INSECTS BREAK UP REVIVAL.
Saints, Sinners and Preacher Are ALI
Put to Flight.

BOSTON. Ga. June IA great re-
vival meeting at the Baptist Church
here was broken up yesterday by the
arming of yellow jackets which had
built nests back of the pulpit.
The services were at high tension. the
preacher being engaged in calling sinners
to the mourners' bench, when the yellow
jackets began TO dart out from their
nests, and sting saints and sinners alike
In few minutes there seemed to be
thousands of the spiteful insects flying
about the church. and darting their sting
ers into the brethren and sisters. The
prea cher was one of the first to be stung
and the pain put a stop to his exhorta-
ton.
The women screamed when struck by
the insects and many of the men said
bad words
Alter standing for the stinging a few
minutes the congregation got into a
panic and bolted from the church, leav-
ing the edifice in possession of the yellow
jackets.
There are 500 men, women and children
in Boston today putting lotions on
"stung" spots.
An effort will be made to destroy the
yellow jackets and resume revival serv-
ices.

GENERAL NEWS GATHERED
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT

The work of removing the engine and
machinery from the old ferry steamer
Lackawanna. which is being wrecked at
Alexandria, Is progressing with consid-
erable rapidity, but 1T is stated that it
will be a month or longer before the
work is completed and the old hull is
ready to be taken to Norfolk where
the purchaser resides. to be rebuilt as
a barge for coal and lumber carrying
between ports on Chesapeake bay and its
tributaries. The hull of the old steam
er is of steel, and is said to be very
strongly built. and will give good serv-
ice as a freighter for many years to
come. The material that has been re-
moved from the heavier side of the old
boat is slowly bringing her back on an
even keel, but she still has list that
makes it difficult to walk across her
decks. The wrecking of the old Lacka-
wanna makes 1t extremely improba Bile
that there will at any time soon be an
other team-carrying steamer placed on
andria, although small steamers may
give special service like that the little

commodation of the men working at

THE vINH IN ROMAN HISTORY.

were wont TO drink it daily; many used it only
as medicine during illness; women were never

ladies were allowed to drink only little pas

stories were told 1t was said for instance, that
the wife Of Ignatius Mecenius was beaten to
death by her husband because she secretly
drank wine and that Romulus had absolVed the
husband 1t was told on the word Of Fabius

Ronoa1 Iadv was condemned by the family
tribunal to die of hunger because she had stolen
from her husband the keys to the Wine cellar.

her husband had drunk more than was good Tor

Few things can appear more curious to q

content seething UP among women at the

common result OF revolution is a recoi into a
more despotic absolutism than any that existed
before the rebellion. It Is possible that such a
result will follow on the present revolt Of wom-
ankind: meantime, coupled with another equally
prominent feature of their sex in the present
time 1t Is certainly Of the most curious or
our social phenomena We have studied 1t as
such with some degree of attention. and we

towering houses with criss-crossed fronts
There are deep dungeons under the Rathhaus,

into which not a ray Of light can enter; and in
one of these dungeons, some five centuries ago,
the men Of Rothenburg placed the burgOmaster
who. more than any other in the long burgo-
uasterial line, gave the city power and wealth
and prosperity. But they charged him with
conspiring with the emperor. and not only gave
him no light but edged their animosity by de-
Iiberately giving him food. 1t is in all a
fiercely dramatic story; for friends who were
still faithful tunnelled to the cell and mady cut
