An angular woman wearing a mackintosh sitting next to , General Joe Wheeler in a street car, rose to get off at Fourteenth and F streets, says the Washington correspondent of the New York World. General Wheeler noticed an umbrella leaning against the car seat He grabbed the umbrella, ran after the woman, caught her at the door and said: "Pardon me, madam, but you left your umbrella." The woman looked puzzled: but took the umbrella. General Wheeler resumed his seat. Then a woman on the other side of him gave a little scream and said: "Why, you nasty little man, you gave that woman my umbrella." Then she appealed to the conductor. General Wheeler apologized; but the woman said: "Now you just get right off the car and get it for me, or I'll notify the police." ' AT. . iwore MeeKiy me veiemu vl mm tumbled off Into the rain and ran after the woman with the mackintosh. He made a hurried explanation, got the umbrella and rushed back to the waiting car. As he handed it back to its owner he said: "I trust you will pardon me, madam. I assure you it was all a mistake." The woman glared at him. "I don't know about that," she sniffed. "I don't believe you are any better than you ought to be." Roll a Pumpkin.?The Rev. John Haynes was famous for his pithy sayings. At one time, says one of our exchanges, he overheard his daughter and some young friends criticising certain neighbors more severely than was pleasing to him, whereupon he proceeded to read them a lecture on the sinfulness of scandal. "But, father," remonstrated his daughter, "we must say something." "If you can do nothing better," retorted Mr. Haynes dryly, "get a pumpkin and roll it about. That will at least be an innocent diversion." Not long afterward a conference of ministers met at his house. During the evening an earnest discussion on certain points of doctrine arose, and, from the lofty pitch of some of the voices, it seemed as if part of the disputants at least were in danger of losing their temper. At that juncture Mr. Hayne.V daughter quietly entered the room, bearing a huge pumpkin. She put it down 9n front of her father and said: "There, father, roll it about. Roll it about." Mr. Haynes was called upon for an explanation, and good humor was restored. Had Legal Talent.?Chief Justice McFarland of the supreme court tackled a youngster one day who, in spite of his appearance, will probably be an nmament to the bench one of these <lays. The boy had just taken the law examinations and had failed. Said Justice McFarland by way of consolation: "It's really too bad that you could not have been admitted to the bar after your first trial; but then, you know, the brightest men often fail the first examination." "Thank you, sir." replied the would be lawyer. "I failed this time; but I feel cocksure that I can make it on my second try." "Your confidence is commendable," replied tne justice: "but it is not well to be overconfident. What makes you so sure?" "Well, I know that I have tried once and failed. Now, if the supreme court had decided once that I am not bright enough to practice law,- it's a pretty sure sign that the second trial will pass me, for who ever heard of the supreme court having rendered the same decision twice?"?San Francisco News Letter. Exacting Thirteen Guns.?An ad miral of our navy, old, crusty and self important, took great delight in hearing a salute to his flag. The following story, told in the Boston Herald, exhibits the man: We had entered a port, and the old gentleman was strutting up and down the poop while a salute in his honor was being fired. After 12 guns the firing ceased. The admiral was furious. He had been counting them himself: so had the quartermaster and the flag lieutenant, both of whom agreed that only 12 guns had been fired. His salute was 13. 'Don't answer that salute!" he roared. "Don't answer it. It v:-s only 1? guns!" Pretty soon a boat put off from the shore, and an officer demanded to know why the salute had not been returned. He was told. "When I receive the proper salute, I shall answer it," said the offended admiral. An hour afterward a solitary gun boomed out. The admiral was satisfied, as this made the full 13. and the salute was promptly returned. Anticipated.?He was a Scotch minister in a small country parish, and he was .sometimes DUt to it for fresh pas ture wherewith to feed his flock. One day, however, he bethought himself that he had never exhausted the subject of Jonah, and his heart rejoiced. Jonah and the whale was the sort of thing wnereby you could easily drag out a sermon its allotted two hours, lie was in full career, and had reached triumphantly the anatomical peculiarities of the case. "An' what feesh do ye think it wad be?" he cried in stentorian tones. "Aiblins ye think it wad be a haddie? Na, na, it cud nae be a haddie for to take a big mon like you in his belly.

It Is our duty only to hand these blessings dowr those who are to come after us: but j also our duty to enlarge them and to crease their number. Let us. theref embalm these blessings in our g works and transmit them to fui generations. "And thou mayest thereto." We constitute the connecting between the past and the future, this link be a golden link, binding gether the good works of the past \ the good works of the future.

If our work is acceptable to God, nature is imperishable. Every m thought, every kind word, every ac self-denial for Christ's sake, re< themselves in the sounding board eternity and never die away. Our v may be very imperfect in this work may be very incomplete: but, if i done in the name of Jesus, and for sake, it will stand every test and last forever. There is an element immortality in every noble thought impulse, in every kind word and sr and in every good deed and w These thoughts and words and d< are embalmed in the hearts and live those who come after us, and they transmitted from one generation another. What shall the message of our 1 be to those who are to come aftei in the regular line of the world's tory? Shall it be: We transmit to the sacred trust which we inher from our fathers: we have cheris thp JnheHtanpe and have been bles1 It: we have used It for the glorj God and for the advancement of kingdom: we have added to it; we , It to you intact and in an enlai form: and may you ever be faithfu the trust? God grant that this i be our message to future generatioi III. The work of our fathers sho re to us a mighty incentive to bler and better living. When we consider the difficulties obstacles with which they had to < tend, and when we consider how m they did; we ought to lay out al our energies and undertake gre; things. The work which they acc plished ought to be to us an incent and, at the same time, an encoun ment. Many important and useful sons do they teach us jn their lives experiences. Look at their traits character as displayed in their 1 and labors. Consider their reverence for ( Thoroughly convinced of the doct of God's sovereignty, they placed Almighty upon the throne and t kept him there in all of their thin! and living. Notice their courage. Being pressed with the omnipotent powei the truth and feeling that they wer the grasp of the divine purpose, t had the courage of their convict! and the fortitude to stand up in face of all the opposition that was rayea against inem. Look at their contentment. Whe man realizes that God rules, that ' has a plan which covers his life an purpose that runs through his hisl as the warp runs through the cl that God is making all things work gether for his good; if this docti does not lift him above the cares, ai eties and disappointments of this then there is no doctrine that can di Witness their devotion to G truth. Holding that the Bible is word of God; that it is not only the fallible rule of faith and practice, that it is a sufficient and perfect r relying solely on this word for tl system of doctrine: realizing that Scriptures come not only as a rev tion from God, but also as a revela of God: they were ready to die for blessed truth, and thousands of tl did seal their devotion to God's w with their lifeblood. Behold their hopefulness. Know that God sits upon the throne and t his Kingdom rules over all: know that God's plans cover all events agencies, and that his purposes through them all: knowing thesethii they realized that all the powers darkness and sin combined were inr tent to thwart the plans of the Alml ty, or to defeat his purposes. 1 gave them a hopefulness born of mighty God. How these things ought to encour us and to act upon us as a mighty centive in our lives! "Wherefore ! ing we also are compassed about \ so great a cloud of witnesses, let lay aside every weight and the which doth so easily beset us. and us run with patience the race tha set before us, looking unto Jesus, author and finisher of our faith." Our part in the great work commi to the church is an important one: portant because It forms a part God's plan. We add to what has ready been done. Do we want to se God's own time a completed, symmt cal work? Let the prospect of 1 completed work be an incentive to Says some one: "I do not see the thedral as yet, when I go unto the < fused quarry yard and see there half-wrought stones, the clumsy bit that are by and by to be decon capitals. But when at last they finished in form and brought toget the mighty building rises in the air ever enduring psalm in rock. I do see the picture yet, when I look u the palette with its blotches and st: and lumps of colors. By and by. \v the skillful brush of the painter distributed those colors, I see the diant beauty of the Madonna, the thos of the Magdalene: I see the bes of the landscape spread out upon canvas, with meadow, and hill, winding stream, and thesplendors ol sun-set crowning the whole. I do see yet the perfect Kingdom of upon earth, but I see the colors wl are to blend in it. I see the aire half-chiseled rock out of which it s be wrought: and I am not goinj! despond now when so much has t accomplished." The sure hope c perfect church, not having spot, wrinkle, or any such thing, ought ways to be an inspiration, an enc< agement and an incentive to us.

Consecration.?David says to Solo? mon: "Build the house of the Lord thy |[T1 God." Consecrate yourself to your i I work, and lay out all your strength and ' I l energies in it. Let nothing prove to be an insuperable obstacle in the way. So it should be with us. If we would do our part in this great work, we must consecrate ourselves to God's service. Oh, for an all-consuming and allt0 comprehensive consecration! In order e t0 to accomplish the greatest possible not good, there must be an entire consecra, to tion of body, mind and soul, of time, It iS friends, reputation, property?all. jn_ 3. Prayer.?David said to Solomon: ore "Only the Lord give thee wisdom and -ood understanding." "If any of you lack ture wisdom, let him ask of God, that gi\eth add to all men liberally, and upbraldeth not: and it shall be given to him." link A ''fe P^yer and communion with Let God is absolutely necessary. Take to- Christ as an example. When the trouvith bles of life threatened to overwhelm for- him, he went to God in prayer. After ujty he had restored to life the man's wlth:ood ered hand, the people were filled with ives madness and were planning how they be- might get rid of him. What did Christ rard d?? He withdrew himself from the self people and went out into the mountain pon t0 Pray and continued all night in ight prayer to God. And when the burden of a world's sin was resting upon him ?s hp stood uDon the threshold of the , us ? ? ??- ? oble crucifixion, what did he do? He went t 0f to the garden, and there he withdrew | ;0rd himself even from his most intimate I 0f disciples, and poured out his soul in rork ernest prayer to God. In fact, i.is }. jf whole life was truly and eminently a t' 1S life of prayer and communion with his God. will So it must be with us. Without this t of living communion with God there can an,i be no real success, nlle, 4- Faith.?David said to Solomon: ork! "That thou mayest keep the law." 2eds Obedience is a natural, legitimate, is of and inevitable result of true faith. are True faith is the only foundation for to genuine obedience. Take Noah and Abraham as illustrating this truth, ives Take Christ as an example. See how P his faith in God manifested itself in his hjs_ life and made his lifework a success. yoU Like the everlasting mountains, this ,|ted faith was so firmly grounded and esihed tablished that no agency could shake t hv or disturb it. Adversity came; disapr 0f pointments crowded upon him: his enejjj3 mies resorted to every conceivable g.|ve measure to thwart his plans and defeat .ged his purposes: his friends forsook him jj to 1? hour of need; he was forsaken fog,, even by his Father in heaven: but all ro of these things combined could not shake his faith in God.

The Crescent Cotton mill in this city, advertised for sale by Receiver A. E. Smith, occurred in the mill last Monday. A number of strangers were present, and the bidding was quite spirited, the first bid being $25,000 by I. S. Cohen, of Charleston. Other bidders were A. H. White, W. J. Roddey and R. T. Fewell, of this city; J. W. Llndau, of Greensboro, and J. M. Odell, of Concord. The property, which embraces the building and grounds and all the machinery except 17 spinning frames and 208 spindles on which a mortgage existed, was knocked down to W. J. Roddey, whose bid was $43,500. It is understood that Mr. Roddey was bidding for Mr. I. S. Cohen, who it is said is the agent of a syndicate of holders of bonds issued by the mill. The mortgaged spinning frames and spindles were bought by Major A. H. White, tne purchase price being $9,100. 2023 pounds of paper was bought by J. A ?1 r?Aiinr? A lot" K. uarron at uems ^ci puui.u. ? of drilling, burlaps, cotton in process and office furniture was bought by I. S. Cohen, agent. The total proceeds of the sale is about $43,70u. We have no poshive information as to the policy of the syndicate that bought the mill, other than a rumor that a-company, to be composed of the purchasing bondholders and certain capitalists, j will be formed at an early date and that it will operate the mill, supplying it with up-to-date machinery. Anotner rumor, however, is that the property has already been offered for sale and that the policy of the purchasers will be to operate the plant only in the event of a failure to sell. It is not probable. though, that anything definite will be known for several weeks. A NATIONAL REVIVAL. This Is Being Planned For By Friends of the Late D, L. Moody. It was announced last week that a secret meeting was held in New York at which plans were perfected to hold a monster religious revival to usher in the twentieth century. The revival is to be the fruition of the plan evolved by the late Dwight L. Moody, which his friends took up, and they have enlisted in its support the most prominent Christian workers of the country. It is to be national in scope, with New York in the centre. It is to be absolutely undenominational in character, and "Christ and the Bible" is the only battle cry. According to what has been divulged as to the plan, practically every branch of the Protestant church and all the great religious societies identified with it are united in the 'crusade. It will be a gigantic and carefully organized effort by ministers "and laymen of all Protestant creeds working together, with denominational lines obliterated and differences buried. The leaders, banded together as a national central committee, are now opening their campaign. The committee includes a majority of the leading evangelical clergymen of Greater New York, besides William B. Moody, son of the dead evangelist; John Willis Baer, of Boston, secretary of the United Socie^ of Christian Endeavor; John R. Mott, of the International Young Men's Christian association; H. M. Moore, of Boston; L. L. Doggett, of Springfield, Mass.. president of the Training School; General O. O. Howard, of New York, and General J. J. Estey, of Brattleboro, Vt. An appeal has been mailed to all parts of the United States, which calls on those to whom it has been sent "to immediately and unitedly engage in a campaign for the promotion of a revival of Christianity in every city, town and village at the opening of the twentieth century." The week of prayer will formally inaugurate the movement all over the United States; but New York will witness the real opening of the campaign. The South and the Century.?One hundred years ago the South, spurred by Revolutionary Invention, set up as an agricultural ruler. In a short time King Cotton became an absolute monarch, dominating the South economically, politically and socially. Attempts to limit the imperial power by paying court to commerce and manufactures, in a measure successful, was frustrated for a time by the consequences of the King's exercise of political influence. Clinging in defeat almost of necessity to the King which had made defeat possible, the South, mindful of early hopes and efforts, gradually loosened the hold of the tyrant, and at the beginning of a new century is developing a democratic balance of the powers of agriculture, manufactures and trade in which the dethroned monarch will hold an honored and influential, but not a dominating place. Southern agriculture is to realize its greatest possibilities in diversifying its energies, putting forth its best efforts to provide a living at home, and devoting its surplus strength to the money crop whether that be cotton, tobacco, rice or fruit. It will grind its own wheat and corn, fatten its own cattle, and slaughter its own hogs. At the same time it will encourage the building of cotton mills and lumber mills, iron foundries and steel plants, the opening of mines of phosphate, coal, iron, lead and zinc, the extension of railways and the development of trade relations with foreign parts in the certain knowledge that thereby the opportunities of the farmer will be vastly enhanced.?Southern Farm Magazine.

"Ton's stuck," he said oraculary. "Unless." he added unscrupulously, ^you can pass it off." "I wouldn't do that" returned the conductor, polishing the bogus coin on his coat sleeve. "Besides, no one would take it." "Not alone; but you might slip it in among two or three good ones," suggested the passenger. The conductor shook his head virtuously, as the car began to fill up. An hour later the ex-passenger fished up some small changed to buy a cigar, and the first thing he saw was a bad five-cent piece. "I gave him a quarter," he mused, "and he gave me four nickles in change. The man," he added, still musing,, "who gave me that, must have thought I was a chump."?Puck. The Tables Turned.?"We air here tonight," said the deacon, "to make good resolutions fer the new year, which has fell foul of us in the twinklin' of a eye. Now, I want to start the ball a-rollin'. You all know that I've got a high temper, an I've did considerable flghtin' in the year that's past an gone like a man that owes you $10. What I want to do is to swear off from flghtin in the new year, which, as I have said hefore. has fell foul of us. But I can't stop till I lick Brother Jones, cos it's in me to lick him, an I wants to ease my conscience. Ef he'll jest step outside with me fer five minutes, I'll lick him and then swear off for good." They retired to the outer darkness; but in less than five minutes the deacon returned, much the worse for wear. "I can't swear off this time, brotherin," he said. "He licked me!"?Atlanta Constitution. Sensible Touch.?"Doctor," said the rheumatic patient, 'you seem to hunt for the sore spots." "I know them the moment I put my fingers on them," replied the specialist, who was giving his joints and muscles a kneading. "I don't have to hunt for them. That is a part of my education." "Your fingers become sensitive, I suppose," groaned the patient, "like those of a postal clerk, who can tell whether a letter has money in it or not as soon as he takes it in his hand." "Well, hardly so highly trained as that," replied the specialist, with a slight muscular contraction of his left ! eyelid. "I can never tell, when I take hold of a patient whether there is any money in him or not."?Chicago Tribune. To Gret a Good PHOTOGRAPH Come to my Gallery on West Liberty street.
