Bootblacks have Of late been driving good
trade at the east end of the board walk leading
to the monument where they lay in ambush
for the muddy-footed pilgrims returning from
the mecca OF America. One enterprising Afri-
can youngster bethought himself, when he had
the coast clear to himself. to so obstruct the
walk in the operation of backing the boots of
one patron as to force people out into the mud
and thus give himself more trade. Before his
scheme eliminated in the form of additional
nickels, however, the Waterman Of the monu-

vator has been making three trips an hour

Wild Jessamine Bells.

o stately, insensible pinesl
You would stand so proudly clear,
But the gentle caressing vines
Subdue your grace severe;
And you lift the perfume aloft
While sense so strange and soft
In your hard, brown bosom dwells.
As around you climb,
Like golden chime,
The wild, sweet tessamine bells.
o sudden spring Of the South.
You would take us all unaware,
You would kiss, with swift warm mouth,
The sting from the wintry air:
But You cannot steal in unknown,
Nor silence the herald tone
That ever your cunning tells.
When the woods rejoice
With the golden voice
OF the wild, sweet jessamine bells.
o bird, with the timid note!
Sing out for your time is here,
Open your trembling throat,
Bring us your welcome near:
Your cOmrade music has come
And the hours no longer are dumb:
For the hills and the palny dells
And the forests ring,
With the message Of spring.
In the wild, sweet jessamine bells.

At yesterdays session of the Washington con-
ference at Petersburg w. Va, Rev. W. T.

new churches and an increase in benevolent
collections. Revs. NJ. A. Dyer and p H. How

This is according to ruling of the general con-
ference and is equivalent to an expulsion Rev.
W. =. Ryder, presiding elder of the Washing

Washington, received special tribute. The
pastor, Rev. j. ii. Daily, was considered a bril-
liant pulpit orator, and had met the demands
of the masses, but from lack of executive and
pastoral ability the church had suffered con-
sderably. 1.-The officers" the elder remarked
"have more of the congregational spirit of
church government than that which is metho-
distic." The remarks were met by disapproval
from the pastor i'll charge, who declared that to
his knowledge the church had always been loval
to the entire church polity.
Robert Steele, presiding elder of the Wheel
ing district, made an encouraging report of his
work. He felt blessed in being upon the sides
of such great river and in great state that

monument was dirty white chimney of ugly

crazy derrick that slowly rotting away
In fact the stone was let into the shaft long
before the government took hold of the pro-
lect and pushed It to completion. Whether
from some flaw in the stone or error in setting.

from top to bottom, and the two parts
forced out at an angle so that a
great yawning crack nearly an inch

others Divine Providence directed against

had flaw and there happened to be an unus-

cracked and squeezed out until the pressure
had evened itself. For some reason or other
