when a Clergyman Is a Coward

Said a well-known clergyman the other
day. My experience is that, as a rule.
clergymen are very cruel to a brother
clergyman who is under cloud. lust as
women are pitiless to woman in trouble
and for the same reason. Some years ago
clerical friend of mine was accused of a
disgraoeiul act. He was not guilty but for
time appearances were against him.
Still it was morally impossible that he
could be guilty. Aud yet, not one of his
friends liz the ministry, except myself.
stood up fer him, and even | was ostra-
cized by my brethren for taking his part.
In short tine, fortunately, i.;s innocence
was clearly proved, and then his clerical
brethren were very anxious to show their
iriendliness to him. But he never forgaye
them for their cowardice. The fact is the
average clergyman is SO afraid ST being
compromised by scandal that he becomes a
cegard in such eases. If / had iiae say iii
the matter | would extend the course of
theos ogical students by putting them for n
year or two in some good business house
where they could learn little of the ha1d-
headed horse sense in which we parseAa
are SO deicienu. Men York Tribune

4 MUSICAL SNAKE.
L Confederate Soldiers Pet Lost and Re
covered.

L Confederate Soldiers Pet Lost and Re
covered.
In The year 1864 Confederate soldier
from one of the Louisiana regiments came
home with one of the young men and
spent his fIrlough at Vineland The SOL
der had pet rattlesnake about two feet
long, which he carried in an inside pocket
of his shirt. The soldier would whistle to
the snake "Dixie," "Bonnie Blue Flag"
and other popular war tunes, which al
ways had q noticeable effect on the little
snake He used the root of some kind of
herb as charm, aud a circle made Gu the
floor or ground with the root the snake
would not dare attempt to cross.
One day, while ont in the fed after fod-
der for his horse, the soldier placed the
snake in his hat and put it upon The fence,
first running the root around the brim of
the hat, so that the snake could not crawl
| out; but there came puff of wind and
blew the hat off the fence and, the in
Auence Of the charm being removed, the
snake crawled off into the swamp near at
hand The prettiest thing about the
| snake was that he was beautifully tattooed
with different colored inks.
The name of the snake, ''Dick," and the
initials of the soldier and his regiment and
company and c. S. A. were beautifully and
legibly tattooed on the back of the snake.
As time passed on and lifted the war
clouds and let in the sunshine of peace and
prosperity, no more was thought of the
soldier and his little rattlesnake "Dick."
In 1886, twenty years after the war, a
negro woman, in passing the swamp, dis
covered a very large rattlesnake, which,
after being killed, was found to have
twenty-six rattles and two buttons, and his
hide when stuffed held three pecks of
bran, but all the tattoing had gone out.
Then how are we to know that it was
''Dick?" Why, when the woman assumed
q warlike attitude "Dick" sprung his rat
ties and ratified off "Dixie" in such tones
as would put to blush a regular brass band,
and to the tune of which up marched
about one hundred well-armed young rat
tlesnakes, about six feet in length, all rat
Ting off Bonnie Blue Flag."-Alerandria
