GETTING AHEAD OF SCANDAL
Peace and Dignity of Congregation Sc cured by Recommendation
 Made to Pastor.

rarson Henderson. an evangelist Of color was caught one bright morning holding the hands of one of tho eve lambs of his congregation, who was very popular young lady, and it creat' ed quite stir among the colored pop ulation, relates writer in Norman B. Mack's Nationa. Monthly. So the par. son was brought up for trial and was questioned by the officers of the church as to what he meant by his action, and this is what he had to say in answer to the question propounded to him: My brudders, you have seen these great pictures, ) suppose, 50 you know dat the great Shepherd am always pictured with a lamb ol his flock in his arms"
 ''Yes. sah, parson, dat am so," ad. mitted Deacon Jones.
 Den, Brudder Jones, wha: am wrong in the shepherd of his flock holding lamb in his arms?"
 This was too much for Hrudder Jones, so he proposed the officers of the church have cali meeting that afternoon. After the point was dis tussed fully the following resolution was adopted:
 Resolved, Dat for the future peace and dignity of the congregation dat the next time Parson Henderson feels called upon to take lamb of his flock in his arms. dat he pick out a yam lamb."

Hundreds of public officials and other
prominent citizens yesterday took a
trip through the old British convict
ship, Success" now lying in the dock
at the foot of Eighteenth street. and
saw reminders of the awful things
which took place on that ship and
other of the British fleet Of ships of
similar character.
The scene was grewsome in many
respects. but IL was inspiring and gave
an illustration of the change of method
in the punishment of those charged
withcrimes Some of the illustrations
given by the lecturers on board. who
explained everything, showed the great
progress made by the penal systems of
the world since that time.
Nothing Too Cruel.

very little upon the condition of the

were cast into the dungeon or the gal

the eyes of the elect, or those who felt
that the plebean were no more than
an insect or an animal upon whose
head any indginity or punishment
might be inhicted-and then the whole
thing was forgotten by those who had
condemned a soul to the punishment
