Rank, of XIelliotll.nl In New York. New York, June 2.—The Methodist Episcopal ministers of the city are so much opposed to tlie “forward move ment," so called, of tho Rev. C. II. Yat man that there is a possibility of an or ganized effort on their part to rout him from the field. Mr. Yatman came here some timo ago from Boston, and has started what is regarded by many as an independent Methodist church. His meetings are hold in Union Square the ater nml other non-secular places, and have been largely attended One of his ’clerical henchmen is the Rev. A. -T. Palmer, D. D., of St. Paul's church. 150 Fifth avenue, but his prin cipal support is said to come from lay men whom ho has interested in his work. One of tlioso is Colonel Kilian Vun Ronsselne". The movement in opposl tion to the "forward movement” is bused upon the belief that the independent services uro detracting from the attend ance at the regular churches, and iu proof of this the consolidation of the Asbury and Washington Square churchos, so that tlie two together may secure tho strengtli that neittier pos sessed in sufficiency as separate organi zations, is cited. It is ulso stated that other churches nro negotiating for con solidntion, and that nearly every con gregution in Now York, Brooklyn and Jersey City has been undetermined by Mr. Yatman’s nroject. The protost against Mr. Yutinan is being made in a subdued manner at present, but it is whispered about that there will he an emphatic public outcry on .Tune 12, when a symposium of Meth odist ministers is to bo held in New York. The Rev. C. McAnney, of Tar- rytown, formerly pastor of Washington Square church, is to lead off, and he is expected to fire tho first gun ut Air. Yatman. He is one of the most caustic speakers iu the denomination and is avowedly against tho alloged interloper. Others who 'will back him up are the Rev. George W. Miller, of this city, and the Rev. Dr. Baker, of Newark. Two dozen ministers who were spo ken to on the subject, declared their antagonism to the Rev. Mr. Yatman, some asserting that his methods were not according to tho traditions and cus toms of the church and were altogether too informal. They wore not aware of an organized project to drive Mr.'Yat- man out, but the general opinion was that something wus hatching in the Methodist Book concern building that would be heard from soou. Phillips Brook, and the Children. “Nothing seemed to give Dr. Brooks greater pleasure," said Mr. Thomas H. Howard, tho superintendent of St. An drew’s parish, "than to have children near him. He liked to get off in one cor ner among a group of little children and play with and fondle them. "I remember one instnnee,” continued Mr. Howard, with a faint smilo, "when Dr. Brooks disarranged our plans com pletely, and this disarrangement almost resulted in a small riot. He always at tended our Christmas festivals and was always eager to take an active part in tho distribution of the gifts and in the festivities in general. This occasion In particular was tho year before he was conaecrnted, and the exercises were go ing along swimmingly. We had a regu* larly arranged programme, which pro vided for the giving out of the hags of candy at the very lust, "Well, Dr. Brooks was surrounded by m crowd of the smaller children, the babies of the mission, and about the time that tho exercises were about half o\ cr these little ones began to clamor for candy, and the doctor couldn't stand their pleadings. He simply got up und commenced to unload the tree of its sweets, tossing the bags of candy to the little ones. No sooner had he begun to do this than the older children, perhaps a grade higher, raised a great rumpus, and there was nothing for ua to do hut to shut Dr. Brooks off, call a halt and restore order.

A Philadelphia gentleman has a canary that he calls Noah. lie allows Noah an occasional free flight in the garden. One day when timo was up the bird declined to come into the house or be taken, but when approached flew off a space. He would then fly back, still declining to be taken in. At last his performance in duced his owner to go out and follow. At once he hurst into a joyful song and flew away, keeping a few feet uhead and looking back coaxingly. "1 followed, and he led me to a rose bush at the other end of the garden, but I could not see what brought him until, with a series of loud staccato notes, he flew down beside a heap of yellow leaves. Then 1 saw laying there what I took to bo a dead canary, but when I stooped and took it in my hand it feebly stirred, ft had evidently been out all night and was nearly frozen. Noah was delighted and would fly from mo hack to the in valid in his bed of coarse cotton 20 times a minute, trilling his prettiest songs and chirping, as if to say, ‘How are you feeling now, brother?’ ” Hero is this sweet spirit of helpful love of others without desire of gain, such as would honor any human character.—St. Louis rUnh#».n(muvrot Ar«Yo« Uft Kyd or lllght Eyed? There are hut few ambidexters, either in the matter ot hands, feet or eyee. It 'may sound rather queer, but it is a fact nevertheless, that 95 out of every 100 human beings are right handed, left legged and left eyed. Felix Hement, who knows more about eyes in a minnto than half of the opti cians and oculists of the country havo been able to learn in a lifetime, re marked that it is an established fact that we all use ono eye more than we do the other, which establishes as clear a case of "left and right eyedness” as though the same terms were used to denote a preference in the use of hands and feet. If you want to decide as to whether your friends or relatives are right or left eyed, give them a small telescope or spy glass to look through or have them take "aim” with a gun. We all take great interest in ascertaining the color, size, shapn and visual powers of our children’s eyes, hut how many of us stop to con sider whether they are "right” or “left eyed?”—St. Louis Republic. What Nature Doea For Her Trees. The wild forest trees hear a great abunduuce of foliage, and this shows that nature provides for her own in a most bountiful manner. The inferiority of the foliage of the mountain trees and those growing near lakes and rivers is due to the rich substances contained in decayed leaves and water forming a chemical action with the solar rays. Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbonic acid and the gaseous substances in na ture are sufficient to complete the annual growth of forest trees of all classes. Along the broad reaches of the north ern and southern rivers this fact is clear ly seen and well defined. The rich nav igable lowland rivers, such as the Thames in England and the Loire in France, dis play the richest and most luxuriant trees.—Boston Transcript. , Seen Iu a Dream. In the summer of 1855 Mrs. John Tel- yea, then living in Wisconsin, dreamed that her niece Mary, who was attending school at Waukesha, 16 miles distant, had met with a serious accident, the ex act naturo of which she could not recall when awake, but it so alarmed her that she told her husband the next morning that he must go immediately to Wau kesha, as something terrible had hap pened to Mary.
