THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL

The bill Of Representative Morris
amending the Civil Rights Act,
nassed the Senate Wednesday by Q
vote Of 32 to 5 in favor OF its pass
ace. All the Republicans voting
far the bill. while many democrats
refused to vote. This is the bill,
which has been discussed several
times in our columns the passage
of which we have vigorously y advo-
Gated. We have heretofore pub
lished the bill in full, consequently
there is no necessity for discussing

main features are that it gives JUS

sue for larger amount In the up

The Story of How Breakfastless Artists

He happened one day to take In Pres.

he rang for his breakfast-once, twice,
but no answer came. Again he pulled
the bell, and again, with the same re

He was very angry at this inattentior
to his comforts, which is not uncom

passed an open door, when 10! what

fiercely scrubbing a very dirty boy, wht

"Drat the boy!" said the old lady
"stand still, do; will he never com

It is conceded that men admire fine

Of physical beauty under our breath.

Muldoon, the athlete, took the part

God forever. Your way may wind along
dangerous bride paths, and amid VOLTS
howl and the scream Of the yulture, but
the way still winds upward till angels
guard it, and trees Of life overarch it,
and thrones line it, and crystalline
fountains leap on it, and the pathway
ends at gates that are pearl, and streets
that are gold, and temples that are al
ways open, and hills that quake with
perpetual song, and city mingling for
every Sabbath, and jubilee, and tri-
umph and coronation.
Let pleasure chant her siren song,
IT'S not the song for me;
To weeping it will turn ERE long,
For this is Heavens decree.
But there's a song the ransomed sing,
To Jesus their exalted King,
With joyful heart and tongue,
Oh, that's the song for me!
Courage, brotherl The father does
not give his son at school enough money
to hast him several years, but, as the
bills for tuition and board, and clothing

will not,give you grace all at once for
the future, but will meet all your ext
gencies as they come. Through earn
est prayer, trust Him. Put every thing
in Gods hand, and leave it there.

Tempt No. the Weak Brother.

Students of mental and moral phi
loSophy tell us there are some weak
natures with tendency 10 the sensual,
who cannot look upon many of the most
famous works of art without Injury to
themselves. Even the sight of one of
the opposite sex in unusual attire is to
such natures provOcation tending to de-
moralize. 1t seems from last weeks En-
sign that our esteemed friend, Bro. Cline
il afflicted in this way. The English
Girls" whose show bills effected him
very strongly, appeared at the opera
house last Saturday night. They wore
the style Of garments usually affected by
the moro decorous class Of variety &C.
tresses-close fitting, Of unique design
and colors, bat more ample covering
than many ball costumes put up BY
worth for ladies ranking high in social
circles. No one not subject to the Pc

while the world stand. Considering the
besettinG weakness Of our friend, the
Esaes man, We believe . Erievous
wrong has been done him BY posting
those show bills al around bis lurking
place. Men Of his temperament should
be pitied rather than censured. He has
not the cospse-like coldness Of the '.Boos
Hin Cadaver'' to protect him. Il there
fore becames the duty Of every good cid
zen to see that Mr.. Cline Is not again sub
jected to display which Il frequently
repeated, may drive . good and honored
citizen into forbidden paths. Manages
Pearce did a christian act in refusing
complimentaries in this case, and We are
glad to know that Brother Cline has
adopted the heroic resolution not to
be induced hereafter to put himself in the
way Of that which is to him so great Z
temptation. The city fathers should CO.
operate with him in these good resolu
tons by passing an order that no theatri-
cal bills be posted where they are likely
TO meet his gaze and thus again renew
his longing for the unattainable.
