They Gave Banquet Before Leaving

They Gave Banquet Before Leaving
For more than a month past there have been
no two more anxious ofice-seeking Missourians
IN town than Gen. B. G. Farrar and L. s. Metcalf,
both Of st. Louis. The general wanted to be
and still wants to be assistant treasurer
of the United States at st. Louis, while Mr..
Metcalf has not given up all hope of being
appointed appraiser. Repeated failures to
bring matters to a comprehensive focus,
neglected businesses in st. Louis, aud
rapidly growing board bills decided
the matter, SO far as staying here
was concerned Last night the two gentlemen
gave q farewell spread to several Missouri
friends and to a number Of newspaper men
who are not Missourians. A few of the summer
opera artists were also invited from Albaugh's,
and it is said that the company
had a decidedly pleasant time. Among
those present were ex-Judge Drake, r. H. Syi.
vester, Major 8. h. Brock, Prof. Love, Stanley
Waterloo, Major Clemens, w. b. Stevens, q.
A. Apperson, OBrien Moore, f. A. G. Handy,
Dunn and Pearson. Everybody either made a
speech or sung a song, and some of the more
accomplished did both.

One of the blazing questions with which the next general convention of the Protes. ant Episcopal church will have to grapple at whatsoever risk of scorched fingers is the question of the status of black-skinned churchmen and especially black skinned clergymen. Here is part of what that gallant ex. soldier of the confederacy Bishop Dudley of Kentucky, had to say about it tc his diocesan convention last week:
 The negroes will not come into the church upon the principle indignantly repudiated by St. James, Stand thou there, or sit here un. der my footstool." They do not object, they will not, I believe, object to belong to con. gregations exclusively composed of their own race, for social considerations will always de. termine congregational affiliations. But the action now proposed in some dioceses, and seemingly imminent with its destructive force is not social but ecclesiastical, not congrega. tional but diocesan; it is to stigmatize the ne gro priest, however learned, however intelli. gent, however successful in his Masters work and to refuse him equal rights in the diocese which is the church; and to deny to congre gations of black men their rights inherent and essential, not conventional or statutory, il the one body. If this be done, then let ui quietly abandon all expectation and all en deayor to do anything for the education ant evangelization of these people.

MARRIED HIM TO REFORM HM.-I knew a young lady who had everything which usually constitutes the happiness of those who have not yet climbed the golden stairs of matrimonial paradise. Her age was 20 years she was a brunette of graceful fig ure, with peculiarly animated expression of countenance. Her complexion was rich and warm, her large eyes were merry, and her features would pass muster among sculptors. At receptions held in the arm- ory of the Twenty third regiment she was always observed with admiring interest, and she had beaux by the score. We'll, at last she came to decision, and heard of her marriage. knew the young man she chose, and was startled. That was years ago. A year ago was riding up town on 8 car. The car was crowded, and I stood by the front door reading. I heard my name pronounced, and looked down, but did not at first recognize the face that was faintly smiling on me. It was weirdly pale and wrinkled and care-worn. I look ed, puzzled for few moments, and then it dawned on me that this was the wreck of one of the prettiest girls in Brooklyn. I accompanied her as far as the door of her house. It was tenement house.
 .'I won't invite you in today" she said, ''my rooms are somewhat disordered." I said nothing, but I understood. It was pitiful to see her try to keep up the pretense of being lght-hearted, happy, and prosperous. Not long since I heard her husband was in the lunatic asylum, and her baby dead. Now she has gone home to begin life over again. She had married man to reform him.-Brooklya -Ea0le,

A WARNING.

This is true story that ought to be a warning to people who buy diamonds at the Palais Royal during the Paris exhibi- ton: A young Virginia girl was in that city three or four years ago, and one morn- ing, pour 8 0q7auseT, went to one of the many jewelry shops that adorn that court yard, to buy pair of imitation diamond earrings. ssI will astonish the natives, '' remarked the young lady, "when they see me in this finery. Of course nobody who really knows me will be deceived 7 for,
 though beautiful and good, she was poor and district school teacher. On one side of the shop, as the law directs, was sign proclaiming that the jewels on that counter were false on the other was another sign which stated that they were real. Our young lady bought her imitation stones for twenty francs and went away much amused with her inappropriate purchase.
 Her good taste after all did not permit her to wear her spurious jewels, and two years passed before she put them in her pretty ears. But one night, while dressing for a fancy ball, she remembered that nothing hair and rouged cheeks as these paste dia- monds. So down into her top drawer she plunged headlong to find them. When she came up out of muddle of handker- chiefs, love-letters, old gloves, veils satch- els, hairpins, curling irons, sashes and French novels, she bore with her the two -rings-one hidden in an old veil, the other in 8 powder box. As she imagined. they proved vastly becoming, and by their brilliancy so added to her beauty, that on her return from the ball, she was vexed that one of them had become loosened and rolled down on the marble of the mirror before which she was unmasking her pret- ty toilet. A servant found it the next day, and another dance being in prospect, our young lady decided to take the ear-rings to a jeweler to have them set more securely. stVery fine diamonds you have, Miss" re. marked the jeweler, when he had examin
 ed the stones, "but we have secure safe
 so don't be uneasy" The young lady laughed at the witicism, and asked how much he thought her handsome jewels were worth. She had an idea she hao paid too much. "Well," said the mer
 chant, after another prolonged examina
 tion through his magnifying glass, "l should say about $2, 500, but diamonds art cheaper now, and that may be an over-es timate." It turned out, to make long story short, that the paste jewels were req diamonds, which by some chance the Pa
 rislan jeweler had changed from the count CT to which they belonged to the one re served for imitation stores. In the multi tude of shops in the Palais Royal it would have been impossible to have traced t,
 which one the stones belonged, and ou
 young lady had no idea where and O
 whom they were bought. It was an em
 barrassing situation, and she still has tn Istones, which proved so inappropriate fo
 a district school teacher that she has live, lup to them by marrying a man so ricl
 that he has given her necklace to match

DIDN'T KNOW HIM.

The local staff of the Chicago Tribune is having great deal of fun on the quiet over break recently made by young re- porter who doesn't know the ropes very well. The other evening the young man was assigned to report 8 reception among the upper ten. Inasmuch as it was 8 very exclusive affair, the reporter knew that the names of those in attendance were espe- pecially desired,- and he went to work to gather them. He was doing first-rate when he ran against fine, whisker- ed old gentleman, who happened at the moment the reporter tackled him to be the center of Q group of ladies and gentlemen in corner of one of the parlors. The young man had jotted down the names of the others and asked the gray-haired old gentleman, very politely:
 "Will you kindly give me your name, sir? I'm making list of the guests"
 "Eh 2" said the gray bearded old gen. tleman, putting his hand to his ear.
 'I would like your name if you please ?" repeated the reporter.
 ssEh? What?" and the old man in- clined his head attentlvely.
 The young man thought "Well, here's a nice old guy to be turned loose in decent society. I wonder why he doesn't carry an ear trumpet?" But he only gathered a lungful of wind and said in voice that startled the dancers:
 'T'm 8 reporter, and would like your name." "Oh, reporter, eh? What paper?"
 "The Tribune. Will you give me your name?"
 The old gentleman stroked his gray whiskers tenderly, looked at the reporter calmly and said quietly:
 "Joseph Medill." ..-.. The reporter concluded his list of names right there and made his escape I sub init that this thing of being so exclusive that your own hired men never get a chance to know you, even by sight, is all wrong. It is calculated to discourage sensitive young men such as naturally y gravitate to the Newspaper vineyard and to drive them out of the business.

EMBRYO. Wm.-Daniel Webster, when quite young at school, was one day guilty of violation of the rules. He was detect ed in the act, and called up by the teacher for punishment. This was to be the old fashioned feruling of the hand. His hands happened to be very dirty. Knowing this, on his way to the teachers desk he ,wetted the palm of his right hand with his tongue and wiped it on the.side of his dress. "Give me your hand, sir" said looked at it moment, and said: ssDan. iel, if you will find another hand in this school-roem as filthy as that, I will let you off this time." Instantly from behind his back came the left hand. "Here it IS, sir, was the ready reply. "That will dc this time, " said the teacher; "you can take your seat, sir"

"Mary," sobbed Kitty Kane, clinging around her friends neck, ''I never dream ed of destitution and misery. like this. Here, take my money spend it!'' and she put her purse into. Mary's wan hand. t'My God! and not an hour ago was re- pining because could not waste it in silks and faces and gew-gaws." Mary Ford looked eagerly at the bills.
 "Ten dollars Ten dollars r she gasp ed, feebly, as she looked down at the crum- pied bits of paper. "Do you mean all this for me ?''
 "Take it!' 7 < 1
 "God bless you. Kitty" said Mary Ford, with 8 choking sob in her throat. and would have been woyears ago God bless you!"
 "And will go home," Kitty added, for some wine and jelly, and delicate crackers such as invalids like. I will not be gone long, dear Mary I"
 Kitty Kane did not go to the party. She spent no time on founces and furbe. lows. All her leisure hours were devoted l to the aid and necessity of her friends. The evening after the party Mir. For. dyce called.
 "You were not at Miss Porter's last night" he said, when the first greetings were exchanged.
 "No."
 l "But know where you were, Kitty. never felt toward you as felt when the poor sick man in the tenement house told me how you had been an angel of mercy and tenderness to him and his l"
 "How did you happen to know of him ? Kitty asked, coloring
 "A friend, a benevolent old clergyman desired me to go there. They need help, said he. All Gods children should heiE one another. You have leisure, Harry Fordyce, and you have money So I wen -and so heard of your gentle and char itable office, Kitty ... She was silent.
 'How many of the bellies who waltzed away the hours at Mss Porter's ball las night would have given up everything tt Gods work, as you have done, do you sup pose, Kitty?" asked Fordyce, after mo ment or two.
 "Many, hope."",
 "But, as I know of only one, I would like to make sure of that one, said For dyce, smiling "I always liked you, Kit ty. To-day, as I stood by poor Ford pillow and heard him speak of you, I kney that I loved you. Will you be my wife Kitty ?" s ..~
 So Kitty won the coveted treasure o her heart, and wore it, too, without an ei fort. She had enlisted under the alvin banner of Charity, and she had her reward
