CHURCH MADE A SALOON.
The Chancel Becomes a Bar, and q
Stage Takes the Place of
the Altar

Milwaukee. Feb. 6-Captain Fred
Pabst has done many things anent his
great brewery to cause comment, but
his latest move in buying one of the
oldest churches in the city and trans
forming the house of worship into sa-
loon, the likeness Of which does not
exist in this country, surpasses all his
previous exploits.
The First German Methodist church
was established half a century ago 1t
adjoins his brewery, and has for a long
time been greatly desired by the brewer
so he paid a handsome price for it, and
the congregation moved into another
home The building is now being trans
formed into a saloon
In the basement, where Sunday school
was formerly held, a beer vault will be
established, the old chancel being used
as the bar. In the auditorium of the
church proper a banquet hall is being
fitted out, and where the altar was
there is now being erected a stage for
the entertainment OF the guests who
may meet there.
The beer vault will be fitted out in old
TeutOnian style with historic battle
axes and furs for decorations. The
whole building will be made as unique
as possible, and will be remodeled at
big expense. The church spire will be
transformed into an observatory.

CARING FOR THE COACHMEN

Washington Spec. Chicago Record-I
A very commendabIe practice prevails
in New York this season of serving hot
coffee and sandwiches to the coachmen
of the guests at dinner parties, recep-
tions and balls. The idea was suggest
ed last winter by Bishop Potter, after
an accident caused by the drunkenness
of a coachman who carried a bottle of
whisky in his pocket to keep his blood
warm, and declared that he could not
prevent numbness in his arms and legs
without taking something warm inside
Of him. This set people thinking, and
Mrs. Levi P. Morton, wife of the former
vice president, late last winter was the
first to put the plan into operation. She
engaged a wheeled restaurant belonging
to the Church Temperance society to
come TO her house at midnight, while
she was giving a ball, and remain there
until her guests had departed, serving
sandwiches and hot coffee to the coach
men in waiting. This winter it has been
quite the fad, and the wagons of the
temperance society, which during the
day and the early evening are to be
found where the saloons are the thick
est, selling coffee and sandwiches at a
nominal price to wayfarers, have been
engaged somewhere almost every night

SOUVENIR SPOONS.
IFrom Harper's Bazar.1

The fad of the souvenir spoon has ap-
parently had its day, and young women
no longer care to make collections Of
spoons with architectural emblazonry
in the bowls and the figures of states
men or Indian warriors carved in relief
work on the handles. Yet there are
souvenir spoons which are very quaint
and interesting, particularly when they
are dainty in form and design, and have
some historic association of memorial
significance.
Just an ordinary teaspoon which has
been in ones family for several gener-
atoms surpasses in interest and value
all the spoons of the market place, be
the market place the ends of the earth.
This queer, thin, plain. little spoon, with
the initials of the great grandmother
when she was a bride engraved on the
top of the handle-What a history il
has had, what incidents it has SEEN
what sentiments II inspires, Births and
marriages and deaths. fortunes won
and lost, careers splendid and on the
wane, family festivals, family sorrows
all have been connected somehow
with the little spoon and the set to
which it belonged. Family silver in
daily use through passing generations
grows precious with that worth which
is measured in no bankers account

CRASH OF FAST MAILS.
Two Come Together With Fatal
Results on the Grand Trunk.

INLAY City, Mich, Feb. 6.-Chicago &
Grand Trunk passenger train No. 1
west bound, plunged full speed into
passenger train No. 8. east bound while
the latter was standing at the station
here today. The results of the crash
were fatal and otherwise disastrous.
The following were killed:
ENGINEER FAIRBANKS, OF the
west bound train.
EDWARD REID. of LenOx, Mich,
mail clerk of west bound train.
THOMAS STUART, of Lansing, mail
clerk, east bound.
The injured:
Engineer Mahan of the east bound
train, several ribs broken.
- Burns, of Lapeer, passenger on
east bound train, leg broken.
Ripley White, of Lapeer, passenger,
east bound train. ankle bruised.
- English, StratrOy. Ont, slightly
bruised.
Both trains were fast mail trains. The
eastbOund was standing near the sta
ton. waiting for the coming train to
pass in accordance to custom. The lat
ter instead of sIackening and stopping,
crashed into No. 6. The employees of the
westbound train and the passengers
of the eastbound suffered the most. The
locomotives were both badly wrecked
and the mail cars are damned across
the tracks. All the passenger coaches
remain on the tracks Why the west
bound train failed to stop is yet IN

TO BREAK ON COPPER
That Is Where the Boom is to Be
Finally Wrecked

New York. Feb 6-The Times Lon
don financial correspondent cables:
No sooner have we got a per cent
bank rate that we begin to talk of Pc
per cent. There can be no question that
We are gOrged with bankers money
and are rich in credit though poor in
cash. It is all your fault First you sold
US at high prices unusual quantities of
food, and then, instead of taking cash
as payment, you kindly bought from Us
your own securities, with the result
that we seem richer than ever, even
after paying your bill, probably on the
balance between exports and imports
of forty million pounds, which is much
larger than the average of recent years
The chairman of one of our greatest
city banks the other day estimated the
income of the nation from foreign in
vestments to be less by e5,000.00o now
than it was a year ago, solely because
of the splendid vigor with which you
had bought your own railroad securities
formerly held here. This is an exagger-
alton, because for the first few months
we sold only non-dividend paying Sc
curities. But now America is taking
away our Pennsylvania New York Cen
trails etc, in tens of thousands a week,
and we are becoming poorer in revenue
with every month that passes.
But many individuals are richer in
free capital. Therefore we are getting
more and more into the mood for a
colossal gamble That gamble is already
in full swing. but not in your railroad
securities. The Kaffir magnates have
tons are selling Americans to buy South
African shares. Paris is doing likewise,
although it would fain take a hand in
your railroad stocks if it knew how.
The copper gamble has brought the
bourse and the American market into
more intimate contact than ever before
That may be the only good result that
this gamble will yield Past experience
has taught US to look for d smash at
the end of every attempt to corner the
supply of this metal, because it is one
of the commOnest and most easily
mined in the world, and because the
manufacturers always fall back as
much as possible on scrap copper when
the new supplies are restricted So our
specializing public is taking little share
in the copper hoist Those who hold
Rio Tintos, Anaconda and Cape copper
shares are likely to sell out. and thus
both the metal and the shares find their
way more and more into the hands of
the wealthy few controlling the maneu-
yer.
The cool heads on our stock exchange
are already beginning to look around
for a Paris bank or two to smash, and
when that event occurs it may bring
revolution in its train. What will hap
pen to the American people then we can
not vet attempt to guess, but our minds
are fully made up that losses to be ulti-
mately realized on the copper rig

Famous Cd stone MiIL

There IS one thing in Newport that
the blizzard couldn't stir-the old stone
mill The fact seems to be that this
old Norseman relic grows more solid.
StOlid and fixed the longer it is exposed
to the elements. Assail it ever so fur
iously, from the north. from the south,
from the east or from the west, the
storms of years make no impression on
ii, except, mayhap. to press its ever
lasting foundations firmer in their bed.
Generations of Newporters come and
go, but the old mill goes on forever.
Drenching rains can not soften its
sides, heaving frosts can not stir its
arches, freezing SHOWS can not split its
partS-it is indestructible- Forty CEN
turtles pretty soon will look down on the
old structure. With the same smile of
approval that they favored the pyra-
mids Of Egypt with when the great Ma
pOleOn stood at their base. If ever mu-
tilatiOn or destruction comes to the old
mill it will come not from the elements.
but from the same icOnoclastic hand
that for military purposes is now en-
ployed in annihilating the cid historic
dumplings across the bay.-Newport

A MARVEL TO SURGEONS.
With a Crushed Spinal Column and
His Body Half Paralyzed
This Man Lives

Wilmington, O., Feb. 6.-One of the most
unusual and pitiabIe scenes ever Witnessed
in the court room occurred when. George
F. Savage. a young man from Branches
ter, this county, was carried into the hall
Of justice on stretcher to give his testi-
mony and be in attendance in a suit in
which he is plaintiff against the Balti-
more and Ohio Southwestern Railway
company for $4,000 damages for injuries
received while in the employ of the com
pany.
He was injured while endeavoring to
make a flying switch. He was struck
in the middle of the back by the car,
When help reached him it was thought
he was dying. An examination revealed
the fact that seven sections of the spinal
column were disIOcated. The surgeons
said that he would live only few hours.
His body and lower eXtremities from the
injury downward at once became para
lived.
Contrary to all the medical theories he
began to recover from his injuries. and
within three months he was removed to
the house of his parents. Though bed
ridden he has enjoyed exceptionally good
health for one in hi sconditiOn. His mind
is clear and he has full control of his
arms, head and body above the injury
and apparently suffers no pain. He can
not sit up. but assists those caring for
him in being moved

WHAT BAILEY PLANNED.
He Probably Has Elected a Demo
cratic Senator From West Virginia

Washington, Feb. 6.-Great interest at
taches to the decision of the judiciary
committee of the house as to the mem
bers who served in the army violating
their commission, because 1T is to be
used as a precedent in the attempt to
prevent the seating of Nathan B. Scott
as United States senator from West
Virginia to succeed Senator Faulkner.
Scott was elected by the Republicans
by one ma JOrity. To secure this one
majority, the Republicans retained in
the legislature two members who served
in the volunteer army during the war
with Spain. Mr.. ScOtts election will no
doubt be contested, now that the house
committee on judiciary has esta blished
a precedent. In any event the action
will not affect General Wheeler'S seat
in the F'ifty-sixth congress, which he
will take on March 4. This was Mr..
BaiIey's idea from the first, it now ap-
pears, and he probably has succeeded
in eIecting a Democratic United States
senator from West Virginia

WOLVES KILLING CATTLE.
Indians Paid So for Each "Varmint'
They Slaughter.

Deadwood, s D. Feb. 6.-The agents
at the different Indian agencies between
the Black Hills and the Missouri river
are encoura ging the farmers to hunt
the wolves which are increasing in such
an alarming manner on the cattle
ranges.
This winter the animals seem to be
more ferocious than ever before, and
they are killing the young cattle at an
alarming rate. One rancher, who came
to Belle FOurche from the Slim Butte
range, reported having seen a large
mum Der of carcasses of cattle along the
trail which had been killed by wolves.
The Indian agents are paying s. for
every wolf brought in. One Indian spent
a week hunting on the Cheyenne and
he returned to the agency at Standing
Rock with a wagon load of wolves.
