NO NEW PASIIMES FOR TFifM
Pennsylvania Dutch Seek AmuSe-
 mentS of Their ForefafherS.

Probably nowhere are the social
 pastimes of the fathers preserved and indulged in to such an extent as among the Pennsylvania Dutch The apple cut, the corn hushing the quitting bee, the old fashioned country dance fur nish amusement and recreation to the buxom maiden and the swains of these people today as they did to those of century agc-that is-eXcepting the Mennonite Amish and Dunkards. Those pious branches Of the Pennsyl- vania Dutch do not indulge in such dissipations, as it would place them forever out of the pale of their church. A baptism, a love feast, or a funeral is the only recreation or pastime they a-e permitted to enjoy. A Pennsylvania Dutch dance is kept up from early evening until daylight. There is no going to bed after a dance. The WO-
 men go at once to their household du
 ties and the men to their labors in the fields, the same as if they had slept as usual, according to the custom of their fathers. Work indoor and out, begins as soon as it is light enough to see and continues until it is too dark to see, winter and summer.
 The Pennsylvania Dutch farmer Is as honest as the day is long, and is most ciose-fsted and exacting in a bar gain. Driving long distances to mar ket, he will kaggle over a dime in bargain that may involve a hundred dollars worth of produce, and if as- sured that by going on half q dozen miles or so he will be able to sell his goods and get that dime he will not hesitate to make the journey. The ex- tra time and labor he does not stop to take into account The old time Penn sylvania Dutch families scourage and disapprove of marriage that will de- stroy the race purity of their b.ood, hence marriages with outside people are not frequent This accounts for the remarkable pres ssrvation of the lan- guage, the customs, and the traditions

PASTOR oUsTED FOR SMOKING.
Condemned, Too, for Reading Newspa-
 pers and Owing Few Debts.

The Rev. George R. HeT'Est has been summarily removed from the passionate Of St. Pauls German Lutheran Evan gelical church at Bayonne, N. J., be- cause he smokes, he reads newspapers. he owes a few smal de'5ts and he dis cusses current events occasionally in a neighbOring grocery sore. The Rev MT. HeriDsc 77G5 given twen- ty-three minutes notice of the drinl up- on the foregoing charges. The ecclesiastical court which sat in judgment upon him consisted of nine teen members of the congregation. None of the other members knew of the proceedings until all was over and the pastor dismissed. The suddenness Of the affair almost stunned MT Herbst He could scarcely do more than eX- press surprise that smoking, reading and owing debts should De elevated in to offenses calling for trial at all.
 ''The only grounds upon which a Lutheran synod pastor can be dis missed,' he pointed out, "are immOr- ality and false doctrine. /"
 In vain he argued that none of the things he was accused of doing came under either of 1hose catagories. He admitted that he smoked and derived a great deal of pleasure from it, too.
 lie also admitted reauing the news papers and added that he would feel ashamed of himself if he neglected do- ing so. As for owing debts, he said the church owed him S64, and this amount would more than cover all lis out standing bills.
 And, besides" he added, ''it must be borne in mind that my salary is $500 a year, and that I have to support a wife and three daughters out Of this and keep up a. respectable parsonage, too"
 The action of the Rev Mr Herbst's judges is severely criticised by nearly all the rest of the congregation. They win appeal to the eastern district of the Missouri synod to have him rein stated. Failing there, they will take the matter to the courts.-New York World
