jailer and which is worth considerable
money 10 MIN.

At Lincoln Institute.

Elder j. B. Parsons, President
Of the Christian Church Corpora
ton in Missouri, delivered an ad-
dress to the students of Lincoln
Institute last Sunday at 3. p. M,
on the subject, Grown Your
Hope" Elder Parsons is an able
speaker, and the subject was made
very impressive.
A special program had been ar
ranged by Prof. Reynolds, and the
attendance was good. Madams
Anthony and Salone Yates, were
both present, and in their good
%humoredly way, added much to the
dignity Of the services. The sing
ing was led by Miss Carney, and il
was excellent. President B. F,
Allen oficiated in the meeting, and
at the close of the services, made
some very eulogistic remarks, with
reference to the falthfulness and
perseverance of the students.

PLAIN TALK.

Bishop G. T. Shaffer when Civ.
ing out the appointments to the
members of the conference at Mo-
berly last Sunday lectured the
ministers regarding their conduct.
He called their attention to the fact
that the minister should be the
most refined man in the community
and referred to the habit of SO
many ministers who, in making
their pastoral calls" call at the
same house every time and remain
an unreasonable length of time,
ignoring other members of their
congregation, etc. The Bishops
remarks are very timely. Let it
be said to the shame and disgrace
Of some of those occupying the
sacred rostrum and preaching
Christianity to great congregations
and often do we find them answer
ing to grave charges of drunken
mes and immortality etc. 1t is sad
and it is to be regretted that such
infest some communities but never
the less it is true.

Thousands of Indiana People.

LINCOLN CITY, IND, October
A monument to Nancy Hanks
Lincoln was dedicated here to-day,
and Notwithstanding the disagree
able weather, the largest crowd
that ever gathered in the county
witnessed the ceremonies. The
grove in which the monument is
located was cleaned of underbiush
and a number of eating stands,
one capable of seating a thousand
people, were erected. One of the
Disappointing features of the
exercises was the inability of j. S.
Culver to be present. He is the
contractor who furnished the stone
for the Nancy Hanks monument,
from the old base of the Abraham
Lincoln monument at Springfield.
He charged nothing for the stone,
and his liberality made the Nancy
Hanks monument a possibility.
Gen. John G. Black of Chicago
delivered the Grafton and Gov.
Durbin accepted the monument.

SISTERS OF GOOD SHEPHERD.
Convent Opened by Bishop Tierney
 Yesterday Morning.

Hartford Dec 19.-The formal open ing of the House of the Good Shepherd on Sisson avenue, occurred yesterday morning, when the Right Rev Bishop Tierney celebrated mass in the chapel of the community. The establishment of this new institution is important, since it inaugurates an eminently prac- tical work of charity in this diocese. Tn this state there has been thus far no Catholic institution which fur nished a refuge for wayward girls who desire to begin life anew.
 The community of devoted women who now undertake this beneficent la bor here is a branch of a congregation established for this purpose some eighty years ago at fingers. France
 The order grew so rapidly that in . 1857 Plus TX granted a decree dividing the order into provinces. Tn the United States there are five provinces: St Louis, Brooklyn. Philadelphia, Cincin- nati and St Paul. The provincial house of the Hartford community is in Brook iyn.
 The little band of five sisters who arrived in this city last Monday will certainly meet with warm welcome and hearty cooperation on the part of all who appreciate the noble character f of their mission.

Mountain Education.


 Teaching school in the Kentucky mountains has never been easy work, and it is a question whether the long suffering dominic, who strives men tally and physically with the fresh, uncultured native product that is brought under his care, does not at least bear off with hiE at the end of the term diplonsg that would admit him at any time to all the q1ories and privileges of martyrdom. h a land famous for it's family 9euds, abundantly familiar with the seductions of ''moonshine," and pushing it's politics to the verge of revolution, tractability in man or bov is not a. characteristic trait. Neither are the appliances for teach ing numerous or adequate. The first school had no textbooks what9s-er, and instead of paper, smooth boards of whitewood were used, with the :54,ice of oak balls for ink. To-day the equipment of the log school houses that dot the creeks and nestle emong the hills of the Appalachian wilderness has not undergone very marked advance over those first primitive conditions, while the native human type is still characterfzed by <he old time careIessness. noncha- lance and scorn for the tramne]s of 1atter-day civil:ea tion lion Clifford, ln Pilgrim.

REEDS NERVE.

To illustrate the nerve of Thomas B. Reed the following story is told:
 ''Old Howdy,' as MT Martin, an un- couth and picturesque Texan, was called because of his usual mode of greeting his friends, declared with sul- phurous language that he never would permit himself to be counted in one Of Reeds quorums. and when an oc- casion came he arose in his wrath and inquired whether the speaker had vio- lated that well-known determination. AIr Reed informed him that he had been included With the rest, whereuDon "0ld Howdy" lost his temper entirely and started for the chair, swinging his long arms in most violent manner and shouting the vengeance that he in tended to take when he reached his victim. Twenty stalWart republicans rushed toward the desk to protect MT Reed and quite as many mortified democrats sprang into the area to hold off the excited Texan, fearing that in. his fury he would kill the speaker if he did not carve up that massive cor porosity with a bowie knife. Although his coat tails were torn off in the melee Martin managed to reach the desk and shaking his fist within an inch of the speakers nose, shouted the most of fensive and insulting epithets. Reed did not appear to notice that anything unusual was going on. The house held it's breath. and all they heard was that familiar Yankee drawl:
 ''The gentleman from Texas will be kind enough to take his seat''
 "Old Howdy" was para1yzed. He could not conceive that any man would submit to the epithets that he had ut tered without drawing knife or re- voIver. According to Texas etiquette he could not shoot or cut until his an-. tagonist had produced weapons. So he looked around in 8 bewildered, helpless, disappointed sort of a way, and complained to his friends who were attempting to restrain him:
 srhe blanlety blank won't fight
 The gentleman from Texas is out of order" drawled Reed again, tand will take his seal

PROBATION LAW.
Bill Will Be Introduced in Legisla-.
 ture.

Bill Will Be Introduced in Legisla-
 ture.
 At the coming session of the general assembly, Representative Henry Lam- bert of New London will present a bill to be known as a probation law for first offenders. Representative Lam- bert said last night that the law is sim liar to one that is now in effect in the states of Rhode Island and Massachu- setts. It provides probation of pris- oners who are arrested and convicted in the courts for their first offenses.
 It is the belief of many students of sociology that many criminal careers are started through the association or first offenders with. older criminals that they come in contact with in the pris- ons and jai1s, Representative Lambert says that his bill has 8 tendency to give all first offenders another chance.
 After conviction the Lambert bill provides that it will be optional with the prisoner whether he shall be sen fenced by the court or pass into the custody of probation officer, an office created by the bilI Once in the GUS tody of the probation officer the pris- oner is on his good behavior and is
 
 the costs of his case to the state. only reporting to the probation officers reg ularly at such time that may be pre- scribed by the courts. The bill also provides for districts to be known as probation districts to be presided over by the appointed probation officers. In each district the bill asks that there shall be a female officer as we'll as a male probation officer
 The bill is one that has the support of prominent clergymen throughout the state who believe that many young people who have blundered and gotten into trouble through lack of wisdom will be given another chance to become better members of the community in which they reside by being allowed probation. It is provided in the bill that it be optional with the probation officers of the courts to bring the pro- bationers into court at my time to be sentenced in case of a breach of the probation rules.
