[Smart W Picking From the New York Sun. “In the way of a rk by Lieut. Cantwell in Up One of the Corwin’s Satiors rescue at sea,” said Capt. C. A.

Charles Johnson, an athletic j Young seaman, stood on the lee quarter rail, loosing points. The ship gave a sud- den lurch, and the hoom yanked vic ly, Knocking him from his footing. He caught wildly st the swaying spar, missed it, dis- eared like a shadow from the sight of his shipmates, and the next moment was struggling in the white, seething wake of the steamer. The cry, ever so appalliag at sea, went up srboard! Stop her!” “Lieut. Rhodes sprang to the bell pull and rang the rapid four-bell signal ‘Stop and back the ship,” shouting as he did so: ‘Clear away the starboard surfboat! ‘A quartermaster standing by the wheel pulled the lanyard that detached from the vessel's stern a life preserver, which drep- ped into. the sea; then seizing a cork jacket he ran and flung it toward the man, whose white -washed face beneath his closely ticd sou’wester was turned piteous- ly toward the ship as he fast receded from sixht amid the plunging waves. When the first call sounded Third Lieut. Cantwell was enjoying the sound slumber of his watch below. Five seconds later he struck the deck, clad as he had leaped from his berth, and at once took charge ef clearing away the boat, directing and a sisting at the same time. A few seconds later First Lieut. Howison appeared, and as first officer assumed command. The steam- er, readily hove to, was now rising and falling nearly stationary upon the waves. At intervals glimpses were caught of the man still afloat an eighth of a mile astern. “It was here that the fine discipline of the service showed to best advantage. In the high sea Johnson was wholly out of sight of the men in the boat. Lieut. How- ison stood on the Corwin's bridge, giving the proper commands for the handling of the ship, but never removing his eyes from the speck that appeared at intervals among the waves ern. The boat, manned with six oars, was now on its way to the man, steered by Lieut. Cantwell, who, in light night clothes, with bare head and feet, and drenched with spray, stood in the toss- ing stern holding the steering oar, with his back to the men, and directing his course wholiy by the motions of Lieut. Howison. From the quarter rail and rigging the re- mainder of the officers and crew watched in breathless suspense every movement of the resevlers. “Two minutes from the time the boat struck the water it was within hail of Johnson, and in another minute was along- side him. He found lying acfoss the cork jacket, thoroughly chilled, but had | managed to strip off his oil clothes, sea boots.and jacket, in readiness for swim- ming, should it be required. He was in- tantly taken into the beat, which was headed by Lieut. Cantwell for the ship and sent through the water as rapidiy as it had come. It was promptly alongside the vessel and successfully hoisted and setur- ed. The man was taken out as the boat came up the side, carried below and strip- ped and rubbed, and was none the worse for his cold sea bath. “Once again on deck, Lieut. Cantwell sud- denly realized that the wind, which lapped his single soaked and dripping garment, was of the chilliest description, and that his present appearance was unconventional, ay the least. Not waiting for cong ons, he dived down the ward aichway to seek the seclusion which a n grants. The engines were started the ship was on her course again with- in fifteen minutes from the time the man fell from the rail.” 6 PUNISHING CHILDREN. How It Should and How It Should Not Be Done. Frem the Journal of Ethi The abuse of punishment is more dan- gerous than the greatest indulgence. At the present day we have outgrown the harsh meihods of the past. Corpcral pun- ishment is almost entirely excluded from our schools. The hurt occasioned by cor- poral punishment is not to the body but to the mind. It is, after all, the mind that is struck. But tnis is not all. In appealing to the mind we treat the child as a rational creature. This fs a claim of the child that we cannot ignore. Corporal punishment is one-sided. Besides, cerporal puntshment, as Herbert Spencer has shown, Is associat- ed with man in the childhood of the world. It is the savage, who has not patience to or explain, who strikes. Corporal an sellom be administered we show excite- signs of weakness. Then the 1 becomes conscious of a power over us. This is a temptation to youth. The danger of corporal punishment, therefore, is that we can seldom admini: ter it without losing our head. On the other hand, we cannot appeal to the rea son without becoming more reasonable. Besides corperal punishment, there are other punishments that are not justifiable. To shut up a child In a dark room is to men boy or wi spur its im: on into wild fancie: Darkness is a bal companion. It will cor tract and terrify the child. Denying chi dren the necessary amount of sleep or food, | exposing them to the inclemency of the | weather, withholding from them for too | tong a time the tokens of affection, treat- ing them as strangers, or as enemies, or | ignoring them altogether—these are meas- ures that do more harm than good. Punishment should be of such a nature that, if necessary, the parents may share it with the children. The child must know that it cannot suffer alone, physically, much less morally. Its suffering brings suffering to others. This is the lesson that will develop the sccial element in the child. In the second place, we must correct the faults of the child by its virtues; that fs to say, the strong qualities of the mind must spur the weak faculties into play. If a child be physically strong, but morally weak, let the parent hold up to view the two sides of its nature, until the physically strong child shall be ashamed of its moral cowardice. —_———-+ee—_— Soctety's Jargon.

THE PRESS CLUB. A Big Entertainment Arranged for the Sth of February. Two y2ars ago the National Capital Press Club gave a big entertainment at Al- baugh’s, which was a record breaker in the matter of performances of this sort. The bare announcement that there will be an- other event of a similar nature will be suf- ficient to bring out another audience of tremendous proportions. The entertainment will be given on Fri- day, February 8, beginning at noon and lasting until 5 or 5:30 o'clock.

McKim on the Church Idea of Temperance. “The Church Idea of Temperance, the theme of the sermon p hed yester- day at the Church of the iphany by the Rey. Dr. McKim. He stated that he had recently attended the ions of the churcn | ‘ance society, and then he gave the } €s of the church idea of temperance which had been formulated by that organ- ization. The first feature mentioned was that temperance is not equivalent with to- al abstinence. The society maintained that temperance is the law of the Gospel, and as such of absolute and universal ob: ation. Total abstinence is a ruie of con- duct, essential in some cases and highly de- sirable in many others, but every man must be left to decide in the exercise of his Christian liberty whether he will adopt this rule or not. ‘The church idea, said the Bible idei. The Bible, net require total abstinence. Kenness as a deadly sin and demands erance. This is also the idea enforced by the example of Jesus Chris “If the church,” he said, “then, is to be ned by the example and teachings cf ivine founder, they Dr. Rev. does he said, It condemns , her repudiate the idea that total abstinence is required of every Christian as such, and that the use of any intoxicant, however moderately, is a sin. It was a very im- to the cause of temperance reform when she planted her temperance society squar and fairly on this basis, and thus broke the yoke of a false opinion. Well has it been said, ‘A falsc theory will destroy any reform which builds upon it;’ and the the- ory that wine is a forbidden fruit and the drinking of it, under all circumstances and in all social conditions a sin, is a false thecry. It contravenes the example of Chri: It is Mohammedan, not Chris- tia He said that no one could plead the ex- ample of Christ for the use of the fiery waters that are in use among us today. He said that there was in the time of Christ no such problem as our liquor problem of today, and he did not believe that Christ would sanction our social drinking cus- toms. He believed that Christ would be found today among the ranks of the total abstainers, although he believed that He Would repudiate the making of total ab- stinence the test of a man’s Christian char- acter. He believed that the general adop- tioa of the rule of total abstinence as a yoluntary restriction would vastly strengtn- en the temp2rance movement. He spoke of the next feature in the church idea, which was an alliance between moder- ate drinkers and total abstainers. He be- lieved that the ultimate influence of this courageous avowal of the right and place of temperate men in this temperance re- form must be very great. At All Souls’ Church last evening Mr. A. R. Spofford occupied the pulpit and deliv- ered an address on the power of eloquence. ae A Child's Vocabulary. From the New York Time: Mr. Oscar Chrismas, whose studies of child development have been productive of much illuminating knowledge on the sub- ject, has lately given some interesting sta- tisties on the growth of a child’s vocabu- lary. His experiments have been upon his own small daughter, ard he has found that at the end of her nineteenth month she could say but two words, “papa” ard “baby.” Two months more added only two words to her list, but three months frcm that time, fe., in her twenty-fifth month, she possessed a speaking command of sixteen words. At the age of thirty months the ratio of increase had tremendously en- larged, 250 words being within her scope. It would be interesting to have a compara- tive study of a small boy’s acquisition of language, to determine how far it is tra- dition and prejudice which prompts the be- lief that the girl talks sooner and faster than the boy. A SOSTLY AFFAIR. John Shriver Must| Take His Cus- todian to Pinner. Correspondent Jotin & Shriver is begin- ning to believe that-it’is real costly after all to be a prisoner of the law. It is some- times a nice thing, when one is dead broke and walking on one’s uppers, to be taken in charge by the law arid sent down to the farm for a month or tyro. It often goes a great ways toward improving one’s credit. But in the celebrated case of the United States agt. John S. Shriver the thing is getting altogether téo éxpensive to be fun- ny. BS it would have been all right if Shriver had been willing to remain in the obscurity of a bail bend.

Precious Stones Have Been Found in Virginia and ewhere. | From the Philadelphia Fimes. One of the leaditg dealers in precious stones who is interested in the present movement to develop the industry of min- ing for American gems, consented to give the following facts out in an interview: mericans, as a rule, are very fond of precious stones and I should say that the are more in this ceuntr pepulation than auywhere he importation of di phires and other ge been a very lucrative bu: years. The value of these stones in the ccuntry today, mestly imported, I should roughly estimate to be not less than $500,- 060,000, We have so long depended upon other countries to supply us with precious ininerals that little attention has been given co the home mines. ‘Then miners here have heen wrapped up in their explorations for gc1d, silver, iron, coal, oil and such products that they have not had time to think of re ceording to the in the world. S, sap- consequenUy ness for many as has other things. But the promise of a future shortening of the ply of all the leading gems has made dealers look around for oth sources. ‘Another thing that attracted our atten- tion was the wonderful supply of rare minerals found in the Appalachian systein of mountains. Not only gold, but genuine sapphires and scores of other stones have been found in those mountains. At the Cerundum Hill over one hundred beautiful sapphires have been discovered accidentally while mining for other products. These stones have sold from $50 to $100 and up- ward. In the same state, in Alexandria county, beautiful specimens of the emerald have been found, both the aqua-marine and yellow beryl. _ ‘There are now several em- erald and hiddenite mines worked in that place, but only on a small scale and chiefly to supply institutions with rough speci- from mens. Nevertheless, ten to twenty thousand dollars’ worth of these stones have been sold from these mines in the past few years. Splendid garnets, and a few diamonds, have also been excavated in these North Carolina mineral fields, and after an exhaustive examination of the ground the conclusion has been reached that, before long, startling disclosures of precious stones will-Le made in the Appa- chian Mountains. We may yet have a Scuth African diamond field right at our door. “Other parts of the south have also heen found to contain precious stones. ‘True beryls and garnets of considerable value ve been located in Virginia, and there are several well-defined districts where small specimens of diamonds have been found in Georgia. The rich iron and coal fields of Ajabama and Tennessee promise revelations in this respect, although iron and coal kings are so intent upon their work in those regions that they would be apt to stumble over diamonds and rubies if they saw a chunk of coal or iron ore ahead of them. “In the west and southwest the mineral fields nre even more extensive. California diamond mines are the largest and so far the richest in this country. Some fine spe- cimens have been brought to us to cut and others are constantly being brought in by prospectors and mine owners to test. Many stories have been circulated about diamond fields and mines in California, and adventurers have gone there expecting hem up gs they did gold forty years ago. Their ‘disappointment spread counter reports and’ ribst people concluded that diamonds in California were fictitious. "The fact is that mining for diamonds must be conducted on seientific principles and with plenty of capital. We do not expect to find diamonds lying around loose wait- ing to be picked up.’ Even in the richest diamond fields of South Africa they have to work hard for the precious stones. More recently, diamonds have been found in Wisconsin. Around, lake Superior, also, the finest specimens of; chlorastrolite, thom- sonite and agates have heen picked up on the beaches. Evidently the action of the water has worn them from the rocks. Colorado is another, well-defined region for precious stone hunting. a0 His Reason for Protesting.
