DR. MORGAN AS A GOLF PLAYER.

REQ. DR.. G. Campbell Morgan, the
noted Evangelist who recently conducted
a series of meetings In Baltimore City,
has been recuperating his lost strength
and strained nerves at the quiet, but
beautiful country home of DR.. Howard
A. Kelly, which lies near the suburbs Of
Bel Air. 1t will be remembered that DR..
Morgan has been selected as the successor
to the noted Evangelist, the late Dwight
L. Moody. While everyone knows that
he is probably one of the greatest preach
ers that the present age has produced,
they are not aware that he Is a ardent
golf player as well.
When he came to Bel Air he began to
explore the surrounding country and In
the course of his explorations made the
acquaintance of General Herman Stump,
who invited him to inspect "Waverly,"
farm, the pride of Mr.. Stump's heart.
One of the rural delights OF this place Is a
golf field which at once attracted the
noted Evangelist's attention.
The way the minister drove" was a
caution. He astonished the other play
.ers. They expected to see man of his
physique, make a weak showing, but
they were mistaken. The Doctor Is an
old player, but a little out of practice at
the present time. Among those who
played with DR.. Morgan were Mr.. Bert
ram N. Stump, nephew of General Stump
and Rev. r. Allen Castleman, Of Bel Air.
They say that the Divine puts up a
stiff game and he Is especially good at
driving. DR.. Morgan says he has played
over some fine links In his time, but he
had found none that interested him as
did those at this hospitable homestead.
He also enjoys running into difficulties
AMI bad kinks. No doubt his strenuous
experience as an Evangelist has imbued
him with the spirit, consequently he en-
joys the obstacles on the "Waverly"
links. The trees made it a hazard game
and Doctor Morgan lodged about
through them like an Indian. He had on
numerous occasions to resort to his
"lofter" which he did with dexterity.

DID NOT SPEAK WITH KNowLEDaE.-
On clear and beautiful Sunday
morning in a parish not far from Mil
waukee, a priest was pleased to note
the presence at service Of an unusual
ly large number Of the male members
of his congregation, and, since he had
been informed Of considerable trouble
in his flock, he considered it an oppor-
tune time to give those present a
friendly, yet pointed, sermon on for
bearance. He charged the men, par
ticularly the married men, to be ever
kind, courteous and considerate to wo-
men, to overlook all opportunities for
trouble, to be good to them and solic-
itious Of their welfare, and finished
with a mastery peroration relating to
connubial decency on the part Of hus-
bands.
Shortly after he met an old and re-
spected member of the church and
said:
Michael, I was glad to see you at
church Sunday. And how did you
like the sermon?"
"Well, father" the old man answer
ed, the language was beautchiful, and
the delivery was foine; but, be jabbers.

WHAT DOUGLAS GAZE YIELDED.-lr
the presidential campaign of 1856 the
Democrats in the west made an effec'
tive point by contrasting Mr.. Buchan'
ans long public career as a senator
secretary of state. and minister tc
England with General Fremont's linn
tied experience, consisting of service
of q days in the United States SEN
ate.
In the great campaign Of 1860 they
tried the same tactics, which had
proved so successful, to disparage Mr.
Lincoln. He had served but a single
term in congress, while Senator Doug
las had for many years enjoyed ma
tional reputation.
This point was urged in a heated
discussion, overheard, between an ar
dent supporter of Senator Douglas and
a German voter, who favored Mr.. Lin
coin. The former finally thought to
overwhelm his opponent by saying:
"Who is this Lincoln anyhow? No
body ever heard Of him until Senator
Douglas brought him into notice by
holding joint debates with him. Sena-
tor Douglas, on the other hand, is a
great statesman. Why, he has had his
eye on the presidential chair for the
last ten years."
"Vot is dot you say?" was the reply.
"You say Meester Dooglas have had
his eye on the presidential chair for
the last ten years?"
Yes, that is just what said"
"Vell, you shoost tell Meester Doug
