Mr.. Reccher Denounced from the Pull


The Rev. Arthur Pierson, pastor Of the
Second Presbyterian church Of Jndianapo-
lis, of which church Henry Ward Beecher
was the pastor many years ago, created
something OF q sensation Sunday by refer
ring 10 Mr. Beccher's lecture in that city.
He lamented the fact that Christ's people
were carried away by the slosh OF the
learned eentleman's dissertations, and add
ed 81 felt ashamed to have such grand
doctrines as tile inspiration of the Holy
Scriptures and such awful truths rs the final
punishment Of the ungodly trayestied and
held up to ridicule, and | felt especially
Inundated that should be the successor Of
that man as pastor OF the Second Presbyte-
rian church." Here the audience broke
out in understandable applause. showing
that Mr. Beecher's tenets have not the I'M
qualified approval OF his old indianapolis
friends. DR.. Pierson aiterward privately
reisserted bis strong opinions, and was
warmly congratulated by many Of the pro-
minent ministers for his bold stand.

Engineer James Church runs between
Chicago and Louisville. Like other faith
full veterans Of the throttle, he is known as
"Old Reliable" When Clurch's midnight
express, bound north, reaches point near
cambridge, it must switch off TO make
room for south-bound lightning train.
On Sunday night Of last week all went well
with Church until he WAS within about 2
mile of the switch. Then, while running
at the speed of thirty-iiyc miles an hour,
the sidc-bar Of the driying-wheels snapped
in two, leaving stumps on each wheel
The middle portion Of the bar was thrown
against the cab, wrecking it, killing the
fireman, Amos Thorpe, and throwing the
engineer back on the coal III the tender. In
the mean time the stub Of the bar attached
to the rear driving-wheel was pounding
the cab TO pieces rs the train continued at
increased speed, the throttle having been
thrown wide open by the blow. The engi-
neer was struck in the chest and face but,
staggering under the pain in the chest and
almost blinded by blood, he succeeded at
the risk of his life, while The cab was being
pounded to pieces by the flying stub Of the
slde-bar, in shutting off the steam and APP
plying the air-brakes, bringing the train TO
A stand-still. II Church had not stuck he
roically TO his post the runaway train would
have met the oncoming express with appal-
ling velocity.

over it and tells the lover to wake
her up when the thing is polished
off. Mr.. George Clark IS an electric
kisser-quality was never so much
a point with him as quantity. Les
ter Wallack is a mature paternal
kisser. His salutes are solid and
antique, like an English castle. He
has been often timed at the work,
and found to consume as much
as ten minutes over young actress
Mr.. Wallack usually puts his hand
on tho lady's head, turns her face
up, hits her on the mouth, and then
looks at her as if to say, There,
now you are sealed with the favor
of the house." Lawrence Barrett is
the oldest osculator on the stage: in
fact, his various leading ladies
shrink with horror from his en-
brace. When he went on for Henry
the Fifth at the California Theatre
some years ago, Eleanor Carey. who
played the French Princess, pos
itively refused to let him touch her
lips, not through prudery, but from
the simple fact that ne froze her
blood and gave her the spinal
meningitis. John Mccullough is
by common accord regarded as the
champion kisser of the American
stage. 1t is fire uently asserted that
the mantle Of the "old man" has
fallen on his shoulders, but, as a
honey sipper,I John doubly discounts
his great preceptor. He has eyerv
facility for discharging the pleasing
task, and when he kisses his leading
lady there is a gurgling sound heard
which leads to the belief that he is
chewing an OVer-ripG tomatoe. Tom
Keene's mouth is not made for kiss.
sing, consequently he discharges his
duties in a rather perfunctory man
ner. But the boss kisser is Frank
Kilday, of the Kiralfy troupe. He
is quiet and delicate in the matter,
and is known to the ladies of the
profession as q "breather." Jimmy
O'Neill kisses on the installment
plan. His delicacy of touch is such
that it is noticed after he has kissed
an actress she stands waiting under
the erroneous impression that the
thing missed fire. Louis Morrison
when he is about to kiss shows his
teeth and seems to invite the lady
to make sweet music on the enam-
elled stones. Billy Backus is a pre-
kisser and gives lessons
in the art. His kiss is so remark
able for its breadth and length and
depth, that when he is engaged in
the fascinating operation, it looks as
if the top Of his head had come off.
Osmond Tearle d. es not kiss at all ;
he bites his lips, an stretches out
his neck until a o .rt of his face
comes within n IN h of what is to
be kissed. This may be called the
kiss mythical. Frank Mayo grabs
the object to be kissed, and plants it
fair and square on her lips. This is
the kiss absolute. EOucicault gives
a frisky kiss, and means it every
time. Thomas Whiffen permits
himself to be kissed. Steele Mac
hayes Delsarte kiss has never been
described. It commences at the
left eYelash, and extends over the
plexus to the sensor
motor nerve of the upper jaw, from
which it radiates down in four
to the labia, and there
is gently but firmly manifested by
the capillaries.- Byrne's Dramatic
