0Of all workingmen in this country the
Frenchman is most particular about his
midday luncheon. He eats it with the ap
probation he gives to either of his meals
at home. In some Of the manufactures,
such as bronze foundries, where only
Frenchmen are employed, the scene at
noon is characteristically French.
The ragouts have been heated at the
boilers and the air is filled with the savory
odor. Broken rolls Of French bread, al
ways something green in the way Of salad
and an old bottle filed with cheap wine
are by every mans side. In his own coun
try the French workingman rarely has
meat at midday, enormous quantities Of
bread taking its place. Sometimes here he
substitutes for meat piece Of cheese But
whatever he has is appetizing and has
been prepared as much for his pleasure Of
the palate as for the satisfaction Of hun

Arteslan wells in the African Desert

In the year 1856 the French engineer, NJ.
Jus, demonstrated that that portion of the
Sahara desert included within the area of
French Algeria contained large under
ground supplies of water, and the number
of wells bored since that time in the de
partments of Algiers, Oran and Coustan-
tine amounts to more than 1900 These
wells vary from 100 to 400 feet IN depth.
and the pressure Of the water forces it a
couple Of feet above the surface Of the

land have been made fruitful in this way.

The English Church Two

The English Church Two Centuries Ago.
If you were to ask any person specially
interested in the Church of England-not
necessarily a clergyman Of that church
which was the deadest and lowest and
feeblest period Of the church's existence,
he would without the least hesitation re-
ply that the reign of George II covered
that period. Il is certain that the churches
were what is commonly called ugly"
that is to say, they were built by Wren,
or were limitations Of his style, and had
nothing to do with Early English or Deco
rated or even Perpendicular.
Also, it is certain that the congregations
sat in pews, each family by itself; that
there were some few pews of greater dig
nifty than others, where sat my lord mayor,
or the aldermen, or the sheriffs, or the
masters Of the city companies II is also
certain that all the churches had galleries,
that the services were performed from a
three decker" that the sermon was
preached in a black gown. and that the
clergyman called himself a minister, and
not a priest All these forms are abomina-
tions to the latter half Of the Nineteenth
century. There were also pluralists; the
poor were left very much TO themselves,
and the parish was not worke ed according
to modern ideas Walter Besant in Har.

Young ones were reared and bred from, the

presumably derived most Of the European

Two Surprises.

Last Friday it had been noised
about on the streets that U. B.
Prickett, our city marshal, had
been guilty of some very grave
oifense, and he was quietly Motif
ed by two Of the city councilmen
to appear at the Mayors Office that
afternoon at 4 o'clock and answer
the charge that had been prefer
red against him.
In state Of severe perturbation
he repaired to the Mayors office
at the appointed hour, and found
the room crowded with thoge who
had gathered to learn what misde-
meanor the marshal had been
guilty of. After taking seat he
was told that P. F Greenwood
would present the charges. Mr..
Greenwood arose and in an elo-
quent speech portrayed the ideal
police officer, and closed by pre-
senting Mr.. Prlckett with bead
tiful and expensive revolver, tell
ing him that he fulfilled the re-
quirements of the ideal police
officer, and asked him to accept
the present as token of the ap-
probation and esteem of his fell
low citizens and recognition of
his faithful discharge of all the
duties of his trying position.
Wedn nesday afternoon Night
watchman Pratt was called to the
Mayors Office, and presented with
an expensive revolver, new club,
pair of nippers,l and pair of rub
ber boots. Mr.. Pratt has made a
very efficient officer. and the act
was a graceful recognition of his
faithful service. M. d. Campbell
in a neat speech made the presen-
tation.
