SCRANTON MsrHooIsr PARSONAGE.

Edlsof pE~oeRtr.sfkT
sinea The time for bafeisfs "
sppFoschlng, sill you kindly ave me
space IN your vsIusbie columns 70
communicate with tbefnf I wish ~ say
10 that one who visited the Methodist
psrsonsse IN yous city isst summer. and
gently relieved The psstor ~ his gold
watch, and vas slyiy and silently
fastening on with this scfibo's trunk
and overcosi, when he pursued him 40
closely that he had TO leave them at the
head ~ the stairs, that, since his
snccessfui venture 10 said parsonae and
other houses In said city, the said pastor
himself has been convicted Of stealing.
and, in consequences, now owns another
gold watch, Just as valuable M the
former one, " not moro 40. Of course
the pastor did not steal the watch; he
| pursued wiser couras-~h he stole the
hearts Of the good people of Scranton.
and the watch just naturally fell into
bis possession. such stealing IL not only
legitimate, being consistent with the
Word that the preacher dispsnses, but
peculiar feature OF ~ II, II enricbes
both parties--the robbed NJ well as tho
robber; for II promotes In them the
| grace Of liberality. The inspired Word
| says: "The liberal soul shall be made
fat,"sProv. XII H,25. The Master says.
at is more blessed TO give than 10
receive Acts TX. %; 81. raul, DOUBT
less, enrIches some churches by robbing
them In order to help other more need y
churches, 2 Cor. xl. =. The pastor was
not gricved for the loss OF his watch
because OF its intrinsic value, but
because II was most precious relic, the
loss Of which could only be compensated
for in the way that the good people of
Scranton elected. Doubtless he will
ever cherish this last watch as most
valuable souvenir after ecclesiastic rule
shall have separated him from said
noble and appreciative people. l would
advise said burglar to desist from his
mercensry "muck-rake" plan OF making
n living, and adopt the Bible method,
which IL the only absolute guarantee
for mans welfare both in this world
and the world to come. But II he will
not heed and his longing for watches,
ct al, moves him to try said parsonage
again, will kindly remind him that
brother Tagert has made It burglar
proof, OF which fact l informed him
through the DEMoCRAT-STAR last year.
And now, dear DEMOCRAT. STAR, In
conclusion and 10 advance, let me thank
you for your courtesy and generosity
in afording me medium through
which to discharge duty to naughty
and deluded member Of my fellowmen.

Report was current Ia telegraphic
circles Saturday morning that the
new battleship Mississippi had been
blown up while at anchor In or near
Guantanamo bay, Santiago province,
Cuba, and that 700 lives had been lost
Further news could not be obtained
failure being due probably, IL was
said, to trouble with the wireless SER
vice. A press respect received later
In the day denied the whole matter,
saying there was no foundation for
the rumor; and that the Mississippi
was quitely and safely at anchor in
the bay above named.

South Mississippi deserves and
should have increased representation
In the State Legislature. The present
apporjionment was made when the
counties composing South Mississippi
were known as "cow countless and
railroads were few aud far between,
while the population was small. The
wonderful growth In population and
business activities during the past
few years should permit OF larger
representation, 1t is matter Of
right,-Meridian Dispatch.
That is what we have been contend
ing for many years, and we hope at
the next meeting Of our Legislature
we will get what we are justly
and legally entieled to In South
Mississippi.
