T was- f( meeting -

fieid, Massachusetts
Bay Colony, on a
Sunday morning in
June, 1676. Tb*

ment stood silent
as so many tomb*
among tbe black
stumps of tbe half
cleared Heidi, !or every soul ia the place
from the old man of ninety to the young
ett child, was in the meeting-house on
hill ? every soul, that is, except
>r True.
ibner Trne, whose father was a
>n and tithing-mao, and counted !
d only to the minister hiuwelf in
piety, was actually playing truant
meeting: and th:3 in a village
locked upon Plymouth and Wey
as dangerously worldly towns, I
in morals- and manners bj over-,
tosperity.
Bat Ybner had worked from sun to
sun every day of the last week, and
knew he must do the same every day of
the next week and the week alter that;
'for the corn was to behoedvthe grass
crops got in, and a score of other tasks
to'1>e done.
II s^lne$ to- him too hard that, on
this bte day of rest, he should be obliged I
to sit upon a backless plank bench all
the forenoon, if* indeed, he did not find
fcinuelf forced to fit there longer; since |
Parson Pladley, who rarely preached less I
ihXM three hours, sometimes preached
four, and once or twice had been known
to exceed five bouts.
"Abner felt sore that the sermon would
not be a short one this day, even accord-^
ing totbe preacher's ideas of brevity ;
sad the more be thought of it the more
he dreaded it, until he became witling
to incur any punishment for the sake of ;
escaping that discourse. . ? ? j
So when Deacon Amos, with his wife
and younger children, were readv
lor meeting, no Abner could be found;
Hidden in the little hay-mow of the
rough barn, be saw the family depart ?
his father marching ahead, equipped
with musket, bandoleer and powder
horn; for King Philip and his Indians
were at war against the whites, and no
_ jpmi inriliiliiii I the colony went to field
or church without his arms.
Similar groups, sin^iiarly accoutred,
paced solemnly along toward the rude
sanctuary upon the hill, until Abner,
seeing that all EuddersSeld had passed,
fett that he was safe ? for the present ?
and lay down upon the sdft hay to pre.
pare for the sound nap he had so Iongei
for.
i Below old Fly, the farm horse, stamper
and munched; without, the hens crowed
4a the sunshine, wftb a drowsy note that
fihould "have been favorable enough fot
slumber. But between his guilty con
jcipusness of what he had done and hit
dread of Deacon Amos would do, Ahmet
could not manage to go to 9leep.
He began to wish himself upon that
backless plank bench, even if the sermon ,
were to last all day; yet a tealy' arrival
would be nearly as great offence as not feu
come at all; and he bad not the courage
to meet the public reproof which Parson
Pladley might administer, or to hasten
the private, chastisement that Deacon
Amoe would surely inflict.
The time went on. The old house
* ttss still now ; the hens uttered only ax j
r occasional croak. From the far distance
'* the preacher's voice came dbwn on tht
3g*arm breeze in a softened murmur. ;
/%boer was dozing.
What was that? He heard a sound
k.t -wakened him quite, and be sprang i
to listen. - 1

! iad no firearms sat stiffly on the benches
j with the women and children, most of j
?bom had not looked behind them since \
ibosr rushed in- t\ u .rK |i,: ; j
Parson Pladley looked at the hour- j
which still continued t? run, and j
Juletly resumed his sermon. Around <
r.he sides of the room the musketeecs
looped at the loopholes amid the %tot
vapor from their smouldering matches.
On the benches the body of listeners
j thtir composed countenances taroed
j Sfvoa the preacher. Save his voice,
f Jhere was no sound but an infrequent
metallic rattle, as some musketeer ex- [
i unined his gun or looses his iron-I<ed
| oroadsword in the scabbard- The_.
! morels of the" preacher sang throug hout
[ the hou*e :
"And even as aforetime the heathen :
. iidjuriously rage, and did compass the j
! children of the covenant with spear aad j
| iavelin roued about?"
i A high-pitched, tilling screech filled
! 'he air without, and now rose above the
jiinisters Toice. It was sustained and
! prolonged in many ?vage throats. j
There came quick, sharp pattenngs on
the roof and walls, like hailstones.
Enoch Brett fell backward from his
loophole with an arrow through the
; oraiD. Another man ro3e from his seat,
picked up the gun which Brett had
' dropped, and took the vacant station. j
A dozen muskets answered the storm i
; jf missels Their fire seemed to check j
! the advance of the Indians, inasmuch a?
i the war cry grew faiuter, and the pat
' i^ring of the arrows diminished.
' Pa: son Piadley had not interrupted his
sersion, although his voice had been j
j temporarily drowned by the noise of the
assault and defence, except for the in- !'
3taot that he cast one glance at the mus* .]
ket beside him, and another at the hour.
glaS*.
All the men who could act were at j
their posts; why should he not continue i
to the end, while waiting for the de3- |
perate struggle which must come? His
sense of duty told him that he ought not
to cease his holy office before the ap
pointed time, except under compulsion
in which he must recognize the, hand of
God.
His hearers understood this m well as
f he had declared his determination in
so m'aoy words. They did their part by
listening with steady attention.
Again the cries grew loader and
arrow flights thicker. The guns re
plied, but this time the attack was not
repulsed. A ponderous thumping on ths
door, which shook the whole building,
told that some kind of battering-ram was
being employed to break it down. =< A
few more such shocks and the door must
fall. ?
Oaly a pinch or two more of sand re
-named ia the hour glass. Still it wai
not quite empty and Pars on 'Piadley
preached on. ? V > P < > ;. >
Crash t The door was half off its j
hinges. The firearm men crowded be- j
hind it and deliverd a volley that ap
peared for a minute to clear the passage, j
There was yet some sand in the hour
glass. The parson's lips could be seen
to move, though his voice was not
heard.
A renewed ytU and the crashing blows
once more beat upon the door. No shots
as wered this time, for the muskets were
wnpty.
An arrow whisiled across the church
and stuck quiverifcg in the front of the ;
. pulpit. Around the edges of the shat
tered door hatchets and clubs \ were
krandishe 1 in thei faces of the defend- j
srs, who daa'ied them aside with the
butts of their guns. The women began :
to scream.
The 3ast sand ran out of the hour -glass.
Parson Piadley bowed Uis head and said.
"AmenP And all the congregation
answered together, 41 Amen!"
Up sprang the? hitherto motionless
listeners ? women ia the rear, jnea to
the front ? and from the pulpit the old
minister, with sword and gun, led the
wfcjfcto the aid of the others, who were
beginning to give ground before the of
hideousty-patnted figures who were forc
ing their way through the entrance.
Then came out another side of the
Poritan character. The fierce energy ?
almost joy ? with ' which the colonists
fought was as susprfeingas the stony self
control they had shown but a moment
before. "" Ahead of them all, Parson
Pladley swung his [mighty sword with
cries which betrayed the old horse
soldier of Cromwell and Harrison, fot
such fee had been and of those who fol
lowed him, more thian one had stood in
the ranks of the pifcemea who met the
charges of Prince Rupert's Cavaliers,
and repelled them, poo.
As if he remembered this, the minis

joicing over his victory;
"I have pursued nine Enemies and
overtaken them; neither did I turn
again till they were cWumed.
"I have woundefi tiiem that were
not able to rise; t^iey are fallen un
der my feet.
'For Thou hast
girded me with
strength unto the baitfe; Thou has sub- .
dyed under me ttiose that rose up j
against me.'*
The Indiana were like wolve3 combat
ting* lions. They shrink, wavered and
were pressed back to ihe door, through
it, and outside of it. |Theo, by one "last [
rush, they were brohjen, scattered and
dispersed. They ran In every direction
for the shelter of thi woods; many of
them fell by the way under the pikej
and swords pi tnelr pursuers. Hud^ers
field was saved.
Within the meetings house, now balf
ruined, dim with powder- snoke and
heaped with broken benches, arrow3 and
dead bodie?, the conguegation gathered
around its minister, who, blackened and i
Mood?., with gown toni to shreds and a '
great alash across his: forehead, e>ee
more raised un his voice ? this time in
the glorious strain of tne -ef their tri
umphant hymns.
All joined m it? even the wounded, i
-/who could scarcely lift their heads from
ppe ground, and the qving, who sang
their own breaths away; in the grateful
chorus.
When the injured ha4 been cared for,
and there was once more time for or
dinary matters, Parson; Pladley called j
Abner True to him.
4 'Son Abper, thoa dicht well so cua^

Abler looked np, astoeished.

**T5ut my father willi?" stammered

- V
The Triberof lAttle People Are Wide
ly Separated, But Have Striking
Resemblances? Some Are Warlike,
fORTY years ago no >ne supposed
that tribes of dwarfs existed in
Africa. To day authorities like
Schlichter, Feikin, and others
affirm not only that the ancient writers
were dealing with fact and not fable
when tqey wrote of theawa*fs oi Central
Africa, but also that the world Merited
important; geographical facia from these
nwrfrfW' They -^believe, an did the j
-lite Captain Stairs, that dwarfs found
their way in ancicnt times into Egypt, ;
and that they doubtless gave some infor- j
oation about the "Mountains of the
Moon" and the sources of the Nile. The
theory that dwarfs from the upper Nile -
regions did reach-Egypt is fortified in a
striking manner by the recent discovery
on an old Egyptian monument of the
picture of a dwarf with the name Akka
beside it, which is the name of the most
famous of the Central African dwarf
tribes; but later centuries had no faith
in dwarf tribes; and the testimony of
more than one recant discovery was
needed before the interesting subject
attracted much attention. Some fifteen
explorers have within the past few years
added many facts to our knowledge of
the uwarfs, and though ou* acquaintance
with them is still incomplete, enough
facts have b? en obtained to enible us to
take a general view of these curious lit
tle people. t. '
One group of these pigmies, the
Dokos, have not yet been visited by any
expbrer, and yet it is certain that they
inhabit, approximately, the region as
signed to them on our map south of
Abyssinia. It is hoped that before long
some explorer will visit them in their
home and tell us more about them.
Avanchers, Kxapf and d'Abbadie, all
travelers of authority, have met many of
them, and, independently of one another,
have borne testimony to their existence.
They were described by these men as
having the same characteristics' that
mark the Equatorial dwarfs who were
not known for years after the Dokos had
excited the curiosity of ethnologist.
Professor Hartman in 1876 collected oa
the east coast trustworthy reports abot#
the Dokos, confirming the earlier reports.
The Dokos are said to 'Be dark brown i^
color, extremely ugly in physique, and
about four feet high. They go entirely
without clothing end build most, primi-;
tive huts, which they cover with skins:
or leaves. Their only occupation is'
hunting. They change their quarters as
soon as game becomes scarce, use only
poisoned arrow*, and are expert in catch
ing animus in -fraps and pitfalls. They .
do not know tihe use of fire and eat thp
flesh of serpents and other animals raw;
Dr. Henry-Scfflicfcter, who has collate^
all the evicfctrceat hand relating to these
perfect savages, says, that although;
their countryfcas never been vwited,ii
can safely be laid that "east of tfce Ntld
and to the south of KaSa in the unex
plored territories to the south of the
river Omo there exists a pigmy race
similar iift sise, appearance and habits to
the dwarfs of the upper Nile and Congo
regions." It is probable that tfcey are
scattered among other tribes of different
race and customs like their relatives in
West and Central Africa.
It is now possible to divide the dwarfs
of Africa into four groups? the. pigmies
of West Africa, known as the O'oongo,
Akca, and Bnboogo, who were 8r.it met
in recent times by Da Chaillu; the
dwarfs of the central regions^ known as
the f Wambutti, and Batua, dis
covered and described by Grenfell,. Von
Francois*- Lens, Wolf, Wiseman, and
others; the East African pigmies, known
as the Dokos, though they probably
compose several tribes speaking several
different dialects; and the dwarfs south
of the Congo basin who are the bushmen
and their relatives of South Africa*
Some time ago Mr. Halibarton reported
the discovery of dwarfs among Atlas
Mountains of Morocco, bat the report*
about these alleged pigmies- are sol; yet
sufficiently authenticated to be accepted
as fact.
jfcmong ail these widely separated
dwarf tribes exist resemblance so atrfi* .
ni# that these little peoples arr \Wt |
believed to be t ie branches of &e lime.,
great family that by one cause ofc another
'was separated perhaps centuries f*-~
'until to day its parts tre divided
hundreds ol miles of t?rri
no dwarfs are found*
'gratory, never, remaining
'place, though they do not : o
far out ot their own district. A
all of tiiem arc savages of the very low
I est type, their cunnmg and skill as hun
ters are most remarkable. They live
I among tribes of ordinary Etature w^om
I they supply with dried nisa^rmjd fish in
'exchange for vegetable food, kc^m, aad
other articles. They intermarry onty to
'a small extent with their Jarger neigh
bors, anias a rule are vary shv in their
^nterco^re with other petfp>te3, which
accounts for the fragmentary information
we at present possess about thein.
Beards are developed among them more
largely than among other African tribes.
All of them excel their larger neighbors
id dexterity as archers, in nimblenes?,
and in ingenious devices for catching
game. Every schoolboy ha3 seen pic
tures of native Africans disguising them
selves in ostrich skin3 to get within bo^f
Shot of these shy birds. It is only thtf
'dwarf bushraen who practise this device,.
Livingstone said that the dwarfs he met
killed many lions with their insignifi
cant-Iookicg arrows We know very little
as yet about their languages and dialects,
but ths incomplete vocabularies collected
show that not a few of the words of these
widely severed tribes are identical. '
In a number of respects the various:
dwarf tribes show differences of some
importance. In Central Africa the' I
Tikki-Tikki dwarfs are a little taller,
have darker skins, more vigorous limbs,
and are covered with fe ver but coarser ,
hairs than the Akka, -who live a little j
north of them. The Akka, on theotbes j
-fcand. arc a iittle taller thin the Obongo j
in West Africa. The average height of !
adult men among the Obongo is four
feet throe inches, while the average
among the Akka men is about four feet
seven inches. The Obongo are probably j
the smal'est dwarteiti Africa. Tbe tribes ;
differ m colo: from light bro *rn to black.
Beards are a feature oi all the dwarfJ
WO /Wlifll* J
Hm onjf'aome ot ttem^ fcniie among [
others the beard is quite long, particu- !
among the Batua south of the i
Congo. i
~The dwarfs or the central regions, the
Akka, Wambuiti, Tikki-Tikki *nJ!
Batua, form the most important group
of African pigmies. They are aii war
like, and few of the tribes around them
1 have given explorers so much trouble i
a3 the li-'tle fclks, who have dogged
their f'carav-.ns, skulking in toe forests
or juggle where tbeifecan hardly be seen,
climi^Jns the tree* them- i
selves out on the iimbs with the agility
of monkeys, and from this vantage place
showering'1 poisoned arrows upon
the enemy tielfl*r. |? Explorers tell of the
Batna rrinjpng frt)m branch to branch,
as trapeze -performers take flight from
one bar to aectber.; Grenfell and Von
Francois were astoundeaio see the Batua
scramble out on boughs overhanging trie
rivers until tbe limb* bend low beneath
their weight- The se Batua tribes ettend
over the whole southern part of the
Congo basin, and doubtless much ad
j Visional information about them will be
brought home ?by future itplorers;
' Very little Is known Of them it present
except the feet of their existence.
Sehlitcher says that, like the Akka and .
the Wamoutti, their intercourse with
the various tribes of ordinary stature
tmong whom they live is usually ftf a
ftjendly nifttte* i&rtly beeadse the Bantu
gibes ate ftfihdd of tbeat and partly
because the pigmies supply these
tribes with fieahi and sides in et
jhange for vegetable- food, cook
ing pots, and other articles that may be
?egarded as among the tarori? of Afri
?n pigmy life. Moreover, tbe^.are
shoroughly at home in theioreat, amah
ire, therefore, valuable to their' Ba?tu
iriend? as spies and scouts in time of
'ends and warfare. The sites of their
sncampaentu and. villages are always
sarefuPy seiected to prevent surprise,
tnd Stanley describes theif daily life as
feing similar to that of the fitntft p#ac
at! on among whom they live? The
vomen do all the domestic work, erect
(he beehive huts, collect wood andlyege
iable food, watch the fires, and dry the
neat. The men spend most' of their
dme in hunting or ia birtefing with
seighboring tribes. They usually speak
he dialects of their neighbors, but all
travelers say that they also have a dis
anct language of their own, of which
*e have little knowledge* j
It is now very, generally believed that 1
til these dwarf tribes are the remnant of j
he original population of Africa, who,
feany centuries a^o, were decimated and
widely scattered by the intrusion "bf
| ftronger peoples. While there is no di
rect evidence' proving this hypothesis,
&ere are circumstances which give it
auch strength, and among them is the
improbability that the various scattered
pigmy tribes could have immigrated into
lerritories already occupied by the Bantu,

J morning. October 12, 149?, a gun from
Finta signaled "land ahead* Thrsius
lay to and the boats were lowered, and
jtain Christopher Columbus first stepped
?n the shore amid the song : of birds and
air a surge ot redolence and took pos
>ion in the name of the Father, and the
rSon and the Holy <Jho6t
So the voyage that began with the sacra^
ment ended with "Jldria in Bxcelsts D?x
From that day onward you say there can
be nothing for Columbus btit honor re^
waMsi raphsodiesi palAoes and ^orld wide
applause k 'No! noi On his wiiy back to
Spain the ship was lo wrenched by the
tempest add so threatened with destruction
that he rtrote a brief account Of his discov
ery and pdt it in a cask and threw it over
board that the world might not lose the ad
vantage of his adventures. Honors awaited
him on the beach, but he undertook a second
voyage, and with it came all maligning and
persecution and denunciation and poverty.
He w*& called a land grabber, adiar, a
cheat, a fraud, a deceiver of Nations,
Speculators robbs 1 him of his goal name,
courtiers depreciated his discoveries, and
there came to him ruined heal til and im;
prison ment and c bains; of wiilc'j he said
while be rattled them on bis wrists, ' i
will wear them as a memento ot the grati
tude of princes/' Amid keen appreciation
of the World's abusj andj60ielty, aud with
body writhing in tbe tortures .of gout, he
groaned out his last words, "In man us
tuas Domine commendo spirjtuTi meum

Whit .most/impresses me in all that
. wondrous liWf which for tbe next twelve
months we will be commemorating . by ser
mon and song and military parade and
"World's Fair and congfees of Nations, is
something I have never heard stated, and
that is that the discovery of America was a
religious discovery and In the name of
God. Columbus, by the study of the proph
ecies, and by what Zechariah and Micah and
Davil and Isiah had said about tha "ends of
the earth," was persuade! to go oUt and find
the "ends of the earth," and he felt himself
called by God to carry Christianity to th?
"ends o: the earth/'
Atheisin has no right here; infidelity has
no right here; vagabondism has no right
here. Aud as God is not apt to fail in any
of His undertakings (at any rat? 1 have never
hear J of His having anything to do with a
failure), America is going to be Gospelixed,
and from the Golden Gate or Cali
fornia to tbe Narrows of New York harbor,
and from the top of North America to the
foot of South Am?rica, from Bering straits
to Cape Horn, this is going to be Immanttel's
land.
A divine influence will yet sweep the con
tinent that will make iniquity drop like
flacked lime, and make the most blatant in
fidelity declare it was only joking when it
said the Bible was not true, and the worst
atheism announce that it always did be
lieve in the God of NeMonc ^ r
It would not do for our world in its loet
end ruined state to have communication
with other worlds. It would spoil their
morals. But wait until this world is fully
redeemed, as it will be, and then perhaps
interstellar correspondence may I e opened.
Tbe great Italian navigator also impresses
me with the idea that when one does a
good thing he cannot appreciate its ramifi
cation?. To the moment of his death Co
lumbus never knew thai.be bad discovered
j America, but thought that Cuba was a part
I of Asia. He thought tbe Island Hl*
peniola was the Opbih of Solomon. He
thought he had only opened a new way to
i old Asia. Had he known what North and
South America were and aiv, and that he
had found a country threa thousand miles
wide, ten thousand miles long, of seventeen
million square miles au1 four times as large
as Europe, the happiness woukPh*re
too much for mortal mtn o mdur^.
He had no idea that the ti ne would come
when a Nation of sixty million people on
this side of the sea would be joined by all the
i intelligent Nations on the other side th
I for the most part of a year reciting his '
ftfatful deeds. It took caoturiee to rev^
' result of that one trans Atlantic voyage,,
.Hwhen Manhattan <?> and was sold '
Dutch for twenty-* dar dollars nelthe*s ?j?y
who sold or bought could have foreseen
Hew York, tbe commercial metropolis of
America, that now stands on it. Can ? man
who preaches a sermon, or a woman who
distributes tracts, or ateachsr who instructs
a class, or a passerby who utters encourag
ing words realize the infinitudes of useful
result? i
Every move you make for God, howtver
insignificant in your own eyes or in the
or others, touches worlds larger the efce
Columbus discovered. Why talk ?feoat un
important things? There ar^no animpor*
tant things. Infinity is made up of tnfint*
tesmaia. ' \ I
After the battle of Copenhagen, Nelson, ' |
the Adnrira1, went into a hospital and baited T I
at tbe bed of a wonndei sailor who had lost y,
his arm and said, Welti Jack, what is the
matter with vou?-' and /the sailor replied,
"Lost my right arm, sfcur honor,1' and NeW

.iebeered tbe entire hospital.
