No detail« have taren arranged yet for
the wedding of ex President Harrison
beyond th<- fart that the ceremony will
b*‘ jrerf' roued in the daytime, probably
at 11 o'clock, by the rector of Sr. Thom­
as' church. New York, Rev. J. Weeley
Brown. Only a few friend« will be
present, and it w understood that no
members of the ex president's family
will be present. There w ill be no deco­
rations to speak of in the church, and
whether there will be a wedding march
played by the organist is not yet known.
The ex president, being a Presbyteri­
an, is not used to the forms and cere­
monies of the Episcopal church, and for
that reason the ceremony will lie as
simple as possible. There will be none
of the grand processioual music and
down the aisle marches. It is probable
that the couple will meet in front of the
aliar without any prearranged marching
at alL
Tb<ise who are close to the ex-presi­
dent think he will have, if possible, all
of hi* old cabinet members present.
General Benjamin F. Tracy will bo
among the guests. It is thought that Mr.
Iiarri-on’s old law partner, ex Attorney
General W. H. H. Miller, will be the
best mar,. After the marriage ceremony
the couple, it is thought, will go direct­
ly to Indianapolis and spend the honey­
moon at home.
James Gailagher, f irm<-rly a tele­
graph operator for the Wabash r- id at
Springfield, Ills., has given himself up
to the Chicago police, claiming that he
is haunted by the ghosts of victims uf a
wreck at Lexington, Mo., which, he
says, he was instrumental in causing.
“ When I saw the awful mistake Tliad
made.’’ he said, “ I ran away and suc­
ceeded in making my escajie. Since then
I have wandered all over the country,
but the scene of that wrecked train,
mixed with the cries of the injured and
d; ing, haunted me, and even at the pres­
ent time I see it all. My conscience ac­
cused me of being the cause of the lo.-s
of so many lives, and it has almost driv­
en me insane. Lately, however, they
have found me ont and have been fol­
lowing me wherever I go, and for that
reason I have come to give myself up. ’’
“ W ho are following you and where
are they now?” asked the sergeant.
“ Oh, it's the dead ones, their friends
and others, and they are all around me.
See, here they come now,” and with a
shriek the man suddenly jumped from
his chair and pointed at the wall. “ See,
they are coming, two by two, and are
going to avenge »heir brothers and sis­
ters and friend“. Save me, save nm! I
made a mistake in giving orders to the
engineer, and there goes his train,
wrecked. I hear the injured screaming.
I most go. ”
As the man finished he almost sank
to the floor with exhaustion. Sergeant
Kelly, now convinced that he was in­
sane, had him locked np in a cell and
then notified the city physician.
Information was received from Spring-
field that Gallagher is the son of a wid­
ow living there. About five years ago,
when a men, boy, he began work as a
telegraph operator for the Wabash road
at Springfield Junction, and afterward
worked at Decatur and other points on
the line in this state. Finally he was
given a steady position at Lexington,
Mo., and while there a wreck occurred
on the road, which resulted in the death
of several persons and the destruction of
a nnmber of valuable race horses.

It is not enough in such a field as curs
to build a church and open it s do- rs and
rail to the pa-sing people, “ C< me and
hear of God : repent and la-come good.”
If we followed any such method, our
hall w ould I <• emp’7 and tin -e f e w who
did enter would undoubtedly be psnple
who already care enough about God and
religion to wish to be there, being tlietn-
»elves alive to the need o f their souls.
No, that is not the class we seek. We
are sent to the godless, irreligious,
church hating, sin bound crowd which
holds in abhorrence all that savors of re­
ligion, righteousness or purity. It must
be reached.
This the Salvation Army has under­
taken to do in many ways: First, it
parades the streets where these people
lounge. After its w aving colors and uni­
formed troops flix-k the poor, the ragged,
the drunken, the dirty, the criminal,
and the desperate classes, and you can
often see them trooping to the Army hall,
w hich has been made suitable for them
in all its appointments and where a
welcome is extended to one and all. for
if any have the preference in our Salva­
tion meetings, it should certainly be
given to the most drunken and forlorn.
The next way of reaching these peo­
ple is the carrying of our warfare into
their own haunts. Saloons, dives and
evil resorts are systematically visited.
have accepted us, our literature and our
methods as theirs. In the slum depart­
ment of our work alone 498 meetings
were held in saloons in six months,
w hile 28,996 v is its were paid in saloons
and dives; 28,080 War Crys were sold,
the larger number of these being sold in
saloons. This represents the work of
only between 30 and 40 women in seven
cities. It should be remembered that we
do not send out into this work women
whose former lives have been lived in
vice or squalor or degradation. They are
girls from pure homes; girls as true and
modest and refined in feeling as you can
find anywhere; for it has always seemed
to me that the greater the need, the
darker the vice, the more carefully
should we choose the purest instruments
to go in and represent Christ and do his
work.
And what of the result? To receive a
hearty welcome, to obtain a large circu­
lation for our paper among saloon pa­
trons, to be kindly received by poor out­
casts whom society calls lost and de­
graded is all very good and very cheer­
ing, but if there was nothing more to
show for it the Army would be bitterly
disappointed. I can, however, definitely
state that from facts brought under my
own observation, as well as reports from
hundreds of my comrades, many clear
cases of conversion and real transforma­
tions of life have resulted from this
work, and that thousands, who other­
wise never would have come to our
meetings, or thought of going to a place
of worship, have so had their interest
aroused that they have afterwaid be
come faithful attendants of our meet­
ings, and later true, earnest soldiers of
the cross.—Maud Ballington Booth ill

and the people there are dealt with and
prayed with just as earnestly as if we
were talking with them in our own
meeting place. In this way meetings
are constantly held and souls saved
right in the enemy's own reserves, and
the fearless and loving spirit that nerves
our people to these persistent researches
after lost souls often in itself wins
their love and respect, their good will
and their confidence in such a way that
they look upon us as friends and neigh­
bors indeed and turn to us in a ready,
open hearted manner that they would
never do to those who live at a distance
from them or who approach them with
the ordinary religious methods.
Again, there is the most thorough
visitation carried on by our workers.
The women of our Blum brigades visit
the wretched homes, lodging houses aud
tenements iu the neighborhoods in
which they live, that they may win the
hearts of the people, not so much by
their message and their prayers, though
they are earnest in both, but by tlieir
loving services and tlieir practical re­
ligion lived ont in the vilest environ­
ments. They nurse the sick, care for
the starving, wash ‘he babies, sit up
with the dying and often clean, scrub
aud disinfect the most loathsome abodes,

AFTER PADEREWSKI.

Ignace Jan Paderewski is to be the
guest of honor at a reception to be given
March 13 by President Harper of the
University of Chicago. President Har­
per is under suspicion of setting a trap
for the man of the Leonine head. It is
hinted he has designs on the magnetic
digits of his guest for his prospective
conservatory of music.
Efforts have been renewed at the uni­
versity lately to complete the details for
a musical department that shall eclipse
anything of the kind in this country
and rival similar schools in Europe. It
is to be on a scale iu keeping with all
the other enterprises undertaken by the
wonderful “ Aladdin of Chicago.” The
plans as discussed thus far contemplate
a musical temple, to cost $500,000 or
more.
Dr. Harper ia said to have his hungry
eyes already on several noted leaders iu
the art musical. And so, whether Pad­
erewski suspects the trap or refuses to
play iu the presence of the masters of
academic music, he may take this as a
quiet tip that there is a golden opportu­
nity to win the everlasting loyalty of

The missionaries among tlie Lapps
nowadays do not experience the difficul­
ties usually encouiifw-d by those who
endeavor to spread the gospel in savage
or semisavage bands. The reason of this
is that the Lapps have a translation of
the Bible, aud they have had it for
more than a quarter of a century. It
was given to them by a murderer and
under most extraordinary circumstances.
Thirty-five or forty years ago there was
an attempt made to Christianize this
rnde boreal people, but the efforts of
the evangelists were met by stout oppo­
sition on all sides. Finally tho opposers
of the heathen Christians resorted to
bloodshed as a means of getting rid of
the obnoxious ministers and teachers.
Riots broke ont in several villages and
camps on the same night, aud dozens of
missionaries were murdered. The ring­
leaders and instigators of the riot were
eventually apprehended and brought to
justice, a score or more of them being
hanged and the others imprisoned for
life.
Among those doomed to life confine
ment was one Lars Haetta, an ignorant
young fisherman. He could neither read
Dor write, but soon learned both when he
found that it was the only means left
open for employing either the hands or
the mind. Next he became deeply inter­
ested in the Bible, the very book which
he had attempted to keep out of the
hands of the people. After studying it a
year or two he formed tl.e project of
translating it into the Lapp tongue.
This was quite a difficult task for one
of such a limited education who had
to make use of a language not too ex­
pressive at the best, but after nearly 20
years of labor he completed the task
and was given his liberty for the bene­
fits which he had conferred upon his
people, —St. Louis Republic.
