BURNING A CHURCH.

How it May be Done Cheaply and I'd
peditiously.
This art has been practiced with emit
nent success. We have had two very
complete examples in the neighborhood
of Boston within the last few years, and
we burn one church and a half per
week, sometimes two, in the United
States. This art is very simple. Inside
of a stone or brick exterior sham, con.
struct timber church with a ioisted
floor, sheathed overhead in the cellar 40
as to create certain number of wooden
cells, each one connecting with hollow
space between the outer stone sham
and the inner wooden structure. built
of light timber and fastened to the
stone walls by cross-braces of sawed
wood, very numerous. Connect these
interspaces in the vertical walls not
only with the cellular door, but also
with a large cavity in the roof between
the inch boards of the roof and the
false ceiling of the interior wooden
structures; then set furnace of an ap-
proved pattern, with metal air-box
near the furnace, but connecting with
wooden air-box in the hollow floor.
On the Friday of a very cold week. when
''Old Prob" says that Saturday will be
warm, light very hot fire in the fur
mace. By Saturday night or Sunday
morning the pressure of the cold air Of
the early part of the week, which had
accumulated inside the church, will
have circulated doUnagdrd through the
furnace, and viii have forced the hot
air through the wooden air-box in the
hollow door to sufficient extent to set
it on fire: the fire will be carried
through the wooden cells in the hollow
walls to the hollow spaces in the roof in
about five minutes, and the first alarm
will be given by some one who sees the
smoke issuing from the peak of the roof.
The whole of the interior structure be.
ing protected from water by the stone
or brick sham. the destruction of the
church will be very certain. This is a
customary and very successful method.

OlSCOPery OF % new Enemy TO his ESGHs
lent.
The conflict which is in constant op-
Grafton between man and the creeping
things of the earth is so equally bal.
anced that there is some doubt as to
which will conquer, No sooner does
man find some effectual remedy to
check the ravages of one insect than
another makes its appearance to devour
vegetation and that has been supposed
to be proof against the whole insect
tribe. We look back TO our boyhood
days and call to mind the luscious cur.
rants that grew almost spontaneously.
with no enemy to modest them, and
hanging in large clusters on the bushes
until September. How little did we then
suspect that some creeping worm would
come and destroy every green leaf be-
fore the currants could grow, and thus
leave the half green fruit to bake in the
sun. And the potato fields of our boy.
hood, how green and luxuriant they
kept until the cool nights of autumn
came; how little did we dream of the
sickening odor of the rot which comes
in a night and lays low the tops and
makes the tubers disgusting mass Of
corruption. But no sooner did we get
familiar with this new disease, than
came a disgusting slug to strip every
leaf from the stalks before the blastwas
ready to destroy them. Thus one thing
after another has been laid low by some
new enemy, and is only saved BY per-
sistent efforts directed by the sharpenel
wits Of man. But one product OF the
garden has been spared from destruct-
i've insects, and has been gathered IN.
furnished from insect pollution; it has
been looked upon as a product so clean
and SO good that every New England
Christian is expected to have his stoal-
ach filed with it before he goes to S.
ten to the Sabbath sermon. Who has
ever suspected that little insignificant
enemy to our own Boston bean would
suddenly make his appearance to de.
stroy the purity and the good qualities
of an article so necessary to mark the
weekly culinary calendar.
This new enemy appears in the shape
of very small worm that works in The
bean, evidently during the autumn, and
passes the winter in the bean to come
out in the spring like the pea bug. 4
does not appear quite as large as the
pea bug, but makes up innumbers what

continents Of worlds and the isles of light,
the Capitalize of Immensely. He crosses
over to the rnor mans condition, coming
into our world, not by palace gate, but
door of barn, spending his first night
among shepherds and afterward calling
fishermen from their nets to be his chief
attendants, with the hammer, adze, saw,
ak and chisel of carpenters shop, show
ing himself to be brother tradesman, ac-
cepting entertainment at the house of one
who tanned hides for 81 living, and, though
having owned all ITHACA. surrendering ev.

cast Him out. Assuredly at the cross and
grave of such a capitalist and carpenter all
rich men can afford to shake hands and
worship. Here is an every mans Christ.
None so high but He wss higher. None so

Mere Matter Of opInlon.

A trial has just taken place in St. Louis
which will have great interest to all the
dcyotees of the game which may more
fairly be called national than baseball.
The St Louis chief of police has been
on trial for gambling. The charge was
brought that he won $1,000 on a pair of
Fights and that he won SO, 700 at auoth-
er sitting. This, it was alleged, was gam
bling and not, as the chief alleged, merely
a ''gentlemanly game"
A vast number of witnesses were called
to testify as to what a ''g~entlemanly game"
OF poker really is. Several thought that
"a ten-cent ante and a quarter limit" was
about the thing. Others held hat "a
twenty-five cent ante and a ihy-cent linn
it, with no rake off or widow was en-
inently gentlemanly. A rake Off or
widow il was testified, is what is known
in the east as a Kitty OF the withdraw
al Of a large chip from each pot for
the purpose of paying for drinks or room
money.
There seemed to be some difference of
opinion after all about a "gentlemanly
game, bat the weight of the evidence
was in favor of the smaller amount
II it is to be regretted that Gen. Schenck
in his famous manual of the game, did
not %stipulate the proper amount to be
played for but if there is any argument
from analogy a ''ten-cent ante seems
right, for this somewhat corresponds to
"six-penny points and a shilling the rub
Der in whist which the immortal Mrs.
Battles used to believe pre- -eminentY
proper, At any rate we believe that the
majority of poker players will assent to
the theory that if they must play poker
the best game is that played for the least
money, though it were better il there
were no money stake at all.

a Philadelphia hotel clerk is response.
BILE for the following: In many of the
hotels the base ball players are not al
lowed to go into the dining-rooms with
their spiked shoes on. They always
dress for a match before dinner and
have a way of tramping about on the
carpet and over the painted floors of
the dining-rooms. The spikes in their
shoes ruin the carpets and leave the
dining room floors full of holes. Now
at some of the hotels they leave their
shoes IN the railways and go into the
dining rooms in their stocking feet.
Guests object TO it, and so there are
very few hotels who care to accommo-
date bali players. The average ball
player knows very little about hotel life,
or how to conduct himself in a dining
room. They ask for mince pie in mid
summer and want b~uckwheat cakes for
dinner and apple dumplings for supper,
I've seen them play catch at table
with hard-boiled eggs and salt-cellars,
and they invariably let the whole dining
room know how the game was played or
how they are going to play" went on
the clerk and only the other night at
our hotel two Of them were playing ball
with the ottomans in the parlor."
