Ash wednesday.

To-day, Wednesday, February 10Th. is
what is known in the church calendar as
Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the
Lenten season, introducing forty days
period of fasting and prayer, observed in
the Roman Catholic, Episcopal and Luth-
eran Churches. in commcmoration of the
forty days temptation of our Savior in
the wilderness In the former church
alone are strict requirements in regard to
HASTINGS officially enunciated and rigidly
observed: the latter, dedicating the times
to special penitential services, and allow
ing Individual consciences to dictate in
regard to personal abstinence from amuse
ments and customary food. The day de.
rives its title from the ancient custom of
the Roman Church on this day to sprin-
kle holy water on the ashes Of palm leaves
burnt on the Palm Sunday of the previous
year, and Herewith to mark on the fore
heads of the congregations the cross with
the injunction, Remember, man, that
thou art but ashes, and to dust viii thou
return"

HOW MEN DIE.

If we know all the methods of APP
proach adopted by an enemy we are the
better enabled TO ward off the dam er and
postpone the moment when surrender be
comes inevitable. In many instances the
inherent strength of the body sufiices to
enable it TO oppose the tendency toward
death. Many however have lost these
forces to such an extent that there is Tilt
tie or no help. In other cases little aid
to the weakened Lungs will make all the
difference between sudden death and
many years of useful life. Upon the first
symptoms of a Cough Cold or any trouble
OF the Throat or Lungs, give that old and
well known remedy-Boschee' German
Syrup, q careful trial. 1t will prove what
thousands say of it to be, the "benefac-
tor of any home"

Beginning Of Lent.

This season of fastening which COM
mences to-day. Wednesday, February
10Th, and which precedes the festival of
Easter, is supposed to have been intro
duced with the view of commemorating
our Saviours temptation, and His fasting
forty days in the wilderness. AT first it
seems to have been voluntary fast, con-
continuing forty hours-correspopding to
Friday and Saturday before Easter-and
comprising the entire period during
which our Redeemer lay in the grave. In
process of time this fast underwent con-
siderable change. and from a voluntary
it became regular prescribed fast. OBJ
served not by penitents and cate chumens
emily, but by Christians generally. The
fast began on Ash w ednesday and ended
with Saturday before Easter, which was
observed with solemnity and wasl lenomi-
mated the Great Sabbath Lent ends with
Easter Sunday. April 1st, six weeks and
three days from to day.

Home Talent.

Another evidence OF home talent of a
high order was given the society felix of
the city and Naval Academy last night in
the production of "A Cup of Tea" and
Popping the Question, by the Amateur
Theatrical Association at the Naval AGA
DENY. The annex to the Flag Building
which.has been arranged with stage fixt-
ures, dressing rooms dc, was used for the
first time. The stage settings were very fine
and the management faultless. Mrs.
Bartlett, as Lady Seymour, was partic-
ularly good and her natural manner, grace
and ease were warmly appreciated. Mr..
Hosely made Q good .Scroggins," and
gave evidence of talent for comedy. In
the farce Popping the Question" Mrs.

Our Music Appreciated.

Chas. Zimmerman, the talented leader
of the Naval Academy Band, to furnish
music for the celebration at Alexandria
on the 22nd inst The services of our
band were solicited by the Alexandria
authorities and negotiations have been
made which will doubtless result in favor
good music for the occasion.
Prof. Zimmerman will adopt the method
of concert music at the entertainments at
Alexandria similar to that at the recent
Colts ball which music was of high
classical ordere, and rendered in perfect
style under his leadership. He will also
