The Skaters Song.
BY MRS. W. W. THOMAS.

Hurrahl hurrah for the icy field,
The wind is fresh and free
And the fair moonlight hath crowned the nigh
At the skaters jubilee.
The frozen streams, and the diamond CLEANS
OF the wntry garb otsnows,
Havelmore of power than the festive hour
That with mrth and song oerilows
The ringing steel hath merry peal
For our listening ears tonight,
And the bending skies with their golden eyes
Have bathed u world III light.
Then, away away while the heart is gay
And the bosom tree from care;
There's glow of health and "A fund of wealth
To be found in the bracing air.
On, on we glide DER the crusted tide,
Nor swerve from the giddy round;
There is nought ofwile, there is nought of gull
In the mystic circle found.
Let others tell OF the calmer spell
Where The lights of friendship be;
Give me the song of the gladstone throng
AT the skaters jubilee.

Bishop Bowman, in an address at q
great temperance meeting curing the
session of the British Wesleyan con-

important decision by his parents, as
follows:
"When l was little boy, sir, slept
on truckle bed in my mothers room,
and one night, when, no doubt, she
thought me asleep, heard her say.
Il am getting very uneasy about our
only son carrying the liquor to the
work people, Father made answer.
What shall we do thenY WELL said
mother, Il will make strong coffee and
supply them with it while at work,
and at the close of the day give one
shilling to each of the forty employed
Sir, | carried out the coffee, and that
day all hands were content, and not a
bad word was used. Father gave
mother permission to pull out the tap
and let the liquor run away. She
quickly did so, praying all the time"

OminOus Figures.
In letter recently published in the
London Times, Mr.. William Holye
gives some facts and figures concern
ing the liquor traffic in Grea' Britain
that are really appalling. The ex-
renditure OH drink the past year was
1866, ,372 300, a sum 1886, 1925 in ex-
cess of the cost of the preceding year.
The consumption of beer alone amount
ed to 970,78S, ,564 gallons, the cost of
cost of other intoxicants at S271 $780,
$50. The drink bill for the past ten
years amounts to the enormous sum of
81 ,1SO, ,0OO,OOO, or nearly twice the
national debt of that country. This is
simply the cost of the liquor without
counting the indirect losses growing
out of its use. If these we're added
the gross total would exceed belief.
AS it is, the average yearly expend-
ture for drink is about $685., 900, 900, or
81 800, 900 more than the rental of all
the houses and land in the United
Kingdom. The development of crime,
pauperism and insanity keeps pace
with the increased consumption of
drink. While twenty years ago the
convictions for crime averaged 259 ,041
annually, for the past three years the
annual average has been 520,62S, an
increase of more than two hundred
per cent. The number of vagrants and
lunatics has increased in still greater
proportion, while the expenditures for
poor rates and police rates were great
er in 1880 than at any previous time in
English history. This is a terrible
picture for country which processes
TO stand at the front of Christian ma
lions. The Times may well say,
"drinking battles Us, cOnfounds us,
shames us and motks us at every
point. Every other institution tloun-
ders in hopeless difficulties; the pub
lie households its triumphant course"

Temperance Notes.


Ex-senator Merrimon of North
Carolina, in recent prohibition meet
ing in that State, said: 81 have never
meddled with liquor! / have never,
drunk it, have hardly kept it as medicine
in my family, and yet it has meddled
with me, has made my boy wander
ing vagabond, has broken my wife's
heart; YES, when | was asleep, think
ing him at home in the house, he was
being made a drunkard in the bar
rooms o Raleigh"
A lady has just given $4,000 to the
temperance cause, who few years ago
was told by her husband that as tenn
perance was being agitated in their
state (Virginia), he thought he would
sign the temperance pledge to help the
cause. With great pride she said, 81
should be ashamed of husband who
would thus surrender his personal lib

Last summer, at great public
meeting in Exeter hall, London, His
Eminence Cardinal Manning said:
"What is all our politics compared
with this question? wish some
of our great statesmen would walk
through our great towns, and would
go from house to house, and see the
condition of the people. wish they
would come and hear the biographies
OF intense misery which are found
under the humblest roofs; and when
they have heard these things, and
found that they ale to be traced up to

their political questions and conflicts,

the people. How is it that men
who profess to be statesmen and pol
iticans can waste their time, aud the
time of the Legislature, before they

A colored man named Clayton Earles,
who resides on or near the village OF
Christiana, believes that he he is sooi
to be the poSsessOr of COnsiderabl,
wealth. His mother died in Philadel
phia in 1917, and he alleges that certain
parties in tearing down the llOuse,a yeal
or two ago, in which she had resided
found large sums Of money hidden
away in different places, of which they
took possession and converted to their
own use instead of handing il over to
the heirs.
The propriety of taking action to re
cover his legitimate share of the wealth
was impressed upon his mind, rs he
was sleeping on his bed a few nights
ago, by the sound of wings like unto
the noise of IA high wind, when his
mother appeared, and in sweet mellfiu-
GUS tones said: "Claytey, you have
not got the money yet. He aroused
from his slunlher when the appartion
Immediately disappeared. So great was
the impression, however, made upon
his mind that he visited Philadelphia
few days afterwards to look after the
lost treasure, and on his return to this
city be employed an attorney to take
legal measures to force the parties in
possession I" pay to him his proper
share of the wealth, which he believes
to equal the value of the mines of
Mexico or Nevada.
Clayton has had a rather chequered
experience in this life, yet he thinks
it possible that he may become the
pos,essor of wealth, and experience a
pleasure that will compensate for his
various hardships and umiliations.

FINE QUARTERS.
The Old Building No. los West
seventh Street Turned Into q
Model Saloon.

Sometime ago the old building sitl-
ated at No. 1OS West Seventh stree ,
and owned by A. H. p Barr, was pur-
chased by Charles j. Fl. Beckett, who
took immediate steps toward enlarging,
reDovating and improving the same,
with view of turning it into com
Portable dwelling and tirst-class saloon.
Plans were accordingly drawn, :he
contract awarded, and in short time
the building was transformed from an
old structure to one of later design. and
is now equal to new building. Bailey
& Hughes were the contractors, and
did all the carpenter work. George
Rrackin had charge of the brick work,
Cardwell&Wall did the painting and
granting, Edward Parker the paper
hanging, and john Bryscn the plumb
ing. Jackson&Sharp furnished the mile
work, and the bar, which i. said To be
the finest in the city. 1t is of the East
Lake pattern, in the latest design, and is
a model of beauty.
The paper hanging is neat and tasty,
while the painting is very attractive.
The bar is located in the rear of the
main room, and is fitted up with plate
glass mirrors, lunch tables, ornaments
and everything necessary in a place
of this description, the whole forming
complete saloon and quite au improve
ment upon Mr.. Beckett's old quarters.
The entire building was also enlarged,
a new front was pu in and IL back
building added, all Of which was done
in a worknanlike manner and the va
rious contractors are to be congratulated
upon the sncSess of their efforts in ren-
dering such complete change to the
former old structure.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Beckett to
keep nothing but the purest wines,
liquors, etc, for family use or medici-
nal purposes. He alsoproposeS to serve
up first class lunch every day amp

customers in the best manner possible.

THE NEED OF A QUARANTINE.
The Necessity for Guarding Agalns
the InlrOd uctiOn Of Disease.

The fact that it has been officially an
nounced that the cholera has made it,
appearance in England, having mos,
probably been conveyed to that coun
try by ships from Egypt, and the death
Of General Ord ut Havana by yellow
fever, should awaken our health au.
thorities to the necessity Of a strict
quarantine, to prevent the possibility
of vessel from an infected port coming
to this city, or bringing goods that have
been brought to other countries from
places where either disease exists.
fla strict quarantine had been estab-
lished last winter, it is probable this
city would not have been scourged with
the smallpox, and many homes that
are now desoate might have been
spared the loss Of a husband, or wife, or
a beloved child. There are laws enough
to punish any master of a vessel bring
ingan infectious Or contagious disease to
this city, bat that is not enough, and
savors too much of the old proverb
about locking the stable door after the
horse is stolen. What is now needed is
a quarantine rigid and effective, to pre-
vent disease being introduced, and to
keep vessels, from places where it exists,
or those having sickness on board from
coming up the Christana.
Council should not hesitate q moment
to give the Board OF Health all the
necessary authority in this matter, and
sufficient means to carry it into effect,
as under the present system we are liza
bic to have disease Of any kind brought
to our very doors. No vessel of any
kind, flom any foreign port, should be
allowed to come ap the Christana until
it is thoroughly inspected by compe
tent medical examiner.
The Board of Health is, and has been,
vigiant in the past to leave no means
,mdone to conduce to the sanitary well
fare Of of this city, and the result is
seen in the low death rate, in cOlnpari-
son with that of other cities, but now
extra precautions should be taken %
prevent the introduction of either chol-
era or the fatal yellow fever. The Ex-
ecutive Officers should see that all di-
sease breeding nuisances are abated,
and all places likely to produce disease
thoroughly cleansed and disenfected,
and then, if in spite of all these precau-
tions, either of these dreaded diseases
should make their appearance, We will
have the consciousness of having done
all in our power to avert them. Per
sons should be careful of their diet, and
also see that there are no disease breed
ing spots in their cellars or yards. An
ounce of prevention is said to be worth
a pounl Of cure, and is frequently
much cheaper.
