A Talented Vonraeymaa Who Had One Vault, which Has Been Cored BeeenUy by aa Employer's Novel Plan On His Guard Now Against "Eingerm." This is the story of the taming of the journeyman plumber. The journeyman plumber was the best of 'his kind in town, and was much sought after by boss plumbers. As one of them described his talents, "He can sling more material Into a job in the greatest length of time than any man in the business." Bat the journeyman plumber was, with all his talents, a hard man -to keep employed on account of his irascibility.

His temper was shorter than a rabbit's tail, and he took out his indignation and his headaches and rows with' his wife on his helpers. A helper to a journeyman plumber is a youth who lays out tools, holds pipe, hands the journeyman his solder and his soldering iron, and who carries back and forth the journeyman's bag of tools and his furnace. He is a journeyman in embryo, and the first thing he learns is implicit obedience to his journeyman and not to be too swift Plumbers call him "cub" and "kid." This particular journeyman abused his helpers. When things went wrong he usually caught his helper by the ear and swatted him. The result was that the helpers returned to the shop and told the boss they lacked the talent for plumbing and quit As a result the available helper timber was rapidly be coming exhausted.

The boss plumber did not wish to lose his journeyman, but he was almost at the end of his list of helpers. Consequently he thought After much labor he produced an idea. He went down to a resort kept by a "professor. It was tifoppy bar andl specked mirror on one side and a row of barrels on the other. The walls were covered with boxing gloves and highly colored pictures of men in fighting atti tudes.

As the result of a conference between the boss plumber and the "pro- isor, a stunted youth, very broad across the shoulders, was called up. "I want a boy to learn the plumber's trade," said the boss plumber. "Well you'll have to guess again, said the stunted youth. 'There ain't no money in it Maybe four or five a week, eh? I can knock that out of the punchin bag in here, see?" Me meant that be could earn 5 a week teaching half baked sports to punch tho bag. "Ill give yon $2.50 a day to see how you like the plumber business," said the plumber.

"I'll go you, said the stunted youth. The next morning the stunted youth appeared at the plumber's shop in over alls and a little round cap with a peak. He was told to go out with the journey man plumber. Together they went to a big vacant building to set up an iron pipe. They were sent to the vacant building that there might be no family there to be shocked should anything oc cur.

On the car the stunted youth en deavored to become acquainted with the journeyman, but the journeyman wju sullen and the acquaintance stopped. When the building was reached the journeyman said, "Scatter them, tools. The tools wercS scattered about, so that when one was needed some little time Was consumed In picking it out The pipe was several inches in diameter, and the game was to pile one joint upon another and solder it there, and so to the top of the building. The pipes were heavy and four times as tall as the stunted youth. As.

a result it was diffi cult for him to hold them up straight At last the journeyman, who was on a ladder soldering, looked down and said; "Gol darn yon. If you don't hold that pipe up. straight I'll comedown and bend your facet" At this the stunted youth dropped the pipe and said: "AlTright Come down and bend me face. The- journeyman had never been talked to like this be fore, and he "came down." When it was all over, the journey man went home in a carriage with a man holding his head in his lap. The stunted youth walked back to the shop.

"Say," he said to the boss, ''I'm too strong for the plumbin business. Guess I'll quit" "Why, what's the matter?" asked the boss. "Oh, that guy you sent me out wid started to bend me face. De doc's took him home in a hack. Say, his face is hard, and he rubbed his knuckles.

"All right, said the boss. "If you've got to quit, here's your $2.50, but I think you'd make a great plumber." The next morning the journeyman plumber walked into the shop He was a sight kind of a murderer was that you sent out with me he asked, out of the uncovered corner of his mouth? 41 Say, he beat me scandal ous with a piece of lead pipes" And the boss laughed a loud, scornful laugh, for he knew that the journeyman had been tamed. And, sure enough, there after the journeyman treated his helpers as tenderly as sons, for he never knew when he might run against another "ringer." Kansas City Star. The Pulley Line Man. An occupation that has sprung np with the growth of flats is that of the pulley line man.

The pulley line man goes about with a coil of line over his arm, and he is ready to provide line or to put in order lines already up. 1 Some times lines get jammed in the pulley blocks. He will clear them. Clothes left out over night may, if a high wind should arise, get all twisted up on, the line. The pulley line man will free them.

He has a route and appears regu larly at certain houses on certain days. His coming may be counted upon, and he will do anything that needs to be done about pulley lines. New Tork Sun. Even In Italy. First Fair Neapolitan (hearing her laundry basket on her head) I say, Jeannetta.

CROWNED AT OLYMPIA. Boson Paid to the Victors In the Grecian AthleUe Contests. Immediately after each contest the successful athlete appeared before the judges and received a palm branch, and ma namewaa heralded before the assembled throng. But at the close of all the contests, on the final day of the festival, the much coveted prizes were distributed. Into the altis at early morning streamed the long, joyous procession, headed by the judges, the religious and civil authorities, and the public guests, escorting the now brilliantly clad athletes and victorious horses bedecked with flowers.

The song they sang was a song of victory by Archilochus, which began: 'Hail to thee, powerful Hercules, con queror in the games, and to thee also, Iolaus, both famed for the spear I Te-nella, tenellal AH hail to the victor! A little boy from the priestly had already knife some branches from the olive tree planted by Hercules, and crowns made from these branches had been exposed in the temple of Hera upon a beautiful chryselephantine table made by Colotes. The crowns were then brought to the temple of Zeus, where, before the representa tives of all Greece, the judges, clad in purple, crowned the heads of the victori ous athletes. This Olympic crown, as the supreme reward of Greek is well expressed in the story of Diag- oras. Himself a victor in the games, he returned in his old age to Olympiawith "his two Both bore off a prize, and then rani and caught their father on their shoulders as the crowd of pilgrims pelted them with flowers. "Die, Diag-eras," they cried, "for thou hast noth ing more to Hive fort" With a sigh of joy the old man expired.

The crowning of Olympia did not end the victors' glory. Their statues were made by the most famous sculptors, their portraits painted by the most skillful artists, their deeds glorified in verse. -They were feasted and maintained at public expense, received seats of honor at the theater and were cherished as gods in the hearts of their countrymen. As Pindar has well expressed it, "He that overcometh hath, because of the games, a sweet tranquillity throughout his life forevermore. "The Old Olym pic Games," by Professor Allan Mar-qnand, in Century.

Kins; by Trade. While in Geneva in 1891 Judge T. J. Mackey of South Carolina was selected by the American colony to deliver a Fourth of July oration at a banquet given in honor of the day. It was at tended by all the foreign consuls, and among them was the.

consul general of Austria-Hungary, who furnished for Judge Mackey 's address the following anecdote and vouched for its authenticity; A number of Americans residing in Vienna in the year 1810 united to celebrate Washington's birthday, and invited the Emperor Francis of Austria to honor the occasion by his presence. That genial monarch, a true gentle man, although "every inch a overlooked the disregard of established forms into which his would be hosts had been betrayed by their patriotic eeaL and made this answer, in his own hand writing: "Gentlemen, I thank you for your hospitable invitation and the gratifying terms in which ycu have expressed your desire that I should attend a banquet which you propose to give in celebra tion of General Washington's natal day. 'But you must excuse me from unit ing with you to honor the memory of your illustrious countryman, since I could not do so with sincerity, for Wash ington scorned a crown and did more to bring royalty into contempt than all men who have ever lived, and I am a king by trade.

The fashion' which prevailed some time ago of 'presenting expensive bou quets to one's lady guests at a dinner has entirely gone out inow a lew flowers arranged in a loose bunch are sometimes given, but anything more is considered in bad taste. At a recent dinner given by a prominent society woman vases filled with pink roses were placed here and there around the tall cande labra, which occupied the center of the round table, and two loose, long stem med roses, laid carelessly over one another, were at each lady's place.

Ella O. Shoemaker on the school by a majority of 88. This is the largest vote ever polled by women In Massillon. Mrs. Shoemak er is vice president of the Equal Rights association.

Mrs. Iv B. Foke is presi dent of the association and Miss E. L. Folger recording secretary.

The Women Voted. At an election held in Ames, March 2, the women of tho city polled a heavy vote. In the second ward alone they cast over 60 votes. The vote was on the proposition to bond the city for 5 per cent of its valuation to extend the waterworks system and install an loo- trio light plant. The decision to have public improvements is generally satis A Story of the Death cf Adam and the Crndfixlon of Christ Which Was Recited In the Middle Ages How JBeth Got 'a Glimpse of Paradise.

When Adam was banished from paradise, he lived ia penitence, endeavoring to expiate the past by prayer and toil When he reached a great age and felt death approach, he called Seth to him and said: "Go, my son, to the terrestrial paradise and ask the archangel who keeps the gate to give me a balsam which will save me from death. Ton will easily find the way, because my footprints scorched the soil as I left paradise. Follow my blackened traces and they will conduct you to the gate whence I was expelled. Seth hastened to paradise. The way was barren, vegetation was scanty and of Bomber colors.

Over all lay the black prints of his father's and mother's feet. Presently the walls surrounding paradise appeared. Around them nature revived, the earth was covered with verdure and dappled with flowers. The air vibrated with beautiful music. Seth was dazzled with the beauty which surrounded him, and he walked on forgetful of his mission.

Suddenly there flashed before him a wavering line of fire upright, like a serpent of light continuously quivering. It was the flaming sword in the band of the cherub who guarded the gate. As Seth drew nigh he saw that the angel's wings were expanded so as to block the door. He prostrated himself before the cherub, unable to utter a word. But the heavenly being read in his soul, better than a mortal can read a book, the worcVvhich were there inv pressed, and he said 'The time of pardon is not yet come.

Four thousand years must roll away before the Redeemer shall open the gate to Adam, closed by his disobedience. But as a token of future pardon the wood whereon redemption shall be won shall grow from the tomb of thy father. Behold what he lost by his transgression!" At these words the angel swung open the great portal of gold 'and fire and Seth looked in. He beheld a fountain, clear as crystal, sparkling like silver dust, playing in the midst of the garden, and gushing forth in four living streams. Before this mystic fountain grew a mighty tree, with a trunk of vast bulk and thickly branched, but destitute of bark and foliage.

Around the bole was wreathed a frightful serpent or cater pillar, which had scorched the bark and devoured the leaves. Beneath the tree was a precipice, Seth beheld the roots of the tree in helL There Cain was striving to grasp the roots and clamber up them into paradise, but they laced themselves around the body and limbs of the fratricide as the threads of a spider's web entangle a fly, and the fibers of the tree penetrated the body of Cain as though they were endowed with life. Horror struck at this awful sight Seth raised his eyes to the summit of the tree. There all was changed. The tree had grown till its branches reached heaven.

The boughs were covered with leaves, flowers and fruit. But the fairest fruit was a little babe, a living sun, who seemed to be listening to the songs of seven white doves who circled about his head. A woman, more lovely than the moon, bore the child in her anna. Then the cherub closed the door and said "I give thee now three seeds taken from that tree. When Adam is dead, place these three seeds in thy father's mouth and bury him.

So Seth took the seeds and returned to his father. Adam was glad to hear what his son told him and praised God. On the third day after the return of Seth he died. his son buried him in the skins of beasts which God had given him for a covering, and his sepul- cher was on Golgotha. In course of time three trees grew from the seeds brought from paradise.

Ons was a cedar, another a cypress and the third a pine. They grew with marvelous force, thrusting their branches to right and left It was with one of these boughs that Moses performed his miracles in Egypt, brought water out of the rock and healed those whom the serpents slew in the desert In the time of Solomon this was the noblest of the trees of Lebanon! It surpassed all in the forests of King Hiram as a monarch surpasses those who crouch at his feet Now, when the son of David erected his palace he cut down this tree to convert it into the mam pillar sup porting his roof. But all in vain. The column refused to answer the purpose. It was at one time too long, at another too short Surprised at this resistance, Solomon lowered the walls of his palace to suit the beam, but at once it shot up and pierced the roof, like an arrow driven through.
