AnInvocation for rain.

The part of the Occident in which the
settlement of Hawville is located had been
afiicted with long and severe drouth,
says the New York Tribune After the
ablest attempts of the rain-makers had
brought no relief, a special prayer-meetin
was held at the Methodist church. and a
united appeal for rain was made to Provi-
uence. When the service had been going
on for some time Col. Handy Polk an en-
terprising real estate agent, arose in his
place, and with becoming humility began:
our Heavenly Father, we are assembled
we're to-day to call Thy attention to the
fact that we need rain, and need it mighty
bad! 1t hain't a case Of merely Wantin'

A NeapoIitnn legend.

Many simple legends are told among the
peasants of Southern Europe, illustrating
the wisdom of Jesus, says the Literary
Digest Such stories are never without
moral, as the following Neapolitan ie-
gend, which we quote from the Munich
Naterland, will show:
Our good Lord Jesus Christ once walk
ed with His disciples across a stony acre.
where no tree defended the wanderers
against the midday sun. If each Of you
said the Lord. will take up one of these
stones whenever you cross this land, the
ground VIII soon bear rich fruits The
disciples, anxious to please the Master,
picked up stones, as many as they could
carry, and the sweat ran from their brows
St Peter alone demurred. Garry stones
on so hot day? Verify not /, Quoth he:
and he picked up pebble not much larger
than hens egg. The Lord knew IL
well, but said nothing. At the end of the,
acre was wooded hill and here by the.
side of murmuring spring, the Lord
told His disciples to rest. Let each
place his stones before him.. St, John
had carried large piece Of rock so large
that only his love for the Master could
give him strength to bear the burden By
the Side of this stone St. Peters pebble
looked rather ridiculous but he did nor
seem to mind that He turned to the.
Savior and said: Master, We would ear.
but have no bread. Those who work
Will always have bread answered the
Lord, and He blessed the stones before
into loavesi All had bread in plenty. e,s-
cept Peter, whose portion fell OUT rather
small, put he was too proud to beg of St
John. On the way back the disciples,
picked up stones, and this time ST Peter
carried the largest of all At the other
end of the acre flowed the Jordan, and
Jesus SAID, Let none do good for the sake
river. Thus st. Peter tasted a whole day
and learned much"

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1895-09-23

The wharves of New Orleans are held
by lessees and the leases have six years
longer to run. 1t is claimed that the
wharf charges of the port are so heavy
that the trade of the city is injured
thereby, and there is a movement on foot
to institute free wharfage. Just how this
is to be brought about, however. is a ques-
ton which the business men of the city
find difficult of solution. II would re-
quire a large fund to buy up the leases.
and it is believed the tax payers would
not be willing for the fund to be raised
by taxation After the leases had ex-
pired by limitation there would not be
much difficulty about abolishing the
wharfage charges. but it is feared that
to wait six years would seriously hurt
the business of the port. The other gulf
ports are wide awake and hustling for
business. and the South Atlantic ports
are no less energetic Inasmuch as the
merchants Of New Orleans are practi-
cally unanimous in the opinion that
something must be DONE and that short
ly, the chances are that the knotty prob
lem will be satisfactorily solved before
long.
