ABOUT JOHN MARSHALL Interest in the John Marshall celebration appears in the World's Work for February by some characteristic incidents in the life of the great Chief Justice, besides which there are a Marshall portrait, a silhouette and pictures of a number of Marshall landmarks. Here is one of the incidents: One day, Judge Marshall, engrossed in his reflections was driving over the wretched roads in North Carolina on his way to Raleigh in a stick gig. His horse turned out of the road, and the sulky ran over a sappling and was tilted so as to arouse the judge. When he found that he could neither move to the right nor left, an old Negro, who had come along solved the difficulty. "My old marster," he asked, what fer you don't back your horse?" "That's true," said the judge, and he acted as advised. Thanking his deliverer heartily, he felt in his pocket for some change, but he did not have any. "Never mind, old ma.i," he said, "I shall stop at the tavern and leave some money for you with the land-1 lord." The old Negro was not impressed with the stranger, but he called at the tavern, and asked the keeper if an old gentleman had left anything there for him. "Oh, yes," said the landlord, "he left a silver dollar for you. What do you think of that old gentleman?" The Negro gazed at the dollar and said: "He was a gem'man, for sho; but"? patting his forehead?"He didn't have much here." Keeping Track of a Vacuum.? There was once a chief engineer in the British navy, a patient man who had spent so many nights by the bedside of an expiring boiler, which never expir ed, but kept on bursting blood vessels and getting a death rattle in its thousand throats, that he had become reconciled to knowing that he would be called upon to stop leaks at all hours of the day and night for the rest of his natural life. His only envy was the man who could sleep undisturbed through the whole night. This man was Bulstrode, chief engineer of another ship. One night the assistant engineer sent a man up to Bulstrode to report the gradual disappearance of the vacuum in the air pumps. Knocking at the door the man sung out: "Please, sir, the vacuum is decreasing!" The answer came back In a drowsy voice: "Report to me if it gets lower." Half an hour later the man again rapped at the door. "The vacuum is much lower, sir.* "Very good. Tell me if it gets still lower." After another half hour: "Mr. Bultrode the vacuum is gone, sir." "All rigni, report to me il u tumca back."?Youth's Companion. Bulls of a Grand Duke.?The late Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar, Sereissimus, as he was affectionately called, had such a queer way of expressing himself that he often perpetrated "bulls." On a hunting expedition he saw a forester whose face seemed familiar to him. "Are you not a brother of Chief Inspector Schmidt?" asked the duke. "I am Chief Inspector Schmidt," said ? the man. "Ah," said Serenissimus, "that accounts for the resemblance." Another time the grand duke was waiting at a railway station in his tiny realm, and, addressing two little girls playing near the signal box, asked: "Who is your father?" "The stationmaster." "How old are you?" "I am 5 and my sister 4, Serenissimus." "How is that possible? Why, the line has only been built three years."? From. M. A. P. Private John Allen's Latest.? "Private John Allen, of Mississippi, gave one of his unique hog and hominy dinners last week to some congressional friends, and in the course of it told of a conversation between two darkies on his plantation. "Mose," said one of the Negroes to the other, "do you know them niggers down to Catfish P'int?" Catfish Point, Mr. Allen explained, is a bend in the river. "Sure," says Mose. "Do you 'member dat gal I was paying my civilities to?" "Cut'nly." "Dey has been tellin' dat gal that I am the sneakingest, onerarist nigger that ever came down to the P'int. And dey tell her, too, that I am the laziest, triflingest nigger dat ever was." "Did dey tell dat gal that you was dat kind of a nigger?" asked Mose. "Dey sut'nly did." "Well," said Mose, "dey has got you located, sho' 'nuff." Their Condition Explained.?"Br'er Johnson," said the elder of one of the colored churches to the recently appointed pastor, "what does yo' tink of de congregashun?" "Well, Br'er Jones, sence yo' asks me, I mus' say dey is er scrubby lookin' set." "Why, what does yo' mean, Br'er Johnson? Dey has mo' camp meetin's and get ligion oftener dan mos' eny congregashun in the town." "Dat's jes" it. Br'er Jones; dat's jes' it. Dey has done wore out de seats of dey pants blackslindin and de knees er prayen' for fo'gibness." An* Inconvenient Bottle.?Collier's Weekly tells of an old farmer who had been to the Metropolis, and was describing to his friends the splendor of the hotel at which he stayed. "Everything was perfect." he said, "all but one thing. They kept the light burning all night in my bedroom, a thing I ain't used to." "Well" said one wag, "why didn't you blow it out?" "Blow it out!" said the farmer. "How could 1? The pesky thing was inside a bottle." dt'aasulr (fathering?.

The value of the pictures is about $10,000,000, and this would have paid the war expenses for one month only. 4aT Rev. Joel J. Janvier, a native preacher of Northern India, who died recently after 43 years of hard work, was at the beginning of that period the only Christian in that region, where there are now 78,000 Christians and 92,000 children in Sunday schools. 4?* An inquiry at one of the department stores in New York, elicited the fact that of the enormous number of books sold during the holidays, more than one-half were Bibles. Other stores also reported large sales. One store has sold over 30,000 Bibles during the year. 1 4iT The number of immigrants who came to this country during the past year was 447,572. Of these about 100,000 came from Austria Hungary, about the same number from Italy, and nearly as many from Russia. The contribution from the British Isles, principally from Ireland, was 50,000. 43T General Kelly-Kenny, one of the British commanders in South Africa, is quoted as saying that the war in the Transvaal has clearly proved that it was possible to endure great hardships and do the hardest kind of fighting while practising absolute total abstinence from intoxicating liquors. && A cord of pitch pine under distillation, gives the following substances: Charcoal, 50 bushels; illuminating gas, about 1,000 cubic feet; illuminating oil and tar, 50 gallons; pitch or resin, 15 barrels; pyroligneous acid, 100 gallons; spirits of turpentine, 20 gallons tar. one barrel; wood spirits, five gallons. tV A statement issued by the leaders of the striking shirt-makers in NewYork shows that by working hard early and late, a worker could manage to earn $3 a week. They struck when the employers proposed to reduce wages by one-fifth. They say, and with reason, that it is not possible to live in New York on $2.40 a week. XiT Statistics gathered by The Advance show that of the 70,000 young men in American colleges 3S.000 are church members, and over 5,000 are candidates for the Christian ministry. During the past century the increase of church membership to that of general population is as 21 to 9. There are in the United States over 100,000 Christian ministers, and over 145,000 church edifices. ptettUancdUSi ^catling. FROM NEIGHBORING CONTEMPORARIES.

A large number of colored people assembled at the hall, but Kit failed to appear.

BISHOP OF ASIA'S FUTURE. He Expects England and Germany to Block Russia. Bishop Thoburn, missionary bishop in Asia of the Methodist Episcopal church, made an address this afternoon in the First Methodist church that created a stir among the audience, as he launched into political questions likely to arise from the death of Queen Victoria, says a Chicago dispatch of Sunday. He referred to the duty of the United States in China, and gave a forecast oi the future of Europe and Asia. The Bishop said: "I do not admire Russia in all re1 spects; but I thank God every tim* i hear of that empire annexing more ol Asia. But there is a new power entering Asia, and no one seems to ift>tic? it. Many significant things will result from what has just passed betweer 1 Emperor William and his uncle, Edward VII of England. Before man) years the old Austrian emperor wil die. The old empire will then fall t( pieces, and what will be more natura than that Germany will possess th( 1 part of it which now borders on th< Adriatic? The German empire wil ' then be continuous from the North Ses ! to the Mediterranean. * "Germany has already built railroad.' ' in Asia Minor between the Tigris ant 1 the Euphrates rivers. European gov ernments do not build railroads unless ' they intend to operate them. German] ' will secure that part of Central Ask ' which Russia covets. All of Southerr Asia from the China sea west to th< ' Mediterranean will be in the posses sion of Germany and England. Ger ' many will have the southern coast llni 5 and the British empire will have secur i ed Arabia." Taking up the Philippine questioi t the bishop upheld the policy of Presi I dent McKinley in relation to those is i lands, saying: "Why should people lament the ab sorption of the small powers by th< ' ?

"The United States should eithei 3 agree," he said, "to let certain nowen t break up China, or say they shall no i do it. If our nation should say it mus not be done, not all the nations of Eu > rope would risk the consequences o: . opposing our wishes. Great Britair and Japan would support us and Ger , many would fall into line, even thougl , it does want the Southern coast." Governor Shaw, of Iowa, presided ai ! the meeting.
