The author OF this beautiful little volume mas iohs
nossessed a more than National reputation as pro

and sermons form an important Biblical htetatue'
which has become widely and profta6ly familiar 10
the Christian world, both clerical and lay Inc pec'

all that has gone before II is, as Dr. Boaiu'na''
himself expresses IT, his personal tribute 10 to
saviourp condensation of the fervor and the fri'-
age OF lifetime into one brief but eloquent panesyrc'
"The Problem is discussed IN twofod form frS',
phlosophically, allow Will you account for jesus Vi

Boardman presents with tremendous force an eptomo
of all human knowledge of the Saviour HIS character
and His mission In the second he makes most
searching and impressive personal appeal TO the reade

A person about to be married has sent
in a complaint for public consideration
against the constant neglect which the
bridegroom receives from the press, from
the friends Of the contracting parties
and often from their immediate families.
All interest centers in the bride, whose
dress is described in voluminous detail,
whose bouquet is not considered beneath
mention, and whose face, blushing be
meath her veil, is the most pleasing at
traction of the wedding.
The bridesmaids, lovely girls, iutter-
ing in dainty colors, are worth more
than "A passing notice. The ushers, the
guests, and even the %organist, are spoken
of in an appreciative manner. Some.
times there is consideration shown to the
sexton of the church. But where is the
groomI There are columns of descrip.
tions of weddings in the daily press, and
in these columns the personality of the
groom is passed over without n glimmeI
of apology.
How does the groom dress? What is
his choice of hower2 Do his gloves fit
Are his shoes of patent leather Nobody
knows these interesting details, although
they are undoubtedly important to the
neglected man. His presence is supposed
from occasional mention of the young
couple" and he probably may be seen
skulking around the corner of the pull,
pit; but he is evidently in a hurry fol
the completion of the matter. 1t is not
his occasion. Unfortunate man, he is the
chief and notable instance of Hamlet
left out of Hamlet. boston Journal.

Many are the strange conditions set down
In wills by eccentric testators. 1t is be-
cause she cannot comply with certain re
quisites that Mrs, Laura Fulton, aged
thirty, of Atchison. Kan, is unable to grasp
a fortune. She is separated from Mr.. John
C.. Fulton, who is her second husband. She
was first married to Horace II. Haffenden,
who died eight years ago. He had a
wealthy uncle named John A. Watson, Il
bachelor, who resided in London. This
uncle who was nearly eighty years old,
died in January, 1887, leaving his nephew's
widow 49, 600 in cash and $4,000 in pro-
ductive real estate. Under one of the con-
ditions of the will, however, she has as
yet been unable to get the inheritance.
This condition is that she shall be married
to an honorable man and live with him at
least one year. In case of failure to carry
out this part of the will within seven years
after the death of the ~testator the property
goes to Trinity church, London.
The marriage of Mrs. Haffenden and Mr..
Fulton occurred about a year after the
death of Watson, but they lived together
only n few months. In order to obtain
possession of the little fortune Mrs. Full
ton will have to get Il divorce from her
other man and live with him according to
the provisions of her uncle's will. Mrs.
Fulton's attorney has n certified copy of
Watson's will. He says that she can come
into full control of her portion of the es-
tate in less than three months after the
conditions have been complied with

Dreams AVE been regarded as an in
teresting subject of study ever since
scientific thought was born. Locke, the
essayist on the human understanding,
was Of the opinion that Il man did not
think at all when really asleep, while
modern investigators in this line of
research believe that thought no more
ceases during sleep than "A watch prop
erly wound runs down in the night.
According to their notion, under such
conditions the mechanical functions OF
the mind are active, though uncontrolled
by the Judgment, and thus it happens
hat ones dreams are apt to be unreason'
able and even absurd.
Could anything be more interesting
than TO trace the progress of "A dream, il
it were only possibles Think of the VA
riety of experiences through which on,
would be conveyed, untrainmeled by
the limitations of common sense which
restrict ones waking thoughts, and freed
from the moral responsibilities that en-
cumber the doings of ordinary life
Probability sets no bounds to the dream
er's vision, and even conscience is dor
mant, since the most righteous of men do
on occasions, misbehave themselves mos
shockingly in the strange Land of Nod

The detective is made the subject of all
sorts of stories-heroic, romantic, despic-
able and ludicrous. A gentleman writing
to a London paper says that as he entered
a railway carriage the other day he recog-
nized in the compartment a well known
detective. Presently a minister got in,
and, with the three locked in by the guard,
the train started. The detective was in
pursuit of a criminal who had gone by a
previous train. He began to study the
photograph of the fugitive and, of course,
was soon absorbed in it. This attracted
the attention of the minister, who present
ly observed, you have, p~erchance. lost a
dear friend2" "Dearl yes, very dear, in
deed" answered the detective. Take
comfort, brother, he has but gone BEFORE
continued the minister, who was not a
little shocked when he got for a reply:
Yes, hang him, and got three hours start
of me. But Ill follow him, If it's to Jeru-
Kalam.

1t il fun to watch the pineapple man.
He is a generous fellow, and the slabs
of pine that he cuts off and retails for n
nickel are thick and sweet, and his trade
is large.
Unto him clerks, newsboys and mil
lionaires come the livelong day to re
fresh themselves with fruit. He peels
and cuts and cuts and peels, and still the
demand continues.
A Wall street banker stops and buys a
piece; an editor refreshes his inner man
with n slab of pine; n street gamin vince
dies n nickel slice out of the old man for
a penny. An old, decrepit woman, with
n cheek as hard rs hat of the statue Of
Liberty, comes up Inc asks him for a
slice. The pineapple man looks at her a
minute, subtracts a thin slice from the
heap and gives it to the beggar, and she
goes on her way rejoicing.
AT last the curbstone merchant gets
out his dinner pail and eats n hearty
meal. 1t never occurs TO him to flavor
it with some of his luscious stock in
trade, and he goes describes.
When he is through he takes out a
very small tin pail of water and sprin-
kles some of it upon the fruit to keep it
from getting dry. Then he carefully
washes his hands in the pail, and then,
oh, heavensl he carefully covers up the
pail, as If water were precious under the
shadow of the postoifice and with the
free drinking fountain not thirty feet
awayl
Thank you, not today! l was going to
treat myself to pines, but something has
suddenly stolen my appetite away

They Are Boy Bandit. No More.

A case in the Berlin police court reports
is a remarkable instance of the c%ontagion
OF example. The stories of brigands which
have lately filled the German newspapers
seem to nave acted on the imagination of
two boys named Oscar Scheffner and
George May. They determined to become
bandits, and they prevailed on several Of
their school fellows to join them. The
average age of the band was thirteen.
They inaugurated their defiance of the law
by boldly playing truant, and then they
took refuge in the wilds of the Grunewald,
where, in true brigand fashion, they hid
themselves.
After a night passed in this fashion they
felt the pangs of hunger, and consequently
they sailed forth at an early hour and
seized the milk cam and baskets of new
rolls which had been left at the doors of
the neighboring villas. This, however,
they thought was scarcely heroic, and their
next step was to garrote an old gentleman
who was taking a morning stroll in the
park. Somehow the Berlin police got
wind OF the affair, and the juvenile bandits
were seized. They are now languishing in
grewsome dungeons, where, by means of u
cane administered at intervals, it is hoped
that they may be made aware of the his
toric fact that in northern Europe brigand-
age is an anachronism.

After travelling as a star for four years
and then as elocutionist and vocalist, her
health gave way and she went down to
Manhattan beach to ~recuperate. Several
gentlemen inquired about her at the office,
some few left their cards and one she met
and talked with in the ladies' parlur.
Finally her brother, George f. Flack, called
and went directly to her room, and as near
as can be determined this precipitated the
trouble
She and her brother declare that Clerk
Leland entered the room in a rude and in
solent manner and peremptorily ordered
her to leave the house at once. There was
a painful scene. The lady was overcome
with shame and confusion, and other
guests of the house got a little excited.
The managers were appealed to and grant
ed Miss Sterling permission to remain.
Nevertheless they stand by the clerk in the
suit. She makes the complaint of Islander,
etc, and puts the damages at $4,000.

The Blood Stamped Path Of Progress

Whenever man attempts TO improve on
nature, nature nearly always demands an
Rppeasing sacrifice of human life. Hardly
n great building has gone up, a huge
bridge SPAWNED a river or a line of trans
portHtion completed where the cement has
not been mixed with human blood. A
cable railway is being laid On Broadway,
New York, and the section bosses are hav-
ing a good deal of trouble in keeping peo-
pie away from the Enclosure along the
line. Early the other afternoon a man
was standing leaning over the Enclosure
watching the men at work between Rector
street and Exchange place. He had been
told several times to get away that the
cars coming along might run over him,
but he was bound to stay right where he
was. In n few minutes a Broadway car
came along. He tried to cross the track,
but Just as he turned around the car was
upon him. He was caught between the
inclosure and the inside of the car and
fearfully crushed. The boards had to be
torn of so he could be released.
He was taken into 81 Broadway and
placed on n lounge in IN unconscious state.
In about ten minute he regained suf-
icient consciousness to tell the officers that
his name was Cohen.
He was badly bruised about the abdo-
men and limbs and received internal in
juries. He was taken TO Chambers Street
hospital in a precarious condition.

The letter which We publish in another
column is written by a well known and
highly respected citizen OF Wyoming. As
he travels a good deal ovcrthe state he is
perfectly competent TO speak iutclligently
on the subject of cattle stealing. It will
be observed that the writer docs not
minco words. lie takes up the subject
in a decidedly cold bloodci way and at
times is frank enough to almost take
away ones breath. There is no other
way to take up this question. Il must
be presented so that ITS cDOrmIty will
be thoroughly appreciated. Wyoming
como, afford to lose the cattle herds and
yet it must do so unless means are taken
for their protection. Our correspondent
makes this poiut particularly clear and we
commend his u~tterauces to every taxpayer
in the state.
We believe that when this matter is
understood in its true light cattle thieving
in Wyoming will practically be a thing
of the past.

The couple had been married nine months
and boarded with her parents, as did some
others. He came home ut noon slightly
intoxicated, entered a room where his wife
and her younger sister were, held his wife
around the waist with one arm and fired
four shots from a revolver held in his dis
engaged hand. One shot entered her brain,
producing instant death. He fired at his
own head, failed to hit it, walked down
street till he met u policeman and surren-
dered. Her maiden name was Nina S.
Mayleld, and her sister, aged twenty and
two years younger than the victim, wit
messed the whole affair.
Crawley declares that he saw one Dolan,
n boarder, with his arm around Mrs. Craw-
ley, but Dolan has shown that he was not
in the house. While a policeman Crawley
shot and killed a negro who r ',ted ar

TOMMY FINN IN THE HOSPITAL


street, near Kossuth, Mt night, and many
petty crimes have been traced very close to
them. At length Charlie Doran was ar
rested and two policemen started u look
for Tommy Finn. He saw Patrolman
Batters nearing him and ran through an
alley, but MS the officer gained on him he
drew a32-caliber revolver and fired. Prompt
as an echo came n shot from Officer Bat
ters' 3s-caliber gun" and down went
Tommy with a bullet in his groin.
At the hospital he talked like n small
edition of Dick Turpin, Jack Shep herd
and "Billy the Kid" all in one, ''guyed"
the police and told amazing stories
Of how he had circumvented them by in
genious lodges, but just the same denied
having committed any crime in Cincinnati
1t soon transpired that he had shot at his
own pal, 3" Doran, and carved a neat furrow
in the latter's scalp. An odd feature of the
case is that all these boys are of respecta-
BILE and honest parentage.

the temper of speculation. St Paul and
Union Pacific were the only speedily ac-

the rest OF the list was materially
larger than usual of late, and the market
was certainly wilder, indicating a more

Story books for children often contain
tales of little ones being carried off by
eagles. An amendment should be had in
this regard because of the news that comes
from Alpena, Mich, where a boy and an
eagle recently had a tremendous tussle.
The lad had been disturbing the birds nest,
and after several swoops the eagle dropped
almost upon her foe. The boy grabbed the
bird by the foot and for several yards he
was carried ten feet above the ground. He
then managed to get hold OF the wings and
the two fell to the ground, the boy hanging
to his prey. The bird measures seven feet
between the tips of the wings.

never can find 'em when you van 'em,
and so tried to arrest him myself" He
then related this strange story;
He gave his name MS Patrick Spain, late
sergeant of Troop l., Fifth United States
cavalry, but retired lately by reason Of his
age. In the spring of 1890 Peter Schneider
was a private in that company and Al
Candy was the blacksmith. One night the
men had some liquor in a ravine near Fort
Sill, l. T., where they were located, and in
his joyihl way Candy perpetrated some tri-
fling joke on Schneider. The latter drew a
murderous knife, wounded one man badly
and literally cut in two the heart of the un-
fortunate Candy. Realizing the enormity
of his crime Schneider mounted his horse
and escaped into the wilderness, nor could
all the diligence of the military find him.
A few weeks ago the old sergeant en-
countered him in Los Angeles, but he es
capped. This time the ergeant determined
to have him ind he did. Schneider admits
everything and tells a strange story of his
wanderings, but claims that Candy was
aiming at him with an iron bar when
killed. lie was delivered to the military
authorities to be taken to Fort Sill.
