Alcoholism and Business.

The injurious results Of a coholisn.
in the sphere of business responsibility
had Il striking illustration recertIy in
Columbus. o.. in connee t:on with the
South End Bank of that city. The
cashier. who. it appears. was a large
owner of the stock IF the bank, had
been drinking heavily. and some time
ago was compelled to make good $l5.-
coo that he had overdrawn. but after a
pledge of abstience. was allowed TO
continue in the management of the
bank. Recently it was discovered that
he had again overdrawn his account of
tl6, 900. He was then suspended. and,
says the telegram. "went to Cincin.
natl to recuperate. The president Of
the bank posted notice to the de-
positors that "owing to the action OF
the cashier they were obliged to tenn
porarily suspend" The business Of
the bank was for the time broken up
and the interests of all who have in
vested therein were = jeopardized
through the agency Of strong drink. =

TEMPERANCE ITEMS,

Mr. w. S. GAME, Nj. p, of En-
gland, who has been travelling in
Japan. reports that, with population
of 81, 600, OO0 that country has only 1O.-
900 paupers. He attributes tEis to the
fact that they drink tea there instead
of beer. whisky and other intoxicants.
WITHIN fourteen months the Wonl-
ems Christian Temperance Union, of
Amesbury. Mass. has prosecuted
twenty-scven illegal liquor-sellers. and
all but two have been convicted. This
enterprising union has raised the
money and employed he detectives To
secure the above results.
The claim that the use of beer will
diminish drunkenness and largely
take the place of spirits is not borne
out by Parliamentary report in Bel
gium. This report says intemperance
is spreading fearfully in the kingdom.
Next to Bavaria Belgium has the
reputation of being the country where
most beer is consumed, the amount
per year being 24O liters. or 81 gallons
per head. 1t also comes next to Russia
and Denmark i'll The consumption OF
spirits, the amount consumed of the
latter being 13 liters per head per year.

A UNIQUE UMBRELLA.
The Valuable Miniature Parachute Carrie
by a CurIO Collector.

The Valuable Miniature Parachute Carried
by a CurlO Collector.
'Do YOU see that small, stout man
across the way?" asked loquacious
policeman, rs he pointed out to the
writer Il stocky little person who stared
abstractcdly through his iron-rimmed
spectacles and waddled complacently
along swinging an umbrella of gencr-
Gus proportions and sea-green hue.
The writer remarked that he had
seen the little man before, and in
quircd who he was.
That man." replied the office, sis a
connOisseur and collector OF curios,
and owns what is perhaps the largest
and most interesting private collection
of relics in the United States. He is
not Il mere accumulatOr of worthless
bric-a-brac. nor is his collections one of
curiosities only. Every article in his
large collection has history, and the
strangcst thing about them is that they
are daily (and many of them hourly
brought into requistion and made
practical Use of by their mattcr-of-fact
owner. The dishes used on his dinner
table, besides being varied and curious,
have the. added interest of having at
some period of their history graced the
board of some famous parsonage. His
tabie-linen, candelabra, clocks. rugs
and chairs. his very knives and forks,
once belonged to some noted persons.
'Hc declares his umbrella. however.
to he his greatest treasure. 1t is his
inseparable companion. and accom-
panies him wherever he goes. The
handle of this umbrella is made from
Il piece of the Charter Oak. in which is
set a small triangular piece of stone,
Clipped from Plymouth Rock; the stick
is made from branch of the old elm
tree at Cambridge. under which
Washington assumed command of the
Colonial armies; the brass cap on
the lower end of the stick is made from
the trimmings of 4 sword scabbard
once used by General Grant; the green
covering originally served rs the lining
of a coat Worn OH state occasions by
the suave and courtly Aaron Burr; the
ribs, springs and other metal trappings
were manufactured from \ small steel
cannon. captured by the Americans
from the Hessians ut the battle of
Brandywinc. Eight oblong pieces of
brass have been inserted in as many
sides of the octagonal handle. These
were made from buttons cut from the
military coats of eight Generals famous
in the revolutionary war.
The proud owner of this unique
umbrella does not believe in keeping
his treasures under lock and key. but
makes free use of his interesting pos
sessions. He is very careful. however.
not to lend his cherished storm screen,
and as yet has never left it behind him
in street car or elsewhere. Recog-
nizing the possibility OF such a catas-
trophe. however he has caused a small
tag to be sewed on the inside, which
bears the legend:

What Tiny Joe Told Little Nell About
Easter and It's Flowers.
"Violets, sweet violcts; who will buy ray
violetsr'
A chorus Of voices in wild confusion called
upon the pasSers b. to purchase the punches
of sprn. flowers that had sprun:, up after
tho winter SHOWS to greet the glad resurrec-
tloa feast
The; hal taken their stand outside Covent
Garr.rn these poor women and girls whose
Lroad dvpcirlcd upoa the sale of their violets.
1t was growing, dark, and Easter exc. too,
and :hia was their last chance. If the flow-
CO wee not sold before they wont to their
~Trc!chci homes, they would be lost, ali dead
an,l withcrel before Monday morning.
There was n girl who stood among the
crowd, holding her basket in her hand, but
not op"ain.: her lips, not Joining in tho gen
cr;.l Clalnor, only leaning against the wall,
AMI looking SO ralo and wrctchcd, it went tc
ONES heart to think that there was such
misery il tho wcrid as was written on that
fair young face. For it was very fair, in
spite of the tale it told of poverty and want;
there was something in tho girls whole ap-
pcarancc different to the people among whom
she was standing, something of refinement to
which they were strangers, and which they
could not understand. They ran after every
one who passed, screaming, vociferating,
entrcatins; she stood in her place, not speak
ing a single word, only standing there with
that look of mute entreaty upon her poor,
thin face.

TIE OLD CUSTOM OF HEATING.
tion Of Christ's death, adhered to the custom
Of holding the Easter festivity on tho day
prescribed for tho jewish pasch--the four
teenth day Of the first month; that is, the
lunar month of which tho fourteenth day
either falls on or next after the day of tho
ver:lal equinox.
But most of tho Christian churches attach
ing greater Importance to the day of Christ's
resurrection, held to Eastcr's being ccle-
brated on the Sunday which followed tho
fourteenth day of tho moon Of March, tho
day on which Christ suffered.
This question was tho cause OF serious
difference in tho church as early as the Sec
ond century, and was not finally settled until
tho Council Of Nico in tho year SIS. The
rule was then adopted which brings Easter
day always on the first Sunday after the full
moon which happens on Or next after March
2l, and it the full moon happens on a San
day, Easter day Is tho Sunday after. BY
this arrangement Easter r.aJ como as early
es March - or as late cs April %. E:stcr
Sunday occurs this year on the 1st day Of
April
