To Await Good Behavior,
The boy was SO small that he did not
know any better. He did not think that
he was bothering his sister; if she was
sixteen, she was old enough to know
that. She was not the one to do the
slapping, anyway; she ought to have
told her mother and had her take care
of him. If I were the mother, would
have sent her upstairs, and made her
stay there until she could behave her
self, and if the boy was crying, would
make him stop.

A Sad Little Picture
When Roberts sister was about sew
enteen she was studying very hard in
order to pass the examinations at
Christmas. 1t was her last year in the
high school and she was anxious to COM
plete all of her studies.
One evening she was very busy with
her lessons when little Robert began
teasing her to play with him. She kept
telling him to let her alone, but it was
no use. He was determined she should
play with him. She finally gave him
such slap that it made poor little
Roberts cheek nearly purple. Just then
her mother heard the noise and wanted
to know all about it. Robert told his
mother and then she put him to bed.
Thinking over what had happened, she
went down to her daughter and talked
with her. She said that if she had
taken few minutes to play with him,
all of that fuss would have been
avoided. Wien his sister went to bed
she stopped to take look at Robert.
The tears were still on his cheek and his
little mouth was drawn down at the
corners. The punishment was worse for
the girl than for the little boy. After
that she tried to be more patient with
him. Lizzie Twichell, d.

Willie, go away" says a girl, who is
trying to study hard, to her little
brother who is teasing her to play with
him. But Willie is bound to have his
sister play with him, for he does not see
any use in studying His sister, in
stead of telling him in kind way to
wait till she has finished her lesson,
only says, Go away. I have no time
for play" But Willie keeps on teasing
till at last she says, Il will make you

The mother comes in just as Willie is
slapped. She does not know which one
is to blame, and which to punish. My
opinion is that they are both to blame

RAPID GROWTH OF TOWN.
Population Jumped as Result of Visit
 From President Hayes.

Population Jumped as Result or N1Slt
 From President Hayes.
 Mir. George Lte4nents, or Kansas City, a well-known knight of the sample case, is responsible for the following story, says the Baltimore News:
 "Talk about the rapid growth of cities, why, Neosho Falls, Kan, holds the record. I think the town is still on the map, but won't be sure. At any rate, remember when the popu- lation jumped in one day from 500 to 10000, and the next day jumped back again. This was merely occasloned by fair, and not country fair at that, but simply little crossroads celebratio It was just after Presi- dent Hayes had been elected. He was touring the west at the time, and the citizens of Neosho Falls secured a promise from him to attend their fair. The town was fortunately on the line of a railroad, with a service of two trains day, but when the company learned of the presidents proposed visit gang of workmen at once started to lay sidings. At least dozen were constructed around the little frame station, together with a ' for the convenience of the engines. When the great day arrived the pres ident was at hand, with several mem- bers of his cabinet and military es- cort from Fort Riley. The railroad company estimated that 4o,ooo people visited Neosho Falls that day, and I dare say some of them are talking about it yet. The next day the wis itors were all gone, for there were no hotel accommodations, and nothing to feed them with. The gang of work men came back and tore up the sid ings and the Y, and the town again resumed it's normal placidity, just as though nothing had happened"

 Kansas City, Mo, Feb 21.-General Frederick Funston, ill discussing the water cure" form of torture charged against the soldiers i'll the Philippines, said that he had never seen the water cure" applied, but had heard it described. ''Ihe victim is bound and canteen forced in his mouth,'' said the general. His head is thrown upward and back and Els nose grasped by the fingers of the torturer Strangulation follows, as a matter of course.

He was arrested, and Walker, as judge of the police court, fined him $200. Since that time, it is said, bad feeling has existed between the men.
 Walker had occasion to go to Flaw kins's dry goods store and found With erspon there Witherspoon cursed Walker but the latter, making no re sponse, retired. After he had eaten his luncheon Walker returned to the store, and finding Witherspoon still there, asked him to retract his recent language. Witherspoon, realizing that trouble was coming, retreated to the door, where he turned and attempted to draw his revolver. The weapon had caught in his pocket and he was com pelled to turn sidewise while using both hands to release it. Meanwhile Walker, seeing Witherspoon reaching for his gun, drew his own and fired point blank at Witherspoon. The lat ter tucked and the bullet clipped his ear. Walker then fired again. and this time grazed the shoulder of his antag- onist. Before Witherspoon could bring his revolver into play the judge had fired the third shot. which struck With erspon in the back. below and slightly to the left of the right shoulder With erspoon fell to the floor and was re- moved to his home, where his life is despaired of.

REV H. B. ROBERTS TALK.
At Bible Society Conference He Told Why Connecticut is Mission Field


 Hartford, Conn, Feb 21.--At the annual conference of the American Bible society of New York held in Salem, Mass, to-day, the Rev Henry B. Roberts of this city spoke in behalf Of the Connecticut Bible society. In his paper he said he proposed to show why Connecticut is a mission field for Bible work In the country town on the hills, he said small manufac- turing has been driven out, agricul- 1 ture has not prospered, the population has been drained of it's best for 60 years and it leaves such towns ill q very discouraged condition. The tide of population is turning back, and for teigners of the more ignorant type are buying the old farms for song. In such discouraging conditions, the Pu- ritan stock shows some signs of de- generacy, for in the more remote dis tricts as high as 50 per cent of the population confess to attending no place of worship.
 The largest amount of irreligiCn is found in congested city centers, where boarding houses and apartments clus- ter.
 "One great help to the evangeliza- tion of the remoter country districts Is the Bible colportage work of the Connecticut Bible society. Connec- Iticut, like the other New England states, is oyerchurched in the smaller towns. but the spirit of federation is growing and the inclination to meet ion the common ground of the Bible is increasing.''
