SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

The number Of churches in Chicago.
according to the city directory for
1902, Is 666.
The Los Angeles Bible institute, in
the first year Of its activity, has is
sued and circulated nearly $4,000 cop
les of the Spanish marked New les
lament, at cost of $4,000.
It is said that Gen. William Booth,
founder Of the Salvation Army, was
induced to decide on a speedy tour
of this country by fear that too many
of his former followers were taking
up with the Dowie idea.
Prince Rola, son and heir Of the
muree of Rajputana, India, has become
a student at the University OF Califor'
MIA. He Is a graduate of Calcutta
university. The prince IL the first ma
tive prince Of India to go to the west
ern states for education.
Among the other provisions in the
contract which the Downs (Kan.l
school board makes the teachers sign
is this: mo teacher shall engage in
dancing or card playing during the
continuance of this contract, nor at
tend any formal parties during the
school week"
DR.. Ernest Laplace, professor OF
surgery and clinical surgery in the
Medico- Chirurgical college and hos
pital of Philadelphia, who recently re-
turned from Europe, has brought back
a decoration which was conferred upon
him by the French government in rec
ognition of his valuable scientific and
medical researches. The decoration
carries with it admittance to the
Palmes Academiques, an honor much
sought after by medical and scientific
men.
Whistling in church, once regarded
as a proclamation, now bids fair to be-
come a regular feature Of the serv-
ices. At one Of the New York churches
Miss Louise Truax has introduced the
novelty of whistling the offertory. So
successful has this been in attracting
the congregation to worship that many
of the most fashionable churches In
the city are now bidding for her serv-
ices.

LONG LIFE AND MERRY ONR.
Americans Who Are Strenuous Out
live the Africans Who Are
IndO1ent.

It seems that we are all wrong
about the hurtful and life-shortening
effect Of American hustle" Our ma
tional motto may be said to have
been: "a short life, but a strenuous
one" We are willing, as a people,
to have the span shortened a little
II only we could have something
worth while, something active and
effective, going all the time. But 1t
seems, according to the latest bulle-
tin of the census bureau, that the
fast life is also the long one, says
Harper's Weekly. Our "medisn age"
that is, the age which is such that
half the population is under it and
half over it's more than seven
years greater than it was a century
ago, and increases from decade to
decade. We are surprising easy-go-
ing foreign countries in this re-
spect; we are surprising even the
loose-jointed, indolent, beautifully re-
Taxed, never-worrying African in our
midst; for whereas the median age
of our American whites Ia 23.4 years,
that of the devil-may-care colored
person is but 1873. Lately much con-
fusion has arisen In the minds of
many Americans over the statement
made by certain eminent neurolo-
gists that 1t is next to impossible
for a man to "overwork," provided
his bodily functions are kept in good
order by temperate and wholesome
living. Other physicians, to be sure,
tell US that hurry and worry spell
death. We have accepted the latter
with the qualifying rehec-
ton that no matter what science
tells u.s. it always seems to have
another thing coming" This CEN
sus bulletin which links the long life
with the fast one appears to be the
other "think."

A NEWSPAPER REBUKED
A Democratic Executive Committee IN
Ninth District.

Bristol Tenn, Oct 27.-Because Of its
failure to support Congressman w. F..
Rhea, the Democratic nominee for re-
election in the Ninth Virginia District, the
Democratic executive committee, at a
meeting held at Abingdon to-day, rebuked
the Abingdon Virglnian by adopting g
resolution condemning the paper as un.
democratic, and therefore unworthy Of the
support of the Democrats Of the county.
Tie resolution calls upon the Democrats to
no longer give their support to the paper,
because, as claimed, it does not support
Democratic principles nor Democratic
candidates.

AN UNIQUE SPOT TO LIVE.


| Mrs. Hattie Golf has been spending
a few days with friends in this city
leaving for her home yesterday morn
ing. and her home is in the extreme
southwest corner of Iowa. In two
minutes she can step into Missouri and
in ten minutes she can be in Nebraska.
In fact Missouri is only ten feet from
her door and she hangs her wash on
the state line. Once II. neighbor came
TO borrow a settin OF eggs. He had
been charged with some petty misde-
meanor and the Iowa sheriff was just
waiting for that opportunity to nab
him, but the Missuurian had his
weather eye out and with a skip and
jump he was on Missouri soil; the
sheriff got tangled in that state line
like barbed wire and had to come
back. The schoolma'ilm hasn't quite
enough Iowa pupils to make class in
spelling and so she cor'als several Mis-
souri, yollnguns to show them how.
The Big Muddy rolls past Mrs. Colts
west door. which affords her a good
deal of company, for many boats pass
up and down-pleasure boats from Ne
braska City and government riff-raf-
fling boats, besides occasional picnic
parties. Her home is seven miles from
Hamburg and six from Nebraska City.
To go to the latter city she and her
Husband have to travel twelve miles.
unless they would go by water in half
the distance. But queerly enough Mr.
Golf is afraid of water, altho he was
born on the river bank and has lived
in stones throw of ii all his life. He
never goes fishing, but buys his fish of
the fishermen who follow fishing as
trade.
Mrs. Ctoff is not isolated and lonely,
as you might think. The rural carrier
brings the daily paper and telephone
line will soon put than in speaking
connection with Hamburg. Mrs. Golf
is an intelligent and cultivated lady
and can make the old Missouri river
bottom ring with the music of a piano
made in 1S47, an heirloom in the fam
