KipIing's Prayer.

In a recent address to the students
of Yale University on Robust Relig-
ious Faith" Bishop Brewster, of Con-
necticut, cited for them the case Of
Rudyard Kipling when he was criti-
cally i'll in New York. He said;
Il suppose you young men are more
or less readers of Rudyard Kiping.
There is no name in English literature
that stands more truly for masculinity
than Kipling. In fact, he is said to
be not ladylike enough to suit some
of his critics. The story that l am
to relate about Kipling, and l sup
pose none of you has heard it, comes
to me first hand, and shows the
strong, vigorous faith which is back
of the mans writing.
"a trained nurse was watching at
the bedside of Mr. Kipling at the time
when the author was in the most crit
ical stage of sickness, and she noticed
that his lips began to move. She
bent over him, thinking he wanted to
say something to her, and she heard
him utter these words: Now l lay
me down to sleep, that old familiar
prayer of childhood days. The nurse,
realizing that Kipling didn't require
her services, said in an apOlOgetic
whisper, I beg your pardon, Mr.. Kip
ling, I thought you wanted some
thing
al do, family observed Kipliug.
4 want my Heavenly Father. He
only can care for me now.
at is this masculine, robust relig-
ious faith that We see in Kiplings
writings" added Bishop Brewster,
"and it is a faith which the young
men of Yale University may well car
ry with them in the performance of
their daily work"

John Wise and the President.

The following story on former
Richmonder won the prize offered by
the New York Times for the best an
ecdote of real life:
Ex-Congre.sman John S. Wise, Of
Virginia, is warm, personal friend
of President Roosevelt. Being in
Washington few days ago he visited
the White House and was promptly
accorded an interview. In the course
of the conversation the President is
said to have suddenly remarked;
Now, John, you are very OBJ
serving man, and know pretty near
what is going on. Tell me what the
people seem to think Of my admins
tration?"
"Oh, Mr.. President" Mr.. Wise re-
piled, "the opinion seems to be that
you will go down to posterity with
Washington"
81 am delighted to hear that, the
President is said to have answered,
interruptingly, as he grasPed Mr..
Wise's hand and shook it heartily.
But as he released bis hold, Mr.. Wise
continued
But whether it will be with George
or Booker T. l am not prepared to
say.

Judge Dibell of Joliet, in a recent
address, said Much Of the crime
found in this and every community ls
traceable directly or indirectly to the
use of intoxicating drink" He said
furthermore THE physical wrecks,
mental wrecks, financial moral wrecks,
spiritual wreck, caused by the demon
drink; the woe and misery caused the
human race by the use OF liquors, all
unite in urging US to heed the warn
ings Of the wi,e man of old, when he
says Wine ia a mocker, strong drink
is raging; and whosoever is deceived
thereby is not wise. The wise man,
no matter what his calling or avoca-
ton, cannot afford to be anything else
but total abstainer."

unnatural in their growth. At first
he crouched in a corner and whined
like frightened animal, but in time
he stood face to face with the first of
his kind that he had ever seen.
There i. no doubt that he had been
a prisoner since early childhood, and.
perhaps, since birth. Nobody in the
neighborhood had ever seen the young
man before and older people did not
know that there was ever child at
Deitrich's house since the one horn %
years ago, of which they had heard.
They believed the child long since
dead end buried, or sent away to some
of Deitrich's relations in Germany,
The stone room stands on slopIng
ground at the rear of the house, but
the floor of the prison is on level
with that part of the house in which
DIETRICH lived and is connected with
it by passage leading from his room.
Through a slit in the heavy oaken
door DIETRICH evidently passed food and
water to the prisoner. The cell Is
seven by nine feet.
THE prison room contained no artl-
Gle of furniture. A heap Of straw and
rags in the corner served as a bed
The key of the lock on the only door
leading into the room was found in
Deltrichs room.
The finding of the prisoner was ac-
cidental, and had it not been that two
of the men at the funeral went into
Deitrichs room the man in the stone
prison might have been left to starvs
to death. These two men heard II
sound like the whining Of dog that
appeared to be very close to them.
Tbs body of DIETRICH lay in the front
part of the house and the small pro-
cession was almost ready to start TO
the graveyard with it. Seeing KEY
hanging on tn. wall and noticing the
heavy door leading into the stone
room one OF the men unlocked II and
swung the door open.
Before them stood the poor fellow,
apparently in starving condition.
The prisoner had not been fed for
many days, during the last illness and
after the death Of DIETRICH.
"a brother of DIETRICH in Texas had
been notified Of his death and arrived
a few days after the funeral. He be-
lieves that the young man will learn
to talk and that he may yet acquire
a good education. He has a subject
for physical and psychological study
such as has seldom been known in
the world before and has expressed
his determination to right the wrongs
committed by his brother so far a, may
lay in his power"

The complexion always suffers from

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.

New York, March is-The recent character OF
the stock market was not materially changed to-
day. Speculative ncursions into the field Of the
usually important stocks were few and dosultory
'in character Now and then a seemingly active
buying movement would develop in some stocks
that has been occasionally market leader In
the past, but the activity would as suddenly sub
side and the dealings revert to some rarely ac.
tive stock. The high priced speoialtica, continued
in favorable inquiry and number of low priced
industrials were also bought np to a considerably
higher level of prices The minor railroads were
less conspicuous, although a few Of these con-
iinued TO show wide movements. There were
declines on proft.taking in these classes rs well
as the new strong points, The most conspicuous
movement of this kind was IN North American
which jumped about in an erratic manner in the
course OF q sensational advance OF lilf points
on unusually heavy dealings. THE movement
was without explanation beyond the long time
gossip of the availability of the company's com.
prclcnsivc charter rights for the purpose OF some
great consolidation scheme. Other stocks not
usually prominent whicr show striking ad
vances were American and Continental Tobacco
preferred, General Electric, Pullman Colorado
Union Traction, International Pump and Rut.
land preferred. Among the more prominent
stocks Amagamated Copper continued active and
found support after the recent heavy decline
Much OF the buying attributed to the demand
from the shorts to cover. Sugar, on the other
hand, was reactionarv on account of the dsap
pointment over the reduction of the tariff on
Cuban sugars. An instance OF the disposition TO
take profits OH good news was the selling OF Pa.
cifc Mail on the passage of the ship subsidy bill
by the senate. The New York public utilities
also suffered from prolit'taking after some carly
advance. The most consistent movement OF the
day was that in the coalers, which represented
speculation on the outcome of negotiations be-
tween anthracite miners and operators for an
agreement upon relations during the coming
year. Lackawanna made Characteristic adj
vance of points but the gains otherwise ran
between one and two points. The modeinting OF
the weather in the west had some influence IN

Forest City, March 1S.-The marriage

has been the sensation of the week in
this vicinity. The Tribune last week
