sessions held in Cushel the representa-

ceeded against weekly tenant named
MIR. Frank Dryer for possession of .
weekly tenement. situated in William
street, for nOn-pIyment OF rent.
The defense get up was that Mr.. Kyle
had left Dwyer the house. together

In his room, but. notW outstanding this
contention. the Justices gave a decree
for possession. Before the eviction
Dwyer, better known as Frankly
Doodle" made preparations on q
somewhat extended scale TO barricade
the place.
On Monday morning the town bailih
proceeded with party OF police to
William street to carry out the order
of the magistrates. The house, as
already stated, was barricaded,
'Franky" making his appearance at
one of the windows, shouting:
You can't evict me out of the coffin.
j will go into the coffin. and you
must put me out. coffin and all"
After some further parley on the
part of ''Franky" and the police, he
agreed TO give up possession, but only
on condition that he should be evicted
while in his coffin. The key of the
door was then thrown down, and the
barricades being removed, the bailiffs
and the police, entering at once, pro-
ceeded to put "Franky" out, whom
they found still lying in the coffin.
Owing, however. to the stairs being
so narrow they had to put the coffin
with its living inmate out through
one of the windows. The sight was
certainly a novel one. and not without
its amusing aspect-bailiff and police
lowering an implanted and open coffin,
within which was stretched, or rather
reclined, "Franky," in excellent health
and wearing a high silk hat, around
which was twined an old white veil.
AS he descended he protested to the
assembled crowd against his illegal
eviction" but if one might judge from
the boisterous laughter that was heard
on all sides the spectators seemed
greatly to enjoy the scene. As soon
as the coffin reached terra firma the
"boys," who seemed inclined for more
fun, raised it up. placed it on their
shoulders. and proceeded mp the main

III a horse shows signs of stubborn
ness or contrariness. just get mad your
self. and you can rest assured you are
fixed for the rest OF the day, as long as
you want to keep it up Horses, like
men, are generally set in their ways,
and when horse with only moderate
sense gets into trouble with man with
only n moderate sense the two gener-
ally have a monkey and parrot time,
from morning till night. Well-bred
horses are seldom stubborn and unruly,
and in this respect there Is a striking
analogy between horses and men.
Horses dOcile, ObeGient and tractable
in the hands of one man are vicious
and unruly in the hands of another.
The reason is, the one knows how to
manage them. the other does not. Bad
dispositions are generally the result
of bad handling. A few slapS and jerks,
accompanied by a little sharp talk or
few fierce yells, get the most gentle
horse clear beside himse and ready

from the outside world as did the
famous Major Cole meeting, but this
probably is due to the fact that the
newspapers have not given them so
much publicity as was the case during
the meetings mentioned, rather than
to any lack of interest in themselves.
The conversions have not been as
large in round numbers as was the
case at that time either, but this can
be attributed to the methods invoked
Iather than through ack of faithful
and careful admonition. In the for
mer case, there was strong desire to
touch the emotional nature through
the medium of appropos, anecdotes
and pointed illustrations, rather than
by the safer and better appeal to the
reasoning faculties and the intellectual
vivifcstion of divine truths and the
result, undoubtedly, as to the masses,
had a larger and more definite exam
pie In the computative. We say as
to the masses advisedly, for without
doubt the majority of the famous
"two thousand" who saw tine error
of their way and profesed to
a desire for something better than
they had known" in Cole rival came
from class who belong to the people
and who are swayed by their emotions
into any field which may for the time
powerfully appeal to them. Not
that in the instance mentioned, it was
not right and proper and to be de-
sired that they should be so swayed
for-as some writer puts it, it is bet
ter that good thought should be
half born than not to have been born
at all-but the question arises, would
it not be better to convince and con-
vert the few rather than to apparently
convert the many without actually
convincing them. Inthe former case,
the churches are built up on a basis
which defes time or circumstances to
overthrow, and the cause of religion is
given a motor which leads on to TIE
undying faith which reaches beyond
the mortal and environs the immortal,
in the latter, there is a temporary
and spasmodic attempt to grasp a
material presence rather than a
spiritual one, and after cropping help
lessly and feebly, there is retrospect
i've step and the estate of the mat
at last is worse than al
the first" Enthusiasm as to methods is
of course to be desired, but such en-
thusiam should not merely appeal to
the emotional nature and exclude the
intellectual undoubtedly, and it is a
great step foreward that this is
becoming a recognized fact in revivals
and that those which are now in pro.
gress in this city have adhered TO it.

On his last birthday, a month or two
ago, a youngster IN knickerbockers
who lives in the East End received
from his father q silver watch, the
price of which, it is safe to say, did
not exceed $15. 1t will not surprise
you to hear that the boy took the
watch to pieces after" it had burned in
his pocket but three days. When
every wheel lay in his hand the boy
naturally fell to thinking how he
might put the watch in running order
again. He must be something of q
mechanical genius, for no succeeded
in getting the dismembered works in
side the case in some sorto shape. It
Is hardly a reflection on the bows
skill, either, that after the mechanism
was put together it failed to respond to
the winding stem. But the boy perse-
vered. He detected the root of the
trouble in the balance wheel, which
seemed to interfere with other parts of
the setting. So at the balance wheel
he tinkered, until to his unfeigned as
constituent, after he had lacked up the
wheel with a bandage of cotton
thread, tho watch began to tick again.
