Several years ago the colored pop.
ulation OF Texas town was spiritu.
ally aroused by the wonderful preach.
ing OF nine-year old mulatto boy.
The boy preacher. as he was called
had long curls which fell below his
shoulders, and he wore upon all oc.
casions o white robe, the pattern for
which had been revealed to him In a
vision. His appearance appealed 90
strongly 70 the imagination of the
good sisters, that often In awed whis.
pers. they commented upon his re.
markable resemblance to Christ.
Moreover, in their devotion they
followed him wherever he was to
speak. thereby neglecting their own
churches. administer. after preach.
ing several times 10 empty pews,
determined that something must be
done TO recall his scattered flock.
He realized, however, that while bis
people were in such an excited state,
it would require diplomacy to con.
vince them Of the folly of their infat
uation.
Upon the following Sunday ht
opened the subject by acknowledg
ing that he considered the boy a re
markable preacher, and that he en-,
joyed bearing the gospel from the
lips OF child as much as his congre
gatson did. But" he continued
"You ain't satisfied with hearin
him when he breaches in yo' owr
church, but you got "a follow hin
aroun'. An Furthermore. you sis
tabs keep sayin, he looks jes' like
Jesus, looks jes' like Jesus. Now
den, all you folks who done see Je
sus stan up"

Scientific Society. G. j. Maynard
an authority on birds, snake y
what proved 20 be a very timely
topic. What Is . wishbone." To
begin with. the speaker deplored
the lack Of knowledge tha. exists
regarding the structure OF the birds
internally. For example. . said
he 1t is doubtful 10 I've men In ,be
United States know much abou, the
anatomy OF tho common robin. The
ornithologists know all abou. exter.
nal characters. the color, arrange.
ment and number Of the feathers
methods OF flight, habits and the like.
but exceedingly little about ,hs ,n.
ser'ors OF the birds they study. ;"
Oiassifications have been made
largely by externals, when study of
the anatomy must be q very impor.
tant part OF the subject. He bad
himself begun with the anatomy and
more than twenty yearsago, In some
Oh his publications, he dared 10
separate the owls from hawks.
They have been placed In the same
order, and have SO remaiued till
very recently. Nov others have
separated them even more widely
than MIR. Maynard did 80 long aeo
bis deductions were from a knowl-
edge OF the anatomy.
The wishbone is called by scien.
lists the furcula. and is In reality
the union of what are in man the
two separate collar bones. Theseiu
the birds receive the brunt of the
strokes OF the wing that turn she
creature In it's flight. Few realize
the strength OF stroke of the bird :
wing. Ii is said that q swan has
has been known 10 break man :
leg by blow Of its wing, and In
like manner the wing beatings of,he
larger birds are dangerous II they
strike the head or face. II, there
fore. q large bird is In the
habit Of making sudden turns 10
right or left In its fight, 10 must be
fitted with q wishbone competent TO
Withstand the great strain of the
wing stroke on one side, with no
special action on the other side. For
this reason we fad In the eagle and
like birds Of quickly turning flight
q furcula that is q perfect Roman
arch. widely at variance with the
gothic arch, which is the shape of
the wishbone of our common fowls.
The eagles furcula is q solid round.
cd arch, everywhere equally strong,
and not developing those points of
weakness that make our sport of
breaking the wishbone possible.

resulted disastrously for the Union
forces. His captain was an officer
OF the name Ridaeley. and the com.
pany. after q disastrous encounter
with the enemy, started on q lively
retreat.
Il met with Capt. Ridgeley, :"
said Mr.. Mcdowell yesterday, land
almost at the same moment Gen.
Meade came riding down upon us.
Form your men, Captain, shout
ed the general.
"Ridgeley drew bis word. Form
on me, men, said he obedient to the
orders from high authority.
"Ridgeley, a soldier named Mori
arty, and myself were allthere were
to form. AS we huddled together a
shell burst near and Ridgeley ran for
half q mile before stopping.
when he halted he again drew
his sword and shouted: From on
me. men,. Again shell burst and
Ridgeley sprinted for another half
mile TO the rear, still again drawing
bis sword and shouting: From on
me. men.
BY that time Moriarty and I
were exhausted from running.
Form on you,' said I. How can
we do that when you can run faster
