of the guardians of the peace for almost
attended. but he never takes up col
lection. He also is above criticism.
A black man, who says that he was
born in Africa but educated by mis-
sionary, is seen every Sunday after
noon in the sections densely populated
by negroes, singing the songs which
catch the fancy of his hearers, and
preaching to them in very intelligent
manner. He sings Throw Out the Life
Line" when down by the navy yard;
and he sings the Wonderful Story of
Love" in the alleys where crime is
known to abound. His voice is melodi-
Gus, appealing, thrilling. Many of his
hearers have learned his songs, and join
in the choruses. He never takes up
collection.
The genuine, honest, sincere and eff
fective workers in the cause of reli-
gion who go about among the masses
of all classes in public places singing
and preaching do not go as penny
catchers, and they reach those for
whom the Gospel seems to have been
intended. These peripatetic Gospel
chariot fellows, who manifestly are
working confidence games upon the
credulous in the guise of evangelism,
are disgracing eastern cities, and their
recent performances in this capital
have attracted such universal attention
and condemnation that it is simply
question of time when the law will be
enacted which will enable the pro-
tectors of the people to drive them from
our streets, as the money changers
were once driven from the temple.

GIadstone,s Knowledge.

As showing the wide range of Glad
stones knowledge there are many anec-
dotes. On one occasion two gentlemen,
invited as guests at a table where Glad
stone was expected, made wager that
they would start conversation on a
subject about which even Gladstone
would know nothing. To accomplish
this end they read up an old magazine
article on some unfamiliar subject CON
nected with Chinese manufactures.
When favorable opportunity came
the topic was started. and the two con-
spirators watched with inward amuse-
ment the growing interest in the sub
iect which Mr.. Gladstone's face be-
trayed. Finally, he joined in the con
versation. and their amusement turned
into gnashing of teeth-to speak fig
urativeiy-when Gladstone said: "Ah.
gentleman. 1 perceive yod have been
reading a magazine article ] wrote
some so or 40 years ago!"-Golden

singers, good speakers and noble work

them. There is no collection taken up
at these public meetings. There is no
SAVIOR of money-making to destroy the
genuine character of the efforts which
are made.
Then there is Gospel wagon which
is furnished by earnest young men and
women who belong to various churches.
This dissemination of light is also hon
est, genuine, and goes about doing
good. On Sunday afternoons and even
ings crowds gather in the byways aid
highways, where the light of religion
never would penetrate but for these
kindly incursions. They come with
songs, prayers, thanksgivings, SER
mons, exhortations and solicitations
for good and true lives, with promises
and portents of benefits in the world
to come.
There is a venerable member of the
police force who, for many years, has
taken his stand in various public places
on Sunday afternoons preaching the
Gospel. On these occasions he appears
in citizens dress, and very few of his
hearers know that he has been one

THEY DREAD PENNIES.
Street Car Conductors Always Try to
Palm Them on Upon
Women.

Anyone with keen sense of hui
NOR may spend very enjoyable hour
or more in the cable or electric cars if
he keeps his eyes open and his senses
on the alert for the different tiffs be-
tween the women passengers and the
conductors.
Why is it, have often asked myself,
that conductors seem to save their
pennies for women, and seldom if ever
give those same coppeIs in change to
men? As a rule the women are the
ones who slowly count out the five
pennies for the impatiently waiting
conductor, and his face is study as
he sullcnly waits for the slow perform
ance to be gone through with.
He will just hold those coppers in his
left hand, and the very first woman who
tenders him a dime for fare receives
those pennies in exchange.

they hoodoos? Or is it on account Of

it may, there is silent warfare be-

ital the negroes who have white blood
in their veins are proud of their mani
fest bar sinister. The colored girls
with light compilations have black men
for beaus, and take black men for hus-
bands. One of them explained this to
the writer, saying: BLACK men bow
low to the white blood in my veins.
The young men who are as white as
am believe they are as good as | am
But the black fellows worship me for
my white blood, and hence | prefer
them. 1t is the same with all mulatto

The black preacher and his mulatto
wife stayed here four days and gath
cred many hundreds of pennies and
nickels from the colored population.
Then they drove over the aqueduct
bridge, and went into Virginia. Where
they go next can be conjectured. The
peripatetic gospel chariot is the pre-
cursor of new style of gypsy for this
country.
After the departure of that chariot
there came into the streets of George
town, which is now part of this cap
ital, big brawny blacksmith-looking
fellow. He had good-sized wagon,
and an organ in 1t. But he had no wife,
no children and no assistants. He was
the whole show, the real thing, himself.
He never knew how to sing. and yet he
lifts up voice which would make
mule envious. and chants semblances
of Gospel tunes. He gathers crowds,
and then breaches TO them. He is il
literate, but knows a great deal about
the Bible of course his information is
superficial. but he has read the Bible
or had it read to him, so that he can
make apt quotations. His uncultured
voice is strong and rasping. 1t roars
and reverberates down the street. He
talks earnestly. like sincere Salvation
Army workers talk. But in due course
of time he takes up his hat, announces
that a collection is to be taken for the
benefit of the cause of religion, and
then passes his own hat about the
crowd. He gathers in goodly number
of small coins at each performance.
There is no law to cover offenses of
this character. No state has enacted
legislation on the subject: and con-
gress has never taken up the matter.

in the guise of religion cannot go on

WORST OF BOY CRIMINALS.
Is Only Fifteen. but Has Committed
Almost Every Crime In the
Category.

Incendiarism, burglary, larceny, as
sault and vagrancy are some of the
charges which George Spillet has faced.
And he is only Is years old. On one he
has served two years in the New York
house of refuge, another was with
drawn, and on the other occasion he
was given his liberty because of his ten
der age.
Spillet was eight years old when the
police arrested him for burning barn
owned by Cupid Williams at Flushing.
The boy pleaded that a man had given
him matches and that he had accident
ally dropped some by the barn. He was
let go.
A few years afterward he was arrest
ed for stealing money from the Long
Island railroad station at Whitestone.
He pleaded guilty and was sent to the
house of refuge.
A barn used by Edward Cooley, the
station agent, and owned by the rail-
road, was burned recently. Detectives
Allen and Fuller believed that Spillet
had fred the barn for revenge. The
lad admitted that he had done it ito get
square and see the barn burn" He said
Harry Goster and Harry Metser helped
him. They were also arrested, but
Magistrate Healey dismissed them, as
the only evidence against them was
that of Spillet. The latter was held for
the grand jury.
After Spillet left the house of refuge
he stabbed companion at Whitestone.
The charge was withdrawn. A year
ago he and several other youths were
arrested, charged with robbing the
Whitestone public school and stealing
books. They were discharged.

TRUE REFINEMENT.
Is Always Allied to Simplicity, and
Display and Ceremony Are
Poor Substitutes.

Refreshment is not fastidiousness. 1t
is not luxury. 1t is far removed from
excess or waste. A person truly re-
fined will not squander or needlessly
consume anything. Refinement is al
ways allied to simplicity and judicious
and tasteful employment of the means
of good and happiness which it has at
command. 1t seeks to divest itself of
supertluities and aspires continually to
the utmost possible purity.
Refinement leads to personal cleanli-
ness and elegant neatness, good taste
and simplicity in dress. Loudness or
fashiness is repugnant to it's spirit. In
its home and surroundings, whether
palatial, affluent or humble, the same
chasteness and natural grace are main
tanned. The abode of genuine refine
ment and a mere pretender to it are
very different. In the former you will
find no excess, gaudiness, or false gilt
tering; but the latter abounds in it,
In personal manner refinement is
must conspicuous. Display and cere-
mony are not identical with refinement,
and are poor substitutes for it.
There is, of course, no refinement like
that of the heart, which impels its pos
SCISSOR to show, on all occasions,
thoughtful and kindly regard for the
feelings of others. No adherence to
etiquette can compare with it for the
spontaneous observation of true and
gratifying politeness. = Philadelphia
Press.
