Sam Jones Latest.

Hartwell, Ga. Sun:-An amusing
incident occurred at the close of Sam
Jones' sermon at Pulaski the other
day. Stepping down from the pull
pit, folding his hands across his
breast, and looking solemnly over
the audience, the great r~evivalist
said:
81 want all the women in this crowd
who have not spoken Il harsh word
harbored an unkind thought toward
their husbands for a month past to
stand up"
One old woman apparently on the
shady side OF go stood up.
"Come forward and give me your
hand" said the preacher.
The woman did so, ]whereupon
Jones said:
"Now turn around and let the aud
fence see the best hooking women in
the country"
After taking her seat the reyivalist
addressed the men:
':NOw ! want all the men in this
crowC who have not spoken q harsh
word or harbored an unkind thought
toward their wives for u month past
to stand up
Twenty-seven great big EtrappinG
fellows hoped out os tie audience
with all alacrity OF champaign corks.
Come forward and give me your
hand, my dear boys"
Jones gave each one q vigorous
shake, after which he ranged all OF
them side by side in front OF the pull
pit and facing the audience.
He looked them over carefully and
sOlemnly, an thea, turning around to
the audience, he said:
81 va tyOu al to take good look
at the tyanty-Sevan big ge30 liars in

FOaDlNG A CHINESE RIVER.
Pits Dug In the Streams Bed BY Guides
to Trap the Unwary.

Traversing the country from south
west to northeast and in a pouring rain,
we visited the villages Of Si-kou ying,
Hao-kwei-ying and Sang vein. Here the
women, dressed in their best clothes,
stood watching us on the doorsteps,
which would have been quite a pretty
sight. with their multicolor jupons and
trousers, had the effect not been partly
spoiled by the horrible deformity Of
their feet squeezed into microscopic
shoes. / possess q pair of these shoes as
worn by q mandarin's wife, and tho
length of them is only 3 inches. Toward
noon we reached Ya-lo-wan, on the
banks of tho Hung-ho river, a miserable
village on q minuscule hill of yellow
earth. The river had to be waded.
A Chinaman-a beggar, | thought
volunteered to take animals and mcn
safely across for a sum of money, for he
said there were large holes in mo .iyer
bed, in which our animals would have
lost their footing had we crossed by
ourselves. / would not employ him, az
/ hate to be imposed upon by humbugs,
and knowing the little way which these
gentlemen have Of digging large holes
on purpose in the river bed while dry in
summer, SO as to extort money from
timid travellers, I proceeded to sell"
him.
l guided my mules not right across
tho water, for the holes are generally
dug where most unaware people are
likely TO cross, but a few yards farther
up, therefore landing every one safe
o the other side, with the exception of
one donkey, who, in strict similarity
with all tho evil spirits of China, insist
ed on going on his own account in a
straight line in front Of his nose, with
the result that when he reached the
middle of the stream he fell into one
of the holes, and with the weir ut Of the
load he was carrying disappe' red. Only
the point of his ears could be seen wag-

Immanue. Church

The service yesterday morning at I'm
manuel church was a most joyful one, it
being the occasion of DR.. Chiche ster S
public welcome home after his long alb
sence. The great congreg CATION arose spon-
taneously as the pastor entered the church
and remained standing until he haa
taken his seat in the pulpit.
The sermon was q tender and appro-
pirate one from the first chapter of Ephes-
ians, which the Doctor termed An Alb
sent Pastors Prayer for His Flock. " The
central thought was the ndwellng of the
Son OF God in the believing heart. and
toward the close the Doctor paid most
eloquent tribute to the late Judge Minor,
who was an elder in the church.
Dr. Chichester has been greatly benefit
ed by his vacation and is taking hold of
his work again with renewed vigor
