A spertinn Parson.

The inhibition Of a hunting rector
by his bishop reminds a correspondent
that the Rev. Jack Russell. the IA
nous west country sporting parsOn,
was once cited 20 appear before the
bishop Of Exeter 20 answer charges OF
neglecting his spiritual aud paFOchial
duties, and he was also demonstrated
with for keeping and following n pack
Of hounds. The charges were proved
unfOunded. and Russell refused 10
give up the sport, which he continued
90 pursue almost 90 the day OF his
death In 1888. at the age OF eighty
eight. Besides being an Unsuitable
hunter. he was, as his biOgrapher
pithIly remarks. "a stanch supporter
OF Devonshire wrestlers. an admirable
sparrer and an enthusiastic uphOlder
Of the virtues Of Devonshlre cider and
cream" And In the pulpit he tried to
reform conduct rather than Go ex-
pound doctrine and was a stern de-
nOuncer Of bad language, strong
drink and ''the filthy habit OF smok-
ing."-St. James Gazette.

NEGRO HAS NARROW
ESCAPE FROM DEATH
ACCIDENT OCCURRED At SAW
MILL or FLORIDA LAND co.
Was Head Block Setter and Fell
Distance Of Fourteen Feet While
Carriage Was Running.

Fred Johnson. a negro head block
setter, narrowly escaped death Thurs
day while performing his regular du-
ties az Monttrook
Johnson, who L. known here, was
engaged at the sawmill plant OF the
Florida Land Company. located at
Montbrook, and was In his place on
the carriage when he happened 20 the
accident that nearly cost him his life.
In fact. il Is a miracle how he escap-
ed without being killed.
Like all modern mills, this one Is
located about fourteen feet above the
ground. and the underneath work is
generally filed with a good deal Of
betting and machinery. and IL is
wonder that ne escaped all this with
out meeting sudden death.
Fortunately for the negro. he escap-
ed with a few bruises. except his
right leg being broken just above the
knee.

phire,' she whispered; and 'Oh, what
does he want of you?"
En-" said Chatworth, interrogating
the goldsmith with his monocle. What
do o want?"
The little man finished his long, and,
what had seemed his blind, stare; then
dived into his sleeve. He drew forth a
crumpled thing which seemed to be a
pellet n this he proceeded to unfold.
Flora crept cautiously forward, loath 20
come near, but curious, and saw him
spread out and hold up a roughly tori
triangle OF newspaper. She gave a cry
at sight of it. Across the top in thick
black type ran the figures S2o,0 900.
Chatworth pointed a stern forefinger
What is it?" he said, though by his
tone he knew.
The Chinaman also pointed at it,
but cautious inc apologize. Twenty
Thousand dollar. You likee twenty
thousand dollar?" He waited a mo-
ment. Then, with a glimmer as of re-
turning sight, presented the alternative.
You likee God-little joss-come so?"
And with his finger he traced In the air
a curve of such delicate accuracy that
the Englishman with an exclamation
made a step toward him. But the
Chinaman did not move. Twenty
thousand dollar he stated. 1t sound
ed an impersonal statement, but never.
theless it was quite evident this time
to whom 1t applied.
The Englishman measured off his
words slowly as if to an incomplete un.
Outstanding, which Flora was aware
was all too m~iraculously quick. This
little god, this ring-do you know where
it is? Can you take me to it?"
The goldsmith nodded emphatically
at each word. but when all was said
he only reiterated, Twenty thousand
dollar
Chatworth gave Flora an almost
shamefaced glance, and she saw with
a curious twinge of jealousy that he
was intensely excited. Might as well
have a pot-shot at IT," he said, and sit
ting down ON the edge OF the fountain
and taking out his check book, rested
it on his knee and wrote. Then HI
rose, he held up the filled-in slip before
the Chinaman's eyes.
Here he said, twenty thousand
dollars" He held the paper we'll oui
of the little mans reach. Now" he
challenged, tell me where it is?'
Into the goldsmith's eyes came a
lightning flash of intelligence, such as
Flora remembered to have seen there
when Farrell Wand. leaning on the
dusty counter, had hidden him go and
bring something pretty. He seemed Ia
culver a moment In INDIGESTION. Then
he whipped his hand out of his sleeeve
and held 1t forth palm upward. This
time it was Chatwo-th who cried out.
The thlng that lay on the g~oldsmith's
palm Flora had never seen, though

if he demanded It of the mystery it
self.
He had It. from the very first The
pieces of the puzzle were flashing to-
gether in Flora's mind. THAT first
time Harry left the exhibit he tool il
there"
But the blue sapphire? chatworth
insisted.
Harry Flora whispered, "Harry
gave it up to him.
Gave it up to him. C~hatworth
echoed in scorn,
But she had had an inspiration of
understanding. He had to-for money
to get off with. He gave Clara all he
had so that she would let him get
away. Poor thing" she added In a
lover breath. but Chatworth did MOI
hear her. He had taken the Idol in his
thumb and finger. and, holding it
up in the broadening light,
looked fxedly at it with the passion
ate i%ncredhlity with which one might
hold and look at a friend thought dead
She watched him with her jealous pans
increasing to a greater feeling-a feel
ing of being separated from him by
this jewel which he loved. n which
had grown to seem hateful to her
which had shown itself a breeder OF
all the greedy passions. She came
softly up TO him. and. lifting her hand,
covered the idol
He turned toward her in wonder.

"Ah, you love it too much" she
whispered.
That's unworthy of you he re
preached her. I have loved you
more; and that in spite of what | be-
lieved of you, and what this means to
me. To me this ring is not a pretty
thing seen yesterday. 1t is the symbol
