How many of US who used to hang on
the spoken and published words of
Phillips Brooks know how he was wont
to write those wonderful sermons OF
his which have made him for all time
one Of the worlds greatest pulpit ora
tors?
During the Advent season of 1889 Dr.
Brooks, by invitation of the rector, the
late DR.. Morgan DIX. for two weeks
preached daily, at noon. at the head of
Wall street, In Trinity church. Those
sermons are traditional In the Wall
street of today. and every day the
famous ediflce WIS jammed With somo
1000 business men, representing all
sorts of religious beliefs and denomina-
tiors. drawn there by the power Of
Phillips Brooks's eloquence.
Towards the end OF this period. when
the whole city was marveling at tho
variety Of the sermons, the fact that
their author did not repeat himself. the
felicity of his Illustrations. and his al
lnost electric swlftness of thought, [
had the good fortune to meet DR.. Brooks
one morning at the rectory of his
brother. the Rev. DR.. Arthur Brooks.
The great preacher WAS wearing q
morning jacket that had seen many
years OF service. Easy carpet slippers
were on his feet, he was as plainly in
different to the nicer matters of dress
as his greeting was cordial and hearty.
Almost naturally the conversation led
up TO the point, and / asked DR.. Brooks
how he prepared his sermons. He hesl-
tated for moment. wondering, appar-
emily, whether it would be worth while
TO explain. Then he said.
"Of course, sermons of the kind that
! have been delivering in Trinity re-
fleet many years experience In intense
thought and possibly some discipline in

HALLEY'S COMET.

Halleys comet. which is now nearing
the earth's orbit with fnconceivablc
speed, will come quite near our globe
In tho spring. But the prospect is not
considered alarming.
According to the schedule the comet
will pass round the sun on the side
opposite the earth In the latter end
of March. While In that part OF space
1t will be invisible to US. Then 1t will
reappcar. On April 20 II will have
reached the point nearest the sun. 1t
Will then be travelling at the rate of
"a million miles a second. On May is,
it is expected 10 pass between the
earth and the sun. and be only 12.0o0.-
COO miles distant from us. At that
time its tail, 1t is supposed, may sweep
the earth.
This. however. is not thought to be
dangerous. Earth Inhabitants may,
perhaps, notice yellowish tint in the
atmosphere. such as was seen In 1861,
when 1t was thought we We're passing
through a comets tail. But who can
tell what new forms of life germs may
be carried In the dust of the comet
from other parts OF endless space?
Who can tell whether some OF them
may not bo transferred to our at
mosphcre? Who can tell whether,
through The visit OF the mysterious
wanderers in space diseases may not
be transplanted from one world system
to another? Who can tell whether
these wonderful stars that appear and
disappear. and that sometimes suffer
shipwreck and are reduced to frag-
ments. are not the ferries and tenders
through which some kind of communl-
cation Is kept up between the worlds
that seems to be separated by an i'm
passable gulf?

KILLING THE SPARROW;

The laws of Utah, like those of many
seher states. place a price upon the
Eggs and the heads of that hated little

winning the case for his client and
says the case is much strosger for him
than before they began taking depo-
sitions. The defendant failed to show

brother Of the man whom they claim
married the mother of Elmer Swepe,
what they said they were going to

says that he had brother who kept a

whom he married. Could 1t be posi-
BILE that this man'a brother conld have

the interest of Elmer Swops is that the
record says that marriage license was

Moss Swope while the deponent says
that his brothers name was net
Peter Moss The attorneys for Elmer
Swepe claim that they will prove by
reputable witnesses that Thoma
Swope told it when he. returned to

stated that he had left the wife who

was asked if he was not afraid that

he remarked that he would not fer the
wife did not know where he was and
that ii she found cut 1t would do hen
ne good as he had married her under
another than his ewn name. The point
of conflict is the vulnerable, t. of Col
Thomas swope during his absence
from Kansas City, Missouri, from 1861
to 1865. The defendant will have te
show that he was somewhere else than
in New Jersey during that time. The
plaintiff claims that he was In New
Jersey buying horses for the war de-
partment and that 1t was at that time
he met Miss Carroll and III arrisd
her. Col. Milton says that he ex-

and as it Is of great magnitude the
court will likely push 1.-THE case to as
speedy trial as possible.
