HANDKERCHIEF MOODEY.
An Eccentric New England Clergyman
of the Last Century.

The Rev. Joseph Moodey, sometimes
called Handkerchief Moodcy," pastor
of the Second Church at York, Me-, was
the only son of the celebrated Samuel
Moodey, pastor of the First Church in
York. He WAS born in the year 1900,
the year of his fathers settlement At
the age of IS he received the honors of
Harvard College and for fourteen wears
he was very useful and active man in
civil life, being for some years clerk of
York and register of deeds for the
county. In each of these offices he has
left ample testimonials to his care, in
dustry and correctness. He was also
Judge to the county court when but 30
years ole.
His father was DESTROYS that he should
become a preacher, as he was possessed
of superior talents and was a man of
eminent piety. The importantly of his
father prevailed, and in 1872 Mr..
MOodcv resigned his civil Offices and
was ordained. His wife, Lucy White,
was the daughter of clergyman of
Gloucester, Mass, and together they
worked among the people of York for
seven Years. On the death of his wife
Mr.. Moodey fell into a melancholy
state, from which his friends in vain
sought to arouse him.
Like his father, his faith was remark
ably strong. In i745 he had been sup
plying his fathers pulpit while he was
absent as chaplain of tn" army Of Louis
burg. a day of fasting and PRAYER hay
ing been appointed in York to pray for
the surrender of the enemy, Mr..
Moodey PRAYED for about two hours.
In the first part of the PRAYER he be-
sought that the enemy might he given
into the hands of our forces, and then
he turned and offered up thanks to the
God of battles for what He had done for
us. AtterWard, by comparing dates of
the events at LOUisburg, they were
found to be correct, the surrender oc-
curing at that moment, and this re-
markable PRAYER became a matter of
history.
He used to cover his face with a hand
kerchief when in melancholy mood, bat
sometimes would let his friends see his
face, shutting his mild blde ewes. In
early life, while out shooting deer, he
had accidentally shot a beloved Young
companion, and this event came back to
his Oyerwrought and sensitive mind in
later days. Mr.. MoOdev died suddenly.
He had inherited the family gift of
singing, and during his sad DAYS had
ceased to sing; but the day before he
died he spent alone, and in his room
was heard singing HYMNS. He did not
leave his chamber that night, and in
the morning was \und dead in his bed
He did not aIway wear the handker-
chief thrown over MS head in the latest
years, and he was only - wears old
when he died.-B0@oH Commonwealth.

A VEGETABLE BONANZA.
4 Root That Is OFTEN Quoted as Being
the Most NaIna lie


High prices are often paid at certain
times for drugs such as Quinine, cocaine
and others, but drug is used in North
China which in actual value far sur
passes anything which has been known
here.
The substance in question is called
ginseng, and is the root Of AralIa qIin-
quefolia. 1t is so highly valued as Il
tonic and stimulant medicine in China
that it is sold from twenty t. 25O times
its weight in silver, sometimes for jnO
times that amount. Pearson's Monthly
states, however, that it possesses no Inn
portant medicinal properties. Next 10
China the drug il produced in good
quality in COrea, and is the principal ar
ticle of export from COrea into China.
30 much Is this the case that the Cor
cans are 10th TO part with any seeds Of
the plant lest their practical monopoly
in this root should be invaded.
The wonder is that with such nluch-
used commodity at such price steps
are not taken to cultivate it in sufficient
quantity 20 a. to adjust the balance be
tween supply and demand. The reduc-
ton, for example, in the price Of quin-
Inc was largely the result of increased
cultivation of the cinchona plant, and
the same may be said of cocaine in re
epect to the cocoa plant
Perhaps. however, the foreign suhsti-
tutes Of the real product, ginseng,
which reach the Chinese markets from
North America and elsewhere, interfere
with the native production. But with
silver in one scale and portions of the
highly esteemed root in the other. it
seems reasonable to conclud" that the
cultivation of the Aralia quinlucfolia in
North China would lie remunerative,
whatever the cost and trouble.

Courtesy and POliteneSs.

An instance occurred once on GARD a
steamer on Lake Erie. A country girl,
not thinking or knowing that this act
was in violation of all rules of courtesy
and politeness, picked up the comb and
brush belonging to a lady occupying
the same state-room and used them in
dressing her abundant hair. When
done, she surveyed her toilet with sat
isfaction before the mirror, touching
the tresses here and there, lightly, but
the lady opened the window and cody
tossed overheard the offending articles
before the eyes of the astonished girl.
This was not wise, nor wOmanly, nor
right. Another case TRANSFERRED, but
the document was no more creditable
to the lady in question. A young girl,
unused to the ways of the world, called
into requisition the comb and brush of
the lady occupant OF the same room.
She thanked the owner when she re-
placed the articles. A smile greeted
her as the kind woman handed them
back to her, saying:
Il hope, my dear girl, you will par
don me when | ask you to accept of
these from me as little gift, presented

take no offense when | tell you that

There are a great many little things
like this, my dear. that you Will learn
as you grow older and as you are
thrown more frequently into good So
ciety. They are little things, and yet
they help to make polite men and
women. We must az latrn them, they
come to us gradually and slowly, and
no one need be ashamed if she has not
yet learned them. Don't blush, my
dear. am am not thinking unkindly of
you; | am doing as | would wish anoth
CT to do by me under the same circum
stances, and am sure give them cor
daily and kindly and lovingly"
How humane and how Thoughtful this
was Good angels must attend and
wait upon such a kindly nature! The
poor abashed girl murmured her thanks
and her gratitude, while the tremulOus
peoples of mid-June were not redder
than her flaming cheeks.-ROSelIa Rice,

an increase of three cents. The strike
was not confined to the Post, but was
extended to all the papers, it being
under the auspices of the printers IN

departments on the Post were all
printers, though a little rusty from dis
use, the Colonel himself having been in
former time very rapid compositor,
and it was determined to withstand the
demand until a remedy could be found.
The men had been modest but firm in
their action, though, as customary in
such cases, striking just at the time
their services were most needed. They
stood about the Office and looked good
naturediy on the proceedings. The
Colonel took off his coat, as did all Of

PLAN TO PUNISH CORRIGAN
Mgr Sat0T8 Project for DISCipIIning TIT
Archbishop.

Al GiD'OHUp.
NrNNEAroLs. Mimi, Aug. 1.-Thj
Journal prints to-day sensational ar
ticle on recent developments in Ameri.
can Catholic circles, which it declaret
comes from the highest authority.
Archbishop Satolli, the papal able.
gate, left last night for Wash.
ington after having spent Sc,
eral weeks in the Northwes@.
and the Journal declares that the r..
belIious Archbishop Corrigan, of Ne'
York, is now to be punished and IN
very diplomatic way. The head and
front of the offending of tn.
Archbishop of New York has
been his refusal to reinstate DR..
Burdsell in his original parish, or one
inst as good, in spite of the fact that he
has been admonished to do so by the
ahlegate Behind this refusal Satolli is
said to see determination on the part
of COrrigan not to yield TO his
authority. 1t must he either this or
resolve on Corrigan's part to resign
from the archdiocese. The Journal
saws that Satoili, after consultation with
his close friend, Archbishop ireland, OF
st. Paul, the leader of the liberal wing
of the American Catholic Church, has
determined to 90 to Rome soon and
Law the matter before the Pope
with the recommendation that a
coadjutor be appointed to assist the
archbishop of New York IN the man
agement Of SO large a diocese" This
action, if approved by the Pope, and
there seems every reason to suppose it
will be, will be equivalent to the re
moval of Corrigan from the active man
agement of affairs Of the archdiocese.
The Journal hints that in case such
action is taken by the Holy See it il en-
tirely probable that Archbishop Ireland
will be appointed that cOadiutor.

BLOUNI COMING HONE

SAN Francisco, Cal, Aug. l.-Authen-

Minister, Blount has determined to
turn over matters in Hawaii, as far
as the United States interests are
concerned, to Commodore Skerret, of
the Boston, and he will sail for the
United States on the 9th inst without
waiting for the appointment of his sue
ocssor. Mr.. Blount may therefore be
expected to arrive at San Fran

his report which has been mailed
by the steamer Oceanic will
have preceded him and BY the time
the special commissioner and minister
arrives in the East the Presi-
dent and Secretary Gresham will
have had full opportunity to
consider its contents. The intima-
tons that Mr.. BlOunt has relinquished
his mission because he resented his APP
pointmcnt as successor to Mr.. Stevens
does not appear to be borne out by the
facts. The appointment followed Mr..
BIount's arrival in Honolulu as
natural and necessary feature of the
work placed in his hands. and the min
listers reason for returning to the
United states is his desire TO give attcn-
ton Ia his personal affairs.
