Cows That Dislike Kids.

chicago Ii erald.
The ladies who had charge of the dairy
maids festival had some queer experiences
in properly dressing the young ladies.
Half of the dear young things hadn't the
remotest idea Of a dairymaid's tout en-
Semble.
Mrs. Chalmers, the superintendent, was
surprised last week by two young ladies
who called in the family carriage, the horse
looking as though the coachman had sent
them along at desperate jog. When Mrs.
Chalmers entered the parlor to welcome
her young friends they instantly arose and
rushed toward her. exclaiming:
''How will these do? You know Won
didn't tell US, and so we bought buff and
terra Gotta. Which do you like best?"
Mrs. Chalmers looked, and loI the young
misses held several pairs of new kid gloves
in their hands. When she could control
her emotion she said:
why, my dear children, you couldn't
milk COW with gloves on
AT this the young ladies pouted, said IL
was a shame and uttered thanks that they
were not real dairymaids.

PULPITS AND PEWS.
Bates Avenue Methodist Church to

Services in the Churches OF ST. Paul
To-day--Notes.
Bates Avenue Church Pastor.

The long vacancy in the pulpit of the
Bates Avenue Methodist church has at
length been filed by the selection of the
Rev. a. G. Wilson as the permanent pastor,
Bishop Andrews of the NJ. Z. church, who
presided at the annual conference at Roeh-
ester last fall, making the appointment.
Rev. Mr.. Wilson has the reputation of be-
ing very pleasant speaker and man of
scholarly attachments. and will doubtless be
quite an acquisition among the clergymen
of this city. The appointment gives much
pleasure and satisfaction to the members of
the church and congregation, who have
been without pastor for some time. Mr..
Wilson will occupy his pulpit to-day, both

He Could Play With Both Hands.

A. o. Babel, the Texas cowboy, gave a
piano rehearsal at the Washington avenue
rink last evening before fair-sized audi
ence. The program was made up of popu-
lar airs with difficult embellishments, and
was therefore pleasing TO all the listeners.
The pianist was attired IN the habiliments
of the untutored pale-face of the plains,
minus the bowie and siX-shooter. He exc
eutes rapidly with both hands, uses the
loud pedal with good effect, and renders the
compositions correctly as written-an ac-
eOmplishment said To have been acquired by
listening to good players. The statement is
made that he does not know one note from
another, which makes his playing remark

A SEVERE TEST.
How the Old Man Learned That His

''Oh, yes. He's just bought new one-a

But he takes it in the parlor with him.
Il see; you may run along now"
That evening. after Mary and her bean
had got comfortably seated, the old man
went coughing and stamping into the par
Tor. The lovers plug hat sat on a chair.
Foraker walked over to that chair and sat
down with all his might, smashing the hat
fiat as a 10cent piece, and observed:
Zine evening, sir. What do the papers
tonight have to say about the Servian- Bull
garian troubles?"
The young man grew red and then white.
He attempted to speak, but the words would
not come. He finally got up, cast one an
Initiating look on the old man, ignored the
girl entirely, and walked straight out of the
room and the house. As he descended the
steps the girl ran to the door and called:
"Millahl Willahl Won't you speak to
me?"
The old man followed her and called.
"Boyl you'll catch cold in your head
without hatr
But the young man never halted nor
turned his head, and when his hoof-beats
could no longer be heard on the walk the
father walked to the girl and said:

the citizens of st. Paul honored him by

turn from the rebellion, and when he had
nothing to do, that his friends made him
county treasurer. He then began to swing
into politics in way that indicated he was
possessed of great deal of skill and ability
in that direction. He was always one of

For eight years he managed the county

spirited warfare is waging in Newark
against the adoption Of BARNES Brief His
tory of the United States" new pubica-
ton, rs text book in tho public schools, on
account of its alleged non-union sentiments
in reference to the civil war. Several
months ago the committee on text books of
the board of education recommended its
use, and at meeting Of the board next
week the report will be acted upoo. Sever

Newark and ct once met with severe criti-
cism. Lincoln and kearney Posts, Grand

declaring that the sentiments contained in
the work were hurtlul to young minds, and
requesting The school commissioners not to
introduce it into the schools. The strife has
become so bitter that is will be carried into
the city election, which will be held on Oc-
toher u.
In the work the history Of the country is
divided into six epocns and the civil war,
which is the sixth epoch, is told in 66 pages.
The first sentence in the epoch is as follows:
