Edwards, Methodist Episcopal, declared last night that Moses was the first labor agitator. He said that as Moses was the doctrinary anticipator of the Messiah, the principles of Christianity have made the laboring man and labor honored. Dr. Edwards said that the laborer does not appreciate always what Christianity has done for him, and that devotion to its principles should be his first concern. "Labor always gets the worst of it, however," admitted the preacher, "for It Is forced to sell its work at what capital wants to pay for it."

EVANS NOT OFFERED HIGH POSITION

Will Not Be President of Western Harbor Company. New York, Aug. 24. In reply to a telegram sent to the Lake Mohonk Hotel, Lake Mohonk, N. Y., a member of Admiral Robley D. Evans's family denied the statement received from Los Angeles, Cal., to the effect that the Admiral had been offered the Chairmanship of the Los Angeles Harbor Railroad Company, a big corporation, which will practically control the harbor of Los Angeles at San Pedro. It was said the offer had been made Friday, and that no answer had been received. SO DECEPTIVE. Many Richmond People Fail to Realize the Seriousness. Backache is so deceptive. It comes and goes keeps you guessing. Learn the cause then cure it. Nine times out of ten it comes from the kidneys. That's why Doan's Kidney Pills cure it. Cure every kidney ill from backache to diabetes. Here's a Richmond case to prove it: Patrick Mitchell of 412 North Fifth street, Richmond, Ind., says: "My wife thinks Doan's Kidney Pills is a great remedy for backache, and other pains that come from the kidneys. She was weak and miserable for a long time with kidney trouble and suffered a great deal of pain in the back and in other parts of the body. She tried many remedies but did not find much benefit until she began using Doan's Kidney Pills. They helped her from the very beginning of their use and she was soon cured. We both think a great deal of Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

Ilere Is Champ Clark's defense of humor, if it needs one: "The dry-as-dusts solemnly asseverate that humor never did any good. Now. let's see. How did 'Private' John Allen of Mississippi get to congress? Joked himself In. One bit of humor sent him to Washington, a national lawmaker. Opposing him for the congressional nomination was the Confederate General Tucker. They met on the stump. General Tucker closed one of his speeches as follows: '" 'Seventeen years ago tonight, my fellow citizens, after a hard fought battle on yonder hill, I bivouacked under yonder clump of trees. Those of you who remember as I do the times that tried men's souls will not, I hope, forget their humble servant when the primaries shall be held.' "That was a strong appeal in those days, but John raised the general at his own game. 'My fellow citizens,' he said, 'what General Tucker says to you about bivouacking under yonder clump of trees is true. It Is also true, my fellow citizens, that I was a vedette picket and 6tood guard over him while he slept. Now, then, fellow citizens, all you who were generals and had privates to stand over you while y0U slept vote for General Tucker, and all of you who were prirates and stood guard over the generals while they slept vote for Private John Allen. The people caught on, took John at his word and sent him to congress, where he stayed until the world was filled with his renown." Aid For the Explorer. "Peary," said geographer of Chicago, "never started on one of his exploring expeditions without receiving by mail and express all sorts of packages from cranks cowhide underwear, tea tablets, medicated boots and what not "Peary once told me that George Ade a few days before the start of one trip wired him to expect an important package by express. "The package came. It was labeled: " 'To be opened at the farthest point north. "Peary opened it at once, however. It was a small keg, inscribed: " 'Axle greese for the pole.' " Shouldn't Overfeed Hubby. Ilint for young wives who desire to have their husbands retain their boyish, slender figures: In an address at Vienna on the subject of food Professor Karl Van Noorden, one of the greatest medical experts in Europe, uttered an emphatic protest against wives who overfeed their husbands. He declared that the reason so many begin to get fat immediately after they have married is that their wives give them their favorite dishes on every possible occasion. An Inducement.

"Morning Dippy" Is of Train Bringing

"What train is that?" asked the stranger of the car inspector. "Which one do you mean, that short one just in?" "Yes, O, I see it, is on the Grand Rapids & Indiana line." "Why, that's the morning dippy." "Morning dippy, that's an odd name. I've heard trains called 'cannon balls' and engines called 'hoodoos,' but 'dippy, never before." j "That's because you don't know that train as well as we fellows about here do." "No, I don't know it very well, that's a fact as this is the first time I've been in the city and never saw the train before." "I'll tell you how it got that name as soon as I turn the seats in these coaches," and wiping his hands on a piece of waste, the inspector left his inquirer and with feather duster and cloth in hand proceeded on his mission. It was only a few minutes until he returned to the stranger, who had spent the interim in an effort to coax from his imagination an explanation

Divine, Aged 133, Recalls Time When He Held George Washington's Horse

New York, Aug. 24. In a sermon delivered Sunday at Zion African Methodist church in Somervine, N. J., Rev. Mason Brooks, a negro clergyman, said ho is 138 years of age, and remembers having held General George Washington's horse in the road between Somervllle and Raritan. The clergyman said he was born in Cuba in 1770, and was brought to Somerville when a child. He said that he was 10 years old when he held General Washington's horse. He illustrated this part of his narrative by walking out the road toward Raritan and locating the exact spot, near an old tree in front of the Cornell place The tree has been a landmark.

When Johnson got his famous dictionary started he calculated that with six assistants he could complete the task in three years. It took him nine years instead. He received the small recompense of $7,500 and had to pay his assistants out of that Webster worked twenty-four years before his dictionary made its bow to the world. Webster was very punctilious in his definitions and so painstaking that it was a wonder he completed the work when he did.

the Strange Name Insane to Richmond

of why should a railroad train be called 'dippy.' He wondered if the cars were accustomed to swing sidewlse, or if the train was the victim of many wrecks. He thought, probably there were a great number of hills along the G. R. & I. and because of the constant inclines and grades the passenger acquired the sensations of a trip on the switch back. But here came the inspector. "Well have you figured it out, yet, stranger?" Upon the latter's response in the negative and as the train was being taken to a siding to await its afternoon trip, the inspector proffered the explanation. "You see, we call her the dippy, because there are so many bugs crazy ones brought down on her. You know we have an insane asylum here? Well we have and that train brings more patients than all others that come here. Don't know why it does, but them little towns up the edge of the state send more crazies down than any others. Last week this one train brought in nine." And satisfied with his explanation he went about his work. Brooks said that he has preached for the last T years and that he spent five years in Egypt as a missionary. During the celebration of the Washington Camp Ground Association, at Boundbrook, on July 4 last, he walked up the mountain side unassisted. He says he is older than Noah Radyl. who died in Middlesex county. N. J., a few years ago at the supposed age of 120 years. Zion church was crowded with negroes, eager to hear the sermon preached by Brooks.

HUNDREDS OF HOUSES DESTROYED BY EIRE Mohammedan Section of Constantinople Goes. Constantinople, Aug. 24. During a fire Sunday afternoon in the Stamboul quarter a strong wind carried the flames at great speed, and for six hours they swept over the section, destroying 1,500 bouses and shops. The fire was burning all of last night. Stamboul is the Mohammedan part of the city. Within its walls are the seraglio, the principal mosques, the mausoleums of the Sultans, the baths the bazars, the public government offices and the existing remains of ancient Constantinople. BORED AND PLUGGED. The Truthful Story of a Ship Struck by Lightning. "In Duluth down on the docks some days ago some fresh water Ancient Mariners were talking of adventures on the raging main," began an old steamship man. " 'Captain n.,' said one. 'it seems to me I've heard somewhere that your vessel was once struck by lightning while sailing, sailing over the bounding main?' " 'Yep, twice.' said Captain H. 'Happened off Point Aux Barques bout fifteen years ago. We were Joggin' 'long when n thunderstorm overtook us, and the very first flash of lightnin' struck the deck amidships and bored a bole as big as my right leg right down through the bottom of the vessel. " 'And she foundered, of course?" " 'No, sir. The water began rusbln' in, and she would have foundered, but there came a second flash, and a bolt struck my foreto' gallant mast. It was cut Off near the top, turned bottom end up. and as it came down It entered the hole and plugged it up as tight as a drum. When we got down to drydock we simply sawed off either end and left the plug in the planks.' " Washington Herald. Fatalities.

But I had my own way, of course, and Anally the crowd got started, and you know they made me put on a lot of wraps and things that simply suffocated me. And about halfway up 1 slipped and fell over a cliff and broke my neck! Indeed, yes. And when they had lifted and pulled me back on the trail I absolutely died from pain. But before long I was able to go on to the top. but by the time we were almost there I collapsed and sat down, for I could never breathe again. But they made me pull myself together and in time we got to the summit, and there It was so cold I froze to death! Oo-ooh! And I was glad. I -can tell you. when we came down at last, and as soon as they got me home I went to bed, dead from exhaustion." Independent

What looked like a serious runaway resulted in merely bruising and scaring Mrs. Harvey and two women friends while out driving in Carlos City last week. The party had just started to take a trip, when the horse, which is a spirited animal, became frightened. It ran quite a distance when the buggy upset, leaving the occupants laying in the soft green grass in a fence corner. Neither of the women were injured. THE NECK RUFF. It Reached Its Full Glory In the Sixteenth Century. One of the most peculiar and interesting evolutions in historic fashion is the growth and development of the ruff in England. This ruff began Its career as a humble little something like a tuck running along the top of the chemisette from shoulder to shoulder. You can see It grow in the portraits of royal personages slowly, but surely, like a great linen flower opening its plaited petals from generation to generation. During the reign of Henry VII. it was scarcely more than a budding excrescence, but with Henry VIII. it had outgrown its tuck stage to the extent of reaching up to the ears and was beginning to sport a mild flare. Those were the days of such strict sumptuary laws that in order to weaf black gemet you must be royal, to wear sable you must outrank your viscount neighbor, to wear marten or velvet trimmings you must I able to show an income of over 200 marks a year. The reign of Edward VI. and Queen Mary merely fostered the ruff without encouraging It to any greater development But Queen Elizabeth, seeing In it possibilities for offsetting her red hair and clear skin, fanned it Into vigorous life. In the sixteenth century the ruff burst Into full bloom. Men and women, even tiny princesses, were overshadowed by the stiff rays of the ruff on all great occasions. Even over France.

Graydou was deeply distressed over the pain and humiliation he had subjected her to through Droom's unfortunate efforts. The fact that she could uot or would not see him for two days hurt him more than he could express, eveu to himself. The day before he left for New York, however, she saw him in their parlor. She was pale and quiot Neither mentioned the visit to the prison. There was nothing to say. "You will tie in New York next week?" he asked as he arose to leave. Ills spirit was sore. She again had told him that he must not hope. With a hysterical attempt to lead him on to other topics she repented her conversations with Teresa Valesquez. urging him, with a hopeless attempt at bravado, to seek out the Spanish girl and marry her. He laughed lifelessly at the Jest "We will leave Chicago on Monday. Father will have his business affairs arranged by that time. 1 would uot let him resign the presidency. It would seem as if I were taking it away with hlra. We expect to be In Europe for six or eight months; then I am coming back to New York, where I was born. Graydon, to work." He went away with the feeling in his heart that he was not to see her again. A single atom of determination lingered in his soul, however, and he tried to build upon it for the future. Rlgby's wedding invitation had come to him that morning, almost as a mockery. He tore It to pieces, with a scowl of recollection. Droom's effects were on the way to New York. lie hung back, humbly waiting for Graydon to suggest that they should travel east on the same train. His grim, friendless old heart gave a bound of pure joy, the first he had known, when the young man made the suggestion that night. Together they traveled eastward and homeward, leaving behind them tho gray man in stripes. Jane's six months in Europe grew Into a year, and longer. It was a long but a profitable year for Graydon Bansemer. He had been enriched not only in wealth, but in the hope of ultimate happiness. Not that Jane encouraged him. Far from it. She was more obdurate than ever with an ocean between them. But his atom of determination had grown to a purpose. His face was thinner, and his eyes were of a deeper, more wistful gray. They were full of longing for the girl across the sea and of pity and yearning for the man back there in the west. He had toiled hard and well. He bad won. The shadow of '99 was still over him, but the year and a new ambition had lessened its blackness. Friends were legion in the great metropolis. He won hi3 way into the hearts and confidence of new associates and renewed fellowship with the old. Invitations came thickly upon him. but be resolutely turned his back upon most of them. He was not socially hungry In these days. Once a week he wrote to his father, but there never was a reply. He did not expect one, for James Bansemer, In asking him to write, had vowed that his son should never hear from him again uutll he could speak as a free man and a chastened one. True to his promise. Graydon Instituted no movement to secure a pardon. He did, by a strong personal appeal, persuade Denis Ilarbert to drop further prosecution. There were enough indictments against his father to have kept him behind the bars for life. Ellas Droom had rooms In Eighth avenue, not a great distance from Herald square. He was quite proud of his new quarters. They had many of the unpleasant features of the old ones In Wells street, but they were less garish in their affront to an aesthetic eye. The incongruous pictures were there, and the oddly assorted books, but the new geraniums had a chance for life in the broader windows; the cook stove was In the rear, and there was a venerable Chinaman in charge of it; the bedroom was kept so neat and clean that Droom quite feared to upset It with his person. But most strange of all, was the change in Droom himself. "I've retired from active work," he Informed Graydon one day when that young man stared In astonishment at him. "What'a the use. my boy. In Ellas Droom dressing like a dog of a workingman when he Is a gentleman of leisure and affluence? It surprises you to see me in an evening suit eh? Well, by Jove, my boy, I've got a dinner jacket a rrince Albert and a silk hat There are four new suits of clothes hanging np In that closet" he said, adding, with a sarcastic laugh: "That ought to make a perfect gentleman of me, oughtn't iti What are yon laughing at?"

There was not a day or night iu which bis mind was wholly five from thoughts of James Banremor. He counted the weeks and days until the man would Its free, aud liLs eyes narrowed with these furtive glances Into the future. lie felt iu his heart that James Bansemer would onv. tt him at onco and t'ar.t the reckoning for his single hour of trlampli would be a heavy one to pay. Sometime he would sit for hours with his eyes etrrk:g at the Napoleon above the booL.'ase, something like dread In their depths. Then agalu he would laugh Avith glee, pound the table with his bony har.d. much to the consternation of Chang, and exclaim as if addressing a multitude: "I hope I'll be dead when be gets out of there.

By my soul, he'll know that a handsome face Isn't always the best He laughed at ray face, curse him. His face won her his good looks! Well, well, well, I only hope she's where she can see his face now!" He would work himself Into a frenzy of torment and glee combined, usually collapsing at the end of his harangue. It disgusted him to think that bis health was so good that he might be expected to live beyond the limit of James Ban senior's Imprisonment At the end of eighteen months Jane was coming home. She bnd written to Graydon from London, and the newspapers announced the sailing of the Cables. "I am coming home to end all of thU Idleness." 6he wrote to him.
