walked THE CONGREGATION.
Parson Adams Methods Were Visor-
Gus and Productive.

Gus and Productive.
Many stories are told of the way
in which certain Parson Adams Of
Lunenburg, well known in the first
half of the last century, attended
to matters which he decided were
in need of summary treatment. On
one or two occasions at least his
action was not limited to his own
parish. One amusing instance of
this sort occurred one Sunday when
he exchanged pulpits with friend
who presided over a well to do but
somewhat careless congregation in
neighboring town.
This friend, who was one of the
meekest and most long suffering
men imaginable, told ParSon Adams
with much modification that there
were one or two things about the
church which sadly needed atten-
ton, but that, although he knew
his Pensioners meant well, these
matters seemed to slip their minds
from week to week.
''The window behind the pulpit
is sadly in want of repair" the gen.
tie minister explained. "and so is
the pulpit cushion, in which there
is large hole. mention these
matters so that YOU may be saved
annoyance. ! have learned to stand
at one side to avoid the draft from
the broken window, and refrain
from bringing any force to bear
upon the pulpit cushion"
Parson Adams looked at his
friend indulgently, but made no
rash promises, simply saying that
he had no doubt he should get
along all right.
On mounting to the pulpit in his
friends church the next day, how
ever, he proceeded to electrify the
congregation by taking several
handfuls of rags out of piece bag
which he carried with him and de-
liberately stufing them into the
broken panes of the unsightly win
dow.
Then he proceeded calmly with
the service, but when he began his
sermon it soon became evident that
the pulpit cushion was by no means
to be spared at his hands. In some
way or other the largest hole in the
cushion was worked round until it
was well to the front, and after
that each of three emphatic
thumps from Parson Adams vigor-
Gus hands as he expounded his
ideas sent a shower of feathers
floating down over the heads of the
deacons and their families in the
front pews.
The next Sunday when the gen
tie parson resumed his charge
there were no broken panes in the
window behind him and the pulpit
cushion had a brave new cover

FEATs OF HoRsEMANsHIP.
Same Notable Instances of Speed and
Endurance.

o9HlG iN0I2olc instances OF SPeea ana
Endurance.
So far as the most trustworthy
data show, the most astounding
feat Of long distance riding was ac-
compished by an American rough
rider, one Barbour, who undertook
to proceed from New York to Par
is, via Bering strait and Siberia,
total distance of some $4,000 miles.
BE turned the trick in 1000 days.
In the matter of speed and en-
durance combined, there may be
cited two instances of horseman-
ship during the reigns of Henry
VII. of England and his daughter,
Elizabeth. Wolsey, then royal
chaplain and afterward the great
cardinal, achieved remarkable
feat in journey to the Neither
lands. whittier he went to see En-
peror Macmillan. Leaving London
at 4 in the afternoon, Wolsey tray-
eled by boat to Gravesend, rode
through the night to Dover and,
crossing to Calais, finished his jour
ney on horseback, reaching the en-
peror that same evening. On the
following morning he posted back
to Calais and had reached Rich
mond by sunset. accomplishing the
journey to Holland and back in
something over two days.
The other instance referred to
was that on the occasion of the
death of Queen Elizabeth. 1t was
then that Robert Cary hastily de-
parted from London to carry the
news to the succeeding ruler, James
VI. of Scotland. Riding out of
Whitehall little after 9 o'clock on
a Thursday morning, Cary covered
155 miles. to Doncaster, that same
night. The next day he proceeded
to his home at Witherington. where
he spent some time disposing of
important business. and did not
start for Edinburgh till the next
morning. Had not an accident be-
fallen him he would have reached
the Scottish city by midnight. As
it was, he achieved the entire jour
nev of 400 miles within three days.
Just after the outbreak Of the
Hafir war Sir Harry Smith, carry
ing the news from Cape Town to
Grahamstown, covered 700 miles in
SIX days, riding across a wild and
nearly trackless country.
The Germans are not generally
reputed to be good riders. But sew
eral years ago some officers of the
imperial army accomplished Won
derful feats of horsemanship in
striving for prizes offered BY the
emperor for long distance riding.
Many officers tried to ride from
Berlin to Vienna. distance of 425
miles. The winner was Count
Staremberg, who completed the
long journey in seventy-one hours
and twenty minutes and was
awarded a prize of $4,000 as well
as silver bust of the emperor.
Staremberg's unfortunate horse did
not survive the run.-New York
Tribune.
