ECK TILL SCRIPTURE ENDEJ.
Parson Turned the Other Cheek and
Than Qrew Belligerent.
RCT. John Smttb, who lately died
In Mexico, Ho., was nearly a centena
rian. He was the confere and chief
eaptlan of Bev. Alexander Campbell
In the establishment of the Reform or
Christian, or "Onmpfoelllte" church.
He was a pioneer preacher far back
In the history of Kentucky. In his
young manhood he wore a coonskin
cap, wtUcb he retained so long after
It had gone out of style that he was
nicknamed "Raccoon John Smith.
The parson was of that class of mus
cular Christians who are eminently
capable of taking cate of themselves,
even in a strenuously belligerent en
vironment. A country bully one time
picked a quarrel with Parson Smitn
and slapped the parson on the side of
the face.
"Whosoever shall smite thee on thy
right elieek, turn to him the other
also," quoted the parson from the gos
pel according to St. Matthew, and
suited his action to the text.
Tbe bully, thinking he hud a "walk
over," so to sjieak. sinot-.- the parson
on tfhe other cheek also.
"Right, thar the scripture stop?."
exclaimed the parson, and "lit in" and
gave tlie bully the drubbing that he
deaerwil.
New Coal Field
in- Mexico.
A eompa!'.- composed principally of
British .an German capitalists has
been formed tor
the
purpose of work­
ing a recently discovered coal field
near Sabinas. in the state of Coahuila,
Mexico. The principal vein is from
seven to eight f»«t 'vide, and underlies
an area of )5,i»O0 a*r.- s. The now coal
field if about 7Vi mtlo* from the Mexi
can International railway.
DEVICE NOT IN DEMAND.
Some Objections to Proposed Tele*
phone Attachment.
A man in Portland, Ore.,
hrs
in­
vented a telephone attachment that
will enable the person at one end of
the wlr6 to see the face of the one
at the other. He csills this an improve*
ment, and seem to thtnk It fills a
long-felt want.
It )thls fiendish devioe should fipd
Its wjay into general use the telepMM
"would become a thing of terror. How
coulq you express your eghtloa ot
Central wMfe her scornful eyes stav
ing into fours. How could you tell a
-dun ^hat you biad gone to Boston If he
couM look at your ta,ce while you sriM
it? How oould you escape, a bore la
the recesses of your club lit he could
catafa you face to face on a wire?
The world owes something to mo*
ern qclence. but the inventors of wire*
less telegraphs and portrait telephones
are overdoing things. In the interest
of the disappearing right of privacy
they 'ought to be kindly but thorough
ly suppressed.—New York World.
A Sufficient Disguise.
Senator Beveridge was talking
about' severe rebukes.
"As severe a rebuke as I know of,"
be said, "was one that a New York
mlUlopaire administered to his son
last winter.
"The son. like many millionaires'
•one, is a hard drinker. He does no
wort Most of. the day he lounges
nt atone one or. other otju* clubs, t#te
lng |i brandy and «oda .every hoar or
so, and in the evening, after a good
deabpf win,* with his, dinner, bo drlaha

his father, he said:

Rockefellers Fine Gardens.
A floral garden, which will be fllle®
^'ith roses, .rare shrubs and foliage,
is now being laid out at Pocantieo
hills at a cost of $50,00J. The plana
of the gardens—there are really three

when they are complete there will be

ixtw USE FOR THE CAMERA.
Fitting of. Clothes by Tailors Done
With Aid of Pictures.
A new method of measuring for tail
ors has been patented in Paris, ac
cording to the St. James Gazette. The
person to be measured is placed be
fore a camera, and between them Is
introduced a network that is photo
graphed at the same time and serves
as a standard. Certain artifices are
necessary to obtain a complete result
thus, the armpits, etc., must be Indi
cated by objects visible from without
and. finally, several views must be
taken from various standpoints. The
subject is also fitted with a sort of
harness which indicates points of
comparison. These points may, how
ever, be marked directly on the per
son instead. The relative positions
of the camera, the network and tbe
subject ace carefully adjusted so that
the subjeet appears always on the
same scale, and then the photograph
is taken from the various necessary
standpoints.
Blue Stockings of To-day.
The last few years have seen mark
ed changes for the better in ike "blue
stocking." She has, after causing
much distress to her relatives and
friends, come to the conclusion that
the "ologies" and pretty frocks are,
after all, not so incompatible as at
one time they seemed, and that her
learning, combined with a pleasing
outward seeming, carries far more
weight than it did when she wore
ehapeles garments and neglected her
coiffure.
The "blue stocking" is indeed glT
lng up the "tailor-made" for festiv#
occasions, the severe tie and collar
and rigidly plain hat which was one
of her phases, and she has begun to
revel witli her more frivolous sister la
frills and furbelows, and a hundred
ptotty things which a comparatively
short period ago she would have felt
It Incumbent upon her to scorn, saya
Woman's Lite.
She is aoqulrlng a taste for the
Joys of suitable attire which marks
the well dressed woman, and she' hag
by no means made the pathway of
learning easier for the rlslng' genem
tlou, whose parents will n6 longer
put stumbling blocks in tbe path now
that eccentricity and a "sweet gill
graduate may be things apart All
mothers and tbe majority of father*
strongly object to seeing their daugh
ters sacrifice looks to learning.
