The impending departure by the
Moana of the Rev. Canon Vincent
Howard Kitcat accompanied by Mrs,
Kitcat for New Zealand to take up
new church labors, was the occasion on
Thursday of farewell reception given
in their honor in the old Sunday
School room on the grounds of st.
Andrews Cathedral. English, Ameri-
cans, Hawaiians and Chinese were
present to pay their respects and ex-
press their regrets to Canon and Mrs.
Kitcat, and bid them Godspeed on
their long journey The school room
interior was attractively decorated
with flags, flowers and green's, the en-
signs of England, United States, Ha-
wall and China being displayed. In the
receiving line, which stood before a
green bower in the old pulpit corner,
were Bishop and Mrs. Restarick, Mr..
and Mrs. Solomon Meheula and Rev.
and Mrs. Kong Yin Tet, representing
the various nationalities OF worship
pers Near by was a table on which
was displayed handsome solid silver
tray and a testimonial in old Gothic
and illuminated lettering, praising
Canon Kitcat for his ministry in the
Hawaiian Islands. A silk-knItted
purse made by Sister Beatrice OF the
Priory containing $500 was gift OF
the Episcopalians from all the Islands.
The reception was made pleasurable
by music and the serving of refresh
ments. Among those present were

There Is no reason to suspect that
this voting experiment was made to
secure any particular result, for the

The nearly two-thirds vote for tariff

up of Republicans and the universal
demand that the trusts be regulated

1t was only 700 years ago from the
authorization Of trial by jury in land
disputes in England till private war
was wholly abolished in England, end
the parliament which did this came
into existence 100 years after trial by
jury was authorized. Already the ma
tions have authorized trial by jury in
all controversies Remembering when
wager of battle WAS abolished the
county seats in England were further
from London than the capital of the
nations now are. 1t is hard to escape
from the conclusion that an interna-
tional parliament will come into exist
ence. as England's parliament did.
much more speedily as time for travel
and communication diminishes, and
that this parliament will do in say
100 years under twentieth century con-
ditions what it took the English par
lament 600 years to do under ancient
conditions; but whether this re-forma-
ton according to the nineteenth CEN
tury revelation in political affairs takes
100 or 200 years for its realization 1t

BOUND TO BOTHER BY COURT.
Curious Sentence Imposed by a Judg
in CIicag0.

Curious Sentence Imposed by Judge
in Chicago.
"As long as You live or as long as
your brother lives, you are to devote
yourself to his welfare and comfOis.
If you should marry. your first duty
will be this brother. Nothing must
stand between you and this duty; fail
ing in II, you will be arraigned and
sent to the penitentiary."
This is the remarkable sentence
passed upon William Windt, who, in n
drunken fit, slashed his brother Charles
across the eyes with razor. binding
him for life, writes a Chicago CORE
spondent of the Atlanta Constitution.
The scene In tie courtroom was dra-
matte. The mother Of the two men
and the blind man pleaded with Judge
Brown for leniency. The defendant
himself suggested the penalty. and
after long consideration the judge
agreed 10 the bargain. William Wendt
has given q heavy bond and will re-
port regularly to the court. II he falls
at any time. except through sickness
or accident, to care for the blind man.
the charge which was not stricken
from the books, will be enforced. 1t
is believed the case is without pre-
cedent and meets with the general ap-
pToval of the public.
This sentence. which seems to be
based upon justice, recalls an attempt
made some years ago to enact law
based upon these lines. 1t is proposed,
for instance, that when 4 man had
committed murder, thereby depriving
a woman and children of their protec-
tor. instead of being hanged or I'M
prisoned, the criminal should be put at
work where he could produce the most
money, and this money was to be de-
voted to the support of the family he
had wronged. Incendiaries who had
caused loss to other men were to be
imprisoned, or worked on the roads,
canals, anywhere, In fact, and the pro-
ceeds of their toll used to reimburse
the Inan who had suffered loss. AS
matters now stand the criminal is oc-
casionally punished, but there IS no
recompense fer the victims Of his
crime. The State absorbs the profits
of the prisoners toll, but the widow
and orphans must shift for themselves.
This proposed law found much favor,
but for some reason never explained
1t was not pushed and has dropped out

English as She Is Spelled.

At dinner party in London. Miss
Beatrice Herford was taken down by
an Englishman, whom she discovered
to he a fellow of the Royal Geograph-
ic Society, and who professed to
know by name all the places On the
map Of England. Miss Herford had
long struggled with such names as
Cholmondeley (Chumley). CrichtOn
(Cryton), and the rest, and this struck
her as an opportunity.
"As a geographer, and especially as
a Royal Geographer," she said, you
will be able to tell me where Wrinkle
is"
The Royal Geographer was puzzled.
and asked if she was sure she had
pronounced it properly, and how it
was spelled.
II pronounced it in the most En-
glish way I could" said Miss Herford.

SERMONS WELL PAID FOR.
Curious Bcqucsts for Anniversary Dis

Curious Requests for Anniversary Dis
courses Richly Reward Preacher.
For sermon of ten minutes dura.
ton ESQ must be considered an eX.
ceueht price, and this sun is paid
every year for what is known as the
golden sermon which may be
preached in any church within six
mile radius of the Haberdashers' hall
Many years ago g man named Will
liam Jones died and left large sum
of money TO the Haberdashers' com
pany, stipulating that the interest was
to be given to the preacher of the best
sermon within the radius mentioned
AS this was a somewhat difficult mat
ter to determine it was decided to dis
tribute f250 out of the G400, which the
interest amounted to, among clergy
men Of the east end and the balance
given to the preacher of the golden
sermon" which is never delivered
twice In the same church.
Although this is the highest price
paid to any individual for a sermon
in this country, preaching at the rate
of guinea a minute is anything but
unremunerative. On the anniversary
of the late Queen Victoria's accession
every year sermon is delivered in
Durham cathedral, which must not be
OF more than a quarter of all hours
duration. For this the preacher re
ceives 16 guineas, but there is nothing
to show how the custom originated.
Not many people know the meaning
of the Lion" Thanksgiving sermon,
which is preached in the Church OF
st. Catherine Cree in Leadenhall street
every year. In the seventeenth cen.
tury Sir John Sayer, then lord mayor
Of London, was travelling in the east.
when he had a miraculous escape
from being killed by lion. On his
sermon should be preached every
year, and set aside a sum Of money
the interest on which was TO he given
to the poor while the preacil": re
tanned what he considered n fair plice
for his sermon.
What is probably the largest SUN
paid for a sermon in the world every
year goes into the pockct of some
lucky German preacher and amounts
to f72O. In 1890 wealthy French
baron named Favart, who resided in
Elberfeld. died and bequoa .fed his
riches to the Protestant church there
on condition that it should be invested
and the interest given annually tc
some clergyman chosen haphazard

good deeds. 1t is generally delivered
en- the first Sunday in June after The
usral morning service. and being OF
half an hours duration amounts to
t24 minute.
Although the preacher benefits bu.
little, the sermon prea he'd at st.
Giles church in the city in memory
Of one Charles Langley every year
is very richly endowed. The church
is filled with poor people and among
the congregation the sum of fS40 in

George Z. Moore, Notary Public, and
have sworn and subscribed to written
statements confirming the story of the
awful illness and subsequent cure Of
the little son of Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Bride.
DR.. Lines is particularly emphatic
in his statement. and there does not
now seem to be any room for doubt as
to tie fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
and nothing else. saved the little boy.
He was so bad that he had Epileptic
spells which seized him with increas-
ing frequency. He was semi-paralyzed
in the right side, and his mind was
badly affected.
In their sworn statement, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mcbride say:
''The very day we began to use
Dodd's Kidney Pills our boy had twen-
ty-seven of these Epileptic spells or
fits. In less than week he ceased
having them entirely"

Among the foreign importatiOns re-
ported at the Louisville custom house
a few days ago was consignment Of
snails, but whether for purposes Of
propagation or diet was not stated.
This is the first invoice of the kind
ever brought to Kentucky, and. as it
may mark the beginning Of new in-
dustry, a few words concerning them
may not be inappropriate. Ethnolog-
ically, in the simple language Of sci
ence, the snail Is the common name Of
several genera Of mollusks, and, there
fore, more nearly akin to any oyster
than q quadruped of an untamed spirit.
1t belongs to the classes of mollusks
known as gasteropOda or pterOpoda,
and to the genus helix, from the spiral
form of its shell. 1t Is hermaphro-
dite, having both sexes In one, lays
thirty to one hundred eggs in natural
or artificial holes in moist places, and
has general distribution over the earth,
from the northern limit of tree growth
to Terra del Fuego; from hot and
moist places to an altitude Of 11,OoO
feet. More than 1,5OO species have
been described, some very destructive
to vegetables and others used rs hu.
man food, being, when boiled il milk,
recommended for consumptives. The
edible snail most commonly used as an
article of food is known as the Roman
or vineyard snail, helix pomatia,
large, reddish brown species with paler
bands. They were eaten by the Ro-
mans, who reared them in parks and
fattened them on cooked meat and
flour. They are still eaten in many
countries in Europe, especially during
Lent, being considered as fish. They
have latterly become quite fad at
the dinners Of the smart set in the
East, being eaten as oysters, being
plucked alive from their shells and
swallowed sQuirming.
The snail has figured in literature.
Shakespeare says:
81 can tell why a snail has a house"
"WhyT
"Why. to puts head in."
And again:
"Dromio, thou drone, thou snail, thou
slug, thou sot."-Louisyille Courier
