A West Side lady recently employed a
domestic, who had never been out to
service in the city, but had worked for a
farmer. "There is one thing that you
must agree to-" said the new girl, land
that is to let Inc sit at the table with the
family" The lady was astonished, but
replied pleasantly: "All right, | will
agree to that, because your recommended
'tions are good. OF course am not used
to such thing, but we will try it." An
hour later dinner was ready and on the
table-soup, the meat course, pastry and
all together. The girl was there too
The lady of the house stepped up to
the table, removed her own plate and
knife and fork and went into the kitch-
7en. She soon came back wearing a
white apron and dainty white cap.
She never smiled, but began serving the
soup. She helped the servant first, then
her husband. The new girl" was par
;alyzed, and two minutes later volunta-
rily left the table. She cried a little bit,
but told her employer that she could see
how foolish it was for her to make such
"A request. She has developed into per-
feet Kitchen queen. "-Milwaukee Sem

An Old Boatman Killed.

HELENA, Ark, June 14.-Capt. w.
N. Halt who has been in charge of a
transfer boat at this place ever since
the line was established was killed last
night by the Waterman of the boat,
one James Woods a white man. 1t
seems that Capt Holt had occasion to
reprimand him several times for neg
lect of duty. Last night the Waterman
failed to have out proper signal lights
and Holt had some words with him
about it and finally slapped him in the
face. Woods reiterated from the
engine room " it'll the remark that he
would get even with him.
A few minutes afterwards the boat
landed at the foot of the incline on
the Arkansas side, and Capt. Holt

Going to Jerusalem TO welcome Cnr1St.
The Rev. W. P. Brown, prominent
Latter Day Saint minister, formerly Of
Harvey, Kan, now of Richmond, Mo-,
is in independence selling his real estate
and effects for cash, with which he pur-
poses going to Jerusalem and there wit
ness the second coming of Christ.
He says that the second coming OF
Christ is not far distant; that the Jews
are fast returning to Jerusalem, and he
takes this as indicative of the great
event He belongs to the Whitmerite
branch of the Mormon church, and has
been at Richmond studying the original

David Whitmer, who sat on one side OF

Joseph Smith, the prophet, read and
translated the Book Of Mormon on the
other side by means of the spectacles

Thummin. From this manuscript the
Rev. Mr. Brown has figured out this
great event.
He will leave his wife and three
daughters here while he goes to Jerusa

CORONATION.

Wearing the royal dignity and grace
OF babyhood, the little monarch stands
Meath fragrant shade of apple bough, his
hands
Filled with ripe gold of buttercups, his face
Glowing with love, while bending Ger the place
Where, laughingly awaiting his commands,
The sweetest flower in all these summer
lands
A little maid-leans back to his embrace.
Around her hat he sets his golden store
OF simple flowers, and then apart doth go
TO gaze and smile with happiness once more.
No sweeter crown his little queen will know,
NWhate'er the years bring. than this chaplet

Made by the loving fingers Of a child.

A BULGE on THE PREACHERS

sedalia il in the throes of a charity

the proceeds Of which were to 90
towards a city hospital. A large
number of the church m ,mbers of the
city were "in it." At almos, the last
moment the Minister'S Alliance assailed
the project on the SC re that they
could not approve of dancing. The
Bazoo defends the ball by saying that
"time and again have entertainments
at the opera house been given for the
benefit of the churches, in one of
which the minuct was danced and in
another a song and dance" While
there may be much argument ad-
duced on both sides esp cially if the
preachers drew the line only at the
ordinary charity ball"-we believe
the Bazoo in this particular instance
is correct and has not only the bulge
