'Thwe men," he said, "can he found In

'The worst Insult to Ood Is the sin of

cended from a chain on his breast and the
crucifix dropped to the stage floor. Tho
bishop lost no time whatever, tmt went on
with his discourse nnd later replaced the
emblem of faith on the chain.
The theatre was crowded. The twenty.
tx hundred scats wore tnken long before
12:30, and many had to stand during tho
germon.
TEST OF CHRISTIANITY
THEME OF LENTEN TALK
In speaking on "Tho Acid Test of Chris
tian Conduct" at tho noonday Lenten serv
ice at St. Stephen's Church. Tenth below
Chestnut, today, the Rev. John McUann, of
Springfield, Mass., sMil: "Stay Ood grant
the United States of America the courage
nf self-judgment In the present crisis, for
only then can Christ forglvo us for what
"We cannot judge one ano'ther fairly."
aald the speaker. "We arc cither too severe
or too lenient. We must judge ourselves.
nd self-Judgment puts' men In the way of
freedom."
SURMISSION TO THINGS
E ,imrirri A TT V ClinnVKTWll
The willingness of men to take up the
word and plunge Into the red of battle
and their shirking of tho little every-day
tauntlngs that arise In the workaday
scheme of life was dwelt upon by the Rev.
.Carl M. Block, of Haddonfleld. N'. J., In
the noonday Lenten sen Ice today nt Old
St. Paul's Church, Third street below Wal
nut. "It Is tho little things that count." said
the speaker, "because the big things aie
based on them Tho home Is n mighty fac
tor In human life, and yet It Is the little
veryday upsets that manage to completely
undermine It. Tho law of compensation ap
plies to all classes of life. What one man
has another man lacks. There must bo a
tolerance and submission to" the things that
must be'"
SOLACE OF CONFESSIONAL
PRIEST'S LENTEN THEME
The natural as well as the supernatural
colacs of tho confesslonnl was described
by the Rev. John J. Greene, S .!., In tho
Church, Wllllng's Alley, toda. "Great
peice and consolation," Father Greene
faijl, "come from confiding our troubles to
R (friend, What greater peace must come
frpm unburdening our hearts, to God "Him
(elf?" 'The very unusualness of confession, the
Weaker said, proves the divinity of the in
itiation. It Is a supreme net for a man
to disclose the Innermost secrets of his life
nj only a supremo sacrament could make
him be willing to do so.
AMERICAN BEAUTY

Chairman of National Rose Fes

The American Beauty Is tho sweetest rose

This may sound like a bromldlc platitude,

Ifled it by saying that no amount of cross
breeding on the part of foreign or home
growers has ever been able to produce a
rose whose fragrance equals that of the
American Beauty.
To the casual uninitiated and to the just
Plain lover of the rose, to whom the little
tthlte sticks attached to the bushes do not
mean a very great deal, there seem to be
Plenty of blooms that vie with the vivid

gasped the mate.
Break l up mo small pieces and ham.
mcr It Into tho blamed roof. Salt the show
with a seven-ounce god, that's what I'm
going to do!"
Captain Hayes had cast anchor some
months beforo at tho Inlet's mouth, in his
schooner, the Three Moons, hoping to obtain
some of the rich wash dirt that was being
Jiucketed from tho gullies and creek beds
by gangs of alien adventurers.
Hayes had no capital to support his ven
ture : his crew was unpaid, and each week
saw him sinking Into the heart of tho hill,
where there was neither gold no payablo
wash dirt. The Idea of salting his claim
had corners a desperate alternative,
The local Hindoos desired his claim; day
nnd night they watched his entry Into the
tunnel, fully believing that he had stiuck
tho northern limit of tho great Aladdin
reef, which had returned over $500,000 In
dividends to its shareholders only a few
months before. Bully Hayes was hardly
the man to disappoint a party of Hindu
mining speculators.
Two days after the salting operations a
party of Hindoos, headed by Ganem Singh.
a wealthy mining speculator, strolled leis
urely from tho township and scrambled
down the hillside.
"One thousand dollars for your stone
heap, Capateen Hayes," he drawled lazily.
"Kb, what you think?"
Hayes shrugged, while his eyes grow
hard at the points. "Make It $2000, Ganem
Singh, and I'll hand you tho certificate."
Tho buccaneer went aboard tho schooner.
six hours later, nnd deposited a parcel oi
Knglish and American money Inside the
Iron safe that stood In his cabin.
"The Hindoo gold-scouters have bought
me out. Bill," he confided to the mate. "And
the point that tioubleM me Is that we can't
put to sea without stores and a new llg
out "
While Hayes was nt L'mu Creek, ordering
stores to be taken aboard the schooner.
Ganem Singh had collected a gang of
coolies and was soon pushing on woik
within the gold-salted mine under the hill.
Lato In the afternoon the serang In charge
of the tunnel loosened with a pick several
small pieces of gold that shone between the
crannies of an overhanging reef. Ganem
was beside him like a panther on the blood
scent. Other tiny pellets were dug out
from the face of the reef and placed In
Ganem's trembling palm.
"Scraps scraps !" he cried fiercely
"There Is nothing behind them ! Still, we
must work on, the wall of the rock may
conceal undieamt of riches. Let us "
A coolie rushed forward from the end
of the workings exhibiting several small
slugs of hammered gold. One piece, larger
than the others, bore a partially effaced
Hindu Inscription that brought a cry of
rage from the coolie gang. Another pellet,
taken from a water-worn chink in the roof,
proved to be one of the finely chiseled fea
tures of the god,
"By Ganesh. It Is the nose of Brahma '"
coughed the serang. "What magic is this?"
Other portions of the god were swiftly
unearthed, until It lay in fifty pieces before
the scowling mob within the tunnel.
When Captain Hays boarded the schooner
and was about to descend to the cabin he
saw a halt empty paint pot that had been
left on tho stairhead. '
Stooping, he raised It curiously, and then
uttered a cry of surprise. Inside the pot
sat a small brass Image or Brahma. With
an oath he cast It overboard In time to see
a sheet of flame burst from the pot, fol
lowed by a muffled roar as it sanl? in the
water.
By degrees it dawned on the buccaneer
that Ganem Singh was responsible for the
attempts on his life Ho felt certain, too,
that the Hindoos had unearthed portions of
the gold from the mine, nnd ho was now
experiencing the first symptoms of their
anger.
Drawing the cash box from the cabin
safe, he glanced at the tightly packed rows
of Knglish and American gold coins he had
received from Ganem Singh. In all his llfo
Hayes jiad neer felt his limbs tremble so
violently : the cash box rattled In his hands
au though a score of fingers were rapping
Its sides nnd bottom. The rows of coln,s
broke from the bottom of the box, scat
tering over, his hand In n chinking wave.
Tho buccaneer drew away astounded, a
touch of fear In his eyes. His brain was
perfectly free from alcohol, his senses keen
ns n new' blade, yet before him, inside the
safe, stood his old familiar casu nox, a
jangling pandemonium of dancing coins.
Up and over bis bare feet they rolled
and spun, 2000 strong, ringing, floating
nround his body until each gold piece ap
peared to be invested with the vitality of a
swallow.
Tho. mellow chink of the money ceased
suddenlv ; tho sound took on a new note
a thudding bullet-like whang as the flying
coins struck the joists and sides of the
cabin, tho mass of dlsplacpil money be

"It was Radlzar Singh who brought about

Poor little shepherdess vailing there
All tho time for jour china poles.
Posies pale for her jet-black hair!
Doesn't she wait (oh, tho anxious glances!)

A crown to finish a dainty toilette,

Minutes 'neath a china sun?)

MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON
How Dicku's Mother Rescued
and His
umttAT startled fawn look In your fnce
X is very necomlng," mocked Harry
Underwood.
Of course, I knew that his melodramatic
nonsense of a moment befoio had been the
veriest buffoonery born of his drink-muddled
brain, t knew, too, that he had no other
thought save the mimicry of n melodrama
lllaln. .which It Is his chief delight to
affect.
But even with this knowledge nppenllng
to my saner self, I could not help shuddering
and paling nt hla burlesque threat to carry
me off to some lonely Island
Call It superstition, premonition, what you
will, yet, ridiculous ns It may sound, 1 feel
a sinister mennce whenever Ilnrrj" Under
wood Is near me.
Almost from the moment his black eyes
looked Into mine when Dicky Introduced me
to him nt the theatre 1 have had the same
unennny feeling. It Is more than dislike.
It Is positive dread.
Somewhere, somehow, I know that Harry
Underwood will cause me very real trouble
and terror.
But it is never my way to worry over
the future when theie Is any present dif
ficulty confronting me My problem now
was to get away from him without attract
ing any more attention So 1 forced my
voice to calmness.
"How Is Mrs. Underwood''" I said ban
ally. "I hope she Is well I haven't seen
her since I was at j'our home last Sunday"
"Gee, but you'ro interested In LH's
health," he commented. "I wish j-ou would
stir up a little Interest In mine LH's nil

appeared to be much Interested In the leap

"They're sick men. too." he said, "but
they've still got a holdover from last night
Now, 1 haven't any holdover. I'm just sick
These fellows ought to be ashamed of

I'm ashamed of them. Tlrej'd like to meet
you, I know, but I won't let them. I posl
