HINISIEItS IN C0» GET NEW EXPERIENCE

Pastori of Local Churches Get Close "VjP View of Various Phases of Life In Terre Haute.

The recent idea £f the Terre Haute S'^ Ministerial assoaatio/i of sending one v pf its members to- each session of

City Court is proving popular among the ministers, and according to a rnalority of them, subjects for many good themes are secured during each session of court. In the last three weeks, the period in which Various faninisters have attended both xnorning.and after-. i.oon sessions of court, a great number of eases have been called before Judge .Taul R. Shafer, so that the attend3ng ministers havk® been givei\ an ia'deal variety, and have been given a view of the seamy side of life's curtain, and each Sunday from their pulpits are able to tell their cor.gregalions something of iife as it appears in the raw, and as it^appears in City j\ Court, the melting pot of Terre Haute. y During tho visit of one of the ministers, an old man, the sunshine gone from his life, his step feeble and his features drawn to an almost repulsive aspect, tvas -brought befero Judge

Shafcr on a charge of vagrancy. There in itself wan a problem that had no

easy solution, the minister looked on with wonder as th»» judge pondered over tho case. Technically there was guilt, for the aged man had been picked up the night before wandering upon I he streets, hungr: and without a place to sleep. He was a vagabond v., and admitted as much to the court. He told tho old, old story of ungrateful •children and a life ot wandering and laoor, ending as n vagabond before the ?, bar of justice. To send the old man to a state institution, to take his libarty away from him would in the sense of humanity, be a blessing, but in tho'sense ef freedom, be unjust

v Acting from his heart and forgetting the statute books Judge Shafer permitted the man to go on his way, friendless and* penniless. The court -f could do no more. The minister looked j*f v»«, his heart filled with sympathy but i. fielplets, further than following the aged man into the corridor and slipping a coiit into his hand with a blessing.-

The next- 'Session of court, the -"scenery is all changed, the same stage hands are there but the actors and principals are different and another minister sits near the press table highly interested in the procedure of sort's tag the chaff from the wheat. A well dressed woman is called before the bar. The minister is surprised when hf finds that she is a member of his church and is usually interested in all uplift movements and church affairs. -He starts to arise from his seat tc go '.•..to her side but refrains, waiting to see

v.hat the charge agairfst her may be. It is provoke, or provocation, the smallest of all mi.sdemanors and punishable by only a small One- Tho minV ister thinks only a neighborhood row rests easy as the trial proceeds. The rPFt. ea.sy as the trial proceeds. The prosecuting witness is called to the witness chair front of the judge, and tells why the charge has been preferred/'"$ihe recites oath for oath, the words that hnve been uttered to her by the defendant in her passionate flt of anger.- The words were such as i might be used by'a person of the un'idervvorld. each one a new and different form of profanity. Vulgarity was addy:«d to the string, and taken altogether

some of the most vile testimony ever i heard in the court room was given. Judgment

WHS

withheld by the judge,

as the charge was provoke and not

profanity, but thinking hard as he left, g: the attending minister sought a solution for\the course-of the woman who on Sundays -attended church and on wtek days sp^nt the great, part of her

time in "cussing" her neighbors. So It goes. Each minister learns R)hjething ne'w and different, and sees

TOOK OUT OREADFUL SORENESS. Whsn the kidneys are weakened or overworked so that they fail to filter and throw all impurities out of the blood, the poison remains in the system and backache, soreness, lameness and rLcumatic pains arc likely to develop^j. iifrg.

Dad blushed and his wifa ."looked very much fussed. "She was just fpoling with me," he atamrardr "All rigTif,' dad. but I decline to be fooled wioh," and then I turned to dad s wife who by this time had left the arm of his chair and gone back to my mother's place at-the head of the table.

That place had always been sacred. Even I, when I had gsown old enough to take the care of the house on my young shoulders, had never sat in it, but we had always had a plate laid and a chair placed s though we expected it to be used at any time. And it was now being used by a stranger. I could not help a feeling of almost hatred for the two people who had been so recently forgetful of everything but themselves. 'Glad to see you down.

MY FATHER SIDE-STEPS.

"There, there, old dear," said the girl dad had married as dad had succeeded in biting the strawberry and the red juice waa running over his chin. "You must not be so greedy, and besides it is not dignified for the commissioner of police to be so frivolous." "The commish is human, honey," said father sentimentally, "and when a man can get both strawberries and kisses from the sweetest ksid girl in the world trust him to fret them whether they are to be picked ih* his own bailiwick or outside." "I'm afraid your daughter's husband is picking strawberries in soma one else's garden," said the girl. ,1 would not stay there and-listen-to nything about ray husband so I walk through the door in time to intercept dad's frown. "What about my husband picking strawberries.'' I asked.

casual. "Vi-let tells me she has alteady met you and I am glad for 1 want you to be good friends. "I told her that you had more sense than any other girl I ever knew, except herself."

All the while dad was talking his wife gaid nothing. She seemed to be hoping* that his conversation would mal^e me forget what she said about "picking strawberries," but I w&s not to be put off in such a fashion. "I gathered,"' I said, as I seated myself at the table with what disrnity I could muster, "that Mrs. Lafferty

acquainted with my husband." Dad looked at. "Don't be so .snobish, Margaret Anne," he said with sudden anger. "My wife's name Is 'Vi'let'." "Oh I understood from her yesterday that it was Maggie."

The moment that I said this I wished that I had not and I was double annoyed because I felt that it was perhaps the very thing the girl, sitting there in my mother's chair, would have done under the same circumstances.

I need not have worried, however, for the speech seemed not to have reached her, at least she did not mind. "Your father liked Vi'let best," she said, and smiled at me broadly, and I gave her the honor of the first touch down.

I still looked at my father's wife enquiringly and after a pause, that was getting rather embarrassing, she said, "Oh, yes, I knew your husband slightly—not as tvell as the other girls in the Girlv Girl company knew him." "What did you mean by youf 'picking strawberries' remark about him?"

She looked at dad appeahngly, but he. man-like, declined to help her out. "¥cu nee I had a letter from a friend
