q. In the town Of Darien, Ga, there
Is but one building that stood there
before the war, and that building is
"a Methodist church, = = observed ID a
promminen IN Georgian to the Washing
ton Star, 1.and like many other
churches, it has an interesting history.
Darien specially suffered during Gen.,
5Sherman's march to the sea, every
building 'lli ii the town being completely
destroyed by fire except this particular
building. EdrL Among the buildings des-
troyed there were several churches.
When WI. the church was originally built
the question came up OF putting a
lightning rod on it. There was a de-
cided objection to lightning rod by
some Of the members Of the church.
One particular member was very out
spoken against a lightning rod or
anything else in defiance of the will
of Providence He argued that if the
Lord wanted to destroy the property
He had a perfect right to do so, for
it was essentially the Lords property.
All the other churches in the town,
however, We're protected by lightning
rods. The church was built in 1856.
From it's position on the lightning rod
question the church became famous
as the only church in Georgia that
was protected by the Lord It was
for years, and, indeed, is today, y
drawing card for Darien, and has
drawn more people to that town than
any other thing or incident connected
with it. if not more than all things
else combined. When Sherman's army
had orders to burn the town they
started at the west end of it for the
wind coming from that quarter help
ed along the work. The army spared
nothing, the orders being to destroy
everything. It may have been that the
church that is protected by the Lord
was fired the same as any other build
ing, but the j fact is that when the
army left there the next morning this
Methodist church was left standing
Sunscorched even, though the four.
buildings nearest to it, one of them a
church; too, were on the level with; the

Lots Of buildings in Darien have
been struck by lightning, which is
very severe at times all along the
south Atlantic coast, but this church
has never been unfavorably affected,
though it is today the only church or
other large building there that does
not have a lightning rod

voted to the church, who thinks Of the
poor. on Thanksgiv living day and Christ

unaffected, whose dress is elegant in

whom children love and day laborers
greet by reYerently IL lifting the hat, and.
who if e ss were adnated from a
home seminary sor college, would res,
ceive q bouquet from every boy In

woman, and nearly every community
has one (and 80 times out Of 100 she
is poor), you have fair idea of the i'm
preston made on plain man from a
country town in Indiana by Miss Gould.
Helen Miller Gould is just at the
threshold of her beautiful career. What
a promise is there in her life and work
for the coming century,! She has
pledged her fortune for Hall Of Fame
on the campus Of the New York uni
versity, overlooking the Harlem river.

distinguished Americans, and proud
will be the descendants Of those whose

Margaret Of Italy, in spite OF, her
mountain climbing, is the heaviest.
She is said to turn the scale at It's
pounds, although she looks Il much
slighter. The queen Of Spain weighs
147 pounds; the queen of the Neither
lands takes fourth place with 14o
pounds, being a. few pounds heavier
than the queen of the Belgians. The
German empress has reduced her
weight, which was an. anxiety to her
to ,l34 pounds, and the czarina, at 1875
pounds, is the lightest OF ALL. The

Among the representatives Of the
celestial kingdom in this city are Lee
Way and his cousin. All Foon, says
the Ogdensburg Journal They are
bright and intelligent, and are inter-
esting characters. OF their earlier life
in China they give very lucid accounts.
Lee Way has been in the United
States about twenty years, first locat-
ing in New York city. In his native
country he has a wife and son, and
he has made frequent visits to them
since he first came to America. Lee
received instruction in English before
ne crossed the Pacific, and he also at
tended school in New York. Both he
and his cousin receive weekly instruc-
tions at the hands Of teachers Of the
Baptist Sunday school, and Lee espe-
cially has become proficient in his use
Of the English language All Foon has
been in America only a few years, and
has resided in 0gdensburg about a
year. He is married, and his wife was
left behind in his native land. Before
coming to America All Foon was in
school until he was 16, with English
tutors, but his knowledge of the Ian
guage is meager. Until few years
ago there were no woman teachers in
all China. Now there, are many. and
students are received until past the
age of IS. There are many native
teachers. as well as the missionaries,
who come from foreign lands. The
scholars sit on high stools at desks
and study aloud. At 10 and II years
years the Chinese scholars can read
and write very we'll. Every lesson is
learned by rote.a The teacher always
retains possession of furnishing stick,
and occasionally lazy or tardy scholars
receive few sound raps with it. The
scholars are at school early in the
boys to study ten hours a day.. That
would seem a long time for American
boys to- devote to study in a single
day, but, according to All Foon, the
juvenile Chinaman never grumbles at
the long hours, and he and his COM
sing out their lessons all at the same
time as loudly as they can. Vacation
is always during the rice harvesting
season. Then the boys fly kites and
enjoy many other pastimes which are
similar to those seen in America, such
as walking on stills, playing hide and
seek. blind mans bluff and leap frog.

are no bad boys like here. u boys

ers and students of tho century. Mrs

herit their love Of research. Mrs.
Lewis and her sister have made many
trips to the Holy Land and have added
much in the way of priceless manu-
scripts discovered and copied by them,
in the history of the early church.
Mrs. Lewis writings and original re-
searches in ancient Syrian manuscripts
have won a world wide reputation for
her. b Her latest discovery is the Sy-a
riac Palimpsest, which gives to Biblical
literature the Syriac gospels Of date
not later than the fifth century Schol-
ars concede this to be the most ancient
copy of the scriptural writings extant.
"a famous old German university has
seen fit to honor Mrs. Lewis with the
degree Of doctor of philosophy, honora
causa, and this is something to cause
remark, for conservative old Halle has
only honored one other woman in its
whole history. In comforting the de-
gree it is said, it is in token t.of the
high esteem in which the authorities
held her learning and splendid scien-
tif1c attachments. !" & The faculty gives
the following four specific reasons for

Royal Widows.

Queen Margherita constitutes a very
notable addition to the extraordinar-
lily long list Eof royal and imperial
widows, says a correspondent. In fact,
it may be asserted that there is hardly
court in Europe where widows
weeds do not form conspicuous fea-
ture, destined in a way to remind its
members that above all the brilliancy,
the pomp and grandeur which Scharae-
terizes it, there hoYers always the
shadow Of death. In Russia we find the
widow of Emperor Alexander III play
ing an important political role, while
the NOR ganatic widow Of the murdered
Alexander H., Princess Yourieffska,
lives in exile abroad. In Germany
there is the widow Of Emperor Fred
erick, whose political influence has be-
come impaired by falling health, and
who, indeed, is reported to be critically
iii with Bright's disease. Spain is wise
