community cannot be fully appreciated at the
present hour, but the impress OF his lite and
influence will remain with the generations
with which he lived and labored. This event

Little Willie Price, q lad who, by bis
incorrigible behavior. has earned the
reputation of being beyond reclamation,
is now at his old home in the Building of
the Boys and Girls Aid society on Baker
street.
The boy was born in San Francisco In
1877. At the age of S years he wasa well
known character on the streets, where he
was accustomed to appear, ragged, dirty
and shivering with cold, pleading for
aims with a face SO piteous and q man.
ner so deeply touching that none could
Withstand the appeal.
In 1881 q lad named Willie Dickinson,
about the age of the hero of this story,
suddenly disappeared from the home Of
his parents at Commonwealth, Wis. The
heartbroken parents. who were very
wealthy, advertised far and wide, and
offered large amount of money for the
discovery and return of their child
Young Price saw the advertisement, and
while under arrest on charge of street
begging at Los Angeles proposed to the
policeman to personate the lost Wiscon.
sin lad if the officer would do the rest of
the business necessary to gain the reward
for his return. The scheme looked plau.
sible and the officer went into it.
A short time after Mrs. Dickinson ar
rived at Los Angeles to claim her long
lost Willie. at sight of her the young
impostor rushed into her arms, exclaim.
r1.,A
have come to take your little Willie
away from these bad men. Kiss your
Willie, mamma" and the hardened rep
rebate actually wept. The overjoyed
mother covered her supposed child with
kisses. She bought him new and ele.
giant clothing, loaded him with presents
and began hasty preparations for their
return to Wisconsin.
The police officer, feeling secure in the
possession of the reward money, con-
ceived the idea of defrauding the boy out
of his share of it. Innocent little Willie
was. however, too cunning for his part
ner in crime. He put 4 damper on this
little scheme by boldly declaring his
identity to Mrs. Dickinson, who was
shocked into fainting fit by the start
ling revelation.
You don't come any of your little
games on dis duck" he said, addressing
the astonished officer. I'm just plain
ordinary Willie Price, of San Francisco,
OATS who am; dye see?'
The disappointed woman returned to
her eastern home and young Price was
sent to this city and placed in the Boys
and Girls Aid society. On Jan. IA he
scaled the walls and escaped, and was
not seen again until yesterday, when he
was recaptured and sent back.-San

HEATING BY STEAM.
One of the Most Int. esting Discoverie

One of the Most Int. esting Discoveries
Made at / 'mpeii.
That steam heating is not new ap-
pears from remarks made by Mr.. George
FL. Babcock before the American Society
of Mechanical Engineers some time ago.
Mr.. Babcock cited the fact that when
at Pompeii he found that the old Roman
baths there were heated by steam, and
heated in a better and more scientific
manner than is practiced at the present
time. The walls were double, and the
steam, of course not above atmospheric
pressure. was carried up through these
walls all around the room. The walls
were thus heated to temperature ap-
proXimating to that of the team, and
the occupants of the rooms were ex-
posed to a radiation from all directions.
This, Mr.. Babcock held, is the true
theory of heating, and the system of
steam heating by indirect radiation, or
heating the enveloping air only, is I'M
scientific, expensive and uncomfortable.
1t is of interest to add here that the
late Joseph Harrison, Jr., of Philadel-
phia, in delivering a lecture before the
Franklin Institute several years ago,
said that he had seen in the museum at
Naples boiler substantially of the
same construction as the modern, YER
teal, tubular boiler. This boiler was
found at Pompeii, and was made of cop
er.-Engineering and Building Record.

There is lawyer who does a GOOD

the scant respect women show toward
their names. The fact that certain
alteration takes places in the name at

fact that any legal significance can in
any case attach to the form seems to he

MAORI CHRISTIANITY.
New Zealanders Who Carried Out Scrip

New ZeaIanders Who Carried Out Scrip
ture Injunctions Literally.
A window in chapel of the Lltchteld
Cathedral has a special meaning. 1t is
one of several windows presented by the
officers and men who had served in New
Zealand, during the Maori war, in token
of their gratitude for Bishop SelWyn's
attention to their welfare in that cam
paign.
It's medallion depicting David in the
act of pouring out the longed-for water
of the well of Bethlehem" procured for
him by ''the three mighty men" at the
risk CT their lives. This medallion
commentaries the similar heroic action
of a Christian Maori, who had been
pupil of Doctor Selwyn's when he was
Bishop of New Zealand.
This Maori, Henere Taratoa, when the
war broke out, felt bound to join his
tribe. He was placed in charge OF
a fortified village known as the formida-
BILE Gate Pa" The British troops
stormed the pa and were repulsed with
great slaughter.
side the village, and one of them feebly
moaned for water. There was no water
to be had, the nearest being within the
British lines. At night this young Chris
tian Maori crept down, at the risk of his
life, within the line Of English sentries,
flied vessel with water, and carried it
back to the pa to refresh his dying enc
my's lips.
The next day the British again stormed
the place, and Henere was killed. On
his person was found the text of Holy
Scripture which had suggested the deed:
If thine enemy thirst, give him drink.
The Maories went to war to maintain
their right to territory of which they
had been unjustly deprived. Hundreds
of them had received Christianity as
taught by Bishop Selwyn, and, singular
as it may seem, tried to wage war &C
cording to Christian principles.
One day British officer, commanding
a fort on the Waikota, saw several large
canoes coming down the stream, with a
white flag flying. On stopping them, he
learned that they were from very
strong pa, up the river, and were loaded
with potatoes aud several mich goats,
as present to the British General and
his soldiers. The chiefs of the pa, hav-
ing heard that the English troops were
short of provisions, were carrying out
literally the Scripture injunction they
had learned in the mission schools: If
thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he
thirst, give him drink. '-Youth's Com
