Yesterday morning two Italian emf
grants went to the statiOn-hOuse and
through an Interpreter complained that
they had been robbed. They were sent
10 the Police Court, where they, through
the Interpreter, told their story as fol-
lows A New York banker sent them
tickets direct from Italy to Colorado.
They arrived at Newport News on We'd
nesday, where they metwith a man who
represented himself as q railroad agent,
whose business it was to look
after emgrants and forward them to
their destination. lie took their tickets
and blegagc-checks and accompanied
them through Norfolk to Petersburg,
where he lett them. He gave them a
printed slip in an envelope, which they
thought was IL receipt for their checks
and tickets. This was simply the bottom
of railroad circular torn of, which
read "For further information apply

dress OF the present age, and the style OF
headwear is much criticised. Said he /:
".What are these large bats that we see
now compared with the coal-scuttle hats
Of ages ago? Why, they are nothing.
And you hear them talk nowadays
about the way ladies dress their
hair. 1t is nothing to compare with
the top-knots worn then. In the
last century they baye worn the hair
way mp on the top of their heads and
crowned off with white rosebud.
The speaker continued comparing the
styles of ancient and modern days In
an original and very ingenious way.
de said there is much talk nowadays
about dissipation. But look back to
when the present old men were boys,
when every house had an old sideboard,
in or on which was kept something to
drink. He recalled an instance in his
boyhood when one of his relatives, who
had company. stole off upstairs and
took q sip without saying a word
on the subject to his guests. 1t is true
that there are many fashionable drinks
now that were not known then, but then
there was drunk a great deal OF lemon
ade, and about which there was no great
deal Of lemon.
CLOSING WORDS.
After many amusing recitals the Doc
tor came down to the more practical dis
cnssioR of his theme, and showed that
thisis a dayo progress and advancement.
He said there are $50, 900 reasons why
America is the greatest country on the
globe. That is, during the past year this
number of people have come from the
other countries to America, and had life
in other countries been more desirable
than here the reverse would have been
tine case. AS an evidence OF the i'm
provement of the world the intelligent
races are becoming dominant and
brains arc ruling the universe. In
his peroation DR.. Talmage beautl-
fully pictured the great future that
awaits this people when the whole civil
lied world will have joined hands when
the United States and beautiful, hospita-
bic Canada wed, and there dawns an era
OF prosperity, wealth, and good feeling
the world over, the like of which has
never been known.
DR.. Talmage closed his lecture very
unexpectedly with a very graceful adleu,
and when he retired he was loudly APP
plauded. His effort was one that did
him credit and afforded his hearers genu-
inc enjoyment. There was about
it that striking originality that
characterizes all of his sayings
and writings. He spoke from notes
and at times stuck to his manuscript
quite closely. Its appearance indicated
That it had been used more than once
before. After the lecture n number of
ladies and gentlemen shook hands with
DR.. Talmage.
