Alter uundreds OF Years.

In the year 400, or thereaboutS
workmen were employed TO put choir
stalls in Lincoln cathedral and were
told in the early English vernacular of
the day to hurry the job up, as several
big functions were soon to come off.
But lots of things happened; money
got to be exceedingly scarce, aud the
men weren't paid very promptly. Al
though there were no Knights Of Labor
then, human nature was pretty much
the same as it is now, and the men
knocked of, remarking, mo pay, nc
work.
The clergy were so busy running the
county political machine that they
didn't have time to arrange the mat
ter, and the finishing of the stalls was
postponed from time TO time until the
present day. At last, however, dear
and chapter think they see their way tC
complete this Fifteenth century job
and are calling for estimates from wood
oarvers. England is little slow, but
she does get there after few centuries

Crowds If the lowest Of the low

Since that time, Sunday morning

each morning about the prison anC
execution place, singing, shouting
fighting and using profane Ian
guage. Yesterday morning tho
crowd was more riot0us and often
siye than usual. Consequently th'
police were compelled to charge tb'
grounds, making many arrests ant

The wicked nnsom Pin.

AS every one knows, in the early days
of Methodism a considerable degree of
strictness was maintained In regard to
the wearing Of jewelry or costly attire.
An eminent divine of that church gives
an amusing incident. A preacher had
Just gone to his new charge and was in
the midst of his sermon when woman
rose and went out, slamming the door
with unnecessary violence. OF course
he supposed he had said something
which gave olfense, but on making in
quiries he learned that the woman left
because ''the minister wore bosom
pin" The fun of il was that he had
driven 20 the service over bad roads
and one drop Of mud had settled on his
immaculate shirt bosom deceiying the
tender conscience of the good sister. -

A Boy Almost Swallowed by Python.
At Judah, a village six miles from
Muka, a man and his son, aged from
ten to twelve years, were sleeping in
their house inside a mosquito curtain.
They were on the floor near the wall.
In the middle Of the night the father
was awakened by bis son calling out.
The lamp was out, and the father
passed his hand over his son, but found
nothing amiss, so he turned over and
went to sleep again, thinking the boy
was dreaming.
Shortly afterward the boy again
called out, saying that crocodile was
taking him. This time the father,
thoroughly aroused, felt again, and
found that a snake had closed his jaws
on the boys head. He then pried open
the reptiles mouth and released the
head of his son, but the beast drew the
whole of his body into the house and
encircled the body of the father.
He was rescued by the neighbors,
who were attracted by the cries for
help of the terrified couple. The snake,
when killed, was found to be about fif-
teen feet long The head and forehead
of the boy are encircled with punctured
wounds produced by the python's teeth.
