Tn. Old New ENGLAND Sabbath.

A description Of the old New Eng
land Sabbath Is calculated to make
restless children of the present day
and possibly some of their elders
thankful they were not born two CEN
turtles ago.
The Sabbath began Saturday after
noon with the going down of the sun.
Sunday morning a horn was loudly
blown to announce the hour of wor-
ship. Service began at 8 o'clock and
lasted for eight hours. with an inter-
mission of one hour for dinner and
conversation. In the earliest days the
congregation sat on rude benches, their
seats being assigned them at town
meeting The service consisted of sew
eral parts. which are chronicled In an
ancient diary as follows:
preliminary prayer or invocation;
chapter of Bible read and expounded;
psalm In meter, read out line by line
by Deacon s.; long prayer on various
matters, one hour and half; sermon
of 100 to $50 pages; at close of service,
baptism; sinners put on trial, confessed
before congregation. Minister c. bowed
right and left, no person stirring till he
had passed down and out of the meet
ing house"

Bascom and His Students,

John Bascom, once president Of the
University of Wisconsin. always had
a keen insight into men, and for much
Of his life college students constituted
mankind for him. Once when he was
n class officer the names of two men
were read by him as absent from
morning prayers. One of them, a pie
fist, stopped at his desk and said:
Professor, when the chapel bell was
ringing l was engaged In prayer and
did not hear It."
you're not excused" responded
John. with contempt In his eye and
In his voice.
Then. calling back the other man,
who was about at the door on his way
out of the room, he saiu to him:
whats your excuseY
II haven't any, sir"
you're excused
He used to have debates In his class
room. At one of them student. whom
Bascom subsequently described as a
"horiating fellow" In the heat Of his
eloquence said, 81 wish that | had
the ability and the time to exhaust
this subject"
"You have the time" said Bascom.-

How Will the World End7

It has always been an intensely In
teresting conjecture to scientists and,
ut the same time. the greater part or
the other intelligent members OF soci-
ETY. as to the way in which our world
will at length come to an end. Many
think that 1t will be through the gradu-
al cooling of the sun, which will even
tually fail to give out sufficient heat
to sustain life on our planet. But an
other-and particularly unpleasant
fate that might befall us Is explained
In a work by Mr. Ellard Gore. Real
danger" says he. sis always to be
feared from the presence of immense
dark bodies, moving unseen In space
vast dead suns. whose collision with
our own would increase Its heat
enormously and thus instantly destroy
the earth" We should not, however,
be without a warning Of our terrible
end. for on entering a radius of 15,000,-
600, 900 miles from the sun the advanc-
ing body would begin to shine with re-
fected light. and fifteen years would
elapse between the time Of the destroy
er's being sighted and its collision
with the sun.
