"General Order No. I."
John F waa a soldier, lie waa
member of the Tent h Maine regiment and
orderly sergeant of his company. He waa
very Inch a soldier, brave ami true, albeit
little prone to stick to the letter rather
than to the spirit of the law. The articles
; of war were his study. In short, be waa
excessively military military all through
At the close of the late war John came
home and was shortly afterward installed
Into the responsible position of sexton of
our church, and he straightened things ont
wonderfully. On the very first Sabbath
after his taking charge we found posted
upon the wall of the church vestibule an
imposing document headed, "General Or
der Mo. 1."
There had been trouble in certain quar
ters resulting from the difficulty which
Indies who came to church late found in
gaining their seats when gentlemen had
got in ahead of them. John determined to
remedy this, so he issued "General Order
No. I," which reiul as follows:
Rnlcs la be observed when a lady wishes to
snter a pew In which gentlemen are already
sealed: Let the lady advance one pace beyond
the pew halt about face and salute. The
pew will be vacated by the gentlemen by a
Hank movement. The squad should rise simul.
taneously when the lady presents herself, and
face outward then deploy into the aisle, the
head man facing the lady, the others passim;
to his rear, wheu, if necessary, the line will be
perfected up and down the aisle by a right or
left countermarch, as the case may require, the
right In frout.
The lady, when the way is clear, wilt salute
again, and advance to her position fn the pew.
after which the gentlemen will break from the
rear, obliquely, and resume their places.
Parties performing this evolution have pos

none others will interfere.

What Shall We Hake Our Sundays
What is to be the fate of our Sunday no
one can tell. Its fate ought to be fair and
even noble when one thinks about the
growth of common sense. The idea of a
day of rest for man and beast ought to ask
no aid from revelation, so easily should it
repose upon the wants of our race. And if
to this conception of rest be added the idea
of a certain high and moral education, the
day should still find ample support in the
processes of reason. A majority of Ameri
cans perhaps favor the day because of tfaei
religious beliefs and feelings, butalmost the
entire population ought to confess the value
of a season by any former period.
- The multiplying millions, the awakened
intellects which cau grow iu vice as easily
as in virtue, the needless work and pain of
a people made half wild by liberty, the
value or all true education and study.
whether it comes from the arts or the
fields of the sanctuary, join in asking the
thinkers powerful in the church to dis
cover what kind of Sunday will most truly
bless man, not only as a religious being.
but also as a being capable of greatness
and happiness upon earth. Professor David

American Levity.
Singularly enough it appears that Poe,
the only absolutely distinct genius our
country has yet produced, was incapable
of humor and that even his levity was
artificial. Hawthorne, next to Poe in
originality and far above him in style,
was but meagerly equipped with smile
provoking material. Bryant, our great
est poet, maintained a lofty seriousness
throughout his work.
It may be sacrilege to say so, but the
truth is Lowell was the founder of our
levity. He never could be quite a relia
bly serious thinker, bnt could at any mo
ment break off into fnnmaking. Humor
is good in a fresh and natural Btate, but
so is a peach. Cut and dry either, and
you have a poor article for a regular diet.
We Americans have fed upon laughable
things until our faces show the wrinkles
of a grin even when in solemnest repose.
We are never sure of one another, but
must wait awhile after each communi
cation to find out whether or not it is a
joke. The effect of highest sincerity
cannot be reached in the midst of all this
hurly burly of chaffing voices. How can
one be serious while everybody else is
grimacing? Chantauquan.
There Was Just One Man.
There is a gallant congressman who
once had the reputation of sowing wild
oats broadcast. When he was first run
ning for congress, many breezy stories
were told about him. At last he gave it
ont in the heat of liis campaign that he
would speak shortly in defense of his
morals. It was a Populist district, and
he had a big audience. The speech every
one liked, but until the last sentence not
a word was spoken about the advertised
subject At the last the candidate stuck
his band under his desk and pulled ont
several boxes of imported cigars.
"Gentlemen," be cried, "I am accused
of having certain bad habits. Particular
instances have been alleged in fact. I
wish to make some one in this assem
blage a present of a box of good cigars.
If there is any one here who has never
done what I have done, will he please
step np and take it?" No one moved.
For a long time the big crowd kept si
lent. But an old Baptist minister in a
far back seat after awhile arose and
said in a high, squeaky voice, "Colonel, I
don't smoke." San Francisco Argonaut

Fuel in Smoke,
A great ileal of value "goes up in smoke,''
but few people realize that smoke has ant-
value. Some Scotchmen, however, have
discovered that it is ho valuable that they
pay several or the scotch iron works a reg
ular rental for the privilege of collecting
and carrying away the smoke and gases
from their blast furnaces. I he smoke and
gases are passed through several miles of
wrought Iron tubing, diminishing in size
from six feet down to eighteen inches, and.
as the gases cool, there is deposited a con
siderable yield of oil.
At one of the smallest of these institu
tions a Glasgow plant there are pumped
and collected about 00,000,000 cubic feet of
furnace gas per day, and on an average
some 25,000 gallons of furnace oil are re
covered weekly, using the residual gases,
consisting chiefly of carbonic monoxide, as
fuel tor distilling and ot her purposes, while
considerable yield of sulphate of am
monia is obtained.! C'hicugo Press.
The Metal of the Future.
"Here is the metal of the future," said a
gentleman, holding out what was apparent

"aluminium is no new discovery, but it is
only lately that the cost of production has
brought it within the possilulities of ordi

Dishes. New York Tribune.
Clement and Henry Walford were
twin brothers. How like and yet how
unlike! In appearance there was every
thing to lead one to Bee that they could
both lay claim to tho same birthday
their fitces were identical, their figures
ihesaine. Fortune, however, had placed,
them in totally distinct channels. Their
mot her iu her day (for she had been dead
these twenty years) was an actress of
tare ability, and people had crowded tho
theaters night after night to follow her
Impressive acting,
Both her sons had inherited hor till
mts in no small measure, and two years
previous to her death they had launched
out in their first struggle to win fresh
laurels for the name around which all
that was gifted had gathered. Talents,
alas! may live and shine, yet they may
live and scarcely flicker. Today these
two men were brothers only in name,
The gifts of the one had been recognized
by a tickle, public, the ubilities of the
other never even had a thought
Clement Walford! His name waa on
everybody's lips. The critics gave him
columns in the papers, theatrical man
agers almost knelt at his feet and paid
eagerly the money he demanded to se
cure his services; society held open its
doors, and the great actor entered at his
ease. Aim Henry? A straggler notu-
ing more; a disappointed straggler.
Clever, but unknown; gifted, but un
heard of. His brothers success may
have cut him, but it never discouraged
him. He labored on, still hopeful.
While the popular man was rich in
London, the other was hovering on the
very edges of poverty. There were
times when he had been forced to write
to his brother a letter asking for help,
but no reply ever came. Tho poor man's
wife had even knocked at the great
actor's door, but the response from a
servant's litis was that "Mr. Walford
was engaged."
And so the brothers lived. The one
utterly oblivious to the ties of relation
Bhip, the other hoping for recognition
and reconciliation at last. Clement v al
ford's triumph was at hand. Hitherto
Shakespeare's characters had with him
remained untouched, but paragraphs in
the newspapers had just appeared an
nouncing the fact that it was his inten
tion to appear at an early date as
Hamlet. Everybody, from mauager to
public, was sanguine of a great success;
it was the topic of the clubs, the conver
sation of the critics. Clement Walford
himself felt inwardly comfortable and
satisfied that failure with him could
never be. Success! Success! Success!
He harped on that word at night, saw
the dream of his life realized as he
walked the streets to rehearsal and
heard the enthusiasm of the people, and
watched them clamoring there, even in
the empty theater, as scene by scene was
gone through at rehearsal on the stage.
In all this he was alone with himself.
He thought of Clement Walford and of
him alone. A brother! He had none.
The other had had the same chances-
why did he not take them? If a man.
even Ms own tlesh and blood, snapped
his fingers at his opportunities, was it !
for him to put them in his grasp? I
Tne night drew near. The day before
the performance had arrived and the
last rehearsal had been held. Clement
Walford returned to his rooms. He
stood before the gilded mantelpiece and
looked into the glass. He started back!
He felt giddy. Again he looked into
the' mirror with straining eye. He had
never seen such a deathly pallor on his
face before.' He smiled at his foolish
ness. He attempted to reach a chair,
but found his feet would scarcely carry
him. Make what effort he might his
head was dropping on to his breast; he
felt his hands trembling and looked at
them to see if it was true.
"Engagement strain anxiety ner
vousness overdoing it, he cned; "a
drink of water brandy will set me
right Where's the bellrope? Ah! there
it is," and crawling toward the cor J,
across the room, he just managed to
reach it when he fell to the ground,
When he awoke he lay in bed, tho doc
tor standing by. He lifted his eyes to
ward those of the doctor.
"Why why am I here? How long
have I been here? Is this is this the
first nightr he asked.
"You have been here for a few hours,
that is all," was the doctor's reply. "Lie
quite still keep yonr hands in bed,
now."
"Thank God! Thank God" the man
said. "1 was afraid it was the first night.
What's the matter with me? What's the
matter with me? Why don't you an
swer? Don't look at me like that; an
swer me!"
"You have been doing too much late
ly; you are not strong."
"Not strong!"
"And nothing but perfect rest will
bring you around again," the doctor
said. "You have"
"What? what? Tell me quickly !"
"You have broken a blood vessel!"
The man looked at the doctor for a
moment. Then he rose in his bed. His
voice was scarcely discernible; it was
cold and harsh; it was not the voice of
a man whose tone had fascinated all its
hearers. He looked the medical man
wildly in the face. He asked quietly at
first:
"Do yon know what tomorrow night
is? No; of course you don't. But I do.
It is the first night of 'Hamlet,' and 1
shall be there there, with the house be
fore me, hanging on every word I utter.
Do you think this bed will hold me from
my triumph, do you think you, or the
warning of any man, will prevent me
from welcoming the hour of my success?
Not strong! you don't know me. You
are a stranger to my strength. Don't
speak a word. I shall only ridicule your
warning. 1 tell yon, you don't know
me. Take yonr hand away take It
way. What do you say? Rest rest
here, or I must what! Die? Die! Von
talk madly. No, no, 1 shall live! Live
iu myself for j-ears, live in the memory
Df all forever After tomorrow nightl
After tomorrow night! Give me a drink
f water!"
With trembling bands the man i-
fused t'.ic aid of the doctor, but lifted
tho glass to his liiw and gulped down
the contents. Hour after hour paesed,
the night had gone and with the first
signs of the approaching day the doctor
who had remained a faithful watcher
all through the night drew aside the
window curtains, and the light streamed
in upon the man as he lay in his bed. It
lit up the face of a man whose life was
fast going. He looked almost pitifully
toward the doctor.
"I shall be there tonight, eh?' be asked.
"I mustn't disappoint them, doctor. Let
pie run through my lines with you. Do!
' table by the window, tt was my moth
rr'a gift Bring it to me carefully." ,'
Tho doctor silently did as he waa bid.
He know that he was obeying tho wishes
of one for whom he could not do much
more. When ho turned his head he saw
that the dying man had raised himself
in the bed.
"Turn to the Third Act the First

iu that desk.
The doctor quietly laid the patient's
head upon the pillow. Then he told him
that which brought a wild smile of glad
ness to his pallid face. He laughed at
the news. His brother Harry was be
low waiting even then. When tho doc
tor saw that the man was dying, he
asked the servant! if their master bad
any relations living. They only knew
of one a brother he never saw, a broth
er who a few days before had knocked
at the door and had gone away unseen.

The doctor wont to the door and called,
and when ha saw Henry Walford as-
ending the stairs ho started in surprise.
How like these two men were; how won
derfully like. But one, though poverty
had lined her story npon Ins face, looked
strong and well, the other man was dy

"Harry, old fellow," one said, lifting
hand out of bed with a last strength.
"Clem! Clem!" the other cried, tak

other arm around his neck and lifting
his head up. Then the two men kissed
each other.

The other clasped bis hand.
"No, no; say it! Say '1 forgive youf"
"Clem, my brother; I forgive you,
Clem," Henry Walford said, through
his tears.
"I shan't be able to talk much, so I
must say it quickly. A little water

Henry Walford did so. -
"Yes yes it is myself. Go down to

The stage doorkeeper touched his hat to

tered and the noise waa deafening, and
when the curtain fell he who played the

Am Indignant Burglar.
On a recent morning about S o'clock
a burglar visited Johnston's drug storo,
corner of Tenth and O streets, and in
stead of entering through the regularly
provided doorway after ringing the
night bell, he climbed over the transom
and was about to help himself, when his
noise aroused the clerk, who threw his
boot at the intruder. "Yon've got a
cheek to throw your boot at me," was
the remark of the burglar, who said
"Uood night" and departed. Washing
