The Protestant church of Sandy Ucach wifi perched on the top of a cliff, and was only accessible from the lower street by climbing a steep flight of tone stairs a most disagreeable task on a wet day. In this weather-beaten little bullding I waa seated on Sabbath niorning, watching the worshipers take their places in the hlgh-backcd pewa. The service began, and what was my surprise to see lay friend Hen stand up to lead tho Ringing, with all the composure of an old and trained singer. The sweet, glad-toned young voice rang full and clear, and Mm

IIow the Motion ef aa AMgrj Judge Waa Quickly Overruled. In a certain part of West Virginia, some years ago, there was a local court presided ovcr-by an honest old farmer, who in his earlier years had been an attorney at law. The judge was a quick tempered, impatient man, but by no means ungenerous, and possessed of a keen sense of humor. One day while on the bench ho saw in the audience an old negro whom he had engaged to haul some timber from his sawmill near bv, but who had bee n afterward persuaded to do the same kind of labor for another person to the

neglect or the judiciary. As soon. a he caught of his recreant toiler the judge suspended the trial, quitted the woolsack, and approaching tho old African said, with great indignation and a very red face: "Youv old rascal! Why didn't yon haul timber for tae, as you promised to do? You'll nave to be taught a lea son?" The old negro gave one look at the indignan t judge; then he squared off, and, throwing his coat to a bystander, said cheerfully: "Come on. massal Dls ole chile use

a repuoiican senate,, the average of wages in 18W, the year the Walker tariff was enacted, was only 89.3 per cent of what it was in: 1800, after the law had been in operation for fourteen years. In öther wordk, the workman who earned 189. 30 1n 1848 was earning 100 in 1800, and in the same proportion for those earning larger sums.

"They wanted a change." "They gbt it" This is but a variation of a story that wo aro hearing much of in these days of financial stringency. Demagogues aro trying to exact from tho common misfortunes what of capital for their party they can; wreckers lining tho storm-beaten beach gathering tho flotsam. A year ago the Boston Herald report-

Tho same motive would have impelled
