AMEN! BROTHER BEN.

Are You the Same Man Who is Referred to?—If so, Move on to the Next Town.

Rev. George S. Benn made his appearance at the Baptist church and one or two other churches Sunday and spoke in the interest of the "Chapel Yacht Association" of which he is president. His object is to collect money for the purpose of building a large sea-going vessel, the cabin of which will be fitted up as a chapel to hold seven hundred people. With a crew of mission workers it will vioit all American seaports, villages, islands and remote points in need of mission work. Rescue work will be carried on in the great cities, feeding the hungry, clothing the destitute, and in fact the yacht will be equipped to any point from which Satan has a vantago ground, soj 6ays the card which Brother Bonn carries with him and on the other side we learn that the association is located at Jeffersonville, Ind., and that several reverend gentlemen including the lamented Rev. J. It Spainhower, of Covington are also, officers of the association.

Brother Benn's object is no doubt a worthy one and he sets it forth both on the card and by word of mouth in colors alluring to the missionary minded. He is a well spoken, genteel appearing man of about 35 years. Everything seems all right and may be. But before giving up their coin the good people of Crawfordsville would like to know if this George E. Benn is identical with the George E. Benn referred to in the following article from the Journal and Messenger of August 18, the official organ of the Baptist denomination:

CONCERNING G. E. BENN.

To All Whom This May Interest: WHEREAS, One George E. Benn is going among the Baptist churches of Michigan collecting money, professedly for the purpose of building a chapel boat, or gospel ship, asserting that the project is indorsed and sustained by a chapel boat society of Aurelius, Mich., respecting which some of us arG receiving inquiries,

Therefore, We, the Baptist church of Aurelius, Mich., in church meetiDg assembled, August 0, 1S98, make the following statement: There is no organization or society known to us having for its object the building of a chapel boat or gospel ship. We do not know of any resident of this community having had charge, at anv time, of any funds for the building of any such boat. We do not commend George E Benn or his project for a chapel boat, as set forth by him. Neither do we commend his methods.

Voted that this statement be sent to the Journal and Messenger for publication. T. J. GRIXNEI.L, Church Clerk.

Perhaps there is another George Ii Benn working the chapel yacht racket up in Aurelius, Mica., whose methods are deserving of censure and the Geo. E. Benn, of Jeffersonville, is another man whose methods are all right. The people merely want to know and of course Mr. Benn will have no objections to giving an account of himself. They would also like to know if Mr. Benn is related to the George E. Benn who left the pastorate of the Attica Baptist church in a manner not highly creditable to himself. Mr. Benn gives the First National Bank of JeiYersonville as treasurer of the association. In response to a telegram the cashier of this bank said that so far as they knew, the association was all right but that they were investigating.

Tough oil the 'Stjuire.

The Kill Long arrested last week in this city charger! with stealing a watch from th« noinrif us Cora Mullen, was not 'Squire Win. H. Long, of Ladoga. The Bill, who was arrested, has not been in Ladoga for some time, so the Ladoga people have been shooting-it into the good 'Squire ever since last

week JOVKN-AL came to town with

formed that he i-3 not the Bill Long who is ehuiumy with tho coy ar.d chubby Cora of the Green street llats.

Saturday Robert lirenlee, aged I t, was arrested and put in jail for steal-' ing the horte of William Quillen. lfe is still in jail and will doubtless be kept there until the authorities can determine what to do with him. The lad is not bright and thinks no more of stealing than a chicken thinks of picking up grain in the barn yard, lie eiinply takes what strikes his fancy and considers it all right. His parents had him sent to Piainfield once but be was discharged from that institution as being incapable of receiving inbtruotion.

House ltobbeil.

The only case of house robbing reported last week came to the police last Friday. On Thursday the family of roadmaster.Riley, of the Big Four, was absent from the family home, several milaB southwest of town. Robbers entered and stole a watch, two revolvers and some clothing. So far the police have obtained no clew to the guilty parties.

BILLIAM.

By S. E. 0R0CJKETT.

lOopyrlght, 1897, by the Author.] "No, father," said Billiam, with decision, "I am not half good enough to make a parson of. You must give the living to Harry. Ho will make a first rater. Ho is all tho time mousing about among books."

Billiam and his father were standing together in tho rectory garden, which looked over the beautiful vale of St. John. Helvellyn slept abovo them, stretched out liko a lion with his head low between his paws. The lake glimmered beneath all, dreamy in tho light midsummer haze. Bees hummed in thu old garden, and the flowers on which they made themselves drunk reeled and shook with the press of tho revelers.

Tho old rector of Applethwaito was dead. This day of midsummer had been liis funeral day. An old man full to the brim of years and dignities, he had lived all his life, under tho wing of his brother, the squire, rooted safely in tho family living, dining every Sunday and Thursday at tho hall and reading his 100 sermons in a rotation as settled and regular as that of tho crops. But now tho old order was changed, and, according to the squire's providential arrangement, tho new order was to be—Billiam.

His real name was William, with something very distinguished after it. Yet nobody thought of calling him anything hut Billiam except only the squire, when, as at present, Billiam and ho differed in opinion. Then ho said, "William Reginald Setoun Ormithwaite, will you dare to disobey your father?" And Billiam hung his head, for he knew that a day was coming when he would.

At school he had been called Billiam for tho reason that a "Yorker" is called a "Yorker," because it was obvious that he could bo called nothing else. The boy whoso Latin verses he did said to him: "Now, goon, old Billiain hurry up. I want to go out to tho playing fields to smite that young toad Scottminer for making faces at me and making in laugh in chapel." So to save time Billiam gave him his own copy of verses and saw the plagiarist pass to the head of the form next day on the strength of Billiam's iambics. Yet that boy never even thought of thanking the author and origin of his distinction. Why should he? It was "only old Billiam.

Billiam failed also in gaining thelovo and respect of his masters to tho extent which, upon his merits, was his due. For one thing, he was forever bringing all manner of broken down sparrows, maimed rabbits and three legged dogs into tho school and, if possible, even into tho dormitory. Then smells of diverse kinds arose and bred quarrelsome dissension of a very positive kind. The house master came up one night to find Billiam with an open knife in his hand, driving fiercely into a throng of boys armed with cricket bats and wickets, whereupon he promptly dashfed at the young desperado and wrested the knife out of his hands. "Do you wish to murder somebody?" cried the house master, shaking him. "Yes," said Billiam stoutly, "if Lowther throws my white mice out of the window."

No further proceedings were taken, becauso upon examination Billiam proved to be scored black and blue with the wickets of his adversaries. He was, however, from this time forth given a bedroom upon the ground floor, with a little court in front which looked upon the laundry, and here Billiam, still unrepentant, was allowed to tend his menagerie in peace, provided always that it di'1 not entirely destroy the sanitation of tho school. But when the governing committee came to inspect the premises tho head master carefully piloted them past the entrance of the court wherein dwelt Eiiliam, keeping well to 11 windward of it.

Anybody elso would havo been promptly expelled, but Billiam's father was a very important person indeed, and tho head master had known him mri-.

mately

the information that "Bill Long- of possibly have expelled Billiam. Tho Ladoga had been pulled." 11 has been very ruffians who whacked him wiih great fun for the boys but it has been cricket bats would straightway have death for the 'Squire and he is natur-

ally desirous that the public be in-! Billiam father tried him at Oxford, but, though Billiam staid his terms, he would have none of it. So when tho rectory fell vacant it seemed all that couid bo done was to make arrangements by which Billiam would succeed his uncle. The Right Honorable"

A Sail Case. 1

Reginald i:ctor.n Crmilkwailc,Eiiliam's "pater," saw no difficulty in the matter. He had been at Eton and Christchurch with the bishop of Lakeland,* and tho matter lent itself naturally to

this arrangement. Every one felt this to he tho final solution of a most difficult problem. Everybody even remotely connected with the family was consulted, and all expressed their 'several delights with relief and alacrity, but in tho meantime nothing was said to BiJh.im, who had a setter with a broken leg upon his mind and so lived mostly about the kclil)Cia

all(] femelled

ment. But when his father told tho proximate rector that he must begin to prepare for the bishop's examination and go into residence for some months at St. Abbs' famous theological college (called in clerical circles "Tho Back Door"), Billiam most unexpectedly refused point blanK to nave anytnmg to do with the plan. He would be no purson he was not good enough, he asserted. Harry could havo it. The Right Honorable Reginald Setoun Ormithwaite, ex-cabinet minister and P. C., broke into a rage almost as violent as when his party leader proclaimed a new policy without consulting him. He informed Billiam (under tho designation of William Reginald Setoun) how many different kinds of fool ho was and told

this last chance to establish himself in life, ho need expect no further help or consideration from him.

Billiam listened uneasily, and with a deep seated regret obvious upon his downcast face. It was pitiful, he thought privately, to see so dignified and respectable a man as his father thus losing control of himself. So Billiam fidgeted, hoping that the painful scene would soon be over so that he might get back again to the lame setter at tho kennels.

When Billiam's father had at once concisely and completely expressed his opinions as to Billiam's sanity, Billiam's ingratitude, Billiam's disgraceful present conduct and unparalleled future career, and when he had concluded with a vivid picture of BiJiiam's ultimate fate (which was obviously not to be drowned) he paused, partly in order to recover his breath and partly to invite suggestions from the culprit. Not that he expected Billiam to answer. Indeed -ho held it: almost an insult for one of his children to attempt to answer one of his questions at such a moment. "What havo you to say to that, sir? V* hat excuse have you to make? Answer nie that, fir. Silence, sir, I will not listen to a single word. You may well stand abashed and silent. Havo I brought a sou into the world for this— kept u, given you an expensive education only for this?"

So Billiam kept silence and thought hard of the setter down at the kennels. Those bandages ought to be wet again. It was an hour past the time. He kept changing from ono foot to the other upon the gravel walk. "Don't insult mo by jumping about like a hen on a hot griddle," cried his father. "Tell me what you think of doing with yourself, for 1 will no longer support you in idleness and debauchery. "I should like to be a veterinary surgeon, sir," said Billiam, scraping with his toe. "Let that gravel alone, will you—a veterinary devil an Ormithwaite a cow doctor! Get out of my sight, sir, before I strike you with my

cane. And accordingly Billiam went—down to tho kennels to visit tho setter, wondering all the way whether, as the skin was not broken, ho ought to use an embrocation or stick to the cold water bandages.

And this is briefly why Billiam found himself in Edinburgh and established in a nest of unfurnished garret rooms which he had discovered by clianco at tho end of Montgomery street in the Latin quarter of the city. Billiam had £130—£100 of which had been given him by his father with the information that it must see him through a year and £30 which his elder brother Herbert, captain in the One Hundred and Tenth hussars, had sent him. "Young fool, Billiam—always was, said Captain Herbert. "Guess he's pretty tightly off.'' And with that ho stuffed into the envelope the £30 which he had set apart as a sedative for his tailor. "The young blackguard will need the nioney..moro than old Moses," said the hu^sir.

JJilliam had, to save appearances, compromised on the question of the veterinary surgeon. He was to study hard in order to become an ordinary surgi on and physician of humans. He was enlv to be allowed to conic home oner a ear He had agreed nut to poster his father with requests for more money. Ineviry way Billiam was made to feel that he was the prodigal son and a disgrace to the stock ol' the Orniithwaites of Ormithwaite. "One of the families, sir," said his father, "which have constituted for 300 j'ears the governing classes of. these islands.

So it was in this manner that Billiam took the very modest portion of goods which pertained to him and departed' to the far country of Montgomery street, south side, just where that notable thoroughfare gives npcu the greasy gloom of the .Pkusance. l:n-,y Lilliam spent his living id upon whom tins history lntei.'ni-d ru lJa} b\ ihrj -sindent of medicine Seurned ethj-Lts.

He attended his nseaieal professors upon such days as it was likely that cards would bo called for. And in addition to 1hi* ho procured a certain interim continuity in his studies by "getting a look at another fellow's notes."

Billiam's "piggery" in Montgomery street, as it was called by the few of his comrades who had ever seen its secrets, was something to wonder at. Instead of taking a comfortable sitting room and bedroom in a well frequented and sanitary neighborhood Billiam entered into the tenancy of an entire suit of rooms upon the garret floor of one of the high "lauds" which araa distinctive old quarter of St.

tive feature of

him as an ultimatum that if he refused Leonards. Within this tumble down dwelling

Billiain found himself In possession of fivo large rooms, with wide windows and in some instanoes with skylights also. He was to pay at tho modest rate of £8 in tho half year for tho lot. Billiam counted down his first quarter's rent and wont out to order a brass plate. This cost him 80 shillings, and he had to pay separately for the lettering, which said somewhat vaguely: "Consultation free. Every morning boforo 0 and every evening after G."

This Billiam burnished up daily with the tail of his dress coat, which ho had torn off for tho purpose. "I don't think I shall need it any more," ho said, "so I may as well use it.''

So ho used it. It did very well, being lined with silk. Thou Billiam double bolted tho plato to the door, for ho understood the ways of Montgomery street, and sat down to study the monograph of lien-Dr. Punipenstoek of Vienna upon headaches. Billiam had three chairs to start with —two stiff backed chairs for clients anil an easy chair, which in timo of need could bo leaned up against tho wall. It was a deck chair anil cost 2s. llj^d. at a cheap sale of furniture in Nicholson street. Billiam felt that lie might go that length in luxury.

Billiam had onco possessed more furnituro than this. Ho had a wooden bed which ho had bought in tho Cowgate for -1 shillings and carried tip tho Plcasanco himself, post by post and plank by plauk. Ho only slept upon it one night. The next day he began to cut it up for firewood. It was a good bed, though, ho said, but not for sleeping on. After tho first five minutes it began bito him all over.

So Billiam burned tho 4 shilling bed, and it turned out all right that way. It crackled like green wood as it burned. Presently the fame of Billiam's brass plate waxed great in the land. Dr. Macfarlano, a short winded and tempered man, came upon the announcement quite unexpectedly as ho was puffing his way up the weary, grimy stone stairs to visit tho sister of tho seamstress who lived upon tho other side of the landing from Billiam.

To say simply that Dr. Macfarlano was astonished does considerable injustice to his state of mind. Ho stood regarding the brightly polished, clearly lettered announcement for fully tern minutes. Then ho rang tho bell, and an answering peal camo from just tho other side of the panel, but no one arrived to open, for it was tho middle of tho day and Billiam was at liis classes. Dr. Macfarlane could learn little from the seamstress or her sister beyond the general suspicion that their neighbor upon the other side of the landing was "maybes no verra richt in his mind."

It was not tho .seamstress, but the seamstress' sister, who volunteered this information. "But ho sent us in these," added tin seamstress, who was a palo and oxcecdiugly pretty girl, pointing to s:ew:e nobly plumped purple grapes which laj on a plate on tho little cracked table the bedside. "He'll bo a kind o' young doc'.oi seekin a job, nae (loot," said the sva:.i stress' sister, sinking back on her jil lows, for gratitude was not her stren peiint.

Tho suggestion excited the deicti i, i, ho was a man who had worked hard a. his must uncertain and unremunerativi practice. Besides which ho had a yotuu. family growing up about him. 11", therefore, he was to havo a young iuit rlopei settling in the center of his sphere i.l influence, it was as well to know with whom lie had to contend.

So he called upon Billiam It was (i o'clock in tho evening wl.u.

Mostly, however, tin ru.AMIS a re-pu:l-ful silence. The doctor stood awhile rooted in amazement and did .not take any notice when several of his former patients nodded affably u'-rbss to him.

Presently, iroiiian inner room, mere came forth a html featured man, carrying a largo.hook under his: arm. Bil! followed behind him, his shock of hair tossed and rumpled. Ho was stooping forward and eagerly explaining something to the man. So intent was he upon tho matter in hand that he passed the doctor without so much as noticing hirn. "And I'll look in and see how the pair of you havo got on tomorrow," Billiam said, shaking the hard featured man warmly by tho hand at tho door.

Billiam turned and for the first time looked the doctor fair in tho face. "My naaio is Dr. Macfarlane. I have a practice in this neighborhood," said the physician, "and I should liko tho favor of a few words with you." "Certainly by all means—with

pleasure," replied Billiam. "Ct4me way.'' And tjjey went togetlieronto the second of the Montgomery street garretB. It was nearly as bare of furniture as th first. There was no moro than a table, some bottles and an instrument case, while round tho room, arranged so as tc make tho most of themselves, stood Bil Ham's three chairs. "Take one," said the student politely, but Dr. Macfarlano preferred tc stand till ho knew exactly where hs was. "I havo tho honor of addressing"—, ho said and paused. ""William Reginald Setoun Ormithwaite," said Billiam quietly. "You are a doctor?" queried his vis. itor. "By no means. I am only a student," said Billiam quickly, "but I give these people a hand with anything they brinf along.'' "Do you possess any qualifications?"'' persisted Dr. Macfarlane. "Qualification?" said Billiam, a, littlo perplexed. "Well, I've been patch, ing up dogs' legs and things all my life.' "But, sir," cried tho doctor indignantly, "this is no better than an equivocation. I heard you with my own cars prescribing for tho man who went ou just now—an old patient of my own if I mistako not. And I saw you with these eyes taking a feo from him as hpassed through tho door. Are you aware, sir, that tho latter is an indictable offense?"

Billiam smiled with his usual quietly infinite tolerance. "Dr. Macfarlano," he said, "it may sound strange to you, but tho fact is

\,

lie could often he seen icalkhxj uloiitj the I'leusance. that man camo to consult me about a separation from his wife, and he brought his family Bible out of tho pawnshop to show mo the dates of his marriage and birth of his children. I gave him something when lie went away so that ho would not liee'd to take the Bible back into paw n, at least not immediately. Do you think I need any qualification for that?" "And those people outside?" said the elector, not yet entirely eonviticed. "Will you go round the wards with me?'' said Billiain, smiling brightly and irresistibly.

Withemt another word ho h-d tho way to the door eif the next room. It seemed to the. doctor fuller tlem ever. "Lame dogs this way," said Billiam in a matter ot fact manner, and halt a dozen mm slouched after him. Very deftly Bil'iam laiel out a row of sniiiil shining insuuments upon tho table, with salve, lint, and bandages arranged behind him.

Then he took animal after animal into hishand, set it upon the table, i-i.-s.eel his lingers lightly to and fro ou its he-ael and ar.- a time or two, listened IQ. the owner's vuluble explanations without appealing to notice them, and forthwith price did to deliver a linln cliaieal lecture.
