MINISTERIAL CONGRESS.
To BE Held at the Chatauqua Grounds
Early Next Month.

To BE Held at the Chstauqua Grounds
Early Next Month.
Rev. George A. Tewksberry, of this city,
and Rev. r. s. McLafferty, of Tacoma. as
the committee on arrangements, have just
issued circular letter, as q result of pro-
posal made at the united meeting of the
Seattle and Tacoma ministerial associations
several weeks ago. stating that gathering
of the ministers of the Pacific Northwest
would be held at the Chautauqua grounds,
on vashon island, August to 9, 1890.
The object of the gathering will be to
promote professional improvement, in the
discussion of topics of vital interest as re-
lated to the minister's work, and in the en-
joyment of social interchange and leisurly
recreation. The disturbances of the forma-
ton of permanent organization to meet
annually for these general purposes will be
considered.
The first session viii be held Monday
evening and the last Saturday forenoon.
On each of the other days two sessions
will be held, one in the forenoon at the
hour found to be most desirable as related
to the arrival of boats. and one in the
evening. An essay or address will be pre-
sented at each of these sessions on some
definite and practical topic, concerning
which mutual conference and general dis
cussion will follow. These sessions will be
open to any who may wish to attend
them. A programme giving the list of
topics for the several sessions aud of the
persons to introduce them will be issued
as soon as possible. 1t is intended that
ample opportunity shall be given for fish,
ing, boating and other forms of recreation,
as personal preference may suggest.
Board and lodgings may be secured on
the grounds, and cottages and tents can
also be rented for a longer or shorter time.
Persons desiring to arrange beforehand for
there provisions may write to Mrs. M. B.
Reese, Chautauqua, Vashon island.
Ministers are desired to inform the
secretary of the committee whether it
seems likely that they can attend, either a
part of or all the week. 1t is hoped that
many will be able to be present

DRESS IN JAPAN.
The Picturesque Costume of Both Sexes
Which May Some Time be Lost.

The Picturesque Costume of Both Sexes
Which May Some Time be Lost.
Illustrated Americana
The Japanese dress is easily described
A series of loose wrappings, with gown,
Kimono, over all, is common to both sexes.
The Distinguishing feature between them
lies in the "obi." or girdle, worn by the
women. It is wrapped round the waist,
and tied into a bow at the back. Though
usually worn of one subdued color, the holi-
dav "obi," is very elaborate affair. The
rich embroidery which adorns it is of the
very best material that the purses of the
wearers will afford. 1t is really the on1y
part of their costume which gives them
scope for display, with the exception, per-
haps, of their headdress.
The male attire is similar, in many re-
spects, to that OF the other sex, but the
'obi" worn by men is only narrow band,
wrapped several times round the waist, and
with no embroidery or bright colors to make
it conspicuous. In this girdle the man will
carry pen and ink in case, also his to-
bacco pouch and pipe, and very frequently
the much caricatured fan. The national cos
tune is certainly pleasing in its simplicity,
but now European dress is rapidly being
adopted, which is pity, as it tends great
deal to destroy the characteristic look Of
the people

home in Pennsylvania, as elsewhere, will
depend to some extent on aid from outside
the ranks of the deaf themselves but they
are acting on the principle of selEhelp first
being the best kind of help. That they will
succeed there is no doubt, for other projects
have been carried through with great energy
and perseverance. Last year the Gallaudet
statue at Washington, D. O., was unveiled
to the proud and admiring deaf mute world.
1t cost 1000, and the money was raised
by the deaf alone. OF this amount 81, 900
was furnished by the Pennsylvania society.
The western third of the State gave more
than 500.
It is expected that several prominent per-
sons from abroad will be present to aid in
making the exercises of the convention in
this city interesting. Among these are the
Rev. Thomas Gallaudet, the son of Dr.
Thomos Hopkins Gallaudet, the first teacher
and the founder of deaf mute instruction in
America; Prof. Amos Draper, of the
National Deaf Mute College, of Washing
ton, D. c., Prof. A. L. E. Crouter, Princi-
pal of the Pennsylvania Institution for the
Deaf, at Philadelphia; the Rev. A. W.
Mann and Rev. j. II. Cloud, deaf mute
clergymen.
,UNFoRTUNATEs LONG NEGLECTED.
Perhaps nowhere can be found more
patent evidence that the world moves than
in the wonderfully changed condition of the
deaf since the beginning of the present cent
ury. With the strong desire of the Puritan
fathers for universal education, no attempt
was made to reach the mind of the deaf
mute, because there was no known method
by which he could be instructed. The ratio
of the deaf to the general population is
about 1 to 1900, and was probably never
less Here we have constantly increasing
number from earliest colonial times, shut
out from all the boasted educational advan-
tages. Harvard had celebrated one centen-
nial and was nearly ready for another; Yale
and William and Mary were each stalwart
adults well advanced In their second hun
dred years, and less pretentious schools were
springing up all over the country long be-

boys have squirt guns, and for three days
there is nothing but water-splashing. The
foreigners of Rangoon also engage in this
and the Chinese celebrate the feast with the
rest.
One Chinaman rigged up a hydrant with
two-inch pipe during the last feast, and,
as his house was on the main street, he had
the bulge on everyone else. He engaged a
coolie. to work the machine all day, and, as
he was selling water works, he had a good
advertisement in addition to his fun. A
swell Englishman arrived In Burmah last
year during this feast. He went to call on
one of the leading men of Rangoon in tall
silk hat and black clothes, and was met at
the door by a girl with bucket of water.
The girl asked him in Burmese as to
whether he was observing the water feast,
and be supposing that she wanted to know
whether he had come TO see her father,
nodded his head, and with that nod this
whole bucket of water went over his silk
hat and down the back of his collar, COM
pletely drenching him.
soUsED IN A BATHTUB.
During the same time another party of
Englishmen were told that some girls were
coming to throw water on them. Thev had
the servants bring out the bathtub and put
it on the verandah, and when the girls came
one of them seized one of the maidens and
lifting her dropped her into the tub. This
was considered very impolite, and the young
man who did it suffered by receiving no
further attentions from the Burmese beau
ties.
Along the Ganges in India it is sacred
duty of the Hindoos TO battle once every day
and they can wash away their sins while
they are washing their bodies. 1 have seen
10000 bathing at the same time at the holy
bath steps of Benares. There is, however,
no fun about the Hindoo bath. 1t is all re-
ligion and the batber prays during the
whole time. Both sexes bathe in the river
at the same time, but they keep their
clothes on and they do not mix together
The finest lighthouses of India are those be-
longing to the rajahs. The Mohammedans
have perhaps the finest baths of the far
East and the Mohammedans of India spend
fortunes on their baths. The most costly
baths of all Asia were those Of the Moham-
medan Kings of Agra and Delhi. In the
great palace of Abkar at Agra there is a
vast bathroom down under ground, the walls
of which are mosaic of many pieces of COL
ored glass set with mirrors as big around as
your thumbnail. These mirrors are num-
bered by the tens of thousands, and the
whole brilliantly lighted NEST have been
dazzling in the spray of the fountains.
ROUGH ON THE WIVES,
Here Akbar used to bath with his harem
and he reminds me of the Khedive of
Egypt, who cooled himself by riding around
the lakes in his palace grounds, with his
iairest beauties and now and then giving
one shove overheard to see if she could
swim. saw at Delhi in one of the palaces
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-06-29

a great impetus, and encouraged the estab-
lishment of other schools. New York and
Pennsylvania opened schools in 1S1 8 and 1920
respectively. The Hartford school was
chartered as the American Asylum, the
name which it bears to this day, much to
the distaste of its managers, teachers and
students. for it is not an asylum, but school
OF very high order. From this beginning,
in less than three-quarters of century, the
number of schools for the deaf in America
has grown to the number of SO, with an at
tendance of more than 5000. Several of
these are larger than the parent school, but
none of them excel her in the high grade of
school work done.
, The name Of Gallaudet is held in the
greatest reverence by the deaf throughout
the land. 1t is perpetuated also in the low.
ing devotion of his two sons, one having
given his life to the religious welfare of the
deaf in New York City, and the other bav-
ing turned his superior talents to higher
education as the President of the National
Deaf Mute College.

canopy top, and gentleman who saw the
picture said it was just the thing, if the
horse could be found to work with his head
toward the buggy and tail at the ends of the
shaft, so that he could be led by the man
sitting inside. thus pushing the buggy in
stead Of pulling it.
The plan pleased the doctor and he ordered
the vehicle made. twas finished last week,
and wonderful looking affair it was. 1t
was 10 feet long from the big veloeipede
wheel behind to the end of the shafts in
trout.
DR.. Thurmond carried it home and gave
it trial. 1t worked all right, except that
there was too much of tw1sty motion
about it, and the doctor decided to add two
little wheels to the front of the vehicle, two
very little wheels. They do not work like
ordinary buggy wheels, but they work on
pivot like the rollers on center table. IF
the horse turns to the right the little wheels
will flop quickly to the right, while the big
wheel behind turns slowly and majestically
in the same direction. The only harness to
be used on the horse is the wooden collar
and a very wide bellyband to which the
shafts will be fastened.
