FRANCES E. WILLARD.

The following abstract of aspeech by
DIR. Bristol was prepared by Mrs. A.
E. Clark, President of the Belfast
W, c. r. U, and read before the Union
at the South intermediate School on
Frances Willard Day." Feb. 18th:
DIR. Bristol, pastor of the church in
Washington at which President Nc
Kinley is an attendant, was at one
time a pupil of Miss Willard. Previ-
Gus to the formal opening of the Ma
tional Convention Dr. Bristol took for
his Sunday evening subject, Life and
Influence of Frances E. Willard" DR..
Bristol said in part: Frances E. Will
lard was the gentle incarnation of
great moral reform. She, more than
any other person, was the inspiration
of modern temperance agitation. The
best phase of this reform is Christ and
Christian Womanhood against the
liquor habit and the liquor traffic.
During the last quarter of this century,
or since the organization of the Wo-
mems Christian Temperance Union,
more temperance sentiment has been
developed than in the past history of
the world. 1t is not too much to say
that for this our country owes to
Frances E. Willard more than to any
other soul or life its gratitude Her
mission was to bring a message of hope
to the broken hearted, to raise the
standard of purity, to rescue the slave
of drink, to lead woman to her throne
/ of power in the worlds moral struggle,
to turn the prayer of humanity upon
| this problem of temperance. and effect
an eternal alliance between the heart
Of W0manhO0d and the heart of Christ
for the redemption of the fallen. Her
| quence, We're all laid upon the altar Of
| humanity Nor in that conservation
| did the rare gifts of her fine and gentle
W0mauhood degenerate into coarSemesS.
| No false masculine note ever destroyed
| the charm OF her voice. No bitterness
ever destroyed the sweetness of her re
fined and sisterly persuasion. She was
an ideal woman and an ideal leader of
women. The temple Of fame Will not
be complete without the names OF Illus
trlouS women, and to many eyes and
many grateful hearts. tie brightest
name of all Will be the sWeetly familiar
name of Frances E. Willard.

TO EDUCATE YOUNG WRITERS.

certain educational reformers pro-
pose to take school children about the
country on tours of Sightseeing and
investigation, for the purpose of
stimulating their minds and awaken

that children taken on such tours de-

DOCTOR ASKS BIG FEE.
Bill of w. c. Browning Against the
Estate of Chris Magee Is
100000,

A doctor bill of 100000 was hand
ed in for collection at Pitts burgh the
other day.
The physician who puts this esti-
mate on his services is DR.. Walter G..
Browning, of Philadelphia. He at
tended the late State Senator Chris
L Magee for 21 months during his
last illness, and accompanied him to
various places. He has sent his bill
to the executors of Mr.. Magee's es-
tate.
The bill is understood to be item
lied; covers 21 months treatment,
and is charged at the rate of $50 per
treatment hour.
One charge is $4,000 for last sum.
mer's treatment at Atlantic City, and
another $4,000 for accompanying the
deceased to Hot Springs, Va.
The fee is believed to be one of
the largest of its kind ever charged
in Pennsylvania or the United States,
and has produced widespread com.
ment in professional circles.
The executors of the Magee estate
refuse to discuss DR.. Browning's bill
more than to acknowledge that the
charge of 100000 has been made. 1t
is learned from reliable sources, how
ever, that the bill will be contested.
The work of the executors of the es-
tate is reviewed by the county courts,
and it may be then that the physi-
clans charge can be taken sup. If
not, it is said by the senator's friends
that the bill will be contested if
DR.. Browning insists on demanding
the payment of the charge made in
his original bill.

STUDY OF THE THREE "Rs. !"
Editor of the Forum Declares His Re-

STOPS A CYCLING PRINCESS.
Windsor Park JnnitOr Checks the
Granddaughter of the Late
Queen.

Queen Victoria once prohibited bi-
cyclists and automobiles from using
the broad walk in Windsor park. and
This week her granddaughter,
Princess Victoria, who is staying at
Windsor castle, was stopped and
thrown off her bicycle by the janitor,
who failed to recognize her. The
princess, VINO is an ardent cyclist,
had Just returned from three weeks
tour in Wales and was riding with
her lady-in-waiting, Lady Musgrave.
Sergt. Green, the pensioner on duty,
called, to the ladies to stop. They
disregarded his order and he caught
the princess handlebars. She fell,
hurting her ankle.
Lady Musgrave explained who they
were. Green replied that he was
sorry. but his orders to prevent cy-
clists from using the walk were un-
qualified. The princess, who was in
much pain, said it was stupid of him
not TO recognize her A carriage was
sent for to take her back to the cas-
tie.
Next day Green received note
from the princess saying he was
quite right in fulfilling hls instruc-
tions and apologizing for her hasti-
ness in complaining, But she advised
him never to catch the handlebars,
as it destroyed the riders control
over machine.

PRIEST URGES MARRIAGE.
Trenton Pastor begins n War on
Single BIessedness Among the
Young People of His Parish.

Rev. Thaddeus Hogan, of st. Johns
Roman Catholic church in Trenton, is
anxious to have all members of his
church married. Father Hogan am
nounced to the congregation at mass
on a recent Sunday morning that he de-
sired all young single men to remain
in their seats after the service 1t was
then that he laid down. the rules of
life to the men and insisted on their
marrying early in life. He said that
a man earning ten dollars week
and upward could support wife. The
priest also directed his remarks to the
older members and said there was
no reason why they should remain
single.
Father Hogan few weeks ago
preached sermons of similar tenor
10 the single women and men of his
parish. He urged both sexes to pro-
mote the cause of matrimony. and
said that after reasonable time had
elapsed he would compel each single
man ana woman to rent a whole pew
III ms church as license fee for single
blessedness.
1t is evident that Father Hogan's
advice is meeting with a great deal of
success, for since the last lecture sew
eral engagements have been an
nounced.
Father Hogan's attention was nYst
called to the rarity of the celebration
OF the sacrament of matrimony in
ms church some time ago, when he
found men and maidens going outside
the parish to be joined in wedlock. He
found that his flock was going for
this purpose of St. Mary's in the up
per portion of the city; to the Church
OF the immaculate Conception, in the
extreme southeast, and to st. Joseph's,
IN the extreme east of the city, to be
married to members from other par
1shes than his own
Ihls led the priest to inaugurate
the home rule system and to express
the desire that his parishioners marry
at home, and let the other churches
take care of themselves.
