TRUE FRIEND OF BUNS"
Evangelist Who Devoted His Life to
Men of His Former
Station.

A very good proportion of men are
"bums." Why, comes within that
huge question of the mystery of souls
Some, no doubt. are born buns; some
acquire bumness and others have it
thrust upon them, says The Reader.
In civilization as commercial. indi-
vidualistic and aggressive as our own,
the last class is a large and pitiable
one. But perhaps any bum is pitiable
-pitiable because of deficient will or
energy, inherited appetite or feeble
cerebration, wasted strength in child
hood or a luckless beginning. But no
man. however consummate his bum
ness, likes to be without friends One
may go further and say that no man
deserves to be without friends. One
of those who realized this to superla-
tive degree was the Rev. Samuel Hop
kins Hadley, for 20 years the superin-
tendent of the Jerry McAuley mission
in New York. Mr.. Hadley was, him
self, at one time, bum" though he
came of a good family and had re-
ceived an education. Liquor was the
cause with him, as it is with the
iidJOi pdlL vi dll SuCH
But hu was saved by a revelation of
Divine power and kindness, or, in the
language of the old-time Protestant,
he experienced conversion. He re-
formed, and spent his life in helping
beaten and broken men. His impulse
to reformation came while he was in
low saloon. Suddenly, about him, as
about Saul, "a great light shone," and
he knew that God was a fact and His
beneficience available even for the
most abject. His life of unwavering
devotion to the wanderers and drunk
ards. the thieving and despairing, was
evidence to the reality of this vision
My poor buns, My poor bumsi"
was his plant in the days when he
lay facing death.

Big Earrings Now Worn.

Screw earrings of enormous size are
the fad among fashionable women this
season, which only goes to show how
women's ideas change in the matter of
what is modish.
Only short time ago women viewed
with disdain these relics Of barbarism,
as they were called, and would as
soon have worn rings in their noses;
but fashion can work revolutions when
she sets about it.
One of the favorite combinations OF
stones is turquoises and diamonds in
cluster effect. Previously TO going
into mourning woman prominent so
cially wore such a pair, which were
fully one-half inch in diameter, but
were most becoming to her dark,
piquant beauty. New York Sun.

OUR NEW PACIFIC. TRADE.
Great Steamers and Cargoes of the
Present Contrasted with Those
of Early Days.

If you would be impressed by final
proof that the dreamers of yesterday
are the builders of to-day, you should
see one of ]. ]. Hills new steamers
loading for Japan and China and Ma
Mia, and then recall the kind of liners
that were on the Pacific a few years
ago, writes Ralph d. Paine, in Out
ing. The Minnesota and Dakota swal-
lows 10000 tons of cargo, which is the
burden of 500 freight cars. They
carry 5000 passengers when the lists
are full. Their tonnage is $4,000, or
5000 tons greater than any other YES
sci in the Pacific trade And, looking
a little further backward, one finds
that the Minnesota is almost 20 times
larger than the far-famed clipper of
the age of SAIL whose titanic heir she
is to the commerce of the Pacific.
A century ago a Salem bark of only
200 tons "a hundred of her like could
be slowed in the holds of the Mime
sofa or Dakota) made one of the first
voyages around the Horn to the new
northwest coast. She mounted eight
guns and her cargo consisted of broad
cloth, flannel, blankets, powder, mus
kets, watches, tools, beads and looking
glasses" for trading with the painted
natives.
On a recent voyage the Minnesota
carried to the orient 70 locomotives,
more than a hundred railway cars,
10000 kegs of wire nails and half a
million dollars worth of hardware.
machinery, flour and other products
of the mills, the mines, the farms and
the factories that, even from the far
away Atlantic coast, seek new outlets

His TRANSPARENCY"
Tiel. Which Would Not Be the Least
Uniting to President
Roosevelt.

In Bermuda last winter met a
Catholic priest, writes John Bur-
roughs, in Atlantic, who had sat on
the platform at some place III New
England very near the president
while he was speaking, and who said,
"The man had not spoken three MN
utes before l loved him, and had any
one tried to molest him, l could have
torn him to pieces" 1t is the quality
in the man that instantly inspires
such liking as this in strangers that
will, am sure, safeguard him in all
public places.
l once heard him say that he did
not like to be addressed as His Ex-
cellency;" he added laughingly, "They
might just as well call me His Trans
parency, for all 1 care" 1t is this
transparency, this direct, out-and-out,
unequivocal character of him that is
one source of his popularity. The
people do love transparency-al of
them but the politicians.
A friend of his one day took him to
task for some mistake he had made
in one of his appointments.
my dear SIR" replied the president,
"where you know of one mistake l
have made, l know of ten" How such
candor must make the politicians
shiyer!

Old Help Best.

An Englishman who is a large enI-
ployer of labor has been investigating
the arguments of those who say that

tiops becomes at an early age value
less. He has kept a record of all ac-

There is curious thing about Chi

appearance of mature persimmon
