Bishop Perct, of Maryland, is delivering
series OF addresses at the business mems
prayer meetings held in Baltimore. In
one of these he touches upon a question

religion is LETT too women :" That il is
largely so, we all see, is an uudcninblc
fact. The religious services are mos,
largely attended by the women, all the
most active works of charity are per
formed by women most nt the sweetest

men. And most men stand aloof as il
they had no personal concern with rclig
ion, and that To women may he safely
left the work of keeping alive the fires on
the altars of devotion. Bishop Icrct
ascribcs the distinction in thcnctiyc faith
of the two sexes to what he calls "thc
monstrous pcrvcrsion of Gods gospcl
known ms the revival system" In Other
words, before men can worship God. they
must be worked up to some intense emo.
tionalism. We do not altogether ngrc,
with the conclusions Of the bishop on this
point for while emotion is the charac.

A BOLD, BAD NEGRO.

y. a. Patterson PASSES u Bogus
Order On Mann, Johnson Il Co
Caught Once. But Escapes and
Then Works His Game.

5. A. Patterson is the name of a burly
negro of pleasing address and on Satu ur'
day he came to Ashevile, passed n forged
order on Mann, Johnson g. Co., after the
most approved style of the professional
confidence man, and the authorities
would now like his address.
Patterson had what he claimed to be
an order signed by three Of the committee.
men of school district No. 3 for $75. 1t
stated that he had taught school for two
months and was entitled to that amount
from the treasury. According to the
laws ot the State this paper before it is
cashed must also be signed by the county
superintendent, or in his absence by the
chairman of the county board of educa.
ton. Mr.. J. W. Starncs occupies the
former position and Justice Summey the
latter.
In the morning Patterson appeared
before Mr.. Summcy and stated that Mr..
Starncs was not in his office and asked
him if he would sign the order. 1t APP
pcared to be all right, and as matter
Of accommodation it was signed. The
fellow then went directly to Mimnaugh's
store and asked if he might get bill OF
goods on it. His request was granted
and pulling note book from his pocket
he proceeded to order largely from the
stock. Mr.. Mimnaugh was suspicious
of the paper, and while the fellow was
trading he slipped out and called at Mr.
Starncs' Office. An examination OF the
books failed to find any such names as
were attached to the order, and the two
gentlemen hurried to the store. The tel
low was still trading and when con-
irontcd denied that there was anything
wrong about the paper. He was asked
several questions with regard to the To-
cation OF the district. and his answers
showed him to be lamentablv ignorant
of any OF the surroundings of the place
where he claimed he had taught two
months school.
When asked from whom he had gotten
his certificate he replied that il was from
