A PROFOUND youNasrER.
He Enlightens the 400 Theologianc by
His Discoveries

t4io blbCONtTleS.
There was convention OF Sunday school
teachers in session at Crystal Lake, and all
the teachers OF the three counties repre-
scented were there. The amount OF Bibli-
cal and theological knowledge they had
was something astounding, says the Chi
cago Mda. On the last day Of the conven-
tion the high chief ranger Of the affair an
nounced to the 400 delegates that he would
be pleased to have the knowing ones think
up some hard questions on subjects per-
tanning TO their work, write them on slips
of paper, and submit them to him, and
that evening at the last session, which was
to be sort Of entertainment, he would
answer them. A lot OF people wrote their
questions and handed them to the great
professor, and when evening came he had
about fifty good old gnarly problems in his
bunch OF paper slips.
The evening exercise began with read
ing and answering the questions, and
though some Of them were from away back
and very obtuse. the good man who had
put himself up there as mark COPIED with
them successfully and impressed the great
gathering with his vast knowledge.
Finally he ran against question that
made him knit his brows. lie scowlcd at
it a moment and then laid il aside. When
he answered all the rest he picked up this
side-tracked query and said
Here Is question which / confess
am unable to answer. | submit il TO the
audience, and ii any one is able TO give
the answer l will be glad to hear what
it is"
Then he read this query
WHO was the boy and what was his
name who held the basket containing the
five loves and two fishes which fed the
multtude?"
Nobody made any effort to answer it,
and the Professor said:
at seems that nobody knows any more
about II than / do. / will have 10 call on
the person VINO submitted the question TO
come forward and and answer IT, viii
you please do so?'
To the great surprise OF the 400 people,
and OF his mother as well, Frank Jones, a
thirteen-ye ar-old schoolboy, got up and
modestly walked up the aisle. Everybody
looked at him amazed. The Professor
said:
'Did you submit this question:"
eyes, sir"
''Can you answer it?"
ayes, sir"
"well, l am sure everybody will be
glad TO hear it."
"The boy" said Frank, quietly but
steadily, "was Ben Ezra, son Of Miriam,
who was a sister Of Philip, one OF the
twelve disciples"
A murmur OF astonishment ran over the
audience. Here was something too deep
for even the pro icsscd theologians in con.
vention assembled. The Professor turned
10 the boy.
"Did you fud that in tho Biblog"
mo, sir"
"where. then, did you get III"
In Greek history"
That was the cap-sheaf. A lad OF
thirteen bowling down 400 professed
teachers In the Christian cause, and telling
them in an unassumed way that he dug
the information out OF Greek history.
think II will be well to give this boy
room TO spread himself when he becomes
a man.

TIE PSYCHE CORNER.
A New Idea for Women Who Are Not
Over-Beautiful.
From the Nelc York Star.

From the Ne,C York Star
The newest tning in the way Of household
ornamentation, decoration aud coziuoss is
the Psyche corner. You do not know what
it is, nor why it is csllef the Psyche corners
Why not a Psyche corner as well as a
Psyche OF or Psyche mirrorl Is not
Psyche the soul, and why should tue name
not mean, III connection with the corner,
the soul of beauty 1t does Tae c0tncr is
beautiful, soulful, and when properly filed
1T is filled full with the beauty of beauti-
full oman.
A Psyche corner is first of all corner, if
you choose to have it corner, or it Is an
alcOve; but if you have no available corner,
and no alcove, thea you must arrange dra-
peries SO that they simulate one OF ese
tn ngs. If it is an alcove made by bay
WINDOW, then the light must be very subtly
arranged suit the complexion of the
modern Psyche who is to fill the niche, and
basket OF flowers must hang from the
ceiling. But if there is no window, then
the wall or walls are covered with mIrror1
hung about with RIGA d. aperIes, and tiny
antique lamp that burns perfumed oil
hangs from the ceiling in place of the
fiowe s. The only piece of furniture in this
alcove is divan, and divan such as is not
seen in every house. 1t is long, 1t is low, ii
is broad, and it is soft; it is covered with
soft sllken eastern stuff, about which
chngs the faint odor OF some
Arabian perfume, and it is heaped
up with pillows. These pillows are of diff
fsrent sizes. Some are square and some are
oblong, aud they are covered with materials
of different colors; but the tlnts are har-
moniouS and blending, and the pillows are
all as soft as eiderdown can make them. Ii
front Of this delicious divan are fur rugs
and mure cushions. Such is a Psyc g
curner prepared for occupancy. Here, the J.,
the fashionable beauty REGIMES on her divan
amid her many pillows, a perfect picture in
a perfect frame. Ii there are otuer women
in the room they receive small attention
from the men, VINO flock to the dIvan. for
the occupant has a decided advantage oyer
all the other omen present.
A good many wo nen who are not beau
ties Lave set up such a corner, for it is the
most becoming thing in the world, making
plain woman look almost beautiful.

words, the enterprise is now beyond the

A PECULIAR POINT OF Law.
Can Babe Recover Damages for In
juries Received Ee.ore Birthp


Jurle5 Received Eco Birth?
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
It's well known saying among lawyers
that there's nothing new in law, and that
in every case, no matter how strange and
peculiar it may be, there can always be
found somewhere in the musty law books a
precedent that will govern it in reaching u
judicial decision. Lawyer P. F. Rother-
mel, however, has evolved legal conun-
drum that is the talk of the bar and which,
probably before it is settled, will be the
cause Of much discussion among the vari-
GUS law jodrna of tais country and Eng
land, as the legal principles underlying the
course Of justice of both countries IRE the
same. The question which the judges Of
the common pleas curt are called upon to
puzzle over is whet Ier child can recover
for personal injuries received before its
birth. Mr.. Rothermel brou ght his suit yes
terday. He represents the infant child of
Mary Jones, and the suit is against the Sec
ond aud Third Streets Passenger Railway
Company.
Mrs. Jones, in November, 1887, while in
a car Of that line, was Jared aud received
permanent injuries to her spine because of
llisioA of the car with a passing wagoA
She brought suit against the railway COM
pany and recovered verdict for 81, $50
Six months after the accide 1t her child was
born, and ever since has been a sufferer
from fits and spinal trouble. The faculty
of a prominent medical school has examined
it aud t"ey are unanimous in their opinion
that the sutferlngs I'd helpless condition of
the infant are the result of injuries received
at the same time with the mother. The
railway company is sued for damages done
to the child, and as the i juIies are perlna-
nent, If a verdict should be recovered
against it, it probably viii be for hand
some sum.
In the history of the law there is no
record Of any case havi g ever been brought
similar to this one. 1t is a well-settled
principle, however, that an unborn child
can become entitled to an inheritance and
enter into the possession and enjoyment of
it after birth, but whether SUIT can be
brought for any other purpose such
infant is question that all tie legal books
are dumb upon. The trial of the case will
be watched with great interest by the bar,
in lew of the move l questions of law which
have been raised by Mr.. Rothermel.

Whittier We Are Tending.

From the Boston Progress
The eloquent Patrick Henry said: eve

Look al tIe past:
When Egypt went down, 8 per cent of
Der ID puation owned 90 per cent. Of her
wealth. Tue people were starved to death.
" hen Bah ylol went down, 2 per cent Of
her population owned all the wealth. The

When Persia went down, 1 per cent Of
her population owned the land.
W en- Rome went down, 800 men owned
all the known world.
For the past twenty years the United
States has rapidly followed in the steps Of
these old nations. Here are the figures:
In 1850, capitalists owned 3711 per cent.
Of tue nations wealth.
In 1870 they owned 80 per cent.
