The Democratic platform is fearfully
and wonderfully made. The Tariff
plank being the most wonderful pro-
duction of the day. Watterson, Mills,
Carlisle and Breckenridge, rank and
rabid Free traders, are delighted with
it, whilst German, Randall, Hewitt and
other pronounced Protectionists think
1t made of good ound solid timber.
It re-affirms the platform of 'S4 which
was a meaningless straddle, interpreted
as fayoring Protection or Free trade,
just as you please, to suit the views Of
the people you were talking to; en-
dorses Cleveland's Free trade message
and the Free trade Mills bill.
The British press commend both the
platform and the nominations as being
in favor of Free trade and British
interests.

'What is the proper style for glass
table-warep'
Tableware is all richly cut and is
decorated in shades. Some glassware
is opalescent and some have ivory
bisque grounds. Other glasses are
etched and cut; some Of these are very
beautiful, having all kinds of designs
on them. Customers very often fur
nish their own decorations. A promi-
nent yachtsman of this city recently
had his glasses all engraved with ma
rine scenes. Every piece had differ
ent scene They look very handsome.
Glass globes. lamp-shades. decanters.
water pitchers and ornaments are all
made of the opalescent glass. The eff
feet of this ware on a table is very
pretty. That is, of course, if a good
quality of goods is procured. The diff
ferent rays of light that are reflected
from it are very pleasing. It is not ex-
pensive, but one can spend large
amount Of money in purchasing unique
designs and perfect glasses. ~ 4

Social happenings: -Thursday eve
ming, June 18th, large number of Sab
bath school pupils headed by the Super
intendent and teachers, visited the
residence of Mrs Geo. Duckett to say
farewell to Miss Oracle Johnson. They
went we'll provided with ice cream and
other delicacies AMI spent very pleas
ant evening.
Friday evening, ut the handsomely
furnished residence Of Mrs.C. B. Lazen-
berry, oyer score of ladies represent
ing the L. U. L., together with selec-
ton of musical friends, gathered and
devoted very pleasant evening talk
ing about the good old days. The
Ladies Union League did noble service
in the early days of St. James church
Miss Bertha Heathcock. Messrs Lucca,
Mason, and Bell, rendered excellent
soloes. Miss Lulu Griswold performing
on the piano. Mrs. Addie Henry pre-
sided and calling Rev. Henderson for
ward, stated that the L. U. L. had as
sembled in honor of the pastor of St..
James church and would be pleased to
hear few words from him. Rev. Hen
derson proceeded in a five minutes
speech to congratulate the ladies upon
the frution of their hopes and the
achievement oftheir aims, SO nobly con-
ceived and so steadfastly pursued in
days of encouragement. All partook of
an excellent supper and departed full
of jov and viands.
Sabbath morning services were es-
pecially interesting. The sermon theme
The Widows Mite" was listened to
with marked attention. At conclusion
OF the sermon the pastor said: During
this year you have raised over $4,000
besides under God accom- lishing a
complete social and spiritual reforma-
ton. Over 100 persons have renowned
the world and taken up the cross. The
influence of St. James church is felt and
acknowledged throughout the COM
munity. You have made no enemies
because you havq treated all with fair
ness. It is a great piece of wisdom for
a church to learn how to attend strictly
to its own business and at the same time
not meddle with things that do not con
Germ it.
Some of our best friends and helpers
are persons whom many churches would
have made enemies Of, by impudently
undertaking to interior with their pri-
vate affairs. Our hands will always be
full if we do our duty to our members
and we have no time to intrude on the
affairs of others.
We acknowledge ourselves to be
under many obligations to our host of
friends for their aid and
You have done so well in giving and

Guided not to ask you to donate or

but as we need $500 they have invented
a unique plan to raise IT'D Over 100
mite boxes were then distributed to be
returned the first Sunday of July, that
the amount will be raised is almost a
certainty, for the members of st.
James church have never started in any
undertaking this year without having
made it q success
Mrs. I. III. Lyles and the board of
stewardesses are arranging an entertain

The Cormorant Entertainments.

The entertainment in aid Of the British
Benevolent Society, given Saturday
evening at the Opera House by officers
of H. B. NJ. S. Cormorant and local
amateur ladies', proved success in every
way First, there was a full house,
few empty chairs in the front rows being
compensated for by many extra chairs
filled at the back. The tableaux were ex-
ceedingly well presented, the first one Of
" Leap Year" being very suggestive
the popular fiction Of bissextile embar-
easements. AS for the closing tableau,
School Of the Vestal Virgins" it is
enough to say that its weird beauty was
regarded with equal enthusiasm to that
evinced on its former presentation last
year. Mrs. w. g. Irwin, as priestess,
performed the rites Of the sacred fire over
the candidates for vestal honor, persona
fed by Mrs. Winter, Misses i. Atkinson,
Barnard, Brown, Dowsett, Fuller, Glade,
Green, Humphreys, Mist, L. Mist. Put
nam, Robertson, Widdifeld and Wode-
house.
Lieuts Kingsmill and st. John, and
Misses Rhodes and Wodehouse per
formed the comedietta, HThe Misogy-
nists." The ladies acted their parts
with charming naivete, and st. John was
a host in himself. It is an intensely
humorous composition, with lessen TO
the male sex conveyed in the broadest
of satire. There was enough diversion
in this piece for whole evening.
Aunt Chari0tte's Maid'' was roar
ing farce, full Of fun for the "Philistines"
while not devoid Of opportunity for much
artistic treatment. The performers we're
Lieuts. st. John, Kingsmill and Pears,
and Misses Won Holt, Rhodes and Wode-
house. All made upin consummate gnfe
for their respective parts, and there was
lively business to maintain by Everyone.
As to their success, it needs only bere-
corded that the audience was c8nvulsed
with laughter from beginning tolend.
