Henry l.. jones' the West Coal street
grocer. has his stable ON West Oak street.
The distance between his residence and
stable is considerable and Mr. Jones is unable
to guard the latter properly. The boys re-
siding in the vicinity of West Oak street
know this and furnish great fun for them
selves by making targets for stone throwing
of the windows in the stable and the canvas
covers of the wagons This sport put Mr..
Jones to considerable expense and once he
was obliged to get team to haul one of the
wagons up q steep cmbankment over which
the boys had pushed the vehicle. Yesterday
the grocer learned that Freddy Jones. no
relative of the complainant, and Eddie
l'laherty, two boys about IL years of age,
were in great measure responsible for his
troubles and they were arraigned before
Justice Williams last night by Constable
Dando. Justice Williams says he breads
cases in which small boys and women are in
terested because they generally consume a
great deal of time and the result is never
satisfactory TO anybody concerned. Freddy
and Eddie were willing and frank witnesses
for Mr.. Jones to the point of their own in
terest, and there they solcmnly vowed they
had nothing to do with the grocer's troubles
They knew Mr.. Jones had stable on West
Oak street. that windows in it had been
smashed and wagon curtains ruined, etc.
but they, so they said, had no hand in the
depredatons. Flaherty's father and Jones
mother were present and furnished a little
side play by throwing sarcasm at the grocer
Finally the Justice dismissed the boys with
reprimand and, adding that the parents
would have to arrange the costs with the
constable and if the boys didn't leave the
grocer's property alone they would be sent
to jail.

Thrown From the Track.

At about eight o'clock last evening a
Schuylkill Traction car, in charge of Martin
Dixon, motorman, and Albert Howard, con-
ductor was thrown from the track at point
between Holmesville and Girardville. For
tunately the car was not running at a high
speed, but the four wheels left the rails and
the jarring broke several window panes
There were fifteen passengers and one OF
them, a woman, tainted. The accident was
caused by barrel slaves and other pieces OF
wood being placed ON the track. 1t took
four hours to replace the car and traffic ON
the line was kept up meantime by transfer
system.

THE DIVINE NAME.
The ineffabls Word Tina; Is Never Spoke
by Many Israeiites.


By Many Israeiites.
Rev. d.. Wise, president of the He
brew Union college at Cincinnati, has
given his view Of the ancient Jewish
rendering of the name of the Deity, re-
ports the New York sun. He SAYS that
the term jehovah" the ineiiable tetra-
grammaton, is never pronounced by
many 1sraelites. They use the word
"Adonoi," which signifies 1.-The Lord"
The translators of the Bible followed
this custom, rendering the word "Je-
hovah" rs Lord" In ancient times
the Pharisees replaced the tetragram-
NATION by Shem; they used "Shemo,"
which is also Biblical, as the sacred
name, and this name is yet retained, to
some extent, among the Jews. But it
would appear from passages in the
Psalms that Adonoi, or Lcrd. for Je-
hovah was more ancient even than the
times OF the Pharisees. 1t thus occurs
eight times in Psalm lxxxiv- 1t also ap-
pears in the book of Exodus where "Je-
hoyah" had been used in The original
Hebrew. This substitution would
seem to be older than any other, and it
is yet common among all Jews.
DR.. Wise says he has found that the
ancient TRANSACTIONS testify in favor of
"Adonoi."
Looking at the English translation
of the Old Testament it Will be found
that the name Jehovah appears in the
books of Genesis, Exodus, Judges. the
Psalms and Isaiah. 1t is not in the New
Testament

CAT IN THE PULPIT,
Pastor Caught 1t by the Neck and the
Usher Took 1t Away.


I'm inquisitive black cat strayed into
the Bristol Methodist Episcopal church
on recent Sunday evening just before
the services began, says the Pittsburgh
Chronicle-Telegraph.
There were very few people in the
church at the time, but the loud and
plaintiye mewing of the stranger at
tracted their attention, and they
watched its movements with interest.
The animal climbed up into the choir
loft. perchcd upon the railing and
looked down upon the congregation.
Aftcr time several members of the
choi arrived and the cat scampered
away. finally climbing down one of the
wooden pillars which supported the
choir left and walked down into the
aisle
Several of the congregation cndeav-
ored TO coax the cat into their pews,
but the proud pussy ignored them and
with stately dignity climbed up into
the pulpit and sat on the Bible. When
the pastor came in Il moment later he
found the cat in possession Of the pull
pit. but the animal took kindly to the
preacher and began to purr and arch
his back at the lattcr's approach.
The pastor took the cat by the back
OF the neck and handed it down to an
usher, who carried puss out of the
church. This is good omen, broth
rem" said the pastor and then he went
on and preached his sermon.

SUNSHINE AND HEALTH.
Tuberculosis Readily Develops in Dark,
ul-yentiIated Rooms.

HI IOOms.
A merchant noticed, N the progress
of years, that each successive book
keeper gradually lost his health and
finally died of consumption, however
vigorous and robust he was on entering
his service. AT length it occurred to
him that the little rear room where the
books were kept opened il back yard
SO surrounded by high walls that no
sunshine came into il from one years
end to another. An upper room, well
lighted, was Immediately prepared, and
his clerks had uniform good health ever
after.
A familiar case to general readers is
derived from medical works, where. an
entire family became i'll, and al RENE
dies seemed to fail Of their usual results,
when accidentally window glass ofthe
family room was broken, in cold
weather. 1t was not repaired, and
forthwith there was q marked improve
ment in the health of the inmates. The
physician at once traced the connection,
discontinued his medicines, and or
dered that the window pane should not
be replaced.
A French lady became i'll. The most
eminent physicians of her time We're
called in, but failed to restore her. At
length Dupuytren, the Napoleon OF
physics, was consulted. He noticed
that she lived in dim room, into which
the sun never shone, the house being
situated in one of tie narrow streets,
Or, rather, lanes of Paris. He at once
ordered more airy and cheerful apart
ments, and "all her complaints van
ished."
The lungs of dog become tuber-
cuiated {consumptyel in few weeks
IL kept confined in dark cellar. The
most common plant grows spindly, pale
end scraggling if no sunlight falls upon
It, The greatest medical names in
France, of the last century, regarded
sunshine and pure air as equal agents in
restoring and maintaining health.
From these facts, which cannot be
disputed, the most common mind
should conclude that cellars and rooms
on the northern side of buildings, or
apartments into which the sun does not
Immediately shine, should never be oc-
cupied as family rooms or chambers, or
rs libraries or studies. Such apart
ments a"e only fit for purposes which
never require persons TO remain in them
over n few minutes at q time. And
every intelligent and humane parent
will arrange that the liviDg-room and
the bedrooms shall be the most commo-
dious, lightest and brightest apart
mentS in his dwelling
