BELFAST, May 25.-The Conservatives Of
Belfast and neighborhood made q great
demonstration in Ulster hall in homer of
the Marquis Of Salisbury. Fully 5000
Oisterftes, most of whom carried minia-
ture union jacks, took part in the meeting.
PREVIOUS to the arrival of Lord Salisbury
captain Alexander Clark Kennedy, late
OF the Coldstream guards. created a furore
by unfurling a union jack, under which,
he said, the Grenadiers fought Mt Wat
erloo. And under that flag" he contin-
ued, the Loyalists would fight i'll Ulster,
and he and many other officers of the
British army would assist them"
When the enthusiasm of his reception
had subsidized Lord Salisbury addressed the
audience on the subject of home rule He
said he must confess that he could see no
advantage in delay or in a prolonged dis
cussion of the home rule bill. Therefore
he deemed it advisable to quicken the COM
mittee stage of the bill. Nevertheless it
must not be supposed that the Unionists
mad any idea of amending the bill with the
view OF making it acceptable to the coun-
try at large. On the contrary, they only
desired to exhibit to the British people the
real nature of the calamities it would en-
tail If it became law.
Mr.. Gladstone throughout his career had
passed from one view to another, always
yielding principles which he had previously
declared to be inviolable and sacred. No
man could fight against the people, and
Ulster must in the long run defeat meas
ure that depended upon the strength of
single man. The bill would probably pass
through the committee stage, but the
house of lords held an impregnable posi-
ton, representing as it did the loyalists of
England and Ireland. Public opinion must
be kept alive to the dangers of this imbe-
Gle bill. If, through faintheartedness,
superstition or the strategy of transient
party leader the work of three centuries
should be shattered, the disgrace would be
with the English people

DIR. Briggs Reply.

DIR. Briggs arose TO reply to the opening
of the prosecuting committee and to pro-
test against the entertaining of the appeal
by the general assembly. The question
before the assembly was not, he said.
whether or not DR.. Briggs teachings were
proper, but whether or not the appeal
could be lawfully entertained The first
thing tc be decided was whether the form
of the appeal was correct, not whether
any matters exist which might justify the
sustaining of the appeal. IF there was
any want of form or detail in the appeal
the general assembly could not lawfully
take jurisdiction. WAS the appeal, then"
DIR. Briggs asked, IAN appeal from the
final Judgment of the presbytery OF New
Yorh!" The Interpretation of the word
decision" in the appeal meant either re-
dundancy, which married its form, or some
thing in addition to the final Judgment, in
which latter case it was invalid. The Ian
guage OF the appeal obviously included
something beside the final Judgment of
the presbytery, for it referred to actions
and decisions of the presbytery; and until
this extraneous matter had been taken out
OF the appeal, DR. Briggs claimed, the gen
eral assembly could not entertain it.

No Appeal From Acquittnl.
DIR. Briggs asserted in the next Dlnce
that the final Judgment of the presbytcry
in his case was really declared by the
moderator of the New York presbytery ON
Dec 30, 1892, and from that appeal should

terry, and not from action OH Jan O. lS!c3

by the court which tried him at date sub
sequent to that OH which the final iudg-
ment was really delivered. "If any man
thought these objections were puerile and
technical let him put himself in his place.
Why should he waive any of his rights
when the prosecution was endeavoring to
take his ecclesiastical life.r
The second ground upon which the np-
peliee opposed the entertaining of the
appeal was that it was we'll established
principle OF law that public prosecutor
could not appeal from verdict of acu,lit.
tai The defendant was accused of heresy.
ana Dr. Briggs sketched the legal and ec.
clesiastical definitions of heresy and the
history Of the manner of dealing with it.
Now, he said, the punishment for the crime
of heresy might not deprive q man of his
Ire, llmb or liberty, but the punishment
might effect or destroy mans ecclesas-
teal life, and it therefore became peril

be twice placed in jeopardy of his ecclesi-

The Giants and Noah,s Flood.

Among the many queer stories related in the old Jewish Talmud and copied into Barring -Gou1d's "Patriarchs and Prophets" and works of similar import Is one concerning the action taken by the great race of giants at the time of the deluge At the time of the flood the giants were not all drowned. Their leader, Og, planted his foot upon the fountains of the deep, and with his hands he stopped the windows of heav- en. According to Rabbi Eliezer, when the flood broke upon the earth the giants exclaimed, "f all the waters of the earth be gathered together, they will only reach to our waists. and if the foun- tains of the great deep be broken up we will stamp them down again." This they did as they had declared they would. Then God made the waters hot and boiled the flesh from their bones.
 The Targum of Palestine also says the waters of the flood were hot. The Tal- mud then goes on to relate the story of the escape of Og, declaring that he went into the water along with the rhinoceros, clinging to the side of the ark. The same authorities which give us an &C., count of how Og saved himself tell us that all the waters of the deluge were hot except that which immediately sur rounded the hull of the ark. One rab- binic authority says that Og climbed upon the top of the ark, and that when Noah discovered and attempted to dis lodge him he swore to be slave to the patriarch's family forever If permitted to retain his seat.-St. Louis Republic.

Character In the Bell Ring.

Doorbells are pretty good indicators of character. Probably you have not been conscious of it, but every time you pull 8 doorben you register what manner of man you are. Your ring will not tell everything about you, from the color of your eyes to your taste in flowers, but to those who know the signs the doorbell Is as good as title page.
 Any one who has had occasion to an swer bell pulls knows how much differ ence there is in them. One persons method varies very little from time to time, though the difference between that method and somebody else, while slight, will be sufficiently well marked. It Is seldom that two rings are exactly alike.
 The housewife recognizes each-the impatient man, who pulls the bell twice in quick succession and does not wait long before trying it again; the one of more phlegmatic temperament, whose ring is slower and more substantial; the hesitating woman, who draws the knob out in succession of nervous jerks; the seedy individual with matches to sell, who stretches the wire carefully to its full length and then allows it to relax with faint, apologetic tinkle, and the jolly friend who knows he is welcome and therefore grasps the knob with a hearty swing that is fairly eloquent with good nature and sets the bell to shaking it's sides with such peals of echoing laughter that it positively cannot stop at once, but subsidies gradually with a merry, rrepressible little litter. A door, bell has as many voices as visitors Yankee Blade.

Getting Something Like It.

The following little experience, re- gently enjoyed by well known tenor, seems worthy of narration. Having mislaid his copy of Handels air. "Wher- e'er You Walk" the artist in question sent faithful but unmusical servant to procure copy of the song. In due course the messenger reappeared, bear ing in place of the required piece 8 cer- tain music hall ditty entitled, "I Like a Little Toddle Down Regent Street"-not by Handel.
 He had failed to secure the object of his quest and so, imagining that words of an ambulant tendency were the chief desideratum, had picked out what he thought to be ''the nearest thing" The story certainly seems to require grain of salt for its due assimilation, but 1t must be borne in mind that truth is stranger than fiction.-Shefheld Tele- Qranh-

awhile Vernon went of to college and cism.. He talked his skepticism to Ralph, the workman. After awhile Vernon went from home again, was gone fol years, came back, and among his first questions when getting home was, siWhere is Ralph?" "Ohl" said the ia ther, "Ralph is in prison waiting for the day of execution"
 Vernon hastened to see Ralph. Ralph, looking through the wicket of the pris- on, sajI: "Vernon, how good you are to come and see mel am glad to see you. I hardly expected you would come and see rle. I don't blame you; I don't blame any body; I only blame myself; but, Vernon, I want you to promise me one thing. Will you?" Vernon replied, "1 will" "I want you to promise me never to talk skepticism in the presence of any body You see it might do them harm. When you used to say there was nothing in the Bible. and it didn't make any diff ference how we lived, we would come out happy at the last, somehow it had a bad influence upon me, and went from bad to worse until am here, and must die for my crimes"
 By almost superhuman effort the sen tence was changed, and he was to be transported to another country for life. The ship going there was wrecked on Van Diemen's Land. Among those who perished was Ralph, the victim of Yer non's skepticism. Vernon tells the story today with tears and broken heart, but it is too late! Oh, do not talk skepticism; do not talk skepticism! Let God be true, though every man be found a liar.

Teaching Children PoIiteness.

Children are too often left totally un- instructed in those small courtesies of everyday life which go so far to make our domestic and social relations har- monious. They should be taught, al- most from infancy, to be polite, to enter and leave room properly, to respect their elders, to remove their hats when they enter house, to seat themselves quietly instead of throwing themselves boisterously upon chairs or lounges, to close doors gently and to do many other things naturally and politely which they now do awkwardly and rudely, simply because they have never been instruc. ed otherwise.
 A little time devoted each day to this gloriously good work will surely bring an ample return in the end-will, in fact, bear good fruit from the very beginning since child who is being taught to be polite is at the same time learning con. sideration for others and so is cultivat- ing unselfshness of character. In the same way child who is encouraged to be orderly, to do little offices for itself, such as folding up it's clothes or putting hat or toy in it's proper place, is not only mastering one of the most valuable of lessons, but is also saving the mother many weary steps in the present and heartaches in after years.-Housekeeper.

The Crab and the Sea Anemone.

Some crustaceans hide their shells un- der another sea creature, apparently to protect themselves. A certain hermit crab found in the Mediterranean sea is fond of a sea anemone, and it is unusual to find shell which hermit has chosen for his house unprotected by his anemone friend. A gentleman relates that he captured and put in a large aquarium Dne of these sea anemones on a shell in which was hermit crab who seemed al- ready to have outgrown his house.
 "All went well for awhile" he writes. "Then the hermit grew so large that he had to leave his shell and abandon his friend. An hour after the hermit left his old shell looked at the aquarium again and was surprised to find the sea anemone on top of the new shell which the hermit crab had adopted as his dwell ing. They both seemed very well sstis- fled.
 "How had the anemone come there2 I soon found out. I cautiously lifted the shell to the surface of the water and let the anemone fall to the bottom of the aquarium. Then put the shell down near it.
 Hardly had the crustacean touched bottom before he seized the anemone with one claw, then with two, and I saw at once what he intended to do.
 "With great care he went to work to replace the anemone on the shell. He found the anemone upside down, and he took great pains to set 1t upright again. Then he grasped 1t firmly with two claws and raised it and placed 1t on the shell. For 12 minutes he remained per fectly motionless, pressing 1t firmly on to the shell all the time. Then he very cautiously took away first one claw and then the other.
 "I was pleased to see that when he moved the sea anemone remained in place as firmly fixed as the energetic little crab could wish"
