iority, but good men are divided. Stu dents of municipal reform having long contended that the battle for civic righteousness can be won only through the practical divorcing of local and na- tional politics; the good citizens of every community must learn to stand together. On moral issues, however, they may continue to differ on ques- tions of national policy. It is just here that the children of light have been conspicuously inferior to the children of this world. There are about 14,000, 900 of voters in the United States; of this number it Is estimated that the saloon interests control 100000 or one-sey- enth; the proportion, therefore, of these menacing votes is as one to six. But the votes are about equally divided be- tween the two great national parties, so that the situation has comm only resolv- ed itself into against 3, with the one saloon vote in the middle of the pOliti- cal teeter- board, so effectually threat ening to know it's weight on the one side or other as to secure about what it wanted from both. In a word, the liquor men have commonly controlled primaries and caucuses, seeing to it that men unobjectionable to themselves were nominated on both tickets and then on election day have been content that good people should vote for either candidate they choose, or perchance should throw away their votes upon a third candidate whose only significance was that of unavailing protest.

ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE.
REV. MR. BROWN SPEAKS OF
 LEAGUES VICTORIES

And Its Effectiveness in Powerful
 Sermon Delivered Last Evening at
 the First Methodist Church.
 The Rev Francis T. Brown preach ed in the First Methodist Episcopal church yesterday morning, a special sermon in recognition of the "World's Temperance Sunday" which falls this year on November 26, as that date had already been assigned to the interests of the new City Missionary society, MT. Brown chose the preceding Sunday for the presentation of the subject of tenn perance reform. He spoke on ''The Victories of the Anti-Saloon League" |" His text was, I. John, iii, 8. 'To this end was the Son of God manifested that He might destroy the works of the devil" The speaker said in part:
 T assume that you agree with me that the liquor traffic is a consummate work of the devil and that it is part of those who would follow in the train of the Son of God, to assist Him in de- stroying it. I anticipate here no dis sent from the statement of Archbishop Ireland There is no hope of improv- | ing the liquor traffic There is nothing now to be done but to wipe it out com l pletely." Such being the case the dec laration of men such as Dr. Josiah l Strong, that the anti-saloon league is | the most effective and hopeful move ment in the history of temperance re- form should command the earnest at- Itention of every Christian man. The great organization is now in annual convention in Indianapolis, representa- tives of the Connecticut temperance so- ciety being in attendance as accredited delegates; it is met flushed with splen- did victories for law and righteousness all over the union, and preparing fol yet more sweeping triumphs.

Mr.. BotIey died of starvation, be-
cause the doctors said he had lost the
power OF assimilation of nourishng
food. In this respect his case bore
some. resemblance TO that OF Charles p,
Cashel, OF whom II was said that. be-
sides being one of the richest stock
brokers of his day. he was gifted with
powers Of smell approximating those
OF many dogs.
To this abnormal sense of smell the
doctors attributed his end. for he ram
sacked the markets of the world Tor
perfumes. the names OF which would
be uninteliigible TO the ordinary society
dame. he ruined his extraordinary
faculty at last by his fondness for a
distUlation of Brazilian howers.
These destroyed his sense OF smell.

gas one night before he retired TO his
rest. He was taken from his bed next
morning IN a state of insenslbillty,
from which he never rallied.
NJ. Pierre Lorraine, French Million
aire. lay in bed all night and day and,
ike the Eastern monarchs in the
Arabian Nights" listened 10 trained
story tellers. with whom he surround
ed himself during his waking hours.
Even he, however, was scarcely as
lazy as the Russian Count IvanOvitch,
who made the rafteTs ring with hts
shouts when, by way OF a practical
joke, some of his noble friends intlma-
ted their intention of making him get
up and dress himself
The count was worth eightesn mill
lions of rubles, and was reputed to be
the LATEST man of his time. From the
day of his attaining his majority to
that of his death he never stirred out
OF bed, never read never spoke. never
opened his eyes if he could help it.
Liquid nourishment was ladied out
20 him by retainers and he died at last
Of fright because the emperor Nicholas
announced that he was coming to pay
lvanovitch a visit and would chain
him to a wheelbarrOw and make him
work in the Polish salt mines if he did
not gel out of bed to receive him.
Much more sensible were the self
indulgences of Ellis Wrotham, a
wealthy Northumbrian, who was OF

but declared vehemently that nothing
would ever induce him - be worried
with lessons" IN anything. However,
as sort OF compromise, and being de-
termined to have Omy the best Of
everything" he did not mind paying
the heads of the various professions
enormous fees for enlightenment on
any little point which came into his
mind .-..
Most extraordinary of all was the
little luxury OF A b. Skidmore. who
accumulated wealth in the provisions
trade.
He engaged two Wallets, one to tickle
the crown OF his head and the other the
soles of his feet. He said he liked the
sensation immensely, and when REM
onstrated with by his doctor declared
it TO be ever so much better than mas
sage The case was recorded in the
medical journals of the time as an ex-
ample of a strange development.

NOISES OF AN IRON HOUSE.
It's There One Really Learns How
Rain Can Patter on a Roof,


81 had scarcely thought" said the
middle-aged man, that I should ever
again hear the patter of the rain on the
roof as | heard 1t in my youth. when I
slept in the garnet in the home of my
hoyhood. But now il has been brought
back TO me most vividy.
In the summer Just past / lived for
time in a one-stoTy cabin built OF cor
rusated iron. The little house had q
nice little Veranda across the front and
was very comfortable within, And be-
sides these distinguishing features the
little iron house had some other charac-
teristiC traits, For one il was the most
sensitive house | ever knew 10 changes
Of temperature.
1T was o lovely day on which we
struck the place, As We sat on the YER
srda and looked out through an opening
in the trees in front upon broad and
varied landscape Of water. woods and
mountains and then up az a fleecy sum-
mcr cloud we thanked the good luck that
had landed US there. And then, as that
light cloud floated on across the face of
the sun, We heard coming from behind
us sounds which We realized IN a mo-
ment came from the house Itself. II
was the iron roof. now In shadow of that
sun was withdrawn. And then In mo-
ment, as the clouds passed on, we heard
from the house again the roof expand
ing as the sun once more fell upon it,
II Was the most responsive mouse, by
far, in rainstorm, that l ever slept in.
On the first night we were there we
were awakened by the sound OF what
we thought at first must be buckshot
cataract falling on the head of giant
drum. But In a moment again We re-
aliged' that this was the sound of rain
falling on our corrugated iron roof And
talk about the pattec Of rain drops on
the ola, moss grown shingles. Why on
this roof the rain came down iike-iike
buclshot; like grapeshot, cannon balls:
innumerable, countless, continuous mil
lions of cannon balls pounding with
constant roar"

had little opportunity of Judging of its
merits, as the man for whose private
deiectation the band was brought into
being was chary OF allowing others TO
listen 10 the singing OF which he HIM
self was so fond.
