Dissertation of Relic Hunters.

Relic hunters in the cemetery Of West
Hartford, Conn, formerly known as the
Old Burying Ground. have Clipped
many pieces from a gravestone there
bearing the inscriptions: Noah Web
ster, Esq" Their belief is, of course,
that it marks the grave OF. the famous
photographer. A member Of the Gem
etery committee has found t neces-
sary to erect the following sign: "This
is not the grave Of the dictionary man"
The body Of the photographer is buried
in Grove Street cemetery, New Haven.

THE HAYES HOMESTEAD.
The Presidents Father Was Not Born
IN tic Vermont House.

| IN TIE Vermont House.
| So much has been said and written
concerning the historical Hayes home
stead in West Brattieboro. which was
built more that hundred years ago
and which has been credited, although
enormously, With being the birthplace
of the father Of President Hayes, that a
| brief mention of the Old documents and
| other antiquities that are to be found
there, relics of long past days, is needed
to make the story complete. The old
| homestead was built about the year
1890 by rutherford Hayes, grandfather
OF President Hayes, who came from New
Haven, Conn, in 177S, and located in
West Brattleboro in the house where
Mrs. Myron Thurber now lives 1t was
first occupied as private residence, but
in 1896 it was converted into a tavern
and became favorite stopping place
for statesmen, transfers and others
who felt, or imagined they felt, the need
of inauguration by means of liquid re-
freshment. The bar-room was in the
northeast corner of the tavern and the
bar was next to the, partition between
the room and the hall, hole being cut
through the partition for the accommo-
dation of transfers. who could get their
drinks without freezing out the bar
room loafers by opening the door and
allowing the cold winter air to rush, in.

FIRST PRESBYTERIAN
'And For Their Sakes I Sanctify
Myself"

The Rev. Burt Estes Howard preached
yesterday morning in the First Presby-
terian church from the text John xvii,
10: And for their sakeS l sanctify my
self that they themselves also may be
sanctified in truth The story of Jesus,
the Christ, is the story of a life of utter
unselfshness. 1t was unselfish because
ii was the expression of love that was
awful in the intensity of it's yearning
over the poor and miserable, and sinful.
Love is measured not in degrees of pas
sion, but in terms of self-repression and
self-giving. Great as We're the works of
the Lord, profound as were the words of
his teaching, and transcendantly pure
and holy as was his character, yet none
of these things, nor all of them combined,
give us a true knowledge of the spirit of
Jesus himself, or the spirit he sought to
implant in human life as the organizing
force of the Christian society which he
called the kingdom of God. We must go
back of what he said and did, back of the
phenomena of his life, and ask why he
did these things if we would understand
him at all.
The very soul of Christ, the very heart
of the gospel. is breathed out in the SEN
tence For their sakes l am sanctifying
myself that they may be also sanctifled
In truth" This is the true motive of
Christ's Christianity. But it doesn't fit
in very we'll with your thought and mine.
about our own relation to the men and
things about us; it doesn't fit in with
your practice and mine in the world of
religion or active life. If we should sift
out the motives that dominate both our
thinking and our doing, fear we should
be painfully surprised to find how many
are purely selfish, how few are "for
their sakes." To be Christian is to have
the spirit of Christ, and the spirit of
Christ is the spirit of love that seeketh
not its own. 1t sounds strange to our
ears that are turned to an individualistic
philosophy TO hear Jesus say that he was
sanctifying himself for the sake of some
body else, when we take the word
