II Forbid the Ba1ans!"

A peculiar incident, and one that Gre
ted considerable excitement for the mo-
ment, took place in the Church Of St
John the Evangelist, Montreal, on Sun
day morning. At the IL o'clock service
Rev. Mr.. French was reading the banps
in the case of number of candidates
for matrimony. The names of two
couples had been read, but when Rev.
Mr.. French came to those Of William
Morrin. bachelor, and Anastasia Baker,
spinster, lady, evidently laboring under
great excitement, rose in the body OF the
church and said in distinct voice: u
forbid the bannsp'
Rev. Mr.. French asked: ''Upon what
ground do you forbid the banns!' "On
the ground that the man is already mar
riedP' was the reply.
After pausing for moment Rev. Mr..
French announced the withdrawal OF the
banns, and the author Of the startling
incident left the church. After the
service she met Rev. Mr. French in the
yestry and produced certificate to the
effect that the man Morrin had been
married to her sister come years ago, in
st. Patrick's church, by the Rev. Father
Quinliyan.

Fire Alarm

70 hear the call Of fire at night near
your window, or. even in the day time, is
startling to say the least Particularly
at night perhaps, for when the air is
still, and the word reaches your ear, it
seems as though all out doors is echoing
the cry. The direful results of great con-
hagrations is sufficient to arouse the
alarm of the most self possessed. Among
the devices for controlling fires from all
causes are those applied by the railways,
and especially the Minneapolis and st
Louis Ry., which uses steam by which
to heat it's cars Always comfortable
without the dreaded fre-box. The pub
lie appreciate such progression. The G..
r. & P. A., G. M. Pratt, Minneapolis,
Mimi, will be glad to give any informa-
tion regarding rates, routes, ETC., when
called upon.

A Curious Property Of Water.


Many simple experiments show that
the surface of water possesses property
which causes it to resist the passage OF
bodies either from above or below. This
is true not only of soapy water, bit OF
the clearest and purest water as well. A
sheet of fine gauze tends to float, because
it's weight being widely distributed each
of the numerous separate wires is! re-
sisted by the surface film SO that. the
water cannot readily pass through the
meshes.
Insects and plants utilize this fact in
many interesting ways. Some water
plants, whose leaves float on the water,
have very simple contrivance to keep
the upper surfaces of the leaves dry.
This consists of a great number of mi
mute hairs covering the tops of the
leaves. Water cannot penetrate among
these hairs even when the leaves. are
forced down beneath the surface.
The little RATS of eggs that gnats set
afloat on the water are kept from sink
ing and from being upset through this
same principle. The tiny eggs have
their points all upward, and they are
glued together so closely that, while
there is open space all around the point
Of each egg, yet the width of these
spaces is so slight that water cannot
readily pass through. You may again
and again upset such an egg raft, but it
will right itself every time and the
upper surface will remain dry. Y outh's

A Wealthy Squatter.

James Tyson, the richest squatter in,
Australia, was originally q coachman.
He saved little money and invested
in stock, which turning out pro6tably
left him the possessor Of $500. With
this sum, not a large one for the pur-
pose, he began grazing, and as he
worked hard and scarcely spent any,.
thing in few years he counted his
wealth by many figures. He started on
fifteen shillinys q week, and today he is
worth over e3,O00,000 and owns more
sheep and cattle than any other two
squatters in the world.--London Tit

THE FRESHMAN.

The savage loves his native shore,
Though rude the soil and chill the air;
Well then may Erin's sons adore
Their isle which nature formed so fair!
What flood reflects shore so sweet,
As Shannon great or past'ral Bann?
Or who friend or foe can meet
So gen rous as an Irishman?
His hand is rash, his heart is warm,
But principle is still his guide
None more regrets deed of harm,
And none forgives with nobler pride.
He may be duped, but won't be dared,
Filter to practice than to plan;
He dearly earns his poor reward,
And spends it like an Irishmar.
If strange or poor for you he'll pay,
And guide to where you safe may be;
If you re his guest while e'er YOU stay
His cottage holds a jubilee.
His inmost soul he will unlock,
And If he should your secrets scan,
Your confidence he scorns to mock,
For faithful is an I1ishman.

Deserted ut the End.

William the Conqueror was a man of
very gross habit of body, and at the
siege of Nantes was hurt by the rearing
of his horse, the pommel Of the saddle
striking the king in the abdomen and
causing injuries from which he died in
a few days. Before his death he was
deserted by all his attendants, who stole
and carried off even the coverings Of the

These men are perfectly acquainted
with the phosphorescent and electric
qualities Of the diamond, and they are
also aware Of the extreme uniformity OF
its specific gravity.
A boiling solution of some salt OF zinc,
called by the natives ''Tutenagum bas-
NAM" which solution has q specific
gravity Of 3.5. is used for the weight
test. Into this solution the stones sub
mitted for examination are thrown.
Those that float are rejected as not be-
ing diamonds. the Marwarees knowing
that the diamond has specific gravity
of 3.52.
The stones that sink are then exam
med. The larger pieces are rubbed w1tn
a silk handkerchief to excite their cleo
trio properties and held near light sub
stances, as small pieces Of tissue paper;
Diamonds thus rubbed readily attract
light substances. The phosphorescent
qualities are brought out by exposure OF
the stones to sunlight, and then taking
them into dark room, where the dia-
monds give of cleaning light.
Gut stones which have been tested as
above are then examined by boys es-
pecially trained, who sort them accord

THE LITTLE. DREAMER.

A little brown head on the stairway,
A broken song and toy,
Asweet little voice and an angel
That fill the hall with joy,
The wordless song on the child-lip dies,
A shadow spreads over the face
Till naught is lett save the little brown head
And the light of the angel is dead.
They tell me the child is assuming! 4
All me. can the dream be tue?
Has life, with its double meaning,
Already perlexed him too?
Has the dove, unskilled on its airy wing,
Fled off where the castles be,
Or followed the beam of the morning sun
Afar Ger the heaving sea.
A listless boy in the meadow,
In search of q swallows nest,
Forgets his toll when he meets the flowers
With their faces towards the West.
Where the bluebells twine with the voilets
He rests and dreams away;
I wonder when shall he overtake
The child OF yesterday!
blithesome youth is coming
Adown the crowded street,
The public pass unheeded,
And reckless fall his feet;
He has no thought for the tolling clock.
For the sun that glows above
For his heart eloped with winged hope,
Perhaps with dream Of love.
An old man sits by the doorway,
His chin on his aged cane,
The people pass as the silent clouds,
And the children scream in vain;
He gazes now on the fairy land
Where the sunlit rivers flow,
And anon he lifts his eyes to his
The visions of long ago.
Where the matted grass is wet with dew
In the shade of a willow tres.
The dreamer has rested from care to dream
For long eternity; ..4t
And oft as think of him sleeping there

"a dreamer lives forever, but
A worker dies in day"

An Appropriate Text.

A preacher in Boston was a Little fell
low, SO little that a box had to be hastily
brought from the cellar for him to stand
on. The services proceeded safely until
the sermon, when he mounted the box
and announced his text, "a little while
We shall see me, and little while and
ye shall not see me-" At this point the
box broke, and the prophecy was veri-
fed amid the smothered laughter Of
the congregation. New York Evening

One of Tyne.

When he left the school, where he had
received his education, Dennis O"Ioole
obtained situation in railroad office.
Dennis was naturally a we'll disposed
boy but no one ever urged him to con-
tinue his studies or cultivate his mind or
heart to any purpose. 1t would be con-
trary to the traditions Of the ''ward" for
a boy to study anything after he went
working" So Dennis used to stroll to
town evenings a'ter work and naturally
fell in with "de boys" 1t Was "hase
cigar, Dinny" and 'Whatche drinkin' to-
night Dinpy?" and "Didge see de Vriaty
Show, Dinny?" Then came strolls up to
the lake, dances at beer gardens, bill
]iards, pool, cards, whiskey straight, loss
Of situation, idleness and rum. Iu few
short years we find Dennis sitting on a
beer keg, outside corner saloon, a typi-
cal tough, slouch hat turned up behind
and pulled over his eyes in front, red
necked and flannel mouthed, his hands in
his pockets, and in general whats de
matter wild youses," air about him.
This is one of type of manly whose
short careers end in vice and misery.
Every blear.eyed rufian was once pure
eyed boy. The influences that effected
the tranformation in nine cases out of
ten, exist beyond the school. From the
day boy leaves school until he is hap
PLY married he Is constantly beset by
dangerous temptations. There is crying
need for the creation Of new and more
powerful church agencies to operate
among people during this period. Thou
sands of young men IN cities are not
reached by effective church influences
during the very time of life when vice
seems most alluring. There is perhaps a
transient sodality membership and an
attendance at early mass forsome years.
But they drop away and no agency ex-
lists to win them back. No agency exists
to help them form higher ideals. Libra
riee, lectures, social activities where they
may enjoy tho society of those who can
lead them up to higher things where
they may see the value of good breeding,
the beauty of purity, the reward of intel
ligence and right living. and whore they
may, under proper auspices, associate
with theyoung ladies of the church, these
are things not without the proper sphere
of church activity. For, while we feed
the orphans and care for the aged some
of the most promising youths Of our flock
are going down to destruction for want
of some such influence = Catholic Citizen.
