Interesting Batch Of News Pointedly Para
Rraphed for Readers.


"The Gamblers Wife" at the EIysian
theater this evening is q worthy attrac-
ton.
Mrs Mary Gillespie, of Wheeling,
spent Thanksgiving with the family OF
James FittOn.
Thanksgiving in this city was only
partly observed. Most of the business
places were closed part of the day, but a
majority of the factories continued as
usual.
The entertainment in the First Presby-
terian church last evening drew ont a
large crowd. The singing and speeches
were well received, as was also the amount
of good things in the form of refreshments
that were served after the exercises.
Clarence Harper, who had one of his feet
so badly burned at the steel works that II
had to be amputated, about ten days ago,
will, We understand, have to suffer another
operation. The physicians, at the time OF
the accident, thought that if the foot was
removed all would. be well, but it appears
that the injury does not heal and that part
Of the leg will have to come off TO insnre
the recovery Of young Harper.
Union Thanksgiving service was held
yesterday morning in the First Presby-
terian church. After prayer by Rev. J..
c. Smith, and reading of passages Of Scrip
ture by Rev. F. W. Hustedt, Rev. X. F.
Keeler began the appointed sermon,
which proved quite interesting throughout
and commanded the closest attention.
The reverend gentleman, in the course OF
his talk, said that the people had q great
deal TO offer thanks for. The United
States is at present blessed with prosperity
in the fullest acceptance of the term.
Crops during the past year were all that
could be expected, and labor. the whole
country over, is employed. Mr.. Keeler
said he saw no necessity why we should
not feel bleSt and happy.
A good story Is told of four bottle blow
ers. The other night as they were about
to retire for the night at their boarding
place they concluded to have drink Oi
water. One Of the party was sent to
bring the desired article. He descended
the stairs, filled a pitcher and started

TIE EVENING SESSION.
Prof. VenabIe's Lecture on "Humor and
PathOs In School Life."

Prof. VenabIe's Lecture OH "Humor and
Pathos In School Life."
Thomas Tadmor, or Humor and Pathos
in School Life" was the subject of n de-
lightful lecture delivered to a delighted
audience in the United Presbyterian
Church last evening by Professor W. II.
Venable. This admirable lecture aims to
amuse and instruct by exposing shamS in
education, such rs mechanical teaching
and over pressure in the school room. The
Professor was very successful in taking of
routine instruction, false methods of fschoOl
training and strained elOcution. Asa whole
the lecture is noble plea for liberal, gen.
erous and gentle teaching 1t takes a
natural boy into the Chop-fodder Acad-
envy, the pupils of which are presented to
the audience in u school exhibition. Far
ther along Tom delivered lecture to ami
mails, and again he discusses on history to
juvenile Fourth of July audience.
Toms sister Han is now sent to a
high-pressure school to be fitted
for Vassar, and Tom is made the
happy owner of gun. With this he
kills a meadow lark, the death OF
which so affects the young hunter that his
feeling are aroused toward sympathizing
with all that suffer. Then follows the
new birth of Toms intellectual life, and
the.aspirations for career of usefulness
in the world. Here is introduced a
school examination which is one of the
best features of the lecture, which con-
cludes with the pathetic scene ofthe death
of Toms sister.
The gestures and elOcntion of Professor
Venable are fine and his effort was fully
appreciated by his large audience.
