About the time of the collapse of the

that he was chasing Wigfall. "If I fall

There was one occasion when Sir
Henry Irving received from one of the
supernumeraries of the Lyceum Thea

to satisfy him. It was the man's duty
to say simply, "The enemy is upon us,"
which he uttered at rehearsal in a poor,
whining way. "Can't you say it bet
ter?" shouted Irving; "repeat it aa I
do." And he gave the words with dig
nity, with all his well-known dramatic
force. "If I could say it like that," re
plied the man, "1 shouldn't be working
for twenty-five shillings a week."

said, "Pray, sir, do you know the dif
ference between a horse and a cow?"
"1 acknowledge my ignorance," replied
the reverend gentleman; "I hardly
know the difference between a horse
and a cow, or between a bull and a
bully only a bull, I am told, has horns,

the students of a religious college in the
East, one of the professors stepped for
ward and offered a pra'yer, injvhich he
said: "Oh, Lord, Thou knowest that

work with renewed vigor. We have to
night with us a gentleman from
France, whose criticisms are witty and
refined, but subtle; and we pray Thee
to so prepare our minds that we may
thoroughly understand and enjoy
them." "I am still wondering," said
O'Rell, "whether my lectures are so
subtle as to need praying over, or
whether those particular auditors were
so dull that they needed divine assist

am morally certain that they showed,
by their appreciation, that the profes

BIBLE OF THE MORMONS.
Its Origin as Explained by Mrs. Dia
dama Chittenden.
Mrs. Diadama Chittenden, of Utica,
Mo., was borji at Shipton, Lower Can
ada, May 31, 1813, her maiden name
being Whitney. In 1852 she was mar
ried to Roderick M. Chittenden, and lo
cated In Utica in 1860, where she has
resided continuously ever since. She
was for many years engaged in the
mercantile business with her husband,
-and In the early '00s did much buying,
purchasing supplies at Quincy, Lexing
ton and other points.
Mrs. Chittenden made many long
trips on horseback in those days, and
encountered many difficulties and ad
ventures, always being active and alert
and able to cope with all obstructions.
This activity she still retains, and at
her present great age she is able to do
all her own work, to sew and read with
out the aid of glasses, and, being a
highly educated lady, she keeps fully
In touch with the events of the day.
She is an entertaining conversational
ist, and relates many interesting inci
dents connected with her early life.
One of her vivid memories is of the
origin of. the Mormon Bible. As she re
members, there was a Mr. Spafford, a
millwright and miller in the employ of
Esquire Wright, of Conneaut (then call
ed Salem), Ohio. He was afflicted with
consumption and did but little manual
labor, though he had the oversight of
several industries.
Id general conversation with some
associates one day he made the asser
tion that they knew nothing about the
Bible, and to prove It he said he would
write a chapter of his own and then
read a chapter from the Bible, and he
claimed they could not tell which was
which. The tests were many, and
chances were against Spafford, but he
won, and it helped much to relieve his
last days.
In the employ of Squire Wright was
a boy named Joseph Smith, who was
observed to be an attentive listener at
many of the readings.
Shortly after Spafford died, and, al
though these papers were diligently
searched for, they were never found.
Some years after the Mormon Bible,
said to have been "revealed" to Joseph
Smith, appeared, and the three ac
quaintances of Spafford Dr. Hart,
Esquire Wright and Zapb Lake after
examining it, made an affidavit and
published it in the Salem Reporter to
the effect that the greater part of the
Mormon Bible was Identical with the
manuscripts written by their friend
Spafford.
All of these parties were well known
to Mrs. Chittenden, whose memory is
very clear and distinct. Kansas City

ANAM RAISES EXCELLENT TEA.
French Colony Promises to Become a
Competitor of China and Japan.
In a recent report to the State De
partment United States Consul John C.
Covert at Lyons writes of the tea and
coffee production in Anam and Mada
gascar. He says:
The year 1804 was the first In which
tea from one of her colonies was offer
ed in France. In that year 7,500
pounds were received from Anam. In
1896 the receipts jumped up to 10,296
pounds, in 1897 to 13,000 pounds. In
1898 the imports of tea from Anam into
France were 42,262 pounds. The fig
ures for 1899 are not accessible, but it
is estimated that the exports will be
not less than 140,000 pounds.
"Up to 1892 Anam tea was cultivated
only for use among the natives, and the
proposition to cultivate it for European
consumption seemed a chimera. But
the consumption of tea in France was
Increasing very rapidly. From 1,147,
635 pounds consumed in 1S92 the quan
tity rose to 1,794,832 pounds in 1898,
and it Is believed to have increased by
nearly another 100,000 pounds in 1899.
The supply was almost entirely from
China and Ceylon.
"This tea from Anam is said to equal
the finest article produced in China. It
is in very general use in the French
army and in Anam, and it is believed
to be only a question of time when it
will fill the entire demand in France.
The production is daily increasing. The
old colonists are going into the busi
ness of raising tea, finding it more
profitable than any other occupation.
"The production of coffee on the east
ern coast of Madagascar is expected to
soon develop into important propor
tions. In the past it has been insignifi
cant, but the government has published
figures setting forth the estimated crop
for 1894 at 713.475 kilograms (equal to
1,573,000 pounds). This estimated re
sult is considered very satisfactory, in
asmuch as the area planted is not half
the cpltivatable territory of the island.
The receipts of coffee from all the
French colonies in 1899 were only 963,
000 kilograms (2,123,000 pounds)."
WOULD SUPPRESS SWEARING.
Regarding Rights of People Who Ob
ject to Profanity.
What reason under the sun can be
given why men should be permitted to
curse at their own pleasure in public
places to the discomfort of some and
to the shame of others? We recall au
incident last summer which struck us
forcibly as an illustration of what
should happen everywhere In this free
country where the circumstances are
the same, says the New Haven Regis
ter. A tipsy loafer boarded the car at
Savin Rock and took a front seat. Al
most Incidentally he began to talk,
using language which was both pro
fane and indecent. There was no rea
son why the women and children pres
ent should be obliged to listen to his
talk. Although the. man had paid his
fare, the demand was made that he be
put off, which, after some delay, was
done, to the relief of every passenger.
The philosophy which justified the
ejectment of the profane swearer from
the car justifies his suppression wher
ever he makes others uncomfortable.
Not one of us would hesitate longer
than was necessary to take the legal
steps against a swearing neighbor who
made .himself a terror and nuisance
from morning till night. A man or a
woman has a perfect legal right to
walk freely about the city and demand
that his or her ears shall not be as
saulted by oaths and indecent speeches.
It is not at all a question of boarding
school government. It is as legitimate
a function or obligation of the authori
ties as it Is to keep the streets clean.
It of course does not follow that be
cause a man freely uses profane lan
guage he Is an evil member of society.
It is, in a majority of cases, a habit
pure and simple, but even habits are
to be condemned which make other
people uncomfortable and wretched.
The Power of Music.
"Music has charms to soothe the sa v
age breast," and it has other uses, as
will appear from the following anec
dote: A famous musician was spending a
short holiday in the country. On Sun
day he went to church and asked the
organist If he would let him play the
organ "exodus."
Consent was given, and the stranger
produced such wonderful and beautiful
music that everybody kept th'ir seats
to enjoy it. This vexed the regular
organist, who had his own Ideas of
what an exodus was Intended for.
"That kind of playing," he whispered
anxiously, "will never get ';he people
out. I'll show you how to dc It."
With that, he pushed the volunteer
aside, took his place, and begtn droning
away fn his usual style. Speedily the
congregation arose from the pews and
fled.
"There:" cried he, with a self-satisfied
senile, "that is the way to play them
out!"
Prussian Millionaires.
At the head of the list of the big mil
lionaires of Prussia stands M. Roth
schild with 10,740,000 and an income
of about 350,800. In one year his for
tune increased by more than half a mil
lion sterling. After him comes M.
Krupp with 6,400,000 and an income
of 450,000. After them come two land
ed proprietors with 4,260,000 and 3,
200,000 respectively, and a third with
3,000,000.
Monument to Potatoes.
A seven-foot granite monument in the
upper Harz, Germany, has an iron tab
let inscribed: "Here, In the year 1847,
the first trials were made with the cut
tlvatloa of the potato."
BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.
The s'on is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.
Eternal vigilance ht the price
of a beautiful complexion
when such remedies are relied on.
Mr. H. T. Shobe. 2704 Lucas Avenue, St. Louis,
Mc says : "My daughter was afflicted lor years
With a disfiguring eruption on her face, which
resisted all treatment. She was taken to two
celebrated health SDrimrs. but received no bene
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with-
out result, until we decided to try S. S. S. , and by
the time the first bottle was finished the eruption
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.
She is now seventeen years, old. and not a sign of
S. S. S. is a positive, unfailing cure for
the worst forms of skin troubles. It is
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the
only one guaranteed purely vegetable.
