His NeiGhbOrs.

Ex-Attorney General Miller recently
told this story, which is thoroughly en-
joyed by the narrator:
when President Harrison invited
me to become a member of his cabi-
net" he said, 81 determined to visit my
boyhood home in Indiana before going
to Washington. l had not been in the
town for twenty years. At the railroad
station l was met by the village hack
man, who knew me when 1 was boy.
He greeted me as if 1 had left the town
only the day before. On the way to
the hotel in his ramshackle deep sea
going hack | said:
"'Well, William. what has happened
since / have been hereT
'Nothin',' he replied.
William l continued, I've been
chosen q member Of the presidents
cabinet. What do the neighbors say to
that?
.Nothin',' he answered. They just
laugh"

waiting for the end of the strife. One
day messenger in great excitement
ran among the tents Of the army shout
ing, Peace! Peacer The sentinel on
guard asked. "Who says 'peace?" And
the sick soldier turned on his hospital
mattress and asked, "Who says
'peace?" And all UP and down the en-
campment of the Russians went the
question, "Who says 'peace|" Then
the messenger responded, ''The car
says peace That was enough. That
meant going home. That meant the
war was over. No more wounds and no
more long marches. So today, as one of
the Lords messengers, l move through
these great encampments Of souls and
cry: peace between earth and heaven!
Peace between God and man! Peace

PURE AIR I'm CHURCHES.
A Plea For the Proper Ventilation
of the Buildings.

Plea For the Proper Ventilation
of the Buildings.
Considering the extent to which the
benefits of fresh air have been exploit
ed of recent years in connection par
ticularly with the cure of phthisis, IL
might naturally be expected that In
public places a state of affairs would
not now be tolerated which is contrary
to the recommendations of medical au-
thority. We are all perfectly aware of
the necessity for free ventilation. We
understand why indiscriminate splitting
is an abominable danger and how close
rooms and stuffy omnibuses and over
filed railway carriages increase the
chances Of infection even for healthy
persons. Moreover, we know that in
the presence of an infected person, az
where one member of the family is the
subject of pulmonary tuberculosis,
constant supply of pure air in plenty is
a paramount necessity for the health
Of those who are bound to live under
the same roof as the sufferer.
So much, then, being matter of COM
mon knowledge, it is little short OF
marvellous to see in what kind of at
mosphere this enlightened public Is
content to confine itself at certain
times. A visit to the courts of law or
to the churches of every denomination
might we'll lead to belief that to these
places resorted a class of beings for
whom fresh mir was n dangerous thing
to be carefully excluded and that only
in q thick carbOniferouS, Organically
tainted atmosphere could the brain of
man discern truth through the mazes
of legal bewilderment or his soul re-
spond to the solemn claims of a reli-
gious service.
There can be no greater mistake than
to neglect the conditions of atmos-
phere in which mental labors, be they
legal or of any other kind, are under
taken. The WEAKNESS. the headache,
the Indifference to food or inability to
assimilate it, that are apt to follow
day in the courts or a few hours in
church are often the result of foul at
mosphere The theater and the church,
viewed from low but practical stand
point, have much in common. In mat
tiers of ventilation, however, the mod
ern theater has advanced in a way
which religious communities might i'm
itate with advantage. There can be
nothing unhOly in pure atmosphere.
The first clergyman who devotes
collection" TO the construction of eff
cient ventilation for his church will de-
serve we'll of his congregation and will
most assurediy take an effective step
toward increasing its members.-Lan-

Couldock's company was once barn
storming through Virginia. 1t was at
Petersburg, and the play was "The
IChimney Corner" All through the au-
dience sat in distressing silence, neither
laughing nor shedding tear, although
"The Chimney Corner" abounds with
humor and pathos and the company
then producing it was of great merit
for those times. Couldock appeared to
pay no attention to the apathy of his
audience until just at the close of the
performance. The concluding lines OF
the play are somewhat to this effect:
"You, John, are happy, and so are you,
Ellen; so am 1, and so are we all. Let
US hope that our friends the public
share our happiness"
But, to the surprise of everybody,
Couldock fell into a towering passion
when he reached these lines, and in
laundering tones he said, you, John,
are happy, and so are you, Ellen; SO
am 1, and so are we all except the fools
that have been sitting like stoughton
bottles in front of the footlights to-

Romance of the COrinthian Column.
In the winter a young girl had died
In Corinth. Some time afterward her
maid gathered together various trim
kets and playthings which the girl had
loved and brought them to the girls
grave. There she placed them in a
basket near the monument and put
q large square tile upon the basket to
prevent the wind from overturning 1t.
1t happened that under the basket was
a root of an acanthus plant. When
spring came, the acanthus sprouted,
but it's shoots were not able to pierce
the basket, and accordingly they grew
around 1t, having the basket in their
midst. Such of the long leaves as
grew up against the four protruding
corners of the tile on the top Of the
basket curled round under these cor
ners and formed pretty volutes.
Kallimachos, the sculptor, walking
that way one day, saw this and i'm
mediately conceived the notion that the
form of the basket with the plaque
on top of it and surrounded by the
leaves and stalks of acanthus would
be a comedy heading for columns in ar
chitecture. He from this idea formed
the beautiful Corinthian style of capt.
Ital. Such, at least, is the story as the
ARCHITECT Vitruvius told it 1900 years
ago.

A well known Scotch "meenister"
took up golf and despite great practice
could not succeed in passing the tyro
stage. His simple EXPLANATIONS of
"Tut, tutp' "Oh, dear, noww well,

dences of perturbed spirit.
One day, when the perspiration flow
ed freely from his lofty brow and his
honest countenance shone with lus-
ter and radiance which, alas, were not
due to calmness of soul, but rather the
heat of the sun and his laborious eff
forts to move the obstinate gutta
percha from it's station on the tee, he
was tempted to indulge in strong Ian
guage. "Dear, dear, but I'll have to
gle it up! I'll have to gle it upg' he
said at last, with a despairing look at
the ball.

ed his friend, who had been a witness
of his attempts.

SURPRISE and sorrow were expressed in
all parts of the state the morning after
Christmas at the announcement of the
death of George B. Swain, Treasurer of
the state of New Jersey. Mr.. Swain was
seized with apoplexy early in the morn
ing and died in the afternoon. The news
of his death was great surprise as he
had been in good health, attending to his
duties every day. Mr. Swain was Jer-
seyman, residing nearly his entire life in
the city of Newark. Growing up with
the city he became identified with many
of its enterprises and interests and was
a valuable citizen, whose advice was
sought on many points. He was an
earnest Republican and in 1894 was elect
ed State Treasurer, position he filled to
the satisfaction of all. He was safe adj
wiser and staunch friend, and he will be
sorelY missed by all who have had the
fortune to enjoy his acquaintance.

SPEAKING Of the choice Of a President

SPEAKING of the choice of President OF
the Senate, the Newark Nea0s says:
THE Republican State Senators, in eau
Gus at Trenton last night, chose G. Asa
Francis, Senator from Monmouth County,
to preside over the Senate at it's coming
session. Incidentally this means that in
the opinion of majority of the Senators
Mr.. Francis is the one man in the Senate
best qualified to succeed Governor elect
Murphy, should any unforeseen happening
prevent the latter from serving out his
first year in office. May kind Provi
dence avert the possibility of such ca
lamity
''The Neaos has not hesitated to oppose
the election of Senator Francis to the
Presidency of the Senate, and has nc
apologies to offer for it's opposition. Il
believed his selection to be conspicuously
unfit, not only because of his past record
as Senator and a politician, but because
of the men with whom he is most intim
ately associated and the character of the
influences that have been most persistent
in his behalf. If the future shall prove
that its apprehensions were unfounde6
the Meas will be most agreeably disap
pointed"

WILLIAM J. SEwELL died on
Friday. The end, which has been ex-
pected for long time, came quietly, the
sufferer having been unconscious for some
time. New Jersey has lost a valuable
man. He was born in Ireland in 1885,
and came to this country at an early age.
When he was 25 years old the civil war
broke out and the young man was one of
the first to enlist in the service of his
adopted country. He advanced rapidly,
being made brevet Brigadier General in
1866. On his return from the army he Sc
cured position with the Camden and
Amboy railroad company. His executive
ability made him valuable and when the
Pennsylvania company leased the roads
they were not long in recognizing and APP
preciating the ability of the man, and he
was given many responsible trusts. In
1872 he entered into politics, being sent to
the state senate from Camden county, and
from that Office he stepped to the United
States Senate, in which body he held a
seat at the time of his death. He was not
an old man, not having reached his 9th
birthday, but he was worn out. A tire
less worker, he neglected nothing entrust-
ed to him, and the old saying che died in
the harness is particularly true in this
case. Senator Sewell will be sorely missed
in many instances He was leader in
every position he occupied. OF strong
will, with decision in all his actions, he
impressed all as one to follow. His ad-
vice was seldom wrong. He had enemies;
no man in the position he held is without
them-but he had friends in all stations of
life; many poor people will shed tears of
sorrow over the death of William j.
Eewell His loss will be great in what
ever aspect it is viewed the home cir
Gle, in the corporations where his counsel
was sought and valued, in the high nation
al body where he was respected and be-
loved, in state circles where his wise
counsel has guided the party he loved
over many shoals.

The bone luz, or the resurrection
bone" is at the lower extremity of the
spinal column. The Jewish rabbis
taught that it was incorruptible, and
from it, as from a seed, the human
body would spring at the resurrection.
There is Jewish tradition that the
Emperor Hadrian questioned rabbi
as to the existence Of this bone and
was convinced by the production of
one by the Jewish teacher. Various
attempts were made to destroy it. 1t
was cast into a furnace and came forth
unconsumed; it was stepped in boiling
water, but remained unsoftened; 1t was
smitten with a hammer, and the ham,
mer was broken. Some trace Of the
former reverence for the bone is found
in the modern name.

will be all right, but as long as he occupies

Nor OFTEN do we see anything in the
Neao York Journal worth copying, but the
following has considerable truth in it
Large men on the bench are not often
troubled with manifestations of contempt
in or out of the courtroom it is the little
men on the bench who are forever having
their official and personal sensibilities
wounded The American bench is threat
ened with no external dangers Respect
for courts is ingrained in the Anglo-Saxon
character So long as Court deserves to
be reverenced the reverence will be forth
coming. No upright Judge, doing justice
with an even hand, and owing nothing to
politicians or powerful financial interests,
need fear that anybody whose esteem is
worth having will hold him in contempt
Judges of any other kind cannot COM
mand respect, and it would be lamentable
were respect accorded them"

A curious feature to travellers in the

whole country-which have to be opened.
These gates, which either mark the

home fields from the waste lands, consti-

ley to the traveller, who has to stop his
vehicle and get down to open them.
