PROF. SWINGS SALOON VISIT.
Famous Chicago Preacher Made an
Amusing Mistake in n Quest
fer Grapes.

Intimate friends of Prof. Swing
knew that he had an uncomfortable
appetite for Malaga grapes, but few
of them ever heard how his fondness
for the fruit once led him unwitting-
ly into a Milwaukee beer saloon
The following story is told by Po-
lice Lieut.. Seery, who, when q patrol
man, used to travel North side post
on which Prof. Swing lived. SAYS the
Chicago Inter Ocean.
''When the weather permitted the
professor used to often accompany
me on my walk around the block,
and he told me many an amusing in
cident of his life. His Milwaukee ex-
perienee was, perhaps, the funniest
of all, and for a long time he was in
fear that the newspapers would hear
Of it. He had gone to Milwaukee on
some matter connected with the
church, and while walking on the
street espied bunch of Malaga
grapes in the window of what ap-
peared to be a store. He was ex-
tremely fond of this particular kind
of grape, ana he saw nothing else,
50 intensely we're his thoughts cen
tered on his tavorite fruit.
IF he had l,aol5ed up at the build
ing he would have seen by the free
lunch signs that it was a lager beer
saloon, but he looked neither to the
right nor left. AS he entered the
place his gaze fell upon a bar at
which several men were standing
with halfemptied glasses in front Of
them. The proprietor, a German,
who formerly lived in Chicago. recog-
nized the professor as soon as he
stuck his head in the door. He came
out from behind the bar, wiping his
fore the professor had fully realized
his mistake the saloonIeeper was
wringine him by the hand.
'Prof. Swing. said the saloon
keeper. 'I am the proudest man in
Milwaukee to think you have paid
me this visit. I am deeply grateful
of the honor conferred upon me. and
7 wish there we're more clergymen
like you, who do not think it crime
to enter a saloon
"All the while the saloonkeeper
was shakfng his hand and taking
the fact was slowly dawning on the
professor that he made a terrible
mistake. And when the white
aproned man mentioned about it not
being a crime to enter saloon the
professor. as he afterward told me.
felt as if he would like to sink
through the floor. He explained to
the saloonl1eeper how he happened
to come into the place, at the same
time backing away toward the door
He forgot all about the grapes, and
the thought uppermost in his mind
was: What would my congregation
say if they saw me now? He was
edging away toward the door when
the saloonkeeper stopped him and
insisted on his taking the whole bas-
let of grapes.
q 1T was close CALI the professor
used to say, and ever after when he
saw grapes displayed in window he
made sure it was not a saloon before
going in to purchase"

SANTA CLAUS BARRED.
Ministers of Hamilton, Ohio, Shut
Him Out

Hamilton, O., Dec 1.-THE conscience
of Hamilton ministers will not permit
them to impose on Sunday school chill
dren longer at the annual Christmas en-
tertainments with men wrapped in
white cotton and laden with candy
bags. This favOTite bOyhoOd tradition
must go according to the combined voice
raised by the preachers yesterday Ac-
ton was taken at the meeting of the
Hamilton ministerial alliance which
met to discuss the question of Christ
mas and the children. The pastors OF
all the leading Protestant churches were
present, and, though the discussion was
long and spirited, the conclusion was
unanimous. Rev. H. Nevin Kerst of the
Reformed church opened the talk He
took the ground that Santa Claus was
a myth, and that the churches were
not justified in fostering even so limo
cent a superstition.
Besides he said, "the Christmas en-
tertainments are becoming purely prac-
teal, and their true significance is lost
sight of. l believe that they should be
used to impress on the children the
story of Christ's birth, and that the
programmes should be confined 20
Christmas carols and the story of the
nativity"
All the ministers concurred in this,
and, whatever the children may think.
there will be no Santa Claus to distrib-
ute nuts and candy this year There
will be plenty of Christmas carols.

GEORGE HARDING DEAD.
Famous Patent Lawyer and Friend of
Lincoln.

George Harding, one of the foremost
patent lawyers in tie country and
we'll known member of the Philadelphia
bar. died IN New York city. He was
rs years old.
Mr.. Harding, in the course of his
legal career represented some of the
grea test corporations in the country
and frequently received enormous fees
received Gees OF 800, 900 each, one of
these being in a hard fought battle over
hat patents. His largest fee was $780,,
o0e.
He was a great friend of Edwin NJ.
Stanton, and. when they went to Hi
nois together to argue a patent case
they associated with them Abraham
Lincoln, because of his acquaintance
association thus formed was strength
ened with years, and when Lincoln
became president he thought so much
of Stanton that he made him secre-
tary of war. Mr.. Harding had an offer
of place on the supreme bench, but re-
fused it. On one occa sion when MI
Harding was guest at a mountain
hotel in New York state he wanted
could be had This vexed him and he
sai1:
"All right, will build hotel of my
own
He Immediately purchased an adjoin-
ing mountain top, and upon this was
erected the big Hotel KaaterskiI, which
the lawyer managed himself for time
when he had largely withdrawn from
the arduous duties Of legal practice
Mr.. Harding was graduated from the
University Of Pennsylvania in 1876, and
after reading law with John Cadwalader
was admitted to the bar in 1919. He
was connected with the Mccormick
reaper case in which Lincoln and Stan
ton figured and in which he showed a
miniature grain field to illustrate the
process of reaping by machinery
When he was arguing the telegraph
vase of s. F. B. Morse against O'Reilly
in the United States supreme court he
operated miniature telegraph system
to illustrate his points, and in a hat
body case made complete hat in the
court room. What is Sc id to have been
his most successful case was the Tilg-
ham glycerine case in which he induced
the supreme court to reverse its first
decision on the question.-New York
