PASTOR MHI1 H
BY STAG E PEMiKS
"Dot, A Miner's Daughter, or a Olass
of Wine" Wins Vote Against
Saloon Where Preaching
Foiled.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Jan. 11.
Rev. N. C. Deckot, pastor of a pros
perous church at Galveston, Cass
County, has brought the stage and
tho church together in an effort 'to
reach sinners, and lias succeeded so
well that other Northern Indiana
pastors aro studying his methods
with a vlow to applying them In their
own work.
Tho first step was tho organization
of a dramatic club, and Itev. Becket,
his wlfo and daughter enrolled their
names as members. To conllno tho
membership to church members or
communicants or even to church
goers would, tho pastor thought, fall
In accomplishing his purpose, for It
was tho outsider, tho men and women
tho boys and girls, not Identified with
Christian work that ho was after.
Any person who had a taste for
theatricals was invited to become a
member.
Hoped for Religious Results.
With the formation of the club and
the purchase of stago scenery tho pas
tor further outlined his purpose. He
said tho club would fill a natural
desire for amusement, but at tho

rior's Name from Fame
Roll.
BERLIN, Jan. 8. Men who have
busts of Napoleon Bonaparte in their
studies will have to watch theso art
treasures closely to save them, as
tho German women have decided that
Napoleon's namo shall be obliterated.
Their dislike of tho Consul It not duo
meroly to the fact that ho led thou
sands of sons of weeping mothers
to death, but rather to a booklet just
published in Germany, in which Na
poleon's views on women are quoted.
The booklet Is entitled "Tho Voice of
the Great." Here are some of the re
marks which stirred tho German
women:
"Women are our property. We
are not theirs. They give us children
and not we them. They aro our
possessions as tho tree bearing fruit
Is the possession of tho gardener.
West Spoils Its Women.
' "Wo nations of the west do not
understand how to deal with women.
We spoil them by treating them too
nicely.

BOY HOBO TRAVELS
AROUND THE WORLD
Thirteen Year Old William Bierdorff
Reaches Tacoma After Crossing
Continent on Drake Rods.
TACOMA, Jan. 11. To have work
ed his way around tho world and "ho
boed it" from New York to San Fran
cisco and then to Tacoma is tho re
markable record of William Bior-
droff, a diminutive 13-year-old or
phan whose parents were once people
of comfortable means residing In
Centralla.
Bierdorff applied at the police sta
tion tho other night for lodging. He
was shivering with cold and looked
hungry. Ho told Police Captain Olson
about his parents' death three years
ago and about his wanderings since
that tlmo. Ho went to Australia on
a windjammer and returned on tho
steamship Germanicus, landing In
San Francisco a few weeks ago. Ho
went broke in San Francisco and rode
tho brako rods to Tacoma.
Not a word of complaint passed the
gritty little fellow's lips, and when ho
was offered money for a supper ho
said with evident effort: "Oh, that's
all right: I'll just wait till morning.
I won't bo hungry after I get to sleep,
and then in tho morning I will bo
ablo to earn my breakfast."
Resume Work on Street Contrac
tor Burns has resumed work on the
Improvements to Broadway street ex
tending to North Marshfleld with a
large force of men and a steam
grador. The fine weather of tho
present week has enabled him to
make great headway with tho im
provements to this street, which will
be one of tbo most important thor
oughfares when completed.
WB
same tlmo its efforts should be in the
direction of the moral", tho religious
and the elevating things of life.
For months Uev. Mr. Becket had
been making a fight against tho
saloons, but many of tho voters held
aloof and refused to sign a remon
strance. The dramatic club then pro
duced "Arthur Eustace, or, A Moth
er's Love," on tho stago in its first
and one of Us most successful efforts.
When the voters witnessed the fall oT
young Eustaco because his father had
rented a building for a saloon over
tho protest of the wife and mother,
public sentiment was revolutionized
and there was a stampede of voters
to tho minister's house to sign the
remonstrance against tho saloon.
Another Temperance Drama.
"Dot, a Miner's Daughter; or A
Glass of Wine," was- another drama
that was presented with much suc
cess by tho club and which went far
to confirm the temperance sentiment
and fix tho little town irrevocably in
its antagonism to the saloon.
The club has made a financial as
well as a moral or religious record.
The stage and stage settings have all
been paid for, and a few days ago tho
club purchased a piano and presented
it to the church. Other ministers are
looking a tho work and In other
towns tho stago Is to bo made an
adjunct to the church.
of a law, Bhall bo permitted to have
only ono wife.
"Who does not know that the only
way to be a conqueror In love Is to
run from women before It is too late?
"Should princesses love? They aro
merely political merchandise.
"The most beautiful women, to mo,
are those which we can get with the
most difficulty.
"Greatness has Its penalties.
Queens cannot go to the places where
ordinary women go."
Educate Them to Work.
On the education of women Napol
eon is quoted:
"I would not educate women to bo
fashion plates, nor society dames,
and not oven heads of households. I
would educate them to bo the real
housewives. By this I mean I would
teach them to do everything in the
household as poor women do. In
such households the mother is tho
real head of tho home.
"It is not good to tell young girls
that they are pretty. In this way tho
passionate and vain sides of their na
tures are awakened too early. They
will learn theso things without any
outside aid.
"Women understand how to dress
well only when they know how to
make their own dresses?'

NEW YORK, Jan. 11. A Washing

Leach said: "Wo had to change the

"Then somo ono said that if wo

BRANDY 150 YEARS OLD
A Bottle of the Vintage of 1757 Is
Found In Ransacking Garret of
Ancestor's Home.
NEW YOR.K, Jan. 11. Subtle
scents suggesting tho sunlit vine
yards of France, from which it Is
supposed to have como 150 years
ago, hang In lingering affection about
tho neck of a bottle of brandy which
was brought to light by It. W. Dry
don, who has been ransacking tho
garret of his ancestors. Tho bottle
was found in a box of selected pine
which had been put together with
screws and elaborately sealed.
Tho receptacle bore the stencil
marks on its lid "Lewis M. Cowels,
Esq., Baltimore, Md., 1757." When
tho cover was removed, the bottle,
which holds about a quart, was found
wrapped In newspaper bearing the
date of February C, 1804. There was
an old fashioned label with a red
border on It, on which was set forth
that the contents 'froro "Old French
Brandy of 1757. Presented to tho
sanitary fair by II. J. do Pyster."
The bottl" Lad boon purchased by
a relative of Mr. Dryden at the fair,
which was organized to raise funds
tor the soldiers wounded In the civil
war. Tho cork was surrounded by
a cockade of pink ribbon, and around
tho neck was a band of green fringe,
which, low descending, swept tho bot
tle's aged breast.
Mr. Dryden took the box to the
cafe of Emil Struover, at 87G Broad
way, where it was placed In tho win
dow for exhibition. Several offers
have been made for tho bottle, but
tho highest, $250, has been refused,
the owner declaring that he would
not think of disposing of such an
heirloom.
Brandy bearing the date of a cent
ury ago is offered on menus In this
city and London merchants quote it.
Mr. Dryden has not yet decided
whether he will sample the brandy.
Tho bottle is locked In a safe every
night.
MISS MYRA'S TONGUE ACnE-5.
Talked Too Much? No, No; Licked
Too Many Postage Stamps.
WINSTED, Conn., Jan. 8. Be
cause she licked so many postage
stamps three years ago Miss Myra
Silvernall, employed In the postofflco
In Norfolk, says her tongue "aches"
most of the time.
She was treated at first in Hart
ford, but got no relief. She has just
returned from a six weeks' stay at
St. Vincent's hospital In New York,
but her tongue still bothers her. Tho
case puzzles physicians, who think
that an oporation may have to bo per
formed. Her trouble has impaired
her general health.
