o. S . Kendall, Montana, August 25, 1903 \TANGIBLE SORROW.\ As Eipreseed by the Mourners ad time Obsequies of a Departed Volured Brother, Brother Jenkins bad died; there he 153 in a rude pine box before the altar. The church seas crowded with sorrow- ing mourners; the meicsat on the right s ice, and the women on the left; ban - Cana handkerchiefs were in evidence. There was much sniffling and wailing and howling. Brother J-- was the preacher, and sat directly behind the coffin, facing the congregation. He had asked Brother Gardner, the pre- siding elder, to say a few words about the dear departed. Brother Gardner arose, clearing his throat vigorourly and wiping his eyes again and again. He glance‘toward the _ma!, where sat the bereaved wicow Matil- da and a lot • row of fatherless chil- dren. • Clearing his throat again, he began in the most solemn and holy tone, relates the Boston Transcript. \Bredderin' an' belubbed friends of the po'r departed Brudder Jinkins: We is gaddered 'here agin to -day to mourn de obsequies ob die here 'pillar ob de churcive — tritn ware 'lily ob de valley,' a 'flower ob de flock,' an' de shepherd ob Israel; him was de best husband an' fadder dat any 'oman eb- ber had; him was a chile ob de Lord; him was de best man dat ebber trod de streets ob Fernandina, an' we as- sembles to offer our sympathies to - to po'r Sister Matilda, an' dem 13 head of fatherless chillen.\ Ho9 I after howl went up; some of the vi'ters felt impressed with the importance, of the late brother, and sympashLed deeply with the poor sor- rowing widow, and wondered bow the church would ever get along without him. Suddenly Brother Johnson, the preacher, interrupted him as be was about to continue his flowery praise, and, standing on tiptoes /tad scream- ing out with all his might, called in thundering tones: \Brudder Gardner, am yo' throo'? Am yo' throo\ tellin' all dem beauti- ful lies? I want yo' to know dat nig- ger am dade; him's a long way past whar dem beautiful Lies of yourn am gwine to do him any good o hatsomeb- her, and him's a long was past whar my trufe am gwine to hurt him, an' Ise gwine to tell de truf about dat nigger! Him was the dead-beatenest nigger Fernandina ebber seed! Him was drunk hand runnite ebber night to' 40, years. Yo' an' I t Brudder Gard- ner, ain't done nothin` but pull him out ob de cartel:soon, thousands of • times\ (pointing to the dead); \hump yo' know; dat's de trufe. ole man. no `sputin' wid me now; lie down dar quiet. I say; de Lord knows yo' would be drunk die minute if de debbil didn't hub yo', or had any whisky ear you could buy. I want de congregation to stop all dat sniffin\round here ober dat las), triflin', drunken nigger; an' as wa:itin' your goreow ober po'r Sister Matilda an' dem 13 hade ob fad- derless chil:en. I, me, tn3self fink she dine made mighty good riddance of bad rubbish\ (with a loving glance to- ward the Amen corner), \an' I hope the lust young buck she'll spark will he me! An' what'm more. dis here nig- ger cost me money to' die box to bury him in; Ise out of pocket five dollars, an' Ise gwine to be disembursed befo' 1 leab de meetin'i . \Yo'se all sayin' yo'se sorry 'round here; now Ice gwine to gib yo' de chance to show how sorry yo' am, sho' 'nought come along heah ebbery last one of yo 'an' put yo' money down in tangible sorrow an' show how sorry yo' is; walk 'long up libely now an' put yo: money down. \Sister Polly Ann. yo's workin' to' 115 a month; yo' handkerchief done say 'yo's . 'sorry a lot; what yo' pocketbook tittle about it? How sorry is yo', Sister Polly?\ Sister Polly tucked away her hand- lierenief and smiling up the aisle, plain- tively said: \Ise sorry to' bits,\ and laid down 50 cents upon the coffin. The preacher kept on with the col- lection. \How sorry is yo', Brudder Gardner? come 'long uw here an' lay down yo' money! How sorry is tie mudder oh de church?\ The mother of the church walked up and was sorry \six bits,\ and laid down her money. \How sorry is yo', Sister Ann?\ Sister Ansi grieved to the extent of \two hits.'\ and so on through the con- gregation, the women hurried up the aisle, proud of a chance to show off their new frocks, and pot down their money in \tangible sorfow,\ until an old auntie hobbled up on her cane un- til she reeched the coffin, then wheel- ing about and facing the congregation, she exelaimed: 'I nebber hear de trufe told befo' at any nigger funeral, an' Ise Koine to tell de Inuit. Brother Jinkins was the meanest nigger de Lord ebber made, an' I ain't sorry one picayune!\ and here she give the edge of the coffin a thundering' rap with her cane, \to' yo' shore stole ebbery hog I ebber had in Fernandina.\ And thus Brother Johnson called out an honest expression of \tangible sor- row\ to the amount of $10.75; $5 he put instantly into his pocket, the rest he turned over to the widow: and in les); than two weeks he was the proud possessor of the remainder of the funeral money, for he bravely married the widow and 13 \head\ of father- less children. Our Cities a Century Auto. At the beginning of the nineteenth century there were 16 cities in the country which had a population of more than 4.000. Philadelphia was first in the list with 69,000, with Nen , York a close second, while Baltimore had Aitken third place from Boston by 26,000 to 25,000. At the seine period the popu- lation of the countr,y was 5,308,483, of which only 5 per cent. yvas urban.— Indianapolis News. : FEMININE WEARERS. Various/iv Adiesets et Dress Virialleit Lead Tose to the Coat u mee of the Season. An extreme effect in millinery gar- niture is the use of radishes of velvet. as well as fruits, berries and flowers of the. same material, reports the Brooklyn Eagle: Beau,itul buttons and buckle#. adorn tr.e soft ceintureei which, to a considerable extent are eupersedin s t the stiff waistImind. - • • Flat bu:tons about the size esf nickel are much in evidence for trim- ming ourposes. They are of ordinary peal i and the smoked variety, and of slikand velvet, plain or embroi- dered in pompadour deeign. Triple or double shoulder capes ap- pear on the largest gowns for indoor wear. Narrow cords and tassels, some- times in a darker tone than the gown, again presenting an artistic contrast, or in gold or silver thread are the decorations most frequently seen on autumn costumes. Ribbons that shade from a bright green to desp blue make up admtra- bly into rosette's that may be usesl for the ornamentation of dark-tone.1 gowns or bats. Flat rotset.es resembling a coach- man's cockade trim some of the new- est turbans. In the center of these: rosettes is placed a fancy paste but- ton or other ornament. Gimp ornaments and trimmings are. much used in combination with as- trachan and other furs. Toques and large hats of royal blue velvet are trimmed with baby lamb and Persian lamb, while ermine tails and bands decorate hats of black velvet, moire and white lace. Swiss embroidery in self color rep- resents the newest trimming for silk underskirts. Nasturtium tints, the , glowing orange, red and yellow tones, are designated that are so conspiction• in modish millinery and dress ure. • A novelty for the ping-pong girl is a chatelaine watch in the form of a ping -pang racquet of sterling silver. Curd cases of canvas embroidered with silk floss in colors harmonizing with the gown are said to be vers popular in England. The pr:': tie, t de, igns In neckwvir are all adorned with French knots. Gowns of chenille draped over black chiffon and tine black lace are among the original models of the season. As accompaniments are wraps composed entirely of chenille fringe. In the newest of embroidered hose the flowers are not distributed care- lessly over the surface, but form some particular design such as bow- knot, heart or monogram, placed over the instep. The widespread impression that most of the \roast beef of old Eng- land\ is supplied from the shambles of Chicago, may find ,a rude shock in fresh English statistics, which show that seven -tenths , of the beef con- sumed in England is produced on its farms.—Indianapolis News.
