A Dominic TALKS OF OLD MAIDS.

A Somewhat Unusual Sermon by the
wick.
New Brunswick N. J., July H.-'NIir-
lam, the Old Maid" was the subject yes
terday of a sermon by the Rev. S. A. Sam
mis- OF the Tabernacle Baptist church
Mr.. Sammis is a bachelor. His remarks
caused the splnsters in the front pew to
beam with pleasure. The preacher said:
Il have no sympathy for those wealthy
girls who will go out into the woods and
pick up an isolated prince or a God-for-
saken duke and bestow large sums of
money upon them for their titles. I
don't care for dukedom, pnncedom, or any
other kind of dom They ind when il
is too late the mistake they have made
and then expect the sympathy which no
one has for them"
Mr. Sammis told Of the part Miriam
played In the finding of Moses. He spoke
of the Egyptian princess, who was, he
said. an old maid, in taking the child eff
she had been one of our new women she
would have had a poodle dog with a fine
coat spangled with buttons in her arms,
and Moses would have stood no chance
at ALL"
Next" said the dominic. we find Mir
lam with the children of Israel in the des-
ert. After her triumphant song she was
made a prophecies. Bad results came of
it. She became ambitious. Then she be-
came Jealous of her brothers, then SLAM
derous, and was finally punished by being
afflicted with leprOsy. Here is a striking
lesson. Give a woman too much power
and you will repent it. Universal suff-
rage would be an excellent thing were ii
not for this. If the lady Of the house gets
full control of domestic affairs, YOU will
soon see her coming it over her husband
in an alarming manner Just limit her

but give her complete control and that set

IDA HOLBROOK,

Beloved Wife Of Col. J. H. Estiu.
Death at any time brings sadness to

peculiarly sad were the circumstances
connected with the death of Ida H. Estin.
on June 20. 1895 friends gathered with
joyous hearts In St. Johns Episcopal
church to witness her marriage, but in
one short year the scene has changed.
The funeral bell is tolled and a solemn

where the bridal party had trod. The de-
voted husband. the loving sisters and
kind friends are there. but only to fol-

Ida had many friends. but none who
loved her or understood her better than
the one who now offers this slight tribute
of affection to her memory
Hers was a loving and clinging nature.
Devoted to her hus band. whom she loved
with all the strength of a true woman's
heart, her first thought was for his hap

of this advantage. A writer In Popu-

city:
In the salt mines at Wielicska, II

On the afternoon Of the day that we.
to end Bakhtawar's life an old man
came into the post. He was Bakhta-
wars father. Gray, broken-toOthed,
scars on his face and arms frocn count
less fights, he looked like grim old
boar. Tomorrow at sundown," said
he, you shall see eight camels come
in. If not, hang and burn me with my
only SOM! After this he said no word.
Respite was perfOrce granted, and the
English officer went to bed wondering
how he was to get out Of the scrape
If the game Of brag failed what was
he to do? An hour before da wn the
hand Of the Afridi jemadar was laid
on his face and the voice said: Let
go the wild goats, for l go out hunting

II am not afraid" was the reply, "Sc
not till the second dawn!' and tht
Jemadar retired as softly as he came.
It was late afternoon and the sun all
but touched the western mountain crest
when they took the old map and his
son, put nooses on their necks and their
feet on the boxes, with a horse harness

sank the sun. Half the disc had gone
when a camel turned the corner Of the
rocky road below the post. Just an
the sun set eight camels stood inside
the post, with two stout. grinning Nah.

The men SO suddenly released from
death evinced no feelings of any sort.
The only sign Of relief they gave was a
ready acquieecence In the confiscaeion
OF their arms and the handcufing Of
all four Mahsuds till next day, when
they were escorted across the river and
set free. In the evening the Jemadar
returned from shooting. He said: Il

without horns; and Sahib wants horns.
What can I show!' And he laughed
