SUPERINTENDENTS.
Shall Sunday Schools Adopt the Sjs-
tem of Paying Salaries to Them?
IN EVER! SENSE IT WOULD PAY.
Eereral Interesting Questions Propounded
for the Next Quiz Day.
JiCWSI SOTS FEOM THE CHURCHES
A paper that wonted ranch interest was
read at the Presbyterian Ministerial Asso
ciation, the 10th insL. by Kev. W. E. Don
aldson, pastor of the Bethel Presbyter
Ian Church, Allegheny. Tne theme was
"Salaried Sunday School Superintendents."
It being a new idea to many who think all
Sunday school work should be voluntary,
there was considerable divergency of views
as to iU expediency. A summary of the
paper is given:
"The Sunday school has steadily risen
from a place of little or no importance, as
taany considered It in its early history, to a
place at the side of, and inseparably con
nected with, the church. The relation has
become more intimate, and the pastors look
"How more than ever before to the Sunday
school as the source from which the church
will increase its membership. The superin
tendent is usually a business man who has
but little time to attend to the school.
"Some churches or schools have said to
their superintendents, Ve appreciate your
work in the school, and lhat you may de
vote all vour time to it, we offer yon a salary,
belle-Tine that tne results of the work will fully
justify the additional expense.' Movements In
this line are new, ana pastors are slow to adopt
them till they have been tried.
"The first one to receive a salary, at least as
far a is mown at present, was Deacon John
WianLof the South Concrecational Church,
Ifew Britain. Conn., in March, 1SSL, of whom it
is said. "Under Mr. Wiard the school has stead
ily inci eased in membership and in attendance
till they have outgrown everything, and have
lieen compelled to build a new and larcer
house. The school has multiplied two or three
times, and now stands as one of the leading
schools of New England. Kev. E. P. Arm
strong, Superintendent of the training school
for bunday school workers in Springfield,
Mass, says: There are in the Dnited States
eight salaried superintendents of whom I know
one in a Presbyterian church, two in Baptist
churches, four in Congregational churches;
also there are CI lay helpers who perform the
duties ol Sunday school superintendents. Of
the pastors whom I know 1 have yet to find one
who will not urge the great assistance derived
and relief gained from their labors, besides the
Increased work accomplished.'
"A report equally good comes from the First
Congregational Sunday School. Oakland, CaL,
of which Rev. J. Bea is the superintendent,
where It has been in operation over seven
rears. Mr. Bea was brought up In the First
Presbyterian Church of this city, and is. there
fore, especially interested in Cbnstian work in
these cities. Mr. Marion Lawrence, Superin
tendent of the Congregational Sunday School,
"Washington street. Toledo, O.. shows conclus
ively that it has resulted iavoraDiy, ana says:
In every sense, it pays.'
The plan will not be adopted in all parts of
the country, but most of the churches in the
cities and larger towns might, by this plan,
solve the now perplexing question, 'How to
reach the masses and bring them directly under
the influence of the churchT Many are the
instances In which whole families have been
brought luto the church by first getting the
children into the Sunday school.
"Of course such a superintendent should un
derstand that his work must be nnder the
supervision and have the approval of the pastor
and officers of the church. In large churches
Such a man, thoroughly adapted to and
equipped for his work, might be a power for
good to the church and community. In the
Presbyterian Church there are 117 schools of
between 4U0 and 600 members; 134 of between
600 and 3,000;-25 of between 1,000 and 2,000, and
S with over 2.000. Surel v these are large enough
to require the whole time and attention of the
superintendents thereof.
The fields are opening and develoving, the
harvest is ripening, where are the reapers!
"Men don't believe in a devil now as their fathers
used to do;
They've roreed the door of the Broadest creed to
let bis majesty through: ,
There Isn't a print of his cloven' hoof, or a fiery
dart from his bo w
To be found Id earth or air to-day, for the world
has voted It bo.
"But who Is mixing the fatal draught that palsies
heart and brain.
And loads the bier of each passing year with ten
hundred thousand slain?
Who dogs the steps or the tolling saint and digs
the pits Tor his reetr
V, ho cows the tares on the fields of Time whereon
bod sows Ills wheat;
The devil was fairly voted out, and of course the
devil's cone:
Hut simple people would like to know who carries
his business onr"

THE EXPL0REK IN GIFT.
Bin. Amelia B. Edwnrdu, tho FnmousEgypt
oloelsr, to Lecture In Pittsburg.
Of Amelia B. Edwards, Ph. D., L. H. D.,
LL. D., etc., the merest announcement of
whose forthcoming lecture in this city will
be hailed with delight, it may truly be said
that she is the most learned of her sex. This
gifted and brilliant woman popular novel
ist, journalist, critic, traveler, Egyptologist,
founder and honorary secretary of the
Egypt Exploration Fund has stepped into
the front rank of living lecturers. She is
addressing crowded audiences, this season of
1889-90, in the great cities, upon Egyptian,
Grace-Egyptian and Biblical-Egyptian
subjects. The picturesqueness of her style,
the interest of her facts and the sympathetic
charm of her delivery --have evoked
unwonted enthusiasm. Her voice is
peculiarly clear, agreeable, and far
reaching, and she possesses, in a
remarkable degree, the power of holding
her audiences. Herself a practical arcb
sologist, she relates the wonders of our
inheritance in ancient Egypt and the stir
ring story of Egyptian exploration, with an
intellectual vividness which makes those
far-away subjects as interesting as a sensa
tional romance. Herself a skillful artist,
she can, in an instant, deftly illustrate with
chalk some hieroglyphic pnzzle or curious
relationship between Egyptian and Greek
arts. Her delicate and spirited pencil, for
example, produced the illustrations which
so charmingly embellish- her "A Thousand
Miles Up the Nile" and her book on the
Dolomite Mountains. Her verbal, as well
as her pencil sketches, are renowned for
their accuracy even in details, and this
accuracy, based on profound and exhaustive
study ot the subject, is what makes Miss
Edwards'llectures upon Egypt of the great
est value to her hearers as behind their
Jiictorialization and humor is an immense
und of scientific knowledge upon the sub
ject treated. .
Her appearance at Old City Hall on the
evening of March 4, under the auspices of
the Press Club, may well be set down as an
occasion of the most absorbing interest. It
is to be regretted that the extraordinary de
mand in every city to hear bei renders it
impossible for her to give us more than one
lecture. But we shall hear her to the best
advantage and upon a subject "The Ex
plorer in Egypt" that is the toost im
portant iu even her wide range of topics.
An Eiffel Tower In Icei
The erection of the Eiffel tower in Paris
has suggested a mdnument of similar design
on the banks of the Neva, at St. Petersburg.
The Russian tower, however, iv hardly so
solid and durable as the work of M. Eiffel, -since
it is constructed wholly of ice. It is
upward of ISO feet in height, and is com
posed of 10,000 blocks. There is a restau
rant on the first platform. The transpar
ent edifice has a most ethereal appearance
at night time when it is illuminated by

EPHESUS A.ND ITS WOKDEBFUL EDINS
(connsspoanxscx or rat dispatch. 3
Liverpool, January 25. Dr. Talmage,
in a recent letter to his multitudinous
friends, has described iu his own peculiar
style our strange and Interesting experience
while sheltered from the Inclemency -of the
weather beneath the roof of one of the many
mad houses that constitnte the ambitious
Bedouin settlement known as "The Village
of the Sun."
Early dawn the next morning fonnd us in
our saddles ready for the journey to Damas
cus, the most ancient city on the face of the
earth. "We were on the most ancient of all
highways, once the scene of the pursuit by
Abraham of Chedorlaomer, and many cen
turies after of Saul's memorable journey
while nn his bloodthirsty mission to perse
cute and extirpate the early Christians.
v ascended a shoulder of -Mount Her
mon, S.cOO feet above the Mediterranean
Sea, and near the repntedjslte of the scene
of Transfiguration. From this great eleva
tion we enjoyed the command of our best
view of Palestine. The Jordan and the
Dead Sea were plainly visible, while be Tore
us in the distance lay Damascus, shaped
like a spoon, and surrounded bv those beau
tiful olive and orange gloves which give f
color and substance to-the claim that the
garden of Eden occupied that very site. At
oar right Mount Hermon continued to rise
5,000 leet higher than the place on which
we were standing.
A NOVEL KIND OP ICE CREAM.
A large portion of the snow crowning its
snmmit finds its way daily to Damascus,
there to be flavored with lemon and orange
and pineapple and melon, after which it is
served In the daintiest of dishes to the in
mates of innumerable harems. Nowhere in
I all Syria are the inhabitants more intolerant
than in the villages that lie between Mount
Hermon and Damascus, or more devout in
their religious duties. The sight of a
Christian immediately results in all manner
of manifestations of displeasure and con
tempt, and any expression reflecting on Mo
hammedanism is sure to result in an explo
sion of wrath.
As it appeared quite evident that we
could cot reach Damascus traveling at the
customary gait, we wired for a carriage to
come and meet ns at Katana, near which,
the inhabitants insist, is the site of Saul's
marvelous vision and miraculous conversion
to Christianity.
While the setting sun was gilding the
housetops and minarets we rode along the
banks of the Abana, that divides Damascus
its entire length. The first impression one
gets of Damascus is an exceedingly favora
ble one, and the principal approach to it is
perfectly beautiful. Even in December the
luxuriance of the foliage of the gardens
along which we passed to enter the city de
fies description, and the deep glades with
their pretty houses; the roofs of which are
below the level of the well graded road,
which is completely shaded by .majestic
trees planted on either side, present a scene
that- an abler pen than mine may shrink
from describing.
It was already quite dark when we en
iered the city, and within a few minutes
thereafter we found ourselves comfortably
housed in the finest hotel Damascus can
boast of. And no mean hotel it was. In
fact, it was the first hotel since we landed
at Joppa that had a comfortably warmed
dining room. After a sumptuous dinner we
lingered a while at the table and engaged
with the host in a most interesting conver
sat on, in the course of which he vehement
ly expatiated on the intolerance of the
Turks.
DAMASCUS A DIBIT CITT.
Although the largest of the cities of Tur
key in Asia, Damascus is likewise one of
the dirtiest and most fanatical; and vet, in
spile of its filth, it is very attractive" Its
bazaars are wonderful, and contain the most
beautiful fabrics in bewildering profusion.
But shopping is not enjoyable, as in our
American cities. The ladies of our party
were spit upon and frequently treated with
other expressions of marked contempt be
cause they appeared unveiled on'the streets.
Even the Turkish women join the men in
these demonstrations, and a visit to any of
the shops was sure to draw a enrious crowd.
Naturally the "Street called Straight,"
which is said to be the oldest street known,
interested Dr. Talmage greatly and thither
we drove the morning alter our arrival. It
never was a very straight street, but re
cently itjias actually been straightened out.
and now deserves its pame. A large por
tion of it is devoted to the use of shops,
which form part of the bazaars, and is cow
ered in order to make shopping practicable
and comparatively pleasant daring the
rainy season. There, also, we found the
house on the wall, from a window of which
Paul was let down in a basket to escape the
wrath of the unbelieving Jews. The house
of Naaman the leper, on the site of which
there is now a house of lepers, is not far
distant. Opposite the house on the wall is
the tomb of George, the porter who abetted
Paul's escape, as tradition says, at the ex
pense of his life.
No Eastern city can boast of more min
arets than Damascus, and five times daily
the crv resounds lrom each: "God is God
and Mohammed is his prophet," which con
stitutes a call to prayer to all faithful Mos
lems. Near every minaret there are shops
for the sale of camel's meat, of which every
devoted follower of the prophet makes a
meal once each year. The Koran prescribes
the use of camel's meat, because 'Mohammed
when a shepherd frequently subsisted on it.
It is very popular with the poor people on
account of its exceeding cheapness, and it is
said to be as tough as it is cheap.
WHEHE CAIK SLEW ABEL.
"We remained in Damascus three days and
then lett for Beyront, the most Christian
city in Asia, passing on oar way out the
spot where the Moslems claim that Cain
slew Abel, and also the hiil from the dust
of which God is said to have made man,
after consulting Mohammed as to the ad
visability of so doing, a project to which the
prophet certainly must have been quite
agreeable, as present circumstances seem to
indicate.
Probably the swiftest and pleasantest dili
gence service in the world is that from Da
mascus to Beyront. A French company
owns and manages it, and it would be need
less to say that this enterprise is in striking
contrast to any enterprise conducted by the
unspeakable Turk. The road between the
two cities is in excellent condition and is a
marvelous bit of engineering, crossing the
mountains of Lebanon at a height of 7,000
feet. Six horses are harnessed to each con
veyance, and these are changed every honr.
The trip is of 14 hours' duration, so that 84
horses are brought into use -before its com
pletion. The gas jets illuminating Beyront were
the first we had seen since leaving Athens.
Ther afforded expectations of its appearance
by daylight, which happily we -found to be
fully justified. Beyrou't is a handsome city
containing about 120,000 inhabitants, a large
percentage of whom are Christians and
civilized According to the highest European
standard. These have gained a sold foot
ing in Beyrout, which accounts for its being
the most attractive city of all Turkey in
Asia. Dr. Talmage was entertained royally
by the American college, and during-our
stay preached in the American church to an
audience so large as to severely tax the ca
pacity of that handsome edifice. The date
of the service was Christmas eve.
ON THE WAT HOME.
On Christmas Day wc started on the jour
ney homewards. After the property had
been inspected and onr baggage thoroughly
overhauled by the revenue officers, who
collected 1 per cent duty on all purchases
m ade in their own country, we entered a
rowboat and were taken over to the Pandora
for a seven days' trip on the blue Mediter
ranean. Our first stop was at the island of
Cyprus, where Larnica, an interesting city
of nearly twenty thousand inhabitants, was
the inducement to disembark. The Greek
church, which claims the tomb of Lazarus
as one of its attractions, was visited first.
Here, it is said, Lazarus was burled after
dying the second time, but the claim rests
solely on unsupported tradition. At Lima
stl, where we did not disembark,
we enjoyed the pleasure of receiv
ing on board a Grecian bride and
groom who, during the balance of the trip,
treated us to Moody and Sankey's hymns
sung in modern Greek. Between Limasol
and Smyrna, the next stopnlng place, lay
Rhodes and Patmos (this is the island on
which Bt. John wrote the Book of Revela
tion) and Samoa. Every moment of the-time
cot necessarily required for refreshment and
sleep was spent on deck, and with Dr. Tal
mage as a commentator, the Islands and hills
of the prospects opening before ns were re
populated as of old and their glorious his
tory re-enacted. The weather was simply
grand and the scenery enchanting. Fre
quentlyaway off among the mountains rain
bows took their start and rose in graceful
curves along the sky, further ornamenting
and beautifying what nature had already
rendered bewilderingly glorious.
A SPECIAL IBAIN TOEPHESOS.
We reached Smyrna about 9 in the morn
ing jut too late to catch the train to
Ephesns. But such a trifle as this did not
at all discourage us from making good our
intentions of visiting a city of such great
importance in Scripture. We chartered a
special train and telegraphed in advance for
horses and lunch. At 9:30 our train
started, rushing along with all the noise
and confusion of a lightning express and
the speed of an ordinary American freight
train. We arrived at Ephesus, a distance
of 48 miles, at 120.
A visit to Ephesus pays. The old Boman
aoueduct. with its innumerable stork nests.
is the first object of antiquity that one sees
in the city. Alter that there is no end oi at
tractions. Even the very hedges teem with
broken statuary and choice specimens of
sculpture, which are used as common stones.
The gigantic ruins of the Temple of Diana
are imposing in the magnificence of their
proportions, and their magnitude we found
to exceed all that we had seen elsewhere. In
comparison with them the Parthenon of
Athens is as a village to a city. Two hun
dred and twenty years were spent in build
ing the structure, and no known edifice has
ever equaled it in dimensions or grandeur.
Beautiful specimens of the sculptor's art
abound in the ruins. The ruins of the
theater, which was once the scene of the
great uproar recorded in Acts xlx, enable
one to form a pretty definite idea of what the
building must have been at the time when
it had a capacity lor over 60,000 visitors: and
the stadium, or race course, afforded ac
commodations for no less than 75,000 specta
tors. It still exhibits the terraces which
were cut in the rock for the convenience of
its frequenters. But I must not linger
longer amid tne ruius.
XHE SCENES OF SMTBNA.
After an excellent lnncb, of which various
delioinus preparations of rice formed the
principal part, we again boarded the train
and returned to Smyrna, where the glad
news awaited us that the Pandora would not
resume her trip until midnight This
afforded us the welcome opportunity of
viewing the city. We lonnd Smyrna a de
lightfully clean and attractive place. Dr.
Talmage visited an every day mission,
where he charmed the auditors with his
matchless eloquence.
The next morning fonnd ns at Mytilene,
where the American Consul received us
cordially and insisted on showing ns around.
He presented us to Constantino Valiadis,
the Greek Archbishop, and ft Fahri Bey,
the Turkish Governor. The former of those
dignitaries conversed with us in German
and insisted on our partaking of Turkish
Delight, the most popular because the most
delicious ,of sweets, recommending it as a
sure cure-for dyspepsia, with which he had
heard the American nation particularly was
afflicted. The Governor, who was fairly
covered with diamonds and other precious
stones, spoke perfect English. He invited
ns to inspect the Turkish fortress at Myti
lene. Belore we lett he sent one of "his
servants out into his garden to pick the
choicest oranges, which included, as a mat
terof course, the delicious mandarin variety,
for our refreshment.
At all these places we had recently visited,
Paul had stopped. In Ephesus for three
years he "ceased not to warn everyone night
and day with tears." From Mytilene he
sailed to Samos, and thus pursued his
journey to the end. How fall of interest
these places were to Dr. Talmage only he

BIS CLOTHES HAD SHRUM.
Tho
Circumstance Wn Annoying, bat
Sinned a Man to Wealth.
Xew York Times. 1
A groap of well-dressed and prosperous
looking business men sat about a table in a
famous downtown restaurant after luncheon
a lew days ago, chatting on all sorts of
topics and patching the smoke rings from
their cigars float up to the frescoed celling.
The conversation drifted after a time.into
tales of 'business success, and the eldest and
most imposing member of the party did his
part by telling this story:
"I owe my present prosperity," he began,
"to the fact that when I was a lanky youth
ot 17 my clothes did not fit me. To be more
explicit, I was at that age in dreadfully
hard luck. My people were dead, I hadn't
a friend that I could turn to, I was able to
make bnt fG a week, and was half starved in
consequence, and my one suit (a Cheap
John rig) had" shrunk until the lower edge
of my vest and the band of my trousers Were
absolutely divorced.
"One Sunday morning in December I
was trudging along Sixth avenue, princi
pally because my room was even more com
fortless than the streets, and I remember
how I was railing and repining at every
thing and everybody. I was passionately
fondof music, and I went into the first
church I came to, attracted solely, I must
confess, by the thought ot the warmth and
harmony 1 would find.
"I was too bashful then to sit still, while
the rest of the congregation stood, so I got
up every time they did, and as'my vest and
trousers were, as I told you before, not on
speaking terms, I was forced to lean for
ward in a most reverential manner to hide
my zone of shirt front. As I turned to go
out at the close of the service an old gentle
man behind me slipped -a card into my
hand and said: 'I liketd see reverence in a
young man. You look as if you were hav
ing a hard time of it. Come'and see me to
morrow, I may help you.'
"I went and got a good berth in his em
ploy, and from that I worked myself to
comparative wealth. 'Queer, isn't it?"
World-Strangeness.
Strange the world about me lies,
Never yet familiar grown
Still disturbs me with surprise.
Haunts me like a face halt known.
In this house with starry dome.
Floored with gemlike plains and seas,
Shall 1 never feel at home;
Never wholly be at ease?
On from room to room I stray.
Yet my host can ne'er espy.
And I know not to this day
Whether guest or captive L
So, between the starry dome
And the floor of plains and seas,
I have never felt at home,
Never wholly been at ease.

DIVIDING P0ETEY AND MDSIC.
A. Poem Describing- Bow the First Irish
Kings Shared the Arts.
There is a fragment of the Psaliair of
Cashel, an old, old Gaelic poem, which tells
how the first two kings of Ireland divided
the arts of poetry and musio between tbem,
one winning poetry for his people in the
North, the other music for his Southern
subjects. Thus runs the poem, roughly
translated:
Tho two sons of Spain of bright renown, con
quered Erin ana Alba.
Along with them hither came a comoly poet
and a harper.
Cir, son of Sis, was the yellow-haired poet, the
harper's name was Cuidflnd.
These kings of many battles, they made a
merry contention.
And gaily they cast lots for the two great
craftsmen,
Until to Heber, King of the South, fell the
tuneful, accomplished minstrel,
Sweetness of string went with him, the making
of love or of valor.
In the South of Erin aro found these things,
with the proud race of Heber,
And so it shall be forever.
There fell to Heremon, King of the Northland,
tho poet, the writer oi legends, .
With all his noble gifts; and it is ever the
boast of the Northern
That with his raco has ever remained fame in
song and grace in story.
And for ever the North is the land of the poet.
No doubt the above verses were sung to
his harp by soma courtier-bard, who desired
to propitiate both North aud South, by as
signing to each some envied attribute.
BIG BALL ROOMS IN LONDON.
Homes That Will Afford an Evening's
Pleasure to 1,000 People.
In London, Ward McAllister says and
those who have been at great entertainments
in the city on the Thames know it is so
there are houses that will accommodate
from 800 to 1,000 people. It is no unusual
thing to send out 2,500 to 4,000 invitations
to a great bdll in Hie "West End, and the
city is so large and the entertainments are
so varied, that not only one ball, but a dozen
are aot to be in progress the same night,
and the same set of people, or a majority of
them, will be invited by all the hostesses.
And again', unlike New York, instead of
going to one dance and remaining the entire
evening, or sbmetimes until very late in the
morning, the guests go early and make 'the
circuit of all the houses. Thus it comes
about that there are rarely over 700 people
in one house at a time.
Couldn't Stand Sitting.
Wyoming Magazine.
Judge "Woodward was approached by a
Freeland attorney who desired to have an
aged townsman of his exensed from jury
duty. The Judge demanded the reason and
the attorney promptly answered: "If your
Honor pleases, he is an aged man and can't
stand sitting."
Judge Woodward quickly saw the point,
and admitted that it was well taken.

A rather pompous minister once met P.
T. Barnum, the circus manager, and said. to
him. "Mr. Barnum, you and I have met
before on the temperance platform, and I
hopevwe shall meet in heaven."
"We shall," replied Barnum confidently,

Tardy Wit.
A bright little man sat bemoaning tbs fate
Of the wit that is tardy and sparkles too latei

Oh! tho ideas, apposite, bright, and sublime.
That travel like stage-coaches never on time.
So sluggish in movement, so slow in the race
That a new toplo lenders them quite out of

So the bright little man, with a serious loojr.

THOSE MDMHIFIED OATS.
the Experiment of lining Them as a Snbitl-
tme far Gnauo.
London Saturday Review. I
An eminent person of science has de
scribed the thriftiness of nature; how she
stored her vegetable produce for millions of
years, put it oat to interest in the shape of
coal, and finally made manufactures possi
ble, with all the happiness which they bring
to miserable mortals. "Keep a thing, its
use will come," and even cats, the
least utilitarian of creatures, come
in useful if "they are only kept
long enough. Just as nature had thrift is
her mind when she stored coal at an age
when nobody wanted it, so the ancient
Egyptians had an eye on onr necessities
when they mummified all their cats. The
Egyptians mummified mice, bulls, alliga
tors and animals in general, partly because
they were as a rale gods, partly to supply,
we presume, the fauna of Amenti, thehonie
of the dead.
Not Ions ago a modern fellah fell into an
ancient cats' cemetery by accident, and
found himself among the rather ghastly fe
line mummies of 2,000 years ago. Then
awoke the modern spirit, chartered two
steamers, and carried 20 tons oi tail-waggers
off to Liverpool, These cats had been divine,
all of them children of Pasht. "When they
died the neighbors cried, the fam
ily shaved itself and went into mourn
ing. At a fire the main object of
everybody was not to put the fire out, bat to
keen the cats ont of it. "The- cats lie cov
ertly in wait," says the old translator of
Herodotus, -''and sodenly coursing toward
the place, mount and skip quite over the
beads of the people into the fire, at which
chaunce, whenever it comes to pass, the
Egyptians are extremely sorrowful. A cat
dying is solemnly caryed to the temple,
where, being powdered with salte. she is
after buried in the city of Bubastis."
If an ancient Egyptian met a friend with
no eyebrows, he knew that a cat was dead
in the house and behaved .with sympathetic
solemnity. And now all these hundreds of
thousands ot cats, which had been waiting
hopefully till Osiris came again, are to be
made useful. Every one of them wan sep
arately and neatly laid out in. his tight little
shroud 2,000 years ago. To-day they are
manure, and the divine bodies,
scattered over the British fields,
may effect a' saving in guano.
They fetch 3 13s 9d a ton, and there go to
the ton about 9,000 of these minor divinities.
Why should not Apis and the dog Anubis
be treated in the same manner, and there is
no money to be made oat of the mummified
chifdren of Sebak, the father of crocodiles?
Verily this is the last poor plunder of a
ruined land.
' Each dead cat is worth, at present quota
tions, a little less than a halfpenny. The
sacrilege seems hardly worth the trouble,
and we have yet to see how Pasht, the fierce
cat goddess of Bubastis, will accept the in
sult. To speculators we might say, "Let
sleeping cats lie, bnt probably even the
sleeping dogs will be shipped off in the
same manner if the experiment with the
pass of ancient Khem is successlul. There
may still be a slight prejudice against using
hitman mammies in the same fashion, or,
again, Cheops and Chephren may make fat
the fields of Eurone.
THE DEFENSE OP JUDAS.
Storr's Poem in Connection With
the
Thirty Pieces of Sliver.
St. Louis U lobe-Democrat.
Every man who is a general reader has,
doubtless, noticed how often, when he has
been reading" o( a certain subject, he will
run across the same subject iu an unex
pected place, and an incident of this kind
brought to my attention a very curious
fact, which was a revelation to me.
I bad just finished W. W. Story's poem,
"The Letter of a Boman Lawyer in Jeru
salem," in which Story presents the legal
aspect of the case of Judas Iscariot, and
suggested that in betraying the Savior he
was only attempting to give Jesus Christ an
opportunity to declare and prove himself
God, and that he only accepted the 30 pieces
of silver to give his act the appearance of a
betrayal for a bribe.
I laid aside the pamphlet containing the
poem and picked up a book, in which I
found an article on the ancient coins of the
East, and one of the first things I read was
that, the "piece" of silver of 2,000 years
ago was the name of a coin and that its
value was 13 cents. It did not require much
calculation then forme to see that the price
which was paid Judas by the Sanhedrim for
betraying Christ was only 3 HO.
Do you know this unexpected information
mads Story's poem have a strange effect upon
me. Story points to the fact that Judas car
ried the public purse, and could not have
been avaricious, or else he would not have
been trusted with this fund for the poor, for
which he rendered no accoudt to any one,
yet he betrayed his master for $3 90. I had
always thought that "30 pieces of silver"
meant some large amount, and the statement
astonished me when I read it, but referring
to a work on numismatics I saw that the
"piece of silver"of Jerusalem was about the
same value as the "ore piece" of Denmark,
which is just 13 cents, so I suppose the
statement is true.
The Dobs Fnlly Informed.
from the Philadelphia Kecord:
Mr. James A. Bradley, of Asbury Park,
has been putting up drinking fountains for
men and horses, and beneath them are little
foot-high wafer troughs. Over one of
these little water troughs Mr. Bradley has
thoughtfully caused to be painted a small
sign, so that no dog who has eyes nerd go
thirstv. The sign reads: "For dogs."
