CHURCH AND LODGE KICK OBJECTIONS MADE ' BECAUSE EVENTS OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS ADVERTISED ON SAME BILL WITH -CAKE WALK." Local colored society is being dis turbed b7. a row-that is. much more intense than the mild summer breeze that bestirs . the . leaves only rarely these days. It' is all because of a contein plated celebration Monday, July 5, of Eureka Lodse K. of P. But some members of the lodge assert the affair is without official sanction, hence the dispute. Handbills have been distributed advertising the "big doings" scheduled for the coliseum, which are to consist of cake walks and other terpsicorean feats. And connected with this event is the program for Sunday exercises by the lodge, which is scheduled for the Bethel A. M. E. church. But the Rev.. Noah Williams, castor of the - Bethel church brands the advertisement of dances and ser-1 vices at the church on the same bill a disgrace and declares he will interfere with the Sunday features by withholding the use of the church. Branded as Fake. Among other things, in a communication to the press today, the Rev. Mr. Williams says he understands the en tertainment planned for Monday night is a "fake." But the members of the committee say it is not and that they intend to produce what they advertise. Among the other attractions is offered a buck and wing dance. My, but that caused consternation among the church folk. But when they read about the shirtwaist ball and the cake walk there was Instant decision that the church should not be a party to such an entertainment. The fact Jubi lee singers are to appear did not remedy the matter in the least and it is claimed by the church dignitaries their decision is irrevocable. Prizes are offered for the cakewalkers and lady dancers. It is like ly to be pretty warm that night, but that would only help stiff joints to limber up and feet that are tired to become nimble. What the end of the dispute will be remains to be seen A FROG IN THE POT." taxing Days ef ths Early Tea Tax In New England. Tea was not brought over by the first settlers. When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth tea was selling in England at from $10 to $30 per pound. It was a luxury that had been known to Englishmen only a few years. Early settlers got along without India or China tea for a long time. They used roots, herbs and leaves found in the fields and woods as a substitute for tea. Sassafras tea was s common drink. Tea was advertised for sale In Boston in 1762 for the first time, according to historians. In 1768 patriots began to take the pledge not to drink tea because of the tax that the English government placed on it. It became fashionable for patriotic ladles not to serve India tea. but as substitutes therefor "Labrador tea" and "Liberty tea." Captain Psge of Dsnvers forbade his spouse to taste tea beneath his roof as long as the tax remained upon it, but the strong minded and ingenious lady ascended to the fiat roof of the bouse, invited her friends to follow, and there she served tea to them. Some other ladles ef the town fared less fortunately. They used to borrow for their tea parties the big teapot of the once famous Bell tavern. One day, after drinking the forbidden beverage, the master of the bouse unexpectedly walked In. jumped to the fire, grabbed the teapot and turned It over, and out rolled a big frog. The jovial patriots at the Bell tavern suspecting the use of the pot had placed the frog In It. Some of the dames never drank tea afterward, for It made . them sick. . - - Isaac Wilson of Peabody persisted In selling tea. so the Sons of Liberty seized hiss and compelled him to walk about town penitently repeating: I. Isaac Wilson, a Tory be; L Isaac Wuaon. I Mil tea. The celebrated Boston tea party was followed by tea parties la other New England towns. In Salem, soon after the Boston party. David Mason was suspected of having bad bis negro servant smuggle two chests of tea Into7 1 his home. Patriots entered and searched bis house. They found the tea. They pave It to boys, who paraded with it to Salem common and there burned It Even after the Revolution trade In tea was not wholly unrestricted. It appears that lh some New England places dealers In tea were required to take out a license. Boston Glebe. SCRUBBING SCHOOLS.

NICELY TRi:
The Way Keene Get Ssjuare WMi Jw ....... ,,. s. Wsilae1 OWeiala. . .. James R. Keene was nicely trUnased once. He told the story hlumtf : I used to Uv out In the cotratry and rode to and from New York every day on a little jerkwater road. . One day. wbea I forgot my ticket, the coiv ductor. whoas I knew well enough to call; by his first name, refused to accept my money when I tried to pay my fare. . He dropped me off the train Into six inches of the thickest., sticklest mud In the world. By.tbelme I got to a road where I could hall a wagon I was mud to my knees. "I was roaring, raving, frantic mnd. When I got to New York my first call was on the officials of the road. 1 wanted that conductor fired. . I had to interview every cussed little petty official of the road before I got to the president. Every one of them Insulted me In the most judicial way. When I got to the president I was a howling, ripping maniac. He listened to me for a moment and told his secretary to throw that ruffian downstairs.' "And the secretary would have done , it. too. If I hadn't beat blm to the door. As soon as I could get to my broker I told him to buy the controlling Interest in that road. It took me a week to get It, and I had to climb high for some of the stock. Then I threw out every official that had scorned me. I was just beginning to get back Into my usual placid state of mind when one day I saw a familiar face at the track. It was the conductor who had thrown me off. lie waved to me blandly. 'Just bought a little place out this way,' he said. 'You know, that stock you bonght belonged to us. The X., M and Z. was a close corooration. and we srot vou mad on purpose. We stung you good." Setting 8purgon Right. Mr. Spurgeon, the great English preacher, used to tell this story upon himself with glee: On one occasion he found himself in a railway carriage with a rather sour looking spinster. with whom be entered Into conversa tion. She did not appear to recognize him, and as the train passed Kelvedon he pointed out the-village, remarking, "A very great man was born thereMr. Spurgeon, the preacher." The spinster looked hard at him for some moments and then replied with awful solemnity, "If St Paul had been pass log his birthplace he would have said. A very great sinner was born there,' Mr.. Spurgeon r . His Mistake. A congressman was asked by a newspaper man to affirm or deny a story of current Interest relating to a bit of legislation. "Did yon ever bear the advice of the old politician r replied the congressThe newspaper man admitted he had not. "Well, this particular individual was running for office. Hls opponents charged him with being a grafter. It made him mad. but be did not deny it. Next somebody said he was a liar. That made him madder, but he did not deny It. Then some virtuous citizen said be was a profane man. He great ly feared this charge would cost him the church vote, but he did not deny it. "When they finally said he bad made a deal with the corporations In order to be elected he got so blamed mad he could not hold In any longer, and he denied that and, by George, they proved it on him! Deny nothing." The Newspaper. Henry Ward Beecher once said: "In the United States every worthy citizen reads a newspaper and owns it. A newspaper Is a window through which men look out on all that is going on In the world. -. Without a newspaper a man is shut up In a small room snd knows little or nothing of whst Is happening outside of himself. A good newspaper win keep a man In sympathy with the werld's current history. It Is an ever unfolding encyclopedia, an unbound book, forever Issuing and never finished." Making a Cubble. A gentleman went Into a pipemaker's shop at Edinburgh with the Intention of seeing the method of making pipes. When he got In be found only a boy In the shop, so without more ado he thus sddressed him: " "WeeL my callant, m gle ye six pence an' ye'll show us how ye mak' yer pipes . j "I canna mak a peep, sir," replied the lad; "I can only mak a cubble." neyT" .;. - ' - A ,! "It's a short peep," replied the boy, "sic ss men an' women smoke oot on." "Why, 111 gle ye sixpence an' yell show us how ye mak that." "Gle's yer sixpence furst," was the reply. . The gentleman gave the boy sixpence, when he took a long pipe and broke a piece off it, saying: "There, now, sir; that la the way I mak cubbies." '. Bluchers Oversight. The Emperor Napoleon received General Blucher at the castle of Flnkensteln. while be was preparing for the siege of Danzig. Napoleon drew Blucher to a window In an upper story and paid him compliments on his military gifts, snd Blucher. going sway delighted, described the interview to his aid-de-camp. "What a chance yon missed!" exclaimed the latter. "Ton might have changed the whole course of history." "How?" " "Why, yon might have thrown him out of the window r "Confound ltr replied Blucher. "So I might if only I had thought of It!" SUIT IS DISMISSED. In the Wayne circuit court today the ease of Bragg vsvKinsey et si, dismissed and the costs paid.
