It's likely that you haven't saved

Your alcoholic habits disgrace;
You borrow your tobacco. and you num-

And are wholly discredit to your race.
Yet when the seasons afterthought makes

And summer comes to fling a farewell

And earth and sky are blending in a har-

To bring about day of perfect bliss.

others are In a serious condition as the re-
suit Of an expressman's mistake in de-
ltvering embalming fluid for mineral water.
Father Pendergast, who was one OF the
most eloquent and influential priests in
West Virginia, had been in ill-health for a
year. To help him regain his strength his
physicians had ordered that he drink freely
Of certain mineral water. A case OF Il
was directed to be shipped to him.
Yesterday an expressman was sent to the
railway depot for the case OF water. The
expressman found a box containing six
bottles which he thought were filed with
water. Investigation, however, showed
they contained embalming fluid that had
been in the Warrington storage house for
months
After drinking some Of the fluid Father
Pendergast was taken III. He suffered
great agony for four hours and died. With
him last night was Father Dellow of Graf
ton, his assistant. Father Dellow drank a
glass Of the stuff and he, too, is In a critical
condition, but 1t is believed he will re-
cover.
