Passing a mean little shanty one ~unday morning Salliv'an heard .a >ud ye'll: "Murder! Murder! Hdlp!" In his grave, generous way, never topping to count the cost, he ran at all speed toward the sound. "An Id man's voice," he muttered to imself, and then he shouted as he "Have nlo fear! Courage! I will as ist you!" "Murder," shrieked the voice gain. Sullivan reached Ithe door and hundered on it with his fists anid eet. It opened and a neat young roman appeared. "What is the trouble that'"-Flor ie panted, but the young~ woman, miling quietly, interrupted him. "Oh, never mind at all, at all," he said.

The bishop of Maryland was much terested in uplift work among the owly. and maintained a school for teglcted 'children in one of the poor r quarters of Baltimore, says the a. Among the pupils was a little irs whose free use of "swear rords" indicated lamentable condi ions of the home cirele. On one of he bishop's visits to the school the .eacher told him of this ~!ittle girl's ersi-stent use of profanity, and ask :d him to tailk to her a'bout it.

A iprivate letter was received some ime ago fron Rev. W. L. Seabrook riniig t.he information that he has evi(led to loe-ate in Westminster, id. He has been elected unani 1ously -i pastor of a Lutheran con regation very near Westminster .nd at the solicitation of many riends he has consented to act as ditor of the American Sentinel, an id and established weekly newspa er of which his father has been edi or for nany years. The many riends of Mr. Sealbrook at Newber y will be delighted to know that he so pleasantly situated. The .fol nwing additional notice is taken rom the last issue of the Lutheran rhurch Visitor: "Rev. W. L. Seabrook, formerly astor of the Lutheran Church of he Redeemer, Newberry, S. C., is aek at his old home, Westminster, Id., where for a nim'ber of years e practieed -law before entering the rinistry. At the earnest solicita ion of many old friends, he is act-' ag as the editor of the American ,entinel, one of. the oldest -nd most nportant county - weeklies in Mary md. This does not mean that Mr. eabrook has given up. his work for he hurch. A(bout six miles from Vestminster there is a church whose ongregation includes a number of riends and former clients, who have aid him the great compliment . of alling him as their pastor, serving hem in connection with his editor hip. He was installed as the pastor f Trinity church November 3d. r. Seabrook has always obeyed the all of the church and is ready to erve wihere'ver he may be needed." Rev. W. C. Shaoffer, D. D. The Savannah papers speak in a ighly commendatory 'manner of Dr. ehaeffer, upon the closing of his ork as pastor of the Lutheran hureh of the 'Ascension. The Press ays: "'For fifteen years Dr. Schaef ;er has been at the head of the hurch with which his connection is 0011 to cease. During that time he L.as made friends witih a great many savannahians, who regret to see tini leave the city. He has served (s church well a.nd has been such a itizen as would be welceomed to any omunity. He is popular, not alone -ith those of his own denomination, ut with people of a:ll classes and of dli hurches.

The Morn ng News gives some of the pra'etical esult's of Dr. Schaeffer 's work. in savannah, after a suitable reference :o his valuab:le services as a mem yer of the various ehurch boards: 'Dr. Schaeffer's best work has been ecoiplished among the Latherans >f Svannah.

Fred Samuel Long-"A Plea for the Rights of Childhood." " Frederick William Cappelmann "America Today." Edgar Haltiwanger Rawl-"Pro hibition Our only Hope." Virgil Bernard Sease-" The Pose that Kills.'' On this occasion will be displayed the best oratorical effort the young men are capable of putting forth; fer to represent the college in the sfate contest is the highest honor to which the young men may aspire during their college course. Con scious of this, the represe-tatives of both societies have }abored unceas ingly that they may do honor to themselves and to the' organizations they represent. With live comprehensive subjeets, which the young men have studied with the utfnost care, and trained under the efficientand strenuous su pervision of Dr. Roy Z. 'Thomas, they are prepared to enteittain well for a f4v hours the patrons and friend- of the institution. Music will be furnished by the College Glee elub, whieh is compos ed of about twenty of the young men; and it goes without saying that this will add much to the pleas ure of the evening. All who attend are requested to come early, as the exercises are to begin promptly at 7:43 o'elock. He Had to Go. A Chicago medico tells 'of two phy sicians in a Wisconsin town, the one .elderly, with a long record of cures, the other young, with his record 'still to make. The older doctor, it appears, was inclined to surrender some of his night work to the younger man. One bitter night in winter the vateran was aroused by two farmers from a hamlet eight miles away, the wife of one of whom was seriousi yill. The doctor at onee referred t,hem to his young colleague, but they.refused the atter's services. "Very well," replied the doctor, thning to .put a cnvinoing argu ment before them. "Tn that case my fee is $10, payabMe now." Whereupon there,ensued a remon strance on the part of the farm'ere butt the doctor was obdurate. Finally oeof the men1 asked the other: . "Well, what do. you think I ought to do?" '1 think you'd better pay him the $10." said the other. "'The funeral would cost you more."' -Harper's Weekly.____ __ An Ideal Jury. 'The difficulty of impaneling a jury in the early courts of Wisconsin may be seen 'from a story related 'by a lawyer of tha.t state, afterward a senator of the United States, accord ing to the New York Times.' Judge Irwin was on the bench and a murder trial was pending. G.~ L. Log, familiarly known as "Lucy' Long, was un,der-sheriff. There ws diffiulty in getting a jury that knew~ nothing about .the facts of the case. The regular panel had been exhaust ed and a special venire had been is sued and was figally returned. "'We'll, Mr. Long," asked th* judge, "have you at last secured a suffieient num'ber oif jurymen who know nothing albout this case?" "Yes, your honor," replkied Long, "six of them know notihing about this ase and the other six know nothing at all." A regular Mr. Malaprop recently came home from his first visit to Eu rope. He grew enthusiastic aboui Rome. "It was 'fin',' he declared, "to g< into them churches over there and see the old tomfbe-cigarophagusses, then call 'em.

Brilliant Wedding of Mr. Clarence Wise to Miss Eugenia Summer. At the Lutheran church of tie Re deemer on last Thrusday evening was solemnized the marriage of Miss 'Euge:iia Summer and Mr. Clarence Ranch Wise. The ceremony was performed by Dr. J. A. B.
