He Had to Go.

A Chicago medico tells of two ply
sicians in a Wisconsin town, the one
elderly, with long record Of cures,
the other young, with MS record stall
to make. The older doctor, it appears,
was inclined to surrender some Of his
night work to the younger ma1. One
bitter night in winter the veteran
was aroused by two farmers from a
hamlet eight miles away, the wife OF
one of, whom was seriousl yil. The
doctor at once referred taem to his
young colleague, but they refused the
latter's services. '
every WE'LL" replied the doctor,
thinking to put a convincing argu-
ment before them. ''In that case my
fee is $40, payable now.''
Whereupon there ensued a remon-
STRANGE on the part Of the farmers
butt the doctor was obdurate. Finally
one of the men asked the other: =.
"Wel,, what do you think I ought
to dog"
Il think you'd better pay him the

would cost you more. ''-Harper's Is

vened yesterday morning. Judge

She Knew the Breed.

The bishop of Maryland was much
interested in uplift work among the
lowty. and maintained a school for
neglected children in one Of the poor
er quarters Of Baltimore, says the
Sul. Among the pupils was little
girls whose free use Of "swea1
wordsf' indicated lamentable condi-
tions of the home circle. On one OF
the bishops visits to the school the
teacher told him Of this little girl s
persistent use Of profanity, and ask,
ed him to talk to her about it. La
ter Inc good bishop called the child
to him cnd. after putting her at ease
bv a few kind. fatherly words, told
her now very wrong it was for lit
tie Girl to swear, and hoped she would
not do it any more.

An Ideal Jury. q

The difficulty Of impaneing a jury
in the early courts Of Wisconsin may
be seen from a story related by a
lawyer Of that state, afterward a
senator of the United States, accord
ing to the New York Times.
Judge Irwin was on the bench and
a murder trial was pending. G. L.
Long, famiIiarly known as "Lucy''
Long, was uader-sheriff. There was
difficulty in getting a jury that knew
nothing about the facts Of the case
The regular panel had been exhaust
ed and special venire had been IS
sued and was fin nally returned.
"Weli, Mr.. Long, asked the
judge, "have you at last secured a
sufficient number of jurymen who
know nothing about this case?'
eyes, your honor,'' replied Long,
"six Of them know nothing about this
case and the other six know nothing
at ALL"

Some of his adventures were drama

himself, and then he shouted as he
ran:
"Have no fear! Courage! I will as-

"Murder,'' shrieked the voice
again.
Sullivan reached the door and
thundered on it with his fists and
feet. It opened and a neat young
woman appeared.
"What is the trouble that" Flor

smiling quietly, interrupted him.

Rev. W. G. Shaeffer, D. D.

The Savannah papers speak IN
highly eommendatory manner OF DR..
Schaeffer, upon the closing of his
work as pastor Of the Lutheran
Church Of the Ascension. The Press
says: "For fifteen years DIR. Schaef-
fer has been at the head Of the
church with which MS connection IS
soon to cease. During that time he
has made friends with a great many
Savaanahians, who regret to see
him leave the city. He mas served
his church we'll and has been such a
citizen as would be welcomed to any
community. He is popular, not alone
with those Of his own denomination,
but with people Of all classes and OF
all churches. He has been broad
minded on all questions and has TAX
en- an interest IN the affairs Of the
city. He has served with much
pleasure, in an official capacity, the
city of his adoption and he finds
that to break the bonds that bind
him toiSavannah, the municipality, is
almost as ahrd as the breaking Of the
ties that sewers his citizenship. DR..

results of DR.. Schaeffer's work in
Savannah, after a suitable reference
to his valuable services as a men,

accomplished among the Lutherans
of Savannah. When he accepted the
pastorate of the Church Of the AS
cension, fifteen years ago, he found
the church over $1,000 in debt and
without a parsonage. He put his
shoulder to the wheel and immed-
lately started the. work Of building
up the congregation and the church.
His congregation at that time was
about 400. There is now a member
ship of more than 700. The church
is now one of the strongest IN Say

valuable parsonage, and there has
been about $4,000 improvements ad-

Gated in November, 1895, and since
that time has been steadily increas-

which has aided in DR.. Schaeffer's
popularity. Whenever called upon

WITNESS IS MISSING
TRIAL OF WOODS SUIT FOR
$4,000 POSTPONED.
Cans Still Has Chance to Escape Pay
ment of Big Fine on Alien 8
alton Charge.


Claiming that one of his principal wit
nesses had been spirited out of the
State" Carl J. Ahlstedt, counsel for
Walter J. Wood, In the trial of an action
for $500 damages for the alleged aliena-
ton of his wife's affections, secured an
adjournment of the trial before Judge
Adams in the Supreme Court circuit to-
day until tomorrow. The case, in view
of the circumstances, will probably go off
for the term when it Is called up again to-
morrow.
Frank Z. Cans is the defendant in the
action, and the important witness which
Mr.. Ahlstedt had told the court had
been spirited out of the State is Mrs.
Sophie Wagner. She is supposed TO have
been seen last somewhere in the Forest
Hill section, and to have much valuable
knowledge of the alleged alienation OF
affection complained of by Mr.. Wood, who
lives in 80 South Tenth street. The Woods
were married eight or nine years ago.
The action has been up for trial before,
the woman however, was absent then,
as she was today, and a formal nonsuit
was entered. Then the case was put on
the calendar once more, and the result
was the disposition made of 1t today.

COURT PASSES
ON EXPRESS
PROBLEM
Is Regarding LA
biIity Limit on Shipments.
Hatters Brought Suit.

That the stipulation most express re-
ceipts bear, naming $50 as the limit of the
company's liability as a common carrier
in accepting a package for transfer, is
valid, unless objection is made to it at
the time goods are entrusted into the COM
pany's care, is a question about which
there was a lively debate between attor-
neys in the Second District Court today.
The Goodman Hat Company, of Newark,
was suing Adams Express Company for
S29s damages for the tardy delivery of
goods addressed to Horowitz & Co., Of New
York city. Judge Lintott endered the
plaintiff a verdict for $50 on one package
of hats and nominal damages of six cents
on another.
''Unless.'' said the court, 'ft is well es-
tablished that the shipper refused to as
sent to this liability clause of the con-
tract, 1t must be held valid. He should
have been familiar with the contract. He
had shipped goods man. times before. He
should have known that this contract was
like the others, and In shipping goods
valued at more thar the receipt, committed
the express COMPANY to no responsibility,
for 1t was his business to make a different
contract
Testimony of several witnesses showed
that two boxes of hats had been delivered
to the company for transfer to New York
on September II last. They We're delayed
about a month, and at that time it was
asserted had become unreasonable and
could not be sold.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-Eighteen
members of the committee on appro-

tives, who nave been on a tour of i'm
spection of the Panama Canal zone, re-
turned home today on the steamer CO.
Chairman Tawney said the COM
mittee found everything on the canal
progressing in a most satisfactory way.
He believed, however. that as a result
of h inspection the appropriation for
the coming year will be at least s., 000,-
900 less than the s32, 900, 900 asked for
by the estimates.
I'VE visited the canal. spent three days
in the examination of the mechanical
and engineering work, inspected the
quarters, the hospitals and looked into
everything in connection with the serv-
ice In the zone" said Mr.. TawneA 1--WE
found that h employees, clerical, en-
gineers and medical, were paid fully 50
per cent. more than eat home. At the
same time the government furnishes
quarters for them, a room for a single
man and a house for the married man.

new ARKER STUNG
OUTBlD KEkRNY MAN AT
B. AND L. MEETING.
Ho His Sorrow, He Found Out That
Latter Wanted Only $~Soo-Pays
10 7-e Per Cent.

During the selling of money last night
at the meeting of the Peoples Building
and Loan Association of Harrison a scene
was enacted that shows that by over
reaching a person may be "stung.''
A stakeholder from Kearny had bor-
rowed at the last meeting a sum of money
TO improve his home and afterward found
out that $500 more was needed. He made
application for the additional loan and
on hand last night TO bid for 1t. 1t
so happened that a man from this city
was present to borrow money to any
amount, SO that when the first selling
took place both these men began to bid.
The man from this city supposed that
the man from Kearny wanted a large
amount, and the bidding became spirited,
and finally resulted i'll the Newarker win
ming out by bidding the extremely high
figure of 12# per cent. premium.
Shortly after the bidding stopped, one OF
the directors approached the Kearny man
and informed him that the officers had
decided to. give him the additional loan at
the premium at which he had secured his
previous loan. The directors also informed
the Newark man that the yowuid loan him
$1,000 at the figure he bid. 12% per cent.
When the second bidding contest took
place the Newark man noticed that the
Kearny mar was not bidding, and asked
him why.
We'll" said the latter. II have been
given my $500, which was all | wanted, at
the premium of the previous meeting"
Great guns" cried the Newarker, in
broker English, was 1t only $500 you
wantedl And / bidding against you for
thousands until l have to pay a prohibitive
premium! Why, I could nave loaned you
the $500 out of my pocket and saved $3.50.
L have been stung.''
