PARSON AND COPPER.

There is a saying to the effect that some
men are born great, some acquire greatness
and Others have greatness thrust upon them.
If a poor devil should miss either of the
alternatives he is in a hole so far as
greatness is concerned. OF course a man
may take a chance and failing to reach
what is wanted he can do something that
will cause attention. There are some anil
mails that compel attention, and the sort OF
attention most men do not want To re-
ceive attention, however, does not signify
greatness although many are apt to con-
found the two.
Reports coming from a little town named
st. John, in far off Oregon, state that
young and Hedging preacher, finding the
pulpit to be conductive to ennui and seeking
little attention, has volunteered to serve
as a night policeman for the purpose OF en-
forcing a respect for and an obedience OF
the law, without pay. The township trus-
tees accepted the proffered assistance and
now the parson gaily struts the town
clad in a blue uniform with metal star
pinned on his breast and club in his hand
How is that for brotherly love? Fancy
servant of the Prince of Peace swatting
topper on the head with the club and then
pointing to his badge as an emblem of au'
thority We can imagine him chasing the
demi-monde and the burglar fleeing in alarm
at his approach. There is no doubt but
what he would be able to put up good
kind of a scrap if he should be called upon
to do so, as it is said that he is an athletic
young fellow and took a prominent part
in the college games.
70 pump Jesus into man or woman with
a club is an old-fashioned remedy with
Christians for unbelief. I would seem that
the demands of civilization would have
called for better showing, even in Oregon,
but when faith lags there must be some
thing doing. Doubtless this preacher
never thought of the fact that he was keep
ing another man out of a job by serving as
a copper without pay just for the glorious
privilege of disporting himself in a blue
uniform and to be able to carry club as
an emblem of sanctifed authority.
