MEMoRIAL sERvIcEsL LAsT NIGHT
G. A. r. and woman's Relief Corps At
the Congregational Church--An
Eloquent Sermon.


The Congregational church was filed
last evening to its utmost capacity by an
audience gathered to observe memorial
services. Long before the time of OPEN
ing the church was well filed, the seats
in the front and middle of the church
being reserved for the Grand Army vet
Grams and Woman's Relief Corps.
Promptly at s O'Clock these organizations
marched into the church with the
national colors borne before them. The
number of veterans is each year growing
less and it is fitting that increased honor
be shown them as the years hasten to
the last roll call. Upon occasions like
that of last night the younger generation
is reminded of the sacrifice their fathers
underwent to give them the heritage of
a united country.
Two large fags-one draped in grace
full folds in the the right hand corner of
the church and the other wrapped around
pillar-made pretty decoration, while
numerous vases of roses placed around
the pulpit added much to the effect.
The decorating was done under the
supervision of a young ladies' committee
composed of the Misses Eta Story, Alma
Schmidt and Laura Thompson.
The singing by the choir was very fine
and enjoyed by the audience. The reg
ular church choir was augmented by the
assistance of several from other church
choirs. Those who sang last night were
Mrs. Huntington, Mrs. Varney, Miss
Sampson, Miss Gwilt, Miss Schmidt, DIR.
Doane, Mr.. Davenport, Mr.. johnson,
Mr.. MacLafferty and Mr.. Crandall. Two
anthems were sung by the choir. Miss
Gwilt of Portland, sang the solo,
''Nearer, My God, to Thee,'' very ac-
ceptably.
The address by Mr.. Curtis we would
not attempt to describe. It's compost
ton was so rich in thought and graceful
in expression, while its delivery was
marked with such an intensity of feeling
that the impression made upon his
hearers was unusually great. Especially
eloquent were the passages describing
the night on the battlefield of the
Wilderness, when Grant riding around
the camp was seen by the tired soldiers
and a cheer broke forth that was heard
in the enemy's camp. Grants face was
set towards Richmond and the soldiers
knew that the days of inactivity and re-
treat were over and that victory lay
almost within their grasp. Mr.. Curtis
preached from the text Guard well that
which is given thee" and a more
mastery effort would be hard to find
The exercises closed with the singing by
the congregation of my Country, 'Tis Of
Thee, . followed by a benedict by Rev
Mr.. Hazel of the Christian church.

rendered his first service in life saving,
and there ho still remains, steadily re-
sisting every induoement to return to
his former master. Every alternate
night he sets out with ono of the first
patrol and accompanies him until the
patrolman from the next station below
is met, when he joins the latter and
proceeds with him to that station, where
he remains until the first watch of the
next night, when he returns to his own
station in the same manner. These self
assumed duties he performs with the pe-
oulfar gravity of demeanor that distin-
guishes his species, changing his station
daily, for some good and sufficient dog
reason no doubt, while very sensibly
keeping but one watch each night.

A DUTCH FUNERAL CAR.

A funeral car in Holland is the
queerest and most medieval looking
of conveyances. Imagine the horses
entirely hidden under long, sweeping
draperies of black cloth, like the
steeds in the illustrations to Froissart.
These draperies reach to the sground.
and all that is seen of the horse is his
solemn eye peering through the eye
holes. The car itself is driven by a
coachman draped also in black, with
perfectly huge shovel hat, rather like
that of "Don Bassilio' in the Barber
of Seville, only much more exaggerated;
while the coffin, or its absence, is
completely hidden from view by the
mass of heavy black draperles that
descend from the roof of the car nearly
to level with the wheels. On the
whole, the car looks like perambulat-
ing mass of black cloth. and is neither
beauteous nor imposing. though dis
tinctly antique in appearance. Letter
from La Hague.

A TERRIBLE COSMETIC.

The desire to make her complexion
more beautiful has caused a once
proud mind to be shrouded in the
darkest gloom. Miss Mary Belcher
two years ago was a bright. dark
haired, happy, rosy-cheeked girl. One
day she read in an advertisement of a
cosmetic paste that would make the
complexion perfect She bought some
and used it for two weeks as directed.
At the end of that time she was hor-
rified to notice the appearance of a
black beard all over, her face. 1t grew
rapidly, and in short time she had a
heavy set of whiskers. She grew hys-
terical, and about six months ago her
mind began to fail under the constant
worry. She is now mental wreck.
Miss Belcher is 30 years old, and lives
with her parents at Sugar Grove, But
ler county, Kentucky.

The Sensation Produced by an Elephant
Running Away.
Nothing but ride ON an earthquake
could be compared to the sensation of be-
ing run away with by an elephant.
Nothing stops his wild rush, and he does
not swerye for an obstacle, but goes
straight at it, A few shakes fling off
everything ON his back, and the rider
has but second or two in which to
make up his mind which overhanging
branch he will cling to or if he will risk
throwing himself off. A broken neck
would be the certain consequence of re-
naming. AS for stopping him, some

But when it suddenly jumps aside like
flea you imagine for n moment that
the ultimate terrestrial cataclysm has
gone off.
Tho Malays never wholly trust their
elephants and were nervous at my IA
miliarities with mine, n sweet tempered
old female ON which rode hundreds of
miles. During the midday halt used
to call her up, and she would come and
stand with one foot on each side of my
chest as l lay on my back and fed her
with bananas. l was never angry with
her but once, when she tried to kill the
cook.
On one occasion little elephant of
our party, running behind it's mother,
teased her beyond endurance and she
turned and gave him shove that land
ed him feet uppermost at the bottom of
a deep brook. For two hours he scream
ed like a steam whistle while we were
all engaged in getting him out.
Every night when we reached camp
and the loads were taken off each driver
would hobble his beast by tying its front
legs together with rattan SO that it could
only hop with both together. Then a
huge wooden bell was hung around it's
neck, and it was turned loose to wander
in the jungle. All night long the faint
dong, dong of these bells made mourn
full noise around the camp. At daybreak
each driver tracked his elephant by the
sound, often going many miles for him.

A GIRL AND A BARREL OF PITCH.

A young girl named Danahey was
standing on barrel picking apples
near her home on Chestnut street, Win
stead, Conn, the other evening when
the bead of the barrel gave way and
allowed her to fall through. Charles
Cowan keeps his implements for build
ing sidewalks in the lot where the tree
is, and fortunately for the girl, the
barrel she fell into, was full of pitch.
Four men who saw the girls predica-
ment tried in vain to pull her out. and
not till they had pried off the hoop of
the barrel could they release her. The
girl stood up to her waist in the pitch
for half an hour-the next three hours
she labored to get the stuff off.

ITS q wonder to me-, said the dear
old lady from the country as she stood
waiting ON the crossing, THAT them
electric cars don't run off the track
sometimes.
"They do, ma'am," said the small

tunity.
Mercy me, child, and how do the
people keep from being u over?"
They don't, ma'am. When M O.

LA, sakes, child! Let me get up on

the truth"
"S'hcpe to die, ma'am! But you
amt any safer on them steps than in
the streets. When they take u notion,
them cars can jest climb any steps in
this town. Honest 1njun, ma'am!'
The old lady turned and looked at the
box. She saw a frank face, on the sur
face Of which a few freckles fioated,
mild blue eyes filled with innocence and
Just a twinkle Of mischief.
But she had seen boys before and
knew the trade mark. Before she had

Play that you are moth,r, dear,

Play that we sit in the corner here,
Just as we used to long ago;
Play so, we lovers two,
Are just as happy as can be,
And I'll say, '"I love you!' to you,
And you say. ~ love YOU" to mel
~ love you!'' we both shall say,
All in earnest and all in play.
Or. play that you are the other one
That sometimes came and went away,
And play that the light OF years agone
Stole into my heart again todayl
Playing that you are the one | knew
In the days that never again may be,
III say, II love you!" to you,
And you say, II love you!" to mel
II love you!" my heart will say
To the ghost of the past come back today.
Or, play that you sought this nesting place
For your own sweet self, with that duaI
guise
Of your pretty mother in your face
And the look OF that other in your eyes!
so the dear old love shall live anew,
AS l hold my darling on my knee,
And I'll say. II love YOU" to you,
And you'll say, II love you'll" to me!

And 90 when we pretend to play!
