FARO BUILT THE CHURCH.
BUhop Fat V» • Good Fickt, *■« tk«
Sparta Cklpped la
Bishop Worthington of Omaha is now
a strict churchman. His sermons are
severe in doctrine and hold out little
hope to sinners unless they repent
However, the bishop knows human na
ture. He learned it in the beet school
for an education of that kind—the far
west. s
Years ago, when Mr. Worthington
was a recent graduate from the theolog
ical seminary, he began his gospel work
in Butte, Mon. The town was then a
mining camp pure and simple. It had
saloons, dance halls and gamMing
rooms, but neither church nor school.
Its inhabitants were rou|h, tough and
ready—manliness was their god; and it
was this manliness which made the
west what it is.
At college Worthington was a boxer
and an oarsman. In Butte these accom
plishments served him well, for they
gave him a strong arm and a qufek eye.
His gospel services were held in a feint.
There was no money to build a church.
One day as he was walking along the
principal street the bully of the town
approached him.
“Do you want to fight?” asked the
desperado.
“No,” replied the clergyman.
“Then take that!”
But “that” never came. WttWfag
ton warded off the blow, and with his
good right fist sent the bully to gram in
scientific fashion.
That night the affair was talked Over
in Cy Henry’s gambling house.
“I like that chap Worthington/’ said
Bill Johnson. “He strikes a good blow.
Let’s all play for him tonight.”
The proposition was agreed to, and
the next morning |l,Boo won at faro
was presented to the minister. ' That
money built the first church in Butte.

, ORIGIN OF KALAMAZOO.
Pretty Leuend That la Reapamwlhle
For the Town’s Name.
The name of Kalamazoo, like Oshkosh
and one or two others, has come to be
to foreigners a synonym of American
absurdity. It is often chosen, for some
occult reason, to illustrate that form of
vernacular English known as “United
States.”
But all thought of ridicule vanishes
when its romantic origin is considered,
for it is the echo still lingering about
the memory of two dusky lovers, who,
in that long gone time when Michigan
was the home mainly of Indian tribes,
lived and loved on the banks of the riv
er which now bears their names.
Kahla, the young warrior, was
straight of limb and eagle eyed, while
to Mahzoo had been given by the Great
Spirit the many graces and virtues for
which Indian maidens have become
noted in song and legend. Life to these
two possessed all the charm which true
affection has ever granted to lovers, and
the days, as they came and went,
brought only abounding joy.
Each summer evening, as the twilight
deepened and the time drew near for
her lover’s return from the chase, the
maiden watched from her bower in the
swaying branches of a giant elm over
hanging the river’s edge for the first
sign of his coming. As the bow of his
canoe shot round the curve away in the
distance her clear musical voice called
to him, “Kahla, Kahla!” and from the
young warrior came in loving tones the
response, “Mahzoo!”—Chicago Times-
Herald.
Twain's Material For Stories.
In Beilin, when one pays his fare to
the conductor of a street car, he receives
a ticket, which is soon afterward col
lected by an inspector, who boards the
car at a fixed point. One day, just as a
joke, Mark Twain paid his fare 15
times on one trip, each time throwing
the ticket out of the window or under
his seat as soon as he had deposited the
regular fare with the conductor. A few
minutes later the inspector would get
on the car and demand tickets all
around. Os course Twain had none to
show and had to buy another, apparent
ly with reluctance. The performance
amused the American, dumfounded the
conductor, who had never met so reck
less a passenger, and tickled the native
passengers, who thought the foreigner
well punished for his negligence. By
this modest investment material was
obtained for a Capital story, which net
ted Mark Twain just |SOO. —Ladies’
Home Journal.
Homesick.
A recent article on homesickness re
calls the reply made by a young Swed
ish maid to her mistress. It expresses
clearly, though in imperfect English,
what every sufferer from homesickness
feels.
“You ought to be contehted and not
fret for your old home, Ina,” said the
lady as she looked at the dim eyes of
the girl. “ You are earning good wages,
your work is light, every one is kind to
you and you have plenty of friends
here.”
“Yas’m,” said the girl, “but it is
not the place where I do be that makes
me vera homesick, it is the place where
I don’t be. ” —Youth’s Companion.
The Real Reason.
Smithers—Why don’t you run for
school director, Brown?
Brown—Well, you see, sir, there is
the farm to look after, and the work on
the roads, the timber to cut, the strong
party feeling, my views on the educa
tional question, my tax theory, my ideas
of the money problem, and then, be
sides—my wife wants to run.—Harper’s
Bazar. '

ACTING AFRAID OF DOGS.
n Xa the Barest Way In the World to
Provoke an Attack.
It is curious, to me wonderful, how
well dogs understand people. They
seem at a glance or very soon thereafter
to decide in their minds whether or not
it would be safe to assail one who en
ters their owner’s premises, says Lip
pincott’s Magazine. My own opinion is
that-every one of them, big or little, of
high or low degree, would like to bite
every stranger that be sew. Their love
for their master makes them jealous dr
makes them pretend to be jeakx* of
everybody who approaches them, and
tftey debate momentarily whether or not
a comer is afraid of them. Ifbe fir not,
they either extend a friendly salute,
which always is deceitful, or assume to
be indifferent If Adis, they give him
a bitA ■ftfotok or lem YlMp, than slink
away trimpoustoto toifeqwenees.
Fovyeart and years I have followed
th® role, when visiting a person resid
ing out oftown, unless I know positive
ly that he keeps no dog of any size, to
halt at the'gate, raise a halloo and
await not only my host’s invita
tion, but his approach and his ao
companßmtit into his house. I could
not tell the number of times wherein I
have been barked at furiously from the
inside by dogs whose owners declared
that in all their lives they had never
done such a thing before to a man of
genteel appearance.
The counsels and admonitions bestow
ed upon me might have excited some
gratitude if they had not been wholly
useless. I have been asked so many
times that it makes me almost sick to
have the question repeated, “Why don’t
you just go along without noticing
such things, not being or at least pre
tending not to be afraid? Not one dog
in 10,000 will try to bite a gentleman
unless he is provoked or sees that he is
being avoided. ” •
A Cheap Decoration.
A prominent German actor, relates
Albert L. -Vandam in The Illustrated
London News, had fulfilled half of his
“starring” engagement in the capital
of a grand duchy, and as yet no recog
nition of his talents had been forthcom
ing in the shape of a decoration. Dis
gusted, the player announced his inten
tion of departing the following morning.
Early on that day the theater intend
ant acquainted his grand ducal master
with what had happened. The conver
sation took place in the garden of the
schloss, situated on the road to the sta
tion, and suddenly an open carriage
with the actor in it hove in sight.
“Be quick I”'said the prince. “Get,
me that box on my writing table. If go
he must, we’ll at any rate try to satisfy
him in his ambition.” The intendant
ran, and returned just as the vehicle
passed the gates. “One moment, Hen
B ,” shouted the prince. “Here is
something to remember me by. ”
The actor bowed low, and went his
way. In another moment, however, his
conveyance reappeared at the gates.
“There are two crosses, your highness, ”
he exclaimed.
“Never mind,” replied the prince.
"Give the other to the coachman. ”
Tlt-tat-to.
In the Century Dictionary the deriva
tion is given from tit, tat, to, “thres
meaningless words” used in counting.
However, the East Friesio name (ses
Koolman’s "E. Fr. Diet”) is tik-tak
tuk, evidently a more original form. In
this name the word tik has the same
sense as E, tick, a mark, in allusion to
the mark made by the player on the
slate, while tak, tuk, are variants of
the same theme, made on the principle
of altering the vowel, as in Germanic
verbs of the third strong conjugation,
such as sing, sang, sung.
Hence the name is by do meant
"meaningless, ’’ but has an obvious ref
erence to the ticks, or marks, made by
the players, and the word is threefold
instead of reduplicated, because the ob
ject of the game is to make three tickl
in a row.—Notes and Queries.
Merely From Observation.
"Is Miss Blinkins at home?” asked
Mr. Saunders of the Irish girl who an
swered his ring at the door.
" Yes, I b’lave she is, sir. ’’
"Is she engaged?”
"An is it engaged you say? Falx, an
I can’t tell you, sir, but she kissed Mr.

dreaming of such a thing.
Her—l’ll wager you were not. You

was in sight.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

STERN DISCIPLINE.
It to Nmm*m7 I* War and Üba Soldier
Mart Lear* Sa flataatt.
One of Detroit’s retired officers, who
fought in two wars and helped for years
to restrain the savage outbreaks of our
Indiana, thus delivered himself to the
Writer:
"The very hardest lesson a young
American has to learn when he enters
the army is that of obedience. For the
*nt time, Mb individual authority is de
throned. He is as fractious as a thor
oughbred oolt that long rebels against
the whip and spur. It is hard for Mm
to understand that his freedom of action
must be subordinated to Military neces
sity. He chafes, if he does not openly
rebel, but when once whipped into line
he makes the best soldier on earth.
"My first drillmaster had been my
friend and the friend of my family from
my boyhood up. Wo had bunted and
fished and courted together and ex
changed secrets with a freedom that
does not obtain among brothers. One
day, early in my experience as a soldier,
and while everything was being hurried
with a view to getting us into Mexico,
W' had been drilling till I felt ready to
drop. The repeated orders struck pain
to my earn and I would have conscien
tiously sworn that my musket weighed
a ton. At length, when within easy ear
shot of him, I shouted, ’For heaven’s
sake, Bob, stop this tomfoolery and let’s
go over to the tavern.’
"He never looked at me but roared,
„ ’Corporal, take that man and drill him
’ like the devil. ’
"The corporal did, and I thought I’d
die of exhaustion. I fully meant to
challenge the drillmaster and whip him
if he declined, but he succeeded in mak
ing me understand the imperative neces
sity of unquestioning obedienoe in the
soldier. It’s tough with the raw re
cruit, but the quicker he learns his part
the better it is for all concerned.’’—De

WAYS OF THE BLUE CRAB.
* -<■
Some of It* PeouUarltlo* »» Ofwerved »t
Now York's Aquartam.
While the blue crab is not commonly
thought of as a swimmer and does in
fact spend the greater part of its time
on the bottom, yet it can very easily
sustain itself in the water and swim at
a very fair rate of speed. It swims end
wise, and when swimming it carries
one big claw thrown forward and bent
back at the middle joint, making a
point projecting at that end of the
body, while the other big claw trails
straight out astern. If it changes direc
tion, it crooks the claw it had been car
rying straight and lets the other go
free. If it sustains itself in the water
without progressing, it carries its big
daws in front of itself as it would nat
uridly do under ordinary circumstances
on the bottom, but it has to keep its
little claws in motion to sustain itself,
and in swimming the little claws are
kept actively at work. Besides making
a good degree of progress through the
water in swimming the blue crab can
change its course or swim to a higher
or lower level with facility. When
frightened, the blue crab movea off ride
ways, but when moving about at home
and undisturbed it may move straight
forward. Its body may be inclined at
any angle to the line of .progress, but
its motion still be forward, the big
claws carried crooked around in front.
It may be seen moving thus in one of
the larger tanks at the aquarium, in
which there are blue crabs, lobsters and
other things. The temperature of the
watte now just suits the crustaceans,
and they are very lively. Blue crabs
may be seen swimming here, and also
waUdng about, stepping down from
stones that are as high as they them
selves are wide with perfect dignity, if
not grace of manner, and walking or
carrying their claws before them.—-

The First Teeeap*.
Even after tea was introduced into
Europe and had come into general use
teacups were scarce. At the same time
coffee was introduced; but, apart
Constantinople, the first coffee cups In
Europe date back only as far as 1645 in
Venice, 1659 in Paris, 1652 in London
and 1694 in Leipsic. From the first,
however, the conventional oriental cof
fee cup, without stem or handle, was
little used, and in Germany not at all
The Chinese teacup was used for tea,
coffee and chocolate aswelL Specimens
of porcelain were undoubtedly intro
duced into Europe in the middle ages,
yet not till the sixteenth century were
cups imported from China in any great
quantities, and even then it was as arti
cles of vertu. Most of those found their
way back into China again, as collect
ing porcelain is a lasting fad there, and
high prices are paid for good specimens.
The collection of Chinese porcelain, if
only the genuine specimens are desired,
requires immense study and knowledge,
as the Chinese are skillful imitators
and pat numertras falsifications on the
market.
