MRS. BAEYERTz.
THE CAREER OF A CONVERTED
JEwESS AS AN EVANGELIST.
Christian Out of Her Desire to Be Re-
united to Her Deceased Husband.

A series of Bible readings and evan
gelistic meetings has just been held in Los
Angeles by Mrs. Baeyertz, converted
Jewess. This eminent lady preacher be-
gan her work in Australia nearly sixteen
years ago. She brings with her the
most hearty encomiums from leading
ministers in the colonies, where she has
been the means OF much good. Her
original home was in North Wales,
where her parents were both devout
Jews. Their family was reared in the
strictest adhesion to the Mosaic ritual.
The evangelist therefore unites a
thorough grounding in the Old Testa-
ment with the most fervid and practical
acceptance Of the New.
Absolutely devoid OF any peculiarly
in dress, manner or language, she aims
at nothing so much as clear, simple
statement OF the Gospel. Her whole
life is almost unconsciously absorbed in
realization of the personal love and
presence OF Christ. In listening to her
addresses it is impossible not to realize,
to an unusual degree, that her entire
being is animated by an unseen reality.
She began her mission in Los Angeles
in the Y. M. G. A. building, but its in
capacity to accommodate the crowds
who thronged to hear was soon evident.
The First Presbyterian church, DR.. Rus
SELLS, was then thrown open. Her evan
gelistic work is conducted upon regu-
lar system, Wednesday night being de-
voted exclusively to a meeting for women
and girls; Thursday night for. men and.
scriptures is Of the most comprehensive
nature.
Her personal history has special at
tractiveness all it's own. Married in Aus
stralia to Christian husband, to whom
she was devotedly attached, her five short
years of welded life were full to the very
brim ofdomestic happiness. An accident
left her widow with two little chill
dren. The one desire of her life was
reunion with her loved husband.
An earnest believer in the second COM
ing of Christ, she holds that the
world is on the very Saturday eve OF
His return.
She speaks this evening in the Pres
byterian church at Z 80. This afternoon
at will be the mems meeting at the
Y. Nj. G. A. Her mission in this city
will close with Wednesday evening
next.

A DRUNK'S POETRY.
HE WAS FULL BUT WANTED TO
WRITE FOR THE PAPERS.
A Reporter Listens to Some Sentiment
from a Bum-He Says He Does Not
Want to be Judged in Rhyme.

As a HERALD reporter was going
along Spring street the other day he
was cornered by man, who, in the ex-
pressive vernacular of the west, was de-
cidedly "full." He stated that he
wanted to write something for the pa
per, and was.accordingly accommodated
with pencil and notebook, which he
was too much under the influence to
use. After several attempts he return
ed the materials, and insisted upon the
reporters writing at his dietation,
which proposition being acceded to, he
delivered himself of the following lines,
very slowly and with many corrections.
As they are new to the reporter, they
are submitted as. possibly, the produc-
tions of the drunken mans fuddled
brain:
Let us speak of the man as we find him,
And censure alone as we see;
And should man blame leLs remind him
That from vice there are none Of us free.
If the veil from the heart could be torn,
And the mind could be read on the brow,
There are many we'd pass by with scorn
That we're loading with high honors now.
Let us speak OF the man as we find him,
And hear not what others may say;
If he's frail, a Kind word will bind him,
Where coldness will turn him away.
For the heart must be barren indeed
Where no bud of repentance will blow;
Then pause ere you cause 1t to bleed
On smile or frown ing soul.

The Enterprise and goxer.

While Sheriff Alonzo Sylvester was over
hauling some boxes in the attic of his house
at Pennington formerly occupied by the late
Deacon Thomas Hunter, father of Mrs. r.
Cutler), he came across package of old let
ters, written by relatives and old friends of
Deacon Hunter in Bristol. One was from
his sister Ruth Hunter, which was dated
August II, 1872 AT different dates up to
September 18Th, additions were made to the
letter; and at the latter date it was forward
ed to Mr.. Hunter through the courtesy of
VIM. Fosset. Under the date of Sunday,
September 18th, 1913, is given the following:
Last Sabbath there was severe battle
fought between the Enterprise and Boxer
Saturday the Boxer sent her barge into Penn
aquid and alarmed the people very much.
The Boxer sent flag of truce and wanted to
examine Tom Childs's papers; and Captain
Sproul and his company came also They
gave the Britishers raw rum to drink and set
them almost crazy. There was a dreadful
time, and they had enough to 90 to keep
were all in arms very quickly My brother
james saw the battle Sabbath day. The En-
terprise took the Boxer and carried her into
Portland. Both captains were killed. The
Boxer lost great many men more than she
would on account OF her col0rs being nailed
to the mast and the crew could not get them
down. They had to wave their hats 1t is
not learned how many men were killed but
we shall know tomorrow.
The doctor of the Boxer was on Monhegan,
and the captain got some fishermen to go
after him and four men with him. telling
them he would give them $50 if they would
bring the doctor before the action COM
menced. But the fishermen were too late,
for the battle had begun before they could
get him on board; and when the doctor saw
the Boxer had struck her colors he would
not go on board but went back to Monhegap.
Bill Burns went after them and brought off
the doctor and three of the men with him,
for which he received $25 per head bounty.

No Novice at Farming.

MIR. John K. Martin of the Falmouth,
while running one Of Names largest and
most successful hotels, is at the same time
doing some very creditable work as a tiller
Of the soil. He 'struck into" his hay field at
East Deering last week and housed some
thing like 160 tons of hay, running an un-
usually large crew, with modern haymaking
machinery. He will probably devote his en-
ergies to his Bridgton farm this week. Mr..
Martin keeps constantly employed" some
thing like 40 or 80 choice, mich cows, turn
ing out milk, butter and cream for his hotel;
and. making it himself, he is tolerably GER
tain to have on his tables every day In the
week the choicest grades of these essentials
to we'll managed hotel. The landlord is no
novice as granger, having conducted farm
for something like 10 years. We expect,
says the Bridgton News, in the near future
he may transfer his fine herds from Deering
to Bridgton pastures, when he will be able
to make valuable contribution to our local
cattle shows.

SERIOUS SHOOTING ACCIDENT.
Mr.. Freeman N. Weeks in Critical
Condition.

Mr.. freeman N. Weeks is very we'll known
in Portland. He is machinist by trade.
and built the steamer Greenwood. which he
ran for several seasons on the island ronte.
After the death of his brother George last
year, be left the steamboat business and
took the grocery store which George had oc-
cupied. He has always been well liked, and
was pleasant and cheerful Notwithstanding
he was afflicted with deafness.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Weeks left his
store. on the corner of Franklin and Con-
gress streets about o'clock, and Walked
over to his house in the rear of Congress
street. near Marie Terrace. and directly in
the rear OF the house occupied by Drs. Will
liam Cammett and George M. Tolford. Mr..
Weeks lives in the lower tenement in this
house. After he arrived home be proceeded
to tinker revolver he owned, which needed
some repairs, when the revolver was dis
chasged and the ball entered his left breast.
Mr.. Weeks stepped to the front door. and
called to DIR. Tolford, who was in his own
yard lew feet away, exclaiming, "George,
I've shot myself" DR.. Tolford called to DIR.
Cammett, who was smoking in the rear
room looking on the yard, and the two sur
geons had the wounded man in charge al
most as soon as the shooting occurred. They
found the wound situated about an inch and
a half above the heart, and made compress
which arrested the flow of blood. They
then cut for the bullet, which had gone
through the lung, and 1t was taken out near
the back. The doctors thought their patient
had an even chance of recovery last night,
If blood poisoning did not set in. Mr..
Weeks is married, but has no children. His
wife was at her mothers. on Munjoy, at the
time OF the affair. and it was great shock
to her to learn the news when she reached
home. Mr.. Weeks's ags-he is about IS
years old-is in his favor, together with his
steady habits.

HELPING a CORRESPONDENT.
An Incident In the Life OF Hannibal
Hamlin.

AS an instance of the kindness of heart of
the late Vice President Hamlin the follow
ing incident may be Of interest: The writer,
who was at the time it occurred the Port
land correspondent of the Boston Herald,
had received instructions to obtain, If possi-
BILE. an advance copy or abstract. of speech
that Mr.. Hamlin was expected to deliver In
regard to the proposed through route from
Portland to the west via Rutland, at the
time when the public mind was agitated as
to the question whether 1t was better to
build a route via Rutland or Ogdensburg.
The late John A. Poor favored the former
and Gen. S. j.. Anderson, the late Governor
Washburn, John B. Brown and others de-
sired the latter.
Mr.. Poor had invited the prominent men.
interested in the various roads that would
be links in his scheme. to Portland. and had
also interested Sir Hugh Allan who ordered
his new steamer, the Prussan, to be opened
to their inspection and courtesies extended
the visitors. MIR. Hamlins speech was set
down for 3p. m. in City Hall, and the
Herald thought if it could print the speech
in its last edition it could send it to Maine
ahead of its contemporaries.
Mr.. Hamlin was then unknown to the
writer, who went to the Falmouth Hotel to
sea him. In the rotunda he saw the familiar
figure of Hamlin. clad in the, even then,
historic swallow tail. He introduced him
self to the Vice President and stated the OBJ
ject Of the interview. Mr.. Hamlin told him
he had no idea what he should say, be hadn't
nrQnara6 anvfhinu hut nordfaliv N Uitad tbo
writer to his room. Once there Mr.. Hamlin
said: you say this is a matter Of great i'm
portance to you. If you choose to stand the
hazard of sending speech to Boston may
not deliver-for the slightest remark to me
by the chairman before the meeting, or on
the platform. may change the whole current
OF my thought will dictate what posi-
bly, may say" The writer drew his note book
and for half hour Hamlin spoke as if to a
crowded audience. Then bidding the Vice
President good bye with thanks for his kind
ness. the correspondent rushed to the tele-
graph office, and got the speech over the
wires just In time for the Herald's edition.
A little later, in fear and trembling he at
tended thei meeting at City Hall where the
distinguished statesman delivered, almost
VOID for word, the speech dictated the cor
RESPONDENT only so short a time before. 1t
was first class beat fer the correspondent.
The speech was an important one. The
Herald arrived with a full account, while its
contemporaries had to wait until the next
day. long time after, the writer
had an opportunity of calling the at
tention Of Mr.. hamlln to the good
turn he bad done him to which Mr..
Hamlin replied. "No thanks sir, liked
your perseverance. You took your chances
and might have met with disappointment
but" he added. with slight twitching of
the muscles of his mouth, and tremble in
his eye, sit was remarkable that the speech
you sent and the one delivered should have
resembled each other so clio sely."

Soon after the Bangor express, which
