NOTE HAD PERSONAL FLAVOR.
Directions Considerably Astonished
Good Man In Pulpit.

The minister had just finished a lit.
tie opening talk to the children, pre-
paratory to the morning service, when
Mrs. Berkeley suddenly realized, with
all the agony Of a careful housewife,
that she had forgotten to turn the gas
off from the oven In which she had
left nicely-cooked roast, all ready
Tor the final reheating. Visions of a
ruined dinner and smoky kitchen
reused her to immediate effort, and.
borrowing a pencil from the young
man in front. she scribbled a note.
Just then her husband, an usher in
the church. passed her pew. With a
murmured Hurry she thrust the
note into his hand, and he, with an
understanding nod. turned, passed up
the aisle, and handed the note to the
minister. Mrs. Berkeley saw the act
in speechless horror, and shuddered as
she saw the minister smilingly open
the note and begin to read. But her
expression of dismay was fully equaled
by the look Of amazement and wrath
on the good mans face as he read the
words: Go home and turn off the
gas!"-Lippincott's.

He knew, of course, what he was
talking about, and l held my peace.
When the tip end of Pierpont's

We spoke of the murder OF Prof. La
Grange, Of how it had been concealed
by the authorities in New York at
Drummond's request, of the certainty
who had done it, and of the possible
alertness of the gang.
"Oh, they know that Drummond will
be after them sooner or later" said
Barris; but they don't know that the
mills Of the gods have already begun
to grind. Those smart New York pa
pers builded better than they knew
when their ferret-eyed reporter poked
his red nose into the house on Fifty
eighth street and sneaked off with a
column on his cuffs about the suicide

did it ever strike you how queer it is
that this wonderfully beautiful country
should contain no inhabitants"
It's like those splendid stretches
of pools and rapids which one finds
on every trout river and in which
one never finds fish," suggested Pier
pont.
''Exactly-and heaven alone knows
why said Barris: Il suppose this
country is Stunned by human beings
for the same mysterious reasons"
THE shooting is the better for it, -
observed
''The shooting is good said Barris :;

meadow by the lake? Why, it's
brown with them, That's a wonder,

Then it's supernatural" said Bar
ris; 'Pierpont, do you want to come

Pierpont's handsome face flushed as
he answered slowly: IT'S awfully

Proposed New County.

Grant county is to be candidate
.or recognition by the Legislature. Its
citizens have appealed for a place on
the state map. They wish to make
Ordway a county seat, and declare that

dependent kingdom of farmers who do
not wish to cross river to attend to
their business in the county seat. A
strong lobby has already arrived in
Denver to argue with members on the
advisability of making the county.

industry ON the Potomac have fresh
fish been so scarce as they have been
this fall and winter Ordinarily at
this season The river steamers bring
UP forty fly barrels Of perch, bass,

a half dozen barrels trip, they are

fisheries are also very light, and TO
meet the demand frozen trout and

The gathering Of more than one
thousand Sisters of Charity in St
Patriek's Cathedral, New York, or
Tuesday Of last week for the celebra-
ton of solemn mass was an event Of
certain degree of picturesqueness
as well as historical importance. The
occasion was for the payment OF
honor to the memory of the Ameri-
can foundress of the Order, Mother
Elizabeth Ann Bayley Seton. The
name is familiar to Maryland, for it
was in Baltimore that the work OF
founding the Order took place, in an
humble dwelling now forgotten, and
it was diminishing that the first con-
vent was opened. Originally the
membership was very small, and in
1912 it had increased to only twenty,
while now the Sisters of Charity are
seen and known everywhere. The
benevolent work they have perform
ed could not be estimated; in all
places ia the hospital aud upon the
battlefield white bonnet and the
dark habit are The symbols of succor
and consolation.
Rather strangely, when we recall
that most Of the women who have
founded sisterhoods in the Catholic
Church devoted themselves to the
TASK from early youth, Mother Seton
was well advanced in life before she
undertook the foundation of her sis
terhcod and, not merely that, but
was a widow Her married life last
ed quite number Of years, when
she was not even a member Of the
Church which now so elaboratelt
honofs her memory She became q
Catholic, however, and some Of her
relatives also later joined the same
communion, among the rest the illus
trians Archbishop Bayley Of BaIti-
more City.
