which did not wish to get something for nothing.
 There are probably few churches in any city whose doors are more besieged by theee wealthy worhipers in forma pauperis than St Thomas church. For it has for them a threefold attraction-beautiful music, fash ionable and wealthy congregation, and an efez quent preacher. It is not strange thatthe su-> -> perintendent has gotten somewhat out of pa- tience in having to deal a1every Sunday morning with a Lazarus5 clothed in purple and fine linen standing at Dlve's door waiting for an invi- tation. We have not word of justification or apology for the spirit of exclusiveness in the church of Christ. But the church of Christ cannot hope to do much good spiritu- ally to men and women who habitually live on their neighbors.
 ANoLD SLAVES PREoIO us SECRET He knew of she Existence of a Silver
 Mine and Bequeathed the Secret to
 HIS Son.
 Silver mining is to be begun in the noun tains in West Virginia as soon as the wealth. CT will permit. In connection with the be- ginning of this industry there is an interest," ting and somewhat unusual story. Almost from the period of the first settlement of the country there has beena popular belief that a silver mine of considerable richness existed somewhere in the middle mountains, but all though searching parties have trampled over almost every foot of the territory, beginning their operations long before the war, no trace of the vein was ever found by white men. About 1858, however, slave named Cater accidently found the silver bearing ledge, and took the story to his master, wills the offer to reveal the location if he could be assured the freedom of himself, wife and son. The master, thinking it was only a ruse on the north, refused to take any stock in the aI-- legged discovery, and the John Brown raid, together with the outbreak of the war, caused the silver legend to be completely lost sight of. Gaiter and his family moved to Mount Pleasant, Penn, where he died few years ago, but not before he had confded his secret to his son Henry. Henry made number of trips to the secret mine, and se- cured consid erable quantity of the metal. A shert time ago he visited this place and entered into negotiations with local capital ists. They were 50 impressed with his story that they consented to purchase 8 large tract of wild land in the mountains @ few miles south of the town. As soon as that was &C., complished they entered into an agreement with Cater to give him one-fourth of the net proceeds of the mine. This Gaiter as- sented to, and the old slaves's son is now here overseeing the prepartian of the pa- pers. The company formed has an ample backing, and active operations will be begun as soon as the agreements are cou- pleted and signed. Gaiter has with him a silver brick and number of specimens of ore taken from the mine, and the rock is rated at an exceptional richness. The affair has created much excitement since it became public.

THE PREsIBENT,S MESSAGE.
 The new Presidents message will be atten- lively read. And those who read it will be compelled to feel that the President is fit for his office. There have been few Presi- dents messages in the history of the country weightier than this.
 One of the first notable sentences in the message is: ''I have altogether rejected the suggestion of special executive policy for any section oi our country" And here is something which could hardly be said better or more strongly: If our great corporations would more scrupulously observe their legal obligations and duties they would have less cause to complain of the unlawful Gmita- tions of their rights, or of violent interfer- ence with their operations. The community that by concert, open or secret, among it's citizens, denies to portion of its members their plain rights under this law, has served the only safe bond of social order and pros- perity. The evil works from @ bad center both ways. It demoralizes those who prac- tice it and destroys the faith of those who suffer by it in the efficiency of the law as a -safe protector. The man in whose breast that faith has been darkened is naturally the subject of dangerous and uncanny sug- gestions. Those who use unlawful methods if moved by no higher motive than the sel6shness that prompts them may well stop and inquire what is to be the end of thisa
 The President plainly and clearly defines the foreign policy of this government This part of the message is strong, and cannot be misunderstood.
 All the osiceholders, officeseekers, and all interested in the way the business of the country is dene will read what the President has to say concerning public office carefully. He declares that honorable party service will not be esteemed by him disqualification for office, but in no case will it be allowed to serve as a shield of official negligence, incompetency or delinquincy. He does moi repeat President Cleveland's mistake in mak- ing big promises to advance civil service reform, but he hopes to do something tc advance it. This is both modest and wise. Concerning ballot reform the President says: The man who has come to regard the ballot box as juggler's hat has renounced his allegiance. Let us exalt patriotism and moderate our party contentious. Let those who would die for the flag on the field oi battle give better proof of their patriotism and higher glory to their country by pro noting fraternity and justice. A party sue 1 cess that is achieved by unfair methods ol I by practices that partaks of revolution ii ! hurtful and evanescent even from @ party ' standpoint.
 We find no promise in the message not te | be candidate for second term. It would be we'll for the retiring President if he hae | let this delicate matter alone.

A Glass of Weli-tO-do People Who

 From the Christian Unioh.l
 There are in all our larger towns and cit ies, and notably so in New York. certain class who live on the churches without contributing anything to their support. They know that churches need support, can- not be maintained without it; that coal, gas, interest on money invested, salaries for sex- ton, choir, clergyman, all must be paid for, in coin of an earthly kingdom. They believe, theoretically, that the laborer is worthy of his hire. They would disdain to live physically or even intellectually on the charity of their more generous neighbors. But they do not hesitate at all to live spirit ually upon their charity. They take no pew; pay ro rent, make no systematic free-will offspring. They go from church to church as the fancy seizes them on Sunday morn- ing, and are generally the first ones to ob- feet if collection is taken up. If they were poor, the church would cordially vel come and provide for them. It is not true that the churches, even of the aristocratic quarter. of New York city, are closed against the poor But these are not poor. The self supporting, elf-respecting mechanic and hard-Work1ng waee-earner is not to be found among them. They live in the great hotels, the expensive boarding houses, the aristocratic flats; and the chronic question every Sunday at breakfast is: Where shall we go to chureha If they came for spiritual advantage, or even re- ceived such advantage though they did moi come for it, the churches would, though somewhat less cordially, welcome and pro vide forsthem. But they never come for spirit ual benefit, nor get it when they come. They l are drawn by curiosity; they remain to criti | else. They are this:Sunday at St.-to heal the famous rector; next Sunday at St. ts hear the famous musid; Sunday after nex | at St.-to see the fashionable congregation l We have heard of young man who deliber ately contrived to get himself regularly in vited to dinner by his friends in order tt save his board.

It is related that Benjamin Johnson owns farm in Rush Valley, Utah, upon which he has just discovered a mine of natural shoe blacking. An analysis of this peculiar ma- terial shows that it contains 16 per cent. carbon. 35 per cent. aluminum and the re- mainder clay When taken out the material is moist and soft, and when used as a shoe blacking produces fine polish which is not easily destroyed.

Resk forWomen.

Many women never rest. They seem not to understand what rest, real rest, means. To throw one's self down with newspaper or book is not rest; it is only change of occu- patton. To sit down and keep the fingers flying over some sort of fancy work, as if one were pursued by 8 demon of unrest certainly not rest. But to lie in full length on hard surface, arms extended at the sides, head back, with no pillow, eyes closed, all cares and worries dismissed, this is rest; this will smooth away wrinkles in the face and in the temper; this will give air of repose to the tired, anxious, nervous woman; this will take away many an ache, and straighten out the rounded shoulders and craned out necks.

 A Famous Trio-Phillips, Motley, and
 Appleton.
 [George William Curtis in Harper's Magazine for
 March
 They were all Boston boys, and neighbers, playmates, and constant comrades. Apple ton was man of remarkable wit and quaint originality, with strong literary and artistic tastes, which, however, did not reach the point of high creative power. sybaritic temperament, favored by prosperous circun- stances, held him satisfied all his life within the conservative circle of the most delightful social companionship, in which the wonder was that the latent forces of his nature took no definite and enduring torm, so that ''Tom Appleton" remains only marvellous mem ory, man tenderly beloved in life. and now affectionately remembered.
 But in him as in the others were the stern old Puritan conscience and truthfulness, a scorn of dishonor and indirectness, yet blended with such suav1ty and accomplish ment, such grace of miad and rectitude of life, and delight in refined enjoyment, that in no other group of friends in New England probably were the characteristic and enga- eing qualities of Puritan and cavalier more happily combined. Their osreers were wide ly severed, although Boston was always their home. Phillips passed on to the renown of a great orator and leader in one of the mo- blest in history; Motley won the highest laurels of literature in the works which record the defence and development of liberty in Holland; Appleton, placidly drifting with the current of his time, watched with the keenest interest and admi- ration the course of both, and if perhaps he sometimes felt, with Brownings Piotor Igno- tus,
 could have painted pictures like that youths men praise so,
 there was no hint in word or manner that he regretted any prize he had not won. Long after the college days, and after Motley's first unprosperous literary ventures and his diligent study in Europe, he sent Appleton the sheets of his sfHistory of the Dutch Re- public" Appleton received them in New port, where he read them with delight, and ore morning, bursting into the room of a friend, he exclaimed with unwonted enthu- siasm. "pve read it all, and by love, Motley has done it at lastl"
