A Wife's Influence

According to an interesting ar
ticle in q recent number Of the
London Baptist, written by his
old friend. Rev. Charles VII
Iiams, DR.. McLaren's name may
be added to that Of the long anG
growing list Of illustrious men
who have owed very much of
their greatness and success to
their wives. Mrs. Gladstone's
name is likely to fiud a place
among the noble women of this
class. Mr.. Williams says:
"When at Southampton an
other influence came into his life.
OF that I dare not write. But
never was wife a truer helpmeet,
or wiser counsellor, or a greater
power for good than was dear
Mrs. Maclaren. Hearers and
readers of the doctors sermons
can never estimate Alright their
Indebtedness to her. She sat
often at the Masters feet, and |
know that for many a year nv
friend was an immense gamer by
his companionship with her-but
| commit a trespass. Still, DR..
Maclaren would not have been
what he is apart from the gentle
and evangelical influence OF his
sainted PARTNER.

Lieutenant HObsOn

brave Lieutenant Hobson and his
companions when they were ex-
changed for Spanish prisoners
and came into our lines at San
tiagO, and afterwards were put
on board Admiral Simpsons
fla gship outside the harbor. And
everybody will read with inter-
est this letter written by bis
mother from her home at Green
boro, Ala, dated June II. to a
friend in New York City:
Dear Friend: Your letter Of
congratulation reached me a few
days ago. | fully appreciate and
agree with you in your enthus-
iastic tribute to my boys heroism.
In accomplishing his daring
achievement l realize he was
guided by our kind heavenly
Father. The appreciation of the
country, his state, and native
town is most gratifying to us all.
1t is but natural that my mother
pride should be pleased at the
recognition of my boy by the
nation and its rulers. Such re-
cognitlon IS very happy, but it
has told us nothing new of his
grand worth. A nobler son no
mother ever had. He has been a
mighty tower of strength to me
for years. Never forgetting the
many demands of d large house
hold, it has always been his
pleasure to share his salary with
us. In every way he has been a
help and a comfort. The three
years he was studying abroad
there never failed to come from
him the most loving letters, and
his resources were ever at our
command. The gentleSt, nOblest
nature, with every attraction of
person and character, he claims
the admiration Of every one who
knows him. To US, nearest and
dearest to him, it took no San
tiago to proclaim him q hero.
He has been to us so long the
truest hero-as noble son and
idollzed brother. The plaudits of
the world are his, and while his
tory will record the daring deed
of his ,heroism, the gentler,
sweeter, nobler beauty of his
nature can be known only to
those to whom he is "first- best"
Alfectlonately yours,
SALLIE G.. HOBsON.
1t is gratifying, too, to know
that Lieutenant HobSon IS a
staunch Clrlstlan young man.
When cadet at Annapolis he
never neglected his Bible reading
and private devotions, although
ridiculed by some Of his associates.
He was also president Of the
Annapolis Y. NJ. G.. A. just
before leaving KY West with
the squadron he wrote 10 his
sister:
"Feelinr that there has been
earneStneSS of effort IN my life,
ready to accept any consequences,
hope to put aside every thought
and oend entirely to the work in
hand, to go in for action without
any preoccupation or diverting
thought, leaving all issues to the
God that rules over all, TO whom
we must refer the mystery Of life
and the mystery of death"
His young brother, just about
to enter West Point, said the
other day that he was no more
proud Of his brother Richmond
now than he had always been.
He we'll knew the stuff that was
in him. He remarked, too, that
though the Spanlards would un-
doubtedly treat his brother well,
yet they would never be able to
make him take their wine, as he
never drinks. 1t is a good thing
when a nation can number

Swayed by q Play.

An impressive instance of play that
influenced human life comes from one
of the northern towns, where a very
striking play was being performed in
which the disastrous consequences fol-
lowing ON the love of two men for the
same woman were realistically present
ed. \ young engineer who had cOnceiv-
ed a violent affection for girl who had
resented his attentions in view of the
fact that she loved another man, who
chanced to be the engineers bosom
friend, witnessed this play one even
ing, and it made very deep impression
ON him, as it seemed almost to have
been written to apply to his own un-
happy situation. Act by act the tragic
story was unfolded, jealousy of the dis
appointed lover ending in crime and
punishment, and when at length the
curtain fell the engineer had come to a
decision. He went home, packed up a
few necesSaries and week later set
out for Australia, where, by lucky
stroke year later, he made mighty
fortune. He attributed all his success
to the play in question, for had he never
seen it he would never have gone away
from England, and perhaps some awful
occurrence might have arisen from his
unrequited passion. Standard.

THE FARMER WON.
But Schaefer Considers 1t the Shortest
Game of His Life.

Game OF His Life.
'Some years ago." said a sporting
man, ''when Schaefer kept a billiard
room in this city, he was always ready
TO play all comers who desired a game.
Many strangers and people unknown TO
Schaefer naturally strolled in; many,
too, who probably did not know him.
But it made no difference to Schaefer
Sometimes strangers would desire 70
play for money, but this Schaefer would
never do. To all such propositions he
would say: No, won't play for mon
ey, but I'll tell you what 1 will do
will play game, the loser to treat the
house.
Zone day an old farmer entered the
place, and after wandering about look
ing at the pictures ON the walls and ex-
amining the tables he asked if there
was any one present who would like 10
play him game of billiards Schaefer,
as usual, said that he would play the
stranger.
How much shall we play for?' ask
ed the farmer
"'I never play for money replied
Schaefer, but will play you for the
drinks for the house
All right, said the farmer. How
many points shall we play?'
oh, replied Schaefer demurely in
all the consciousness of his superior
powers, well just play until you are
satisfied, and we will call that a game. ,
1.-THE crowd smiled as the players
prepared for the contest. The balls were
placed on the table, and Schaefer
brought out his favorite cue, and it fell
to his lot TO open the game.
1.-THE opening shot in billiard game
is a somewhat difficult one, as most
players know, and Schaefer, probably
through indifference, missed it. He not
only missed it, but left the balls close
together near one of the cushions. 1t
was what is termed IN billiard parlance
set up
1.-The old farmer carefully chalked
his cue, and after deliberation made the
shot He then gazed at the balls mo-
ment, laid down his cue and exclaimed 4:
am satisfied
"The score was then to 0 in favor
of the old farmer, but as Schaefer had
agreed to make the game as long or
short as the farmer desired he had to be
satisfied. Schaefer of course had to in
vite all present, including his conqueror,
to partake of the hospitality of the
house. AS the crowd laughed and drank
Schaefer remarked that the game was
the shortest he had ever played, and
probably the shortest on record. New

LOVED LIFE TOO WELL.
Ancient Natchez Indian Who Rebelled
Against Being Sacrificed.

Against Being Sacrificed.
One of the repulsive features of the
laws under which the Natchez Indians
were governed was that when mem
Der of the royal family of the nation
died it was necessary that several others
of the people should accompany him to
the tomb by suffering death at the
hands of executioners. When the
"great sun, " the hereditary chief of
the whole nation, died, all his wives,
in case he were provided with more
than one, and also several of his sub
jects, were obliged to follow him into
the vale of shadows. The little suns,
secondary chiefs, and also members of
the royal family, likewise claimed,
when dying, their tribute of death from
the living. In addition TO this, the in
exorable law also condemned to death
any man of the Natchez race who had
married girl Of the royal line of the
"suns" On the occasion of her death
he was called upon to accompany her.
81 will narrate to you upon this sub
ject," writes an old French chronicler
of Louisiana, 1.-The story of an Indian
who was not in a humor to submit to
this law. His name was Etteacteal. He
had contracted an alliance with the
suns. The honor came near having a
fatal result for him. His wife fell sick,
and as soon as he perceived that she
was approaching her end he took to
flight, embarking in a pirogue on the
Mississippi and sought refuge in New
Orleans. He placed himself under the
protection of the governor, who was at
that time M. de Bienville, offering him
self to be the governors hunter. The
governor accepted his services, and in
terested himself in his behalf with the
Natchez, who declared, in answer, that
he had nothing to fear, inasmuch as the
ceremony was over, and as he had not
been present when it took place he was
no longer available as a candidate fo1
execution. New Orleans Picayune.

HAPPENS ONLY IN NOVELS.
British Emigration as English Writers See
1t and as 1t Really Is.


England no doubt loves Us dearly,
but the English authors have not yet
discovered that fact in its entirety
Clark Russell, Max Pemberton and An
thOny Hope, to say nothing of Conan
Doyle and Rudyard Kipling, will have
it that all Americans are Yankees, al
though they would resent the charge
that all Englishmen are cockneys.
Another symptom of the drift is in
relation to emigration from Great Brit
ain. Statistics show that an enormous
number of people come to this country
from Great Britain, but the noveIists
never heard of it. Micawber and his
interesting family went to Australia
and got rich. So did every other emf
grant that Dickens sent abroad, unless,
like Martin Chuzzlewit and Mark Tap
ley, they were sent TO this country TO
point a moral and adOrn a tale. All
English writers resemble Dickens in
that respect. In their stories the emf
grants all go to Australia, Canada, At
rica-anywhere but the United States.
This trait comes under the head of
loyalty to the CROWN They know per-
fectly we'll that the British emigrant,
unless assisted by a British society,
takes himself and belongings to this
country, and even if the society kindly
lands him in Canada he takes the first
chance of skipping over the border The
only time he goes TO the colonies"
with cheerful alacrity is in the pages Of
a British nOvel.-Chicago Times-Her-

Why Princeton A ppeaIed to the CIevelands

shortly after the removal of the
Cleveland family to Princeton an un-

Cleveland, was visiting her." writes a
close friend of the former mistress of
the White House i'll The Ladies' Home
Journal. Zone day while the two wo-
men were i'll the nursery with the three
little Cleveland girls, the friend said
jokingly to Mrs. Cleveland:
Mercy me, Frances, how are you
ever going to get all your daughters
married off? You see from me that mann
ma could not do it in New York
"'Exactly, replied Mrs. Cleveland.
But what better place could there be
than a college town like Princeton, I
should like to know?'"
