JUSTICE NEVER SLEEPS.

An Ohio solomon Proves the Fact 90 nm
Obstinate Prisoner.
While at the post-office In an Ohio
village heard the report that a muir
derer had been captured, and so l fol-
lowed the crowd 70 the lookup to learn
more about ii. There found prison
er whose every appearance proved the
professional tramp. He was about forty
years of age. very cool, and he greeted
the charge of murder with a laugh. In
n short time he was taken before n JUS
tice of the peace for examination, and I
found seat in the crowd. One look at
the Justice satisfied me that he realized
the awful gravity of the situation and
felt the foundation stone of the
United States resting on his broad
back.

Etiquette Is the very life and health
OF court 1t Is observed even la the
arrangements OF seats On each aide OF
the small low dias. intended exclusively
for royalty, are rows of chairs which,
was told, we're definitely and clearly as
signed, not by Law, but by absolute al
though unwritten custom. 70 the differ
ent orders In the social scale who accept
the Queens invitation. No one but
those prescribed might occupy them.
Thus on one side are Duchesses and
Marchionesses; on the other, Ambassa-
dresses and ladies OF the Corps Dipio-
mAtiqne. IL was my good fortune TO
witness very pretty and graceful
little ceremony in connection
with these distinctions, when
n young and beautiful bride arrived,
who. within the last few months, hnd
become q Duchess This was her iirst
appearance as such at court ball, and
she was making her way diftidently to-
ward the position 70 which her newly
acquired rank entitled her when the
whole of the Duchesses present rose
simultaneously TO greet their sister
peeress and 10 receive her into their
circle.
What makes the court ball so we'll
worth seeing Is the fact that almost
every body In the room has some WE'LL
grounded claim to distinction. My own,
viii admit was but reflected lustre,
and entered paradise under the wing
Of others, like the rest of the debutantes.
But these others represented all that Is
most notable and prominent in London
Social rank of all the higher grades was
fully represented, wealth where it was
associated fmeritorious money-getting,
distinguished service 10 the State, and
high professional repute. Nothing
proved this better than the brilliant dis
play of decorations, the constellation OF
stars, crosses and medals, all attesting
the presence of every degree of merit,
and every form of celebrity. Little less
distinguished but from extreme contrast
was the plain. almost homely, black
dress suit of the American Minister,
who, of course, wore no decorations
whatever. He was the only man there
thus simply attired, the type OF great
Republic which Acknowledges no kind
of distinction but that OF personal merit,
and perhaps, so my father says, thinks
more OF such baubles than the most aris-
tocratie nation in the world.-Murray s

THE CHURCH AND THE LODGE.

Alarm at the Inroads Made Upon Re-
liEion BY secret Organizations
What shall be the attitude of the
church toward the secret orders which
have multiplied SO rapidly throughout
the country during the last few yearsl
With many OF our churches no problem
Is more serious, or beset with greater
complications The problem would be
simplified Somewhat If these organiza-
tons were made up entirely of men
who have professed no allegiance 10
the church, but the place which the
lodge holds in the affections of many a
church member Is what gives rise to
great anxiety. Sad though the confes-
sion Is, II must be acknowledged that
some men whose names are on the
church roll habitually give precedence
10 the secret society over the church
IL the meetings conflict the successful
competitor for their presence is the
/ former They have no time to spare
for the great religious gatherings like
those at Saratoga, but they viii go
long distance to be present at n con-
elave of their fraternity.
/ At the meeting of the Vermont Con-
/ gregationalists at Rutland the subject
aroused the liveliest discussion of the
whole session. Resolutions mildly dep
recating the absorption of some Chris
I tians in such interests were set one
side, because a few thought that the
formal protest would be considered
declaration of war, and would embar-
rass them in their efforts TO counteract
the baneful influences of ase societies
Yet not man who spoke failed to ad-
NIT that Christian concerns in his own
community were suffering on account
Of them Several who live i'm towns of
only a few thousand inhabitants re-
ported from twenty to forty thriving
orders
! We believe that Vermont is not ex-
ceptional in this respect. The lodge
using the term to include the meetings
of the various secret orders-will be
found strongly intrenehed all through
the country, growing in numbers and
power and everywhere detaching the
devotion of Christian men from the
church, and too often, we fear, from
the straightforward service of their
master. Recent figures, carefully conn
piled, show that Boston has 243 church.

The many accidents which have
been caused by the ignition of alcoholic
yapors discharged during the operation
of ofvarnishing the interior of beer casks,
which arise from the exposure of the

vented. The ordinary lanterns used are
being replaced by the electric light. An
incadescent light of small candle power
is surrounded by strong iron frame,
which protects the lamp without OBJ

M. Trojanowski, a Polish chemist,
has discovered what he claims to be a
substitute for gum arabic, by boiling
one part of fiaxseed with eight parts of
dilute sulphuric acid in eight parts OF
water until the mixture, which at first
thickens, becomes quite fluid. The
compound is then strained through mus
lin and four times its volume of strong
alcohol is added. The precipitate after
being filtered, washed with alcohol and
carefully dried, produces a clear gum
devoid of all taste or odor. Thirty
grains, it is said, are sufficient emul-
sion for an ounce of cod liver oil. The
value of this invention will, OF course,
depend on how far this new article can
be relied on as substitute for the orig
inal, and the cost at which it can. be
produced for the market.

The Tramp wa. shocked.

He was persistent street beggar; his
beat was on Van Buren, street near
Clarke he would hang on to a man for
half block persistently asking for a
dime with which to pay for his lodging.
There happened along couple OF well
dressed newspaper men, who to all APP
pearances seemed to own the town. The
beggar stepped out from his dark corner,
squared himself before the two men, and
was about to present his accustomed
plea, when the nearer of the two sud-
denly faced the tramp and said:
Say, friend, gimme dime to get a
drink, for I'm so blanked hungry that
don't know where I'm going to sleep to-
night"
The professional beggar first looked
puzzled. then amused, then gave two or
three convulsive gasps and fell in q fit

Persons who have never been trained
10 walk fast generally quicken their
gait by bending forward and lengthen-
ing the stride, at the same time bend
Ing the knees very much at each step.
II Is pretty safe to say that no one can
possibly adopt this style and keep a
fair walk at faster gait than six miles
an hour. The fast walker must keep
himself erect, his shoulders back and
chest thrown out. He must put down
his forward foot and heel first, and
with the leg straight lie must take
strides so quick that they look short
He must, If he expects to get n good
stride, work his hips considerably, over
coming the sidewise tendency OF the
lip movement by a compensatory
swinging of the arms. The length of
stride in fast walking is astonishing to
those who look at it-Harper's Weekly.
