She Was Going to "Albert's" and Reached
There Safely.
An old woman wearing n pair of gold
eyeglasses was a passenger on one OF the
trains from Buffalo to New York. She
had come through from the west, and
the way in which she gathered
her bundles around her and the number
Of questions she asked all showed that
she was not accustomed to travelling.
When the trainboy came through with
his assortment of books, she confided to
him the facts that she was going to New
York to see her son and that she had
not seen him for over q year. She grew
talkative and said:
my son Albert's a great preacher.
He is q Methodist, and l am a Metho-

was wrong. He hasn't been back to see
me for over a year. l live way out in

sent for me to come on. He breaches IN

So she prattled in. The trainboy lis
tened to her attentively and succeeded
in selling her a copy of 1.-THE Quick o.

it was a Methodist religious book. Wher

at first, then nervously, until she grew
tired. Then she began to nod, and final

gray hair reposed IN the cushion of thu
palace car seat, and its owner dozet
peacefully.
The conductor came through to col
lect tickets, and seeing the peaceful
sleep of his passenger was loath to wak'
her. Finally he leaned over and shool
her gently and said:

Thus it was that Tom Benton met the
queen of England. He was sent to q
school about midway between Portland
and Dover. After completing his studies
there he was taken into her majesty's
service and remained there his entire
life. Between Benton and the Prince of
Wales there was IA strong bond of friend

circumstances.
One day. while Benton was gathering
shells on the beach at Brighton to make
pincushions, which he sold to h sum

ed and about his own age, appeared
upon the scene and scattered, with a
vigorous kick. the accumulated shells.
Benton gathered up his treasures, and
placing them again in a pile warned the
intruder that if he repeated the trick he
would give him a good licking"
The kick was repeated with even more
vigor than before, and the shells were
sent flying in every direction. True to
his word, the poor boy" soundly
thrashed the stranger. 1t was a close
contest at first, as the lads were quite
evenly matched, but the more fully do

brought him off victorious.
Just as the melee was over a gentle
man and lady approached, and the for

man. We have seen the whole transac

Co. BIS Meeting.

Co. B, N. G.. H., held red-hot
business meeting last night, in
which all the members present
agreed that they had been unfair
ly treated in the recent shoot for
the Marlin trophy. Some of the
boys said they felt very sore
over the shabby manner in which
the volunteers were treated by the
regulars on the day of the shoot.
One or two thought it would be a
good thing to get in and win the
prize in the future, in spite of the
recent experience, and bury the
past.
The following resolutions were
agreed on by the Company:
Resolved, That Company b,
having no alternative, accepts the
decision of the Court of Inquiry

AS TO QUAKER MEETINGS.
Congressman Erdman Tells what
They Were Lie in His Youth.
From the Washlngton Post.

From the Washington Post.
There was a dispute the other day be-
tween a group Of House members in re-
gard to the real meaning Of Quaker
meeting. The term is unfortunately
used to express a great many varieties or
meetings. and the conception that most
people have of a real Quaker meeting is
erroneous.
I'm not a Quaker" said Representative
Erdman Of Pennsylvania 'but | was
reared in the neighborhood of Quakers.
and / attended many a Quaker meeting in
my young days. The only remembrance
] have of those meetings is that the peo-
pie came there in a deVout spirit and sat
in silence until the spirit moved them to
get up and speak. They have no minis
tiers, and / have known a well-attended
meeting to adjourn without an address
from any one.
'fThey sometimes sit in silence for quite
awhile with heads bowed and hands folded
in deep religious abstraction. Finally the
spirit will move some one, and he will rise
to his feet and hold a discoures, after
which he resumes his seat, and perhaps
another brother or sister will feel impelled
TO do the same thing, or some one will
rise and offer an earnest prayer. And
in this way the people gather and COM
mune, and finally go home That is the
old-time Quaker meeting, as l remember
them from my boyhood days."
