BROOKS IN The PULPIT.
The California Poet Delivers an
Impromptu Sermon on
Sermons.
Likens the Rev. DR.. Case of the How.
ard.Street Church to Chauncey
N. Depew.

Fred Emerson Brooks, the California
poet, last evening donned the robe sancti-
monial and ascended with slow, thought
full steps the pulpit of the Howard-street
Methodist Church.
DR.. Case had just finished an eloquent
and earnest sermon from the text, How
is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto
US and not unto the world? ?'
AT the close of his sermon DR.. Case, al
luding TO the poet, said: Had l my way
| should crown MIR. Brooks the laureate of
the United States"
The pulpit was then placed in the back
ground and Mr.. Brooks stood in front of
it and delivered little sermon on SER
mons.
There is but one way to deliver a SER
mon, said he; that is to read a text and
then tell stories about it. People flock
from distant cities to listen to the silvered
utterances of Chauncey Depew, yet all that
he does is to tell stories one after another
This is what DR.. Case does" said the poet
with his most winning smile, land l may
add that DR.. Case reminds me much Of
Chauncey Depew.
1.-THE only sermon / can remem Der is one
l listened to when | was a boy. and this
sermon was only chain of stories"
ssBy way of illustration Mr.. Brook. re-
lated two of those stories. One was about
the saying in the Bible "Come unto me
and l will gather you under my wings
even as a hen gathereth her little
chickens"
He described the hen clucking for her
progeny and pictured the hawk poised
overhead. Then after he had gotten the
chickens all under their mothers wing he
drew moral by comparing the comfort
and safety of the sheltered ones to those
poor rascals ou. in the bushes where the
hawk could get at them.
The poet closed his sermon reciting his
poem Palestine" during the rendition
of which j. William Macy sang "Jesus
Lover of My Soul" The effect was ex-
ceedingly beautiful and dramatic.
That Vacant Look.
Joseph Fl. Choate seldom meets a sue
cessful antagonist in repartee, but he met
his match while trying a case in the Sur
rogate's court not long ago. An old woman
was being questioned about how certain
testator had looked when certain incident
had occurred. Now, how can remem ber ?
He's been dead two years." she replied
testify SIS your memory so poor that you
can't remember two years back ?" con-
timed Choate. The old woman was silent,
and Choate asked: sDid he look any
thing like me?' Seems to ME he did
have the same sort of a vacant look ~
snapped the witness. The questioning
was suspended.-New York Mail and Ex-

SOMEBODY ERRED.
A Cattleman of Mesa City Was Un-
 justly Arrested for No Crime.

There seems to be much indigna- tion among cattlemen over the arrest of Joe Peterson of Mesa a few days ago for shipping cattle to Phoenix without their first being inspected He was arrested by the inspector at Tenn pc and was fined $1 and costs by the Tempe justice. Peterson and his friends claim that his arrest was not legal. He shipped two cars of cattle over the M. & P. to this city The cat tie were consigned to a local butcher. At the time of shipment he was ig- norant of the law in the case, but that did not prevent his being prosecuted. There seems to be misunderstanding about the law regulating the matter, for the cattle were shipped in the ter ritory for slaughter and according to the livestock laws of Arizona no cer- tificate of inspection was necessary at the shipping point. The law reads as follows:
 Cattle to be shipped or driven from one point to another in the territory are to be given certificates of inspec- tion of cattle to be shipped or driven and are never to be given certificates
 
 tered"
 MT. Peterson claims that the agent of the railroad company at Tempe did not demand any certificate of inspec- tfon, but according to the section quoted above no certificate was neces- sary in that case, but the law regarding the hauling of cattle by railroads reads as follows:
 
 It shall be unlawful for any rail- road company to receive any meat or horned cattle for transportation until the same shall have been inspected as | required by this act, and until such railroad company shall have been fur nished with a certificate by duly authorized inspector or detective ! showing that the brands and ear marks on such cattle, have been duly in- spected as required by this act. Any railroad company, or any officer, agent or servant of railroad company, who shall violate the provisions of this sec | tion, shall be deemed guilty of mis- | demeanor, and on conviction thereof l shall be fined not less than one hund- red ($10O dollars, and not more than five thousand (s5,0OO) dollars in the discretion of the court
 According to the two sections quoted MT. Peterson was in no wise amenable to any law and somebody has made an error in placing misconstruction on the livestock laws.

Deputy United States Marshal John Slankard was yesterday in receipt of a letter which called his attention to together near the Maricopas depot and suggested that if Mr Slankard would take the trouble to call sometime, be- tween sunset and sunrise the guilty couple would be discovered. The let ter was signed Many Property Own CTS of That Vicinity The officer paid no heed to the letter, but desires than anybody who is annoyed by the doings of the couple step forward like a man and sign his name to a complaint and not write anonymous letters.
 The Tucson Star says that there is likely to be trouble on the San Pedro. Persons along the river above Mann moth are apprehensive and prepared for emergencies For a long time eight to twenty have been wandering along the river. Larger parties, how ever, have put in an appearance and pretend to be gathering acorns. Most of them are armed and we'll supplied With carriages. It IS not expected that the Indians will do any damage more serious than running off stock, but the settlers are prepared to settle with them at the first break.
 Prescott Courier: John Martin is in receipt of a letter from James Cassidy, written from Buluwayo, South Africa, in which the latter stated that he had Just arrived in Buluwayo from Johan- nesburg, having covered the entire distance of over 800 miles on bicycle through a wild and rough country He went there to find out the particulars of the murder of Messrs. Palmer, John son and Pascoe and learned that their unburied bodies were still on the ground where the men were murdered, about thirty miles from Buluwayo. A party of Americans was being orga- nized to so out and bury the bodies.

ATLANTIC & PACIFIC ROAD.
Part of the Line to Be Sold as Soon
 as Possible.

San Francisco Examiner: Proceed ings are to be brought Immediately before United States District Judge Morrow for permission to sell that part of the Atlantic & Pacific road in California. c. N. Sterry of Albuquer- que, counsel for c. w. Smith, the re- ceiver of the road, is here with that object in view. Permission to sell the remaining two portions of the road in Arizona and New Mexico has al ready been granted by the United States courts at Albuquerque. Attor- ney Sterry when seen yesterday said:
 "The sale will take place next No vember on behalf of the first mortgage bondholders. They have a claim for about $20,00O,000 No, I don't think the Southern Pacific people want to buy the road. That part of the road from Mojave to The Needles was built by the Southern Pacific, but the At lantic & Pacific people own it under contract of purchase The piece of road is about 249 miles long and is bonded for $30, ,000 a mile at 6 per cent. The annual interest is between $400,- 900 and $500,000. The Atlantic & Pa cific pays this every year, and under it's contract of purchase has assumed the bonded debt The road could be duplicated for a much Jess sum. I think there is no question but the first mortgage bondholders of the Atlantic & Pacific will buy in the road Then they will take steps looking to a modi- fication of their contract of purchase with the Southern Pacific
 ''The Santa Fe at Albuquerque is getting into southern California via Barstow, and into this part of the state via Mojave, by a traffic agreement with the Atlantic & Pacific Whether | it will finally absorb the Atlantic & Pacific I cannot say. Receiver Smith is operating the road for the bond holders to see what it is actually worth. After such data is collected, the bondhIolders will be able to act in- telligently as to what they want to do with the property. If the gap between Supulpa, Indian Territory, the termi- nus of the St. Louis & San Francisco road, and Albuquerque was closed up, then that road and the Atlantic & Pa cific would constitute a new overland line The gap is some 800 miles long. The cost would be about s15,0O0 a mile"

PICKED UP IN THE STREET.
A Blacksmith Finds His Tool to Be
 Nugget of Pure Gold.

Blacksmith Finds His Tool to Be .
 Nugget of Pure Gold.
 Curious things sometimes happen in the gold bear; 4g regions of the north west. The Blackfoot Qdaho) News tells of a somewhat remarkable, experience which occurred to blacksmith at that town lately. -
 The smith, whose name is Farmer, had in his shop grindstone which he wished to taper off, For this purpose a small stone was requisite. So he went out of doors and made search for stone of the right size and shape.
 He found one somewhat smaller than hens egg, and returning to his shop began to smooth down the edge of the grindstone with it. He had not 'smoothed' long before he thought that the stone worked rather queerly, and was, in fact, too soft to grind the stone He took it to his anvil and broke it ill half, and then he found that he had picked up 2 nugget of pure gold.
 Unfortunately, it was a rather small nugget. He sold it for $5.S2 cents, and though this was a very good price for pebble picked up in the street, it was not wealth.

If you wish a pleasant trip with few changes, see that your tickets read via the Wabash line. No change of sleepers from Kansas City to St. Louis, Cincinnati, Toledo, or from St. Louis to Chicago, Toledo, Detroit, Niagara falls, Buffalo, New York and Boston. This line is famous for it's magnificent equipment of sleeping and dining cars and the fast time of it's trains.
