The Little Mud Sparrows.
a JeJcish Le0eRd.)
By ELIzARErH stuart PuELPs.


like that old sweet legend
Not found in Holy Writ
And wish that John OF Matthew
Had made Bible out Of it.
But though Il is not Gospel
There i no law TO hold
The heart from growing better
That hears the story told
How the little Jewish children
Upon a summer day
Went down across the meadows
With the Child Christ TO play.
And In the gold green valley
Where low the reed grass lay,
They made them mock mud sparrows
out OF the meadow clay
80. when these an we're fashioned
And RANGED iu tiOcks about,
NOW said the little Jesus,
Wen let the birds ny out"
Then all the happy children
Did call. and coax; and cry
Each 70 his own mud-sparrOw:
Ply, as / bid you-ry"
But eaTthen were the sparrOwS
And earth they did remain;
Though loud the Jewish children
Cred out and cried gain
Except the one bird only
I ne ulllT Aahtn Z mist illalt.
The earth that owned Him Master.
HIS earth heard and obeyed.
Softly lie leaned and whispered:
Ply up To Heaven, ry -
And swift his title sparrow
Went soaring TO the sky
And silent all the children
stood aWe-struck looking on,
Till deep into the heavens
The bird Of earth had gone
II like 10 think for playmate
We have the Lord Christ still.
And that still above our weakness,
He works his mighty will,
That all our little playthIngs
Of earthcn hopes and joys
Shall be by his commandment
Changed into heavenly toys
Our souls are like the SpaTrOwS
Imprisoned in the clay
Bless Him who came To give them wings
Upon Christmas Dayi

II THE light of such facts as the
spending of hundreds of thou
sands Of dollars in various ways
directly connected with the prize fight
which took place recently in Southern
Mississippi and the remarkable demon
STATIONS of almost universal public
interest in the outcome of the contest,
nothing could be more fantastic than
the fears so often expressed ly t-eOretl-
cal and imaginative writer's that modern
civilization will break down from over
refu, ment and the decline OF brute
force. If the Goths and Nandals OF the
future ever overrun the nations OF
Western Europe and America, 1t Will
not be the result of any lack OF devo-
ton, in English and Germanic eoun-
tries, at least TO physical development
and athletic sports and trials or
strength. The notion that the ascend
ency OF mind in the prize-winning of
the age has destroyed the deep seated
and strong admiration for bodily power,
skill and beauty, always characteristic
of the Anglo->aNon race, Is absurd
Strength Is still the pride OF nearly
every man who possesses it and the
envy of the weak, Just as beauty re-
mains a woman's most universally
esteemed and, In many respects, her
richest dover. II possible, the worship
Of muscle and physical prowess, beauty
and grace, is becoming stronger ana
more open than ever before IN recent
times. Athletic sports were nevor SO
popular OF so much discussed, IN
the United States, at least. Refined
and accomplished women take an inter
est in base ball, rowing, yachting, foo'
ball, tennis, racing of various kinds
and many other outdoor sports, which
would have amazed their .randmothers
OF even their mothers.

THE Emperor Of Germany has given
the Paris exposition a tremendous ad-
vertIsement by forbidding the German
officers from attending it. It is not
unlikely that there will be a large dele
cation Of the imperial forces around the
TrocaJero. Were it not for the pro-
hIbition, they might not have thought
Of It. Should they go there, they may
learn a good deal about a certain battle
Of Gemappes, which occurred about a
century ago.

TIE treasury department has de-
cided that a performer of band music
is 4 laborer and is not an artist. This
will be news for the members OF Gill
mOre's band, each Of whom is a solo
artist II would be interesting to know
at what point trade leaves off and art
begins. Levy and Arbuckle have been
glad to play in band, even when they
were at the zenith of their fame. Per
haps it may be decided that Patti is an
artist when she sings alone, and i
aborer when she takes part in an
ensemble.

TIE commission i'll charge Of the
Conemaugh valley relief fund have de-

which appears To be fair TO all con-

SIX classes, the first including the most
needy, generally women who have lost
their husbands or sons and are left with
large families to support. There are
over two hundred cases in this class,
and 1t is suggested that they be given
$1,000 each. The payments recon-
m,uded for the other classes range from
5000 to $500, according to the degree OF
destitution. The total number of cases
reported to be in immediate want is
placed at $3.50, and the plan of the
committee is to at once distribute
among them 81, 1S6, 600.

HANGING does not seem to be played
out yet in New York, as three murder
ers have Just been sentenced to be sus-

was supposed to have been adopted as
the instrument of justice; but the iner-

and on one pretext and another the old
bsrbarous method Of choking a con-
demned criminal is retained in prefer
encs to putting him to death by
scientific means.

THIS is time of the year when the
school teachers who really love their
profession and desire to combine busi-
ness with pleasure, and go off to pleas
ant places to hold institutes and con-

have been such national conventions in

New Hampshire; the State Association
has been holding a convention III

countless county Institutes, which ar
range for pleasant and instructive

their effectiveness and value as edu-
