MINISTER'S ERRORS.

We have heard some very laugh
able statements by ministers, and
we do not for a moment doubt
that they are also made by other
public speakers, says the Kansas
City Journal. One of these cler-
lcal brethren, at the close of a
solemn service, said, in doleful
voice; "Now let US pronounce the
doxology and will sing the bene.
diction." He had an intuition that
something was wrong in his an.
nouncement, and an effort to cor
rect 1t resulted in the following !:
"No. L mean | will sing the ben.
ediction and we will pronounce
the doxology."
Another clergyman, who had
been discoursing NOSE eloquent.
ly on idOlatry, surprised his au-
dience by saying: "Bow not thine
eye to- a needle" when he meant
to say, "Bow not thy knee to an
idol" =" Another caused a smile
throughout the entire audience
by repeating the we'll known
verse, "Behold the fig tree, how
it withereth away" in the follow.
ing manner: "Behold the wing
tree, how it fithereth away"
The slips of the type are, how.
ever, more numerous and laugh
ter provoking than those of the
tongue, causing many an editor
and correspondent sorrow, be.
cause or the carelessness or ob.
tuseness of all Knowing compos-
ltors. The writer once had oc.
casIon to mention the fact that a
certain lecturer had delivered his
Grafton on "Saul of Tarsus." I'm
agine his CONSERVATION, after the
entire edition of the paper had
been run off, on seeing the state.
ment that the man had lectured
on the "Soul of Lazarus. So on
another occasion, in commencing
the boarding house of a brother
minister at one of the summer
resorts, and especially the rea-
sonable rates, he was Mortified to
read "his rats are reasonable. I"
A clergyman once made the
statement IN the pulpit, "What
we want is more hre in our meet.
ings." His remarks were report
ed for the next days paper, aud
instead of "tire'' he found that he
had expressed desire for more
"fun" at the meetings.

JONES CALLED THEM LIARS.
Preachers Opinion Of the Men Who Said They
Always Spoke Kindly.

''eoS"si oPihoh VI INC WeH WHO odiu lney
Always Spoke Kindly.
Sam Jones, the noted revivalist
has habit of speaking his mind
freely on all occasions and does
not fear to offend his hearers if
he thinks he can 'point a moral
or adorn tale" by his remarks.
On one occasion he delivered his
sermon called "Wlves and Hus-
bands" before an immense gath
ering in Birmingham, Alabama.
He dwelt particularly on the beau
ty and utility of mutual forbear
ance between husbands and wives
and then, as though desirous of
showing the rarity of that quality
said
eff there is a woman in this
vast gathering who has never
SAID an unkind word to her hus
band, she will please stand up" "
A woman arose, as though she
had been challenged, and Jones,
beckoning her with both arms,
called out:
"Come here, sister Come
right up here to the platform"
The woman did as hidden and
when she reached the preachers
side was presented to the throng
as the "most beautiful woman in
Birmingham" Jones contlnu-
ing his address, asked any man
who had never spoken an unkind
work to his wife to make himself
known. Promptly arose ten big,
strapping, self-conscious chaps,
who started for the platform
without further bidding and with
an air that suggested the antici.
patton of praise from the preach
er, who, as they neared him said
'That's right my men! Come
right up! l want everybody to
gaze on ten of the most hopeless
liars in the United States.

POPULAR CIVIL WAR SONG.
Origin Of the 0ne.Tlme Favorite, When Johnny
Comes Marching Home.

So"ts "aishhb bome'
One Of the most popular of the
Civil War songs, "When Johnny
Comes Marching Home" came
near beng stlhed at Its birth. 1t
was written by Louis mbert, a
native of Connecticut, and grad
uate Of Yale. AT the outbreak of
the Rebellion he offered his ser.
vices to the Governor of his State
but was rejected on account of
his youth. So he remained at col
lege. His father and brother
were in the northern army
John Lambert, Sr., and John
Lam bert, Jr. A great number of
Connecticut troops were coming
home on furlough and the people
in the town where the Lam berts
lived were making great prepara-
tions for giving the soldiers a
"welcome home" Louis was the
poet of his class at Yale and was
asked to furnish a poem for the
occasion. He wrote "When John.
ny Comes Marching Home"
which the reception committee
considered too undignified for so
important an OCCASION, and the
song was rejected.
Not to be outdone, young Lam.
bert came from New Haven to
his native village with every
member of his class to attend the
reception given the troops on
their home coming. The stu
dents had memorlzed Lambert's
new song, "When Johnny Comes
Marching Home" They had set
it to the music of one of their roll
licking college drinking songs.
What the song lacked in dignity
and patriotic spirit it made up IN
life and action.
AS the soldiers were passing
under the triumphal arch the
students struck up the song
when Johnny Comes Marching
Home" wasn't on the program,
but it made such an lnstantane.
Gus hit that the multltude-sol-
diers and aIl-took up the joyous
strain and kept singing it to the
exclusion of all the rest of the
fine ceremony that had been ar.
ranged. "When Johnny Comes
Marching Home" was all they
wanted. Louis Lambert, the
smart Yankee lad, had won his
point and was the biggest man in
New Britain.
News of the episode spread
rapidly all over the country and
requests for the song commenced
to pour in from all parts of the
north. 1t became one of the most
popular of all the wartime songs
and is today fervently sung and
played.

First to Sing "The Holy City,"

That beautiful sacred song,
"The Holy City," is known the
world over, but few have ever
heard that it was first sung by
Mrs. Florence Maybrick, who
now languishes in an English
prison under a life sent tence for
the murder of her husband, but
whom most Americans believe to
be innocent of the crime. The
song was written by her brother
Michael, who produced 1t one
evening while family party was
on a yachting trip down the Mer.
sey river. Mrs. Maybrick was
an accomplished vocalist and
sang the song at sight, her voice
being thus the first to raise the
inspiring strains Of Jerusalem I.
Jerusalem Sing for the night is
o'er,"

Day of Atonement.

Services in connection with the Jewish
Day of Atonement began at 1880 O'Clock
last night in the Synagogue on Wash
ington street Nearly all the Hebrews
in the city were present, together with
Others who are not of the house OF
Israel. Rabbi Rauch, who conducted
the New Year services, officiated. He
rceiled the ritual and made the invoca-
tons in an impressive manner, and the
congregation entered into the devotion
with spirit. Rabbi Rauch subsequently
delivered a sermon which was listened
TO with close attention by all present.
The speaker selected no special text,
but took for his theme Repentance,
PRAYER and charity" and handled it in
on admirable manner He spoke about
twenty minutes, during which time he
referred to interesting chapters in
Jewish history and brought wildly be-
fore his audience the duties of all, Jews
and Gentiles alike. The discourse was
broad and conservative and appealed to
all his hearers Among other things
the rabbi said we must give and take in
this world. The Jew, wherever his lot
has been cast during the last nineteen
hundred years, has under favorable con-
diticns assimiiated in a measure with
the people among whom he has dwelt.
The descendant of Abraham, for ill.,
stance bias taken the ideas of the Sunday
school from Christians, while the
latter have received the truths they
teach from the Jews.
