A Surprise for Mr.. Hutchings

There was peculiar accident the
other morning in the factory OF Mark
F. Hutchings, of Lynn, caused by
the accidental charging of tele-
phone wire. The wire was being re-
moved from the building and fell
across a trolley wire. The end at
the building fell on the iron cornice,
charging all the iron work in the
building. Mr.. Hutchings has a
swinging gas jet in his Office which
when pushed back from his desk
rests against an iron pillar, one of
the supports of the building. When
he pushed back the gas Jet in the
morning loud report and a blind
ing, lightning-like fash followed and
he was hurled across his Office and
his hands badly burned. A frag-
ment of bagging on the bench was
ignited and brisk blaze started but
was soon extinguished. In the Sec
ond story of the building, where the
telephone wire enters the factory,
there was at the same time report
and a flash OF electricity which
burned a hole through a piece of

LOST IN LONDON.
Woman Takes Roundabout Way Of
Finding Herself.


Finding Herself.
A poor woman lost in London the
other day applied to post Office, and
was safely conducted to her home by
district messenger, being charged
for as a special delivery parcel. This
was very convenient and not, upon
the whole, an indirect way of sur
mounting the difficulty But l re-
member more curious illustration
of how to find ones way home than
that, and a much more roundabout
one. It was before the days of tele-
graphs and district messengers that
a poor old countrywoman was found
one evening in the Edgewater road,
without bonnet and with bar of
soapin her hand, who had not the least
notion Except that it was number
three where her home was situated
She had come from Devonshire only
the night before to her daughters
house, to stay few weeks with her,
and had made herself useful dur
ling che day at the family washing.
The soap had given out and she had
offered to fetch a bar from the
grocer's. As she had been there
that morning with her daughter, she
felt sure she could easily find it
and, indeed, had done so; but now
that the shops were shut up and
everything looked different, she
! could not find it again, nor could she
get back to her Sally at number three
She, of course, appealed to that
friend Of humanity, the policeman;
but he could give her no assistance.
If she had been lost child the thing
would have been easy enough; he
would have asked her: ''Where does
your father get his beer from2" and
out would have come, quite natural
ly, the name of the public house.
He walked her up and down few
streets, but the streets in the Edge
water road are very much alike, and
she identified them all. She wouldn' t
go to the police station, and she
wouldn't go to the workhouse (she
would die first), and how was he to
get her to number 81 At last plan
was hit upon. The daughter had
met her at the railway station; but
she had Sally's directions, it appeared,
IN her snuffbox in Devonsire. So
the policeman took her to Padding
ton, and the railway authorities gave
her free return ticket, and she came
back after forty-eight hours with the
bar of soap in her hand, and Sally's
direction, and reached Sally's at last
after circumbendibus of about five
hundred miles.-James Payn, in N.
Y. Independent.

SELF-SAORIFICE.
This Idea Controls Much of the Best
Philanthropic Work.


Many years ago, in one of his SER
mons at Yale college, President
Woolsey dwelt with singular impress
siveness upon the thought that self
sacrifice should be intelligent Sym
patty with others leads US to deny
ourselves for their sakes; but true
self-sacrifce is intelligent as well as
impulsive; it is directed toward ends
and by methods which reason ap-
proves Recently this idea has come
to control much of the best philan-
thropic work. We have come to see
that thoughtless and unwise benevo-
lence Is one of the causes of the evils
which philanthropy seeks to remedy.
The same truth applies in domestic
and social life. We can hardly be
too solicitous to promote the happi-
ness and well-being OF others, but
our efforts should always be intel
hgent. In many homes mothers and
fathers sacrifice themselves for their
children, and brothers and sisters
for each other, in ways that do not
benefit but iniure those whose pleas
me and welfare they have at heart.
The set-denial may do those who ex-
,eDcise it good, but it does those who
receive it harm. It is not selfish
ness, though 1t may be made. an UNI
worthy pretext for selfshpess, for
us to ask whether our seif-sacrt6ce
for another Is going to benefit or In
Pure him. One important sphere for
the exercise of reason is the control
Of the impulses And the cfrcum-
stance that impulses are good is not
an excuse Dor indulging them without
reference to the effect our action may
have upon others. -Watchman.
