by the horns and this proves still re-
mains. He can lift very heavy weights
with ease. He is a fine boxer and
could probably knock out many a
champion Of the prize ring, but Of
course he is bishop and would not be
up to that sort of thing.
The question naturally suggests
itself: What do the milionares of the
bishops flock think of these doings of
his? It is well-known fact that near
" all the prominent Croesi of New
York are under the prelate's spiritual
tutelage. There are the Astors, the
Vanderbilts, the Crugers, and the rest.
Many of them are owners of the very
property which the bishop will find so
disgracefully unclean. That must
make the situation rather embarrassing.
However, whether they think well or
i'll of the bishop on account Of what he
is doing, makes no difference He will
continue his course and turn the Sums
inside out
The brother prelates of Potter are
likely to profit by the example he is
setting. Already there are reports of
similar step on the part of the bishop
Of Illinois Chicago and the bishop of
Colorado. Quite diary of DR.. Pot
ter's experiences is being kept by him
self, and the full record of his progress
will ultimately be published for the
guidance Of those who initiate him
herea. er
The permanence of the results which
the bishop will obtain is a matter OF
conjecture. But it is an epoch in the
history of the average slum denizen to
talk to . prelate.

he is visited are, as a rule. Of the odd
est kind. One poor Russian woman
wanted to know If she would be ar
rested for having aided her husband to
escape from the police with cart in
which her husband had some peddlers'
commodities. A girl who had been TO
the mission at the cathedral was any
ious TO talk to the bishop. She spoke
broken English and did not want TO
talk abou. anything in particular. She
was simply curious. A young rough
came in TO get drink of water He
was inclined to say many irrelevant
things and TO be rather critical lie
asked for a drink. The bishop cheer
fully poured out glass OF water and
handed it over. The young rough
swiG1ed it and then to his astonish-
,nent the prelate poured out a second
tumblerfrl and drank it of himself.
The bishop paid 60 further attention
to his odd visitor. but began converse
ton with one of the other arrivals and
the rough departed in a bewiidered
frame of mind.
When the bishop goes on. walking
his attire is of the plainest and most
inconspicuous black. There have been
circulated every now and then rather

which is spiritual. 1t is by this power
given to US of modifying, identifying

shall have given to 1t qualities as pure
and beautiful as the body. There are
dirty bodies and dirty souls; beautiful
bodies and beautiful souls; pure bodies
and pure souls; but in all cases the
natural body comes first, sfterward the
spiritual, and it is our business in the
matter of education so to master con-
struction as to make the most perfect

in his case. He waits upon himself and

Bishop Potter has taken to going

side stopping place. The people all
know him. He walks up and down
horrible pairs Of stairs, asks the names
of children and looks at the drainage Of
tenements. This latter circumstance
has caused a rumor to circulate that

could not be a greater misrepresentation.
Bishop Potter is never eccentric. His
costume on the East side is a plain frock
coat and trousers to match.
Some idea of the uses to which the
bishop WIN put the experience he ac-
quires on the East side may be valuable
as an indication of the ultimate outcome
of the mission. Bishop Potter has for
q long time had in mind the total an
Inhalation Of the slum district and its
regeneration into something like q
place st for human habitation. With
this end in view he has approached
those known to be in sympathy with
such q movement The project is to Sc
cure considerable plot of land in the
very heart Of the slum region. Upon
this sort of peoples palace will be
built with quite a garden and any num-
Der Of fountains, children's playhouses
R1d things of taat sort. Such scheme
seemed rather crude and conventional
to the bishop, however, and in order to
get clearer view of the needs of the
slum population his sojourn among
them is being made.
The female members of the bishops
Own household, that is to say the wife
and daughters he has at home, do not
forget him. Mrs. Potter is seen good
deal in society, and her husbands ex-
petition to the slums somewhat inter
fered with her summer plans. But she
heartily approved of his idea. He re-
ceives every day some package from
home-a book, a package of ielly-the
bishops wife is famed as housewife
and can make remarkably fine jelly.
His daughter has been taught to cook
and cook well. The soup eaten by the
bishop is often Of his daughters max
ing. The little attentions thus paid
him by his own people are not among
tGe least of announcements he re-
ceives in the slums
There was some discussion Of the
possible effects upon the bishops
health of his visit to such odd regions.
But the prelate continues his gymnas-
tics as usual He can handle dumb
bells with the best young fellow in any
college of athletics. He is or was once
a very decent shot and can ride we'll
into the bargain. A noticeable charac-
teristic of the bishop is the wonderful
strength Of his arms, chest and Shout
ders. He once held young bull down

SORTING THE LIVE CRABS.

What the Man with the Wooden Tenxs
Says About Them.
The job Of sorting out crabs as.they
come from the fishing smacks at Full
ton market is one that would have no
particular charms for q nervous man.
The box wriggles all over with blue
and white legs and pinchers, and while
q hand thrust in would probably re-
ceive no very painful injuries, still it
would be more than most folk would
be willing to undertake, says the New
York Herald.
The man who does it has a pair Of
wooden tongs, with which he picks up
each crab and looks at it before he
drops il into the sack. If the erusta-
,cesn wildly waves his claws the man
counts him and passes on TO another.
But once in awhile he stops as he gets
q string Of three or four holding ON to
each others legs. He squeeses body
about amidships and if it doesn't feel
just right he disengages it and drops it
into another sack.
"What do you do that for?'
"Thirty-seven, thirty-eight-what?"
"What do you squeeze them so for?"
The man looks as astonished !as il
you had asked him what ferry boats
were used for, and answers: ITO see if
they're alive. Thirty-nine, forty"
What do you do with the dead
ones?"
The man had got to the bottom of
the box before he took the trouble to
answer. Then he gathered up the
twenty or thirty loose claws and legs
which had come loose and dropped
them into the bag. Then he said:
Garbage" shouldered the sack OF
squirming crabs and went on into the
fish store.

Diamond Setting for Tools.

In working hard materials with dia-
mouds set in metal there has always
been a difficulty in preventing the
stone from being ripped out by the
strain. An effective method of doing
this has been devised. A little block
of steel, suitably notched to receive
the diamond, is brought to red heat,
the diamond is inserted, and the block
is passed through small roll The
diamond is thus firmly imbedded in
the block, though projecting slightly
beyond its surface, and deies the
strain of the most exacting work

WHERE THE BALL WENT.

aSpectator's Pocket

Lost Sphere In Cricket Match foond In

Cricket balls have been lost in many
curious ways, such as by being struck
into a passing train, into crows and
other birds nests, down cbimneys and
steeples, and it is likely, saysthe Leeds
Mercury, that this instance adds one
more to this class of singular events
Ingrow, on their own ground, were
playing Wilsden-tbe leaders in the
West Bradford league and when j.
Smith (prof) of the latter team. was in,
he struck ball to square-leg. The ball
went to the boundary. passing under

Seeing that It was a boundary hit, the
spectators began TO look for the ball,
but they could not find II. Then some
of the cricketers joined in the search
but the ball could not he seen, though
they made a close scrutiny of all the
