Editor Gasette;
Please allow US to say few words
to the readers Of your valuable paper
about the organization Of Y. M
G. A. at the State Normal and In
dustrial School. We have organ
lied a 7. M. c. A. and expect to dc
good in every way possible, to make

Binford, Jr. Vice President, w. S.
Sawyer, Recording and Corresp0n-
ding Sec'y.
The Board of Directors consisted
Of c.. M. Summerford, j. w. Whit
field, and others. All are Christian
young men and we look to the fu-
ture for grand results. The ladies
have also organized Woman's Aux
iliary and the prospects seem bright.
Our Association is not yet what we
hope to make it. We believe that
great good can be accomplished.
Many seem interested in the work
and we hope that in the future it
will be one Of the leading elements
that will encourage the young people
Of Huntsville, to turn out on Sun
days to hear the word ofGod, rather
than idling their times away on the
streets.
The Woman's Auxiliary organic
es as follows: Miss Bane was elected
temporary chairman. After which
Miss Diuch was elected President.

The Danger signal.

Some little excitement was created
yesterday on West Clinton street when
it was learned that the authorities had
hung out a yellow flag in front Of ne.
gro residence. On inquiry our reporter
learned that the city health authorities
had decided that sick negro girl in that
house had well developed case of scar
let fever and had ordered that the case
be isolated; hence the flags.
In conversation with DR.. Dement,
(who is acting health officer during the
absence Of DR.. Lowry he expressed NO
fear of spread of the fever in the local
ity, but said that all due canton will be
observed to prevent contact with out
siders.
There has been no scarlet fever in this
section, to amount to anything since
1855.-Mercury.

SUNDAY EXCURSIONS.
The Great Evil of the Day.

HUNTSVILLE, ALA, May 9th, 1889.
To the Huntsville Gazette.
have observed with regret the in
creasing propensity of our people to
crowd On the Sunday excursions. It
seems that they have given up all
idea Of accumulating any thing-and
are "bent and bound" to live from
hand to mouth.
1t seems that there is an excursion
every Sunday or SO, and the cars are
crowded with colered people.
Is there no other time for Excurs
ions but Sunday? If there was not
then there might be some excuse for
this profaning Of the Lords day.
The fact is we colored people are
not able to afford riding on these ex-
cursions at all: Certainly we can not
afford to do so at the expense of eur
morals, religion and all ideas of de-
cency.
Let the Sunday excursions 60.
They are the great evil of the day.
Keep off of them. Remember the
Sabbath day and keep it holy"

GAMBLING IN GRAIN.

The following forcible language is
used by the supreme court of Illinois
in deciding a case recently before it
involving an ''option deal.
eve are clearly of the opinion that
dealing in futures or options as
they are generally cllled, to be set
tied according to the fuctuatIon of
the market, is void by the common
law, for, among other reasons, it Is
contrary to public policy It is not
only contrary to public policy, but it
is a crime crime against the state,
a crime against the general welfare
and happiness of the people, a crime
against religion and morality, and
crime against all legitimate trade and
business. This species Of gambling
has become emphatically and pre-
eminently the national sin In It's
proportions and extent it is unmeas-
urable. In its pernicious and ruin
Gus consequences it is simply appall-
ing. Clothed with responsibility and
entrenched behind wealth and power,
it submits to no restraint, and defes
alike the laws Of God and man. With
despotic power, it Ieyies tribute upon
all trades and professions. It's vota-
ries and patrons are recruited from
every class of society. Through its
Observation-Disclosures the laws Of supply
aud demand have been reversed, and
the market is ruled by the amount of
money its manipulators can bring to
bear upon it."

What would we do We're it not for
the cranks? How slow the tired old
world would move did not the cranks
keep rushing it along. Columbus
was a crank on the subject of circum-
navigation, and at last met the fate
OF most cranks- was thrown into
prison and died in poverty and dis
grace. Greatly yenerated now Oh
yes, Telemachus, we usually esteem
crank most profoundly after we
have starved him to death. Harvav
was a crank on the subject of the cir
eulation Of the blood. Calico was
an astronomical crank Fulton was .
crank on steam navigation. Morse
was telegraph crank. All the bold
abolitionists were cranks. John Bnn-
yam was crank And anyone who
doesn't think as yon DO, my son, is a
crank. And, by-and-bye, the crank
you despise will have his name in
every mans mouth, and a half-com-
plete monument to his memory crum-
bling down IN a dozen different cities.
while nobody outside your native
village will know that you ever lived.
Deal gently with the cranls. nv
boy. OF course some cranks are
crankier than others, but do you be
very slow to sheer at a man because
he knows only one thing and you
can't understand that. You thank
heaven" you are not a crank? Don't
do that, my son. Maybe you couldn't
be a crank if you tried. Heaven isn't
very particular when it wants
weather vane; almost any man can do
for that But when it wants a crank,
my boy, it looks very carefully for
the best man IN the community. Be
fore you thank heaven that you are
not a crank, examine yourself care
fully and see what is the great de
fciency that debars you from such an
election. Budette.
