MORAvIAN VIEW OF DEATH.
A Beautiful and Impressive Custom

A Beautiful and Impressive Custom
of the
Clifford Howard contributes to the
Ladies' Home Journal an interesting
article upon the Moravians of Bethle-
hem, Pa, and their religious customs:
upon the death of one of the con
gregation," he writes, "the event is an
nounced, not by the monotonous,
m%ournful tolling of the bell, but
by the deep-breathing, melodious
belfry steeple of the church by the
trombone choir; and as the deep, sweet
notes of the familiar hymn are borne
10 the people below they reverently
drop their work to listen. 'Hark!' they
whisper. the horns are blowing; some
one has gone home!' Gone home!'-
perhaps nothing more beautifully ex-
emplifies the perfect, unquestioning
faith of these devout people than that
expressive utterance, the sincerity of
which is ever demonstrated by the lack
of mourning at the passing away of a
member of the household, however
dearly beloved; so true and heartfelt is
the Moravian belief hat death is but
h entrance to a brighter, happier
home. The trombones are also used at
the touching funeral services held at
the grave; and amid their sad, yet in
spring, strains the departed one is laid
to his eternal rest. On all occasions
whether of death or joy, the trombones
lend their sweet solemnity in fitting
breath. From the steeple they herald
the festival day of each of the choirs,
and in all open-air services their mel
lifiuous tones are ever present."

Conductor Samuel Sharp, of a German
town local train, says the Philadelphia
Record. His parents had 10 children, of
whom he vas the youngest, and none of
them ever prospered. AS the thirteenth
child, however, Samuel has had more
troubles than any of his brothers and
sisters. After countless mishaps dur-
ing his school days he started in to earn
his living as a newsboy on the cars
when he was IS years of age. One Fri
day, the 18th day of the month, not
long after HI entered the service, there
was a wreck on Ii road and he was
laid up in q hospital with a couple of
broken ribs for 10 weeks.
Some years later, when a brakeman,
his uncle died and left him $1,000, but
just as he was about to get married on
the money the bank failed and he lost
it all, feeling, of course, more disap-
pointed han If it had never been left to
him. Gradually he worked his way up
and became baggage master, and then
he did marry. Unwittingly, however,
he went to housekeeping at 1913 South
Thirteenth street and his young wife
died within the year, leaving him brok-
e~n-hearted. Since he has been conduc-
tor Ii train has run over 10 men and
he hopes that he has now reached the
limit. 1t is an utter impossibility to
get him to punch the 18th trip on a COM
mutation ticket, and when hard pressed
he hands his punch to the passenger,
with the request to do it for him.

AN ENJOYABLE BOAT EXCURSION.

A crowd OF our young people enjoyed a
rare treat, last Tuesday evening, on board
the ferry-boat, Laura. A boat ride is one
of the e~nioyments of life in which the
young people OF our city seldom participate
so to the many other charms of the trip was
added that of novelty. The young people
began to gather at the wharf shortly after
seven O'Clock and Just as the sun was
making his bed in the west, among cloud
of purple n gold, the boatmen loosed
the cables that bound them to the shore
and the boat started on her voyage. A
party of young people from Richmond
were present. by special i%nvition, and
added much to the enjoyment of the &C.
c%asion. Music and laughter so quickly
passed the time away that the three hours
spent in going up stream seemed but one.
The boat landed on the upper part of
Workman's island and remained there
while the young ladies spread a cloth on
the lower deck and therein displayed the
many choice dishes they had prepared to
tempt the appetites of their escorts and
prove to them their skill In the culinary
art. The refreshments were heartily en-.
ioyed by all, their appetites having been
~ Sdib w oEeeNe. ABOUT
ll:3O the boat turned her head down
stream, the music recommended and
everyone seemed anxious to enjoy the
remaining part of the trip as thoroughly
as they had the preceding part.
Less than an hour was spent in
returning from the island and
with hand shaking and ''good-nights''
the crowd from Richmond disembarked
at the northside landing, while whats
the matter with Richmond?" was re-
sponded to vociferously. The boat then
proceeded to this side of the river and the
members of the party were soon safe
in their homes. And, so, In spite
Of the prophecies of prudent parents
and the warnings of the superstitious
when six couples n the driver were
seen IN a wagouette on their way to the
river, the evening passed of without a
mishap and not even the slight excite
ment usually oocasioned by a man falling
overheard, occurred to disturb the enjoy
ment of the event. About thirty couples
from this city and six couples from Rich
mond composed the crowd ana it was
agreed to take a trip down the river some
time in June.

THE RAT-cATcHER OF PARIS.
An Official who Has Caught Over
100000 Rats In His Time.

An Official Who Has Caught Over
100000 Rats In His Time.
The French are essentially a prac-
teal people. They leave little to
chance, and this is probably why they
+ so successful in business, a the
Sketch. Paris boasts of an official rat.
catcher, a certain NJ. Henri Dayve, who
is, in his way, quite a character. He
has served the town in his capacity OF
chief rat eXecutioner for IS years, and
he tells with pride that during that
time he has caught, unaided by the use
of a trap, over 1000, 900 rats with his
OWL hands. He is extremely proud OF
his profession, and on his card is en-
blazoned a crest formed by two rats
rampant.
Nowadays NJ. Dawes labors are com
paratively uninteresting, but during
the siege the official rat-catcher made
a small fortune, for not only the COM
mon folk but the purveyors of the great
restaurants were only too glad to pay
20 cents each for a well-fed rodent. In
deed, In time a plump a ran up to
as much as 60 cents. NJ. Dayve and
his assistants-for his post is by no
means a sinecure-searched out their
victims in the famous sewer NJ. DayVe
often turns an honest penny by selling
live rats to those who delight in what
may be styled n rat battue, for there
Ia very little sport about rat-catching
conducted on the prepared rodent plan.
An amateur will often pay as much as
Sl3 for 100 live rats.
