LOCK OUT A MINISTER
RESENTED HIS NEEDLE-EYED
 BAN ON SELFISH RICH.
Following Eloquent DenuncIatIon of "5Ioated Flutes" the Vestry at Midnight chiseIs His Name
 From Church slenboard.

P1ttsburg, Pa.-Since he preached the idea that it was more difficult for camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven as a warning to the congregations trust nourfshed millionaires to repent of their ways. there Is some doubt whether the Rev. John Milton Oakesford is still rector or Christ Protestant Episcopal congre- gation, Union avenue, North Side.
 Following it majority of the yes try assembled at the main entrance Of the edifice at midnight After a conference one of the party produced a painters chisel with which he scratched from the board the follow ing words:
 Rector. the Rev. John Milton oakesford, residence No. 6O6 Sher- man avenue, North Side" When this was done a can of black enamel was produced and the space on which the name of MT. Oakesford had stood out in gold paint was given several coats of enamel. Then the party dispersed, the members return ing home. Many wealthy and promi- nent people belong to the congrega- ton.
 Preceding the signboard climax the vestry had appointed a committee of four to carry out their approved plans. First the lock on the front door of the church was so adjusted that it is impossible to open it with the old key. It is fortified against the en- trance of anyone except those ad- mttted by the vestry.
 Next the combination lock of the safe in the vestry was adjusted SO that the safe can be opened by no one except those given the new com bination by the vestry. Later the lock of the rear door of the church also was adjusted.
 It was stated by members of the vestry that the action was taken be- cause the vestry had given formal notice to Rector Oakesford that his services as rector would not be re- Quired

While making a trip through the Hauran district recently the writer's attention was attracted to curious stone which might be described as a '-self-burning limestone" Our party came upon some natives burning 1t and was enabled to see the operation.
 This district Is south of Damascus, east of the upper Jordan. At this place the rock lay in a stratum between or dinary limestone; 1t was of grayish black color, and when freshly broken had an odor of petroleum. Near by were outcrops of what looked like the same material many rods long and 20 to 30 feet thick.
 Quarrying is easily done with prfmi- tive picks and other tools, as the rock is quite soft and full of seams. The stone is broken into small pieces with hammers and piled up against the bank of rock,
 A wall of the same material about two feet high is roughly laid up around the pile on three sides, making pile of small stone eight to ten feet long and nearly as wide, and two feet at the front, rising to nearly three times that height at the back, where 1t lies against the bank.
 In building the wall around the pile small holes are left for draft and in which to start the fire. When the kiln Is ready to burn a few small punches of straw are placed in the holes men toned, lit with a flint and steel and in a short time the whole pile has ig- nited. The men then begin working on a new kiln while the other burns and cools
 After about two hours of burning the stone has all become converted into lime, except the stones in the wall and the very top layer. which are only about half burned. When cool the lime Is air-slacked and sifted to remove any pieces not thoroughly burned. which are thrown into a new pile to be fired again.
 The workmen told us that 1t made very black smoke with a bad odor like kerosene burning. The lime is white and said to make a very strong plas- ter, superior to the ordinary lime burned with brush This stone is so located that, should 1t prove to be of commercial value. 1t could be easily ansDorted.-Consular Reports.

To break" it consists merely in winning the cash allotted to each table at the commencement of play-s 3.200 in the case of a roulette table. 46.000 in that of trente-et-quarante table, where the maximum allowed Is e4S0, dou- ble that permitted at roulette.

 But, then, there still exist so many delusions regarding this, the most famous casino in the world. There are people who believe that a croupier can be bribed to spin a certain num- Der, that ghostly hand is to be seen by the fortunate lowering over a cer- tain table and indicating the manner in which the player shall stake. and that the occupation of a particular room in a hotel near the Casino brings fortune with 1t
 Percentage of Profit Small.
 While the average gambler loses his money at Monte Carlo, there are many who leave winners. He who is content with a reasonable percentage on his capital and is possessed of strong head and a will of equal power has a very fair chance in his fight with the wheels or the cards. The percentage taken by the Casino is small-very small in comparison with the terrible cagnotte of the baccarat table, or the even more impossible tax levied on him who is foolish enough to risk his money on petits chevaux or boule. As a matter of fact, there ID QuAbC oA AA4POA NoLN AdLAOCA OA TVS ular and successful players at Monte Carlo-people who literally live by play.
