PREACHING FROM NOTES.

A certain minister Of Scotland had n
custom of writing the heads OF his dis
course on small slips Of paper, which
he placed on the Bible before him, to
be used in succession. One day when
he was explaining the second head, he
got so excited in his discourse, that he
caused the ensuing slip TO fall over
the edge Of the pulpit, though unper-
ceived by himself.
On reaching the end Of his second
head, he looked for the third slip; but,
alas! it was not TO be found. Third
W. he cried, looking around with
great anxiety. After a little pause,
Thirdly" again he exclaimed; but
still no thirdly appeared. Thirdly, /
say, my brethren, pursued the bewil-
dered clergyman; but not another
word could he utter At this point,
while the congregation were partly
sympathizing in his distress, and part
ly rejoicing in such decisive instance
of the improperly Of using notes In
preaching which has always been an
unpopular thing in the Scotch clergy,
all old woman rose up and thus ad-
dressed the preacher: IF I'm no mis-
ta'en, saw thirdly flee out at the
east window a quarter Of an hour

Berlin has lately been treated TO
new light opera, by English compos-
ers. and given in English at hrolTs
Theatre. Like Inslem and Isolde, the
scene opens on shipboard, and the
plot turns on the love OF common
sailor for young lady above him in
rank. II il should be taken 10 Amer

PiRdfore. Last week we went 10 the
same theatre to hear the Mikado,
given by the same London Company.
TO an American no small part OF the
fun of the entertainment existed IN
watching the audience. People were
generally armed with German lihret-
tos, and the air of deep and serious at
tention with which men and women,
old and young, followed the play, and
pondered over the translated jokes,
was simply delicious OF course many
of the illusions fell fiat on German
ears. but enough of the interest re-
NAMED to hold the audience in high
ly pleased condition and the the mu-
sic was much admired. The flowers
that bloom in the spring was given
four times in response TO enthusiastic
recalls. Some variety theatre here is
playing bWiesque on the Aikddo, which
burlesque must be simply overwhelm-
ing with its heavy artillery of German
jokes.

Not long ago heard IA rehearsal of
the orchestra at Joachim's Conserva-
tory. This orchestra is composed of
the pupils connected with the school
and is really very good one. They
gave the Fifth symphony with fine
effect. Joachim himself welded the
baton. and he led with nervous en-
ergy that reminded me strongly OF
poor DR.. Damrosch. Among the vio-
inists there were perhaps six young
girls nearly every one looking pale
and overworked The course OF mu-
steal study followed at this school is

FRAHKLIES FAMOUS TOAST.

Ben Franklin was dining with a
small party Of distinguished gentle.
men when one Of them said: Here
are three nationalities represented; /
am French, and my friend there is En-
glish, and Mr. Franklin IL an AIDeri-
can. Let US each propose a toast. !"
1t was agreed 10, and the English
mans turn came first. He arose. and
in the tone Of Briton bold, said:
Here goes TO great Britain, the sun
that gives light to all nations OF the
earth
The Frenchman was rather taken
back at this, but he proposed:
Here's 70 France, the moon whose
magic rays move the tides OF The
world
Our Ben then arose with his air OF
quaint modesty and said:
Here's 10 George Washington. the
Joshua Of America, who commanded
the sun and moon TO stand stili-and
they stood still"

upon his back, his hair sinoothed back
by pomatum To prevent its covering
any part Of the face, and a conical
piece of paper, or straw, or quill,
put in each nostril 10 breathe through.
The ewes and mouth are then closed
and the entire face completely and
carefully covered with salad oil. The
plaster, mixed To the proper consist
ency, Is then poured in large spoon
fuls 10 the thickness OF one-Quarter or
one-half inch. In few minutes this

work OF the sculptor. When the clay

along the figure from the head 10 the
base, and the front is first completed
up the ridge by filling up the depres-
sions two or three inches deep. The
ridge of clay is now removed, the
edges of the plaster are oiled, and the
other half is done i'm a similar way
The two halves are likewise tied to

THE SOUTHERN GIRL

Her dimpled cheeks are pale;
She's lily of the vale,
Not a rose.
In muslin or lawn
She is fairer than the dawn,
To her beauX.
Her boots are thin and neat,
She is vain about her feet,
Ii is said.
She amputates her RS,
But her eyes are like the stars
Overhead.i
On balcony at night.
With fieecy cloud ofwhite
Round her hair;
Her grace, ah. who could paint?
She would fascinate saint,
declare.
'Tis a matter OF regret,
She's bit OF a coquette.
Whom sing;
On ner cruel pain hHe soes
With a half q dozen beauX
On her string.
But let that all pass by,
And her maiden moments fly,
Dew empearled.
When she marries, on my life,
She will make the dearest wife
In the world.

The publication at Winnepcg of Premier
Greenway's letter denying any knowledge of
any conspiracy against his government in
the Northern Pacific railway dealhas brought
forth a letter from the city editor of the Sun,
the paper that made the charges of conspir.
acy. In it the city editor declares upon oath
that Premier Greenway gave him oil the in
formation pertaining to the conspiracy, and
continues:
1t was Mr.. Greenway who gave the infor-
nation about letters being sent out to
country members 1t was Mr. Greenway
who told who had received one, and who
gave the information about Mr.. Benton hav-
ing signed it. 1t was Mr.. Greenway who
hthted that the conspiracy had been hatched
and CARVED ON by the Hudson's Bay railway
pushers, and he had pretty strong evidence
Oft. 1t was Mr.. Greenway who mentioned
the contents of the letter so far as he knew,
particularly about the conspirators having
a majority and the Free Press being in with
the scheme. 1t was Mr.. Greenway who said he
had received an ANONYMOUS letter warn
ing him to beware of what had just been 'un.
earthed. Many other most awkward things
did Mr.. Greenway say. discussed with Mr..
Greenway the information l had received, and
told him intended publishing it. lie offered
no objections, and l left him with the i'm
preston that he was perfectly satisfied.

abroad to the effect that the kitwancools
were beseiging the whites in the Hudson Bay
fort there. Every night since the Indians be-
came hostile man has been on guard, and
at all times every gun in the premises has
been loaded. No violence has, however, been
offered. The only danger that has threatened
has been the exhaustion of the supplies

Green, the constable who killed Kitwancool
Jim, while trying to capture him and was
placed under arrest, will be called upon to

at Hazeton. His arrest had u statutory
effect upon the Indian.
Details have been received of the massacre
at Saganeti. The Abyssinian chief, Debeb,
had assembled force of men with the inten-
ton of raiding the Arkiko district The
Italian commander at Massowah, hearing of
the Intended raid, sent 600 Bashi Bazouks
under command of five Italian officers to try
and surprise Debeb's force. On the road the
officers enlisted the services of 200 members
of the Assaartin tribe. Saganeti was reached
and it was found that Dcbeb had been warned
of their approach and entrenched their posi-
ton. An attack was made by the Italian
force, however, and they succeeded in con-
Quering tho village. But during the assault
tho Assaartin's proved treacherous and
made an attack on the Italian rear. The
Bashi Bazouk's became panic stricken and
were massacred while endcavoring to fly.

News about People.

Several weeks ago George White and fami.
~ came to Racine, Wis, from Two Harbors,
Mich. He had just been forced to give up
his position of superintendent of the Duluth
Iron Range, because of a singular affection,
which baf1ed the skill Of the doctors of his
former home. Waking from sleep one morn.
ing about three years ago, he experienced an
uciating pain i'll the right ear. After the
pain had passed away it left him deaf in the
right ear; the deafness gradually extended to
the left ear, until he became almost totally
deaf and was forced to give up his position.
He came to Racine for q change of climate,
and one day he went to milwaukee to con-
SUIT an ear specialist, who; after animation,
took an instrument and drew out black
beetle that measured q fourth of an inch
across. Mr.. Whites hearing was instantly
restored, and a happier man is not to he
found anywhere.
Senator Cochrane who has just returned to
Canada from q visit to the Mormon SETTLE
ment near Fort Mcleod, Northwest territory,
reports that already 500 people have come
over from Salt Lake to settle in tho new
Canadian colony. Mr.. Carr, the chief among
them, and who is married to one of Brigham
Young's children, says the population will be
thousands next year. He states that they
come to their new home with full knowledge
of the laws of the country and intend to con-
form to them. While they still adhere to
their belief in polygamy they will make no
attempt to practice it. He informed the sem
ator that his people were well pleased with
them of building up a colony which would be
a credit to the dominion They however
found it a great sacrifice to be compelled to
abandon forever the tenets of their church,
and will probably make an effort to secure
special legislation from parliament to allow
them to continue tho practice of polygamy.
