THIRD PARryISM Run MAD.
A North Carolina Preacher Forced to Re
sign Because he Complimented q
Democratic Speech.
Newton Enterprise. I

We have just heard of case of
Third party politics run to seed. At
the July court Rev. G. H. Bernheim
heard Mason and Robbins speak. After
the speaking one of the members of
his st. Timothy congregation asked
him what he thought OF the speaking.
He made some complimentary remark
about it, which made the man, who
was a Weaverite, very angry. A short
time after that congregational meet
ing was held in the church to discuss
the objectionable sin of their pastor in
endorsing Democratic speeches. Sew
eral other meetings we're held to try
the pastor, to which he was not invited,
but finally he was invited to the church
to stand trial. Several of the mem-
bers stated that they had nothing per-
sonany against him, but finally one
stated that all they had against him
was politics" Whereupon Mr.. Bern
helm very properly broke up the meet
ing by saying he would have nothing
to do with discussing politics in the
house Of the Lord, and mixing politics
and church matters. Atanother meet
ing at which he was not present they
passed resolution asking the pastors =
and it has been rendered.
This action is on par with the prac-
tiee last fall of holding political speak
ings in the churches, and deserves the
condemnation of all Christian people.
But if the st. Timothy congregation
is looking for a Third party pastor,
they will have to leave the Lutheran
or 60 long way off to find one.
We doubt if even Kansas could furnish
q Third party Lutheran preacher.

NO FUSS AND FEATHERS.
how Secretary Gresham Took the Oath of
Office.
From the Chicago News-Record. ]

From the Chicago News-Record.l
Judge Gresham repaired to the State
department about 3 o'clock. The off,
cials had not expected him, and there
was considerable agitation over his in
formal arrival. Official red tape is
very abundantin the State department,
and the swearing ia ofa new Secretary
is usually attended with all manner Of
ostentatious formality. Itwas expected
that Judge Gresham would keep up
the record. The officials had got ready
to receive him tomorrow morning.
They intended to assemble all the
heads of bureaus, assistant secretaries,
and high officers. Then a venerable
Bible was to be produced, and depart
ment relic, who has record of "swear
ing in twelve Secretaries" was to ad-
minister the oath.
But Judge Gresham made short
work of all this programme. He walked
into the Secretary's office recently va
Gated by Mr.. Foster and temporarily
occupied by Acting Secretary Whar-
ton. Assistant Secretary Adee hap
pened to be near and dropped in. But
there was no time for assembling the
heads of bureaus and bringing forth
the venerable Bible and venerable
swearer-in.
"Oh, any notary public will do to
administer the oath," said Judge Gres-
ham. "He is just as fully qualified as
any other officer"
Col. Cook, one of the White House
executive staff, who happened to be
present, was a notary public, so the
ceremony proceeded without any fur
ther formality. Judge Gresham raised
his right hand and repeated the oath
after the notary public.

mand to Will, to whom he now gives,
as is due, the whole credit of building
and defending his post, and has urged
his promotion to brigadier general,
which will doubtless be received soon,
though neither of US really care for it.
We expect the Armada again, and
will give him warmer reception next
time. The fort, expecting longer
time oft, was reserving their heaviest
fire for nearer quarters. Buffers ''gal-
liant troops'' came right under one side
of the fort, but our grape and canister
soon drove them of, and not Porter's
shell, which did not happen to be fall
ing that way at that time; they left
their traces sufficiently next morning.
The "gallant fellow" who stole the
horse from the inside of the fort was
doubtless so scared he didn't know
much where he was. The true state
ment of the thing is, that an officer,
unauthorized by Will or the general,
sent a courier outside the fort with a
message to some troops outside, and
soon after he left the fort was attacked
and killed by Yankee sharpshooter
hidden undera bridge. The poor body
fell and the horse was taken, and the
flag spoken of, in the same way, YVES
shot from the parapet and blew outside,
when it was taken. When any Of them
see the inside ofthe fort they will never
live to tell the tale.
All, mother! you all, at home peace
fully, do not know the misery of being

Composed While Walking.

[Mr. Haynes in Lippincott's.]
Paul II. Haynes favorite habits of
composition were to pace back and
forth between the standing desk in his
study and the bookshelves in the
library, or beneath the trees surround
ing Copse hill, if the weather was fav-
orable, and with pencil and volume in
hand to jot down on dyleaf the first
revision Of a poem or as much of it as
the duration of the creative mood
would allow. Sometimes be wrote
while taking leisurely horseback ride
around the house or through the
woods, sometimes while sitting in bis
armchair of Georgia pine, but generally
with greater ease while walking. This
was especially true during the early and
middle periods of his life, when he
found it irksome to sit down for any
length of time and never seemed to
weary of those meditative walks.
I have known bim to compose the
last line or the intermediate part of a
poem before the beginning. When
completed, however, what reader
would have doubted that it came into
being coDsecutively?
Occasionally the choice phrasing OF a.
thought that had bafied him for days
would visit him in sleep. My mother
told me that he awoke one night (he
had been very busy preparing his
Savannah sesqui-centennial ode) from
tranquil slumber and said suddenly,
"Mina, at last in sleep the thought
which has eluded me for days has beer
captured"

THE BIG MAN OF THE CABINET.
Mr. Bissell Fills the Chair OF His Pre-
decessor and Completely Overfows It.
| From the Baltimore American. I

From the Baltimore Americana
WASHINGTON, March 14.-On' the
scales, Mr.. Bissell is undoubtedly the
greatest Postmaster General the coun-
try has ever had. He is considerably
over six feet perpendicular, and his
horizontal measurements have so far
been withheld from the public. Un-
fortunately for him he found on his
arrival at the Post Office Department
that he not only filled the chair of his
predecessor, but considerably over
flowed it. In fact, the Office chair
occupied by Mr.. Wanamaker, although
of the ordinary size, was found SO in
conveniently small for Mr.. Bsssell that
he Immediately secured a requisition
for new chair to be built for him &C.
cording to specifications furnished by
him.
The new piece ofoffice furniture is to
be made Of heavy quartered oak, thirty
inches across the seat, supported on
straight legs three by four inches,
weighing about as much as the heavy
mahogany desk before him. It is not
the sort of a chair that one would twirl
carelessly about while engaged in idle
conversation, and will not bein any dan
ger from the petty thieves of the depart
ments, who carry away towels and soap
and such like articles. It will, how
ever, be great comfort for Mr.. Bissell,
who up to the present time has pre-
ferred standing to confining himself to
the narrow bounds of the chair of his
predecessor.

washington Post.7

A few days ago having occasion to
consult his physician, Chief Justice
Fuller concluded, instead of sending
for him, to enjoy the short walk to his
residence, and, perhaps, social little
chat as well in the latter's library. The
door was opened for him by a new man,
who, after informing him that the doc
tor was out, but left word he would
shortly return, asked the Chief Justice
into the library to wait.
Wholly unaware of the exalted posi-
ton in legal circles held by the quiet
gentleman with kindly gleam in his
eyes, the man soon presented several
sheets Of ruled paper, stamped en-
velope, pen and inkstand to the Chief
Justice. The Chief Justice looked up
inquiringly at the man who, in evident
embarrassment, stood before him hold
ing the literary tools.
Bashfully tripping his words over
each other as he stated the case, the
man profered the request that the
visitor, while waiting for the Doctors
return, employ himself in writing
love letter, as though ardently desiring
to communicate with his sweetheart,
the poor fellow being deferred from
doing so by his lack Of knowledge in
the art of penmanship.
Without hesitation, as though that
was the one business of his lifeS the
Chief Justice at once acquiesced and
settled down to the composition Of what
was undoubtedly the most unique love
letter ever penned by his hand.

Altar of Roses, and How 1t Is Made.
Kew Bulletin.1

1t is we'll known that the great Gen.
tire of the production of altar, or otto,
of roses occupies the northern portion
of the old Turkish province Of Eastern
Roumelia. The cultivation of roses for
this purpose is, however, limited to the
southern slopes of the Great Balkans,
as the flowers are nowhere produced
successfully on the North.
The distillation of the petals is carried
on in q very primitive manner with a
copper still of the simplest construc-
ton. The first runnings are returned
to the still, and the second are received
into glass TASKS, where they are Kept
for day or two at cooi temperature,
to allow the oil to rise to the surface.
From the latter it is skinned by a
small tin pipette, or funnel, with long
slender handle attached to the top and
a very small aperture at the lower
pointed end. This funnel is not more
than inch diameter at the widest part,
so that it is easily inverted into the
flask and plunged below between the
oily layer and the water. It is then at
once brought up and it brings with ita
portion the oily stratum with small of
quantity of water. The water escapes
through small hole at the bottom,
while the oil or otto is emptied into the
collecting TASKS for expectation.
The commercial altar is transferred
to fiat circular zinc receptacles known
as "coppers," which are carefully sewn
up in white felt and sealed with the ex-
porter's stamp, the brand being also
stencilled on the felt outside. Two of
these coppers, one covered with the felt
and the other without, are contained
in the Museums of Economic Botany
at Kew, and to these Messrs. Pierre and
Lubin have now courteously added a
specimen Of the pipette or funnel for
the purpose of making the collection
more complete.
AS regards the Identification of the
plants cultivated for altar of roses, it
may be useful to mention that il 1874
the late Mr.. Daniel Hanbury, F. R. S.,
presented 10 the Kew Herbarium spe-
cimens of "roses cultivated on the slopes
of the Balkans for the production Of
altar of roses," received from Mr.. Vice
Consul Dupuis Of Adrianople. These
contained specimens of two species, a
red rose R. Alba Damarcend Miller),
and white rose (R. Alba L. Neither
of these is known in wild state, and
there can be little doubt that both are
hyhrids between R. Gallica and R.
Gamma.

Our Debt to Science.
From the Kansas City Times.1

From the Kansas City Times.
In recent work on criminology the
learned investigator says that out of
ninety-eight young men criminals A
per cent, did not blush when examined.
Of 122 female criminals 81 per cent.
did not blush. If our novels are to
keep up with science they must change
their indicia Of emotion. It must be
the men who blush and the other sex
whose sensitiveness must not be a reg
ular feature. Leander bushes as he
declares himself or is suddenly brought
up against sentimental outcrop. But
Hero takes il calmly. The scientist also
notices that women blush about the
ears rather than on the cheek. This
also requires change in the novels.
It is a pointer, too, for the ladies' man
who is watching for signs that he is
making an impression. If lie fastens
his gaze upon the left ear he may see
something that will tell him he may
consider himself happy. Science is
gradually getting there and We shall
soon know it all.
