ODGINGs consisting Of warm, up.

r ODGINGS consisting Of warm, up
per room with straw on the floor;
cooking and serving aceommoda-
u dations, a secondhand, one-burner
oil stove, dry goods box for a
table, few Clipped dishes, and ST pro-
visions-this was the humble beginning
of the practical philanthropy in the
work Of the Union City Mission, which
is today conducting an extensive bust
ness in the st. James hotel, with prop
erty valued at 100000, and all the ap-
purtances of an up-to-date hOstelry.
It was an accidental beginning; that
is to say, the mission practically stun
bled into the work, as the sole purpose
at the beginning was to conduct evan
gelistic meetings. Ten years ago last
Tuesday, various influences at work in
church circles brought together local
pastors and representative laymen who
considered that the church had, during
the latter half Of the century, failed to
keep pace with the world in its appltca-
that it had retained old methods not in
keeping with changes in social and
economic conditions; and that to its
discredit nothing was being done for
the population Of the downtown dis
tricts. They thereupon resolved to
engage i'm united work in those
quarters, which should be done in their
name, be conducted and supported by
the churches.
Store Room Rented.
An empty store room, at 225 Nicollet
avenue, was rented and, nightly, evan
| gelistic meetings were held, each night a
group of workers and pastor from a
| different church conducting The services
| The new movement was launched under
| the direction Of board of directors and
the superintendent, G. M. Stocking, who
gave up a fourishing business in order
to devote himself to the work. Mr.
such things as real, tangible social prob
lens, and that humanity is so construct
ed that physical needs take precedence
of spiritual needs. The prospect OF
feeding, clothing and providing shelter
for multitude dismayed the directors
even as the feeding Of the multitude OF
old dismayed the twelve when the 5000
stood hungry upon the mountain side
but Mr.. Stocking began with the loaves
and fishes he had, and again miracle
was wrought. ss
The work advanced az, by stages, but
/ ings were held. The homeless men out
of work graduated from the warm room
carpeted with straw to Scent cots with
out bedclothes, then to Is and 25-cen1
beds in separate apartments. Finally
the work reached such proportions that
the management was obliged to move
into larger quarters, and in 1896 the
old Casino theater building was rented
for the purpose. In 1895. the, society
known as the Union City Mission. was
reorganized and incorporated and it,
original scope was enlarged to include
lodgings and restaurant, neat and clear
and well taken care of, as nearly as pos
sible at cost prices.

time when she had a husband liv-

not exercised ordinary diligence
in informing herself as to the
whereabouts of such first husband
when she contracted a second
marriage, such second marriage
was not entered into in good faith
in the honest belief that her first
husband was dead, and can not be
upheld under Section 6, chapter
8, article l, of the New York Stat
utes, Vol. 3, and confers on her
no right of pension as widow of
said second husband.

Touraine is as rich in historic in
terest as it is in natural beauties.
The house of Valois had a special
liking for the banks of the Loire,
and the great mobiles of their court
built near the royal residences their
own chateaux-naryels of architec-
tural grace, strength and beauty,
but of which there is not stone
that is not cemented with blood, for
the Valois lived in an atmosphere
Of intrigue, fraud and violence. They
were always being conspired against,
and they met plot with counter plot.
If treason could not be met with
force, a sudden surprise or a stab in
the dark or the malignant skill OF
some Italian chemist laid to rest
forever suspicious which might have
been unfounded. 1t is but fair to
state, however, that this was not
often the case, for the mobiles were
turbulent and ambitious, and when
not engaged in waging war openly
or covertly with their sovereign,
quarrelcd among themselves and led
forth their retainers to surprise or
besiege a Eeighboring castle. On
the battlement of every donjon
there was a Waterman, day and
night, ever on the lookout for the
CLINT of arms in the valley below,
and ready to his hand was q huge
horn, one blast of which would
alarm the garrison and bring them
to the walls. x few feet below the
Waterman there dangled from jut-
