Passing an Examination.

The story of we'll known bishop
which reached mo the other day seems
good enough for publication. The bishop
was one day examining batch Of dea-
cons for priests orders. After the the
oretical part of the examination, he said
to them: Gentlemen, you have passed
q most excellent examination in theory.
l should now like to see You do some
thing practical. shall go into the next
room and personate sick man. You
will come in, one by one, address mo as
q sick parishioner, and say something
comforting. When his lordship had re-
tired. the candidates were in some con.
fusion, and nobody cared to begin. but
at last q mad Irishman volunteered to be
the first. He entered the study and ap-
preached the bishop. who was lying
with woebegone air OIL the sofa. and
thus addressed him: ''Oh, Anthony,
Anthony! The drink again! Shure it
will be the death of We! Turn from your
evil ways before it's too late and be a
man. This is said to be the last time
that the bishop held a practical exami-
nation. London Truth.

was given to Mark Wild BY John Nc
Bride, and which, as claimed by Wild,
was a bride. He as q Debs man was. or
had been, leading q strike of Hooking

way company had refused to listen to
him, and he had John Mcbride 60 to the

money to Mcbride for the reason that
Mcbride had represented the railway
