Stclla's Dignity.


"Glenn paid me dandy compliment
last night, mother - one that will
please you, too," said Stella Harding.
''He was talking about the girls in this
block and how disguised the boys
were getting with them. He said the
trouble with the girls round here was
that they had positively no personal
dignity, and he never seemed to take
into account that I lived in the block
myself. But he made up afterward
for forgetting. He said not much,
he guessed, he didn't mean me; that
I was noted for my dignity with all
the fellows, and he'd often heard them
speak of it. What do you say to
thatY' .-.
Mrs. Harding was listening with
motherly satisfaction. 'How did it
happen to occur to him that you
might be applying it to yourself?' she
asked.
II put it to him straight. I just
waited until he stopped for breath,
and then said, We'll, Jimmy, Glenn,
is this SlamT"
"stella, what speech! There's no
dignity about thaty'
"Oh, foot, mammal was the laugh
ing response, made without the slight
est Intention of disrespect. That's
just the way we all talk. Things like
that don't count on dignity one way
or the other-not in our bunch. It's
how you act, don't you know?"-

Neuro Eloouence.

Some years ago one Of Texas widely
known statesmen who is now dead
was passing along a street in Dallas
when an old colored man who had
once belonged to him approached, took
off his hat and passed a hand over his
white wool as he asked: .. >.--
"Marster, gin de old man SO cents"
"Dan, you are robber."
GLOW" asked the astonished darby,
opening his eyes, around which rough
shod age had walked.
"Didn't you see me put my hand in
my pocket?" ,..
eyes, sah."
"Well, you old rascal, you rob me of
the pleasure of giving you money with.
out being asked" &c.,.
The old man received a dollar. Bow
ing almost to the ground, while tears
came out and coursed through the aged
prints around his eyes, he replied:
"Marster, wid-wid such a heart as
you hab and wild Abraham and Isaac
and de Lord on your side I don't see
what can keep you out Of heaven"

FoWlds 5, Wilton !,

Fowlds. June 22.-(Special to
Pioneer. THE baseball nine of
Fowlds met and defeated the fast
Wilton team on the Wilton diamond
Sunday, by score of to 1, taking
just sixty-fve minutes to play the
full nine innings. The game was
featured by the fast, snappy fielding
of the Fowlds team and the phenom-
email pitching of Stafford of Fowlds,
who allowed only three scattered
hits, all of the scratchy order, and
with gilt-edged support, allowed
only one Wilton player to reach
third and score.
Jerome did the receiving, and his
work behind the bat was of high
order, not a stolen base being
made against him.
Fowlds has not lost a game this
season, and the good showing made
in Sundays game insures them of
place with the fastest teams in the
northern part of the state. The
management is DESTROYS of hearing
from some of the fast teams for
games to complete the shedule for
the season.

Foxes ScaIps and Salvation.

Some years ago at a session of the
legislature Of Kentucky an effort to
repeal the law offering bounty on
foxes scalps was made, but was de-
feated by the appeal Of member
from mountainous and sparsely set
tied region. ''Do the gentlemen want
to deprive my constituents and me Of
the benefits Of hearing the gospel
preached?" he demanded, with indig-
nation in his tone and overspreading
his rugged countenance. Eve are all
Methodists up my way, and our
preachers won't come without we can
give 'em chickens, I know. We can't
raise chickens unless the foxes are
killed by somebody, that's sure, and
there amt anybody that can afford to
spend their time hunting foxes and get
nothing to pay for 1t. So, gentlemen,
If you repeal this law you'll be de-
priving my constituents Of the benefit
Of hearing the gospel preached; that's
the way It looks to me!' The law
was not repealed at that session.-Ar-
gonaut.

have grasped the scope and purpose
Of the play the only dramatic repre-
sentation with which it can be COM
pared is the Passion play at Oberam.
mergau. u. ~ 54s
In series Of splendid dramatic pic
lures, drawn. on a vast scale, Miss
Adams will depict the life of the
young peasant girl who delivered
France from the English invaders in
the Fifteenth century. All sides of
the character of the Maid of Orleans
will be !shown-her life in her native
cottage, the visitation of voices that
led her to the saving of her dearly
beloved France, her leadership of the
French forces to victory and her mar
tyrdom. .-.
The performance will be adequately
staged. There will be 1900 active
participants, including about 800 men
in armor on horseback, monks, citi-
Zens of both sexes, mobiles, choir boys,
English and French soldiery. The
great historic figures of the time will
be represented by actors well able to
carry out the Illusion OF reality and
the stage settings and costumes will
show the results Of an immense
amount of historical research. The
play is an English version of Schil-
ler's Joan Of Arc"
Miss Adams has had the co-opera-
ton of Charles Frohman, the we'll
known manager, in her preparations
for the representation of Joan of
Arc" All his resources have been
drawn upon freely for the success of
the play. The purpose of the per-
Torrance is the raising of money to
help in the erection of new building
for the Germanic museum of Harvard
university. Only one performance
will be given. After the play tonight
the company will be dispersed and
the properties shipped to New York.

his solos and was generously
applauded. He was ably assisted

The Mullen Case.

The preliminary hearing of the
Mullen's which was set for 2 O'Clock
at Judge Slocum's office Monday
afternoon was continued by consent
of the parties until July 18th at two
o'clock in the afternoon, and the
defendants released npon bonds
aggregating $4,000, with Frank
Gagnon and Naish McKinnon as
sureties. .
This matter has attracted consid-
cradle attention since proceedings
were first instituted. The Mullen's
were arrested in April for conduct
ing a disorderly house at Nymore.
The house is owned by Frank Gag
non, and has been in operation for a
number of months. The Mullen's
demanded a preliminary hearing,
which was had, and were bound
over to await the action of the grand
jury. The grand jury considered
the matter and made a return of
no bill found.'
Immediately upon the adjourn
ment of the grand jury, County
Attorney McKusick caused the re-
arrest of Mullen and his wife and
the hearing was set, as before stated,
for Monday afternoon, and has been
continued until July 18th.
The place which has been so
Objectionable to the respectable
element in Nymore, occupies the
most conspicuous spot in the village
and is plainly visible from trains
on both railroads. The house has
been undergoing repairs since it
was closed in the month of April,
and we understand that its proprietor
intends to open it in the near future
as a hotel. Il, "

Theater, who was in the front rank
of the entertainers.
AS is always the case with good
German folk, the ladies' of the party
had provided generous supplies of
eatables and when the spread"
was laid for the appeasing of the
appetites of the hungry, Matt Thome
was so moved with happiness that
he at once assembled his double
quartette and broke forth into tune
full melody, the first number being
the ever-popular die Yacht am
Reihan," which always makes the
heart of German descendants swell
with pride.
The double quarette was formed
by John Schmidt, leader; Adolph
Klein, F. E. Brinkman, Frank Silver
sack, Matt Thome, Otto Jansen,
H. F. Schmidt, Louis Werner, with
Frank Rippel added to make good
full measure for the octette. And
those warb'ers never seemed to tire;
they sang both strenuously and
melodiously and were the recipients
of prolonged and sincere applause.
1t was $50 in the evening when
the crowd decided that they had
enough of the very pleasant occasion
and very reluctantly departed for
their homes in the city.

1900 BURIED IN
 ONE LARGE GRAVE

Messina, January "A most impressive funeral ceremony was witnessed near here today when Archbishop Barrigo made his way through the ruins of the city to the cemetery at Mare Crosse and blessed grave 100 feet wide and 30 feet deep, containing 1900 bodies. The dead were piled one on top of the other, and the bodies covered with quick lime. The prelate was followed to the cemetery by large gathering of survivors whose lamentations mingled with the Latin words of the service and the benediction.
 Subsequently the archbishop walked through the ruins and blessed the mill itary hospital, the military college. the barracks and the archbishops house, these wrecked edifices being so many cemeteries. Under them were the corpses of soldiers, students, policemen and monks.
 All the valuables found among the ruins are being taken on board the steamer Duca Di Genoa in the bay.
