The Dear. Worn Hand.

Few things are capable Of touching
one with a deeper sense of pathos than
the shrunken, blue veined hand of one
who is near and dear. Nothing brings
a sharper pang Of foreboding and
harder lump in the throat than the first
time it strikes us that the gentle hand
that soothed our childish pains and
griefs and has gladly worn away it's
softness and beauty in our service is
thin and withered, with purple veins
that stand out like whipcords when it
lies at rest. Such a hand ought to look
more beautiful to those for whom it has
toiled, whose suffering it has charmed
away, than the fairest hand ever mod
eled by a sculptor

A Pat Reply.

President Mckinley once had an APP
plicant for the post of minister to Bra
zil who brought with him petition
signed by 1000 Chicagoans. 1t seems
that he was a picture Trainer, and as
he went about canvassing for orders
he was in the habit of collecting sigma
lures to his petition. President Nc
Kinley listened respectfully to the APP
plicant, questioned him as to his quail
ifications and finally explained that be-
fore he could give the matter serious
consideration he would have to confer
with the senators and representatives
from Illinois.
'You know that we have to select
big men for these big places" said the
president kindly as he babe his caller
goOdby.

The HeliOtrOpe.

Although the heliotrope is tender
plant, extremely sensitive to cold, it is
one of the best plants for cultivation
indoors. 1t seems to have few diseases
and is usually free from insect enemies,
while with abundant water and sun
shine and sufficient artificial heat it
will bloom all winter long year after
year and is so tenacious of life that
when cut down to a mere stick it
quickly shoots forth luxuriant new
wood. In addition to this the more the
plant is pruned the more luxuriantly it
blossoms. The blossoms should be cut
with a considerable length of the new
wood upon which they grow, and if at
once fully immersed in water and then
placed deep in a we'll filled vase they
remain fresh and odorous for many
days. The plant is Il little difficult for
amateurs to propagate from cuttings,
though with plenty Of water and sun
and some bottom heat the young cut
tings quickly root and prosper.

PRESBYTERIAN BROTHERHOOD
New Organization Proposed by the
General Assembly-Sunday OBJ
SerVanCe.

Des MOines, Ia, May 22.-The Pres
byterian general assembly voted unan-
imously to begin at once the organiza-
ton of mems society under the name
Of presbyterian Brotherhood" whose
purpose shall be to bring the men Of
Presbyterian churches more closely in
to sympathy with the church, and to
bring about spiritual development, fra
ternal relations, demOninatiOnal fealty,
the strengthening of fellowship and
the engagement in works of Christian
usefulness"
A committee has been appointed to
raise 100000 for the churches at San
Francisco damaged by the earthquake
and fire. The report of the committee
on Sunday observance recommended
the adoption Of resolutions expressing
the conviction that the sacred charac-
ter of Sunday must be carefully and
strenuously maintained, even to the
discoura cement of holding funerals on
Sunday, and that church members
should give preference in their pur-
chases to stores that close on Sunday.

JUDGE INVITES
INQUIRY BY BAR
Arthur H. Chetlain, of Chicago,
Yields to Persistent Tublic
Demand.

Chicago May yielding to a per-
sistent and growing public demand
that he either clear himself of charges
rejecting upon his integrity Or resign
from the superior court bench, Judge
Arthur H. Chetlain requested the Chi
cago Bar association to make a
thorough and public investigation into
the scores of allegations that have as
sumed the proportions of scandal.
The jurist's application for an in
quiry touching not only his judicial ac-
lions, but also the floating of his notes
in such a manner that he did not know
whether they would be in the control
of persons who might appear as par
ties to criminal or civil actions before
him, and his connection with wildcat
financial ventures, was made in a let
ter to Charles 2. Abbey, secretary of
the Bar association. That the investi-
CATION will be undertaken and will be
carried out to the fullest extent pos
sible was evidenced by statements
made by officials of the association.

Father of the Weather Bureau.

The father of the weather bureau
service was Increase A. Lapham, a
modest and retired but ripe scholar,
who lived in Milwaukee. He was the
first to note by telegraph the progress
of the wind currents and storms and
to predict their appearance in specified
neighborhoods. On the strength Of a
weather dispatch from Omaha in 1869
or thereabouts he announced the first
storm on Lake Michigan that ever was
heralded twelve hours in advance Of
it's arrival. The first work of the
weather bureau was under his charge
in Chicago. 1t was on the small be-
ginnings of DR.. Lapham that the en-
tire system of the signal service was
based. DR.. Lapham died in 1875.

compelled to take cognizance of the
case. and a prominent senator said that
if Burton does not resign at once a

Miners Pint the Lid On.

Steubenville, o., May 22.-The lid
has been put on Plum Run and Crow
Hollow by the miners union officials,
who desire to keep the miners sober
and orderly. No beer is allowed in
the camps. No attempt will be made
to start the mines for several days.
The miners who have come in and
who conclude to stay will be put to
work cleaning out the mine. Some, it
is said, will not remain, being union
men, who claim it was represented to
them that it was new mine and min
ers could not be secured. The oper-
ators have decided not to evict the
strikers. A meeting and parade of s.
900 miners was held at Smithfeld,
where a train load Of strike-b breaker S
were expected at noon.

CURIOUS FREAK OF THE FIRE,

Burns Home; Leaves the Fences Un-
touched-Wild Animals Scared.
Milwaukee, May PA staff CORE
spondent of The Sentinel who made a
tour of the district in the upper PENN
sula of Michigan covered by the for
est fires in special train. the first
train to go through the district since
the catastrophe, telegraphing to his
paper says that the fire appears to be
practically out in all of the district.
Many curious things happened. One
corpse of his dead babe thirty miles to
Escanaba in his escape from the fire,
went back on the special train and
found his home gone, but the picket
fence surrounding the house I'M
touched. The ashes of his home bad
been blown away by the gale, and the
fence was the only evidence of human
habitatiOn.
A remarkable feature of the fire is
the fact that nearly all the refuge e'
are not disheartaned, but are deter
mined to return and begin over.
They have only the clothes they wear,
but say this is the fortune of the from.
tiersman, and that if their homes are
lost at least the fire has cleared tie
land for them. and this much labor is
saved.
VIM. Wells, general superintendent Of
the Escanaba and Lake Superior road,
said: THE losses will not be as heavy
as | had anticipated, but they will be
serious, nevertheless. The wOodsmen
throughout the region have done noble
work, and | cannot speak too highly Of
their efforts. | had rather an exciting
time of it at Cornell. | had taken a
relief train out there and the moment
the train arrived men, women and chill
dren made q rush for it and deserted
their efforts to check the fire.
''There was almost riot. The men
and women almost StOrmed the train,
but | told them that it was either save
the town or let the train burn up with
it. When they saw [ meant it they
went back to work and the town was
practically saved; only half a dozen
houses We're burned 90 1t goes to show
under what strain the fires were
fought"
The fire drove all the wild animals
out of the woods and many of them
took shelter on the right of way of the
road, where the fire usually was
checked.

1t is in this district that 1000 or
