face Of most gloomy predictions, will do
much to restore the confidence in tie
trial OF such causes by jury, which the
verdict in the star route trial did SO
much to shake.

A Rainy Day in Mexico.

..f trroIn tne Two ltepuCncs.1 20.
The rain fell heavily about 2 O'Clock
on Tuesday and the streets were soon
flooded. The cargadores promptly
turned the situation to account. They
stood at the crossings where the water
was deepest and carried people across
the street for real and seemed to think
that the streets were just in the right
condition for business. The flooded
streets developed new kind of strategy,
People who hadto reach certain street
puzzled their wits to tell where the
water was shaIlowest. Those who knew
the street gradings of old went ahead
with confidence, but some newcomers
were forced to make soundings ut differ
ent points before they could find safe
crossing. In such journeys it was often
found that the longest way round was
the shortest way home. In some court.
yards the food was fully foot deep
and people were forced to stay in the
upper stories. Toward evening, how
ever, the floods subsided, the streets be-
came passable again, the cargadores re-
tired and every one was pleased that the
torrent had been no worse.

The sculling race near Syracuse. N

HE sculling race near Syracuse, N.

very little betting. The start was
evenly made, Hosmer pulling 36
and Lee and Hanlan 81 strokes.
The race was merely repetition of pre-
vious contests, and after turning the
stake, Hanlan stopped rowing, taking a
drink of water from his hsnd. HanIan
turned the stake in IA minutes so Sec
onds, Lee 10 seconds later and Hosmer
2 seconds behind him. A fine contest
was witnessed on the last turn, and the
three oarsmen were abreast, when the
Canadian, with squirt, opened his lead
by few lengths, winning in 10 minutes
45 seconds, Hosmer second in 19 minutes
90 seconds and Lee third in 10 minutes
81 seconds. After the race, the trio

cARELEssNEss.

The disaster in Baltimore, by which
more than sixty persons lost their lives,
Is another of those too frequent events
which cannot be accurately called acci-
dents. A wharf commonly used for pas
senger aud pleasure traffic falls under
the weight OF a crowd of people landing
from an excursion barge. In the con.
fusion and bewilderment that follow no.
body is certain whether the wharf was
Jared by the impact of the barge on
coming alongside or whether the mere
accumulation Of persons on the structure
caused its collapse. This point is not a
vital ono in the case. The wharf was
not tit for the uses to which it was put.
Even casual inspection might have set
tied that. But, after multitudes OF
people had passed over the rickety con-
trlvance, it fell, carrying down to death
large number OF young women and
children. Nobody will ever be held re-
eponsible for this tragical business. The
disaster was inevitable because the
wharf-owners were careless and indif.
ferent.
