ST. Paul's Episcopal church was filed to
its utmost capacity on Sunday morning al
s o'clock, there being over 300 people pre-
sent. The church was beautifully deco
rated. In each window were two pots of
Towering plants, and the chancel was full
of calla lilies and other flowers. The gas
jets were all burning at the opening Of the
service, but when the sun came pouring
through the stained glass windows the gas
was slowly turned of, and the effect was
beautiful. The music was rendered by the
usual choir, consisting of Misses Brewer
and Hendershott, soprano, Misses Fox and
Musselman, alto, MIR. P. E. Writ, tenor,
and Mr. L. S. Wintersteen, bass. Miss
Musselman, who is Normal student, re-
sides at Danville, but kindly consented to
remain over Sunday to assist, though there
was vacation of several days.
The music as announced last week was
well rendered, the Gloria in Ercelsis from
Wells Third Mass, being the leading feat
ure. This is a grand composition, and is
full of beautiful solos, duets and choruses.
closing with grand crash of harmony.
Its execution occupied twelve minutes.
At 10 O'Clock there was Holy Commun-
ion, and an appropriate sermon by the rec
tor Rev. l.. Zahner.
The children's services in the evening
was largely attended, the Easter offerings
of the school amounting to over $50.

An exchange has the following very SEN
sible remark "One Of the great crimes
known to the statutes is being taught in
our public schools, no more, perhaps, in
one town than in another, yet 1t is matter
which deserves investigation. When the
teachers require pupil to bring an excuse
for absence from their parents, the first
lesson begins. The pupil often finds him-
self in severe straits. He knows that his
parents will not furnish him an excuse, and
he knows that unless he does get an excuse
in some shape or other, punishment
awaits him at school. A bright thought
occurs to him. He will write the excuse.
The teacher will not know the difference,
and so he goes to work and forges his par
ents' name to paper. Or, if he is not
able, he has friend, young man, per-
haps, who is always willing TO help the
little shaver out of trouble. So the first
lesson is learned, and after that the path is
an easy one."

Capt. VIM j. Allen died at bis home In
Madison township on Wednesday, April
LIST, after an illness of some time. Mr. Al
len served faithfully in the army, and took
part In some of our fiercest battles, notably
among which was that of Gettysburg.
While enduring the exposures necessary to
army life he contracted that dread dis
ease Of consumption which eventually
brought him to the grave. For years past
he has not been able to do much labor, and
was frequently urged to apply to the gov
ernment fora pension. But he always
would answer that so many were drawing
pensions unjustly that he feared some CEN
sure might be laid upon him, and he did
not wish to do anything that would pro-
woke cause for any one to speak dishon-
orably of him.

sorrow to his many friends and acquai n

and where he passed the earlier years of
his life He was gentleman of the old
school, ever courteous and polite. He had
read law, but never applied for admission
to the Bar. The Gazette O. Bulletin says
Mr.. Biggs was ayoung man of great in.
tellectual attainments. He had travelled
extensively in this and the old country. He
was bright, witty and cheerful, and never
did harm by word or deed to any one. He
was a most delightful companion and
his many friends will not soon forget
him. The deepest sympathy is felt throug-
out the city for his widowed mother, in
this, her hour of trouble.

OIL POURED ON THE WATERS
An Experiment Which, 1t is Believed
Saved Vessel and Crew.
From tie Mem York Herald.


GLOUCESTER, MASS, May 5.-KerO-
sene oil thrown on the rough waters by
the cook of the schooner Francis NJ. LOr-
ing, which has arrived at this port this
morning, is probably the only thing that
saved her and her crew from destruction.
The schooner left Portland April IS for a
mackerel trip south. She went sixty
miles south, southeast of Cape Henl0pen,
and remained on the fishing grounds
fifteen days, catching about $50 barrels Of
mackerel.
When she set sail for home last We'd
nesday she encountered a gale when 125
miles east OF Barnegat. The deck load of
mackerel { $50 barrels) was consigned to
the deep, the bulwarks were stove in and
the companion way and skylights were
broken. A seine boat and one dOTy, with
a part of a seine, were carried away, the
cabin filed with water, and Capt. Brown,
