THE ANCHOR.

The rust is red upon its sides;
About it drifts the crumbling sand;
While noon and night the restless tides
Mnrmur far down upon the strand.
But never tide shall touch it more,
Nor flying foam nor salt sea spray
There it has lain for many day,
Since the Oscar sailing across the bay,
Went down in sight of shore.
y eager eyes that sought in vain
10 pierce the darkness of that night
y trembling hands that strove to gain
The haven near, and failed outright
Some died with faces heavenward set,
Some watching still for the nearer land;
This is their anchor that lies here yet,
Half buried in the sand
o Thou who in the days of old
Didst walk by restless Galilee,
Look, and in pity still behold
The toilers on life's troubled sea,
Lest our dim eyes should look in vain
For stars in heaven. or lights on shore;
Lest in the darkness we should gain
Gun haven nevermore.
= Littells Living Age.

Religious Notes

Rev DR.. Dana has resumed, by request, his
former practice Of preaching five minute ser
mon to the children or youth in the congregation,
prior to the longer and more formal discourse.
As before, the sermonette seems TO be relished
by the elders as well as Juniors
Special re-opening services are preparing, TO
mark the re-occupying of Plymouth church. the
first sabbath in September, il the building is then
ready.
Why should not the Evangelical Protestant
churches unite together for enc general evening
service at some central place during August. 1t
would grow into a popular service and be far
more effective.

These local teams, composed of doctors, real
estate men, insurance agents and other s'riff-
ratf' of st. Paul, crossed bats yesterday after
noon, the former winning by a score of 90 to IA
The length of the names of the teams is perhaps
the most noticeable thing about the whole outfit,
but moments reflection will convince Ole that
they are correctly applied. The ''Unconquered'
got the larger score, but the ''Invincibles''
played with only eight men, the presumption
being that they either expected to win thus
short handed or else one of their men had
been killed in former match. At the close of
the game this was offered the chief excuse for
the big opposition score, "a professional club
would have been sharp enough to put the whole
matter on the nmpires shoulders). Consider
able blame is also laid at the feet of S. B. Gun
ningham, Invineible center fielder and it is darkly
limited by certain kickers that he lost the game.
1t is claimed that had he been provided with
large apron he would have covered himself with
glory. The game was hotly contested in spite
of the fact that it a cool day. for thrty-seven
runs were made, and it is just as far around the
bases for doctor or insurance agent as it is for
boot black or professional player The men
tionable features of the game were two
double plays by Severance aud Chanter and
a home run by McNar. The same teams will
meet again next saturday afternoon, the game
to begin at 3 o'clock Ladies will be admitted

Romeo A. Singer, legitimate grandson
of the late Isaac NJ Singer, the millionaire
inventor OF the Singer sewing machine, is
charity lunatic in the Wards Island insane
asylum. He is a boy of 49, He walks up
and down the halls moody and sullen, con-
stantly engaged in inventing machinery.
When he can be induced to talk he tells about
the devices for new or improved machines
which he has worked out. His face will light
up for short time as he tells of the fortune
his inventions will bring him, but it soon re-
sumes its usual srillen aspect, and goes on
brooding over cogs and cams and cranks
He was taken to Wards Island on June 10
from Amytyyille Asylum. He will probably
not leave it until he is dead.
Romeo Singer is the youngest of the three
sons born to Will and his wife, Anna Singer.
The wife, Anna, is now living as house
keeper in the home of Mr.. Samuel Cole gate,
at West Orange. She married William Sing
er 25 years ago, and got divorce from him,
she afterward married William Leith, brok-
er, who is dead. She had three children by
William Singer. Her mother, Mrs. Pape, of
3 Chrystie street reared them. The Oldest.
Walter A. Singer. is 25 years of age. He
lives in two rooms at AS Ludlow street His
mother says that he is in abject poverty. He
has trade but the dull season for him is the
summer, and he has been out of work some
time.
Thenext one died last summer. He was
deaf mute, but was educated at a institu-
ton. He was tramping in the west seeking
work. He was walking along a railroad and
was struck by train. The third is the
insane son. He lost his reason six months
ago.

TIMELY TOPICS.

The broad community have but limited
idea, if any idea at all, of the cruelty visited
upon children in cities by parental neglect
or brutality. Such neglect sud abuse exists
largely among the poor and degraded, and
children are subjected to hardships and cru
elites often appalling. A meeting was re-
Gently held in London for the formation OF
society for the prevention of cruelty to child
rem. So many children are destitute OF pa
rental feeling, so many children are parent
less and uncared for, destitute and suffering
that the spirit of humanity and philanthropy
is invoked to interpose to secure children
from narrowing cruelties. At this meeting
many of the noblest spirits in England were
present. In the unavoidable absence of the
Lord Mayor Alderman Gotten presided. He
forcibly pointed out that this rescuing the
children of the degraded poor from inhuman
treatment was peculiarly a mission for wo-
men. The women of London are not insen-
sibe to their responsibilities in this drec-
ton. At this meeting many ladies of rank
were present, and amoug them the Baroness
Burdett Coutts. Similar societies exist in
In moving resolution declaring the desira-
bility of forming such society, Lord Shafts
bury called attention to the various forms of
cruelty to which children are subjected.
Children are often locked up in rooms with
out food or fire. Parents often send out
children late at night to sell papers and
matches; and in one instance child had
been rescued and sent to Canada vino had
been taught by his mother to blaspheme
most horribly in public houses. for the sake
OF getting few pence from the rude people
who were amused by the performance. One
speaker had seen children sleeping in the
snow. on door-steps, with bundles of papers
under their little arms. 1t is marvellous that
the parental instinct can be so thoroughly
extinguished in the human breast, as is
manifested by the neglect and cruelty visited
upon children. ''Can mother forget her
sucking child!" asks in the Scriptures the
Divine author of human existence, and
gives the startling answer, "she may" The
history of the race, in the instances of pa
rental crminality in the advanced stage of
civilization in the nineteenth century, fully
and painfully verify the truth of this unfold
ing of one of the darkest pictures in human
history. When parental love fails properly
to care for and protect helpless and innocent
childhood, it is time for philanthropy to step
in and supply the place of absent parental
affection. No benevolent manifestation is
more needle at the present day than the for
nation of societies for the prevention of
cruelty to children.

The st. Paul Red Caps met the Eau Claire
Cresents yesterday afternoon at the West
Seventh street park, in the presence of several
hundred people. The home club had things
pretty much as they liked up to the ninth inning,
scoring three times in the first inning, twice in
the third, and once in the fourth, the visitors
securing solitary run in the sixth The ninth
inning, however, was an uproarious one
throughout, reminding one of tie
ball playing at the ''deestrict''
school twenty years ago. The Eau Claire willow
wielders tumbled to Poucher's deceptive curves
and hit the ball so hard that the home team got
ratified all around, and the sum total of the in
ming was six runs, the visitors having advan-
tage of one run. St. Paul then went in and
scored the tying errors. In the tenth in
uing Eau Claire was BANKED and St. Paul Sc
cured the necessary run The score by innings

IT is reported from Paris to the London
Times that NJ. Pasteur's experiments with the
virus of hydrophobia are going on with I'M
broken success. He has thus far expert
mented on ffty-seven dogs, nineteen of
them mad and thirty Eight bitten by them
under uniform conditions. Out of these thirty
eight half had been previously inoculated,
the other half not. The latter, without a
single exception, died with unmistakable
signs of hyrophobia, whereas the nineteen
others are about, and as well as ever. They
will be watched for year by veterinary
doctors to see whether the incubation holds
good permanently or temporarily. NJ Pas
teur's theory is that hydrophobia is produced
solely by the bite, and if this is correct law
compelling all dogs to be inoculated would
in the end extirpate hydrophobia entirely,
whereas if the disease arises spontaneously
such an enactment would be less effectual
NJ. Pasteur's theory appears to be gaining
acceptance. His experiments will be watch
ed with interest.

'sThere is less from intemperance; less from

more various food; far more and cheaper
clothing; far more and healthier recrestions.
We have on the whole better houses and bet
ter drains. better water and air; and better

with which the sick are treated in hospitals.
