THE WANDERERS RETURN.
4 Pathetic Incident Not Down on the
Auditorium Programme.
CD..-.t4 u-re>


Auditorium Programme.
Detroit Free Press)
The Auditorium was again the scene OF
great throng the other evening that
filed the building on floor and gallery.
The service had Just begun, and Mr..
Bnhorn was singing I'VE Are Waiting
for the Savior" He sang as II heart and
soul were united TO send homo the words.
and the audience listened IN breathless
attention. He had reached the last verse,
and then the last line and as he sung II
out IN tones that filed the building. his
voice shook with emotion. Just then
man glanced in the door. withdrew his
head quickly, pushed 1t In again, and then
tiptOed quietly 20 a seat. He was d.
lapidated and out nj the elbows. and
gave every Indication OF having been
down on his luck for months together.
He looked warily at the well-dressed
people about him, and then at his own
frayed and tattered clothes. Then q
thought seemed 10 come TO his mlnd-a
thought that he was out OF place, and
that perhaps he should not have entered.
DR.. Chapman asked a minister 10 pray,
and a petition was offered FOR a con-
tinuance OF the manifestations OF the
Holy Spirit.
The man listened with eyes wide open,
and near the close OF the prayer he drew
his sleeve across his eyes. Not very far
away from him sat a woman in scanty.
worn attire. The bonnet she wore was OF
the cheap kind. soiled. crushed, and long
since out OF date. There was pathetic ex-
preston In her eyes that spoke OF hard
ships and disappointment. Among the
great throng OF people mono seemed more
desolate than she.
what wilt thou say when He shall
punish thee" were the words which Dr.
Chapman announced as his text. Then he
began to tell OF the day OF wrath; he
| emphasized the awfulness OF the day OF
| judgment and warned his hearers OF the
all-pervading presence OF God. There was
no escaping His eye or the Judgment TO
come. If you take the wings of the
morning and fly away TO the uttermost
parts OF the earth. behold. lie Is there;
IL you descend into hell. 10. He is there"
rang out the evangelist In triumphant
| tones.
The man In tattered clothes was all
attention, the woman's head was bowed.
what Will you do In the day OF judg-
ment? Do you know what II - 10 pass

drew. and awful In its details. BE not
deceived. God Is not moeked Whatso-
ever q man soweth, that shall he also

knows not the day nor the hour when lie
may visit him.
The audience was still as grave. and
the sounds Of the street reached the
platform.
The tattered stranger stared at the
! speaker with tear-stained eyes; the
woman's head was stu bowed.

The MaIsdy ot the eay-Nervousness.
lSt. James tazettel

DIR. William Erb, tho famous psycholo-
gist, Of the University OF Heidelberg, has
Just delivered, on the occasion OF the an
niversary OF that institution, a lecture
dealing with the question why growing
nervousness is one OF the features OF our
century. According to report given by
the Daily News, Professor Erb says:
"As the nervous system represents the
basis OF the whole vital energy. II Is ma
tuTal that all the events OF life must af-
feet II, and the great revolutions in pc
litical and economical, in social and reli-
gious life, and In scientific and artistic
aims, could not iail to have strong
influence on the mind and brain OF man.
The most intense and common forms OF
nervousness are hystericS-which Is also
increasing among thu male sex-hypo-
chrondria. and. above all. neurasthenia.
No organic or anatomic change In the
nervous system has beer proved by these
diSesses. They only represent abnormal
conditions OF the mind and brain. Neu-
rasthenia is disease peculiar TO the edu-
Gated classes, originating In oyer-exer-
ton Of the brain. Over~burcen<ng or the
mind begins In grammar schools. and Is
Increased by the method OF teaching en-
ployed by philologicaily rather than peda-
gogically educated masters. Added TO
rs, the time necessary for resting the
mind and for the development OF the
bodily health Is much too short. Youth
enjoys too early the pleasures Of society
life. which more and mere tsnd To over
excite. the Nervous system. Poetry has

is that every board and placard shall be
carried ct a distance of not less than
thirty yards from any other carried In

another IS that every board or placard
shall be carried in the carriageway close

LEGAL LOVERS vows.

An English Paper Proposes TO Simplify
Breach of Promise Suits.
The London Spectator. moved by the
painful spectacle of the modern breach-of-
promise case, proposes novel eXpedient
In order to overcome the difficulties which
such suits present. 1t says: There would
be one very simple method of tightening
the task OF the jury. which would also
afford TO young women and their guar
dams means of ascertakning whether the
lover had any serious intention OF de-
veloping into a husband or not Let no
promise of marriage be held valid unless
1t be made in writing upon properly
stamped paper. IL the plaintiff could gro
duce n formal promise OF this Kind, there
would be no need TO go into all the his
tory Of doubtful courtship, or to con
slider any other factor in the assessment
of damages than the respective incomes
OF the contracting parties.
or course, it will be objected that SUCH
a proposition is injurious to all the ro-
nance of courtship and marriage. But
where, we ask. is the romance in nine ont
OF ten breach-of-promise cases that find
their way into the law courtsY These
cases are hardly ever brought except by
people whose affections have not been
deeply engaged in their acceptance OF

rers. and moro than nine-tenths of the
trave, is OF second and third-class. The
rate OF speed is uniformly about twenty
miles an hour. The trains are run on
what is known as the "staf" system, and
a train is not allowed TO leave station
where 1t meets another until the conduc-
tor has received from the conductor of
the other train symbol called a STAFF,

graph, the passenger can buy on the plat
form at any station a teapot full OF tea

pretty enough to bring a quarter in this
country, and the cup would be cheap at
10 cents. You buy the whols 'outfit,' and
could carry it away II you pleased. AS
a rule the pot and cup are left in the car,
and about 90 per cent. OF them are re-
covered by tie vender.
