Put Trust in the Lord.

Last winter Wnen Invent SOutn
for my health" said Col. l.. S.
Brown, of the Southern railway,
who always has good story in
stock, 81 was told they were GO
ing to try a colored man for
stealing a quantity of raw cotton,
and when the hour arrived l went
up to the court house to hear the
case. The prisoner was man
about forty years of age and he
had elected to plead his own case.
The prosecution proved that the
bag of cotton was found in the
eolored mans cabin and the prop
erty was fully identified as belong
ing TO the owner of compress.
The prisoner asked no questions,
but said he wanted to make a
statement and rest his case 'wid
de Lawd. After q while he was
given an opportunity to speak and
said:
"I was gwlne by dat compress
at 'leben O'Clock last night
when a voice dun called out to
me. "Hold on dar, Abraham
Jones. You was pore man, an
| y jest take long dis bag o. cot
ton to buy yo' some shoes fur
cold weather." Den de bag fell
at my feet an l dun took 1T home
"'Did you recognize the voice?'
said the Judge.
"'No, sab; but l reckon it was
an angel who spoke
Then why did you hide the
bag when you got home!'
I" 'WelI, sab, jest as l got frew
de gat another voice dun told me
dat I'D better hide de cotton for
few days
" Did you recognize that
voice?'
No, sab; but l dun reckon
it was q voice from heben.'
" 'And that's your defence, is
lt.'
/" Yes, sab. I'ze wiIlin' to
rest dis case in de Lawd's hands.
Dc Lawd He dun knows l nebber
stole dat cotton"
1" Hadn't you better have
lawyer!' suggested the Judge, with
something like smile on his
face.
"l reckon not, sab. I'ze been
gwine to church fur de las fo'ty
Vars, an Tze restin'a dis case
right in the hands of de Lswd.'
"Then l shall have to give you
four months in Jail, Abraham
"Huh, what fur!'
" For stealing that cotton
"The prisoner received his SEN
tence without word, seeming to
have expected 1t, and was pre-
sently led away. Two weeks Ia
ter l met him on the streets of a
town fifty miles away and said to
him:
" Abraham, 1 thought you
were in Jail over at SeIma?'
" Yes, sab, ! was,' he repli.
ed.
'And remember you put

ORIGIN OF CHAMPAGNE.

A 6enedietine Monk not the Inventor
Of tho Beverage.
From the Boston. Budget:
The origin Of champagne is rather
mysterious, and the painstaking man
has yet to be found who shall write
its true and authentic history It
was stated recently in newspapers,
French and English, that the wine was
brought to perfection by no less a
person than an old Benedictine monk,
Dom Perignon, who conceived the idea
of blending all the different grapes Of
the champagne district for the p,lr-
pose Of discovering the highest deli
cacy and body. This is true as far as it
goes, but 1t does not make Dom Per.
1gnon the. inventor of champa Rne.
He wandered. about the hills of the
champagne district. In the early part
Of the eighteenth, century, and brought
his botanical and agricultural know1-
edge to, bear on the: vines. Monks 81

"LADY" CHIMNEY SWEEPS.

From the London Daily Telegraph.
For startling innovations, especially
in the woman's sphere of activity, Rus
STA runs America very hard. The
latest move in this direction is chron-
icled in the st. Petersburg Press. The
daring innovator is the widow Of a
chimney sweep who died recently,
leaving half a dozen olive branches,
all of them girls. Necessity, which is
the mother of invention, has now in
spired this thoughtful woman to take
to her husbands calling, and in order
to do the thing thoroughly while she
is about it she means to form a whole
guild Of female sweeps, il the police
grant the needed permission. BY way
Of assistants, or, as Lamb termed them
"unfledged practitioners" she processes
to train up girls between the ages Of
eight and twelve, while the full blown
members of the guild would include
girls and women from fourteen to
thirty-fve. The first appearance Of
these novel sweeps is fixed for August
