Notice to the Friends Of the Night
school.

This activity of the YOU'VE MEMS CHRISTIAN
ASSOCIATION is too we'll and favorably known
to require any mention of It's merits and OF us
claims upon the benevolence Of all phiantnrop!c
as well rs Christian citizens.
There was, perhaps, never time when tAis
School promised more good by way OF improv-
ing the boys OF the city by this means than at
the present.
Numbering about forty pupils, who every
night in the week are taught and trained In
those things that go to make them good and use
full citizens, instead of being left TO roam round
the streets without guide, aim or object, nothing
could be more desirable than the continuation
of this School.
But it becomes necessary to make known to
the citizens that all the funds for It's support are
exhausted, and it must be discontinued at once,
unless the means are Immediately placed IN the
hands of the committee to keep it up.
We are sure that this notice is all that is need
ed to secure the desired help.
All funds for the above object will be sent to

All saw the act, and with opened eyes and
months sat 10 asgonished silence, waiting 10 see
what would be done next The outraged clu,

looked at his frill. the officer and the pig, one
after another. The colonel, unmindiul OF the
pal]id couptenauce and significant g'ances OF
the burning eyes, leaned back in his char with
arms akimbo regarding the young fellow with
cool disdain. 4 murmur Of surprise and IT,
