the dignified manner. J. M. Hasslewood, treasurer of the Board of Governors of the West Va. Colored officers, registered as protest against the abuse of the legislative lawmaking committee, as it appeared in the Quarterly. In private, Mr. Hasewood said: "There appeared, in your name, of Sunday, last under the caption 'Regulations,' where Fund at Charleston School in articles—a republi in part, of the legal legislative investment in institutions. The article, as well as the articles, is based upon the West Virginia-colored Institute history, in that only a portion of the facts in, stated, the reader being left to draw inferences at variance, perhaps, with the intent of either the Garden or the committee. Trips, then, was appropriated for domestic salves 8000 for each of the years 1801 to 1898 inclusive; 8000 for 1906 and 8000 for 1907; and if it was true, as the books of the treasury and of the institution will show, that not only the amounts stated in the application, as some would infer, but every cost, appropriated was used for all services for the military department, some for supplies, plain sewing, and dressing; the balance for the department of cooking: From goods and material used for instruction there is not justly to be expected a public a financial union, yet there was, returned, from these sources, from 1892 to 1907, inclusive $636.02, paid principally by the student purchaser. Any person with a knowledge of the facts pertaining to the possession of the medical equipment, the absolute necessity of the retention of the resident physician. The nearest physician, the savan miles from the institution. Though every precaution was taken, darkness and serious accidents, have occurred. Twice during the winter of 1907-08 there were accidents at night and the sufferers were deprived of medical attention. Hours till a physician all but limited Charleston over roads all but limited. Since each visit of a physician cost the $5.00 and the state had made no provisions for urgent medical attention, the faculty, with the knowledge and consent of the board of regents, taxed themselves $12.50 and each student $2.00 for medicines and a year's service of a physician. In this way the health of a community of over three hundred persons was safeguarded without the expenditure of a dollar by the state. The apparent lack of returns, in 1908, from the agricultural department is easily explained by the records of the school to which the committee had access. The receipts from all departments that year were credited in whence to the odds and ends fund; as was done once before, all receipts having been itemized in other years. While the sales from the farm of 87 acres have never amortized to a larger gain, the farm has supplied feed for the dairy herd and two leams, and vegetables for the livestock being conducted by the state. The top "practical" farmers have devoted much of their time to hauling the institution's supplies, including prefabricated coal and building and other materials, from the railroad to the buildings—"distance of a third of a mile." As the committee reports, the cash receipt from the various industrial departments of the school amount to $5,299.20; but the sum does not include the savings to the state in the erection and acquisition of buildings and equipment; the student labor; nor do J. Anthony Jones, the president, nor W. A. Watterson, the secretary of the school, receive any from it in addition to their salaries as teachers. As a fact, the president, secretary and treasurer of the board of regents receives $200 per annum, out of this fund, as remuneration for their services as purchasing committee, supervisors of whatsoever buildings are constructed, and for the keeping of the accounts and settlement of the bills of the school. Just why so much is made of the fact that Charles M. Jones, an instructor, is the brother of J. McFennery Jones, the president, or that Mrs. J. McFennery Jones receives a salary as instructor in music does not appear. The first named was employed by the board of regents two years, before either of the alumni was connected in and way with the institution. Mrs. Jones on the registration or her predecessor, who was the wife of the former president, was employed by the board of regents. Commandant lawyer of the college corps who matched the work of the chairman, and an the work of the assistant factory, as lieutenant of the college was established. opting there can be no railroad how extensive it is from Bangladesh on the bank of the branch of the Cape Peninsula that is to tap this region in part of tropical Africa. Every inch gold is carried on the banks of men or in dugouts on the streams to far away Victoria Nyanza, whence it is shipped to the sea the export for August last amounting to $185,000. "Given transportation or this country is not worth a penny" in the cry rising in all parts of Africa, and it is meeting with a wonderful response. There is now a continuous steam transportation by rail and water, from the Nile Delta to Gandakoro, within 300 miles of the equator, and from Capetown to Broken Hill, 1840 miles north crossing the Atlantic at Victoria Falls, now a tourist resort though not a dozen white men took them for nearly fifty years after Lavikonga told of their existence. The Gongo Government is building railroads around every stretch of rapids that impede navigation in the Congo, and a few years it expects to have more transportation on or along the river than 100 miles. The winters of locomotives are heard daily in the capitalis of Deheng, and Ashanti, once motorized the scene of wholesale human hurdles. The railroad from Lange will be across the Niger on its way through southern Nigeria the cotton region of Benin promises in Africa. There are only the larger enterprises now in construction; a scene of orphans and the war. From "Africa in Transformation" by Cyrus C. Adams in the American review of Reviews publication. Dearly soon, the twenty-fourth Infantry (colored) stationed at Sackett Harbor, to-day issued an order forbidding the enlisted men from entering that village without a pass. A reward of $100 has been raised by members of the regiment for the capture of the assailant of Edith Gambley, providing he proves to be a member of the regiment. CARBON. Mrs. P. P. Holland's mother, Mrs. Hettie J. Clark, came last Tuesday from Highmond Dale, O., on a two weeks' visit. The day of prayer ended last Sunday night with one convert and two mourners, Rev. G. W. Potente, or Danville, Va., came last Thursday night to lend a helping hand in the revival and preached, two able serpents last Sunday. Rev. P. P. Holland preached at Raymond City last night by request. Mrs. Nannie Young is able to be out again. Mrs. Robecca Young spent a few hours with her sister daughter last Friday, Mrs. Lizzie Ferry, at Red Warrior, and reports who is better. Mr. P. M. Paulkerson, from Dortha, was calling on friends here last Sunday. Mrs. P. P. Holland is better at this writing. This school, began last Monday with Miss Spears instructor. Educational Solution IT WILL IN TIME SETTLE THE GREAT PROBLEM OF THE RACES. Speech of President-elect Taft at Carnegie Hall, New York, February 28, 1909. We have ten millions of colored people in the United States, and of that ten millions, I suppose nine millions [live] in the Southern states. Now if you read the Congressional Record I remember one distinguished Senator wanted to compete the public to read R-but there is a great deal that is very useful and learned in It—there is a great deal you can sympathize with in It; a great deal of much truth and a great deal of humor. That is, it awakens your humor, and sometimes in sympathy and sometimes at it. Now, if you study the Congressional Record you will see that there are some statesmen that say that it is impossible for the colored and the white races to live together. That the solution is beyond the hope of human effort. Well, the ten millions are here and what are you going to do about it? The proposed propose that we should move them bodily out of the density; they do not say where, they do not say what, they do not say when, but out of the diversity they are to do and while there is an attempt to move them hundred of them out of the state in which it is CHARLESTON, WEST VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 4, 1909. Eagle, W. Vau., March 3.—The executive board of the West Virginia Baptist Sunday school convention held a meeting here Saturday at the Central Baptist church. The following members were present: Secretary J. W. Scott, of Huntington; President A. P. Straughter, of Hinton; G. W. Winston, of Hunton; Mrs. M. S. Reed, of Mount Carhion; Mrs. M. J. Banks, of Macdonald; Mrs. M. J. Banks, of Handles, and W. W. Hall, of Eagle. The meeting was called to order by its President who appointed Rev. J. J. Turner and Rev. E. D. Wallace, to conduct the devotional exercises. In stating the object of the meeting, Mr. Straughter spoke of the death of Rev. J. L. Brooks in touching words, calling the board's attention to the excellent service he rendered to the board as a member and as an enthusiastic Sunday school, worker. His death brought about a vacancy in the board, which was filled by the election of Monroe Peyton of Gauley Hodge, the unexpired term. The missionary work, under the oversight of Rev. J. J. Turner, was received and was found to be in every way satisfactory. The Board discussed and formulated plans for doing more educational and missionary work in the state. It is now asking that the Sunday Schools send up one thousand dollars ($1,000) to the Sunday School convention at Macdonald the last of April. The program, for that session was arranged with great care. Able speakers from all parts of the state and Gom Richmond, Va., and Nanhui will be called upon to deliver additional information and support of missions, were requested by the board to keep the claims of the convention before the Sunday School throughout the state. said their relations to the whites are most inharmonious, you have a riot the minutes you propose to move them, on the part or and by the very men with whom they cannot live. It seems to me that this is the reduction ad absurdum with reference to a suggestion that expatriation is a solution of this question. The solemn, scientific statement of a man that the races cannot live together, even though it appear in the Congressional Record, ought not to occupy our minds for a moment, because they are living together, and they have lived together for over a hundred years. Now, the question is whether we or they, or all of us together, can make this living together better for both races. It is a problem that is set before us, and it does not help us to say that you cannot work it out, because we have got to work it out. A race feeling, a race prejudice, is a fact. And the man who does not recognise it is just exactly illogical as the man who says that ten million people now in the country cannot live with the other seventy millions that are here. when they are living there is a race feeling, and you cannot differentiate it by saying that it ought not be mistaken that it does exist, and that it is a sort of the. the problem. Now, how are you going to wipe it out to the extent of making it so that it shall not pressure injustice and a lack of harmony between the races? Well, I think you are going to work it out. I believe in my heart that you are going to work it out by making it to the advantage or profit of both races to see that it is not to the advantage of either to allow that race feeling to continue between them to the extent of making it difficult for them to live together. Education the Solution. The Negro is absolutely essential to the development of the South. His labor the South needs, and the more you instruct that labor, the more ADVOCATE 2.. Education Sol TWO valuable he becomes to the South. Hence, it is that the work of Hampton Institute has its intense importance. It is the solution of the race question. I do not believe, and I do not think most men believe, in too many crutches for people that are trying to learn to walk, but if you furnish them just enough education to know, how to use their minds and their hands and their legs in productive occupations, and you give them the instrument by which they can help themselves and then if they are a race that has a spirit to help themselves the future is before them and the opportunity is their. Now I do not profess to know as much about the race question as those gentlemen who have spoken before me, but I have given a great deal of attention to the matter. I have studied the statistics of the growth of the term. I have studied the amount of property that the race has accumulated, the reduction in the percentage of illiteracy, amounts of the produce brought forth under the hand of the Negro laborers and the Negro farmers in the South, and I say that no one judged, person can read these statistics without marvellous knowledge of the Negro race has made the progress that it has made fit the last fifty years under the burdens and obstacles that it has had to meet. They show self-initiation; they know self-help. Why a race that produces a Booker Washington in a century outstretched, confident that it can do miracles in time. I have been South recently. Now there were a number of things that were brought home to me with much more emphasis: the account of my visit that they ever had been before: Spirit of initiation. Mr. Taft related a visit to the Shiloh Orphanage to show the spirit of initiation, and the spirit of anxiety to do something for themselves. He told of meeting Robert, Oden and workers in the Hampton institute, and continued; I rejoice to find that that work had the sympathy of the Southern people of education, respect and common sense. It is very difficult to speak in parliamentary language of the advocacy of the doctrine that we ought to keep the Negroes in ignorance. I think the statement relates itself that it does not awaken the sympathy of the intelligent South! One of the difficulties in the South is that it is not the Negroes only that need education, and I mean that literally. The number of ignorant among the whites is enough to call properly for the attention of all cliffens to reduce the illiteracy and increase by industry and other education their abilities to be good citizens in the community. Now, we sometimes get information and aid from sources that we would hardly expect. I think the history of the improvement of the Civil Service of England is that it came by way of Irish, and the history of the improvement in practical education in this country in industrial education, in that it came through Hampton, through General Armstrong, in teaching the colored students and the Indians, and that now we all over the north and the south will know by the lessons that he taught in that period. General Armstrong was a great man, and the generation will rise to call him blessed. He taught the secret that will solve the race question in the South. The truth is that the success of Hampton, of Tuskegee is doing great good for the ignorant Southern white children. Room in South for All. I think it will help the South to have immigration. I believe in competition in labor, as in everything else, and we have found on the lathmus of Panama that our West India Negroes work a great deal better and do a great deal more satisfactory work now that we have introduced Gallapaoeans, Spaniards, Italians and Greeks. And I do not think it would hurt at all. There is room enough in the South for all of them. The resources of the South are only scratched, and if they go there it will help the Negro. It is true that the ancestors of the colored people of today were brought here against their will. They are Americans, and they are entitled to our aid and sympathy. This is the only country and the only home they know. Ours is the only flag they can live under, and it is the flag they have shown themselves willing to die for. One of the Great Problems. Now, the great aid—the men who are able to assist more than we can, even though we contribute our money is he Southern white man and as it is to his profit and as he grows more intelligent to see what the good of the country is, he will certainly see that it is to his advantage the colored man increase in intelligence, in providence and in industry. I don't see why we may not reasonably take courage and believe that the elements are there in the South together, to work out this problem and to uplift this race to a material and to a spiritual plane that will insure its happiness. Now I know, and no man can think of the humiliation and the agony of spirit that the Negroes have to suffer in their struggle upward when they encounter the race feeling and the injustices to which it leads, but it may help them. I hope it will, to give them stronger character, and there is a future before them that if they overcome these obstacles is well worth the effort. Personally, I think it is one of the great problems that we have before us in this country. I believe in the ultimate justice of all the American people. I believe also in their good sense and when a policy involves justice and good sense I think the American people can be trusted to react that policy and to carry it out to its ultimate conclusions. IMPRESSIVE Were the Last Rites Over the Ref fains of the Veteran Preacher. Huntington, Feb. 28. The funeral of the late Rev. Nelson Harnett, whose death was announced in last week's Advocate, was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the First Baptist Church in the presence of an immense concourse of people. Scores of persons were unable to gathen during the service, the column and had to be seated in the room. Impressive and beautiful were the services. On the platform sat several of the leading ministers from Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia. In the audience were people from at least a dozen points in these states. On the right of the ministers lay the body of their former associates resting in a handsome couch casket with a crossed and holding in one's hands a high metal stand dropped a canion, totally drawn back and revealing the open casket. The familiar form of the good man had every appearance of one enjoying a quiet slumber. Arranged about the canister was a perfect bower of flowers. Among these were several coily designs sent by various religious organizations. The family and relatives occupied the first three front pews. A host of sorrowing friends filled the entire space beyond. The scene was one not soon to be forgotten. → While very impressive the services were yet simple quite befitting the simple life of the departed. Select music was rendered by the choir under the direction of the organist E. G. Thiry. One of the hymns was "I am going hone," favorite of the dead burial. Rev. A. Thurston, Pastor of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, read an appropriate Psalm. Rev. O. P. Wright pastor of the Fourth Street Baptist Church at Ironton, O., offered a touching prayer, and J. W. Scott, of the high school, read the obituary. Then Rev. T. V. Browning, pastor and life-long friend of Rev H. Narnett, 3:38 "Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?" delivered what was conceived to be one of the most eloquent of the departed that was traced near him. In the traced the life of the departed up from the slave plantation in Virginia with its extreme hardships after the war, and followed his career as preacher, organizer, citizen, husband and father delaring him to have been a lender of noble parts and a man of great parts. After this splendid eulogy, resolutions of respect were read by Rev. R. D. W. Meadows on behalf of the ministers and deacons union of the MT. Olive Association, by Deacon Ed. Howell on behalf of the Paint Creek Baptist Church of Gallipoli, O., by Deacon Kyle Baskin on behalf of the Ashland, Ky. Baptist Church also by representatives from the Fourth Street, and Tried Stone Baptist churches of Trionon, O. A very pretty incident of the funeral was that of several little girls bearing a tribute of love from the First Baptist Sunday School. → The arrangements were all, carefully planned and carried out with the greatest precision notwithstanding the great crowd within and without the church. The vast assembly told unmistakably by their presence and their sorrowful countenances and subdued silence in what high esteem and affection they held this pioneer preacher. Though that voice which has carried the gospel to thousands of souls is now hushed in the lives of the faithful in the lives of the coming generation. For "To live in hearts we lose 6% behind, is not to die." Hundreds followed the body to Springfield Cemetery where the cermones were concluded and the body left to sleep in the windowless palace of rest till the day of final resurrection. The pall bearers were selected from among the deacons of the two Baptist Churches, the honorary pall bearers bong T. W. Wilkinson, W. O. James, R. A. Woodson, and J. M. Mickens; and the active pall bearers Spencer, J. Lewis, Henry Burks, W. T. Smith, H. J. Dickerson, Peter Bell and Richard Taylor. Rev. Nelson Barnett first saw the life day in Buckingham county, Virginia, and depended on this life Thursday morning February 25, in his sixty seventh year. He was the son of Eliza and Jerryman Barnett and was the next youngest of seventeen children, all of whom except one brother Jackson and one sister Lacy are now deceased. Rev. Barnett spent his early life as a slave on the Virginia plantations, subject to all the evil influences which accompanied that institution. Some of his brothers were sold down South and he never saw them again. A better fate was reserved for him, and he continued to live on the old plantation several years after the war until 1873 when he became Wes as a laborer on the new railroad. He was of a studious tone of mind, and had from the time of his conversion, some years before, shows a decided bent toward the ministry. He was soon ordained and entered fully upon his life's work. Huntington was a small village when he landed here in 1873. He found a bare handful of colored people and fewer Christians. He eats his lot with them and for more than thirty years he stood before the people of Virginia and Southern Ohio as a minister of the gospel. His career has long and his labors so abundantly fruited that may be said truly his life was a living epileptic known and read of all men. Without the training of the seminary he possessed an analytical mind and was a born theologian, gifted in speech and wonderfully enlighten in bringing men to Christ. He held some of the best as well as some of the hardest charges in the Ohio Valley. He was instrumental in building the First Baptist church in this city. The lot for the church was donated by the late C. P. Huntington by whom he was held in high personal esteem. After serving the church here successfully oor several years, he was called to Gallipolis, O., to pastor the Paint Creek Baptist church. He labored there with marked success, having baptised at one time over 100 converts, the greatest revival. It is said, ever held in that church. He added some permanent improvements also to the building in the way of tower and bell. Then he built a church in front of Fort St. Anton, O., to pastor the Triple St. Macaulay church. Here he romained several years and did fuch to revise and strengthen the church. He at length resigned and accepted a call to Gloucester, O. While in this field he was frequently invited to preach in white churches who heard him gladly. Then he went to Macedonia, O., where he built a church. Finally he returned to West Virginia and for the past 8, or 10 years has been pastorating at various points, Eagle, St. Albans, Raymond City, Lonarce and about a year ago was recalled to Gallipolis, Ohio, of which church he was pastor at the time he was struck by a last illness. He has been kept well word in colored homes throughout West Virginia and Southern Ohio. His baptism also convictions, his well balanced judgment made him the "friend, philosopher and guide," of the communities wherein he labored. His ability as a preacher and as a peacemaker gave him prominence and prestige in the council of his denomination. Some years ago when he was up for re-election in a certain church he received the entire vote of the church but three. But such was his lofty standard in these matters that he declined the re-election saying that he could not afford to accept, if. Although advanced in years his popularity as a preacher never waned. Last summer he was invited and preached the introductory sermons as many as three different association meetings in Ohio two in West Virginia. At the time of his death he was president of the Ministers and Doacona Union in this second of the state. Rev. Barnett preached education and thrift as well as religion and set a worthy example before his race by acquiring-property and educating his own children. He was the owner of several pieces of real estate in the city of Huntington. He was especially interested in the young people he met, many of whom will hold his name in sacred memory. After four weeks and he was taken ill, way greaching and reached hose vary, all declined, despite the loving care of his wife and children, who were constantly at his bed side. His children continued at his side after he h a abdened removed to the hospital with the last earthly hope of alding him. Though he suffered greatly at times, yet he never worried and met death just as camly as he had met all the claims of life. Thursday morning at 2 o'clock, turning his head, he then glanced upward, for his voices had left him) his noble soul took its flight to that home to which he had for so many years pointed earth's wanderers. He was happily married when a young man and leaves behind a widow, four children, many relatives and a host of friends to mourn their loss. The children are Prof. Carter H. Barnett, George Barnett, Dr. C. C. Barnett, and Miss Josie Barnett, all of whom were faithful and devoted to their father to the end. Thus passed a worthy father, a loyal Christian, a good citizen and a pioneer preacher who did the right thing gave him to see the right Heaven is richer today for his presence and the Ohio Valley is poorer for his absence. But the deeds and influence of his life is our priceless heritage which time cannot offace, and which eternity will only obeyish. Correspondents are requested to mail their letters to reach the office not later than Thursday morning. Failure to do will prompt imitation till the following Charleston, S. C. March 1—WHERE the resignation of D. F. Williamson Crum as collector of customs of the port, the resignation to take same March 4th, the sationation which threatened to cause President Sheriff considerable embarrassment was not. No appointment made by President Roosevelt has given the lie as much disgrace as that of Chief William who was vigorous in the fact that he was no longer long and hard fight against the formation was made by Senator Eli man and others when Crum was named for the position by President Roosevelt in 1903, and within the last few weeks, following Crum's appointment, Senator Tilman conducted a successful hibiter against his confirmation by the minister Crum says no 'premature' has been taught to bear upon him that caused to resign, but he does so in part because he wishes to save Tillman for whom he has great, respect from any possible, harassment to his re-appointment, and cither because he feels that he especially identified with President Roosevelt's administration and he wishes to retire with his chief In his letter, after the asking the president for appointing him six years ago, and for the re-nominating him recently, for a second term, he says: "Since assuming such position, I have skriven diligently to justify the confidence imposed in me. During all these years so far as I know, not a single charge has been brought against my moral character or a single adverse criticism made in to the performance of 'of my moral duties'. I wish to insist that those employed in this office under me, composed of both men, have been at all times courteous. Kind and interested, and we have all worked together to make the office work more successful and satisfactory." "When I became collector of the port the annual receipts of the offices were scarcely $20,000. I am glad to say that they have shown a flattering increase each year. The total for the first eight months of the present fiscal year were more than $6,000. I do not claim credit for this increase in business, much of it would have been brought about through the natural growth of the port, but note these facts to show I have strived in every way possible to increase the usefulness of the office and the position which I hold. "Before closing, I feel I should add that during all these years, I have been treated with kindness and courtesy by the office that have had official business with the office and I have not had any unpleasant contact with anyone in the city. "In conclusion, permit me to thank you again for the trust imposed and to wish you, as you and your official cares, hearty godspend and a long life." Pittsburgh, Penn, March 2. —Howard Hall, of Pittsburg, a colored boy, won the indoor Marathon race here to-night with ease, being nearly two laps ahead of the second man. The race was for championship of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio; but only one Ohio man and one West Virginia man were entered, the rest of the runners being from Pittsburg and the runners being from Pennsylvania. Half easily maintained the whole course. Summary. Howard H. Hall, Pittsburg, won; R. G. Teckmeyer, Pittsburg, second; Walter A. Gordon, Rochester, Penn; third; Peter G. Kenny, Pittsburg, fourth, W. G. Quigley, Pittsburg, fifth. Time—3:29:54. JEFFRIES IS WILDLING Chicago, "March I.—" I will fight Jack Johnson for the heavyweight championship of the world, if I am able to get into condition to do my self justice," said James J. Jeffries, who stopped off here on his way to New York today. "The story from Omaha that I said I would not fight Johnson as soon as I finished my vaudeville engagement is not true," continued Jeffries. "I have never said definitely I would fight Johnson and am not ready to do so now. My future depends upon my ability to get into the ring and I will be able to do so regardless if I return to the arena have more time to digest before I am ready to plan."

The Powerful Motive That Moved the Commercial Traveler "No, I was be, whistling and singing because good music replied the hardware drummer. What am I because I have a clear conscience for the first time in three years." "Have you, concerned to murder?" was asked. "Gentleman, don't am I to be guilty. This is a sacred thing. I was in Boston three years ago, and I picked up a package on the street. On opening it, found, seventy-five, $1,000 bills. I am in the loot was there, but from the time I got out of town by the bus. My conscience made me that I was as bad as a thief, but I tried to丝 it." A drummer with a conductor meered three of the Histena in chorus. "I want to Chicago with the money, continued the drummer, "and invested it in real estate. I knew it was wrong, but I did it. Six months ago I found myself worth $200,000. Conscience would not down. It got so bad that I couldn't even look a confidence man in the face. At length I started for Boston and hunted up the lover of the wealth. I found him in his office and told my story. When it was finished I told my all before him and asked his forgetfulness. "I and all, you did he do?" "I will all, you that he did, and I shall never forget it. He looked at me and saw how he was suffering, and he took me the hand and said in a fatherly way: "My friend, suffer no more. I was going to a poker's game when I lost that money, and it would have gone anyhow. But what in thunder are you doing on the road if you are worth $200,000?" shouted a voice. "Conscience" again, gentlemen—con- science. It won't let me retire and leave you fellows to do all the lying" —Cincinnati Enquirer. The Earth's Changes The surface of the earth is under- going steady transformation, largely through the agency of man, but per- haps nowhere is the plant and animal life of the region being more rapidly superseded than in New Zealand. The native Polynesian race, crowded by Europeans, is becoming extinct.

In most of the islands of the Pacific hell is not reserved for the wicked in our sense of the word—that is, the thief, the murderer, the slanderer and the selfish man. All these finally reach a state of happiness. But a most unmistakable hell is reserved for those guilty of the only sin known to them, humidity and cowardice. Advocate ads bring the desired results from desirable people. A Tribute to Sauserkraut Those Americans who have visited Munich know well the noble grate at the head of the Hartsoffsladressraute, raised by gratitude Bayana to the memory of St. Herman of Pilsen, investet and protégonist of sauserkraut. The genial old saint, a saint upon his face, is seen stirring a large kettle of grout with an oar of gilt brocade, and so infiltrates the carving that the traxier, wandering by, can well nigh scent the perfumed steam and hear the futter of angelic wings. In these unromantic United States we have no public memorials to Hermann, and his very name indeed is unknown to all save a new cognoscent. But nevertheless and notwithstanding this neglect the delicious virtual he gave to the world is firmly enshrined in the hearts of the American people. Stewed gently in Rhine wine it tickles the esophagal of the opulent; bottled in plain hydrant water, it nourishes the son of toll.

"I am in a quandary," said About. "I -allowed myself yesterday, the pleasure of a joke in had tainted and a duel is to be the result. I know nothing whatever about fencing, and, as you can see, I am fat. Will you give me a lesson, so that I may not make myself too ridiculous?" The lesson was given, but I must prove a very poor pupil. On his way to the photograph of Grisier. "I suppose he said that not ask you for one of the said." When the greatest pleaure, said the fencing master. "And, with a chickle, Grisier wrote across the photograph, "To M. Edmond About, the best pupil I have ever had." A few hours afterward the seconds of About's adversary called on the writer, saw the photograph on the mantelpiece and, fearing for their friend at the hands of so redoubtable a swordman, arranged the affair without any duel. How Henry Irving Wanted to Die. "What have I got out of it?" said Henry, stroking his chin and smiling slightly. "Let me see. Well, a good cigar, a good glass of wine, good friends?" Here he kissed my hand with courtesy. Always he was so courteous-always his actions, like this little one of kissing my hand, were so beautifully timed. They came just immediately upon words and gave them peculiar names. "That's not a bad summing up of it all," I said. "And the end-how would you like that to come?" "How would I like, that to come?" He repeated my question lightly, yet meditatively too. Then he was silent for some thirty seconds before he snapped his fingers—the action again before the words. "Like that!" — Ellen Terry in Ms. Clure's Magazine. Frank Ryals was mounting the steps of his club when an imperious feminine voice stayed his steps. It was Mrs. Raime, and her ordinary gushing manner had entirely disappeared. My dear boy, you don't want to club this afternoon. You really ought to run right up to the house. There's certainly something wrong with Bess. Sissy she's been treating me to a gonquine case of hysterics. Imagine Bess in hysteria. And she won't go to California with us. Or she's altogether unreasonable. I left her in tears. You must have the doctor." "Yes, I'll phone for him at once." Mr. Kyals' voice and manner were calm, perfunctory. He raised his hat and mounted two more steps. Then he paused irresolutely. Mrs. Raine was halfway up the block. A man addressed him lightly and entered the door, and still Ryals stood undecided, a strange light playing in his moody eyes. "She won't go to California. I left her in tears." Tears for what? For him, after all. Suddenly he turned on his heel and punged down the steps. A hansom was drawn up at the curb. The driver knew him well and touched his hat interrogatively. "Home!" exclaimed Ryals, and then as the fanom rumbled over the asphalt he murmured in softer tones. "Home!" The Story of a Song. The story of "Ninety and Nine," the well known kjvm the music for which Ira D. Sankey improvised in a burst of deep feeling, was told by the Rev. Dr. C. E. Locke at the funeral of Mr. Sankey. The evangelist had found a little poem, "The Lost Sheep," in a British newspaper, so runs Dr. Locke's account in the Brooklyn Eagle, and had clipped it. One night in Edinburgh Mr. Moody asked him to sing. Mr. Moody has just finished his sermon, "The Good Shepherd." Mr. Sankey had no thought of composing a new song, but as he used to tell the story, "As I sat in the organ my fingers fell on A flat and my eyes fell on that little poem. I began to sing, and I sang the words of that poem. When he had finished Mr. Moody rushed down from the platform and asked him where he had found that song. He said it was the most wonderful song he had ever heard. Mr. Moody was weeping, Mr. Sankey was weeping, and the audience was in tears, so great was the impression produced by the song. "I sang it as God gave it to me," Mr. Sankey replied. He never changed a note of the song from the time it fell from his lips. Have you subscribed for the Advocate? If I not, why not.

The Declaration of Independence (the creation of his genius) is an eternal monument to his fame more enduring than statues of marble or bronze. As a statesman in Congress he advocated the brewing industry as an aid to agriculture and national temperance; and upon several occasions he bought and freighted rum, wine and whiskey to the brave soldiers of the Revolution. He himself declared that the juice of the malt was never absent from his board. Thomas Jefferson was a splendid athlete, a crack shot; and in his prime at the old Raleigh tavern he delighted to enjoy his "cakes and ale" or dance half through the night with the fair maids of old Virginia. At eighty-three he died, regretted by the nation he helped to create. His deeds and written thoughts absolutely and irrefutably prove that good malt beer is not injurious to mind or body.

While it is awful quite painful, quick relief may be had by applying Chamblain's Liniment. Not one case of rheumatism in ten requires internal treatment. When there is no fever and no swelling as muscular and chronic rheumatism, Chamblain's Liniment will accomplish more than any internal treatment. For sale by C. A. Potterfield, Cor. Capitol and Va.

A child is in ch more likely to contract diptheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The quicker you care his cold the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the sole reliance of many mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F. F. Starcher, of Ripley, W. Va., says, "I have never used anything other than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for my children and it has always given good satisfaction." This remedy contains no option or other marcotid and may be given as confidently to a child as to an adult. Exposed by C. A. Potterfield, Mr. Capitol and Va.
