Among the prisoners was woman
who had caused a great deal of trouble
from the first hour she had been placed

considered a confirmed criminal.

her in solitary cell. When she was
taken from II she made 50 much trouble
/ that ii became necessary 10 put her

But one Sunday they took her ont in
time 10 attend chapel service with the
other prisoners II had been q cloudy
day. and the woman seemed even more
surly than usual She was carefully
guarded lest she might do some harm.
Just MS the service was about 20 close
the sun broke through the clouds. and
streamed into the chapel. touching the
picture Of Christ and the erring woman
with almost Divine effulgence. The
effect was very beautiful and impress
i've. From row TO row the women
gazed at the picture. aud snhdned muir
murs were whispered from one to the
other.
She who was the wiclSedest OF them
all had gathered herself together and
sat crouched like wild beast. staring
straight at the Christ, her rough head
sunk between her shoulders, and her
knees up to her chin.
When the service was over the sun
still fingered upon the picture The bell
sounded and the prisoners arose to file
out Of the chapel, but the violent wom-
an did not stir The attendant thought
She meant new mischief and came up
behind her, and, taking her by the arm,
said:
Get up and go out"
She received no response. Fearing
the woman might make disturbance
the officers waited until the other pris-
oners had left the chapel, expecting a
hand-to-hand tussle with the insubor.ii-
nate. Approaching heragain, the officer
said. quietly
why didn't yon go out? Come, get
up nowr'
To her amazement, the woman, who
never had shown them the least sign Of
tender emotion, turned upon hera soft.
ened face and moistened eyes. As she
arose. she said:
Yes, | will go ! only want 10 see
that, pointing to the picture. II don't
want to see anything but that
They led her weeping to her solitary
cell. few days later she quietly
asked to be let out with The other
prisoners promising not to make any
disturbance. From that time she was
changed soul. There Is no gentler
woman in that prison to-day. Sermons
and prayers and songs and kind words
were not able to do what the vision Of
Christ in His plying love had done for
this sin-bnrdened, penitent heart. =

A RACE OF NoN.DRINkrs.

Drunksrds.
In the academy Of medicine In Pari,
very valuable paper WAS recently
read by DR.. Lardier on Alcoholic In
toxication and It's Prophyloxis. The
author furnished large number Of sta
tistics Ia support OF his thesis, support
ed by observations which he had coll
lected In all countries After stating
that In twenty years, from 1870 10 1890,
the consumption Of alcohol had quad
rupled 10 France. and from one litrs
forty-aix centilitres per head had risen
10 -four litres forty centilitres, DR.
Lardier insisted on every possible
force being put into operation to fight
against this intoxication. He conclud.
ed by stating that the Jewish race was
that IN which alcoholism had made tho
least ravageA In America the law per-
mits Of drnnlnrds being incarceratcd,
and out of eighteen thousand alcohol
les locked up at New York the number
OF SemiteS was almost insignificant
Dir. Lardier attributed this fact 10 an

There IL, IL seems. no appreciabIe

favor Of total abstinence, considered
either as a voluntary act or as the out

true that by an amendment Of the fed
eral constitution, passed in 1855, the
cantonat legislatures acquired the pow
er Of restricting the number Of places
for the sale Of liquor within their re-
spective jurisdictions The power has
ostensibly been exercised In fourteen
cantons, but even In these, taken as a
whole, the number Of tayerns has come

No substantial report, therefore, has

spiritual strength.

,omposure is very often the highest
result,of strength. Did we never see a
man receive ilagrant insult. and only
grow little pale, and then reply quiet
ly? That was man spiritually strong.
Or did we never see man in anguish
stand as If carved out Of solid rock,
mastering himself2 or one bearing a
hopeless daily trial remain silent, and
never tell the world what IL was that
canlsered his home peace? That Is
strength. He who with strong pas
sions remains chasse; he who kecnly
sensitive, with manly power Of indig-
nation in him, can be provoked and yet
refrain himself. and forgive; these are
strong men, spiritual heroes. Robert

A SPOT FOR THE SPORTS.
Neutral Territory Between Kentucky and
Indiana That Defies Both Sides.

Indiana That Defies Both Sides.
Just above Evansville, Ind, the
Ohio begins to make a big curve-fif-
teen or sixteen miles around il and
only mile across in some places. Co
ing down the river you see Henderson,
XIV, not over a mile away: when you're
five or six miles above Evansville, and
when you get to Evansville you're still
ten or eleven miles above Henderson.
During the foods one spring the river
began to cut a new channel, and, when
it finished, big piece Of ground that
had been in Kentucky was over in In
diana For couple of years the re-
publicans on the place used to get in a
boat, row across the river and vote in
Kentucky, and then row back and vote
in Indiana.
Finally the Kentucky officials tried
to collect taxes, and the Indiana Of
fcials tried the same thing. The peo-
ple wouldn't pay either, and the mat
ter went to the courts. The judges de-
cided the ground was in Kentucky.
Maybe the sports don't have good
time down there. When the Evans
vile crowd wants TO give a chicken
fight they walk down to Kentucky.
and the Indiana police stand there and
look at them. Once in great while
the sheriff from the Kentucky county
drops in on the boys. but they just
walk into Indiana and extend the
sheriff an invitation to drink, and the
sheriff he accepts. st Louis
