Resignation of D.. Halves.

On Sunday morning last, after service, q
congregational meeting was held to receive
the resignation of the pastor, Rev. Dr.. II.
II. Halves, of which they had been notified
by him the week previous. The urgent
persistence of the committee OF the Vlr-
ginia Synod in its efforts to secure the SER
vices of DR.. Halves for evangelistic work
in the State, Notwithstanding the fact that
he had declined two OF three of their propo-
sltions. had prepared the little congregation
of the Second Presbyterian church to hear
that the committee had made all offer
with the advantages of which, from
many points of view, they were I'M
able to compete. There was the deepest
regret expressed by those who spoke in the
congregational meeting-Maj. Jed. Hotch-
kiss, j. Fred. Effinger, H. w. Henry, B.
F. Hughes and J. T. Lightner- the sep
aration, but under all the circumstances it
seemed to be the opinion that justice to
DR.. III. himself required that the congrega-
ton should make no opposition. One of
the most touching tributes to DR.. Halves
popularity was paid by MI. s. Brown
Allen, who though not 4 member of the
church, spoke with earnestness and elo-
quence of the loss that he and his should
sustain in DR.. Halves departure. The con-
gregation appointed Messrs. N. e. Kester,
Jed. Hotchkiss and III. w. Henry to rep
resent it before Lexington Presbytery and
give it's consent to DR.. H. S acceptance of
the call.
DR.. Halves was given by the Synodical
Committee his choice between the Abing-
don Presbytery field with headquarters at
Radford, OIL the Hanover Presbytery field,
and chose the former. He left for Rich
mond Monday moving. The Elkton In
lex speaking of the selection of DR.. Halves
by the Synodical Committee, says:
Rev. Dr. II. H. Halves, of Staunton, has
announced his intention to resign his pastO-
rate of the Second Presbyterian Church, Of
Staunton, to engage in home mission work.
DR.. Hawse is one of the foremost pulpit ora
tors of the State, and is recognized as lead
should enter the home mission field is evil
dence OF the great need there is for the best
men to labor among those who have been
neglected, but whose Christian education is
vital to the true prosperity of the State. Gen
orally the best talent is sent to the cities
while rural districts have to put up with
what they can get. 1t is healthy Christian
sign to see this order reversed, even in a small
degree.

A Night Railroad between Sraunton
and Monterey.

Below we give very unusual railroad
proposition which we find addressed TO and
published by the editor Of the Highland
Recorder, over the signature of ''W. A.
RI:
mir. EDITOR "A proposal will be made
to the people of Highland and Augusta coun-
ties to lay down a standard gauge railroad
track on the bed of the Staunton and Parkers-
burg turnpike from an accessible point on the
B. d o. OF 9. & 0. Railway at or near Staunton,
Va, and pass engines and cars from the ter
minal points over said road for II hours of
the "a each day, the time occupied to be from
p m. until a. M, leaving IL hours for the
exclusive rights OF the people. In considera-
ton of the privilege to use said road bed, the
company making the proposal will agree and
bind itself and assigns to construct such road
and lay the track in such manner that it
shall in no way interfere with the rights OF a
travelling public on public highway. That
the track shall be completely surfaced up;
all the ties or wo0d-sleepers to be entirely
beneath the surface of the roadway and such
surface to be kept within one inch of the top
of the rails of the track. That the company
will agree and bind itself and successors to
put in good condition and maintain between
the terminal points of said road at the compa-
ny's expense SO long as the franchise endures
if it is granted.
They Will also bind themselves to keep said
road in the best condition for the public use
at the companys expense, free from toll or
any expense to the people.
They will also agree to adopt such further
precautions as shall insure and promote the
convenience and safety of the public as we'll
insure their benefit.
The capacities of this road will be kept up
to the demands of the public. If the mine
rails are found to exist in such quantities as to
justify 20 trains per night they will be sup
piled. Ample preparations will be made to
remove the timber, tan bark, cattle, sheep
and every product of the people at standard
rates.
All that is. OF will be asked is the right of
way, as aforesaid, with what ground addi-
tional to the road bed that may be necessary
for the successful working of the road. This
additional ground would be paid for at reas-
enable rates.

The leading actor in this cast, MI. Mac
Lean, is q talented man in more respects
than one. The son of a wealthy Virgin
ian, to whose wealth he has just succeeded,
he was educated at Washington and Lee
University. He adopted the stage because
his talent lay that way, and it is due him
to say that in the selection of his plays, in
the selection of his companies, and in every
practicable way he has sought to elevate the
calling he has chosen. An artist of ability
himself, he has sought to strengthen his
claims on the public by surrounding him.
self with good list of supporting people.
1t is probable that tonight, taking the play
at every point, our people will see it given,
not only as they have never seen it before,
but as they are not likely to see 1t again
save by the same organization.

Romeo and Juliet Tonight.

While Staunton has no cause to COM
plain OF the scarcity of amusements at the
Opera House, it cannot boast of having
Shakespere's plays presented often. The
great bulk of what our people see in the
way of the drama is composed of operatic
skits, with here and there a standard
melodrama. The bill for tonight will
therefore be the more welcome. 1t is true
that ''all the world loves lover" and it is
equally true that all healthy minds find in
Romeo and Juliet either what they have
been, OIL what they are, OF what they will be
in the matter of the affections. 1t is a
mirror rejecting that touch of nature that
makes all akin. The presentation tonight
ought to be Of the very best. That they
intend to make it the very best, we infer
from MI. Mclean giving up the lovers
part of Romeo, SO popular but so easy of
rendition, and taking that of the light
hearted Mercutio. The Romeo of the even
ing is Mr.. Hart. The Juliet is Marie
Prescott. all announcement to which one
does not have to add good word. The fol-

How Jockeys Train.

1t is no wonder that so many Jockeys die
young or that their faces have pinched
and tortured look. saw one of the boys
come out of the Morris park track stables
few days ago after undergoing Newman
ket sweat. He was the most pitiable OBJ
ject have seen for many day. He was a
big boned lad, and he had attempted to
take off seven pounds from an already
overturned body in two days. He failed
by a pound, and he cried like a child
in his grief. Perhaps the tears were due
more to the nervousness of an overweight
frame than to anything else, however He
had slept only seven hours out of forty
eight, and he had taken three Russian
baths in that time. He had remained in
the baths from two to three hours on each
of these occasions, had drank no liquids
except a little lime juice and seltzer, and
had starved himself cruelty.
On the final morning he had put on a lot
of heavy clothes, including a thick pea
jacket, and taking hold of the tailboard of
an express wagon, which was used for
carting supplies to and from the village
had run five miles in the dusty road hang
ing on to the end of the wagon. The horse
moved at a brisk trot, so that the boy had
to do some hard running. When he got
back to the stable he was bundled up I'M
der heavy blankets, with all his clothes
and even his hat still on. He drank a hot
lemonade and lay there for half an hour.
When they pulled the blankets off they
were almost saturated with moisture. The
lad was rubbed down with cold water, and
then, weak and faint, with his face horri-
bly, drawn up, he went on the scales He
was still too heavy to ride and all his tor
ture was in Blakely Hall in Brook

Tact of Society Leaders.

Society leaders are the most wonderful
women in the world, though they are usu-
ally accounted among the idle and worth
less butterflies of life But every one of
their extravagant little whims and likings
gives to the great army of workers i'm
petus in designing and perfecting the vari-
Gus handicrafts and employment in carry
ing out the designs. But the remarkable
thing about this species of woman is not
what she wears or what she does. but what
she remembers.
In the first place, she invariably remem-
bers your name, and your hobby, if you
have one, asks after your last book or pic
ture or poem, your sick baby, your govt
or your religion, your new bonnet or but
ler She doesn't care pin about it, but it
aatters you, and you like it. And how she
can retain and call up at the proper mo-
ment your particular name, face and in
terest, and never ask the emancipated wom-
an how her baby is, or the poet about his
painting, is the remarkable part, particu-
larly when she does it with no apparent
effort, and never seems to think of any
thing at all with the frothy brain beneath
her stylish bonnet. ''The great secret of
social success is to hurt no ones self love"
and it is great art, and the woman who
excels in it lacks neither intelligence nor
genius.-Exchange.
