New News Of Yesterday
WebSter'S Brief But ElO-
quent Response
By Holland.

Il once heard the Rev. DR.. Bellows,
who was himself a very fine orator,
speak of a personal experience he had
when listening to the oratory of Ru-
fus Choate, and, after Choate finish
ed his address, to Daniel Webster, %
said the late Noah Davis to me. Judge
Davis was a warm personal friend of
DR.. Bellows and sometimes spoke of
the clergyman as in many respects
the most consummate master of pull
pit oratory he had ever heard. not
even excepting Henry Ward Beecher
DR.. Bellows told me that Il was his
good fortune to be in Boston at a
time when a great demonstration in
honor of Daniel Webster was being
made. This was shortly after Web
ster delivered his now historic speech
in the Senate chamber at Washington
known as 'Webster's Reply to Hayne.
This speech led to ? description of
Webster commonly adopted at that
time as the Defender of the Consti-
tuition
Boston was very proud Of Webster
and also proud of Rufus Choate. Citi-
zens of Boston subscribed to q fund
with which to purchase a beautiful
vase which was presented to Web
ster as a visible evidence Of the city's
admiration of him.
Rufus Choate was selected to
make the presentation address. DR..
Bellows told me that rever did
Choate so surpass himself as q mas
ter of fiowery, exquisite oratory, in
which imagination was mingled with
almost poetic charm. Everybody lis
tened to Choate entranced. OF course.
all Boston knew that Webster's char
acteristic oratory differed radically
from that which distinguished Rufus
Choate. DR.. Bellows himself wonder
ed whether Webster would match In
eloquence this mastery achievement
OF Rufus Choate. He did not have
long to wonder, for after he had heard
webster he was convinced as every
one around him seemed to he, that
his reply to Choate was true elo-
quence. yet it consisted Of only three
words. The god-like Daniel, facing
Choate for a moment or two, was ST.
lent and then with utmost simplicity
combined with beautiful dignity, he
said, I thank you, and then sal
down. DR.. Bellows told me that IA
Webster had spoken for an hour he
could not have surpassed the effect
which those three words and his
manner of speaking them had upon
that great company"

(The Sunshine Mani

Let me not seek out Of Thee what
can only find in Thee. peace and rest
and JOY and bliss, which abide only in
Thy abiding JOY Lift up my soul
above the weary round Of harrassing
thoughts to Thy eternal Presence.
that there l may breathe freely. there
repose in Thy love. there be at rest
from myself and from all things that
weary me; thence return, arrayed
with Thy peace, to do and bear what
shall please Thee.-E. B. Pusey.
Gratitude is a feeling we may hope
for, but not one we can exact, nor one
we should expect.
Those who are possessed with the
notion of their own Importance, take
everything as if it was their due. They
think of themselves and their rights,
and what they ought to have. till even
a sense of ill-usage arises that the
good conferred has been withheld so
long. Gratitude is essentially the
characteristic of the humble-minded,
Of those who are not prepossessed
with the notion that they deserve
more than any one can give them
who are capable of regarding a ser
vice done them as a free gift, not a
payment or tribute which their own
claims have extorted.-Ibid.

Driven OUT OF PHILA.
JITS' Invade JERSEY
Transportation of Powder
Makers Offers Opportunity
Which They Seize
SEE FIELD EVEN IF
TROLLEY LINE STARTS

PENNSGROVE. n. j., Aug. 20
Driven out of Philadelphia by the ex-
cessive license fees, a number of Jitney
drivers are coming across the river and
taking out automobile licenses in New
Jersey in order to operate along the
river front in Gloucester and Salem
counties in transporting the small armies
of workmen to and from the powder
mills
The small towns and rural communi-
ties afford a good field for the jitneys,
which are hourishing in spite Of the at
tempt to put them out of business by
running special trains for the powder
workers from here to Carney's Point.
Change to the hour shifts at the powder
mills. which makes three shifts a day
and requires many more men, has been
a boon to the jitneys The railroad com
pany has refused to change its schedule
to correspond with the eight-hour shifts,
and at Gibbstown many of the men have
to depend on the iitneys altogether.
Freight traffic, which has made un-
precedented increases within the last
few months, is bringing big revenue to
the railroad companies from the powder
towns. Because of the singletrack sys-
TEN, the large amount OF freight has
presented big problems to- the railroad
officials and the passenger service has
been Of secondary Importance.
The jitney men say that there will
still be a field left for them after pro-
posed trolley routes are established, as a
lot of the small towns from which the
powder mills are drawing their labor
will not be reached by the trolley lines.
