Free MASONRY and the Pope.

The Rev. j. j. White, pastor of the
Fourth Street Methodist Protestant
Church, Williamsburg, preached ON
Sunday evening about the Pope's letter
against Free Masonry.
ale has written" he said, ito all bis
bishops asking them to appeal to the
Blessed Virgin for help in their fight
against this order. Let me appeal TO
her to come with me to the death-bed,
to every place where there is sufferer,
YES, to come with me even to the grave,
and look upon the work which Masonry
performs for poor humanity. Let her
come with me to the Widows and Or
phans Home, and then tell me whether
she of the kind heart will give help to
her son Leo to put down this great or
gaDization. IS.
"Let her come into the lodge room,
and then let her say whether she will
assist Leo aud his bishops in disrupting
the society which is based on the word
of God and which holds tenaciously to
the teachings of the Son.
mo, the organization will not be put
down. Leo breads it because he fears
he is losing his hold on the people, and
that the power of holding the SECRETS OF
the families of the world is slipping
from him. No secret is a secret to him.
Through his priests and bishops he is
the worlds repository of secrets. Free
Masonry is one of the forces at work tc
deprive him of the power based on the
possession of these secrets"

turned over to the temperance people.
Then the still-house folks gun ter howl,

The schoolboy ON Corn.
Southern Watchman.

Corns are of two kinds, vegetable and
animal. Vegetable corn grows in rows,
and animal corn grows on toes. There
are several kinds of corn; there is the
unicorn, the capricorn, corn dodgers,
corn field and the corn you feel the
most. It is said, believe, that gOphers
like corn, but persons having cOrns do
NOT like to 'gO fur if they can help it.
Corns have Kernels, and some colonies
have corns. Vegetable corn grows on
ears. Int animal corn grows on feet, at
the other end of the body. Another
kind of corn is the acorn this grows
on oaks, but there is no hoax about the
corn. The acorn ia corn with an in
Gefnite article indeed. Try it and see
MANY a man when he has corn wishes
| it was an acorn, but not an aching corn.
| FOLKS that have cOrns sometimes send
for q doctor, and it the doctor himself
is corned, he probably won't do so we'll
as il he isen't. The doctor says corns
are produced by tight, boots and shoes,
which is the reason why, when man is
sstipht.'' they say he Is corned. If q
farmer manages well, he can get good
| deal of corn on an acre, but I know a
| f. rner who has corn that makes the
I h;ooest acher on his farm. The bigger
cr9n of vegetable corn he raises the
better he likes it; but the bigger crop
of animal corn he raises, the better he
doesn't like it. Another kind of corn ie
he corn dodger. The way it is made is
very simple, and it is as follows-that
is. Il you want to know. You go along
the street and meet man you know
4 has a corn and a rough character then
Won step on the toe that has corn on il
and see if you don't have occasion tC
dodge. In that way you will find out
what corn dodger is.

A sermon BY Pere Hyacinth /.

Chicago, May 1.-THE famous French
Priest Pere Hyacinth preached at Trini-

morrow and will at once sail for France
being recalled by formal notice of de-

give that reformation new and power

LOVEqN THREE SECTIONS.

sECTIoNI,
A pretty girl,
A pleasant whirl
Behind team of grays,
A nice young man
TO plot and plan
In various kinds Of ways.
A blush and squeeze
Are sure to please,
Another fond caress,
Some further chat,
A smile and laugh,
And then gentle "Yes."
SECTION II.
A preacher pale,
A bridal veil,
Come thro' the parlor wide;
The groom is there,
Complete the pair,
And then the knot is tied.
SECTION III.
A year has gone,
Time sweeps along
In its unceasing tramp;
Now see that groom
Charge round the room
The baby's got q cramp,

The heavy, excessive and long con-
4inued rains have done great damage to
the crops. The fields are kept Hooded
so they can not be worked, and grass
and weeds grow rapidly.
