BARS PROGRESSIVE EUCHRE,
st. Paul Pastor Dcnounces the Ladies',
Game as harmful Gamhlinr

Tvs e@"A u estoT DCnOunceS the Ladies'
Game as Harmful Gambling.
Riding the other day in streetcar, [
sat beside two women who talked loudly
about card-:playing and what delightful
time they had had in playing progressive
euchre. One of the women had a mack of
cards IN her hands. l assure YOU that
blushed for these women" said Rev. Wat
son b. Willard OF Plymouth Conversational
Church, st; Paul, in the course Of a sermon
on ambling."
The preacher discussed gambling in its
erect on the character of the individual
ana It's slnfulness, says the Pioneer Press,
and took occasion to attack the habit of
card-paying in society. He made the pro-
gressive euchre party the object of some
pointed remarks.
There mus be total abstinence as re-
gards gambling as we'll as liquor. 1t took
many Weary years to get to the total absti-
nence stage OF the tempe rance agitation,
ana that must also be attained in card
playing. Progressive euchre must be ban
lshed, and until that is done and our
women have set their faces against cards
ana gambling in every form we cannot
nope for better things. Put this practice
away from you; be as the noble woman
who refuses to give wine to her guests, and
by sapping at the foundation of gambling
It may be made abhorrent to the young"

THE ARMENIAN QUESTION.

It Is Causing Grave Anxiety Throughout
 Turkey-Stories Told by Traders.
 All sources of information in Con- stantinople and other places in the sul- tan's domain agree that the situation throughout the Turkish empire war rants the gravest anxiety. The principal cause without doubt is the Armenian question. Business i'll many places i'll the interior of Asia Minor is almost en- tirely suspended. Merchants in the cap ital are afraid to send goods into the in- terior In spite of every effort to pre- vent news from reaching the capital it triekles i'll.
 Traders hear of long strings of pris- oners marched into Syria and elsewhere in irons. Dozens of Armenian merchants are in prison. The prisons are full. Turks are allowed to threaten Armeni- ans with impunity everywhere. Most significant and dangerous of all is the wild stuff Turkish papers are allowed toeprint with the object of exciting the ignorant Mohammedan masses into ha- tired of Christians. It requires only 8 spark to set fire to the finder of fanati- cism throughout Turkey. and it is eyi- dent that the government already re- pents it's tolerance in this respect = Constantinople Letter

Pestilence Will FoIIow War.

A new aspect of the war in the east is suggested by Colonel Maurice. He calls attention to the Chinese claim that there are massed 300, 900 men around Peking. This force has already been there for some time, and it is likely to remain for several months longer. It is an elementary maxim of military tac- tics that large force of men should not be gathered until short time be- fore they are to be employed; otherwise an epidemic resulting from enforced lack of sanitary arrangements is almost inevitable. Therefore, says Colonel
 Aaurice, as soon as warm weather be- gins in the spring there will be most frightful outbreak of pestilence in some form or other, probably in many forms. but beginning with malignant typhus in it's most virulent shape. He suggests that while there is yet time all foreign CTS in Peking be withdrawn under ade- quate protection. United Service Mag aZine

Tobacco In South Carolina,

Ten years ago not a pound of tobacco was grown in South Carolina for mar ket There were stray patches here and there, and forehanded people in some of the upper counties of the state possibly produced enough of a not superior quail ity to supply strictly home demand, but tobacco growing as money mak ing industry was unknown ill the state. Last year l 1000, 900 pounds of tobaef ) of the best varieties and some of the finest quality were grown and sold i'll the county of Darlington alone. Tho acreage devoted to the cultivation of the plant was not per cent of the aoreas devoted to the cultivation of cotton, yet the value of the tobacco product was 16 per cent of the value of all the cotton raised i'll the county, The money value of the tobacco crop of the county was $l2O, 900. 0.-Charleston News and Cou rier.

A BIO. 900 Bachelor nnnoe.

Of course everybody is talking about the Hitchcock Bulkley dance.
 It is said to have cost those young bachelors about $10, 900, and, as there were only about 200 people present., each person had to absorb about $50 worth of pleasure and refreshment.
 It was announced that every one could order what he or she chose for supper. It was not surprising then to see terra pin and oanvasback ducks washed down with rare old elarets and champagnes costing $S a bottle.
 Some of the dudes either deliberately or stupidly misunderstood the carte blanche idea of supper, and, when the walters came to them for orders, asked for new dress suits or diamond scarf pins.
 l should think that one dance like this on such an elaborate scale would last society for long time.
 Like everything else remarkable, Aladdin's marvellous lamp gets tire. some when swung around too promiscu- ously. .-Cholly Knickerbooker in New York Recorder.

Suing For Damages From spooks.

One of tho most peculiar lawsuits ever filed in the United States is on the court docket at Charlottesville, Ind.
 Three years ago passenger train on tha Monon route was wrecked near the home of John Elliott, north of the city.
 The train rolled down an embankment,
 and one coach was burned, five persons killed and 70 injured. The injured were taken to the house of Elliott. Now he wants $1, 900 damages from the railroad because, he alleges, the health of his family has been bad ever since the wreck, and this is caused by the sound of groans from the injured that vihrate through his house every night, and when they go outdoors at night the Spirits" of those killed in this wreck can be seen walking up and down the track in front of his house. He wants all these things stopped and damages for the annoyance which has caused sickness ill his family. He says he has dreamed about the wreck every night since it happened. - St. Louis Republic.

THE FRENCH WILL REMAIN.
Recent Statistics Upset the Calculations os
 German and English Prophets.

necenb Statlstics upset tae Calculations Of
 German and English Prophets.
 It would be misfortune for the world if the French people were to disappear from it. We have heard for good while of the small birth rate in France, under which the births per year were less numerous than the deaths, and we have seen computations by statisticians that if this disproportion between the births and deaths were kept up for certain period of years there would not be Frenehman on the face of the earth at the end of that period. We would have been sad over this prospect if we had believed it could ever be realized, for the world would be f1atter than it is if the French were not ill it. A crowd of Germans or Englishmen or even Irishmen could never make up for the lost French.
 We are happy to be able to relieve any apprehension which may have been created by the statistieians France her self, ever ready for any emergency, has come to the relief of the world. The French government has just issued the population returns of 1898 (we ought to have those of 1894 by this time) and they are joyful. There was an excess of births over deaths in the year 1893, not q heavy excess but still encouraging The number of French i'll France at the end of the year was greater by 2, 146 than at the beginning. Tho record looks all the better when we compare it with that of the previous three years, during which the births fell 80, 900 behind the deaths. It is record which gives evil dence that the tide has turned, and, if last year was as good year as the pre- vious one, the grow tn of population must be such as to knock out all the computations of the pessimistie statisti- clans, most of whom, by tho way, are either Germans or Englishmen.
 1t is first rate news for France. The army must be kept up. It is good news for the world. We could not afford to lose the French. How dull old Europe would be without French politics and playwriters and presidents and artists and noyelists and women, without French esprit or pensee or elan or ia tigue or other things that belong almost exclusively to Franeei
 France and the French are great. The Germans, English, Italians, West Af- rioans and others had better not indulge in any hope of the disappearance of the French. Now York Sun

A MEAN PIECE OF BUSINESS.
An Incident That Shakes Ones Faith In
 the Chivalry of the Modern Man.


 This is bit of genuine scandal. Ey- erybody likes scandal It is always such comfort to find oneself little better than one's neighbor This bit of scandal IS true too. There is young man now living in Chicago who used to live in Washington. He was engaged to a Washington girl, but rumors concerning her reached him out in Chicago. They said, these rumors, that she had gone out to supper after the theater, and looking on the wine when 1t was red had become aSst little 'Doisterous.
 Her immaculate fance came to Wash ington. He did not say word to her of the rumors which had filled his soul with horror, but he took her to the the- ater and to supper afterward.
 The Widow Cliquot was the third party at the supper and the girl, like every other woman on earth, likes champagne. Her sweetheart urged her to drink, assuring her it would do her no harm whatever. She drank In fact, she conjugated the verb to drink in more than one tense. She became un- mistakably intoxicated. Then the gal lant young man slipped her engagement ring off, bundled her into carriage and took her homo. She hasn't seen him since. Of course he couldn't think of marrying that sort of girl, you know.
 It is things like that that keep one's kelief in the innate chivalry of the modern gentleman from dying. un- derstand tho man considers it a tremen- dous joke, and you may be able 10 sec where the laugh comes in. am not = Washington Post.

1t Stood In the Way of the Recovery Oi
 the Body of One of the EIbe Victims.
 Dickens, who so often studied with delighted interest the applications of English law to particular cases, would have found a subject worthy of his grimmest humor in the fact, oabled the other day from London, that when the master of a fishing smack, cruising near where the Elbe went down. saw floating in the water a dead body, which was doubtless that of victim of the great disaster, he made no effort to rescue it from the waves and carry it ashore for identification and burial.
 Instead he sailed past and away from the doleful bit of flotsam as quickly as circumstances would permit. not, as one might suppose, because he was q partio- ularly hard hearted and cold blooded mariner, but because recently, after landing body, he had been forced to pay the funeral expenses Curious as that experience had been and delight fully illustrative as it was of crown CTS quest" wisdom, the captain had no inclination to repeat it. One lesson had been enough to teach him the great principle that common sense cannot be allowed to interfere with consistency in the enforcement of parliamentary act, and what ill comparison with that is the continued agonized uncertainty of some German wife or mother?-New York Times

THE SMALLEST BOOK.
A Late Parisian Publication That Is Smaller
 Than Postage Stamp.


 Than Postage Stamp.
 The smallest book ever printed has just been issued by Messrs. Pairault of Paris. It is the story of Perrault, Little Hop O My Thumb.
 This diminutive volume contains four engravings, and it is printed ill movable type. It contains 80 pages of printed matter. The book is 38 millimeters long by 28 millimeters wide. The thickness of this volume is six millimeters and it's weight is five grams.
 The dwarf book" of the Chicago ex- hibition could be held on a postage stamp of the Columbian variety, but it is quite surpassed by this product of tho French press The little French volume, with it's Illustrations and it's 80 pages of printed matter, is not much larger tha cent piece.
 It is complete book in every respect, the binding being perfect, the pages duly numbered and the titlo page ap- bearing with all the formality of the most dignified volume The pages can only be read by tho use of a microscope, but then it is found that the proofread- ing has been excellently done.
 Several French sWells are carrying these volumes inside their watch covers. A copy presented to French library has been duly entered i'll the catalogue and placed on the shelves. St. Louis Post Dispatch.
