Pennsylvania Justice Acted as Celebrant
at His Own Wedding.
Ira Carrie Of Kingston. Pa. is an old
time justice of the peace who takes a
somewhat liberal view of his own
E,agisterial powers. He is somewhat
advanced in years and some eleven
years ago, when three score and four
teen and a widower. felt the need Of
some tender spirit to share his trou-
bles and add to the enjoyments of his
existence. Casting about him, his eyes
fell upon a comely widow of Go, whom
he wooed with all the ardor of swain
Of one-tourth his years. He was not
long in winning her consent to a mar
riage, but, being of an economical
turn, he hesitated about paying the
fee that would be exacted by a clergy
man or a brother magistrate. He con-
suited his law library, consisting of the
revised statutes OF the keystone state,
and could not find therein any inter
diction Of a lawfully qualified Justice
of the peace performing the wedding
ceremony. His bride-elect was equally
oblivious of the proprieties and accord
ingly it was done. Now comes Mrs
Garlic into court and asks for a legal
separation from the squire on the
ground OF cruel treatment. Called
upon to testify, the aggrieved woman
said &c marriage ceremony was per-
formed by Squire earle himself, and
that there were no witnesses present.
She said the squire told her such a
marriage was all right under the laws
Of Pennsylvania and that there was no
ether ceremony. Some old letters were
shown to show that she had written to
him as his wife even before the strange
ceremony of of 1898. One was written
in 1892 to the squire in which she
signed herself his beloved wife. In
describing the marriage ceremony the
woman said he read from a Bible,
asked her if she would be his wife, and
she consented, believing the ceremony
valid. Now, the squire declares that
The ceremony was a farce, but the
court was of the opinion that it would
be good law. He refused to pass def
nitely upon the matter, however, and
the case will be taken to a higher
court.-Chicago Chronicle.

Rear-Admiral John w. Philip, COM
mandant of the Brooklyn navy yard,
has consented to take charge of the
fund to be raised among the sailors
and marines of the United States navy
for the purpose of having a silver
model made of the United States bat
tleship Maine. This model is to be
presented 60 Miss Helen Gould. The
model of the Maine will cost about
$4,000 Considerable money has al
ready been raised. The plan is to col
lect 10 cents from every sailor and ma
rine in the navy. AS there are about
$4,000 enlisted men, the amount is
practically INSURED.

The success of great invention
often depends upon some auxiliary
discovery to make it practicable. With
out the telegraph, modern railroading
would have been impossible. Without
the air-brake, the high speed of the
great express trains could not have
been permitted. To-day the electric
automobile, which is much heavier
than the steam-power carriage, would
be given a great impetus by the dis
covery of something better than the
present rubber tires. The great weight
and swift motion of the carriage upon
rough streets cause the tires TO wear
out rapidly. Which will come first, a
lighter electric storage battery or a
flrmer elastic substance for the tires?
The history of inventions suggests
that one or the other will appear at an
early date.

Bishop Whipple heard a person
abusing a man Of great wealth because
Of his supposed meanness. He an
swered the critic thus: 81 would not

The real reason behind the projected
ship canal through Nicaragua or the
isthmus of Panama, which is now en-
crossing so much attention, is the fact
that goods may be transported more
easily on the water than over the land.
Examples in everyday life emphasize
the difference. Two mules draw one
hundred tons of coal in a canal boat;
on land they would have difficulty in
Juggling three or four tons in a coal
cart. Hence, whatever the power used,
water-borne freights the world over
are cheap and land routes are dear.
This consideration greatly affects the
growth of cities and of nations. Pitts
burg coal and Lake Superior ores are
near together, because they can be
transported so great a part of the dis
lance by water 1t also largely ac-
counts for Americas prominence as a
great steel-producing country. Stove
coal is usually cheap in places to which
it can go by water, and high where it
must go by rail. The same is true Of
all bulky and heavy commodities.
Gen. Davis ordered Capt. William v.
Judson, United States engineers, to
make report on the best way to rid
the harbor of San Juan. Porto Rico,
of the two ships sunk there. The re-
port sent to Washington recommends
a $4,000 appropriation to clear the
channel. With the entrance rid of
both of these hulks, it will give fine,
wide entrance with water not less than
fifty feet deep and will permit all large
war vessels to anchor in the bay.
Range lights will be placed in the har-
Dor soon. so as to allow vessels to
enter at night instead of lying outside

Recently two French aeronauts left
Paris in their balloon at 6:15 o'clock
in the evening, and on the evening
of the following day, % hours and Is
minutes after their departure from
Paris, dropped safely down near
Vestervik in Sweden. They had
travelled $50 miles, their average speed
being nearly thirty-ive and one-half
miles per hour. At one time they
drifted over the Baltic sea, and the
fall in temperature and increased
humidity Immediately caused the bal
loon to drop.

1t is the browning honor Of the
Baroness Burdett-Coutts, who has just
celebrated her seth birthday. that the
world does not so much say how much
money she inherited, or how much she
is now worth, as how much she has
given away for the good of her fellows.
More than five million dollars is the
record Of her benefcence, and there
are few that surpass it.

Canon Edmonds, who spoke for the
foreign delegates at the farewell meet
ing of the Ecumenical Missionary con-
ference, said: You have got your
problems 70 solve in this nation, but
you will solve them" There has never
been moment since the foundation
OF our government when that feeling
has not been supreme in the hearts
of the American people No tempo
rary fear or depression has weakened
the nations purpose to fulfill its mis-
sion, nor eclipsed its faith in its abil-
ity TO do the things given it to do.

In 1866, Gen. Garfield, then in con-
gress, made a strong speech in sup
port of the measure which finally took
form in national bureau of educa-
ton. THE children Of today" said he,
will be the architects of our country
in 1900" The prophecy was easy to
make, because certain to be fulfilled.
Yet there is something impressive in
the fact that the affairs of church and
state, and all the complex interests
of civilization, are now largely in the
hands of those who thirty-four years
ago were passing into the public
schools. To them, too, is committed
the custody Of those who, in turn,
will make the history of the swift
coming future.

sophistries and skepticism about Jesus
Christ. He seems to be sleeping. They
say: 1--WE have captured the Lord. He
will never come forth again upon the
nation. Christ is overcome forever.
His religion will never make any con-
quest among men," But after awhile
the Lion of the tribe of Judah will
rouse himself and come forth to shake
nightly the nations. What's a spid-
er's web to the aroused lion? Give
truth and error a fair grapple, and
truth will come off victor.
Frightened by Revivals.
But there are q great many good
people who get affrighted in other re-
spects. They are affrighted about re-
vivals. They say, "Oh, this is a strong
religious gale! We are afraid the
church of God is going to be upset and
there are going to be a great many
people brought into the church that
are going to be of no use to it." And
they are affrighted whenever they see
a revival taking hold of the churches.
AS though ship captain, with 5000
bushels of wheat for a cargo, should
say some day, coming upon deck,
Throw overheard all the cargo! and
the sailors should say: why, captain.
what do you mean? Throw over all
the cargo?" oh" says the captain,
I'VE have a peck of chaff that has got
into this 5000 bushels of wheat, and
the only way to get rid OF the chlff
is to throw all the wheat overheard"
Now. that is a great deal wiser than
the talk Of many Christians who want
to throw overheard all the thousands
and tens of thousands of souls who
are the subjects of reyivals. Throw
all overheard because they are brought
into the kingdom of God through
great revivals, because there is peck
of chaff, a quart of chaff, a pint OF
chaff! | say, let them stay until the
last day. The Lord will divide the
chaff from the wheat.
There is one storm into which we
will all have to run. The moment
when we let go of this world and try
to take hold of the next, we will want
all the grace possible. Yonder | see
Christian soul rocking on the surges
of death. All the powers of darkness
seem let out against that soul-the
swirling wave, the thunder of the Sky,
the shrek of the wind, all seem to
unite together. But that soul is not
troubled. There is no signing there
are no tears; plenty of tears in the
room at the departure, but he weeps
no tears-calm, satisfied and peace
full; all is we'll. BY the flash OF the
storm you see the harbor just ahead,
and you are making for that harbor.
All shall be well, Jesus being our pi-
lot.
Into the harbor OF heaven now we
glide;
We're home at last, home at last.
Softly We drift on the bright, silv'ry
tide;
We're home at last.
Glory to God, all our dangers are DER;
We stand secure on the glorifed
shore,
Glory to God, we will shout everr2ore,
We're home at last"
