QUARREL OVER the FUNDS, Of
COURSE.

There has been n shadow OF mystery
over the split In the American branch
of the salvation Army which state.
incnts of the opposing sides have not
cleared away entirely. Ostensibly
Ballington Booth and his wife resigned
because they were transferred against
their will to another field of labor.
The fact that Ballington Booth had
raised the standard of the army in
this country far beyond his fathers
anticipatio had doubled Its numbers,
and filled Its treasury did not prevent
the old General from removing him.
Gen. Booth had demonstrated u sagac.
lily and genius for organization that
made his action In this matter rather
incxplcablc. The American branch
Of the army was prospecting. 1t even,
was contributing a large sum each year
to the English headquarters. 1t was
more than self-supporting. Gen. Boot,
therefore had every reason to leave
well enough alone. BullingtOn Dootll,
since his removal, has frequently In
tinlated there was more behind the az
fair than he cared to tell. Respect for
his father made him keep silence. he
said. What was this secret history
Inns been u matter Of much spcculat iOn.
Gen. Booths adicrcnts have stated
publicly that BallingtOn Booths rebel.
lion was simply Maynard and scliis,,
determination not to abide by well.
known rules Of the Organizat ton. which
prescribed frequent changes In com.
handing officers. II this had been all
there was to It Darlington Booth cor.
talnly was entitled to his present course
OF action. But with the natural afYcc.
ton hc was known to cherish for his
father and the cause In which he was
reared II seemed there must be some.
thing further to the matter. Hints
thrown out since then have strengthen.
ell this Impression. The assertion Is
now made that the rupture between the
General and his son came about through
q demand from the former for fund
created and built up solely by the
American branch Of the army. This
was the "supernumcrarics'' fund, Il
benefit insurance, obtained from the
profits Of sales Of the War Cry. Gen.
Booth wanted this sum transferred
bodily to him to use elsewhere. liz
demanded It, AMI Ballington BOotl, nc.
fused to send It. He would have
been unjust to those who earned It and
to whom 1t rigl,tfully belonged had he
done otherwise than refuse. Hence
his removal, the story goes. II contains
the elements OF prOba bility, and IL vcri
| fed will rebound to the credit Of thu
stalwart young American and his wife
who already have the sympathy Of /,
large class Of the public.

One OF Laurium's deer hunters Who was

keep. He met an old friend who resided
at one OF the played-out mining locations
up that way who persuaded him to stay
at his farm and hunt, as there was plenty
Of deer in that vicinity. That night they
Sallied out with one gun and a headlight.
The Lauriumite carried the light and the
0ntonagon friend the gun. They had
not gone far when they saw a pair OF
shining bright eyes not many feet direct.

gun raised il. took steady aim and then
brought IL down without shooting. He
took another aim, but repeated the per-
torrance. The Laurium man was get
ting excited and tried to take the gun
away and shoot the deer himself, but his
friend would not let him. and il was well
be didn't. for the deer proved to be one
Of the horses OF the Ontonagon farmer.
The Lauriumites appear to have had
bad luck with their deer hunting, for the

that there was just two aud onehall
uinutes more plsyin time. Nov the ex-
citement was st the highest. and each
team did their utmost TO score the win

In their anxiety. some Of the players
became reckless. and the ever wstchiul
umpires called fouls on them. IL was on
one Of these that Johnson's team scored
another point by a Tree throw. The
timer announced hall minute more play
and there WAS some tall hustlipgIdone BY
Weir's men, but time was soon called and
left the score TO 3, in favor OF Iohnson's
team. Perhaps the most notable feature
oi the game was the ability OF j. A. Sci

much better now, and the same teams

were expressed at the time concerning
their future happiness. Unfortunately
the unexpected didn't happen IN thiscase
for the new bride did just what was ex-
pected. She refused to live with Lantto
and he came to Justice Fisher with his
tale oil woe. HIS honor gave him no

The Cornhill Magazine publishes GER
tain extracts from an old French jest book
which proves at least that jokes are not

They are comprised under the heading
Menagiana, and are extracts from the
conversations which took place at the
house Of Giles Menage, student and
writer OF the seventeenth century. He
was the author of much literature, both
poetry and critical prose, and was consid-
cred wit, but whether he and his friends
actually sparkled at their Wednesday gath

OF the conversation there:

There was an exciting game OF isket
ball at the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium last
night between two picked teams, Walter
Weir being captain OF one ard Will John
son captain OF the other. After playing
twenty minutes time was called THAT
constituting the first half), when the
score stood 2 to in favor OF Johnson's
team. These points were scored on free
throws for fouls made, OF which there
we're quite a number. There we're several
new men in each team, who had never
played before, which accounts for 10
many fouls having been made. Empires
Ellis and Sanders deserve great credit for
their vigilance, and keeping the men right
down to the rules.
After ten minutes rest, play was re.
sumed. The teams now changed goals,
and some n the men played in new posi-
tons. This half consisted OF better tea m
work, and Dooley and Weir, who played
for the basket on their team, passed the
ball to one another with great skin,
which soon resulted 10 Dooley making a
