Panic AVerted.

4 manic was averted last night in the
first Bapssst Church by the presence OF
mind of the pastor, Rev. DIR. Fisher.
While he was delivering his sermon a
member of the congregation advanced
10 the pulpit and whispered to him,
when Mrs. Fisher, picking IN her child,
walled toward the door. The churct
was densely packed and it was immedl-
a,eIy supposed that fire had broken out
in the church or in dangerous proximity
thereto. At this junclure the pastor
stated that there was fire in the neigh
borhood but the congregation need have
no apprehension, IA /. was square away
from the church. The congregation,
however. continued TO manif st uneasl'
ness aud a stampede seemed inevitable
Dir Fisher demanded that the people
remain seated and earnestly demonstrated
with some men who we're not disposed u
heed his request. Order was finally re-
stored and the pastor continued his ser
mon. The excitement was csused by
burning chimney on ST. Asaph street
Had stampede occurred a terrible DIS
asler would have followed, as the gale
ries would in all probability have col
lapsed crushing many, while the horror

McsfA md Rigging.

Each of the three masts OF all but
very small vessels consists OF num-
Der of sticks one above another, The
heel" of the topmast comes d little
below the head Of the lower mast
and Is secured by cap" a sort or
iron band, and bar called md.
Above the topmast comes the topgal-
liant mast and above that the royal
mast.
The running rigging consists of ropes
used In handling the yards and sails,
and every rope has distinguishing
name. Halyards are ropes used to
hoist yards and sails. Braces are ropes
used to swing the yards around by.
To the beginner the names OF ropes
are apt to be very confusing Old salts
are fond of spinning a yarn about "A
lad who wanted TO go to sea until he
heard that the fore topgallant studding
