be difficult to find another We build
so strong that whatever scientific
revelations and criticisms Of the Bible
are made, our church will not fall.
We do not want to take members
away from the other churches, but if
those members lose their hold we Of
fer refuge to them, that they need
not wander off. Every town needs
liberal church as much as it needs a
hospital for those who are physically
ailing 1t needs it for intellectual and
religious freedom.
1t is bad thing to be in position
where we are constantly cOmpromis-
ing with our consciences, for it results
at last in the death of conscience,
and the only religion then possible is
an emotion which passes away like
the frost on the wall.
. A preacher can have perfect free
dom in no other than liberal pulpit,
as the speaker had been there and
knew what courage it takes to speak
out what one thinks. Many preachers
in orthodox churches are drawing in
their lines and trimming their sails to
the traditional prejudices of the peo-
pie whom they address. 1t is the
duty of every community to have one
pulpit where liberal speech can be
had.
Our particular church is Unitarian,
and it furnishes practical religion
whose whole creed is this: Love to
God and love to man. One can be-
long to this church and hold any
theory conceivable concerning God,
Jesus, and concerning
man, and no one has the right to bring
him to account. All can come to-
gether, although they do not pretend
to agree in all of their thinking. The
bond of love will hold them together.
The most orthodox person can Join
our church Every man in it is trying
to make his way and help.his brother
make his way into divine light.
Rev. Brown announced that a SER
vice would be held,in the same hall
Sunday evening at. 7:30 o'clock, and
probably Rev. T. b. Forbuse, Of Chi
cago, would preach, but if lie cannot
be here, then some other speaker will
be secured and the announcement OF
the fact will be made through the
papers. This would be followed up
by a few liberal sermons on the ensu-
ing Sunday evenings. He said that
there must be many hungering for
liberal doctrine in city with so many
intelligent people, and all were in
vited to come.

DEED OF A MANIAC
nlCHAEL KLEIN SHOOTS HIS OWN
HEAD OFF.
While Neighbors Were Attempting
to Secure Him for Examination as
to His Sanity, He Sends Both
Charges of Double-BarrelIed Shot
Gun Into His Body-Deed Done in
the Presence of His Father.

Sunday afternoon about five
o'clock maniac in Belgrade took his
own life in the most horrible manner.
His name was Michael Klein, and the
deed was done while he was trying to
escape a recOmmittal to the st. Peter
insane asylum. He was a powerful
man of about twenty-eight years, and
was first taken insane three years ago,
as result of severe attack of cry
SipelaS, which affected his
brain. The treatment at the
St. Peter hospital caused his
recovery to degree that was sup
posed to be complete, and he was soon
released. He had shown no symp-
toms OF mental arrangement until
few days ago, when'he caught a severe
cold, and since then has been rapidly
growing worse.
Sunday it was decided to have
the young man recommitted, but
when he heard of it he secured a
double-barreled shot gun and de-
clared emphatically that he would
never be taken back to the asylum.
Sheriff Block was sent for, but did
not arrive until shortly after the
tragedy. Five or six neighboring
young men undertook to capture the
crazy man, but their efforts were in
vain, as he drove everyone away with
a gun. Finally in the presence of his
crippled father, he placed the muzzle
of the gun against one should
er, with the butt resting on the
ground, and with stick pressed the
trigger. A charge of shot entered
his shoulder. Then he released the
other barrel into his neck, Just
under his chin, tearing away his
throat and nearly serving his head
from his body. He fell down and ex-
pilod almost Immediately.
Mr.. Klein, when in his right mind,
was an inoffensiye and hard working
young man, and his friends describe
him as being fine fellow. He was
unmarried and his home was on the
farm of his parents, eight miles from
Mankato. His parents and all who
knew the unfortunate young man are
shocked at his sudden taking off in
such a terrible manner.

THE NEW WOMAN.
Prof. kenaSton DwellS Upon Her
Advent in the Business
World.
In an Able Paper Before the Social
Science Club Last
Evening.

The Social Science Club Tuesday
was largely attended and quite d
number of ladies were present. The
paper was read by Prof. G. f. kenas-
ton on "The New Woman" and was
an able one, treating the..subject in
most exhaustive manner. We con-
dense few of the leading thoughts
of his paper in the following: or all
the wonderful movements of the last
two decades, he said, none are greater
than the change that has come upon
the minds of women and men in re-
gard to the ''sphere of woman" This
change he thought might be CT more
importance than all the discoveries
and inventions for good or evil. She
is far different than the woman OF
Puritan or revolutionary times and
the outlook for American woman as
contrasted with the condition of her
sisters of many foreign countries is FAR
superior, and the same may be SAID,
when we look back to so years ago
when the first college was opened to
her. 1t is a wonderful change, but
no more noteworthy than that which
has taken place regarding man. II
the term new woman meant that she
was seeking a broader life, that she
may be self-dependent, broader; goes
abroad for the good she may render
to the worlds great needs, and make
home better thereby, than hail to the
new woman.

there was new woman any more

KEATS AND SHELLEY.
Leigh Hunt Tells What He Thought OF
the Two Poets.

Leigh Hunt TelIs What He Thought OF
the Two Poets.
Before l end these rambling notes OF
this Hampstead visit it may be of interest
to mention that once l had the pleasure Of
meeting II gentleman who had known
Leigh Hunt in his later years and had of
ten heard him speak of Keats and that
"heart of hearts,, Shelley. II loved them
both" Hunt would say i'll his tender, sym.
pathetic way, "KCats not so we'll as Shell
ley, but he was very dear to me. 1 can
never forget the manner in which his gen.
ius first impressed me. OF all men l
have met, he had most of the true poetic
spirit. Shelley was largely a politician
and "a rcfUrlHCr, Wordsworth philosopher
and teacher, but Keats was pure poet. in
the midst of London streets he was in the
thick of the wild woods; in the woods no
never looked at an oak tree without seeing
the dryad. He lived with all those beau
tiful fancies and dreams which made the
earth once so divine Il place to the old
Greeks. In character he was strong and
manly; had u mastGrful and earnest spirit.
l respected him as well as loved him. At
the last, when he was so sensitive, so sus-
picious, so miScrably restless we all knew
it was not u revelation of his real charac-
ter, but manifestation of his disease"
My informant told me that once he was
with Hunt when Mary Shelley, accom-
panied by her son, visited him. In the
midst of their tender "reminiscences he re-
membercd that Hunt spoke of Keats and
regretted that he had not more strenuously
taken his part against his infamous re-
viewers. "He did not need my help"
Hunt would say, 'for he bore the shafts
from those cowardly hunters with smiling
courage, and indeed my defense would
have hurt his cause far more than it would
have helped. A few years more, after l
am gone, people all over England will be
speaking of Keats and doing homage to
his rare intellectual qualities. They will
acknowledge that l was right in my proph
eCy, published some time ago, that he was
as true man of genius rs these latter
times have seen, one of those who are too
genuine and original to be properly appre-
ciated at first, but whose time for applause
will infallibly arrive with the many"
And then Hunt would relapse into silence,
his eyes gazing into the distance, as
though he saw unutterable visions.-

HOW LoNDoNERs SPEND MONEY.
They Impoverish Themselves In Useless,
Health Destroying Pleasures.

They Impoverish Themselves In Useless,
Health Destroying Pleasures.
Londoncrs impoverish themselves and
make themselves absurdly miserable by
their own devices. Most Of the things on
which they cXpend their money are van
tiles or frauds. Their houses and their
dress, as we have seen, are pitiful, their
special literature often worse than none
their art the pictures on the hoardings
their amuscments sensual. Their very
holidays are miserable labor, dull excite
ments, almost wholly without physical or
mental good or intellectual gain. A time
of quiet relaxation or of natural enjoy
ment is indeed the lot of but few. Crowd.
ed excursion trains and tho rude company
at seaside towns are the infection of tho
lower, middle and the working classes,
and bank holidays are perhaps as much an
injury as "a blessing. Railways and steam
boats and the means of entertainment are
so Overcrowded that all healthy, civilized
enjoyment is impossible, and so the man
ners of the people become cOarser from
the very means that should promote inn
prOvGment.
On the continent each parish has its iso-
lated fete, well managed and within the
means at hand, and thus these fctes are
graceful, civilizing entertainments. We in
London need such limitedly local relaxa
tions, so that each part of the metropolis
being, as occasion may require, assisted by
the others, district holidays might be
means of good alternately to all the popu-
lation. Probably from mere conceit or
mental lazinoss the people are so fond of
bigness and monotony that they entirely
overlook the ways of providence, in which
the multitudinously small and varied is
the rule. Monotony and uniformity, tho
radical idea, are alike apart from proyi-
dcnce and healthy human nature.-Quar-
terly Review.

Oldest House In New York.

One of the few relies left of the early
colonial days is still standing at South
ampton, \. Y. This town claims the pre-.
emincnco of being the Oldest English town
in the state of New York, and the ancient
house referred to was built by Thomas
Sayre, one of the first settlers. 1t was
erected in 1913 and has been handed down
from father to son in an unbroken line for
ten generations, the present owner being
the direct descendant of the builder.
At time of threatened Indian outbreak
in 1866 it was one of the rallYing places Of
the inhabitants in case of night attack
The descendants of Thomas Sayre are very
numerous, both in this state and in New
Jersey. Tho ancient mansion, which
stands on the main street of the village, is
an object of curious interest to the multi
tudo of city residents who find in that
quiet village by the sea summer resting
place.
The massive timbers and covering Of
thick cedar shingles are sufficient to insure
its remaining for years to come as curl
Gus and interesting relic of long past
age. OF no other house in the state can it
be said that ten generations have been
born and died within it's walls.-New

LINcoLN's HEsITANcY TO MARRY.
Apprehensive That the Pathway Was Not
One of Flowers and Sunlight.

One of Flowers and Sunlight.
Letters from Lincoln to his closest
friend, Joshua Fry Speed, subsequent to
the latter's marriage, betray an anxious
and impatient desire to learn if marriage
is pathway of flowers and sunlight and
not of darkness and pain the two HAD NOR
bidly feared it to be- John Gilmer Speed
presents these hitherto unpublished letters
bearing upon "Lincoln's Hesitancy to
Marry" in The Ladies' home journal. In
one Lincoln says:
at cannot be told how it now thrills
me with joy to hear you say you are far
happier than you ever expected to be-
That much know is enough l know you
too well to suppose your expectations were
not, at least sometimes, eXtravagant, and
If the reality exceeds them all say, enough
dear Lord. l am not going beyond tho
truth when tell you that the short space
it took me to read your last letter gave me
more pleasure than the sum total of all l
have enjoyed since the fatal 1st of Janu-
AIRY, 1871. Since then it seems to me l
should have been entirely happy but for
the never absent idea that there is one ire
ferring to Miss Mary Todd) who is still
unhappy, whom l have contributed to
make So That still kills my soul. l can
not but rcproach myself for even wishing
to be happy while she is otherwise. She
accompanied large party in the railroad
cars to jacksonville last Monday, and on
her return spoke so that heard of it OF
having enjoyed the trip exceedingly. God
be praised for that. One thing | can toll
you which l know you will be glad to
hear, and that is that have seen Mary
and scrutinized her feelings as well as
could and am fully convinced she is far
happier now than she has been for the last
10 months past"
Eight months after Speed had married,
Mr.. Lincoln wrote him:
but l want to ask a close question:
Arc you now in feeling as we'll as judg-
mont glad that you arc married as you
are? From anybody but me this would
be an impudent question not to be toler-
ated, but | know you will pardon it in me-
Please answer it quickly, as l am impa-
tient to know"
Mr.. Lncoln's object in asking this
"close question" is manifest. Mr.. Speed
gave the answer quickly and satisfactorily,
and on tho 4th of November 1912, ono
month exactly after the question had been
submitted, Llr. Lincoln was married.

BELLOWS HOLD THEIR OWN.
BlacISsmiths Stick to Them Notwlthstand-
ing the Newer Power Blowers.

ing the Newer Power Blowers.
The blacksmith's bellows has three
boards. When the bellows is set up in po-
sition, the middle board is fixed; the up
per and lower boards are movable. There
is valve in the middle board and one in
the lower board. When the bellows is not
in use, the lower board falls rs far as the
leather will permit it, and that corlnart-
ment is then filled with air. With the
working Of the lever and the raising of the
lower board the air in the lower compart-
ment is forced through the valve in the
middle board into the upper compartment,
which is the reservoir, whence it flows
through the nozzle of the bellows into the
fire. When the pressure from below ceases,
the valve in the middle board closes, and
the air is then forced out from the upper
compartment or reservoir of the bellows
by the weight of the upper board. Some
times this hoard Is weighted to make it
expel the air more rapidly and furcibly.
The continuance of the blast without the
working of the lever, caused by the gradu-
ally sinking upper board of the bellows,
may last for II quarter of a minute. 1t is
highly priced characteristic of the bel
lows. The blacksmith who is alone is thus
enabled if he should so DESIRE to use both
hands at the fire, or he might go across
the shop and be back swaying the lever
once more before the blast had ceased.
A good bellows will last for many years
without repairs. Blacksmiths' bellows are
made in various sizes from "a inch to 60
inch. The 36 inch is the size most COM
monty sold The size is the width at tho
widest point. Bellows are longer than
they are wide and they are r,ade of diff
ferent lengths in the same width, ordinary
and long. There are about Is bellows
manufacturers in the country, including
three in New York and one in Brooklyn.
Manufacturing and other establishments
supplied with power forges are nowadays
equipped with power blowers, and there
are also various hand blowers some oper-
ated with a crank and some with a lever,
and there are now used many portable
FORCES and blowers combined. The sale of
modern appliances for blowing forge fires
has increased greatly in recent years, while
the sale of bellows has not. But there arc
shipsmiths and boiler makers, wheel
wrights, carriage and wagon makers and
others who still use bellows, and almost
every hOrseshOer uses bellows and pre-
fers it to any other means of blowing his
fire, so that there are still sold thousands
of bellows annually York Sun.
