good fight, and conquered the great enemies Of
MANTLE devil, the world. and the flesh. and are
now enjoying the reward of their sanctifed lives.
Now, what is sanctity? 1t is a form Of courage
that enables to live noble life and keep Gods
commandments faithfully. Sanctty is something
the contemplation of which has occupied the at
tention of some of the greatest of the world
The lives of the saints are great in the true
sense of that term: they great beyond the
worlds standard of greatness. To some men,
greatness consists only in attaining the end to,
which they aspire in this world. Some rush into,
excuses and spread devastation far and wide
that they may conquer. Others burn the mid
night taper in silent study that they may be,
looked up to for their knowledge and others seek
ted position this worlds stage that
they may be preserved as shadow in the memory
of men and thus continue to make noise when,
they have passed away. And this is all they
substance of greatness. This thought would cause
us to exclaim with the wise man, Vanity of van
titles, all is vanity but the loving and serving of
God" 1t these worldly vices that caused
the fall of the unfortunate Cardinal Wolsey-he
forsook his God to be a slave to his king
True greatness-the greatness of the saints
consists in adhering faithfully to the command
ments of God; in withst Anding the temptations of
the world and the flesh. and in living up to noble
ideas and for noble purpose. The lives of the
saints are worthy examples for us; if aspire
to live as they have lived we shall reap the same
reward that they now enjoying.

We Are Entertained.

Tuesday afternoon from 80 to p. m we were
allowed to shake off the monotony of prison life
for the time and enjoy some of the pleasures that
our own cussedness has deprived us Of perhaps
for many years. Our entertainers were members
of the c. l.. Davis Zone of the Old Stock" COM
pany, who we're in Saltwater two days of this
week. No prearrangements had been made for
the occasion, but it agreeable surprise to
all.
The entertainment was something after the
form of a concert. and consisted of vocal an in
strumental music, and recitatons pathetic and
humorous. The program carried out was as fol.
lows:
Overture ............. ........... Orchestra.
Selection (Southern Quartette) .Bently Bros.
Recitation 1.-The Little Hero. ....Chas. Norris.
Comic Motto Song .................Wm robinson.
Humorous Recitation. VIM. Robinson.

Quartette, Limitation Steamboat

Finale. .......... Orchestra.
The various quartettes by the Bently brothers
we're well rceived especially their imitation of
steamboat bells and whistle, and banjo. One
would think it impossible for the human voice to
adapt itself so completely to such foreign sounds.
and we kept close watch upon the orchestra to
not being manipulated. The recitations dealt
with incidents in life with which we are all well
acquainted, and, while they were interesting and
amusing to high degree, they also pointed
moral that is worthy of our deepest thought. No
one Of us who listened to the recitation of 1.-The
Little Hero" could help but feel that the sim.
pie, unaffected prayer of Little Dick would have
had the effect upon us as it had on the gruff

story of the degrading influences of whisky. The
orchestra was composed of seven intruments and
interspersed the performance with some excellent
musical seasoning. Eleven gentlemen and three
lady members of the company were present, ex-
elusive Of the orchestra. which is also a part of
the company. At the close of the entertainment
the Warden thanked the company on behalf of
the inmates. and a strong second to his vote of
thanks. three rousing cheers. freighted with all
the vigor Of enthusiasm and gratefulness, were
given by the inmates.
Such entertainments as these can have none
other than a beneficial effect upon u.s. as they
tend to neutralize the sourness that results from
prison life. We again take the occasion to tender
our thanks to Chas. L. Davis and his company for
their generous thougbtiulness, and may they al
ways have appreciat.ve audience as that
which greeted them on the afternoon of Nov 5,
is our heartfelt wish.
