there is a magic lantern in the loft.
which throws pictures on the screen
stretched across the middle aisle.
These pictures illustrate the text of the
machine sermon. A skilled pianist
presldes at the grand piano, a numer-
Gus str1nged orchestra ranged before
the altar performs pieces of music
that are known in every household. the
pass drum booms and echoes through
the venerable pile, and an earnest
preacher tells his congregation some
plain home truths-no subtle, theo-
logical hair-splitting, no didactics. but
straight rhetorical blows from the
shoulder.
1t is novel method of bringing the
people to church, but it has succeeded,
for the congregation, numbering once
barely dozen, is now over 500. At
midday the workmen, in their toll
stained clothes, spend part of their
dinner interval listening to the "mon-

lantern pictures, and the Sunday con-

self proud in the matter of mineral
production, originated the first oil
we'll that ever spouted in the world.
SO far as history has any record of the
production of oil. 1t was sunk in the
outskirts of Titusville, in 1859, by
Colonel Drake, to whom the state
many years later erected a monu-
ment.
The first well was not great gush-
er, but as oil was then selling for about
$l4 barrel, gushers were not neces-
sary to produce a fortune in a few
weeks. The methods of production
were as crude as the oil, the old-fash-
Toned well sweep being used to bring
the oil to the surface. There was no
casing then, as now, and no shooting
of wells in the up-to-date way now
employed.

Fifteen health department doctors In

policemen invaded the negro colony in

day night and vaccinated about 800
negroes. says the New York Sun. The
vaccination was decided ON following
reports that much illness existed
among the negro population. In order
to get all the inhabitants together it
was decided to do the work at night
and to surround the negro block which
extends from Marcy avenue to Har-
rison avenue. Acting Captain Hays OF
the Clymer street station was informed
of the contemplated invasion and he
got together all the policemen he could
spare. Shortly before 10 o'clock the
men went to the colony by different
routes and surrounded the block So
neatly was the invasion planned that
none of the negroes knew what was
coming until they were told to bare
their arms Then fifty odd of them

Perhaps the cleverest scheme ever
put together for evading custom house
duties and practically smuggling goods
into the country has been brought to
light by the death of an old French
man In Indiana. When he came here
he was one of the poorest In the coun-
try, and when he died he was one of
the wealthiest. His name was Pierre
J. D'Heur. and he laid the foundation
OF his fortune In this way: He had a
friend in great glove factory In
France, and had him send thousands
OF pairs of the best gloves In two con-
signments, one to New Orleans and
one to New York. When the New Or
leans consignment was opened It was
found to contain only left hand gloves.
and D'Heur refused 1t. Later the
consignment was put up at auction and
.DHeur bought 1t for mere nothing.
Then came the New York consignment
which, oddly enough, contained only
right hand gloves. which were also
refused by D'Heur on account of the
mistake" and also afterward bought
by him at public auction. thus escap-
ing the payment of any duty.
