Flirting With Death.

Wednesday afternoon about $3.50 O'Clock, says
the Washington Star, Undertaken Harvey's
gloomy wagon drove hurriedly up to the en-
trance of a we'll known photograph gallery
and two men carried a black coffin into the
building and up TO the third floor in the opsr-
ating room. 1t was met there by the photogra-
pher and a number of newspaper men, and
shortly afterward a woman, youthful and
beautiful, clad in cashmere and lace, with
flowers at her feet and her white hands folded
peacefully across her breast. lay In the somber
box, with her long brown hair streaming over
the crumpled satin lining as pale as her cream.
tinted skin. The men stood about the coffin
whispering as the undertaken touched flower
here, leaf there, and tucked in a
grapher moved a hand out of its stiffness or
turned the face where the light would fall upon
it to better effect before the tense of the camera
1t was an uncanny scene, and if the sunshine
had not taken the chill off of the place it would
have been as ghostly and CHASTITY as a charnel
house. When all was ready the photographer
caught the picture on his plate and then the lid
OF the affair was removed for the friends of the
family to step forward and take last look at
the body, for it Immediately sat up in her case

A Lawless Congregation.

The warning factions Of the Greene square
Baptist church ara bringing the cause OF re-
ligion into disrespect in the estimation of
those Of their race who have been accus-
toned to look TO that church for guidance
in religious matters. The scenes at the con-
ference on Monday night were simply dis
graceful They were of a kind seldom seen
even in barrooms. Drunken roughs could
hardly have been guilty Of WORE conduct.
Men who profess 20 be law-abiding aud
order-loving christians showed no. respect
for the sacred character of the building n
which they were assembled. aud endsavored
to do each other all the injury they could
with their fists ald with various kinds of
deadly weapons.
The people in the neighborhood Of the
church are tired of being aanoye and dis
turbed by the rows in which the congrega-
ton frequently engages. 1t was after 2
o'clock on Monday night when the rioting
in the church was at its hight, and many
people were aroused from sleep by it. Up
to this time only members of the congrega-
ton have demanded police protection, but
now the people who live in the vicinity of
the church demand it. If the congregation
cannot conduct itself in decent and or
derby manner 1t ought not to be permit
ted TO meet. or, if it is permit
ted to nee, all who assist
in making disturbance should be arrested
and so severely punished as to deter them
from making nuisances of themselves again.
There is no reason why a whole neighbor-
hood should be kept awake the better part
of the night, every week or two, by lot of
of fighting men aud women who ought to
be at home and abed.
If there are those in the Greene Square
Baptist Church who have grievance, why
don't they state it and have it settled in a
proper. dignified and decent way. 1t is
said that there is faction in the church
that is opposed 20 the minister. II this is
the case why don't those who are dissatis-
fled either withdraw from the congregation
or prefer charges against the min
ister9 IL the charges are such as
to justify his removal, and are
sustained, there will be no difficulty in
getting rid of him. Indeed, if he has any
self-respect he would resign If shown
to be unworthy without being asked
to do so a second time. But it is
hardly probable that he will resign because
some Of his congregation are hostile to him
and want to force him out of his position as
pastor. To resign under such circumstances
would be to admit that he was either guilty
of wrong-doing Of some kind or was lack
ing in some respects as q minister

The Little White Bible.

The parents were looking through little
book store for a suitable present for their boy,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch. 1t would have to
be mex oensive, for they were poor. A little
white Bible was the thing, then. IL meant a
great deal to the mothers heart. and it some
how seemed all right to the father
II guess you're right, he said, 1T looks like
a poor sort of birthday present, but guess tbs

box, with line on the inside of the cover, "A
present from mother" Two weeks passed
away, and one day a man who worked by John S

the body of the youth found in the river last

tracery Of flowers were worn off, but line in
ink on the inside of the cover was still plain.

jury and the coroner looked at it their eyes

A Precocious Infant.

OF course there is no limit to the stories told
of bright and mischievous children, and bright
ness and mischief always, somehow, seem to
go together. have two anecdotes of little
4-year-old, who was taken to the country in the
spring to help leaven existence somewhat for
her grandmother, and at the same time gath or
a few roses for her own dimpled cheeks, says
the New York Star. The second day after the
little tots arrival from the city the grand
mother missed her great bunch of keys. Where
could they be? Nobody knew. Strangely
enough, nobody at first asked the youngster
about them, and she played with her dolls dur
ing all the excitement of the general search,
looking up occasionally in an interested way,
but saying nothing Finally some one sug-
gested that Daisy" might know where were
the keys.
20, yes: know said the child; why didn't
you ask me before?"
well, where are they?"
20, just throwed them In the rain barrel this
morning.
After the rain barrel was emptied and the
keys were recovered, Daisy" was asked what
on earth made her throw the keys in the
barrel.
81 don't know" she replied, ''unless it was
just pure cussedness. '"
And now her pious parents wonder where
she picked up this particularly apropos express
sion.
A few days later a package of brass-headed
tacks was missing. This time Daisy was
called In at once and asked IL she had seen
them.
20, yes, she said; 81 took them out and fed
them to the chicke MS"

The Paris correspondent of the London
Times sends that paper a remarkable in
stance of jury logic. Sometime ago in Paris
an entire family. named Hyam, committed
suicide to escape death from starvation.
The affair created great sensation in the
French capital, and was the talk of all
classes of people. Recently a man named
Moch killed debtor of his who refused
TO pay $3.50 borrowed money. On the trial
Moch admitted the crime. The jury, how
ever, acquitted him on the ground that he
had wife and five young children, who
would in all probability commit suicide. as
Hyam and his family did, to escape starv-
alton if Moch were convicted and executed
or Transported for life. According to this
verdict the Hyam family. by taking their
own lives, put an end to punishment for
murder in the French capital in cases in
which the murderer has a family depend
ing upon his earnings.

A Fishy story.

A J. Haskell, who lives at Greenport. L. l.,
and is one of the officers of the Mallory steam
snip Colorado, says the New York Star, con
tributes the latest and most remarkable fish
story to the already long list OF startling mar
ratives of fishermen:
while the Colorado was anchored in the
mouth of Mobile bay" he says. ION its last
voyage, under the guns Of Fort Morgan, loading
lumber for New York with the heat way no in
the ninetles, a monster fish was sighted off its
bow. A boat was lowered and man led with
the first officer in charge. A harpoon and a
good, sound rope were put on board. Then the
boat was rowed close up to the fish, and
a well-directe1 shot sent the harpoon into
its vitals. The monster sank, and the boat was
rowed back TO the ship, and the rope got on
board Fifty darkeys were set to work to pull
in le line, and the fish was brought to the top
of the water. Another rope was made fast to
him, and then the ships steam capstan hauled
the fish on deck. He measured Il feet across,
was 10 feet long, and had mouth that meas
ured Pc feet backward toward the tail On
either side of the mouth was a head with an
eye in each. The monster weighed two tons "
Mr.. Haskell added that of the scores of per-
sons who looked at the monster none had ever
seen anything like it before. This part of the
story is, probably, that which viii be most

The Tariff BIZ in Conference.

The confere lce committee on the tariff
bill has difficult task to perform. 1t won Z
find it an easy matter to reach an agree
ment on all points of difference between
the House aud the Senate. Some Of the
differences are very radical, and the prob
abilities are that the House will insist upon
the bill as it was when it was sent TO the
Senate, and the Senate will insist upon its
amendments
The sugar schedule was changed IN very
important particulars by the Senate. some
of the leading members of the republican
side of the House have already said that
they would never agree TO the changes.
Tho reciprocity amendment will also be
stoutly opposed in the House, though
it has many friends there among
the republicans. The democrats in neither
the House nor the Senate are opposed
the policy of reciprocity, but they are OPP
posed to the reciprocity amendment, because
it gives to the President the power which.
they think, congress alone has the right to
exercise. They voted against it because
they think it Is unconstitutional 1t is prob
able that they will continue to oppose it
unless it is changed to meet their views.
The Senate put binding Irvine on the free
list, and that amendment will find opposition
in the House, because it strikes at the pro-
tective principle, which the Mckinley bill is
particularly noticeable for upholding. There
are few republicans. also, who feel that it is
discriminating against the south to make
binding Irvine free and TO tax cotton ties
and jute bagging.
Congress talks about adjourning by Oct.

jourment will not take place before Oct.

Capt Ritter, a commander of one of the gun
boats that were in the harbor of San Jose at
the time Gen. Barrundia was shot to death
on the American steamship Acapulco, has
sent to the navy department an account of
the affair. He seems to have thought the in
activity of the commanders of the gunboats
in connection with the affair would be
pretty severely criticised in this country,
and so he hastened to tell the Secretary of
the Navy all he knew about it. While the
Secretary OF the Navy refuses to make
public Capt. Riter's statement, it is under
stood that he says that the commanders of
both vessels would have interfered had not
Minister Miner overridden their wishes
and personally assumed the responsibility
of delivering the fugitive into the hands of
his countrymen." 1t is certainly time that
Minister Miner should be heard from. If
he did not commit great fault then the
American people are greatly mistaken.

Was There an Understanding ?

A day or two ago it was said that Ken
nedy's bitter attack on Quay was his own
work, aud that he was led to make the at
tack by his desire for notoriety. Now a
different story is told. 1t is that Reed,
Cannon, Lodge and other leading republi-
cans who are extremely hostile to Quay,
because he succeeded in having the force
bill postponed, induced Kennedy to make
the speech.
Is there an understanding among some of
the republican leaders to get rid of Quay
Do they think he is heavier load than the
party can carry with any certainty of sue
cesss The charges that Kennedy made are
not new. They had been published long
before Quay was made chairman OF the
national republican committee. If, there
fore, there is an understanding among GER
tain of the republican leaders to get rid of
him they must feel that the Re-
publican party is much weaker than
it was two years ago. 1t carried
him then, and is it thought that it cannot
carry him nowf The truth is, probably,
that the republican leaders who want to get
rid of Quay are afraid Of his influence and
power. AS for the Republican party, il
doesn't make any difference to 1t, appar-
emily, whether its leaders are men of good
or bad repute. The charges against Quay
won't hurt him in the estimation of his
party, but they may be used by other
republican leaders, who are not in harmony
with him, to get him out of their way.
