mind, indiscreet, assistance. News

PASTOR FINDS A MORAL IN
WRECK OF HIS OWN HAPPINESS
Robbed Of Bride By Drowning Accident the Rev. Mr. YOOman Says Was n
tended For His RegnaOlSemn Takes Place Wedding Invitations
On Day Set For Marriage Clergyman Tells Of His Bitter Struggle With Despair

Winthrop, Mass. - Miss Alice G..
Loud, of ROxbury, who was drowned
here three weeks ago, was to have
been married to the Rev. Hiram Vroo-
man, of Providence. Instead of the
wedding invitations that would have
been sent Mr.. Vrooman has gathered
about him his philosophy and issued
something like a sermon, his be-
reavement serving as the text
The essence of his reflections on
the tragic event is that the young
woman persisted, by divine will. in
order that he might be purified by
fire and proceed further upon the
road to regeneration by being given
a perception of his own worldliness.
The statement, or sermon, reads:
To-day was to have been the day
of my marriage to Alice c. Loud.
whose sudden death by drowning oc-
Cured three weeks ago to-day. 1t is
true that from all earthly points of
view this provideDtial occurrence is
altogether inexplicable, but when
spiritually considered there is sufi-
cient explanation to dispel every
doubt of its beneficence
Both practically and ideally Miss
Loud seemed to be bringing to me
the largest measure of personal salts
faction that this world has in store
for any man. She was bringing not
only the most devoted and purest
feminine affection that was ever re-
vealed to me in a woman, but also
that complex of countless physical.
mental and spiritual values which
promised to multiply my usefulness.
At first, upon learning what had
happened, all my ardent love for
her, which had already given me the
rarest happiness that | had ever ex-
perienced, turned las it were, against
me to torture me withvague anXieties
for her and indescribable pity. Fol
lowing this, and second only to it by

way OF contributing to my suffering,
was the despair of personal disap-
pointment. Apparently, l had been
deprived of that one satisfaction
without which nothing else besides
could be satisfying.
"A belief that has not been weak
eued by doubts in the fact of the di-
vine providence, and which has been
inclusive of the Unquestioning con-
viction that what the Lord had done
was for the best and permanent in
terest of every one of us concerned,
has given a certain interior peace
and sense of security, even while the
external or natural affections were
being tortured and tempest torn.
Indeed, the suffering has been
tempered and greatly modified by
these counteracting influences from
within. 1t has seemed to me at
times, and I have permitted myself
to believe, that / was sensible of
work being wrought by the Lord in
my ruling love, causing it to become
little more unselfish than It had
formerly been. Indeed. it is the res
direction of less selfish loves from
more selfish loves in such times as
this that verifies the revelations in
the word of God of immortality. and
confirms the certainty of the resur-
rection Of the beautiful unselfish girl
whom l loved and still continue to
love.
Il am thankful beyond measure
that 1 have experienced not the slight
est feeling of rebellion against the
unalterable fact. My suffering has
been a revelation to me of the great
distance that 1 have yet to go in the
regeneration. / have felt uncon-
cerned whether 1 live or die. / feel
sure that / am suffering less and re-
ceiving greater spiritual blessing
from it than many persons who have
sustained similar loss"

A Truly Modest Poet

A man in America who writes the
best Scotch poetry earns his daily
bread in a composing room in New
York, and for amusement publishes
a newspaper in a suburban city. His
chief PECULIARLY is this: He never
dares publish in his own paper one
of his poems, but allows the latter
to drift around among his friends
until some one takes a fancy to it
and inserts it in Il prominent publ
cation. He then clips it, and re-
publishes it in his paper as an ex-
tract from so-and-sO, with mis- mi
tails signed. This modesty is duly
appreciated IN Y. Press.

Not Present at Meeting Of Creditors at
Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Sept The second
hearing in the bankruptcy case Of
Harry K. Thaw was held before Ref
cree in Bankruptcy w. R. Blair. Two
attorneys, W. O. Boyd of Poughkeep-
sic, N. Y, and A. P. Meyer Of Stone
e Stone, were present
Attorney Boyd asked what had been
done with a view of bringing the
bankrupt to attend the meeting Of his
creditors. Referee Blair informed him
that Attorney Meyer had personally
served notice on Thaw at the jail in
Poughkeepsie.. Attorney Boyd, who
represents H. N. Blaine, proprietor of
a restaurant at Poughkeepsie, then
called Referee Blair's attention to Sec
tion No. Al of the bankruptcy act and
alleged that the absence of Thaw from
the meeting practically amounted to
contempt. He asked the referee to
issue a certificate of the proceedings
so that it might be brought to the at
tention of Judge in the United States
district court who might take proper
action on learning that the bankrupt
had failed to put in an appearance.
Referee Blair stated that he did not
think it was right for petitioner in
bankruptcy to be cited for contempt
of court five minutes after the calling
Of meeting of the creditors, at which
he had been asked to.be present. He
said that he would refuse the certifi-
cate and requested Attorney Boyd to
be sure of each step he took in the
proceedings.

a Cool 1hlaf.

One simmer afternoon an exception
ally well dressed stranger was seen to
enter the front gate Of a house In
wealthy neighborhood. He walked to
the door and tried to open It with q
key. AS ho could not do so he went
around to q window and, pushing It
open, climbed IN through it. II was a
suspicious proceeding, but as the man
was dressed In the height Of fashion
the officer on the beat thought that 1t
was the owner Of the house, who, hav-
ing forgotten his key, had used the
window as his means Of entrance.
However, the officer thought it best to
watch the place for awhile to see If
anything out Of the way might occur.
a short time later, emerging from the
front door, the stranger stopped as IL
some one had spoken to him from
within, and, saying Eyes, Bess, have
my key this time," he lifted his hat
and walked slowly away. Some hours
later, when the real owner Of the house
returned, the policeman learned that his
first suspicious had been correct, for
the well dressed stranger had walked
OF with the jewelry and everything Of
value that he could lay his kid gloved
hands upon.-Chicago Tribune.
