Not the MAN for Stockton.

The name Of the Rev. D. L. Munro,
Of Stockton, has been stricken from
the roll of the Presbytery. Mr.. Munro
is the unfortunate man who took
the maxims of the New Testament
literally and, having committed a
grave fault, arose before the congrega-
tion confessed it and asked forgive
ness. He got what is known in the
language OF the unregenerate as the
" q. B." He mistook the age. The
congregation of the period wants its
pastor, if he have wandered from the
straight path, to cover up his tracks
and not have a scandal over il. In
fact they often stand to help him to
cover said tracks from the prying and
unsympathetic eyes Of outsiders. The
eleventh commandment is, "Don't be
found out" What could be thought OF
the Rev. Mr.. Munro for actually Civ
ing himself away? What his con-
gregation thought was that he was not
the man for Stockton; and we agree
with them.
We are interested now to know what
will be done with the candid old lady
who arose in her place when Mr..
Munro had finished his startling con-
fession, and stated that she herself had
often felt the promptlngs of evil-doing
so graphically described by her be-
loved pastor, and she hoped her
bretheren and sisters would think
none the worst Of him. for itl-Carson
Appeal.

A Brief wedding.

A certain Georgia editor, who is
also a real estate agent, a building
and loan association director, an at
torney at law, clerk of the town coun-
ell and pastor of the village church,
was recently asked to marry couple.
He was in a great hurry and the
couple surprised him in the middle of
a heavy editorial on the tariff. "Time
is money!" said he, without looking
up from his work. "Do you want
herr" The man said yes. And do
you want him?" The girl stammered
an affirmative. Man and wife,"
cried the editor. Gone dollar.

Ina Omaha church recently Sam
Jones shouted: els there a man pres
ent who never spoke cross word to
his wife?" The silence was becoming
oppressive. People looked here and
there. Every husband present wanted
to get up but did not dare to. But the
sadness that had possession of Jones'
face vanished a moment later when a
round-face, good-natured man rose
from his seat. Thank God" ex-
claimed Sam there is one man who
never spoke a cross word to his wife %
The good natured man smiled bland
smile and said: No sir, l never
did. I'm a bachelor" Then he put
on his hat and calmly walked out Of
the door.

whats the Matter Now.

Our Washington dispatches to-day
state that Senator Stewart has intro
duced bill in the Senate authoriz-
ing the free and unlimited use of
silver as money!" What the dickens
is the old fellow driving at now9 None
of your funny work, Senator. The
people OF Nevada want nothing but
the straight business. Free and un-
limited coinage OF silver is what they
want. Once in the shape OF coin, its
free and unlimited use will only be
restricted to those who can't get hold
OF any Of it to spend.-Virginia Chron-
icle.

The Reaction I'm silver.

The London Bulletin comments as
follows on the silver situation: Mr..
Leach, director OF the United States
Mint, has been letting the cat out of
the bag. According to him, it ap-
pears that before the passing Of the
new Silver Act several syndicates
were formed to buy up silver, in order
subsequently to unload it upon the
Treasury at top figures; and, in order
to make assurance doubIy sure, shares
in such speculations were given
gratuitously, with guarantees against
loss, to members Of Congress who
agreed to assist the plans of the gamb-
lers. The Act, as we know, passed all
right, but it had just the opposite ef-
feet from what was anticipated. For
merly the exports Of silver from the
States largely exceeded the imports.
This year, on the contrary, the inn
ports have much exceeded the ex-
ports

All About a Man,

The Women's Christian Temper
ance Union Of Oakland has been keep
ing tally of the women and girls who
frequent the side-entrance saloons
OF that city. In asking the Oakland
Council to revoke the license OF saloons
selling liquor to the women and girls,
a committee of the Union said about
the Louvre that one Sunday night
about two weeks ago two girls, who
are seen in the best of society and
whose parents are among the ultra
respectable class OF Oakland, went
into the Louvre with young man.
The girls became involved in dispute
over the young man, and before the af-
fair ended they each attacked the other,
tore each others hair and scratched
each others face.

Nevada City Transcript; On Fri.
day as the Nevada City stage was
coming down Washington grade, the
leather came off one of the brakelocks.
The horses had no breeching on and
the stage pushed down on the wheel
ers, causing the team to run. Grissel
saw the danger, and told John Nc
Bean, who was on the box with him
to jump. Mr.. Mclean obeyed and
and landed without injury. When
the animals had ran about one-eighth OF
mile Grissel reined them into the
inner bank, tipping the stage. He
was hurled forward among the horses
who had fallen, but was not hurt.
The only passenger inside was q
Chinaman and when the stage had
crushed over upon its side, popped
his head up through the opening on
top and asked in astonishment,
Wha's malla?"

years imprisonment for criminal as
suit upon the person of Miss Alice
Peace. In the sentence Judge Spen-
Ger said: "The Court is satisfied that
