iE? A PASTOR':
jUULxJLxJLSLyJLSLP^
During n certain period, lasting
about three years, ir any one had
asked whnt. was the chief feature of
the village of Harpersville he would
have been told it was gossip and
scandal. It had come to such a point
at last that hardly any two families
were on speaking terms, and moved
away In disgust.
? The social state of affairs could
not have been much worse when Rev.
Henry Rates received a call to fill
?Ihn pulpit of one of the two churches.
. lie was a man of 30. and single, ami
he promised to be popular. It wasn't
' a month, however, before there were
stories floating around to his detri?
ment. He had come from the west
and It wus said that his congregation
hod been pleased to get rid of him.
and there were other sly statements
and Innuendoes circulated to make
his position uncomfortable.
There is more or less gossip in
every village in the land, but as to
who starts it. is always one of those
things that can't be found out. Mrs.
White hears it from Mrs. Black, and
Mrs. Black from Mrs. Green, and Mrs
Green from Mrs. Brown, and so it;
goes, and the' fountainhead Is seldom
located. ? |
When the Rev. Bates came to find
out what a hotbed he had got into I
he cut short his sermons to do a lit?
tle outside work. When he came to
delve into the situation lie was more
thun astonished. There wns just one
single woman left in Harpersville who
hadn't been talked about to her detri?
ment, and she was an old maid named
Sarah Lee. She was not only an old
maid, hut was extremely homely, and
the pastor hadn't been Investlgatinp
long before he thought he had located
the. fountain-head. In another weel
ho was sure of it.
The old maid was not a churcl
member, but the pastor called on her
just, the same, and threw out broad
hint.s that the gossip and the scanda
lizer would have hard work to squeeze
' Into the better land when (ho time
came. Sarah agreed with him, ant'
two days later cooked up another
canard.
She was in command of the situa?
tion up to a certain point. She war
'-well-to-do. and she -bod-wealthy rein
Uves to stand by her. The minister
saw that he must go slow and bide
his time. There are clergymen who
?study the subject of religion alone.
There are others who studv human
nature as well. The Rev. Bates was
one" of the latter.
"? "An old'maid," he reasoned. "It's
a young woman who has been over
' looked in the scramble or get left in
tho shuffle.' This fact had soured her
temper and made her nervous and
jealous. Tho only way she can get
even Is to use her tongue. She is
cbawn.on all her sex and on the mar
rW? men of tho other. The tongue
of one old maid con Btlr up more mis
^chief than five ministers can smooth
over.* "'
When the pastor had reasoned that
far he took a rest for a few min
.ntes. and then continued:
"What' is the remedy for a tattling,
gossiping, slandering old maid? Re?
move tho cause and the disease is
cured. In other words. If she can be
'married off; the snirit or spite will
..he laid and she will have no reason
(to' interfere with the peace of mind
Jiof others."
5 Tim lino of reasoning was up-to
date and the philosophy weighed full
sixteen ounces to the pound. One
.may reason a thing to a logical con
elusion, however, and yet find thnt
only.ono difficulty has been removed.
'.JThe Rev. Bates was pitted asainst
Sarah Lee. It was Lee >??> Bates.
He--realized that he would have to
go dt the end of the year or Sarah I
Lee would have to he provided with
a husband. Not only was the instinct
of self-preservation appealed to. but
if the ouestion had been submitted
to ? any lay mind the answer would
have been that one minister was
worth ten times as much to any com?
munity as an old maid. Tho Re?
Bates did not turn conspirator. It
takes two to conspire, and he did nor
take any ono Into his counsel.
His very firBt move almost brought
'nboht his downfall. He made a sec?
ond call on Miss Lee and during that
call he brought the conversation
around to the subject of matrimony.
It was the duty of men and women
to marry; - the world would be. a sav?
age desert without homes, race sui?
cide would end in a state of barbar?
ism. For good reasons of her own.
he1 supposed, she had neglected this'
great dutv; but he hoped and trusted
that those reafcons would soon be re?
moved. He himself was single, but
he was happy to state?
Before ho could make his statement
the .old maid was in bis arms, or
would have, been if he had not quickly
Increased the distance between them.
She made it pretty plain that she was
wllljng to be his'n. and would do her
best to make life happy for him
When ho closed the conversation by
saying that he was engaged to a lady
in the West, ho was almost turned out
doors. -and'Miss Leo started three or
four- new stories about him.
The pastor, folt sure that he had
IruHt 'Jfcho-; kev-hotOr however, and a
loelfcfoi^ two. later be was writlnc: a
?fter to an aenuaintance In his for?
ger parish. The man he wrote to
las. .not a church member. He was
{i -o|d bachelor who raid pew-rent,
ntjrlbuted to tho heathen, attended
inday school picnics nnd let it go
that" The paster had once talked !
With,him on the subject of mn'rimonv.;
#|&d -had been given to understand
Bat^Tthere had been no marriage be-1
cause tho right woman had not been |
found.
"Referring to a subject once dis- j
cussed between us," wrote the Rev. <
Bates, "let me say that there is a j
v.?litig; woman resident here who'
^?eorha to have many of the ouallfiea
HPna-to fit her for wife-hood. Thnt
Is', she has the host, of health is worth
sfxyernl thousand dollars, and she has
assured mo that she would do her
bcst!;to make a husband happy. Were
S strategy j83 3
j you to pay me u visit and meet her,
i she might prove to bo the one yon
: long have sought. Did you not know
j my radical ideas on the subject of
I race suicide l should not have men
' ttoned this matter to you. While I
I mentioned that the lady ? had money.
! it was only incidentally, ami that fact
I will have no undue Influence, l trust."
Ten days latfcr. Mr. .lames Perkins
? api>carcd in Harpersvlllo as an old
acquaintance and the guest of the
I clergyman. The Rev. Hates did not
I boast of being a hustler, but within
twenty-four hours, he had Introduced
his guest to Miss Leo. Mr. Perkins
had no reputation us a hustler, but
within forty-eight hours he was speak?
ing words or flattery that made the
old maid smile like a Juno day. She
couldn't forego what she had come to
believe was her privilege, however.
She told Mrs. Jackson, and Mrs. Jack
son told Mrs. Taylor, und Mrs. Taylor
told Mrs. Bel-ec and the rest of the
town that she believed Mr. Perkins
had had two wives and killed them
both by smothering them with a pil?
low. The story reached the parsonage
and the oars of the guest within a
day. and the guest was wroth, but the
good pastor sat down with him and
a rented:
' James, tin' gossip of women is as
the breeze that blowcth. (live it no
heed. I incidentally learned today
thai the exact amount of wealth pos?
sessed by Miss Lee is about SI2.000.
and all in bonds drawing fair Inter
?st. I am also assured that she Is a
great worker in her own home, has
no extravagant habits, and that she
would have no objection to a home
In the great and boundless West.
Perhaps I should not have mentioned
the exact sum of money, hut 1 know
von will receive if as only incidental.
James?only incidental. If there h
a marriage I hope and trust that It
may he founded on love alone. 1
shnll be bnsv with my sermon 1o
nlght, and should you desire to call
on Miss Lee I shall not miss you
for a couple of hours."
There was no hustling on the part
of the Rev. nates or Mr. James Per?
kins, but two weeks after his arrival
In Harpersville. Mr. Perkins entered
the minister's study one evening with
i Hand smile and an extended hand
and said.
"My dear old friend, congratulate
me. I am the happiest man in the
state."
"Has?has something happened?"
"Something lias. Sarah has prom?
ised to be mine, and she has set. the
marriage day for only six weeks
ahead. How can I ever thank you
for bringing us together?"
Something like a smile appeared at
the corners of the pastor's mouth,
but. of course, he let it spread no
farther. When he found that the
happy couple were to go west to live
he tendered his heartv congratula?
tions and likewise offered up his
thanks mentally. The marriage came
off, the old maid became a wife and
Harpersville knew her no more. Then
the calm that settled down was in?
deed blessed. No more gossip-no
slander?no lying. In place of them
peace, harmony and contentment. And
If the conscience of the Rev. Rates
ever pricked him lie hnd but to say
to himself:
"Isn't It better to marry off one old
maid than to have a thousand people
made unhappy?"
TWILIGHT.
The shadows deepen in the glen,
A cow's faint lowing far away.
The quail's last notes of sad farewell,
Doth murk the passing of th ? day.
Now dips the sun behind the hills,
And soon the twilight gather:! fast
The stars show forth their tende,'
gleam.
And weary nature sleeps at last.
How sweet the summer evenings are,
How soft the gloaming of Mielr
tight,
As free from every anxious care
Imagination takes its flight.
We L-uild our airy castles then,
Our thoughts run on with rare de?
light.
We catch the threads of life's sweet
strain,
In the hush that's born 'tween day
and night.
The silvery moon conies o'er the.
trees,
A beauteous vision to our sight,
A song floats idly on the breeze.
And so we pass from day to night.
?Richard W. Rice, in Baltimore
News.
Big Ed. Walsh Only
Pitcher to Fan Keeler.
Big Ed. Walsh, of the Chicago
Americans, has another claim to fame'
aside from being a matinee idol and
the star pitcher of the world's cham?
pions. It is indeed seldom that Wee
Willie Keeler, the hard-hitting right]
fielder of the New York Americans, j
fans out. Only twice last season did
Keeler wend his wny back to the!
bench on strikes and both times
Walsh caused him to whiff three
times. Keeler has gone through sev?
eral years of his big league career
without striking out, and had it not !
been for Walsh and Iiis "spit" ball
ho might have repeated the feat last
season.
Up and until July Keeler had a
clean record, nnd It looked as if he
might go through without, a black
spot. It was on Sunday, in that mem-j
orable 0-to-O-ten-inning battle be
j tween Walsh and Chesbro that Keeler
jumped into the list of strlke-outs. I
Just four days later Walsh repeated
the feat in a game at New York. It
was the elusive "spit" hall that cans-,
ed Willie to go down to defeat. No
other pitcher succeeded in outguess-'
Ing Willie during the season.
Persistent and Specific Reports
Concerning Equitable Galls Forth

PRESSURE AGAINST PENNSYLVANIA
Intimations of Another Note Issue

fliv Associated Press.)
NEW YORK. Feb. 19.?The Boiling
of stocks today was in volume and
was the occasion of an unusually
i largo number of rumors coming Into
circulation In tin* neighborhood of the
stock exchange. Many of these prov?
ed unfounded anil none were actually
verified during the session of the ex?
change.
This' situation offered the alterna?
tives of supposing these rumors were
afloat with a sinister puri>ose to force
prices lower in the interest of tho
bear party or that they represented
the blind groping after the real causes
of the selling.
The most persistent and effective
cause of these rumors had to do with
the arfairs or the Equitable Life As?
surance Society and they became so
Specific and so confident in their
form that the president of the Equita?
ble was led to Issue a formal denial
or them. Recovery set In after the
issuance or this disclaimer.
Tlio pressure against Pennsylvania
was directly traceable to the Intima?
tions or another note issue, the an?
nouncement or which was made for?
mal during the day. The Importance
of the operation was modified by the
fact that or (he total Issue or $00.00(1.
000, nil but $10.000,000 Is designed
for the extension of notes alrendy out
standing, the $50.000,000 so provided
for maturing Noveml>er 1.
The report of the terms or the is?
sue caused a violent rebound in Penn?
sylvania ami added to the recovering
tendency elsewhere which followed
the statement from President Morton
of the Equitable Company. The re?
covery was held fairly well to the
closing, but considerable losses re?
mained at some points of the list.
Money was stronger, lenders being
influenced by the terms at which the
corporation notes are placed. Bonds
