His Gift to the Lord.


Yesterday he wore rose on the lapel
of his coat, and when the plate was
passed he gave a nickel to the Lord.
He had several bills in his pocket and
sundry change, perhaps a dollars
worth, but he hunted about and, find
ing this poor little nickel he laid it on
the plate to aid the Church Militant in
it's fight against the world. the flesh,
and the devil. His silk hat was be-
meath the seat and his gloves and cane
were beside it, and the nickel was on
the plate-the whole nickel. On Satur-
day afternoon he had a gin rickey at
the Queens and his friend had a
fancy drink while the cash register
stamped thirty-five cents on the slip
the boy presented to him. Peeling off
a bill, he handed it to the lad, and gave
him a nickle tip when he brought back
the change.
A nickel for the Lord, and a nickel
for the waiter! And the man had his
shoes polished on Saturday afternoon
and handed out dime without muir
muir. He had shave and paid fifteen
cents with equal alacrity. He took a
box of candies home to his wife. and
paid forty cents for them, and the box
was tied with a dainty bit Of ribbon.
Yes, but he also gave a nickel to the
Lord. Who is the Lord? Who is he?
Why, the man worships him as Creator
of the universe. the one who puts the
stars in order, and by whose immuta-
Bile decree the heavens stand. Yes, ne
does, and he dropped nickel In to
support the Church Militant. And
what is the Church Militant? me
Church Militant is the Church Tri-
umphaint of the great God the man
gave the nickel to. And the man
knew that he was but an atom in space,
and he knew that the Almighty was
without limitations and, knowing this,
he put his hand in his pocket and
picked out nickel ard gave it to the
Lord And the Lord. being gracious
and slow to anger, and knowing our
frame, did not slay the man for the
meanness of his offering, but gives him
this day his daily bread. But the
nickel was ashamed, if the man wasn't.
The nickel hid beneath a quarter that
was given by poorer woman who
washes for living.

And no sane person will deny that the beef trust regulates the prices of meat to the entire American people. Mir.

WEAR LOOSE cLoTHIN IN WIN
 TER -r E. F.-

During the winter one should ab- jure tight shoes and tight clothing of all descriptions if one would avoid ad- dltional suffering from cold.''' pr. Gustave Lippman says: * .t
 Drivers of vehicles often have their feet frostbitten though they have made every precaution of which they may have knowledge against just such contingency arising, and the reason they suffer frostbite is because they have gone to the extreme of wearing socks so thick that the feet are cramp- ed in the shoes, the circulation Is thus retarded and frozen toes under such circumstances are practically inevi- table. Men who, sit still in an exposed place, like teamsters, should never bind the feet at call. The wrappings for warmth ought to be on the outside of the shoes and never drawn tight.
 Even citizen who is not exposed to the inclemency of the weather and who wears a tight shoe only In the evening will suffer severely with cold feet because Of the retarded circula- tion. When the throat is bound tightly cold in the head may develop. and women who lace the waist to an ex- treme degree are in danger of con tracing cold in some part of the body which received only a partial cireula- ton of blood in consequence. All clothing wornuin cold weather should ge loose-not too loose but sufficient ly so to enable the blood to flow nat. urally .and freely, and the chances Of colds and frostbites being contracted will be much reduced when this is at tended to."-St. Louis Globe Demo- crat.

be Sacred-Whnt it stands For.
 Hon. E. J. siattery of South Tram ingham, Mass, spoke on the progress and value of trades unions and the methods of criminal trusts and com. pines before the c. L. U. of this city in Trade council rooms last evening. Mir. Slattery said:
 MT. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
 New Haven Trades council.
 , deem 1t pleasure as we'll as a duty to be here tonight to speak for the progress of trades unions and also call your attention to the illegal con- duct of some of the illegal trusts in their efforts to destroy competition by driving from the market the independ- ent manufacturer who employs union labor. &
 The progress of trades unions during the past twenty-five years cannot be successfully questioned, while their great value to the public in general can best be exemphfied by the examples and deeds of hundreds of manufacturers who employ thousands of union men, and also use the union label on the product of their factories.
 To-day the leading lights of both church and state are discussing both sides of all problems of organized la- bor.
 President Roosevelt has in his recent message to congress conceded the very rights and principles that trades unions have been fighting for since their birth and I have yet to learn of the man prominent in public life, or high in authority on the industrial question, who has taken issue with President Roosevelt on his first recognition and official acknowledgment of the rights and principles of organized labor, and must say that firmly believe that the president will protect the interests of the American people against the inter ests of the criminal combines and trusts. In Massachusetts the people have just elected governor, W. L.. Douglas, by over 35,000 majority, who comes from the very heart of the mass es, and who is in full sympathy with the principles and purposes of well reg ulated trades unions. The evidence of the truth of my statement is that MT. Douglas employs over 2,6o0 people who are all members in good standing of

 A telegram from William J. Bryan was read in the superior court yester- day at the short calendar session, and the case of Bryan against Della A.. Big elow and others was discussed by coun- sel before Judge silas A. Robinson, who presided over the court.
 The case arose on the question of as- signment for trial. It is the case in yolved.
 Bryan has asked for a construction of the will regarding the bequests of ESQ., 900 to himself and Mrs. Bryan for the benefit of certain colleges. Judge Hen " Stoddard, counsel for Mrs. Bennett, has urged that the case be assigned for an early trial, and he urged an assign ment again yesterday.
 The telegram from Bryan was read to show that other engagements might interfere with his being in New Haven next week. ~-....
 Attorney Newton said he was as anx- ious to have the case tried as his broth CT lawyer was. He said if the case was to be heard on the facts it could not go to the supreme court next term. He suggested that Judge Robinson hear counsel on the question whether the fa- nous sealed letter which was thrown out by the supreme court, and other letters relating to the sealed letter, should be admitted as evidence in the ; triaf of the present case for the con- struction of the will. Bryan's counsel contend that these letters shall be re- garded as evidence, while Judge Stod- dard insists that they shall not come in. Judge Robinson decided that he would hear counsel on the question of these letters, although he said it was an un- usual proceeding, and would assign the case for trial next Tuesday. Bryan will not be in New Haven on that day, as MT. Newton said he could not get krre till next Friday.

DISPUTE OVER LEWIS CASE.


 Supplementing the dispute between former Judge Henryi Stoddard and At torney Henry G. Newton over the as- signment of one of the Bennett will cases yesterday morning came another argument between the same law firms on an exactly similar question, Mir. Hewitt this time crossing swords with Mrs. Bennett's senior counsel on the case of 4. Nelson Lewis against Charles H. TrOwbridge, trustee.
 Claim it," cried MT. Hewitt on its call by the clerk. But" he continued, T should like to have it late in the week, as my client, MT. Lewis, has to come on from Philadelphia.
 T am afraid it will have to take its chance earlier" said Judge Robinson. Then I will withdraw my claim," re- piled Mir. Hewitt.
 And I will claim it," announced Judge Stoddard. Philadelphia is only six hours away, and I want the case settled, anyhow"
 And after some argument it was set down as the second case for Wednes- day.
