congregational Fund for Ministers,

What becomes of disabled and aged
ministers and their families? A good
many of them depend on friends for
support, some on public charity, some
suffer in extreme poverty. The average
salary Of ministers allows no margin to
be laid aside. The minister himself is
likely to cease to be in demand at an
age when men in other professions are
most prosperous. Our denomination is
far behind others in providing for worm
out ministers and ministers widows.
A foundation has been laid for a fund
sufficient to provide for the most press
ing needs. The trustees of the national
council, having charge of this work,
have in hand about $4,000. The Rev.
N. H. Whittlesey, Of Evanston, Ills,
has consented to present this matter to
the churches for three years, in the hope
that by that time the needed amount
will be raised.-Boston Congregations

Republican Milton Made a Lord.

My Paris correspondent writes, Deep
ly as British civic corporations are sunk
in snobbism, none of them ever fell 50
low as, in naming a street after the hero
of Trafalgar or of Waterloo, to christen
it Lord Nelson street or Duke of Wei
ington street."
My correspondent mderestimated the
depth of snobbism in civic human ma
ture. There is, it appears, a Lord Nell
son street in Liverpool. Even this is
outdone in Newcasile-on-Tync Some
years ago thAt city boasted of two Byron
streets and two Milton streets. In order
to get rid of the consequent confusion,
the corporation, instead of altering
sstreet" into some Synonymous term,
hit on the beautiful plan of turning one
thoroughfare into Lord Nelson street
and another into 'Lord Milton street, =
and so the names remain to this day.

fad, which is rs unique rs it is interest
ing. On table i'll the drawing room or
the reception room is kept a handsomely
bound volume with the word "confes-

one finds line quoted from some more
or less noted poet to indicate the senti-
ment that swayed the writer's heart and
communicated itself to his pen at the
time he made the inscription, or some
sad or joyful happening that has caused
him to leave behind the imprint of his
state of mind by purloining a phrase
from a familiar author.
The name of the writer is signed to
each inscription, and for weeks after

for the amusement of the initiated by it,;

Making Balloons Safe.

Two melancholy accidents through
balloons becoming ruptured III midair
have led to experiments being made
with a view to save life under such con-
ditions. One aeronaut in France fitted
his balloon with parachute which
overspread the upper part of the gaseous
envelope. He then made an ascent, and,
with marvellous confidence in the value
of his improvement, purposely cut the
fabric of the balloon and let the gas es-
cape. The parachute then expanded,
and the occupants of the car sank slow
ly and safely to earth.
In another experiment, conducted. in
this country, to show that, if the neck
line of Il balloon were left united the
silk envelope would itself form an uni-
brellalike parachute, the Car hnd no
occupants, but was weighted so as to
represent crew of three persons. BY
means of Il fuse and a weight the fabric
was automatically slit from top to bot
tom when the balloon was at n height
of 5000 feet. upon which the material
assumed the form of an inverted basin
and came down gently. 1t is argued
from the result of this experiment that
the occupants of burst balloon would
come safely to the ground if they only
had the presence of mind to cut the
neck line.-Chambers' Journal.

Blshops in Convention.

AS with so many similar gatherings,
the really interesting side of the Epis-
copal general convention that recently
ended its sessions in Baltimore did not
come out in the daily reports of its
formal proceedings. Besides the regular
meetings, which were of course impor-
tant in their way, there We're held daily
gatherings of the bishops and deputies
in the hotel reading rooms, which We're
enlivened with many entertaining anec-
dotes and personal experiences.
A few of these possibly partook of the
nature of the chestnut. One heard. for
instance, how boy once tried to sell
some kittens to Bishop Brooks on the
plea that they were Episcopal kittens,
and how few days later he tried to sell
the same kittens TO a Baptist clergyman
walking with the bishop, alleging that
they We're Baptist kittens, and how he
explained the discrepancy i'll his story
to the bishop by saying that they had
had their eyes opened i'll the meanwhile.
This and few other stories about the
bishop have apparently been touched
with Immortality. Like the tabled An
taeus, they renew their strength when
ever they fall to the ground. But there
We're plenty of fresh stories also. The
morning after Bishop Brooks preached
in Emmanuel church deputy asked a
well known Baltimore churchman who
had been present how the bishop had
acquitted himself. "Magniiicently,

Glad to Congratulate Him.

When John Wanamaker celebrated
his fifty-fifth birthday recently he re-
ceived many congratulations and good
wishes, but it may be doubted if any of
his friends really wished for many
happy returns Of the day with as much
earnestness as that felt by the twenty
four life insurance companies that have
issued policies on the life of the Phila-
delphia shopkeeper. The whole amount
of the insurance thus represented is
said to be $650,000. Every additional
year of Mr.. Wanamaker's life diminishes
the companies risk by increasing their
premium receipts. Hence the sincerity
of their wish for many recurring ami
yersaries of the day Wanamaker cele-
brates.-New York Times.

II. G. Keene has found III the diary OF
his late father an interesting description
of the storming of Seringapatam, at
which he was present on May 4, 1899.
Captain Keene, who was nephew of
General Harris, then commander in
chief, seems to have gathered from pris-
oners full details of the last moments of
our once redoubtable enemy, Tippoo
Sahib. In his entries, which have been
forwarded for publication to the Cal
cutta Review, he says:
''Tippoo sat at his dinner till one of his
servants told him that the English We're
coming, and they presently appeared.
This was the head of the left hand col
umn. He sent off a servant to the place
to bring up the troops, seized his rifle
and shot one of the first three who came
on in front. Another was killed by n
shot from the bastion behind. The third

are devils; two are killed and the third

was. Tippoo frowned and put his fingers
to his lips. He then made blow at Il

his bayonet, and the body was soon COW
