Foiled In His Attempt to Blow Up the Houses of Parliament, the Gunpowder Plot Conspirator Gave to the English 3oy a Joyous Holiday. The day in England most nearly cor responding with the American Fourth of July in its manner of celebration is Guy Fawkes day, Nov. 5, the anni versary of the attempt to blow up the British houses of parliament, king, lords and commons by Guy Fawkes in 1G05. The celebration, although grad nally losing its national and historical significance, is still observed as a holi day by children in many parts of the country. For several weeks before "the-Fifth" the lads scour the countryside for tree trunks and branches, boxes, barrels, anything that will burn, in fact, and they trail their finds to some old barn miles away, where they are stored in anticipation of the great day and guarded with a zeal that often leads to pretty stiff fights. Marauders from other localities will, if not carefully watched, secretly re move inviting "chumps," as the logs are called, and add them to their own collections. Between this intermittent warfare and dodging the police and owners of woodland property the younger ele ment of Great Britain has quite a live ly time during the few weeks prior to Guy Fawkes day. The day itself is occupied until dusk in building Gonfires, "cadging" coil, coke and oil and eating "parkin," a cake inseparably associated with the celebrations. This cake is made of molasses, ginger and oatmeal or any other coarse meal. As soon as the first night shadow falls the fires are lighted, firecrackers begin to snap, and pyrotechnic displays of every description are in evidence in all directions. The fun Is kept up with a vim similar to our Fourth of July spirit until far into the night, when potatoes, roasted in the fires, are indulged in. The name given to the day is some what misleading perhaps. and the whole credit or onus of the pliA has been popularly laid upon the shoulders of Guy Fawkes, whereas he was- far from being the most important of the plotters and seems to have been chosen by the chief conspirators entirely because of his superb courage and coolness. The plan was originated by Robert Catesby, a man whose natural atmos phere was one of plots, but a man of extraordinary personal charm. The Roman Catholics had expected great things from the accession of James L to the throne. The laws of Elizabeth were cruel and unjust toward them, and they were led by James to expect amelioration and tolerance. Instead of this, the laws against them were enforced with renewed vrig or, and the great discontent resulted in the gunpowder plot The conspir acy was elaborately and carefully con ceived, and great hardships were un dergone to carry it out. It was not until the conspirators, all gentlemen unused to physical labor, had excavated through nine feet thick ness of stone wall in order to get be neath the house of commons that they found that a vault underneath the ed ifice was to let The vault was taken in the name of Guy Fawkes, and the severe physical work was ended. Un der cover of night thIrty-six barrels of gunpowder were conveyed to the vault, and all was in readiness for the meet ing of parliament on Nov. 5. Then came the first weakening which was to end in the failure of the scheme. The conspirators -could not agree upon a plan to warn the Cath olic lords and members who would oth erwise be blown up with the rest The plotters were all prominent gen tlemen and had personal friends among the apparently doomed legislators. An anonymous letter was received by Lord Monteagle, one of the Catholic peers, warning him not to be present The author of the letter is not really known, but it is commonly believed to have been Gresham, in spite of his vigorous denial when accused by Cates by. At all events, this is supposed to have been the key to the discovery. Monteagle showed the letter to Salis bury, who in turn took it to the king, and all sorts of ingenuity were exer cised to discover its meaning. A close watch was kept, and in order to take the plotters redhanded the arrest was palpably postponed until the dramatic moment in order to allow Catesby to escape, though he was shot a few days later while attempting to raise an in surrection at Worcester. Guy Fawkes, whose work it was to fire the train, was taken as he was leaving the house through which ac ess was gained to the V-ault, and the rest of the plotters were either killed or captured at Dunchurch, to where they fled. Fawkes was put to the torture, but nothing could shake his magnificent fortItude, though he was so weak from agony and sickness that he could scarcely mount the scaffold. The day (Nov. 5) was proclaimed a day of thanksgiving forever by an -act of par liament, which was only repealed after 200 years. For nearly 300 years the celebrations were carried to riotous excess. Effigles of Guy Fawkes were paraded in towns and villages all day amid shouting and singing and burned at night in huge confagrations to the accompaniment of thousands of fireworks.-Scra'p -Book.

Bear the The Kind You Hlave Always Bought HOME MISSIONS. MANNING AUX1LIARY Webster defines "Missions" a: an organized effort for thli spread of religion, or for th< enlightment and elevation o: some community or region; the propagation of a religious faith in a community where his church has no self-supporting indige nuous organization. " Accepting these definitions, we can readily understand how much home mis sion work is to be done. in the United States-both in evangeli zation and in education, not only to save men's souls, but to give them healthy bodies and deceni homes wherein to house these souls, to make intelligent citi zens and good Christians. It the mill and factory communi ties is largely ignorance, immor ahty, disease, and sorrow thai are eating like poison into the lives of the people. In the mining towns and lum ber camps are the profane and drunken. In many of these there is no church, no preacher, no school and not one saving influence. Are these people tc be considered as so many money making assets to heap up mate rial wealth for the country, while they live and die as the dog dies? Home missions, as another name for the spirit of Christ, must be the channel through which the church comes in contact with and uplifts these people. The isolated mountaineer in his cabin home and the isolated ranchman on the plains must look to the church in the more populous and richer sections tc aid them in building and main taining churches and schools and in furnishing preachers and teachers for them. Few in num ber, and without money or edu cation they cannot secure of and by themselves these means- of evangelization and education. The home missionary finds here not only a legitimate field for his labors, but one that responds with a rich harvest. The stranger appeals to the United States the home of liber ty and has opened -wide her doors to those who seek freedom from slavery of body, mind and soul in less favored lands, and have come to make homes in our midst. We begin to realize the immense missionary field that is here presented to both patriot ism and Christianity when we consider the incoming millions and realize that we have a popu lation of about 14,000,000 foreigt born and a large per cent of ou our native wbite population are the children of foreign bort parents. We must use vigoroos efforts to save them if we would save ourselves from an evei increasing moral, mental ani social degeneracy.SE CTD We wish the eyes of all om] women could be opened to this great work, and would join usait our efforts at Manning and else where to send out in our owi home land the light of the gos pel and help us in our efforts t< relieve and comfort the suffering S.

Among lawyers there is a saying that in the trial of a case an attorney if light on facts must be heavy on law. The other day an attorney was prepar lng to leave his office in one of the big fiee buildings to go to the courthouse to try a case. From the shelves of his library he had taken many large law books containing decisions and opin ons -of higher courts. At intervals a boy- went in and out of the door, and each time he bore .in his arms a stack of the books, which he carried to an express wagon that stood in the street beloi. The- attorney was to use the books In the courtroom. Another law yer, who Is of southern birth and who always- addresses his friends...with some army title, watched the boy as he went in and out carrying the law books. Then -:he dug his hands deep into his trousers pockets and said to the lawyer: "Well, Ab'll sweah, kunnel, you must have no case at alL"-Kansas5 City Times. This May Interest You.
