ANNUAL REPORT.
Read at the Cumberland Presby. terfan Church Dec. 17th,
 1885.

Our third years work as pastor and congregation is now closed. The cur tains of time have fallen between us and another year, and the question as to whether we have done our duty, must be answered by each ones con- science in the sight of God. live have done our duty, well. If we have been neglectful and allowed opportunities and privileges to pass unimproved we must remember that they will never come again. Therefore. we should strive not to allow single opportunity to pass without improvement, nor a single duty to be neglected.
 But we desire, simply, to present a report of our years work that 1t may serve as a guide post to us in the fu- ture.

 We have taken 40 members into the Church this year, and lost one by death. We now have 100 members, seven of whom are elders, and two deacons. Fourteen of the members take the Church paper.
 The Church house has been repaired and improved during the year to the amount of $425. The parsonage property has been increased In value $l00.

 Our church is in good working con- dition, and the prospects before us are more flattering than they have been since our connection.
 Now, let us enter the new year with zeal and new determinations, and, by the grace of God, we can do more in the future than we have in the past.

On Saturday nISht some parties notified the agent al Huachuca Siding that some men were spreadin. the rails few miles below, with the evident intention of rotbing the train. When the train came along yes terday morning from Nogales, the cngipcez was told to run slow for few miles, and to look out for the track. The train left the station and proceeded along very cautiously for about two miles, when three horse,rer were seen some distance ahead. and think ing these were the parties who intended robbing the train, the engineer reversed his lever and backed up 10 the station again. An armed party then went down the track and examined it for several miles but found it in perfect order, and could see nobody eS- cept some hercers who were hunting cattle. The train then went on its way unmoles;ed and the scare was attributed Co bad whiskey.

Revival of an Industrial Pastime Which
Was Once Very Popular.
Many ladies will welcome the revival
of the cross-stitch worsted work, which
promises to regain all its old-time pop
ularity. The designs follow closely the
antique, and are in lovely, delicate
shades. Sofa pillows worked ON can
vas, and strips for chair seats, footrest,
etc, to be upholstered with rich, dark
plush, follow some of the fashionable
designs for Kensington work, and as so
many ladies are familiar with this style
of work, it is being adopted even more
than the applique work, for which one
is constantly finding new and lovely de-
signs. A very pretty fancy at present
is the making of bags Of silk handker-
chiefs with bright-colored borders. The
handkerchief is first trimmed around
all four sides with white lace about two
and half inches wide A place for a
drawing string is then made in a COM
plete circle in the handkerchief, leav-
ing about three inches of the border
exclusive of the lace, to fall over the
outside, the circle forming the bag part
After the drawing string or elastic is
put in, finish with long loops of ribbon
about an inch wide. The bags are very
handsome and are also useful. Bags
are in fact seen everywhere, at the
present time, suspended from chande-
liers or from little brass hooks beside
mantel-pieces and windows, and even
hanging from the. tall backs of old.
fashioned chairs. They are of all sizes
and shapes. Quite pretty bag is made
of bed ticking, that with wide stripes.
Over the first blue stripe tack black vel
vet the same width, tack it on with
fancy stitches, embroider the white
stripe in some simple design or with
two or three rows of herring-bone
stitches. On the next blue stripe tack
gold or silver braid the same width,
fastening it on the velvet, and so on
with each stripe. Make the ticking sew
EN- or eight inches square and line with
some rich color, drawing up the lining
with handsome satin ribbons of the
same or contrasting color. Although
almost everybody has a macreme bag
few ladies carry them, and they are
now fastened on the wall or on a door,
and trimmed with few peacock feath-
ers and bright ribbon, or with large
punches of artificial flowers, and used
for ferns and leaves, or cones and
