Couldn't Be There to PRAY.

"The most disappointed man I ever
saw" said William J. Casey, a Balti-
more financier, was a poor wretch
who was about to be hanged in one of
the northeastern counties of Mary
land. l happened to be there about
the time and accepted an invitation to
witness the execution. This fellows
lawyers had been working hard to
save his neck, and there seemed to
be some possibility that he might be
reprieved. The time set for the execu-
ton arrived, however, and the sheriff
made plans to carry out the execution.
The march on the scaffold had begun
and the prisoner was about to mount
the steps when a messenger arrived,
banged frantically at the gate of the
Jail yard, and was admitted waving a
telegram in his hand. The procession
was at once stopped, and the sheriff
took the telegram, and saw that it was
addressed to the condemned man. He
handed it to the fellow, who, trembling
with hope, tore open the envelope. He
cast his eager eye at the message,
paled, and let it drop from his hand.
The sheriff picked up the paper, read
it, and the march to the scaffold was
resumed. In a few minutes the man
who had hoped for reprieve was in
eternity. The message was from some
minister who had become interested in
his case. 1t told him to trust in the
Lord and he would be saved. WASH

Africa's Ancient Sea.

Recent studies of the animal life OF
Lake Tanganyika has shown that that
lake differs from all other African
lakes in possessing inhabitants that
belong to oceanic species. Still, these
singular denizens of Lake Tangan-
yika are not exactly like the marine
organisms of the present day, and the
conclusion is drawn that a, sea, con-
nected with the open ocean, once occu-
pied the part of Africa where Tangan-
yika now lies, and that the lake is the
last remnant of the ancient sea.

SMALL ROOMS IN NEW HOTELS
Every Inch Of Space Utilized in Order
to Meet Expenses.

Every Inch Of Space Utilized in Order
to Meet Expenses.
"The evolution in hotels during the
past few years has been interesting"
said Mr.. Charles Logan of New York.
who is in town for few days. "Of
course, the most noticeable features
are the extensive modern improve.
ments. such as baths, washstands, tele-
phones, etc., in each room and the
generally improved equipment of the
buildings. A feature which is not so
noticeable, but one which is very i'm
portant to the hotel man, however is
the decrease in the size of the rooms.
Hotel rooms used to have high CELL
ings and were long and broad. Now
they are mostly small, with compare
lively low ceilings. Sometimes l hear
guests ask each other why the rooms
are so small nowadays, and they sell
dom hit on the right reason. 1t is
because the cost of erecting and op-
Grating hotel is much greater than
formerly, while the extent of the pat
ronage is about the same. It is neces-
sary to make the rooms small in order
that the same space may bring bigger
returns. Take one big room which
used to produce, say So day, and it
is now cut in two so as to make the
same space produce Sc or IS a day.
The hotel which used to occupy It's
site contained about $50 rooms, but
look at the difference in cost of the
two hotels, and in the expense of main
tanning and operating them. A hotel
that used to cost 100000 now costs
81 200, 900. "-Washington Post.

Who Miss Belongings.
Some funny stories are being told
and there are many others that nigh,
be in connection with the epidemic Of
rummage sales which has swept ovel
the city. Quite little might be said
about one Of the woman managers
who laid down her coat and left it fol
moment. only to find it sold upon
her return. Another tale might be
told OF man who had lost his silk
nat much after the sarne fashion and
VINO rescued it from an untimely fate
after d1l1gent labor and a choice as
sortment of explosives, and SO on
almost ad. lib. But the funniest
might be related of two men, two wo-
men and two shirts One of the men
who may be designated as Mr.. A, had
couple of fine shirts, which, how
ever. were too small for him, and one
DAY he announced that he would wear
them no longer. Mrs. A. then took ad-
vantage OF the opportunity to contri-
butte them to certain rummage sale.
There they were seen by Mrs. B., who,
observing the excellence, and the new
ness, of the garments, promptly pur-
chased them for Mr.. B.
The other day Mr.. A. and Mr.. B..
were walking down the street together.
Suddenly Mr.. A. commented on the
shirt worn by Mr.. B., saying it was
Just like one Of his, which was strange,
as his had been made to order. Mr.. B.
said he did not know where it came
from, as his wife had purchased it.
One word brought on another, and
finally out Of curiosity Mr.. A. turned
back the cuff Of the shirt in which Mr..
B. was attired and thereon found his
(Mr. A.'s) initials. Explanations were
sought and found, and it would be diff
1cult to discover two more disguised
men than those.-Wilmington (Del)
