THE CONSCIENCE.

Charles f. Coffin and Wife Address the
Friends at Yesterday Mornings Service.
Charles F. Coffin, Of Richmond, Ind, and his
wife, Rhoda Coffin, who have acquired more
than a national reputation for their efforts in
prison reform, spoke yesterday morning at the
Friends Westinghouse, corner Delaware and
st. Clair streets. Mr.. Coffin spoke upon con-
science. which he defined as the secret judg-
Inent of the soul. He disbel eyed in the doctrine
of total depravity, aud yet held that conscience
was largely the eff-ct of education, so much SO
that no one can ever wholly get away from the
effects of early Christian teaching. and that it is
as though conscience may become detiled be-
cause our tendency is toward evil. He held that
IL is the work of the Holy Spirit in the soul to
cleanse aud purify the conscience, ana that the
first step is a thorough belief in Christ as the
Savior, and an absolute acceptance Of Him and
the acceptance of the teachings of the Holy
scriptures. Mrs. Coffin smoke briefly, her re-
marks being supplemental 10 the sermon. Last
evening Prof. David Dennis addressed the sncle-
ty. The attendance yesterday was smaller than
usual. OWING to the large number who went
from here TO attend the yearly meeting at Plaiu-

What Sailors in the NAVY Eat,

There is not much change in the bill of
fare Of a sailor on board ship. What he
shall eat and what he shall drink is a
matter of official regulation, and it is
most strictly adhered to. On Sunday he
is given the following: Fourteen ounces
Of buiscuit, three-quarters of a pound of
preserved meat, half a pound of rice,
four nee of sugar, either half an
ounce of tea or two ounces Of coffee, two
ounces Of butter and six ounces of toma-
toes. On Monday he receives the same
quantity Of bread and n pound of salt
pork, the same quantity of tea and sugar
and a half pint of beans. On Tuesday
he is served with one pound of salt beef,
half a pound of -four and two ounces of
%evaporated apples. On Wednesday he
gets n pound Of pork again, half a pint
Of beans with four ounces of pickles.
The bill of fare on Thursday is the same
as Wednesday with the addition of half a
pint Of molasses. . Friday is the same as
Tuesday, Saturday is a repetition of Mon
day, with the addition Of half a pint of
vinegar.
Not only do the men care little for the
preserved beef, but they also have no
particular fondness for rice. Very fire.
quently when the rations are served the
men do not take rice, and they even fire.
quently omit to take -four. They are
always fond, however, of their salt pork
and beans, and it is asserted when they
are in port, with the opportunity of get
ting fresh meat and vegetables, they will
ask that their favorite dish be continued.
A sailor will, however, frequently in
crease the variety of his food and add
several luxuries to his bill of fare by a
very ingenious arrangement. The law
provides that if a man does not use ra-
lions which are assigned to him, that he
shall receive thirty cents a day in lieu
thereof. The rations are more bountiful
than a single man can eat and it is usu-
ally the custom for one man in every five
to commute his rations and take the
money value in place of it. There are
twenty men in a mess, one of whom is
the mess cook. For his services in pre-
pairing the meal he commutes his r%ations,
and is fed by the rest of the men out Of
their allowance and keeps the thirty cents
for his own private use. Three others Of
the twenty, however, also commute their
rations and are fed out Of the allowances
of the remaining number Of their mess.
The thirty cents which they each receive
is turned into a general mess fund, which
increases at the rate of ninety cents a
day. When the men are in port one of
their number is empowered to spend this
money in procuring fruits and other lux
uries. In no other naval service can an
arrangement like this be carried out. The
rations served in the French and English
navies is entirely too meagre to allow a
sailor to be fed from the superabundance
of his messmates' allowance. In some of
the foreign navies, also, Communication is
not allowed, and a sailor has to take what
is given him whether he can eat it or
not Washington Post.

Artificial Coffee.

At the present low price of coffee IL
would hardly seem the best time to bring
out a new substitute, but a M. Sornani,
Of Pavia, in the Inn. & Chin. appk
Farm. ct Med, announces that he has
discovered quite a new and serious adul-
t%eration of coffee, which is being prac-
ticed by the manufacture of artificial
berries. These berries are composed of
the meal of beans and acorns, with chic
DRY and some quartz powder to bring the
mixture to the requisite specific gravity.
A dough is made of these Ingredients,
which is cut by a special machine into
the shape of coffee berries, and after dry
ing has exactly their color. Sornani says
he has found as much as fifty per cent Of
these artificial berries mixed with the
genuine. On roasting they take just the
same color as the genuine, but they are
discovered by soaking in water when the
false berries soon fall to pieces.-Scien-

Music on the Wires.

The central telephone Office called up
the Daily Mews editorial" last night
with this inquiry: "Hello; have you
"Nothing but a Tyre" answered the
funny man, who continued, and that is
out of tune-why"
The inquiry Of the central, which at
first was supposed to be in the nature of a
pleasantly, was asked in seriousness.
The reply came back from the central:
swell, somebody has been playing on
the wires ever since eight O'clock this
evening, and We can't tell where it comes
FROM"
The telephone in the Daily Mews
''editorial" rang again.
"Hello," came from che night man at
the central police station. "What's the
matter down there"
"Nothing. What's the matter with
your
"Were you singing, OF playing an in
strument lust awhile ago."
"No."
The central station man then repeated
what the central telephone station had
asked. adding that all night long the
telephones had been vibrating with the
sweetest Of melodies, and that no one
could tell from whence it came. Just
then the Cottage Grove avenue police
station called up the central station:
"Hello; who's that singin' up thir?' The
answer was sent back that there had
been no singing. "Who's that playin'w
Nobody had been playing. cts bin a
singin' all night to us, the swaitest yez
liver heerd."
At a late hourthe Office at Elgin, forty
two miles distant, called to the central
office: "Hello, central, hello. This is
Elgin. Where is the music thathas been
going on Ill night"
"Don't know"
cit has been heard here all night; ever
since eight o'clock. Several private
telephones here have heard the same
thing. Hello--did you bear that?"
"What?"
"Did you hear that-Home, Sweet
Homer"
A call was made at the central office
at a later hour, and the information was
repeated that the wires had been singing
ali night long. It was first heard on the
stock-yards line. and the superstition
was that it had emanated from the Office
there, bat the s%tock-yards Office knew
nothing Of it save that it had been
flooded with melody all night long, while
at the central Office it was learned that
the entire circuits had been ringing, sing
ing and vibrating with music; soft and
low the cadences of the "Suwanee
River had come; then, as they died
awav- there came the uuickstep OF
