THERE Is A Boy | CAN TRUST.

THERE Is A Boy | CAN TRUsT.-
We once visited a public school.
At recess a little fellow came up
and spoke 10 The teacher; As he
turned to 20 down the platform,
The master SAID "Thal is boy
can trust. He never failed me-"
We followed him with our eye,
and looked at him when he took
his seat after recess. lie had a
fine, open, manly face. We thought
a good deal about the masters re-
mark. What a character had that
boy earnedl He had already goi
what would be worth more to him
than a fortune. 1t would be a
passport into The best store in the
city, and, what is better, INTO the
confidence and respect of the
whole community. We wonder il
the boys know how soon they are
rated by other people. Every boy
in the neIshborhood is known, and
opinions are formed of him; he
has a character either favorable ol
unfavorable. A hoy of whom the
master can say IL can trust him
he never failed me-" will never
want employment. - American

PAPER MADE OF IRoN.-In the
great exhibition of 1851 an Ameri.
can specimen of iron paper was
exhibited. Immediately a lively
competition ensued among British
iron manufacturers as 10 the thin
ness 10 which cold iron could be
rolled. Mr.. Gillett rolled sheets
the average thickness of which
was The eighieen-hundredih part
of an inch. In other words, 1900
sheet of this iron piled one upon
tho other would only measure one
inch in thickness. The wonderful
fineness of this work may be more
readily understood when the read
er is informed that 1,200 sheets of
The thinnest tissue paper measures
a fraction over am inch. These
wonderful iron sheets we're per.
fecily smooth and easy 10 write
upon, Notwithstanding the fact
that they were porous when held
up 10 a strong light.-Chicase1 Times.

Stacked in piles were short car.
bines and rifles, such as could be
hidden under coats, shawls or

Sitting alongside The bluff in regu.

Presently a dark form slipping
from tree TO tree, from bOwlder to

the mouth of the ravine; another,
and yet another, until The whole
woods seemed to be alive with
phanlome. A wild shrek, shot,
splash into The river, and then
pandemonium for about ten min
utes. The "Slicks" had conquered
for once. 1t was a hand to, hand
fight. The ''Pony Boys" awoke
amid the farie and smoke to find
that the enemy was upon them.
They rushed into The shallow river
and scattered as fast as they could.
They nearly all escaped. No one
was killed outright, though many
were wounded, Some of the fu-

Adam until they found succoring
friends. All The horses and a
great deal Of money were recover

HOME MISSIONS.
The Church Reaching Ont After
the Neglected of the City.

Plymouth Church Of Chicago is described
in most interesting and suggestive paper
in The Chautauquan for March. In the arti
Gle is an account of piece of missionary
work which the church has just started,
which deserves serious and general atten-
ton. 1t seems that Dr. Gunsaulus. the
popular pastor of Plymouth, realized keenly
that his audiences were made up of the Sc
lect OF the city only, and that the ''ne-
elected" we're not reached. He visited the
theaterS on Sunday night, found them full
of the very people he wanted 10 touch. and
going to his people asked their help. The
result was that the church decided TO rent
Music Hall, downtown audience room
with caracity of some 5000 and a maguifi-
cent organ, TO lend its pastor and choir each
Sunday evening, and TO stay away itself
giving the space TO the class to be reached
The first service was held in October las and
was great success.
The press and the people have caught the
spirit that planned these meetings and have
fallen into line with wonderful apprecia-
ton and enthusiasm. The increasingly large
number of people who cannot gain even
standing room at these services, and the in
convenience of having to SO so early to the
hall in order to secure a seat, seem to con-
stitute necessity for a larger hall. DIR.
GunSauus has been urged to 90 to the Audi
forum. but as his chief desire is for spiritual
results rather than a large crowd lie has
hesilated to take this step.
Dr. Gunsauus visited California last sum-
mer and will be remembered by the MANY
people who were sojourning at Pacific
Grove during the Chautauqua Assembly
held in july, and the thousands of readers
Of THE CALL who were interested in the re-
ports received from the special correspondent
stationed there. DR.. Gunsaulus is a man of
more than ordinary talents and is consid-
cred by many to be oneOf the greatest pulpit
orators of the day. He made tie Journey
from CHICAGO 10 California especially to lee
ture before the Chautauqua Assembly, and
durit & his stay at the great camping ground
delighted large audiences by his eloquent
and mastery addresses, and those who met
and heard him will be pleased to learn of his
latest success in Chicago.

NICARAGUA CANAL.
Its Importance Recognized Along the
Pacific Coast.

Its Importance Recognized Along the
Pacific Coast.
The Legislatures of California, Nevada,
Oregon and Washington have unanimously
adopted joint resolutions in favor Of the
Nicaragua Canal Bill, styled Senate Bill
1927. Every commercial organization from
San Diego 10 Puget Sound and, rs far East
as the Chamber Of Commerce of Salt Lake
City, has memoIiallzed Congress in its ia
vor. 1t will thus be seen that the Pacific
Coast is soidly on record in favor of the
Nicaragua Canal
The work already completed as well as
that now in progress, is shown by twenty
seven Photographic views which were taken
at different intervals along the line, and
which have been sent by the New York Of
fee Il Wall street, to Captain William L.
Merry OF this city. who has placed them o.
exhibition at the Merchants Exchange.
These pictures demonstrate that the rock
upon which the Panama Canal Company
split has been carefully avoided. The
money spent has been invested in practical
working appliances, and none of it has been
dissipated IL the erection of expensive pri-
yate buildings. Among The pictures is one
of the now celebrated dredger, NJ. y. SlaYin,
and another shows six of The large dredgers
at work in Greytowu Harbor The break
water at Greytown is pictured from several
different points The views also show the
nature of the buildings erected for the ac-
cOmmodatlOn Of the wOTkmen and the con-
structon officers, the character of the rail-
road construction, the working of the steam
dredGeTS, the operation Of the diamond drill,
the clearings through the forest, the hospi-
tai buildings and tile work as it is progress
ing in La Fe Bay. Every one should see

SHE ALMOST SAW THE FIGHT.
The Denver Woman Who Went to the NH
in Ono of Tommy Warren,s Suits

The Denver Woman Who Went to the MIL
i'm One of Tommy Warren's Suits.
Something of a sensation has been created
in aristocratic society by the rumor that enc
of the leading bellies OF the Crescent City.
disguised in n suit of male attire, figured
among the spectators of the recent Fitzsim-
mons Dempsey mill. Gossip has had it that
no less than five members of the gentler sex
witnessed the encounter from points of van
tagr on the tier of seats which were open to
the general public on the presentation of a
ten-dollar ticket of admission, but only one
name has been mentioned, and the relatives
OF the young lady enter denial to the
story.
1t leaks out that the woman who managed
to pass the outside guard and get as far as
enc of the boxes, when her identity was
penetrated by the police, is the wife OF
prominent aud extremely wealthy citizen
OF Denver, Col, Who at the time was oc-
cupylng luxurious snit of rooms at the
st. Charles Hotel. He knew nothing of
his wifeS intention, and was occupying a
box on the other side of the ring at the
time OF the escapade. The natty suit of
clothes that fitted her exquisitely formed
figure like glove is said to have been the
property OF Tommy Warren, the noted
lightweight, and her chestnut tresses were
deity coied on the top of her head and
there reposed In the recesses of Il jaunty silk
tile.
Had it not been for few stray hairs that
had unloosened themselves and fallen down
behind her ear, the disguise would have
been perfect. and the police would never
have bounced upon her in a hundred year.
She was bailed out late at night by Parson
Davies of Chicago and there was an inter-
esting finale on the following morning
when, accompanied by her husband, she
drove to the municipal court in a close car
rage.

CAUGHT PILFERING.
A Bell Boy Chooses Between
Snicide and Exposure.

Two sharp reports from revolver startled
the guests of the Palace Hotel about 7
o'clock last evening. a bell-bOy shot him
self near the eastern elevator OF the house
on.the fourth floor. His name was George
Joseph, and his residence is at ga Folsom
street
Guests Of the hotel have been losing
money and iewelry for several days, and
the complaints at the Office were quite
numerous. Special Officer Garrity was
placed on watch, and last evening purse
containing marked coins was placed on the
mantel Of a parlor in convenient suite of
rooms and then watched on the opposite
side of the hallway.
Only few moments had elapsed when
Joseph entered the room, and was retiring
\ IN haste when he was captured. The officer
placed him in an acOye, while he tele-
phoued for the mistress of the apartments.
While lie was doing SO Joseph drew his
pistol and attempted to take his life. The
fist shot did not take effect, but the second
entered above the right nipple and passed
out TO the right the backbone.
The thought of having been caught in the
act OF stealing had stricken him with re-
morse. and he preferred to die rather than
suffer the exposure. He was removed to
the Receiving Hospital, where his mother
visited him, and she said that his name was
George Combs. After dressing the wound
DR.. Bunker concluded that the bullet had
penetrated the liver, and therefore held out
little hope for his recovery.
