HOW PASTOR GOT HIS MONEY

Sarcasm Paid the Coal Bill When
Pleading Failed.
Money for any kind of collection is
rather difficult thing for the rectors
of a church to gather in sufficiently
large quantities to meet the existing
expenses, but a demand of money fol-
ed with the most disastrous financial
results. All the more Is this the inev.
table result when money Is asked for
the winters coal bill and winter is over
and spring at hand, and the bare men
ton Of coal and heat makes the unen.
and unheeding.
Such was the case the other Sunday
not so very long ago, in the interior OF
a large ecclesiastic edifice in Chicago
The congregation had been warned two
weeks in advance Of the time of the col
lection and the size of the bill and the
necessity of it's payment had been
dinned into their unwilling ears fol
several preceding church days. Finally
the appointed Sunday arrived and the
special baskets for the collection were
passed throughout the church, and
while there was an occasional jingle OF
silver coin, the persons who did not
contribute seemed in the familiar ratio
of sixteen to one who did.
The Sunday following the day Of the
collection the pastor mounted his pulpit
to announce the amount accumulated
by the uSherS. And this Is the way he
did it:
Brethren, the collection for coal
taken up last Sunday amounted to
$123, which averages about one-fourth
of cent for every person in the parish

The following incident in Lord VOL
seley's military career is recorded az
having taking place when he was in
his twenties, and had been in the Brit.
lsh army three years. He speaks of it
himself as the most exciting experience
of his life. 1t was in Burma, and
Wolseley was in charge of small de-
tachment. During the advance he had
the bad luck to fall into deep hole,
and when he crawled out found him
self on the enemy's side. As he
emerged he was met with such a show
er of bullets that he slid back in short
order. After a few minutes he came
out again. and, amid q vigorous volley,
ran for his life. He was nearly 800
yards from the British line. and was
hit three times before he reached a
place of safety.-Youth's Com panion.
