old man, who had been arguing that
there was no such thing as providence
having the good folks under its special
wing. There was a church and a
saloon standing within two blocks of
each other in our town. One night a
thunderstorm came up and ripped the
Aurch all to pieces and never dam
agAd the saloon a cents worth. Where
do you make out your case of special
providence in that?"
Easy enough" replied the other.
THE saloon was insured. wasn't it?"
"0f course"
And the owner was in business to
stay?"
"Yes."
well, he would have taken his in
surance, had his building been de-
stroyed, and built finer and larger
saloon and made more drunkards than
before"
But the church was badly damaged.
Eyes, know; but by keeping the
minister's salary back three or four
years all necessary repairs could be
made and preaching go on

the conversation. But Policeman Flynn
brought the subject up again and again,
always holding that the course to be
pursued ought to depend entirely on
the circumstances, but that it was,
nevertheless, the duty of policeman
to obey his superior's orders.
1t was month or so later that his
trial came. Shouts and cries attracted
his attention one day, and before he
fully realized what was happening, a
runaway horse attached to a light
wagon was almost upon him. "Ca-atch

but he couldn't get into the street in

however, is man of nerve and daring,

the right way, which is the way pro-
vided for in verbal or written police in

any way is good enough for him.
