THE CUKATK and Miss Ed
mlaton were walking down
the main street of. the, vil
lage, engaged In conversa
tion, which, being that of a
recently affianced pair, need
not here be repeated.
Miss Kdmliton carried her
self with nn air of pretty dignity,
made none the less apparent by the
fact that Bhe was fully two Inches
taller than her lover, Rev. John St.
John. He was a thin, wiry little man,
dark haired and pale eomplcxloned,
and was much troubled In his dally
work with a certain unconquerable
nhynesB. That he should have won
the heart of handsome Nancy Kdmls
ton was a matter for surprise and dis
cussion among the residents of Brox
bourne. "Such a very uninteresting young
man." said the maiden ladles over
their afternoon tea.
"So ridiculously retlilng! How did
he ever come to propose7" remarked
the mothers whose daughters assisted
in giving women an overwhelming and
not altogether united majority In Brox
bourne Boclety.
The men, on the other hand, voted
St. John a. good sort, and his parishion
ers, In their rough way, owned to his
many qualities.
"You're a dear little girl, Nancy,"
the curtate was stammering, looking
up at his beloved, when they were both
stopped short on the narrow pavement.
A burly workman was engaged In chas
tising a small boy with a weapon In
the shape of a stout leather belt. The
child screamed, and the father, pre
sumably, cursed.
"Stop!" cried the curate.
The angry man merely scowled and
raised the strap for another blow. St.
John laid a detaining hand on the fel
fellow's arm, the temerity of which
caused the latter such surprise that
he loosened his grip for the moment,
and the youngster fled, howling, up
the alley.
1 "What the ," spluttered the bully,
dancing round the curate, who seemed
to shrink nearer his sweetheart.
"Let us go, dear," ho said. He had
Etc. vn white and was trembling.
At this juncture two of the work
man's cronies appeared at the door of
the ale house opposite, crossed the
road, and with rough hands and sooth
ing curses conducted their furious
friend from the scene.
"Horrible!" sighed the curate, as the
lovers continued their walk.
Miss Edmlston's head was held a
trllle higher.
"If I were a man," she said, "I would
have thrashed him I would, Indeed!"
"You" think r Bhould have punished
him, then'" said the curate mildly;
"he was a much larger man than I,
ou know."
Nancy was silent, fhe waB, vaguely
but sorely disappointed In her lover.
He was not exactly the hero she had
dreamed of. How white and shaky he
hud turned!
"You surely did not expect me to
take part In a street tow, Nancy," ho
said presently, somehow suspecting her
thoughts. He knew her romantlo
ideas.
But she- made no reply.
"So ,.ou think I acted in u cowardly
fashion'" ho questioned, after a chill
pause.
"I don't think your cloth Is uny ex
cuse, anyhow," she blurted out sud
denly and cruelly; tho next Instant
Bhe was filled with shame and regret.
Before she could speak again, how
ever, the curate had lifted his hat and
waa crossing the street. An icy "good
bye" was all he had vouchsafed her.
Mr. St. John was returning from
paying & visit of condolence some dis
tance out of the village, and he had
taken the short cut across the moor.
It was a clear, summer afternoon, a
week since his parting with Nancy.
A parting In earnest it had been, for
the days had gone by without meeting
or communication between them. The
curate was a sad young man, though
the anger In his heart still burned
fiercely. To have been called a coward
by the woman he loved was a thing
not likely to be forgotten. His recent
visit, too, had been particularly trying.
In his soul he felt that his words of
comfort had been unreal; that, for ell
he had stilvtn, ho hod failed In his
mission to the bereaved mother. So
he trudged across the moor with slow
step and bent head, giving no heed to
the summer beauties around him.
Ho wns about half way homo when
his sombre meditations were suddenly

heather, whero he had beon lying, and
stood In the path, barring the curate's
progress. .
"Now, Mr. Parson," he 'said, with
menace in his thick voice and bloated
face.
"Good afternoon, my man," returned
St. John, recognizing the brute ot n,
week ngo, and turning as red ns iv
turkey-cock.
"I'll 'good-afternoon ye, Mr. 1'arsonl
No! You don't paso till I'm done wl'
ye," cried the man, who had been
drinking heavily, though he was too
seasoned to show any unsteadiness In
gait.
The curate drew back.
"What do you want?" he asked.
He was painfully white now.
"What do I want?" repeated the
bully, following up the question with
a volley of oaths that made the Uttlo
man shudder. "I'll tell.ye what I want,
I want yer apology" he fumbled with
the word "apology fer lnterferln'
'tween a father an' his kid. But I
licked him morc'n ever fer yer blasted
lnterferln.' "
"You Infernal coward!" exclaimed
St. John.
His opponent gasped.
"lt me pass," said the curate.
"No, ye don't," cried the other, re
covering from his astonishment ut
hearing a strong word from a parson.
St. John gazed hurriedly about hln.
TIir path wound across the moor,
through the green and purple of tho
heather, cutting a low helgo here and
ttrere, and losing itself at last In the
heath-haze. They were alone.
The bully grinned.
"I've got ye now."
"lou have, Indeed." said St. John
peeling of his black coat and throwing
it on the heather. His soft hat fol
lowed. Then he slipped the links from
his cuffs and rolled up hts shirtsleeves,
while his enemy gasped at the pro
ceedings. "Now I'm ready," said the curate
gcntlv.
"Are ye goin' to fight?" burst out
the other, looking at him as aolUfi
might have looked at David. "Come
on, ye "
But the foul word never passed his
lips, being stopped by a carefully plant
ed blow from a small but singularly
hard. fist.
The little curate was filled with a
wild, unholy joy. He had not felt like
this since his college days. He thanked
providence for his friends, tho Indlur.

him In trim these last three years.
The blood sang In his veins as he cir
cled round Goliath, guarding th
giant's brutal smashes, and getting in
a stroke when occasion offered.
It was not long ere the big man
found himself hopelessly outmatched;
his wind was gone, his jaw was swol
len and one eyo was useless. He mada
a final effort and slung out a terrible
blow at David. Partly parried, It
caught him on tho shoulder, felling
him to the earth. Now surely the vic
tory was with the Philistine. But no.
The fall man recoiled to his feet llkc
a young sapling, and the next that
Goliath knew was, ton minutes later,
when he opened his available eye and
found that his enemy was bendi.it;
over him, wiping the stains from Ills
face with a line linen handkerchief.
"Feel better?" said the curate.
"Well. I'm"
"Hush, man; It's not worth swear
ing about," Interposed his nurse. "Now
get up." '
He held out his hand and assisted
the wreck to his feet.
"You'd better call at the chemist's
and get patched up. Here's the
money."
The vanquished one took the silver
and gazed stupidly at the giver, who
was making his toilet.
"Please go away, and don't thrash
your boy any more," said St. John per
suasively. Goliath made a few steps, then re
traced them, holding out his grlmp
paw.

"Don't say another word. Good
l.ve," and tho curate shook hands with

The big man turned away. Present
ly he halted once more. "I'm !" he
said. It had to come. Then he sham
bled homeward.
St. John adjusted his collar, gave his
shoulder a rub and donned his coat
and hat. As he started toward the
village a girl came swiftly to meet
him.

A PARADISE FOR WOMEN.
In Burmah They Are Practically the
Superior of the Men.
Prom the Ladles' Itoalm.
The. Uurraeso are different from other
eastern women. Burmah Is a wo
man's paradise. There Is no necessity
to have 'Women's Hlghts associations.
A woman Is tho equal of man. Thero
nre no harems, and no Testrlctlons to
love-maklnrf, except flirtation and kiss
ing, which nre Indecorous. All the
business of Burmah Is done by the
women, while the men stay lit home to
smoke and mind tho babies". Every
Woman has a shop of some sort, and
when her husband Is not kind she gets
a divorce. She Is probably better off
than she was berore. Indeed, tho Bur
mese woman has fur the best of It.
Yet when she goes to the pagoda It is
always her wish that In her next
existence she will be a man. The Bur
mese woman Is petite, and, though at
first her features seem strange and are
not attractive, you soon get used to
them. Every girl is an artist, and she
dresses artistically and In bright sun
shiny colors. She wears a square,
loose-fitting, overlapping white jacket,
short In sleeves. Her frock Is a piece
of red or yellow or green silk tied
tightly, bo that she walks with short,
mincing steps. The mold of the figure
Is distinctly shown, but, as every, girl
walks with a curious twist of the heel,
there Is nothing Immodest.
In Burmah, as in other lands, the
pride of a girl Is her hair, and if It
reaches to the ground she has reason
to he conceited. She never wears a
bonnet, but there Is always a rose or
some other flower stuck in the folds of
her tresses. She Is fond of Jewelry,
necKlaces, bracelets and rings, but she
Is never guilty ot showlness. As, In
the old days, our grandmothers and
great-grandmothers used to turn a
piece of sliver over In the palm of a
gypsy to hear about some tall, fair
man who would soon return from a
long voyage and make them happy
forever and ever, so the Burmese girl
consults witches about her future hus
band, and wears chaims which she be
lieves will attract a certnln youth.
Every Burmese boy Is tattooed about
the limbs. He knows that no nloi glii
will look at him till he has a mass of
tattoo designs, for among other things,
these signify that he must have under
gone much pnln, and Is therefore a
brave man. Sometimes a girl will
have a tattoo mark placed between
her eyes. This Is not often, but only
when she Is afraid she may lose tho
affections of her beloved. Besides,
with this tattoo mark, every girl feels
that she cannot possibly die an old
maid. But If she hns not the mark,
nnd there Is a prospedt of her being
"on the shelf," she will cut away the
hair above her ears, and this is a pub
llu sign that she would bo Infinitely
obliged If somebody would marry her.
As soon as she can toodle she starts
smoking. She smokes all through life,
and with her last breath will probably
puff smoke. A Burmese cheroot is
very mild In llavor, but it makes
umends In size. It is anything from
six inches to a foot in length, and so
thick that a winsome maiden's mouth
Is stretched to the utmost. A cheroot
Is seldom out of a Burmese girl's
mouth, and she puffs with the unceas
ing regularity of an English girl
munching chocolates. I have seen a
little Burmese boy slide up to a little
girl and look sheepishly at her till she
offeis him a puff at her cheroot, Just
as a London boy will do to his slscer
who owns an apple. For several peo
ple to smok" from the same cheroot is
quite the usual thing, and half a dozen
girls will sit in a circle chatterliig and
passing the torpedo-sized cigar around.
When first I went to Burmah I nat
urajly threw away my cheroot when
I had enough. But afterward I al
ways presented It with a bow to some
non-smoking Burman, for in Burmah
to give some one else your half-smoked
cigar Is as great an honor as In Persia
for your host to pick a tlt-blt of stewy
meat from his dish .and stick It Into
your mouth with his fingers.
There is much juvenile swe'et-heart-Ing
among the youngsters of Burmah.
But a girl must give up such nonsense
when she reaches twelve or thirteen
years of age, for then it s time for
her to be serious and give her thoughts
to possibly being soon married. The
transition stage In England from girl
to young lady Is the adoption of long
skirts and tho "doing up" of the hair.
In Burmah It Is when the ears are
pierced. The ceremony Is marked by
a great feaBt to all her girl friends.
The day and the hour ure fixed by a
soothsayer, and then, In the midst of
the Jubilation, the girl Is seized and
the needles run through the lobe of
the ear, and the more she Bcreamsthe
louder all her friends chatter, and the
native musicians outside get hot In
hanging doubly hard at their Instru
ments. A piece of gold wire ie usually
passed through the ear, but later on
thicker material Is used until there Is
quite a large hole, maybe half an Inch
In diameter, and In this the girl or
young lady, as she Is now wears a
tube, either of gold studded with pre
cious stones, or amber, or, If she Is
very poor, colored glass. After the
ear-boring a Burmese girl begins to
put on airs.
Love-making in Mandalay Is very
much the same as it Is In Bayswater.
A young man and a young woman
by a strange coincidence, are always
meeting at friends' houses, or they
happen to meet at pagoda feasts or at
pwes, or native performances, and peo
ple begin to remark the coincidence
and say things; and when tho maiden
is interrogated on. the point she prob
ably blushes. When It is understood
the couple are to be married tho young
man does love-maklntr In the evening,
but he never sees hU sweetheurt'alone.
Bhe has always three or four girl
friends with her, and so all the nice
things he wants to say must be said
In their presence.
A Cautious Man.

advancing opinions I ever met. I asked

Plypp's rainy day skirt was pretty short

MISSIONARY WORK
IN THE PHILIPPINES
CHRISTIAN EXPANSION FOL
LOWS THE IXAO.
Young Men's Christian Association
Representatives Landed at Manila
with the First-' Instalment of
American Troops and Have Done
Good Work Ever Since Protestant
Missions Fast Springing Up.
Long before tho guns were silent on
tho firing line in the island of Luzon
nil of the principal religious bodies In
America were represented In the Phil
ippines. Christian expansion let no
grass grow on tho road that was lately
made 'by American political expan
sion. There was haste, but to the
credit of the Christianity of today It
needs to be recorded that there was
not unseemly haste. President Schur
mann, of the Philippine commission,
Holy Trinity
wonders whether thero might not be
presented to the Filipinos one and not
many forms of reformed Christianity.
It may not be possible to attain this
Ideal, but among the religious bodies
from America which have begun work
In the Philippines thero comes nearer
to being an amicable understanding
than It was ever possible to brine
about before.
There Is to be held In New York at
the end of the coming April a confer
ence on missions. It Is an ecumenical
one, In that It represents the- whole
Christian world. It Is coming to
gether to see how President Schur
mann's suggestion may bo carried out.
It docs not come solely for that, of
course, but It Is certain to push on
the progress In that direction that It Is
unmistakably making.
It Is not yet quite settled what re
ligious body, ns such, first began ser
vices In Manila barring, of course, tho
ono that hns been thoio for three or
four hundred years. Methodists nnd
Episcopalians began at almost the
same time. Ono was helped by the
fact that Bishop Thoburn, the Meth
odist missionary bishop of India, was
ijenr by and rould reach Manila with
out much delay, and the other by tho
fact that an active chaplain, nn Epis
copalian, took up the service of tho
"Book of Common Prayer," not as a
chaplain but as a member of the Amer
ican Episcopal church.
THE FinST TO CiO.
The very first representatives of
American Protestant churches to
reach tho Philippines were Young
Men's Christian association secretar
ies, who went ftom San Francisco on
tho first transports to curry troops
thither. They took with them tents
and Bibles, literature and singing
books, and they are still there, prose
cuting a euccesBful woik. They havo
been Joined by ten additional men,
and In the lack of chaplains they are
performing service for regiments
which the government ought Itself to
provide. One of the landmarks of
Manila has come to be the association
tent near the bridge of Spain. Crowded
beyond its capacity, the government
loaned a building nearer to the Quartel
del Fortln. Now a property has been
purchased and Is being converted Into
an association building of the usual
pattern. Tho price paid for the prop
erty was 16,000. The association holds
services at Cavlte and upon the men-of-war
anchored there.
Methodists began to hold a service
In tho Filipino theater and Hnother in
the Ermlta district of Manila. Now
they havo organized two churches.
Both aru mainly for Filipinos, and
both have services and sermons In
Spanish. There is a school for girls
and Bishop Thoburn, to whom the caro
of the work has been committed, hopes
to have a school for boys in due time,
besides u mcdlcnl dispensary. Two
missionaries supported by the Mission
ary society of the Methodist church
are on the ground.
PnOTESTANT EPISCOPALMI8SION.
On Decoration Day last the mission
of the Holy Trinity was started In Ma.
nlln, although Episcopal services had
been held In tho city since the begin
ning of that year. Tho Brotherhood
of St. Andrew took the lead In this ef
fort. Holy Trinity mission has now
two clergymen and one layman, nnd
attached to It Is another layman who
has had a tent and done work similar
to that of the Young Men's Christian
association. The mission has a typical
eastern building of the Spanish type,
and Is located In tho midst of barracks.
The lower part Is fitted up as a chapel,
tho upper putt as library and writing
and meeting looms. Many ofllcers and
tho army and navy attend services
here,

Presbyterians have four missions In
Manila and are to establish a fifth.
They helped the Young Men's Chris
tian association by providing preachers
for its tent services. In the middle ot
February authority was sent to or
ganise formally nnd legally ono of the
Presbyterian missions into the First
Presbyterian church of Manila, and
steps were taken to start work In Hollo.
Some native Filipinos have been bap
tised by Presbyterian missionaries,
and among them Is a little child who is
as yet the only Infant Filipino that has
been baptized In the Islands In the
Protestant faith.
Baptists are to undertnko work In
Hollo, but havo not yet done ho. Dis
ciples ot Christ have opened a mission
In Manila, and have started ai school.
Congregatlonnllsts will not go, there,
but are to confine their efforts to Ouam
nnd other Pacific Islands, their purpose
being to line tho route from Honolulu
to Manila with Christian mission sta
tions. A BASIS OF AGREEMENT.
Before this work was Btarted by
these different American religious bo
dies, conferences were held by those In
authority, nnd In tho Philippine work
Mission, Manila.
an honest effort Is making toward real
comity. It Is easy to criticize, but
credit ought to be given for an honest
and progressive Intent. Comity In mis
sion wotk will be discussed at the
.ecumenical conference already referred
to. As everybody In charge of mis
sions will be present to hear, u larger
number than ever before, it will Indeed
be strange If some definite step does
not result. Christians of all bodte3,
their leaders nt any rate, say thoy
want no wastes of mission funds, and
they havo proved their professions by
their works thus far In our new Far
East political territory.
POPULAR IN TEXAS.
Reasons Why Senator Quay Has So
Many Southern FiiendB.
Austin, Tex., Letter In Chicago Record.
A petition signed by twenty-three state
senators nnd a number of repicscntntlves
of tho Texas lcglhlatuic wns forwarded
a few days ago to United States Senators
Clilltou nnd Ciilber.sim. ut Washington,
uiKlng them to voto and woik for the
seutlug ot United States Senator Mutthcw
S. Quay, of Pennsylvania. All tho sign
ers of this petition are Democrats, but
they havo a great admiration nnd kindly
feeling for the cistwhllo Republican boss.
Quay Is popular throughout tho south.
This popularity Is duo to the fact that
he hns on a number of occasions shown
thut ho Is in sympathy with the southern
people. He won tho gratitude of tho
southern Democrats when he opposed the
force bill.
Hut fuw people, oven In Texas, know
tho reasons for Quay's pronounced sym
pathy for tho Boutin rn people. It Is duo
to tho fact that ho lived for several years
In tho south. Matthew S. Quay came to
Texas when u young mini before ho was
out of his teens and located in Mont
gomery county. He taught school thero
two years and afterward conducted a
photograph gallery In tho village of
Montgomery. He removed from Mont
gomery to Columbus, Colorado county,
Tex., where ho taught another term of
school, and then left tho state. Ho wns
not heurd of until muny years afterwurd,
when he had risen to tho height of his
political power in Pennsylvania. An old
citizen of Montgomery remembered the
youth and wrote to Quay In Pennsylva
nia and asked If he wns the man who
formerly taught school In thut place. A
reply was received from Quay stating
that ho was one and tho same person and
making Inquiries about many of his
Texas friends of the early days.
When Quay taught school in Texas the
war had just closed and there was a bit
ter feeling on tho part of some of the
former Confederates and their sympathiz
ers toward all Yankees, as every man
hallnlg from north of tho Mason and
Dixon line was called. Quay, however,
soon ingratiated himself Into the hearts
of tho white peoplo of Montgomery and
Colorado counties. Thoso counties nro
In tho heart of tho "black belt" of the
state. Tho negroes outnumber the whites
ten to ono and young Quay had a prac
tical experience with the rncd question,
which, no doubt, formed tho basis for his
opposition to tho force bill when it ranie
before congiesa a quarter of a century
Inter. Ho took no part In politics during
his residence in Texas, but was content
tn quietly observe everything of a politi
cal nature and otherwise that wont on
around him. It Is snld that he fell In
lovo with a beautiful Texas girl, tbo
daughter of a wealthy plantor of Coloru
do county, and that ho left the stnto be
cause sho rejected him when nn offer of
marriage was made. This young lady
Is now tho wlfo of an attorney residing ut
Houston, Tex.
Quny has always taken u deep interest
In Texas and Its people. Last year, when
nn overflow of tho Urazos rher devastat
ed hundreds of thousands of acres of cul
tivated lands nnd mndo destltuto tuvontl
thousand people and appeals went out
for contributions to relievo their wants
and suffering, one of the llrst responses
enmo from United States Senator Mat
thew S. Quay. In a personal letter to
(lovernor Joseph D. Bayer ho Inclosed a
draft for r,000, which sum ho nsktd to
bo applied us might bo deemed best for
tho relief of the lctlms of tho overflowed
