Mayor Myers rendered his decision
yesterday in the case of Policeman
John Christian, who was charged by
Mr. 7. l.. Anderson with having
abused and having struck him. The
hearing before the Mayor had taken
place the day before, but the Mayor
had reserved his decision. This, when
rendered, was found to be that the
officer should pay fine of 500 and re-
ceive a severe reprimand from the SUI
perintendent of police. 1t is evident
from this penalty that the Mayor re-
garded his offense as grave.

Vegetable Caterpillar

Among the many strange growths,
apparently freaks of nature, which are
to be found in New Zealand, the veg
etable caterpillar readily ranks among
the foremost. This caterpillar is sew
eral inches in length, is hairless, and
does not differ essentially in appear
ance from some of the caterpillars Of
our own land.
Its claim to distinction lies in the
fact that when it gets ready to die it
digs a hole for itself in the earth and
completely buries itself. Later slen-
der green shoot springs from the spot.
This bears two or more leaves near it,
top.
Upon investigation it is found that
the green shoot springs from the head
of the dead caterpillar, and further In
vestigation develops the fact that the
body of the caterpillar is filed with
roots.
The form is retained without
change, and the roots do not pierce
through the skin or enter the ground.
When dug up this dead yet living
freak presents most odd appearance,
for the head and even the eyes of the
caterpillar are distinctly seen, yet
from the head is growing the green
sprout, with its leaves.

Presbyterian. to Celebrate.


President Roosevelt will attend the
Presbyterian jubilee celebration OF the
conclusion Of 100 years of home mis-
sion effort. This celebration is to be
the elimination of the forthcoming
Presbyterian general assembly. to
meet this year in New York City. Dur
ing these 100 years the board of home
missions has received and expended
$23, 200, 900, has helped to build $500
churches. and has issued $4,000 COM
missions to missionaries. Its income
in the year 1902 was $780, and it had
just closed it's year 1902, showing an
income of 1904 400 Practically all
Presbyterian churches west of the AL
ieghenies were assisted by this board
at some time. One of them. the West
minister of Minneapolis, was a mission
airy church half century ago. Last
year its gifts to benevolences were
$39, 900. President Roosevelt's greet

The story is told of a minister in
his study, tired. annoyed, discouraged
His messages had been poorly re-
ceived, his people seemed inapprecia-
tive, sin was gaining on his church
He saw nothing clearly. but was shad-
owed by dark doubts that were in his
heart. He sat at his familiar desk
with his face buried in his hands
Over the desk hung Hofmann's picture
of Christ among the Doctors, an in
spiration generally now forgotten. His
little boy came to the door, wanting
to see him. The minister turned ir-
ritably, and told the child to go away.
AS the little fellow started to go,
he said with fearful voice, "Good-by,
papa" then, seeing the picture over
the desk, with its strong, young face
speaking comfort and strength, he ad-
ded. "Good-by. Jesus And the father
suddenly saw why he had been SO dis
couraged. He was separated from Je-
sus. He had left Him out. He had

and tide, at the countless troubles, ali
around him, but had left Christ out

For Soul Winning on1v,

How many meetings are held for
soul-winning only? Every evangelist
knows how many things are consid-
cred. The church holds a great meet
ing so that it may increase it's tinan-
cial strength. Preachers, officers and
members are asking: Will the meet
ing give us social standing? Will it
increase our attendance, and help US
pay our debts? Meetings are held to
build up the pastor, to pay off debts,
to enlarge the influence of the church,
and to give the church responsibility,
but, oh, how few are held for soul
winning. l would like to hold one
meeting where the effort was for soul
winning only. Success would be as
sured before we began. Half OF our
efforts are exhausted in warming I'D

cry out, Give us souls, or we perish! "

Question Wen Answered.

We wish to answer seriously a
seemingly fippant inquiry. emitting,
OF course, the signature of the writer:
TO the Editor of the Chicago Am
erican: Will you tell me how l man
age to think my most beautiful thinks
in drink?"
We answer your question with great
pleasure.
Some men really do their best work
under the influence of drink, for this
reason: Drink has weakened their
nerves and put their constitutions and
vitality permanently below par
They do their best work when they
drink, just as poor, thin. abused.
tired cart horse does his best work
when he is dashed with a whip. This
does not speak we'll for the whip, does
it? 1t does not prove that the flashing
of the horse is noble process, or the
whip an admirable instrument. 1t
simply proves that If you abuse an
unfortunate creature and render him
unfit for work you must abuse him
still more to get little work out of
him.
You think your most beautiful,
thoughts in drink for various reasons.
In the first place. when you drink
you are quite easily pleased, and you
are pleased most easily with yourself
II you were sober your thoughts
would not seem so beautiful to you.
Often what you think, in drink, you
would be very sorry to hear repeated
in your dull, sober hours.
In the second place feeling is essen
tial to any strong thinking. 1t is es-
sential to the expression Of any strong
emotion.
The man who drinks hard. Or even
comes to rely to any extent upon
drink has dead nerves and dead i'm
agination. when his drink time is over
Drink sets the heart to beating, it
sets the blood to pumping through
the brain, it stimulates the mysterious
combustion of matter which results in
thought, and emotion becomes strong
er in proportion to the strength that
accompanies this combustion.

is drunk. He has some feeling. The
dull mind gets imaginative. 1t has
some feeling.
make the dull mind better. 1t usually
makes both ridiculous and pathetic,
in addition to being cowardly and
dull.
Stop drinking for six months, sleep
two hours more per day than you
sleep at present, take in more fresh
air. think steadily and soberly instead
of talking boisterously. as you prob
ably do now. We venture to predict
that you will soon find springing up
in your head some very acceptable
thinks" with which drink will have
nothing to do.

Mrs. Mary H. Hunt OF the depart
ment of scientific temperance instruc-
tions in schools and colleges, of the
National Womans Christian Temper
ance union in Boston, has sent out the
views of an eminent physician upon
the so-called fallacy that alcohol is in
any sense a food She writes, says a
New York World special:
There has been going the rounds
of the newspapers on account of ex-
periments with alcohol on frogs legs,
in which it is said the eXperimenters
eound, as did Prof. Atwater Of Wes-
leyan university, that in certain pro-
portions alcohol is essentially mus
cle food. This the experiments on the
frogs legs deny, but the reports are
still circulating, together with Prot
Atwater's affirmations of the food
value of alcohol. Concerning the PRO-
sanlgation Of such errors, DR.. II. 8.

One of the best known cities in
the United States gained it's name by
the toss of penny! Two men named
Pettygrove and Lovejoy were the first
owners of the ground on which the
city of Portland, Ore, now stands.
Pettygrove had gone there from Maine
and Loveioy from Massachusetts.
Pettygrove, out of admiration for
Portland in his own state, wanted to
name the new place Portland. Love
JOY, being a Boston man, insisted upon
calling it Boston. Unable to agree,
they finally decided to toss penny,
the man getting heads to name the
place. Pettygrove got the heads, and
named the place.

The question of liquor license. pro-
hibition and local option may forever
prove a bone of contention so long as
mans frailties make him the sport OF
every passing temptation, and few
moralists dare expect the near ap-
proach of the millennium when
strong drink shall cease to stimulate
the desire of large number of ordi-
nary weak mortals. The fact, how
ever, that liquor laws have been en-
acted in all parts of the country TO
regulate mans consumption of all
spirituous drinks is evidence that n
good percentage of our population be-
lieves that the state, county, or town
should be held in a measure respon-
sible for the weak and erring. If we
take prohibition in its most liberal in
depreciation. we find that nearly half
the population of the United States is
living under local option or state pro-
hibition laws regarding the sale of in
toXicating drinks.-Harper's Weekly.

Thirteen Broken Mirr0rs-WoWl

ers in plate mirrors A large con-
signment of French plate. s feet high
by B feet wide, had been received
from Paris for the Crystal Maze In
the Industrial Exposition shortly TO
be held here. There were several hun
dred of these huge mirrors in the
maze, and they have been imported
in large boxes OF twelve each.
Owing to the fact that an uneven
number are required, thirteen instead
of twelve were packed in one box, and
the number "13" in large black figures
was marked on its outside. The other
boxes were all unpacked and the con-
tents found intact, but when the luck
less '13" box was opened every mirror
in it was found shattered into frag-
ments as though it had been subjected
to a heavy blow.
In such large shipment of glass
there is generally number of plates
broken, but the fact that the entire
contents Of box 10, instead of one OF
two here and there, being smashed,
caused not a little comment among
the work people in the neighborhood.

Temperance Revival in England.

London correspondent writes: "Ir-
temperance circles it is generally be-
lieved that the last few months have
seen very notable revival of temper
ance enthusiasm in this country. The
reason assigned for it is that recently
the temperance crusade has been car
ried on more than ever on religious
lines. Churches and chapels of all de-
nominations have been joining hearth
ly in temperance work, and while the
old-fashioned teetotal orator of the
emotional type is less frequently
heard, the appeals made by powerful
and thoughtful men, who are admit
teddy no faddists. are making a deep
impression. There are fewer sensa-
tional meetings and few pledges re-
corded-but the growth of indignation
against the power of the liquor traffic
and the increasing degradation and
misery that it is producing, are more
and more manifest
