FROM ONE
DANGER TO
ANOTHER
Bachelor Judge MarvsIs At
Candidate for Matrim0ny's
Nerve After Escaping Explosion

New York, Nov i4.--After escaping with
his life from the naval explosion on Iona
Island. Jacob q. Newell. an employe at
that place, has entered upon the perils of
matrimony. Newell appeared before JUS
tice Samuel Rodgers at Fishkill Landing
with his intended. Miss Mary w. Mitchell,
1t may be said IN passing that, from
lofty pedestal OF many years or bachelor
dom, Justice Rodgers looks upon all mat
rimonial propositions az vanities
The judge pulled q long face when the
blushing candidate for matrimonial bliss
crowded In upon him.
whats doin'g' said the Judge.
I'VE want to get married." said Mr..
Newell.
"where'd you come fromf" said Judge
Rodgers.
Iona Island" replied Newell. Had a
thrilling escape from the explosion and
am now ready for anything"
Here the Judge remarked aside that the
idea OF man escaping from an explosion
and then rushing into the state OF matri-
mony was too much for him. However.
the Judge secured the necessary witnesses
and then started on on one of those rapid
transit marriage ceremonies for which he
is famous throughout the surrounding
country.
Jacob q. Newell" said the Judge. "dc
you take this girl Mary Mitchell. to be
your lawfully welded wife?''
Yep" replied Jacob. Of Iona Island
Mary willing Mitchell, do you ac--
yep" answered Mary. before the Judge
had half finished the sentence.
Hold on" said the magistrate, give
me time 70 get the words OUT
With this slight interruption, the cere-
mony went through with express speed
until II came to the customary kissing oi
the bride. The Judge balked at this but
the happy bridegroom insisted and the
blushing bride was willing, so the Judge
placed a chaste kiss on her brow. Ths
witnesses were not so backward and did
their part manfully.
Newell handed the Judge dollar as his
fee.
II admire brave men," said Judge Rod
gers as the couple departed. ''and that
fellow is certainly brave. He has Just es'
csped the explosion. he tells me that hs
has forty cents left and now he has taker
unto himself a wife,"

INTRODUCTORY.

II you look close you can always tell
a. humbug. federation says they Cen
orally do most OF their flying I'm the dark.
and consequently its hard % tell them
from other insects" But I tell him that
nature never made any provisions for
dark. and. therefore. It's easy enough to
tell them even In twilight. unless you shut
your eyes. But that's the trouble. Most
folks shut their eyes and then talk about
what they cant see. Well, such folks
want their pet notions catered TO, and
they become an easy prey TO every kind
OF a sham manufacturer. from an Israelite
peddler to a smooth-tongued scientist.
who tells you the ''sun Is made of bitum-
inous coal" and that the moon was com
posed Of the same material, but now its
nothing but coke" and MS they are anx-
ious to believe he's telling the truth, they
shut their eyes and ears and believe the
whole story. because he claims to be an
honorable representative OF Science"
Well, it's my notion there's a greater
swarm Of humbugs buzzing round In
the name OF science than any other thing
that know OF. I've come 10 the conclu-
sion at any rate that wherever there =
anything new brought out that's got
the name of science hitched on 20 IT, I'm
agoin' to give 1t pretty close examl-
nation before put IL down as goods
that'll wash and keep the color.
When you've discovered the shape oi
one humbug you don't want to calkerlats
that you can tell tho whole swarm b,
that one. for they don't resemble each
other any more than a pea-pod does a
cocoanut
First they'll buzz round IN the name o
''creeds' and religion" then YOU car
hear one h,trnmng as sweet and tune,
ful az can be in the name of the so
ciety."
Then there's another that comes trump
eting round as loud as a thunder storm
That's political insect Doesn't do .nucf
harm. but Is dreadful annoying. Anyhod,
can tell this one by the sound.
There's no sham 10 genuine piety, but

Easter Was Observed at the
Churches in Fitting Manner

that impressive character which dis
tinguishes the Romish church at the
Easter season. Flowers were dis
posed about the altar in the greatest
profusion. adding color and beauty to
the scene The services were of the
most solemn kind and were conducted
by Rev. Father Chrysostom. pastor of
St. Michaels congregation. The
services We're attended by many wor-
shippers notwithstanding the in
clemency of the weather.
The prisoners of the penitentiary
were afforded an opportunity to enjoy
a special Easter service at the chapel
of that institution, where Chaplain
Lucas addressed the convicts for the
first time since his appointment to his
present official position. The chapel
WAS handsomely decorated for the oc-
casion and special musical program

of visitors present at the service.
There was no special Easter proc
gram at the Cumberland Presbyterian
church last Sunday, both the morning
and evening services being in charge
of Mrs. brennan of Pueblo, a former
missionary in Japan, who delivered
two very interesting discourses on the
results of Christian evsngelization in
the Far East Mrs brennan lived in
Japan for many years and Is thor
oughly familiar with the religious
end sociological conditions of the peo-
pie of the Orient
The First Baptist church was about
the only religious organization in
town having its own place of worship
that did not commemorate Easter
with some special service last Sunday.
Although Pastor Harl delivered elo-
quent and helpful sermons at 18th the
morning and evening services the
congregation was not so large as
usual. due TO the snowstorm, and,
possibly, to some extent, to the fact
that there was no special Easter SER
vice.
