THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. A CLERGYMAN BEERSELLER. Hoboken, Kew Jjr, Presents Thli Ca rina! Anomaly. Clftcslc Hoboken has a preaching saloon-keeper, or did have until the church authorities dropped hlui because of his lay occupation. In an address In his own defense before the tribunal of his church he said in extenuation of his conduct: "As the Classis is alroady informed," he said, "ray family consists of mynolf, my wife and five children. The First German Evangelical Church gave me a salary of $000 a year, and then reduced It to 1700. Now, you know, gentlemen, that I could not live on such a small salary. I looked around for another church that would give me a better sal ary, but they were worse than my Jer sey church. i. "I did not go into the saloon business until I had carefully talked over this matter with my friends. Then I de cided to embark in the saloon business In. Hoboken. Thank God, I have pros pered. I believe a man may lead an honorable life even if he is a saloon' keeper. I have tried to sow good seeds Bince I have been a saloon-keeper. I never begin the day without family de votions, and we never go to bod without having prayers. I did what I beliove to have been my duty in tue matter. have done it conscientiously. I don't soli beer to make money, but to support my family." "What about selling beer on Sunday, brother?" asked the Rev. Mr. Brett. "I would be the first to say saloons should be closed on Sunday forenoon, but being a German I cannot see why It is not proper to drink beer on Sunday afternoon. In Germany ministers with their families go to the public places on Sunday afternoon to drink beer," "Yes, bat you violate the law by sell tng beer on Sunday," continued Mr. Brett. "I did not want to sell beer on Sun day, but In the beginning Christian Os- tendorf, the brewery collector, told me I would be lost if I did not keep open Sunday. Over in Hoboken, you know, all the places are open on Sunday, and we don't have to pay any protection either. My customers would boycott me if I did not keep open, and I would not be prosperous. Customers gave me to understand that if they could not get beer on Sunday they would not come to my place on week days. My beer col lector told me to be sure and keep open on Sunday afternoons." "Did you know that yon were violat ing the law by so doing!" asked Mr, Clint. "I knew it was illegal, but over in Hoboken the Sunday closing law is not enforced. If I had been told by a single policeman to close up, I would not have sold a drop of beer, but not a single policeman has bothered me. I admit it may not be just a nice thing for an or dained minister to conduct a saloon. but there is nothing contemptible or scandalous about the business. While God gives people beer to drink, surely there must be some one to dispense the drinks. "I am prepared to cheerfully take np the ministry again if I could find a church that would give me a salary large enough to support my family, but you can't pay rent and educate five chil dren on $700 a year. One of my sons is studying medicine, and that costs a great deal." The Classis, after a secret session which lasted an hour, decided to sus pend Mr. Feicke and drop his name from the roll. This leaves the door open for him to return if he should give up the saloon business. The French In Madagascar. Statistics of the French expedition to Madagascar show that of 17,000 troops sent to Majunga 8,000 died and 0,000 were sent home as invalids. This ex cessive mortality, it is said, arose from lack of hygienic methods generally and insufficient attention to procedures usu- ally adopted to diminish .sickness and death while campaigning in highly ma larious regions. The causes have been summed up as follows: The average age of the soldiers employed being too young that is, from 20 to 22 years of age; the heavy weight of baggage and accoutrements carried under a fierce sun, and insufficient medical supplies and arrangements for the sick. Young troops garrisoned at TamaUtve were cooped up in a narrow belt of sand for six months, four of which were the most unhealthy of the year, harassed by the Hovas and exhausted by incessant trench work and fatigues, and unsup- plied with proper nutritive rations. Phil Armour1! Modest I.lfo. Philip D. Armour, the Chicago mil lionaire, carries into his business1 the working habits he learned as a boy on his father's New York farm. He rises with the sun every morning, has break fast at 6 o'clock, and is at his office by 7 o clock. At noon he has a simple lun cheon, usually consisting of nothing but bread and milk, after which, of late years, it is his custom to take a short nap. He is in bod usually by 9 o'clock every night. Speaker Heed' Compelling Smile, Speaker Reed's smile is thus described by a New England admirer of the great Maine statesman : "The Reed smile is a revelation. It is the very apotheosis of geniality. When it comes, not by gen tle gradations, hesitatingly, as smiles sometimes come, but in a sudden burst of effulgence, overspreading that ro tund, hairless countenance and dispell ing the shades of care, it would compel a responsive tribute from dumb brutes." Potatoes at Ten Cents a Bushel. About IS, 000 tons of Btaich have been made from potatoes this season in the three States of Wisconsin, Minnesota and North Dakota. Not far from three and a half million bushels of potatoes nave been thus used, and yet this repre sents about half the product of the po tato bolt. The farmers have reoelved an average price of tea cents a bushel tee potatoes. C0L0ES IN EOSlEItY.

Pennsylvania Post Offices, Pennsylvania has 11 first class post offices, 57 second, 187 third, and hundreds of little fellows who don't make any fuss, but are worlh their weight in gold to the people they accommodate. Her presidential of fices do an annual business of 5,378,- 025.51, receive $43,025 in salaries, expend $835,855.06 for clerk hire, $1,332,891.28 for carriers, and they turn into Uncle Sam's treasury a net revenue of $2,607,789.25. On June 3c, 1805, Pennsylvania had 4,080 post offices of all grades, and it might be said right here that the Keystone state has more post offices than any other state in the Union. She leads New York by 1,368 offices and Ohio by 1,479. It's the fad to have a cold, and coughing and sneezing are all the rage. Almost everybody has a cold, and those who haven't are getting there as rapidly as possible in order to be m line. It s not unusual to hear a conversation something like this : " Atchew f Good evedig. Is your code ady better?" " Do dod a bid, I'b as hoarse as a fog hord." There are colds of every variety in the winter display colds plain, and colds with frills, colds for street wear, and those suitable for evening dress, some lovely imported colds, and some that are sky blue, with dark brown trimmings. There is no monoply on colds, as there is an ample variety of all kinds, and enough for everybody to have one. Propagates Angle Worms. A Wayne county farmer has evolv ed a new industry which promises to become profitable. He has gone into the business of propagating angle worms for fishermen. He has been experimenting for two years and has had calls for all that he has to dispose of at $1 a quart. Berks county farmers are offered but 18 cents a bushel for potatoes, and thousands of bushels are stored in cellars in anticipation of an ad vance. It is said that there is very little hope of an advance, as the sar plus crop still in the hands of the producers is the largest on record.

The Wonders of Transposition. The word "time" admits of a very peculiar arrangement of its letters The four letters of the word transpos ed and read backwards and forwards and up and down give us four perfect English and Latin words.

Y recently published the following in teresting account of how William V. Adams of 127 South avenue, that city was saved from a painful operation by the use of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. Mr. Adams said : "Three years ago I was taken with kidney disease very badly j at times I was completely prostrated ; in fact, was so bad that the day was set for the doctors to perform nn operation upon me. Hut I decided I would not submit. I hail been put in hot water baths, and, in fact, nearly every means was tried to help me. Upon the day set for the operation I com menced the use of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, and from that moment began to gain, and it was not long before I was entirely cured and have had no return of the trouble since. My weight has in creased and I never was so well as I am now. I have recommended OR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY to many people, for it saved my life," In speaking to Mrs. Adams, she said: "About a year ago I was in a very feeble slate of health, being completely rundown. I had doctored considerably, but without permanent relief. One day one of my neighbors advised me to take Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, which I did My trouble was dyspepsia, and for a long while I was unable to be about at all ; but after taking a few doses I was completely cured, and now enjoy good health." Hundreds of men and women with that "run down" condition, unable to work, have recovered health and strength through this remarkable remedy.
