Gosh, wasn't the minister mad! He
had started to read a hymn, and he
quit after he read two lines where it
said, In game of four handed euchre
never trump your partners ace, but rely
Oh the ace to take the trick on suit Pa
was trying to explain how the book
came there, when the minister and the
deacons started out, and then poured
the 2-quart tin pail full of soft soap on
the front step. It was this white soap,
just the color of the step, and when got
1t spread went down in the basement.
The visitors came out, and Pa was trying
to explain to them about Hoyle when one
of the deacons stepped in the soap, and
his feet few up, and he struck on his
pants and slid down the steps. The min
lister said: Great heavens, deacon, are
you hurt? Let me assist you,' and he
took two quick steps. and you have seen
these fellows in niger show that kick
each other head over heels and fall on
their ears and stand ON their heads and
turn around like top? The minister's
feet slipped, and the next saw he was
standing on his head in his hat, and his
legs were sort of wilted and fell limp by
his side, and he fell over on his stummick.
You talk about spreading the gospel in
heather lands! 1t is nothing to the way
you can spread it with two quarts of soft
soap. The minister didn't look pious
bit. When he was trying to catch the
railing, he looked as though he wanted to
murder every man on earth, but it may
be he was tired.
We'll, Pa was paralyzed, and he and
the other deacon rushed out to pick up
the minister and the first old man, and
when they struck the step they went
kiting. Pas feet somehow slipped back
wards, and he turned summersault
and struck full length on his back, and
one heel was across the minister's neck,
and he slid down the steps, and the other
deacon fell all over the other three, and
Pa swore at them. and it was the worst
looking lot of piors people ever saw.

woods somewhere where nobody could

On Sept. 81, 1889, the steamship Bay
of Naples was lying at anchor near Bed
loe's island with a cargo Of IS, 900 cases of
kerosene. The tug John Sylvester, pass
ing by, saw smoke pouring out Of her
hatchway. Upon investigation it was
found that she was afre. The master of
the Bay of Naples requested the tugs
assistance in fighting the flames. The
tug signaled to half dozen other tugs
in sight. and all went to work with a
will to fight the flames, which had
reached small portion of the infamma-
Bile cargo.
They succeeded in putting the fire out
after 1875 cases of the kerosene had
burned. The tugs received $4,000 sal
wage, although their actual work did
not occupy much more than an hours

This spring she had risings in the ear, and a

She also seemed very nervous, we thought from
the effects of the poisoning. felt she needed
something for the blood, saw your medicine,

CARD FROM MR.. STARKE.
He Replies to What Mr.. Waddey Said
Yesterday.

Editor OF the Times:
l had hoped to be able to keep out OF
the discussion started in your columns
in regard to recent remarkable awarding
Of contracts for the City Hall furniture,
&c, and think / would have done so
but for the card of Mr. Everett Wad-
dey in this mornings Times, doing for
the committee what they declined doing
themselves. defending them from the crit
icisms of yourself and correspondents.
In his card. judging by remarks heard
to-day, he does me an injustice, inten-
tional or rot, In the way he states our
relative bids. for while he tells the truth
as TO figures they are misleading to any
one not acquainted with the details Of
the specifications and divisions by sche-
dulles. as few readers would notice that
the cases bid on under the figures he
gives were entirely different as to guam
tity as we covered one schedule Cd that
he did not bid on at all. nor did he bid
on schedule \ that he also quotes.
We had three bids before the committee
ss follows: 1st. Schedule a. $3.9e4A5. on
which Mr.. w did not bid. %. Schedule
b, c, II and y, SlS.HS&. Schedule
f. was not included in Mr.. VS. bid,
and Sd, each schedule, a, b. c. ID. and
r. StldIdtt. ''uT blu on Stut'luit T. Nda
$3i5. These bids are still in the hands of
the committee.
Now to show Mr.. Waddey's bid and
the only one of mine that he came in
competition on in their right light. 1t Is
necessary TO deduct from our bid for
schedule T. $3.50 from our total for +.
G, ID and Il G1S. ilS.3O, and you find
that our bid for schedules b, c and -,
those bid on by Mr.. Waddey. TO be SlS,
O73.37, against his bid Of SIS. 4O7.1i, making
a difference in these original bids Of
S331.l7 in our favor, instead Of slO.13 I'm
Mr.. WIS, as would appear by a hurried
reading OF his card While in Colonel
Cutshaws report on the modified bids
the difference stated was over $500 as
has been claimed by yourself and CORE
spondents.
I do not propose going into any details
as TO the decision Of the committee, nor
do l dispute their right to throw out
any and all bids" as per their adver-
tsement they reserved that right. but
do dispute their judgment as to the rea-
tive qualities OF the TWO lines, and ques-
ton their right to give any bid to any
competitor, because he claims that |
have made a mistake. A successful bid
is, OF course, open TO the public. but this
is the first time l ever heard Of an UNI
successful one being given out. | also
question the right OF any committee 10
make such an award. provided the lowest
bidder is a responsible party. and states
in his bid and specifications that his
goods do come up TO the requirements.
Yours. &c.

REVOLUTION IN BELGIUM.

The recent public uprising in Belgium
came very near leading to civil war;
and would most assuredly have done so
had not the Chamber promptly acceded
TO the demands OF the people and granted
them popular suffrage. Never were
people more determined to have what they
believed to be their rights. The uprising
was not confined TO any special section
OF country. and we have seen py the
press dispatches that at Liege In the
east. Mons In the southwest, Antwerp In
the north. Grammont In the west ana
Brussels in the centre there was trouble.
The mob went through the town singing
the "Marseilaise' and the "Carmagnole.
The civil guard met the rioters and fired
upon them. A battle was fought and four
OF the strikers were killed The people
from the surrounding country focked into
the city to encourage the men, whom they
call patriots
The demands made by the people OF
Belgium were not unreasonable.
At present, Il is stated on authority,
not more than one-half Of the men In the
Kingdom twenty-one years old and over
can vote for candidates for any office,
and only about one in ten can vote for
the deputies According TO the old laws
each elector was required TO pay an an
nual direct tax OF 40 francs C$S). before
he could vote for the man TO represent
him In the National Chamber. and under
that qualification only 1909 mer could
vote in 1s9O-about 2lS3 in every thous-
and Of the population. The provincial
officers were chosen by men who paid
20 francs and the communal officers by
men who paid 10 francs In direct taxes
A certain degree OF education Is accepted
In lieu of the tax when the man occu-
pies a social position which is defined by
law. Under these proisions there are 5iS,4A
voters or about one-half Of the male
population. Ii is this disfranchised half
which determined to assert itself and de-
mand recognition.
Our foreign kilograms inform us that
they have succeeded in their efforts. The
Chamber OF Deputies last Tuesday
promptly granted their demands for pop
uar suffrage by the almost unanimous
vote Of 1l9 to u, and henceforth the little
Kingdom of Belgium will be but one
short step removed from a Republic
1t was well for the country that the
Chamber acted as 1t did. and permitted
a peaceable. instead Of bloody revolu-
ton. Had 1t disregarded the popular
clamor, there would have been an upris-
ing similar TO that Of the French revo-
luton, and the bloodshed would have been
terrible AS 1t is the triumph or the
people in Belgium will mark a decided
step in the march Of Democratic sent-
ment in Europe-a march which Will con-
tinue its progress until even aristocrauc
Russia shall feel It's power and yield TO
it's influence.
