This true story" comes from Water
vile. 1t occurred at meeting of the
Sunday school In one OF the watcrvilIe
churches. Just before tho classes were
to be excused the superintendent asked
IL there was any one present that
would like to make any remarks or ask
any questions. All was still for a mo-
ment, and then little tot of i've years
said, I'D like TO speak piece" VERY
well, my little miss; you shall speak a
piece" The little girl walked slowly
down the aisle and, taking position
directly in front OF the altar, made a
neat bow and said:
There was a Jolly wobbin who kept his
head bobbia'
AS he gobbled up big fat worm.
And he said. I've eat forty-two brothers
and n half dozen others,
And. golly. how 1t tickles when they
squirm!"
The little girl bowed and, amid laugh
ter and applause. returned to n seat
beside her mother.-Lewiston Journal.

They All Took n Part.

The Congregationalist says that In a
New England city recently a Univer-
salist was to be indicted to the pas
torate. At the last moment various
emergencies prevented the appearance
OF the Universalist pastors who had
consented to take the various parts OF
the service, and the local pastors were
drafted In as substitutes. The sermon
was by Congregationalist. the prayer
by Methodist, the right hand of fell
lowship by Baptist, while Unitarian
and a second Congregationalist pas
tor extended the greetings OF the com.
munity. The Episcopal rector sent q
letter of welcome. No Universalist pas
tor was present.

HIS NEW ORDERLY.
Admiral Rodgers and q Replica q
Genial Handy Andy.


Admiral Rodgers lately returned
from China TO the command OF the
Brooklyn navy yard. He always makes
1t point TO select his aids and order
lies from among the officers and men
who appear "well set and well
Croomed.
One day on the China station while
he was inspecting his flagship, the
cruiser Brooklyn, his eye fell upon a
Wen built young man who wore the
uniform OF marine. He was well set
and his uniform was the acme of Clean
Illness. At once the admiral concluded
he had found just the man he wanted
10 act as his orderly and before the day
had passed the marine was assigned to
that task.
But 1t turned out that the admiral
had selected a raw recruit. true son
of Erin, who knew nothing of the sea
or ships. Pretty soon the admiral sum-
moned him and asked:
HAS the mail come on bosrdT'
"Mail?" echoed the orderly, looking
thoughtful. 81 dunno. I'll see, sor."
Fifteen minutes later he placed a
large dish of steamlng oatmeal before
the admiral. SaIuting, he explained,
"'Tis all the male 1 could find on
board. sor. and the cook didn't want
TO give 1t TO me.'
The admiral was so surprised he did
not know what to say. Finally he
told the orderly to take 1t away.
bring my letters, letters, Do you
understands" he repeated.
"Shure, sor do" said the orderly,
rubbing his head In n wandering way.
In half an hour he returned with one
of the small Jacobs ladders" and
placed 1t OH the table before the adj
miral.
"'Tis the only ladder 1 could find,
sor," ne said
The admiral could stand it no longer
and called the executive officer. Then
he learned that his mail had been given
TO the orderly more than an hour be-
fore. So the orderly was summoned
once more and asked what he had done
with the bundle of papers. Immediate
~ he went to one of the small gun
racks and got the package. When ask
ed what he intended to do with 1t he
explained, when had time 1 was GO
ing to open them, and what I did not
want for my own reading L was going
to give to the other fellows"
And now the admiral has mentally
framed this maxim: when you are
looking for an orderly don't always
pick the best looking man until you
have had chance to talk with him.

Now that ladies wear so many jew.

The iarger cities OF Morocco still
nave slave markets, at which auctions
are held twice a week. Girls fetch
from S25 TO $3.50. according TO their
beauty, which Is practically syfscay-
nous with weight. Most OF them come
from the Sudan. The lot OF Moroc-
can slave Is better than that OF many
servants In Europe. Few care to gain
their freedom. Christians are not IL
lowed TO buy slaves. In the eyes OF the
Mohammedans they rank far below
the slaves.

Newgate. happily. is one OF the few
surviving prisons of the olden time,

long and dreary way between these
prisons of the olden time and those of
today, In which punishment is based
on the ideas of public safety and the
cure OF certain moral obliquities, for
which Ii Is held the individual is not

were starting places for the guillotine

to be made starting place for better

Country chnrcb.. s,a-x,nw

G.. t. Nesmith. in the American Jour
nal OF Sociology. published at Chicago.
asserts that in the rural districts of
the country the tendency Is toward
idleness, vulgarity and animality for
lack of social, intellectual and political
aspirations developed by community OF
action. He finds that on this account
the country church is kept alive with
out thought or hope OF increase, a mere
beggar or pensIoner for support.
Among the chief causes are denomina-
tionalism, with its petty strife and
5ealousies, and the tendency OF the am
bilious elements to migrate.

many years ago, TO save the passengers
and the crew of sinking ship. The
old captain was neighbor of my IA
Tiers and friend CT my childhood.
He had upon his wall picture COM
memorative of this rescue. He again
and again told me this wonderful
story. He had been to the far east.
After voyage of many months he was
nearing New York harbor. He was
only two or three days from home.
Suddenly. as he lay in his cabin, a
strong and even imperative command
came to him from on high. lie seemed
TO hear divine voice saying: go back!
Go back! About ship and go backp'
He was not In the least a man given to
vagarles. He shook himself and went
upon the deck. The stars were shining
above. The sea was calm. The wind
was brisk. and the sails Were we'll I'LL

again tried to sleep. Again came that
strange command: Go backl Go back.

Mr. Henshaw left this country to take
up his residence in Hawaii, was at
least sustained In good cause"

SEATs GOING FAST.

A lot Of special scenery for the
Lyceum Stock Company came down on
the Alameda yesterday. The dressing
OF stage is no small factor in the
success Of piece and the new scenery
Tor the Orpheum is calculated to con-
tribute its share.
But while the special scenery had a
smooth trip down. 1t makes a striking
contrast to the stormy sea of troubles
upon which The Private Secretary is
afoat. When man is told who he is
and he knows he is that party his ten
dency is to place his confidence in his
informer, but the innocent, harmless
Private Secretary is politely yet firmly
informed that he is somebody else.
Then he begins to explain that-well
the play must be seen to fully appre-
ciate the comical situations.
The piece is full of clever special
ties and up-to-date topical songs which
furnish much amusing diversion.
The box office opened yesterday
morning and will be open daily from
to l and 2 to Q. A glance at the
plans show that the sale OF seats is
going on apace and good sized house
is even at this advance date, assured.
Tuesday, June 23rd is the opening
night.
