The will OF Nathan \. Chedsey. of
New York. contained some peculiar
provisions. Mr.. Chedsey was Il
lawyer Of the old school. For twenty
years he had an Office on the top
floor of Il dingy building in City Hall
place The furniture was Old-fashiOn-
ed and everything was as plain as
could he. His shingle was a small
one and it became so discOlOred by
dirt rs to be almost indistinguishable Bile.
But the old lawyer did good bust
ness and saved his money, leaving, it
is estimated. about $4,000. The will
was drawn with the greatest care. and
if its broken by relatives it probably
will not be his fault. One of its pc
culiar provisions is that $500 is To go
to a church in little town in Con-
necticut Of which his mother was Il
member. y portion of the income is
to be devoted to the salary Of the min
lister. and. if that minister is as poor
rs a good share of the country clergy
are. it will BE- d. gOdsend 20 him.
Another provision is that to his
managing clerk he gives $500 for the
education Of the man. 5 son. and he
adds that it is his wish that the boy
may he educated without reference to
sectarian preiudices. II is supposed
that this means that he prefers that
he b. sent to the public schools. as
Mr. Chedsey was much attached to
the public system. To the clerk him
self. Mr.. O'Brien. ne holds out the
promise of wealth and a good business.
The clerk is to manage the law practice
for five years. and if at the end of
that time the executors think he has
done the work honestly and properly.
the business Is to become his absolute

membered by moderate sums. 1t is
doubtful if man ever disposed of his
money in way better designed to
make it useful and prOductive.-Bu

ing game in the daytime. The work
Is carried on in summer and winter.
and during the latter season the bright
fires are rather pleasant sights. They
illuminate the dark forests. and keep
the cold out by their intense heat.
The burners cook their sweet potatoes

Goals. and dine sumptuousIy every
day. Ealf 4 dozen or more may be
long to one camp. and they while away
the time in hunting, singing and card
playing. The negroes invariably
have their banjoe~ in camp. and to
stuble upon one Of the companies on
a dark night impresses one strangely.
The fiickering light. rolirking. dancing
crowds around i and the twang of the
banjo are not calculated TO quiet your
apprehensiOns unless the true charac-
ter of the camp is known beforehand.
In this business of burning charcoal
the capitalist has not entered. There

work is conducted chiefly by indi-
viduals. many OF them poor. The
woods are free, and with an AK and a
box of matches any one can start a
charcoal camp in the South. Most
of them can get their living in hunting
and fishing, and the actual cost of
board is reduced to the luXuries of Il
pipe. tobacco. whisky and Il suit OF
old clothes occasionally. Every week
or two a travelling Methodist preacher
appears in the woods. and conducts
service in the camp. This is a day
when all of the members of the camp
wash and spruce up as much as pos
sible, for they welcome all strangers,
and give a hearty welcome to the
minister. 1t is doubtful if the preach
er receives more attention in any part
cf his long route. Strangers visiting
the woods are always invited to the
rude feasts of the charcoal burners,
and despite their black, looking faces,
they have white hearts and accomo-
dating ways. They visit the town or
city only when the stock of tobacco
and whisky is exhausted, or when
they drive to the railroad station to
dispose of their finished product =

CHICAGO. Ill. September 3.-The
law which requires the United States
flag to be displayed from over school
houses in this State practically goes
into effect to-day. this being the first
day of school after the SIMMER vaca-
tiOn. Considerable opposition to the
enforcement of the law has developed.
In most parts of the State the law is
being Obeyed. though in many places
reluctantly. and more to avoid the
charge of being hostile to the flag
than as acknowledging that the law is
just or constitutional. BY far the

to attend the Annual Session which
convcnes in st. Louis. He Is held in

session he preached the educational
sermon and was elected secretary by
accIamation. Rev. Douglass is a

a noted politician but since his call to
