One of the most striking illustrations
Of this sinking out OF mind of once IA

One clerk was busy throwing mall in

track and heard u terrific crash When
he regaincd consciousness, tho. wreck
presented this chaotic condition: The

There is probably no department Of
the government service in which a
higher standard of devotion to duty
is maintained than i'm this. During a
heavy freshet on the Susuuehanna riy-
err In 1890 all bridges we're swept away
and the railroad tracks along the banks
practically destroyed. -Four mail clerks
remained in their car until the water
rising and flowing through the doors,
compelled them to take to an impro-

this frail craft they put their pouches

doned, with eight feet OF water In the
street at that point. They were almost
exhausted, and their condition was pre-
carious. Finally. however, they were
rescued by boats and taken into houses
through the second story windows.
The letter mail was all intact and in
fairly good condition.
Some time ago the "run" on a west
ern road was "short" clerk because of
sickness. An official of the service hap
pened to be on the train and volunteer
ed his services. For fifteen hours he
stuck to his work at the letter case.
In the journey of more than 500 miles
he had only a sandwich or two for
food and stood on his feet without re-
lief. There are other instances on rec
ord where entire crews have stood to
the work without food for twenty-four
hours.

centuries Jerusalem has suffered from

ducts which will follow the very course
designed by the engineers of Solomon.

DarVyfn,s Comu

A curious attraction at a public
house near Bromley, England. is a sec.
ondhand coffin. 1t was made by the
village carpenter, who frequently made
cases for Darwin's collection. One
day, work being scarce, the carpenter
asked for something to do and was told
by Darwin that he could make a coffin,
which he did. The body of Darwin is
said to have lain in it for two days be-
fore his burial In Westminster abbey
was decided upon. A new coffin was
then provided. and the first passed into
the possession of the carpenter and at
bis death was bought by the publican.

The Money Efrnt.

The managers Of the Royal inf3rmary,
Edinburgh, have been searching their
hearts touching the propriety Of accept
Ing an Offering in the shape of the pro-
ceeds Of concert given by the Sunday
society. The sterner brethren were of
opinion that the Christian rsligion-ap-
parently that OF Noses rather than that
OF the gospels-forbads them to receive
such "unholy gains" even as trustees
for the sick and the poor. However,

Dr. Newman Halls Long Career.
The late DIR. Newman Halls first at.
tempt at outdoor preaching was TO a
company OF hop pickers in his native
town OF Maidstone. His address was
snort and to the point, and so great
was his inherent nervousness ana dif.
ndence that he went unattended bv
any friend. One Of his first regular
sermons as student was preached on
June %, 1883, In the town hall of the
same place. the occasion being the
memorable one of Queen victoria's cor
onation. The text taken for the SER
mon was "The King of kings and Lord
or lords" Newman Hall was one of
the very few ministers who preached
at both the coronation and diamond
Juoiiee services of the late queen, and
on the latter occasion--June 20 1897
he again preached from the same text
with full heart and host OF remem-
brances.-London Chronicle.
