those present worked so industriously on

O'Clock the rooms were as blue with smoke
as ever was the air in the vicinity of

A Talk About Words.

Words lifeless characters on dead
paper, which can, as Novalis beautifully
expresses it, designate God with three
letters and the infinite with as many
syllables.
We say that "a word is the sign of an
idea" but in law words rise from signs
to a higher dignity. They dispose of
property, of liberty of life Sometimes
a whole case depends on the definition
and application of one term. So, on
the meaning attached to one word, such
as sensation" lies the difference be-
tween schools of philosophy.
Knotty problems and keen arguments
often hinge upon a word. The meaning
of "baptize" is rock on which more
than one religious sect has split. Much
was gained by the Romish Church when
she had herself denominated Catholic"
The Confederate President. Jefferson
Davis, always used the term. "war be-
tween the States" saying that the words
civil war" or rebellion" yielded the
principle at stake.
There is a great deal of human nature
in words. In more than one sense it is
by "the words of his mouth" that man
is condemned. What an evidence of our
tendency to procrastination is i'm the
word presently" Its literal meaning
and it is thus that Shakespeare uses it

settled is our habit of putting off that

The following resolutions were unan-
imously adopted by the members of the
Pauline Mission Band:
Whereas, Our Heavenly Father has, in
his wisdom, removed from us the treas
urer of our society, and our beloved lit
tie companion, Frances Howard Russell,
who died on Easter Sunday morning;
therefore,
ResolUed, |. That, while we humbly
submit TO our Fathers will, knowing
that he doeth all things well, we bring
this tribute of affection for the one whom
we all loved so tenderly, and miss so
sorely. She was pure and lovely in char
acter, sweet and gentle in disposition.
Though of modest and retiring nature,
she could always be relied upon to do
more than her share of work in our little
society, and her sweet interest was d
stimulus to others, oftener than she
knew. Our loss is very great, but we
rejoice that she is with Jesus, whom she
loved.
ResolUed, 2. That our deepest, tender
est sympathy goes out to her bereaved
father and mother, and we commit them
unto him, who alone can bring to them
the peace that passeth understanding
ResOlred, g. That a copy of these reso-
lutions be sent to the sorrowing ones,

ct remember a case,'' says an old
soldier, lin which a fellow who was
last to leave the field lived to fight
in a good many battles The night
after Chicamauga Col. Dan McCook's
brigade of the reserve corps fell back
to Rossville Gap, on the Lafayette
road, and went into position on each
side of the gap to cover the main
army, concentrated just inside the
gap. The next day we were on
close lookout for the enemy, and any
thing or any man coming down the
Lafayette road stood a pretty fair
chance of getting shot. There were
900 rebs in front, and we expected
an attack any minute. Late in the
afternoon we saw coming down the
Lafayette road a man severely wound
ed, using an old paling from a fence
as a crutch and leading mule that
seemed wounded in all four legs.
THE boys looked for a time in 81
lent wonder. On came the hobbling
man and the hmping mule. AS the
two came up in line with the Eighty
sixth Illinois regiment, the boys near
the road asked the man where he
came from and what was the situa-
ton at the front, and if he was in
command of the force he was leading.
He made no reply, but hobbled on.

THE OLD HOME.
Kansas In 1855
OId-Timer Tells of Happening
IN That Stete Before the War

BENJAMIN J. Rice of Pasadena, CAL,
struck the firing line" in 1855. A
very warm portion of the line was
then located in Kansas. Those were
the days when the world first began
to hear of Capt. John Brown, whose
devotion to the cause of liberty cost
him his life. Capt. Brown had only
recently Joined his five stalwart sons
in Kansas and he had fallen naturally
into the leadership of the men who
opposed the border ruffians and those
determined to make Kansas a slave
holding state.
In the locality in which Rice lived
was one John Hamilton, or as he was
known, capt. Hamilton" Hamilton
allied himself to those who stood for
good order and freedom, and was con-
sidered one of the most ardent sup
porters of the cause to which Rice
was committed, and on several occa-
sfons had Joined in the raids against
the rufhans. 1t occurred that several
of the settlers, Rice included, fell m
der the ban of the ruffians and they
were obliged to go into hiding. Rice
left his home and slept in a house
several miles away. One night he
was awakened by tumultuous rap
ping at the door and sprang from his
bed, grabbed his gun and demanded
to know what was wanted.

Growth of the y. M. c. a,

Some interesting figures showing
the magnitude of the work of the
Young Mems Christian association are
given in the year book of the asso-
citation which has just been brought
out From 1.476 associations in 1901
the organization has grown to 1875
associations in 1902, while the MEM
bership during the same period of
time has increased from $685. ATT to
1923, 224. Altogether the property of
the association aggregates in value
$22, S03 900, and is represented by 414
handsome buildings, most. of them of
brick and stone But apart from the
work of the Young Mems Christian
association proper important auxiliary
work has been carried on in the rail-
way, army and navy colleges and
colored departments. all of which are
accomplishing much good.

Veteran Tell

"An army in frolicsome mood was
a great spectacle" says a writer in
the Chicago Inter Ocean. There was
no disorder. There was no break in
the ranks. Regiment after regiment
moved forward in regular formation
like well-oiled parts of a great ma
chine, all responsive to the gesture
or 1ow-spoken order of the commander
in front. 1t was. an army ready for
business, but the men were joking
aud laughing and it SO happened they
devoted a good deal of attention to
me. A West Virginian named Zinkie
and myself were left in camp to
bring up the transportation, and in
the performance of duty Zinkie found
tall plug hat of the vintage of 1910
and a collar of the style worn by
Daniel Webster.
HE put on collar and hat with some
other decorations, and, mounting a
mule, announced that he was my or
derby. I was riding little white pony
of a horse, and when we took to the
fields my feet almost touched the
ground. When we started to close up
