"Curbstone religion" as exemplified
by the Salvation Army, has recently
observed its twentieth anniversary in
America. In a marked degree this or
ganization has carried out the theory
of practical application. A Salvation
Army lass will go into any home where
her services are needed and do the
next thing" One of them recently
carried a hut child into its tenement
home. Staying to help the mother, she
offered to cook dinner. When the hun
CRY man of the family returned to en-
JOY the novelty of a carefully prepared
meal, he announced his approval by
saying to his wife: IF that's the kind
of thing you learn at church, you may
go to meeting all you want" a per-
mission hitherto persistently refused.

Now that the name of d Michigan
town has been changed to "Cronje"
1t becomes really imperative that Am
orleans should begin to practice on the
correct pronunciation OF the word.

A little boy in Ohio, cast adrift on
the world by the sudden death of
father and mother, was found by the
wayside praying for protection from
the hardships seemingly imposed upon
his youth. The gentleman who thus
discovered him, millionaire brewer,
took him home and installed him as
one of his own. Though not a church
goer, he figured that there could not
be much bad in a boy who would thus
show his faith in Providence and final
ly he became convinced himself that
he was simply an instrument Of Provi-
dence used in answer to a child's faith.
He lately sold out his business and
is now devoting his life and fortune
to the rescue of other orphaned ones.
Little occurrences of this nature do
not find much space for recital in the
newspapers, but whenever they do get
into print they present a convincing
argument that the world is not so bad
as might be judged from reading an
issue of one of our metropolitan pa
pers. II newspapers would give pref
erence to the good deeds of mankind
there would be little room left for
criminal and stock gambling reports.

The tenement house committee of
the Good Government clubs, having
effected great Improvements in the
housing Of the New York poor, now
presents some figures which must ap-
peal even to the greediest of capital
lists. Buildings erected on sanitary
principles, with plenty of light and
air, water, heating facilities and other
conveniences, are paying dividends of
from twelve to fifteen per cent, while
the squalid and unhealthy dwellings
beside them can hardly be forced to
yield five and six per cent. In one
tenement house the average rent of
rooms is eighty-five cents a week,
and the room has at least one window
with clear sunlight. For every tenant
there is running water and steam heat,
together with free bath and laundry
privileges in the basement. This
building has never paid less than 10
per cent, while the dilapidated and UNI
comfortable houses which adjoin it
pay only z per cent. Here is some
thing for the landlords to think about.

The so-called "Spooner BILL" which
has been reported to the senate by the
committee on the Philippines, is a pro-
visional measure which puts the ad-
ministration of the islands wholly in
the hands of the president until fur
Their action by congress. The authori-
ty conveyed is practically the same as
that under which She president has
administered affairs in Hawaii, and the
bill Is closely modelled upon the act of
1903, which gave President Jefferson
temporary authority over the territory
included In the Louisiana purchase.

Looking around the churches this
morning seeing flowers in wreaths and
flowers in stars and flowers in crosses
and flowers in crowns, pillows of
beauty, confagration of beauty, you
feel as If you stood in a small heaven.
You say these flowers will fade. Yes,
but perhaps you may see them again.
They may be immortal. The fra
GRANGE of the flower may be the spirit
of the flower; the body of the flower
dying on earth, its spirit may appear
in better worlds. l do not say it will
be so. say it may be so. The an

by the name of Joseph. He belonged
to the court of seventy, who had con-

had absented himself when the vote
was to be taken. At great expense he
laid out the garden. 1t being hot eli

Most Celebrated of Tombs.


Wandering in the garden. behold
some rocks which have on them the
mark of the sculptor's chisel. / come
nearer, and find there is a subterra-
mean recess. l come down the marble
steps, and come to a portico, over
which there is an architrave, by the
chisel cut into representatives of
fruits and flowers. / enter the por-
tico. On either side there are rooms
two or four or six rooms of rock,
the walls of these rooms having
inches, every niche large enough to
hold a dead body. Here is one room
that is especially wealthy of sculp-
ture.
The fact is that Joseph realizes he
cannot always walk this garden, and
he has provided this place for his last
slumber. Oh. what a beautiful spot
in which to wait for the coming of the
resurrection! Mark well this tomb,
for it is to be the most celebrated tomb
in all the ages. Catacombs of Egypt,
tomb of Napoleon, Mahal Tai of India,
nothing compared with it. Christ has
just been murdered, and his body will
be thrown to the dogs and the ravens,
like other crucifed bodies, unless there
be prompt and efficient hindrance.
Joseph, the owner of this mausoleum
in the rocks, begs for the body of
Christ. He washes the poor, mutilated
frame from the dust and blood ,shrouds
it and perfumes it.
| think that regular embalmment
was omitted. When in olden time a
body was to be embalmed, the priest,
with some pretension of medical skill,
would point out the place between the
ribs where the incislon must be made;
and then the operator, having made
the incision. ran lest he be slain for a
violation of the dead. Then the other
priests would come with salt of inter
and cassia and wine of palm tree and
complete the embalmment. But l
think this embalmment of the body of
Christ was omitted. 1t would have
raised another contention and another
riot.
The funeral hastens on. Present, l
think, Joseph, the owner of the mauso-
leum; Nicodemus, the wealthy man
who had brought the spices, and the
two Marys. No organ dirge. no
plumes, no catafalque. Heavy bur
den fer two men as they carry Christ's
body down the marble stairs and into
the portico and lift the dead weight to
the level of the niche in the rock and
push the body of Christ into the only
pleasant resting place il ever had.
Coming forth from the portico, they
close the door of rock against the re-
cess.

A Celebrated Case,

The next attraction at the
Opera House will be on Satur-
day evening in the presenta-
tion of Lloyd & Gays powerful
French Military drama, "a
Celebrated Case" The COM
pany is. a splendid one COM
posed of such recognized
artists as William Lloyd, Chas.
Gay and Emma Muncy, who
are supported by no less worthy
artists, and of a recent per-
formance the Minneapolis Trib-
une says:
az Celebrated Case" which
has not been given in Mime
apolis for some years, was last
night presented at the Lyceum
theater, to fair sized audience.
The play itself is built on time
respected lines, and has been
very popular. Being French,
and of high life in the main. it
possesses difficulties which are
suited to the mature judgment
of those who have had a long
experience with the stage.
There is strong heart interest
in the drama, and this was
brought out by the company
of players. The prologue
opened the play rather in
auspiciously. 1t is not good at
best, Miss Emma Muncy and
the theft, Lazare, acted by
William Lloyd, redeemed it by
their tragic scene.

Sensation at Galveston.

At his concert last winter at

played his Ballade of Last
Island, a composition whic.,
was suggested by the descrip-
ton of the destruction of Last
Island, a famous watering place
III the Gulf of Mexico, written
by Lafcadio Hearn for Earper's
magazine, and entitled "C!1ita,
or the Legend of Last Island.
At the close of Nlr. Perry's
performance, quite a sensation
was created by a member of the
audience rushing up onto the
stage in great excitement and
insisting upon showing Mr..
Perry gold repeater. with the
names of several victims of the
disaster whom he had rescued
engraved upon it. This person
announced that he had been
cruising in the Gulf, but was
safe i'll harbor at the time of
the cyclone, and went out with
his yacht the morning after the
catastrophe, and picked up
several unfortunates who had
been staying at the summer
hotel on the island, and who
had survived the night by
clinging to floating doors.
tables, and the like. In graft
tude for their preservation,
they presented him with the
repeater. He was vastly sur
prised and delighted that his
own adventure had found a
setting in literature and music,
and the incident gave quite a
realistic touch to that number
of the program. MIR. Perry will
