Capt. Gordon also had chance to es-

the roof OF a low shed from which he

Some time ago an earnest prohibitiOnist came unawares on lone fisherman, who happened at the mo ment to be quietly drinking something from q black bottle. He was so much scandalized by the sight that at the prayer meeting that evening he re- ferred to the incident as follows: % Lord, we ask Thee to turn from his evil ways the poor besotted sinner I seen this afternoon swinging rum from q

A KING WHO IS THRIFTY.
The Home Life and Financial Shrewd-
 ness of George I of Greece.

A personal letter recently received by
 a newspaper man in Washington from
 a special agent of the United States government, whose duties recently took ] him to Greece, contains much interest | ing data about King George l and
 his domestic affairs. King George is 1 the son of the king of Denmark, the
 brother-in-law of the king of England
 and his sister. the queen consort of
 England. is the aunt by marriage of
 the emperor of Germany, and his 1 brother, Prince Henry.
 If the American newspapers are not i overdoing the thing.' says the writer.
 "I take it that you ought to be inter-
 ested in a royal parsonage with such
 connections as this king. who holds his throne by election. That he is today among his people one of the most pop
 ular sovereigns in Europe. proves him | q man not only of great ability but of
 much sagacity and diplomacy. His rare I inheritance of Anglo-SaXon courage ! has contributed to his present pOpu- 1 larity. Already enthusiastic admirers ] of the kings abilities since his heroic | act in fearlessly shielding his daughter. the Princess Marie, when in 1899 an att | tempt on his fife was made by a rene gade Greek, his subjects have adored him.
 "The king of Greece has been accused
 of being addicted to the 'unroyal habit of making money: of being unduly ] concerned about financial matters:
 even to being so clever as a speculator l that he has become a multi-millionaire. i That this last is untrue there Is no ! question, although by his business sa- oi+ hi +I,,if4 ment he has accumulated a large prop I erty.
 "In an article which recently ap- pe2red in an American newspaper the writer asserted that in his family King ! George is a martinet. Such q state 1nent no one in Athens could be made | to believe. True or untrue, the fact is
 patent to the most superficial observer l that the system of training that has
 prevailed in the royal family has been
 altogether successful. A finer group oe
 young men than the sons of King
 George one rarely sees. Sturdy. stall

WON'T STAND FOR IT.
Ministers Knock on Presentation oi
 Passion Play in New York.

The proposed production in New York city of the Passion Play by the professional theatrical company which is now creating such a sensation with the play in Montreal, will not be given. as the ministry of the city is almost unanimous in opposition. and the man- agement will not give the play unless 1 the clergy gives permission. Bishop l Potter. man most liberal in his views, opposes the production and says it would be ill advised and unfortunate. 1 The objections, he thinks, seem to far outweigh whatever advantages it may have, and he thinks the production would be a sacrilege. In Montreal, the Monument National theater where the Passion Play is now being given, seats 2,4O0 people, and at every performance every seat is filled and the standing room is crowded. None of the Protes 1 tant clergy there have demonstrated against the play since they found that | the company was most capab ble, and | that the play was creating a lasting
 and deep impression upon the people
 and the Catholic priests have all at tended and approved the performances. | The Catholic archbishop there has not | ye! gone on record in regard to the play. but one of his assistants has re- ! marked that "As the play seems to
 have a good effect on those who go
 ti'cre will be no interference"
 | The ministry of New York is strongly
 opposed to the play being produced ill
 that city, and their wishes in the mat
 ter will be respected. The Rev. D. J McNanon expresses the sentiment of
 the most of them when he says he can
 see no place where good will come from the play. and that in his opinion its production would be a sacrilege. "The
 production does not appeal to anything
 but the dramatic and critical sense
 without regard to the inspiration
 which comes from religious presenta-
 ton. The play at Oberammergau ex-
 ercises a good and valuable influence
 but it should never be produced in any
 other place."
