Our great and good friend, the nBalti-
more American, thus points out an illus
tration of one of the best known of biblical
assertions: FLORIDA is finding out that
the way of the transgressor is hard. The
sin of permitting the recent prize figh I
has been followed by the disgrace of tn
Infamous Louisiana Lottery Company, "
etc. The American, it will be observed
means to point wholesome moral. But
it has got the sequence of events wrong.
The lottery was operating from Port
Tampa before the prize fight occurred
therefore, if the American wishes to as
sert and prove that retributive justice
has overtaken Florida it will have tc
transpose the phrases recent prize fight
and Louisiana Lottery Company in the
sentence quoted.

Ex-Gov. Osborn, of Kansas, who knows
ex-senator ingalls, about as well as any
body, says that ingalls, demonstration at
Sam Jones meeting the other day means
we may hear the eloquent ex-senator in
the pulpit soon" In Kansas, according
to the ex-governor, nobody would be sur
prised if Ingalls, were to adopt the cloth,
join forces with Sam Jones and go to
filibustering against Satan. What a
team that pair would make, to be sure !!
ingalls, is a master of invective and vitu-
peration; Jones is a master of pulpit
billingsgate and coarse sarcasm. To-
gether they ought to be able TO drive Old

The musical festival is ended. 1t was
grand success. 1t gave satisfaction to its
patrons and those who took part in it,
The people will look forward to it as the
event of each year. Each festival will be
better than the one that preceded it.
What is needed is building dedicated to
music-one that would accommodate all
the singers who are willing to take part
in the festival and all who would
patronize it. Every effort should be
made to collect the money to erect such a
building, and every music-loving citizen
should encourage such an effort. Savan-
nah can easily become the musical center
of this part of the south Let US work
together in this matter, and not one will
regret having done so.

Joseph Keppler, Of Puck, who died on
Monday, was one of the best known and
at the same time least known men in the
country, As cartoonist ne was famous,
yet as an individual he was compare
lively unknown. He took little part in
public affairs, except through the
medium of his paper, and then it was the
paper rather than the man whose sharp
wit and biting sarcasm were recognized.
Mr.. Keppler probably caricatured
more prominent public men during
his career than any other artist
in America, and it is said to
have been his caricatures of William NJ.
Tweed that led to that famous rascals
recognition and capture in foreign
country. Mr.. Keppler was an Austrian,
and had been baker, an actor and a
newspaper writer when he established

The Senate committee on woman suf-
frage, ref erred to in our dispatches of yes
terday as having been filled by the sub
stitution of Senators Hill and Wolcott in
the places of Senators Vance and Quay,
is not regular, but select committee,
the existence of which is kind of sop to
the woman's suffrage movement. The
committee has never amounted to any
thing; has never done anything more i'm
portant than listen to addresses, and will
probably never do anything more impor-
tant. If the women ever obtain political
recognition in this country it certainly
will not be through an initiative step
taken by the Senate; the first step will be
taken by the House. The Senate does
not believe in innovations; woman suf-
frage would be an innovation, hence the
Senate does not believe in woman suf-
frago. It's committee on woman suffrage is
merely lay figure.

1t would require an evenly balanced
critic to decide whether the stage or the
pulpit is ahead in reaching after realistic
effects. On the stage we have real boats
running in real water, real saws rip
ping real boards, real fire engines
being drawn by real horses, and real
safes icing cracked by real burglars
In the pulpit we have recently, from time
TO time, had real gamblers preaching on
the subject of gam bling, real workingmen
preaching on the needs of the working
classes, real millionaires preaching on the
subject of the gospel of wealth" and
Sam Jones preaching what a terrible
thing it is to be terrible fellow
Indeed, both the stage and the pulpit
have so frequently of late sprung "sensa-
tions" on the people that their innova-
tions have almost ceased to astonish, and
there is disappointment when neither
agency rings in something new in tine run
of a Month.
A New York preacher, however,
worked novelty into his sermon last
Sunday that is so fruitful of suggestions
of other novelties that the stage will have
to hustle TO keep up with the race The
Rev. DIR. Tyndall, at the Broome street
tabernacle, introduced live rooster in
his pulpit, and with it illustrated how
the devil masters sinners. In the illus
tration the rooster personated the sinner,
while the preacher played the devil. The
rooster was hypnotised and made to do
several ridiculous things, which the
preacher said furnished an object lesson
of just how "the devil gets men by the
neck, then leads them by the nose to hell,
just as led the rooster" And, indeed,
if ROSTERS think, this particular bird may
have thought the performance itself CON
stituted the place to which the preacher
said he led him.
The line of innovations suggested by
the brother actn of Mr.. Tyndall and the
rooster is this: Have rooster in the pull
pit to crow at the proper time when
preaching about Peter and his denial of
his master; have an ass in the pulpit to
bray when reference is made to Baalam's
famous iaunt; have fatted calf in the
pulpit to slaughter when the prodigal son
us under discussion; have whale in the
pulpit with which to illustrate Jonah's
adventure, etc Along this line startling
object lessons could be furnished every
day of year of Sundays.

CHAPTER XVIII.
New plans

The return Of the beSiegers into BOr.
oeaux was a sorrowful spectacle They
mac set out, confident of success; they
returned, beaten and DISCONTINUED.
Madame de Condo waited at her win
DOW for the return of the expedition.
Bofn O. family Of warriors, she
could not divest herself Of a feeling
of disquietude when she reflected that
the bourgeois We're about to contend
with the regular soldiers The pres
ence, however, Of the Due de Laroche-
foucault, and the regiment of Ma
vailles, somewhat treasured her.
At last the duke appeared before
| her i'll disorder, and with his shirt
spotted with blood.
Can it be that you have been re-
pulsed?" cried she.
Madam, we have been beaten"
Beaten! 1t Is not possibler'
Beaten" marmured Claire, ''by NJ,
de Candles"
"And how did it happen?' asked the
princess, in an indignant tone.
Like all other failures, madam; we
met those who We're stronger than our,
selves
"He is brave, then, this NJ. de Ca.
nolles?"
/ oh, madam, every one IS brl e;
! but he had good soldiers. and good
walls, and was on his guard He lad
probably been forewarned. ThHn the
/ BOrdelais are sad soldiers-they fed
at the second fire."
1T only remains now to lose
! Vayres," cried the princess. Beaten
| by a nobody-a M. de Candles; the
very name is ridiculous"
I claire colored up to the eyes
IN. de Mazarin will think it sub
lime" said the duke
and if I mistake not he continued
glancing at Claire, she will not be
alone in his opinion
"Oh," said Madame de Tourville, "i1
they had taken my advice, and com
menced a regular siege! You would
have an immediate assault, and sex
what has come of it."
Madam" said Lenet, "a siege is
! impossible. for the Bordelais are MOI
soldiers, but bourgeois. They must SUI
at home, and sleep in their own beds
This is their first attempt, so do mo-
blame them too much. They will re
trace these four leagues and begiI
again as often as it is necessary
DO you think they will?" asked the
princess.
Doubtless, madam, they love the
island too well to leave it to the king.
But will they take it?''
Yes. at last"
well, when they do, we will have
NJ. de Candles shot"
Claire shuddered.
"Peste!'' cried the duke, eff that i:
how you make war, / congratulate Il
myself that l am one of your friends
At this moment NJ. Espagnet was an
nounced. Claire's heart sank as sh,
listened to his protestations that the.
would make M. de Candles pay dea
for his first victory. Madam" sail
he, I'VE beg your highness to reassur
yourself. Instead of four thousant
men, we will send eight thousand; in
, stead of six guns, we will send twelve
and we will take st. George"
Bravo! monsieur" said the duke
that is the way to speak. You know
that I am your man, either as com
mander or as volunteer, as many time
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1894-05-03

"Oh, it is Candles. Are you awake,
at last, baron?"
ooh, yes. But what are you doing
here, SC early?''
"Pardieul we come to besiege you,
nothing more"
And whyE'
ITO take the fortress Candles
laughed.
Come. baron, you yield. do you
not?'' continued Ravailly.
First. tell me how it is that Ma
vailles is in arms against the king
1--WE found out that Mazarin is a
coward, and we passed over to the
princess. VIII you not leave this
place and come with u.s.
impossible. Do not NEEDLE with
the bridge. Ravailly, make him leave
off. or I fire"
BAH you joke. Let us alone; you
know that you have no force
81 do not joke. Take down the
ladders"
Ravailly laughed, and encouraged
his men to proceed. Another company
was disembarking; Candles saw that
the moment had arrived, and cried,
with a firm voice, "Stop! Ravailly, not
one step nearer, or my men shall fire,
as surely as it is the kings flag that
waves above me- And with his
strong arm he pushed down the first
ladder, overturning five or six men
with it.
Then Ravailly, and Remoneuq, seiz-
ing each a ladder. cried "Navailles,
to the ASSAULT At this moment the
battery commenced firing, and the
balls struck the ground at Candles
feet
Candles then cried, eff they will
have it, fire, my men," At the order
a volley of musketry, from behind the
paraIet, saluted the assailants; while
piled to the battery. A dozen men
at once fell, but this only seemed to
give fresh vigor to the rest. The fight
became earnest; Candles flew from
place to place, animating all by his
voice and action. Ravailly brought up
o.
was repulsed; and Ravailly, himself,
fell badly wounded by a pistol shot
fired by Candles.
The assault lasted for some hours,
but at last orders were given to re
treat. They were beaten at all points,
and had sustained heavy loss.
Candles ordered his men to cease
fire, and let them retreat undisturbed.
He had only sixteen wounded and four
killed. and he, himself, had not even a
scratch.
"Peste! said he to Nanon, after re-
ceiving her joyful caresses, what a
butchery; they have lost five hundred
men at least; and I was forced to
break the arm of one Of my best
friends to keep him from being killed"
But you are safe.'
Yes. thank God. Doubtless YOU
brought me luck, Nanon. But l must
beware of the second attack, for they
have promised to return
We'll, Candles, you still command
here; you will have the same soldiers
to fight under you, and you will have
time still further to augment your
means of defence"
MY dear Nanon, they know more
OF this place now. If were the Due
de LarOchefoucault, ] would take this
place tomorrow"
