81 was born in Massachusetts,, said
he, land reared in a strict Puritan fam
lily. The Sabbath commenced ON Satur-
day night, when we children were re-
quired to study the SeripturaI lesson for
the next day. After an early breakfast
next morning we went at our lesson
again until church time. The morn
ing service was from 10 to 10 o'clock,
composed chiefly of a long winded SER
mon, during which we were required to
keep awake, pay strict attention and be-
have ourselves. This was followed by
Sunday school, where we recited our
lessons correctly or suffered severe con-
sequences.
"After cold lunch at home, for moth
ing was cooked on Sunday, we attended
church again from 2 until 4 p. m. The
interval between this time and Z o'clock
prayer meeting was occupied with re-
ligious reading or reflection, no frivolous
games or diversions being permitted on
this solemn day. As special dispense
tor we were given hot tea for supper.
Prayer meeting was out at o'clock, and
from that hour until bed time we sat
quietly at home reading such thrilling
and interesting works, especially to chill
dren, as Baxter's Saints Rest and
Fox's Book of Martyrs | used TO
sympathize with those martyrs, and
compare their miserable state with
mine. Washington Post

How Men Carry Their Hands.

"a sure indication of character is
found in the way in which a man car
ries his hands," said q. G.. Clarke, of
Boston. "You notice men on the streets.
See the young man with swinging arms
and palms which are displayed to all
who take the trouble to look. He is one
Of that class whose heart is as open as
his hands. He is frank, unsuspicious, a
free spender and believer in the hon
esty Of his fellows. Notice the business
man more advanced IN years. His hands
are always closed so tightly that he
gives you the impression he is ever ex-
pecting an attack. This is the attitude
of men bent upon certain object. 1t
is an attitude which displays the quail
ties of determination and fight.
"In debate you will observe some OF
our lawmakers emphasize statement
by hammering the desk before them
with their knuckles, while others, ap-
parently equally impassioned, are salts
fed with the use of the palm. You may
rest assured that if sheer determination
will succeed, the man who applies his
knuckles will win before his colleague
who uses his palm. Louis Globe
Democrat.

An Actress Narrow Escape from Hanging.
1t has just come to light that Ramie
Austen met with painful accident dur
ing her engagement at the Peoples the
alter, which has until now been kept
from the public. In the last act Of
dangers of a Great City, a rope and a
pulley are used in a scene representing
the hatchway Of deserted factory. The
villain of the play entices the hero into
this factory, overpowers him, and with
the aid Of the rope and pulley endeavors
to hang him-Ramie Austen, of course,
coming to the rescue in time to save him
"a continuance being used and deftly
concealed to save Mr.. Davidson from
any serious accident
After the performance Wednesday
Miss Austen, while engaged in talking
to several members of her company,
playfully twisted the rope about her
neck, initiating the scene in which Mr..
Davidson is hung, and shouted loudly
and in tragic tones, quoting line from
the play, "Your hour has come, Ed
mund Vaughnl' One of the company,
believing that Miss Austen was pro-
tected by the same device which Mr..
Davidson used, gave the rope a sharp,
quick jerk, pulling her up at least two
feet from the ground. AS Miss Austen
was wholly unprepared, she received
the full experience of being hung. Her
throat was badly affected and it gave
her great pain to speak. An understudy
was Immediately secured, but Miss Aus
ten rallied under the doctors care and
continued her performance Thursday,

A Too Enterprising Collector.

There used to be q book collector IN
this city who was the terror Of all who
knew him. He was well to do and a
very learned man. He was great buy
er of books and owned a fine library, but
nobody else's library was safe if it con-
tanned book he coveted. For long
time his victims did not suspect him.
He would call, spend an hour or two
among their books and go away. Final
Iy one bibliomaniac, who had suffered
most severely, had his suspicious arous-
ed. Even then he dared not utter them,
so he went to his lawyer about it.
The lawyer had him make out list
of the volumes lost. They were all OF
extreme rarity and great value. Armed
with this list the lawyer called on the
suspected man and introduced himself
as a collector from the west He had
heard of the gentleman as bibliophile
of authority and wished to consult him
about some books which had been Of
fered him before he concluded upon their
purchase or rejection.
"What were the books?" his host
asked.
He ran off the titles of several of the
stolen volumes.
NONSENSE said his host. Nobody
can sell you them. Town the only copies
in the country"
Next day the lawyer wrote a letter
which resulted in the restoration of the
spoil to its rightful owner. How many
rare books belonging to other collectors
remain in the collection-for it has
never been sold for obvious reasons-no
one can say.-New York Cor. Pittsburg

One Of the rudest acts in the eyes Of
native of the Philippine islands is to
step over a person asleep on the floor.
Sleeping is with them very solemn
matter. They are strongly averse to
waking any one, the idea being that
during sleep the soul is absent from the
body, and may not have time to return
If slumber is suddenly broken.
If you call upon native and are told
''He is asleep" you may as well depart.
To get servant to rouse you, you
must give him the strictest of orders.
Then at the time appointed he will
stand by your side and call, "Senorl
senorr repeatedly, each time more
loudly than before, until you are half
awake; then he will return to the low
note, and again raise his voice gradually
until you are fully conscious. - Ex-

THE TIN PLATE INDUSTRY

On the day of the adoption of the Re
publican platform of protection in the
Minneapolis convention, one of the
largest tin plate companies of Lianelly
& Swansea, Wales, announced the
completion of negotiations for the re-
moval of its twenty mills to Gas City,
Indiana. The plant is valued at ST.
900, 900, covers fifty acres and employs
1000 men. Work begins at once and
the mills are to be constructed within
three months. The result is triumph
of the Mckinley law. The Welsh pro-
prietoFs Sc admit.
On the following day, the day of the
nomination of Harrison and Reid, the
International Tin Plate & Refining
Company was organized in Chi
eago. The head of this concern also is
the proprietor of large Welsh interests.
He says of the situation:
"Wales produces so per cent. of the
tin plate of Great Britain, and 70 per
cent. of this product comes to the
United States. To meet this demand
400 mills will be needed, as against 90
or 60 now located in the United States.
The value of the tin consumed in this
country annually Is about S50,000,000,
and the labor employed in its produc-
ton equals $2O,OOO,OOO. Nine plants
under Welsh management are now
running, or shortly will be established
In this country, including large plant
at Elizabeth, N. ]. Wages in this
country are just double what they are
in Wales. Our eight mills will provide
work for 400 hands, the average Of
wages being 81 per day. The Illinois
Steel Company produces better steeI
than any made in Wales, so we are all
right in that regard"
During the brief period, less than one
year, that the tin plate duty has been
operative, it appears that already from
so to so tin plate factories have been
located, nine coming from Wales
When the required 400 shall have been
erected $20,OOO,0OO in wages will be
saved to American workingmen--a
sum which hitherto has gone to Brit
ish hands. Already the saving to
American labor aggregates several
millions of dollars. The Mckinley
bill did Ii.

A recent cable dispatch from Eng
land gives some of the facts which led
Lord Salisbury to declare that free
trade is a mistaken policy for that
country. "The fact remains" it says
"that for some time trade has been g0ia6
doton Nth respect to nearly every articlc
Of British manufacture for export, but
most of all with regard to iron and
steel hardware and cutlery" Then
after giving statistics of the decrease
the dispatch continues: Exports are
just the same as they were in 1888
though the imports of foreign goods
are much higher and there are 1000, OOt
more pairs Of hands seeking work. .
Meanwhile, our export trade steadily
increases and the establishment Of
scores of new manufacturing institu
lions is putting thousands of new
hands at work In all parts Of the coun
try. These facts, 50 clearly apparent
the free trade theorists will find it i'm
possible to controvert.

Farm laborers are so scarce in eastern
Pennsylvania that an endeavor has been
made to procure some of the German
immigrants who land at New York.
Meantime 10000 greasy, ablebodied in
dividuals out of employment are polish
ing the seats OF our city parks in all
parts Of the Union, making mslodorous
the air in their immediate vicinity. The
trouble here, as always, Is that the de-
mand and the supply do not come to-
gether. In this case the supply particu-
larry avoids the demand.

The Russian government has written
letter to a manufacturing firm In Ber-

microphones which can be secreted in

their utterances. Modern science has
thus put into the hands of those who are
willing TO take advantage of it an in
strument more terrible than anything
used in the torture chambers of the Mid
die Ages. But this is small business for
the czar's government 1t will only
blow him the higher when the explosion

The Christian Union lays it down as
fact that deteriorated quality Of
young men are going into the ministry
nowadays. 1t doesn't attempt to ac-
count for 1t, but leaves the reasons to
be inferred. Probably the chief one IL
that the salaries paid to clergymen are
not up to those paid to similar talent in
