nearer the canal than New York. It
will place America 5000 miles nearer to
Asia than Liverpool and it will make

rom the Jackson Baptist.

From the Jackson Baptist.
I have often wanted to be man,
and have often thought what /
would do If I were man. But
manhood begins with boyhood and
as general thing, what the boy 10
so the man will be. Hence, if I were
a boy would try to be the right
kind of boy in order to make the
right kind of a man. Each boy,
however, is cast in different mo uld
and what is good for one will not do
for all, so each one must judge for
himself what is necessary to make
him the right sort of a man.
II 1 were boy there are a few
things / would try to avoid doing,
and few things / would earnestly
endeavor to do.
I would not be idle There are
many boys who are not lazy and yet
are idle. Letting the golden oppor-
tunities of boyhood slip from them,
unimproved, unappreciated. In
school or out, my boy, have sone-
thing to do, and do it to the extent
of your ability. Because you fall to
be what some other fellow Is, you
need not fail to be what you your
self might be. Live up to your ca
paclty. Remember one talent well
used is better than ten buried.
IfIwere a boy, would have an
aim in what did, and all my read
ling, thinking and work would be
towards getting me profession OF
vocation, work that good men
would respect and God honor. II
would not be to sell whisky, or gam
BILE, or in any way make my money
dishonesty.
Il I would protect my character from
anything base. If were q boy
would not touch stimulants OF any
kind, nor would lie or steal.
. would rely on my integrity ant
! honesty as being of vastly NOR
, value than honor or gold, and whel
my companions sstwitted''me for N.
weakness would not be ashamed 3
. Recommend to them my unstaine'
: character. Hold to your character

silver that are interesting, not only
on account of their intrinsic value and
artistic merit, but on account of their
peculiar use.
The prosecuted Jews of the Middle
Ages were not permitted to share in
the trades and recreations of the ma
tons among whom they lived. Thrown
back on their own resources they be-
came money lenders, and during the
entire week pursued their calling. On
Sunday. the day of rest and recreation,
they played cards with each other. and
as the tearing of paper would have
signified "the breaking of the Sab
bath" they played with silver cards
to- avoid this accident
Cards have been made In the most
diverse materials, silver, leather, pa
per, wood. parchment and cardboard
all have been used In their manufac-
tire.
The majority of the fanciful cards
were of French manufacture, and bear
witness to the versatility and ingen-
uity of French imagination and wit;
for the most part they embody the po-
litical. social and religious questions
of the day.

Levied on the Corpse.

While the dead body of Richard
Brh,sley Sheridan, the playwright. lay
in state in the residence of one of
his old friends in London, some of his
cid time acquaintances called to take
a last look. With them was admitted
a person in deep mourning, who
craved permission to see for the last
time one whom, he said, he had rev.
erently admired. No sooner was the
body exposed to view than the man
produced writ and bailiff's wand
and said: Il arrest this corpse in the
kings name for a debt of $780," Can
ming and Lord Sidmouth, who were
present, each wrote check for ESQ
before the fellow would consent to re-
lease the corpse from pawn.

Fall Millinery.

In millinery for fall and winter wear
the high-crowned hat In the big shape
and the turban In the small shape
are the favorites. In garnitures shad-
ed effects will be much used for the
expensive hats. Long ostrich plumes
are now dyed in patches showing in
one plume perhaps FIVE tones Of the
tame color. They will shade from a
deep Burgundy red through to light
pink. from Havana brown to a pale
champagne tint, from bluet to hya-
cinth blue. The mauve and violet
shadings are particularly rich and eff
fective. A golden Milan straw hat
brought over recently by one OF the
best-dressed women in New York, has
a high quilting around the crown, Of
the rich red Burgundy velvet, and an
ostrich feather shade twenty-seven
inches long CT the pinkish mauve
swept around the hat and down the
hair almost to the shoulder. This was
worn most effectively with mauye

Justice Leo Jacobs of Wellington

Zabriskie az HacAensack this morn

Some time ego Michel Frisco OF
Wellington was arraigned before the
justice by Chief Marshal Chrysteline
on the charge of selling liquor with
out license. Frisco was held under
bail for trial. and the evidence, a
bottle of whisky and bottle OF
brandy. was turned over to the jus
tice.
With number of other cases OF
the same sort the Frisco case came
up to-day. When the court asked
Chrysteline on wat he based the com.
plant. Chrystenne said that he had
turned the evidence over to Justice
Jacobs.
The latter was not in court and an
officer was hastily sent for him. When
Judge Zabriskie asked the justice for
the evidence Jacobs at first replied
that he did not know what had be-
come of it.
Later he admitted that he had suf-
fered from collie Inc same night and
had taken the whisky and brandy

Fashions In Feet.

In Paris the fashion in feet has
changed. The Spanish foot. once the
rage, has now gone out of fashion
and is found fault with for It's thick.
ness. North and South American
feet are looked upon as being nearest
perfection. The shape is generally
rather long in proportion to its width
and the instep is highly arched. How
ever, the excessively pointed toe is be-
ing discarded in Paris, as elsewhere.
and the fashion is actually to wear a
shoe which has the natural shape Of
the foot. The knife blade point has
vanished, not only from walking shoes
and morning top boots but from the
evening slipper.

GOAT ATE BRIDES VEIL.
After Diet Of Grape From DoorbeIls
the Lace and Smilax Were Good.


Miss Amelia Paschinski of East
Twenty-second street, Bayonne, N. j.,
and Adam Weincr, an Industrious
boilermaker, were married at the Po-
fish Catholic church on Friday after
noon. After the ceremony scores of
their friends blocked their way to the
carriage, kissing the bride and hug
ging the bridegroom.
The bride felt several tugs at her
veil, which hung to the ground and
was ornamented with smilax, pinks
and roses. After an unusually severe
tug she turned her head and saw a
venerable billygoat, his mouth full of
veil and smilax and his whiskers wig.
Cling in time to the rapid mastication.
The bride screamed and gathered
up her skirts, fled into the coach. The
goat received few hard kicks but
managed to get away with yard of
smilax and another yard of bridal veil.
It Is believed that this is the same
goat which has stolen crepe from
many door-knobs recently.-New York
