A PANIC IN CHURCH.-Hermann
Warszawiak, who, as converted Jew,
has been conducting missionary work
among the downtown New York He
brews for the past FIVE years, held a
meeting Saturday afternoon in the
Church of the Sea and Land. that
ended in panic.
The assembly was composed chiefly
OF orthodox Hebrews who had gone to
hear what Mr.. Warszawiak had to say.
When the meeting was over and the
congregation poured out of the church,
the iron gates in front were found to be
)cksd. Some one shouted that the
church was Oh fire. The crowd behind
pushed and those who were in front
were squeezed against the gate.
Outside of the iron railing which sep
arates the church yard from the street
there was crowd of about 200 He
brews. They saw that something had
gone wrong and they sat up a cry. The
people within the church could not see
what was holding back the others, and
they scrambled all the harder.
One man tried to climb over the iron
railing and he fell aud broke his leg.
Several women had Mysteries. The oc'
casion for the locked gates was the
presence of photographer across the
street, who had a camera placed so
that he could take photograph of the
congregation as it came out. 1t was
said that Mr.. Warzawiak wanted pic
ture to show as proof of his usefulness
to the people who support his labors.
When the row was at its height the
photographer picked up his camera and
| fled. Mr.. Warszawiak also disap-
| peared.

THE SOUTHLAND

The beauty of the Southland is not gone forev
ermOre;
Twill come to with roses soon again,
With the soft and dewy mornings and the moon
lit ewes of yore,
And banished will be all this icy pain;
The lilies will be blooming, tho they lie within
their graves
All buried for q season. but will spring
Into new life and spendor and the purple flags
will wave
While the knocking birds, now silent. all will
sing.
The springtime of the Southland is not gone for
evermore;
The rice will wave, the corn it's tassels shake;
The root cts that lie hidden when the frost king
passes oer
Will feel the breath of springtime and awake.
The palm i'll all it's glory will raise it's dropping
head
1t has looked upon the change in silent pain-
The brave old pine trees, steadfast when all their
comrades fled,
Will sing once more their soothing soft refrain
The summer OF the Southland win not pail upon
now;
Wen envy colder climes their Joys no more;
Our lovely lakes and forests, and each EN- 'rald
orange bough
Will hold charm neer seen in it before;
The flowers that in beauty will strew the wood
land ways
We will look upon with ever-new delight;
Oh the sunshine of the heavens will bear healing
in it's rays
For the Southland, after this, It's gloomy night.

THE RECTOR GIFT.

There was a new minister over
the pretty little church in Landis-
vile. And the Reverend Hugh
Meredith, was young, handsome
and a bachelor.
"Them's his only fallin's" OBJ
served Deacon Brown, when they
were discussing the proprietary of
calling Mr.. Meredith to Landis-
vile, can mebbe he'll get over all
three of 'em afore he dies" And
then he laughed knowingly.
Mr.. Meredith was called and
every Sunday he was liked better.
1t was remarkable how the number
of young ladies in the congrega-
ton increased Immediately.
Mother Chesterton, with whom
the new preacher was to board,
openly turned up her nose at them.
"Shameless gals, asserting their
caps at him Already" she said.
"They needn't come a-nosin' round
my door, a-callin' me dear, an
askin' if Mr.. Meredith don't get
very lonely, all by himself! No he
don't when I'm round" And
Mother Chesterton laughed until
her plump shoulders shook. She
could see through those girls with
half an eye.
But they did"come round" and
the gifts they brought for "poor
dear Mr.. Meredith" would have
furnished out a fancy bazaar.
He had embroidery slippers
enough to set up shop with, mon
ogram handkerchiefs, embroidered
neckties, book-marks, chair tides,
pen-wipers, smoking-caps, and CT
gar cases-think of that now, for,
a well-ConduCted young minister
and, in fact SO much trumpery that
Mother Chesterton vowed she
would Danish every rag of it to the
darkest corner of the garnet.
And Mr.. Meredith laughed, and
told her he wished she would.
"There amt but one gal in that
church whose card hain't come in
on some trash or other" she said,
one evening, as she handed him
the latest arrival; satin and lace

girl in Landlsville.
After supper there was a ring at
the door, and Nelly heard the min
ister's voice, asking for her
cit must be some business re-
garding the choir, or he would ask
for papa, as usual" she thought,
as she went into the patlor. And
a wish ran through her heart, which
was bounding little faster than
usual, that he might not know she
had refused to help buy his present
But he would know. Trust l. aura
ZONES for that. Most likely he
knew it already. And that thought
made Nelly's greeting somewhat
constrained.
But Mr.. Meredith was more cor
dial than his wont, and he soon
showed that he had not come on
choir business For, drawing d
small paper from his pocket,
and handing it to Nelly, he said:
"Miss Nelly, was requested to be
the bearer of this. Will you read
it7"
Wondering much, Nelly opened
the note, and read-a fervent mes
sage of gratitude from Annie Reed.
Flushed and confused, she
looked up to find the dark eyes of
the young minister fixed on her,
with a look that made her flush
rosily.
"You see we have found you
OUT" he said, smiling.
81 can'tguess who-who told
stammered Nelly.
"Can't you? Well, Miss Nelly,
l was at Mr.. Jones when you
were there today"
"You? did not see you, Mr..
Meredith?
"Neither did Miss Jones. | had
called to see her father on business,
and was in the library, back of the
parlor, waiting for him. The door
was jar, and | could not help hear
ing what passed in the parlor. l
already knew of Miss Laura's plan,
and, while thank her for her kind
interest, [ cannot excuse her in
justice to Miss Reed.
''After | left the house, | went to
Mr.. Turner's, intending, myself,
to make Mrs. Reed a present Of
the chair. Imagine my surprise
when Mr.. Turner told me that Miss
Bassett had just bought such a
chair, and had it sent to Mrs. Reed.
| went at once to the widows cot
tage, and, sure enough, the chair
had just come. Miss Annie was so
surprised that she could not think
the gift was really intended for
them, and feared there was a mis-
take, until told them what 1 had
discovered. And then-Miss Nelly,
if you had been there, you would
have felt repaid for your kindness,

said Nelly, Sin knowing how glad
Annie would be. So don't let us
say any more about it. Thank you

''How much do l owe your"
asked Miss Laura ind1Herently,
when Annie modestly offered her
request.
"Eight dollars, Miss Jones,
counting the dress I brought home
today"
"Well, you can call again. /
can't pay you today. You may call
next Monday" said Miss Laura.
Annie rose, but her face was
pale and her lips quivered with
disappointment,
"COuldn't you pay me at least a
part?" she ventured to urge. "I've
been trying so hard to save enough
to buy an invalid's chair for my
mother, so she can sit up some of
the time. l have denied myself
almost everything to do it. And
Tomorrow is her birthday, when l
wanted to give it to her. But l
can't buy it unless you pay me. "
"Oh, we'll, that's your lookout.
told you l couldn't today. You
can come next week." and Miss
Laura impatiently turned away.
Poor Annie, unable to speak for
the tears which choked her, left
the room. Laura threw herself
into velvet chair and said:
''These sewing girls are SO
troublesome. But 1 suppose you
have no idea, for you probably do
your own sewing. Now, l have
just eight dollars left in my purse;
and | wish to put that to the min
lster's writing desk. | have nearly
enough collected to buy it, and
thought | would go out this after
noon and select one. | suppose
you have brought your contribu-
ton. do hope you'll be real
generous. 1t is such a worthy
object. Go with me to choose the
desk, can't you? l would be
pleased" and Miss Laura looked
extremely gracious upon the doc
tors daughter.
But Nelly, trying to control her
Indignation, answered:
''Thank you, but l could not
go. l have called to let you know
that | have changed my mind, and
cannot contribute to your gift.
You will be so kind as to excuse
me-"
ooh, certainly, if you wish it,"
said Miss Laura with hauteur, her
gracious manner changing. "Mr.
Meredith will soon learn who his
friends are" CONTEMPORARY.
''Then he will know that am
one of them. But | cannot give
anything" said Nelly firmly.
'Just as you please" said Miss
Laura. She answered Nelly's good
bye with cool nod, and did not
even attend to the door.
Once in the street, Nelly gave
vent to her Indignation
How heartless" she cried. 81
knew she was selfish, but did not
think she would do a thing like
that. Poor Annie! l wish-let me
see" and Miss Nelly walked
slowly, thinking deeply. "Couldn't
