SPECIAL MAIL TRAIN.
An Effort to Catch the Southampton
Mail Steamer at New York Sat-
urday Morning.

Chicago, Sept. GA carload of the
most important mail that has left
Australia in years is being rushed
across the continent with the utmost
speed to catch the Southampton mail
steamer at New York at 10 o'clock
Saturday morning. The mail would
be due to arrive by regular train
service at $50 o'clock Friday morn
ing, one hour late for the morning
train over the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern. In the effort to make that
connection a special from Omaha
sped toward Chicago Friday night
with the right of way over every
other train on the road. In case of
failure to connect here a special will
be sent out to overtake the regular
train at Cleveland. To overcome the
advantage of one hour, it will have to
average better than one mile a min
ute from here to Cleveland.

answer him.
She finished her work in a serious
mood, and in the evening in the little
room over the kitchen she at first sat
down to meditat~ as her custom some
times was. But, suddenly changing
her mind, she opened her Bible to seek
out another of the passages that re-
ferred to the servant or to service, and

to locate verse that she thought was
in Thessalonians, she found the pass
age in Ephesians, sixth chapter, fifth
verse.
Servants, be obedient unto them
that according to the flesh are your
masters, with fear and trembling, in
singleness of your heart, as unto
Christ; not IN the way of eye-service
as men pleasers; but as servants of
Christ, doing the will of God from
the heart; with good will doing serv-
ice, as unto the Lord and not unto
men; knowing that whatsoever good
thing each one doeth, the same shall
he receive again from the Lord, wheth-
er he be bond or free. And We, mas
tiers, do the same things unto them,
and forbear threatening; knowing
that both their Master and yours is
in Heaven, and there is no respect Of

mean" Barbara thought. "'And We,

BISMARCK AND sCHLoEzER.
Chancellor and Became Minis
ter to the United States.

f. Max Muller tells a story in his
Autobiography, published by the
Scribners, that has a special interest
for Americans. 1t is about Karl de
Schloezer, whom he met at Paris and
who afterward was minister to the
United States.
HE entered the Prussian diplomat
ic SERVICE" writes Prof. Muller, land
was the protege of the princess of
Prussia, afterward the empress OF
Germany. That was enough to make
Bismarck dislike him, and when
Schloezer served as secretary of lega-
ton under Bismarck as ambassador
at st. Petersburg, he committed the
outrage of challenging his chief to
duel. Bismarck declined, nor woald
it, according to diplomatic etiquette,
have been possible for him not to de-
cline.
Later on, however, Schloezer was
placed en- disponibilite, that is to say,
he was politely dismissed. He had to
pay kind of farewell visit to Bis
marck, who was then onnipotent.
Being asked by Bismarck what he In
tended to do, and whether he could be
of any service to him, Schloezer said
very quietly: Yes, your excellency.
1 shall take to writing my memoirs,
and you know that 1 have seen much
in my time which many people viii be
interested to learn
Bismarck was quiet for a time,
looking at some papers, and then re-
marked, quite unconcernedly:
"'You would not care to go to the
United States as minister?
"T am ready to go tomorrow re-
piled Schloezer, and having carried
his point, having in fact outwitted
Bismarck, he started at once for
Washington.
Bismarck knew that Schloezer could
WELD a sharp pen, and there was a
time when he was sensitive to such
pen-pricks. They did not see much Of
each other afterward, but, owing tc
the protection of the empress,
Schloezer was later accredited as
Prussian envoy to the pope, and died
too soon for his friends ia beautiful
Italy.

A STRANGE CASE.
Demented Musician Receivers Her
Reason After Hearing Popular
Airs Rendered By Another.

Denver, Sept. 6.-Miss Elizabeth
Damme, the demented musician, who.
prior to her loss of reason, acquired
fame on two continents, is on the
road to recovery in the Arapahoe
county hospital through the chance
visit of a musician, who, in an adj
joining room, rendered several airs
from "The Bohemian Girl" from
that time dated her recovery, and
Thursday the talented young German
cellist rendered the entire opera on
her favorite instrument. The doc
tors are giving her case close
scrutiny, as they can not understand
why, after a years incarceration,
the spark of reason should be re-
kindled in such strange manner.

CHANCES REGARDED AS EVEN
The Selection of the Columbia to
Defend Americas Cup PIeases
the British Press.

New York, Sept. 5.-The World
says: From private sources it is
learned that the Columbia was chosen
to defend the Americas cup, and in
consequence of this decision there
will be no race Thursday.
London, Sept. 6.-The selection of
the Columbia to defend the Americas
cup is matter of great satisfaction
to the British press. The chances
of the race are now regarded as even;
but there is no disposition to express
overconfdence in the result. 1t is
generally conceded that the Consti-
tuition might still have proved the
faster boat had there been sufficient
time for further experiments and

ILLEGAL MARRIAGES.
Fourteen SOIemnized in English
Churches Found to Be Void
on Trivial Grounds.

It viii come as a disagreeable shock
to any surviving couples who were
married in st. Johns old church,
Sleighs, in 1928, to learn that their
marriages were not legal, says the
London Daily Mail.
Such, however, is the startling fact,
and the remark applies not only to
this church but to 13 others, in alla
of which marriages have taken place,
although they were not licensed for
the purpose.
In order to legalize these unions,
Lord Belper has brought forward a
bill in parliament.
The chapelry of Ugglebarnby, in the
York diocese, possesses three of these
churches, two of which may be
called the patriarchs of illegal
marriages. The church of the
Ancient Chapelry of Ugglebarnby
has had no license since the date of it's
conservation. It's fellow-patriarch, St.
Johns old church, also in the chapelry,
has had no license since 1927. The
other of the trio is st. Johns new
church, in which illegal marriages
have only been performed since 1895.
At ey-cum-HOwsham, marriages
have been illegally performed in two
places-the parish room of Cadney
and the chapel of Howsham.
In the case of the parish church of
Llansaintffraid Cwmtoyddwr, of Cwm-
dauddwr, in the diocese of Radnor, it
has been ironically suggested that it
was deprived of its license in 1865 be-
cause a marriage certificate bearing
the name of the church would have
been too unwieldy.
The number of marriages which have
taken place in the IA churches cannot
easily be discovered, but some idea of
the number may be gathered from the
fact that at ST. Andrews church, Dali
tOn-leDale, between 300 and 400 have
been sOlemnized
The other churches are New Bas-Y
ford church; Christ church, Bradford;
church of the new parish of the Lodge,
Salop; ST. Helen's church, Ore; ST. Sa-
viour's Ringiey; st. Johns, Ipswich;
st. Peters, Woodmansey.
In addition to these, the church OF
st. Mary, Greenhithe, has been used
as the parish church of the residents
of the two training ships lying off
Greenhithe. Before October II, 1899,
these residents did not belong 10 the
parish. The banns published and mar
riages solemnized before that date are
legalized by Lord Belper's bill.
Clause three of the bill freely for
gives all'the ministers concerned, and
absolves them from any penalties in

Fall Planting Trees.

on the question of whether il is better
to plant fruit trees in the fan or spring
Professor f. A. Waugh of the Vermont
Experiment Station says that one time
is just as good as the other providing the
soil is i'm good condition and the trees are
all right.
There are some advantages to setting
trees in the fall, the principal one being
that there is commonly more time for it
at that season. There is always a rush
of work in the spring, but at this time
of the year farm operations are less
pressing. Sometimes also the trees can
he had in better condition in the fan.
Usually the prices are slightly lower for
nursery stock, Furthermore when fall
planting is really successful the trees are
apt to do better than when spring planted.
They become esta blished to some extent
during the winter and are all ready to
start with the first growing weather in
spring.
The chief requirement for fall plant
ing is good soil in a state of high cult
walton. Raw, lumpy soddy soil will not
answer. Positions in which water stands
will not do for fall planting In fact
trees should never be set in such places.)
Where the soil is not light and well
drained 1t is liable to freeze and heave,
thus doing much injury to young trees.
But If the soil is right and the trees
are right, and the man is ready to plant,
fall setting of fruit trees is nearly al
ways advisable.
