RUM PUNCH AT CHURCH FEAST.

In the little town of Pelham. Mass,
the people of the Methodist church
gave a bean supper in the church sew
eral nights ago, at which, in addition
to the advertised bill of fare of beans
and coffee, there was served most
excellent punch made of milk and good
old cherry rum.
There was larger attendance than
was expected, and the first supply of
milk for the coffee soon ran out. But
one good sister said she had plenty at
home, which she would be pleased to
donate if anybody would go after it.
This the supplying pastor, who is an
Amherst college student, volunteered to
do. Armed with directions as to where
to find the milk, and a large jug to
bring it in. the embryo divine started
on his errand.
Now, it seems the man of the house
was preparing to celebrate his birthday,
and for that purpose had laid in a sup
ply of choice cherry rum.
The student, by mistake or otherwise
took the jug, that was nearly full of
rum, filled it up with milk, and return
ed to the supper.
After the first whiff of the new sup
ply of milk got out no one cared for
coffee. All said Just a cup of milk,
please"
The Pelham cows received unstinted
praise. The bean supper was decided
success, and all reported most en-
joyable time. The members of the w.
C. T. U. did not learn of the terrific
mistake until next day.-From New
Y rk Herald.

Subsequently. however, and before
the contract was awarded Mr.. White
ford came forward with the necessary

announced that the work will be done

TUNNEL. .PlERCES HEART ALPS S

The men for some peculiar reason.
have been entirely free from The III
nesses which ordinarily oyetiaIa
those working 50 faf andergrcuns,
and TO this fact sdne the speed with
which the great work WAS accom-
;plished,
& The tunnel which gins al Brigue,
Switzerland; and ends at lsela. Italy,
has trough to the fore In lis con
struction some of The finest engineer
Ing plans extant THE tunnel from
Isela to the very heart Of the noiin-
tain through which 1t passes has a
rather steep up-grade 10 allow for
thorough drainage. and keep tho
bore in good sanitary condition.
There is another grade from tho
center 70 iBrigue.
When the extreme heat was en-
countered. during the progress Of
the work in addition TO the flaming
scheme another equally lngenicus
scheme was hit upon This was to|
carry water, Icy cold, from the Rhone
Glacier, not far distant and spray
the walls OF the bore. Al iirst iron
pipes were used but these became
hot and took away considerable Of tie
benefit that Il was hoped would be
derlyed. The iron pipes, ten miles
OF pipe In all, were then taken out
and wooden pipes non.conductors Of
4 ;Iheat were put III and the problem
was solved.
The tunnel derives lts name from
\ the Ssimpton pass, constructed by Ma
\ poleon Hi 1907. This pass. which is
sliorty miles, Is composed OF rnasnitl-
ss|eent grades small tunnels and st,n;
i dy bridges, and is today used as 8
