CARROLL CAUSES SENSATIO The Colored Preacher Accuses h: Brethren of the Negro Baptist Ch!zr:h -f Mis:, -:duet The Rev. R. Carroll. of Columb caused a breeze in the negro Bapt State convention in Union last we by accusing some of the minister appropriating the convention mon to their individual use and collectii money for foreign mission work ar distributing it among themselves buy land. "I was at a meeting when a cc lection was lifted for Africa and e ery cent of the money was divided mong the preachers present.' sa the Rev. Carroll., "and this is wh they called Africa." The Rev. G. W. Railford, i a res mution which was unanimously adop ed, said that Dr. Carroll had made a unwarranted attack upon the ministi without any provocation or found; tion, and resolved that the Rev. Ca roll was wrotig in making the sweel ing charges against the ministry, an tiat a committee be appointed to an; wer them. "I am prepared to prove all that have said." shouted the Rev. Mr. Cai rol. "I was inspired by God to wri1 and say what I have said. I kno you men. I am honest in dealin w'th you. I use to drink whiskey i my life, but I have never drunk wit any of you. I use to buy my whiske: go home, drink it, get drunk and g to bed, but now I do not use it at all. At this point questions of privileg( points of order were voiced , an many others were on the floor throw ing the convention in a circus-like up roar. During the excitement some c the brethren were accused of handlin the truth carelessly. Peace was re stored and the resolutions adopte< and the Rev. Carroll announced tha he was in position to use the Baptist if he so desired. Caesar and His Wife. There are husbands who, amon their male companions, like to hav it supposed that they are just a littl( tyrannical at home. One such man who had two or three friends at hi house one evening, remarked, as the were chatting together comfortabI at'a rather late hour: "Yes, I do what I like at home. M3 wife, she has to bend to my will,l can tell you. In my house I'm a reg ular Julius Caesar!" His wife came into the room ir time to hear the last sentence. Th< tyrant of his household looked a lit tie uneasy, but his wife neithei frowned, nor apparently paid any at tention to the remark. But after a moment she remarked very positive ly: "Gentlemen, it is late, and Julius Caesar has g.>t to go to bed!" Where- -the husband arose, stammer.. his excuses and retired, leaving his guests to find their way out as best they could. It was in another household that the husband once remarked to his wife: "You know, my dear, that I am the head of the house!". "You may be the head as much as you like," said the wife, "but I'm the neck." "The neck? 0 yes, you may be the neck if you want to, my dear." "Very well. It's the neck that turns the head whichever way it pleases, Straightening Things. Patrick Maginis went to confr ssion, and among many other sins, coafess ed to the good father that he had stol en Mrs. Mulcahy's pig, the loss of which had been a great blow to the poor woman. T'he priest looked at Pat very severely and said: "Stole Mrs. Mulcahy's pig, did ye? That's very bad, Patrick-very bad. Don't you know. Pat, that to steal a pig is a heinous sin, and to steal Mrs. Mulcahy's pig is worse? What will ye say in the day of judgment when Mrs. Mulcahy confronts *ye 'before the Lord an' charges ye with stealin' her pig--what'll ye say?" Pat looked rather glum at this on slaught, but at this point he picked up and said: "Sure, yer riverince, Mrs. Mulachy won't be there?" "Indade; an' why not, Pat Margin is? Mrs. Mulcahy will be there and the pig'll be there, an' when yer ask ed why ye stole the widdy's pig, What Shall We iHave for Dessert? This question arises in the family every day.

"And will the pig be there?" t- "Certainly." n "Then begorra." said Pat, "I'll say y Mrs. Mulcah,. there's your pig." Won't Move on Friday. " "Friday is a kind of holiday in our d business." said the professional mov - er. "There is a big lot of superstition in this town. and, except in cases of I actual necessity, it is hard to get any body to move on Friday. If a few e families that intend to change quar v ters soon could only be induced to put g aside their foolish prejudice against n this sixth day of the week they could h be set up in their new home with half r, the trouble and inconvenience they [ will experience on any other day. I have explained that to many prospec , tive customers, but the chances are a that most of them will vote to join - the rush- rather than tempt bad luck - by moving on Friday. f "Most of onr movers dislike Friday as much as the customers. Whatever - jobs are assigned to them they at , tend to, of course, but every last t man in our employ wiU be glad if not s a single order was booked for Friday. They claim that every accident to the furniture through loss or break age, occurs on a Friday, so, for their own sake, they uphold the customers ) in their fight against Friday." Mr. Hyde's Luxurious Stables. James H. Hyde, the storm-center of the Equitable fight, is reputed to have the most splendid stables in America. There is a special room devoted to the harness, spotless and shining as table silver. In a case are curb, bits, bells, stirrups and whips. There are carved wooden cases, containing a veritable museum of old stirrups, nos tillion whips and hunting horns, and a great hall containing not less than 25 carriages. The stables' are ruled over by Fran cois Guillot, a true Parisian, who serv ed W. K. Vanderbilt for ten years. A lady visitor to the stables admired one of the horses extravagantly, and Guillot turned to her and said sim'ply and earnestly: "You will only have to tell Mr. Hyde the horse pleases you: I am quite sure he will give it to vou." Mr. Hyde 'has an office in the stable. a room full of telephones and electric bells, furnished with; fine carpets, old mahogany furniture, sporting photo graphs and prints,, coaching trophies and hunting horns. Next to his of fice is the kitchen, which permits him and his guests to come wvhen the wxhim seizes them and have supper in the stables more freely and gaily than in the chateau. I remember a very festive supper that we 'had there with the thermometer outside 15 above ze ro, where ladies donned old postillion hats or bull-fighter bonnets and blew hunting horns, while everybody danc ed the cakewalk.
