A very cosy little Church home is the

was dedicated yesterday afternoon with
appropriate and impressive ceremonies.

When the congregation was organized,

On this special and memorable occa-

by profusion of flowers, and the

members of the congregation. Ad-

ROW BETWEEN GIRLS
Results in the Arrest of the Father
of One.

Thomas Winchler, a laborer living at
5o4 Chestnut street, was arrested by
Officer Scannell last evening on the
charge of drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. The man is accused of chas-
ing Lulu Day, aged thirteen, and
striking her with his fists The girl
lives with her parents at 216 West Sew
enth street, and claims that Winch!er
seized her by the arm at Seventh and
chestnut streets and threatened to
strike her. She broke away from him,
she says, and ran several blocks, with
Wtnchler in pursuit He caught her
again, according to her story, and
struck her about the body several
times.
Winchler's story is to the effect that
his daughter came home crying, and
said the Day girl had hurt her The
father then went out to inquire into
the matter, and ordered the Day girl
to go home. Winchler denies that he
struck the girl or took hold of her. He
will be given an opportunity to explain
his position to Judge Twohy today.

GOOSE SENSE.
How the Web-Footed Fowls of an
English Town Display 1t.

The sagacity of the goose is demonstrated
at Oxford, where the city owns a common
pasture that is accessible to all freeholders
of the town-that is citizens who own prop
erty-and such can pasture their domestic
animals there free of COST says the Oxford
England correspondent of the Chicago Rec
ord. Citizens who are not freeholders have
to get a license, for which they pay three
pence a week per animal and a penny per
week per goose The pasture at daybreak
Is well filled with cows, horses, donkeys,
sheep and other live stock, and hundreds Of
geese that roam in large hoCks; but each
goose is said to know his own master and
mistress, and even the children of the fam
lily to which he belongs, as if he or she had
the intelligence of dog or cat; but what is
more to their credit, when night falls the
great flock of geese on the common volun-
tarily divides itself into little punches. and
each bunch takes it's own path homeward
travelling in single file through the streets
They never stray into the wrong path; they
never get mixed up with the wrong compan-
ions, but with the cleaning they solemnIy
seek their roosts without troubling their
owners. This, shows that the Oxford goose is
as wise as his generation, and may be due TO
the influence of the university and the schools
for the higher education of women.

NEW BAKERY EDICT.
Retailers Must Pay Cash for All
Their Bread.

The large bakeries of the city have
notified all their retail customers that
hereafter bread will be sold forty
loaves for 81, and for cash only. The
action is due to the fact that some of
them have been cutting of prices, some
of the dealers getting more than forty
loaves, but the advance in flour has
put a stop to this. Some Of the big
bakeries now require their city sales
men to bring in cash for each day s
sales, which is a new rule, as formerly
many retailers paid their bills weekly
or daily, as they pleased.

HUNTING LIONS.
somaiiland the Favorite Haunt of
English Sportsmen.

Somaiiland the Favorite Haunt of
English Sportsmen.
In recent years scores of English
Africa on hunting expeditions.
Somaliland has been a favorite spot,
and the crack Of rifles there has be-
come familiar TO the natives, as well
as to the wild animals, says the Vt
Ianta Journal
AS a result lions are becoming
somewhat scarce, and elephants are
exceptionally rare. In order to get
shot at the king of beasts now 1t
is necessary to go back into the
country considerable distance,
where other hunters have not been
too often seen.
Hunting lions, as described by
those who have tried it, is a fasci-
mating sport. The element of dam
ger is largely imaginary, but there
is enough of the reality to add zest to
the sport. Two methods are in
vogue. The most common is to
track the lions to their resting
places and catch them while asleep.
Lions hunt at night and rest in a
cool, shady spot during the day. If
the weather is cloudy and they are
hungry they may stay out in the
open a little longer, but, as rule,
they crawl into a jungle soon after
sunrise and remain until night
again makes travel comfortable for
them. They can be soon worried
into exhaustion when the sun is
shining, and they endeavor to avoid
exertion when the mercury is high.
Tracking lions is described as en-
ticingly exciting to the Sportsman.
After striking the trail in the early
morning and following it for some
distance, the certainty of getting
sight of the game keeps hunter and.
servants in state of expectancy
that is trying. At times, if the
trail is fresh, the lion may be To-
Gated within few minutes.
At other times the beast may have
gone miles, and the tracking will oc-
cupy several hours. The character
of the soil has much to do with the
trailing, as on sandy ground the
spoor is plain and may be followed
as fast as the hunter cares to walk,
while on rocky soil the trail is often
lost and the hunter must proceed
with extreme caution.
The other popular way of bagging
the great game is to set a bait and
stay awake at night looking for the
lions. A donkey or the carcass of
a dead animal will serve as bait, and
will attract the hungry attention of
any stray lion that may pass.
In country where there are
many hyenas this method of hunt
ing lions is most satisfactory, as the
cries of the hyenas will lure the
larger game from places miles away.
OF course, moonlight nights are bet
ter for this form of hunting.
