been but a short time since he opened

already established a reputation which
older merchants might envy. Perse-

Church Dedication.

Church Dedication. 81,
IT was our pleasure OH Sunday morn
ing to enjoy the interesting services of
the dedication ofthe Lutheran church.
at this place. The neat and commo-
dious building, which has just keen
completely renovated, was filled at the
appointed hour with large and appre
ciative audience. The interior of the
hom.e which presented a pleasing ap-
pearance on account of its freshness
and beauty, was also tastefully deco
rated with evergreens and flowers.
The dedication services performed
by Rev. w. s. Bowman, ID. D.. of
Charleston and Rev. A. G. Hough, the
pastor, where peculiarly imposing and
interesting; and the whole occasion
was enlivened by sweet strains of music
from the choir.
%Atter these services the dedication
sermon was preached by DIR. Bowman
and produced a lasting impression upon,
the spell bound audience. Besides its
profnndity and eloquence the address
was particularly pleasing on account of
Its adaptation to the occasion and its
confinement within the range of the
subject AT the close of the sermon an
appeal was made for aid in liquidating
the debt on the building, which in view
of the sacred GAUGE, we trust was
warmly responded to.
The Lutherans here comprise many
of our best citizens. and we hope that
the tabernacle which their faith and
christian philanthropy has reared in
our midst may lorg continue eight
to the world"to guide and comfort the
erring and troubled on life's weary
pilgrimage.

THE roKYs OF TIE S0UrH.

A writer says: "Southern towns there are in
existence that arc as untouched BY the hand
Of to-day as though they were buried deeper
than PompeH of old. They are buried to all
modern interests and purposes. Not breath
of air breathed by live, active men and women
ever reaches them; not ripple of the great
wsve called progress ever touches their shores;
they have few books, and anything they find
IN the newspapers beyond the markets, the
crops, and their side In politics, has no moan
ing for them. Yet they have gentlemen and
gentlewomen In their midst full of quaint,
old-fashioned dignity, and surrounded BY an
aroma OF good breeding not unlike In quality to
the odor Of dried rose leaves; they have few
Joung men and girls growing up In their
mothers footsteps, young people lacking the
full measure of what society to-day reckon as
thoroughbred, assured beau or belle; but often
their youths are honest and simple-hearted even
at twenty-five, and the girls, why, they grow
up, and oud and blossom into q modest, sweet
beauty, have their day of triumph and con-
quest and settle down to be the wife of some
country squire, and mother Of children, whom
they will train TO grow exactly as they were
trained"

ENooURAGLSG TO YoUyo SPEAKERS.

ENCOURAGING TO YOUNG SPEAKERS.
From Charles Francis Adams Memoirs Of his
Father.l
To many who remember him by the grand
title of his later years, ''the Old Man Elo-
quent," it will doubtless be surprise to read
in this book how ineloquent he was as young
man; and through what notifications and
failures and tolls he passed in order to acquire
his wonderful powers as debater. Thus,
under date OF 18th January, 1905, when he was
a member Of the Senate, he writes: "On this
occasion, as on almost every other, felt most
sensibly my deficiency as an extemporaneous
speaker. = It is slowness of comprehen-
sion-au incapacity to grasp the whole compass
of subject in the mind at once with such an
arrangement as leaves proper impression of
the detail-an incapacity to form ideas properly
precise and deiiuite with the rapidity necessary
to give them uninterrupted utterance. My
manner, therefore, is slow, hesitating, and often
much confused. Sometimes, from Inability to
furnish the words TO finish o thought COM
menced, begin sentence with ptopriety and
finish it with n9psense. Sometimes, after
carrying through al idea Of peculiar force to
its last Stage, the want QC proper word at
the c!oSa drives me to use ono which throws
me NbQls into Q Rgg,csque. And sometimes
The most fnP5oaiI.a Es details of a. srZumens
escape my mind az the m0ment when | want
them, though ever ready to present. them be-
fors and after. And hence in making the
transition from one part of IL to the other, I
am often compelled to take minute or two
for recollection, which leaves chasm of
silence always disagreeable to the hearers. I
must, therefore, never fiatter myself with the
hope of oratorieal distinction. At the same
time, 1t is possible that by continual exertions,
application, and self-censure, part of the iii
effects of these infirmities may be rcmedied."
Surely in these words, and in the latter career
of "the Old Man Eloquent" there is material
for instruction and for encouragement for many
a youthful espiraut after oratorical distinction.

Baron Rothschild, learned this lesson one day
whep he chan:el to ride in q public Conveyance,

down threa:euingly. The money king was in

offered the driver coupon for fifty thousand
francs "to change" The driver started, the
passengers laughed, and just then an
acquaintance came up, from whom he
borrowed six sous, and paid the angry Jehu.

a NOTABLE MARRIAGE.
A WASHINGTON MERCHANT CAPTURED
BY A GERMAN BELJF


BY A GERMAN BELLE.
Captain Robert Otto Hertzog, familiarity
known as "Charley," formerly an officer of the
United States volunteer army, and at present
a member ofthe well-khown firm of Shoemaker
& Hertzog, Of this city, LEFT home suddenly and
under very suspicious circumstances, about two
weeks ago. - ~ IL :st,,ss-sss-
His whereabouts and mission were subse:
quehtly discovered, much to the relief of his
anxious friends. He was safely ensconced in a
well-known hotel In New York city, and had
taken up quarters there for the purpose of
being united In marriage to Miss Hildegard
Kruger, young lady who had but recently ar
rived from Berlin with the same object In view
The solemn rites Of the church which united
them were celebrated at the hotel May 10, in q
quiet way, in presence of q number of friends
who had assembled to witness them and congrat-
ulate tChsrley" on his good fortune, and be
present when he Dade adieu to helordom,
and accepted with becoming dignity the honors
and responsibilities which ever attend the head
of a family.
After spending the intervening time in sight
seeing, the couple returned to their home in
this city last night.
The lady Is young, intelligent, and handsome,
and while the members of the ''bachelor circle"
part with q genial member with regret, they
congratulate themselves that he has displayed
such admirable taste and discrimination, and
as unit last night wished Mr.. and Mrs. Hert-
zog long life and happy one.
The couple were last night the recipients Of q
serenade, which they graciously acknowledged.

4 BoYS COMPOSITION ON GIRLS.

Girls are the most unaccountable things in
the world-except women. Like the wicked
-feas, when you have them they amt there.
can cipher clean over to improper fractions,
and the teacher says do it frst-ratc, but
can't cipher out girl, proper or improper, and
you CAN'T either. The only rule in arithmetic
that hits their case is the double rule of two.
They are as full of the Old Nick as their skins
can hold, and they would die if they couldn't
torment somebody. When they try to be
mean they arc as mean as purseley, though
they amt as mean as they let on to
be, except sometimes, and then they are
great deal meaner. The only way to get
along with girl when she comes with
her nonsense is to give her tit for tat, and that
will fummux her; and when you get girl
fummuxed she is as nice as q new pie. A girl
can SOW more wild oats in day than boy can
in year, but girls get their wild oats sowed
after q while, which boys never do, and then
they settle down as calm and placid as mud
puddle. I like girls first-rate, and guess all
the boys do. / don't care how many tricks
they play on me, and they don't care either.
The hoity toitiest girl in the world can't always
boil over like 9 glass Of soda. BY and by they
will get into the traces with somebody they
like and pull as steady as an old stage-horSe.
That is the beauty of them. So let them wave,
say; they will pay for it some day-sewing on
buttons and tryin. to make decent man of
the fellow they have spliced on to: and ten
chances to one if they don't get the worst Of 1t.
