Sad State of Affairs In the Established

Marriage seems a great failure in
the case Of curates in the church Of
England One of them writes of the
sad lot Of his class as follows: when
wears in charge of fashionable sub
urban parishes insist on having only
Young and unmarried curates it may,
in the opinion of mere worldly men,
be very nice for the girls. but is it
very good for the church? Why do
married Wears invariably advertise
for unmarried curates? Are their
own marriages all failures?
NV case is a common one
am a curate and want work. But I
am too old, being no less than thirty
seven years, and am married, so, of
course, must stand aside That have
enough income to live on is lucky for
me. but does not alter the case. My
father served as curate nearly all
his life and I thought I might at least
be permitted to do the same, but the
action Of the bishops in ordaining men
Wholesale during the past twenty i've
years has enabled the majority Of
Wears to reject all who, like myself,
are old or married, and SO we are left

WARMED BY WHITE CAPS.


ST. JOSEPH, Mo-. Sept. s.-White
caps threatened to whip Stephen E.
Cavey, a wealthy citizen of this city,
because he boarded his money and
would not properly clothe and feed
his family. Cavey paid no attention
to the threat, and two weeks later the
White caps threatened to hang him.
When he received the last letter,
Cavey took his youngest son. a boy Of

and left the city. It is believed that
he has started to England with the
bov. "A telegram received yesterday
from Fort Wayne says he has been
seen there Cavey attributes the
threats of the White caps to his wife
and children He made statement to
his neighbors and left a letter for
publication to that effect before he
left the city.

NIX VAIN LION LIE cow



A veneraBIs oustom Revived In London GO
Get Pure MILK.
To take a COW from door to door
and milk her In kreseuce of each GUS
toner is the very newest departure
In the London milk business 1t is
one that Is not lacking in boldness
and originality, and it deserves more
success than it is likely, we fear. to
meet with The practice is common
enough in Egypt, where householders
appreciate the ad vantage OF being
able to judge for themselves whether
the COW from which they draw their
supply Looks healthy or the reverse
But then the average Egyptian Is
not the slave of the British urban
superstition which demands that
milk should look thick and yellow In
order to be genuine It is all In vain
TO assure most people In English
towns that pure milk is not of a rich
yellow hue, and that as a matter OF
fact. it ought to be white They
know better than the COW and the
milkmaid combined, and, as they de-
mand yellowness. they are supplied
with it to their hearts content. All
that has to be done, and is done, Is
TO mix various coloring matters with
the fluid, and these pigments usually
are 1nnocuOus. though not always so.
This popular delusion as to the ap-
pearance of real country milk will
probably be fatal to the enterprise Of
the tradesman who is now taking a
personally conducted" COW on
milk round to the houses OF his pat
TOns- 1t will be impossible to induce
the cow to produce milk of the re-
CURED color and consistency. even If
it is fed all day on buttei-cups, sat
from, and yellow chalk, and custom
ers will denOunce it as a bovine
fraud or at all events, as being in a
feeble and unhealthy condition
AS far as the experiment has gone
at present, it is said to be one to
which the cows themselves take
kindly. They do not. as we should
naturally expect. object to having
the milking process prolonged
through several streets, nor will they
give drip the less, even though
crowds OF idle persons assemble to
see the fun. If the system catches
On'' there is no doubt that the Lon
dOner will have cause to be thankful,
because he will have a certainty Of
being supplied with an absolutely
pure product. There would be only
a few miputes between the COW and
the breakfast table, and, though the
first person served would very likely
get the most cream, ana though the
sight of fine herds Of kline being led
through the streets in the early
morning would be strange and un-
usual, yet in time we should all get
to acknowledge the desira bility of
the reform-if it we're not for the
''color blindness to which we have
referred.

The fact was stated by Lieut. Col
TemDler, at the Royal United Serv-

lecture advocating the use of steam
transport for army purposes He
said that extensive experiments had
shown that a train OF wagons can, on
the best roads, make but fifteen to
twenty miles q day, while a traction
engine can transport the same train
sixty tc seventy miles a day. and at
less cost Horses sooner or later give
out, but the engine can keep right

the situation double dangerous, be-
cause Of the presence of his wife and

therefore, took turns each night in
