from st. Luke, XIV, .: This man re-

The preacher said the words OF the

Nisltsts who go to the grounds over
the Wilmington and Northern Rail
road, complain of the stencil which
arises from the "piggeryr which is
situated Mt SilverVrook. This filthy
spot IL not only menace to passen-
gers. but also TO those citizens who re-
side In that community The Board
of Health should look into this nui-
sance. OF cholera may make its appear
auce here before long.

AloJK AHEAD.
1t is not at all certain that DR.. Hub
lard will accept tho call to the church
in Baltimore which was spoken OF
few days ago. There is, to say the least,
some uncertainty about the matter.
Should the pastor OF the church In
question be transferred to tho Allie
gheuy Conference tho way will he
open, but otherwise there Will be no
vacancy Then IL Dr. Hubbard shall
be transferred to the Maryland Con
ference lie may he given the appoint
ment. Whether IL will be wise to
make this change Is an open question.
He has done good work at Union
Church. and his usefulness there has
not been exhausted. Under his minis
ship have been augmented. the penny
collections have steadily increased and
the finances were never in better shape,
Notwithstanding the heavy eNpendi.
lures which have been made for the
improvement OF the church. the pur-
chase of u now organ and the addition
to his SALARY. which has been promptly
met Unless his field of usefulness
can be greatly enlarged by this trans.
fer he should remain in his present
plstorate for another year at least, in
with tho dcsirs of the con
greRntion as expressed through the
Official board.
WORTHY or ENCOURAGEMENT.
The presence OF Rev. j. b, QulgR
and family at the camp has led to
some inquiry on tho part OF some
persons in regard to the financial con-
ditlon of Wesley Church, as IL is in
location that renders it among the
weakest In our city. and now that so
many men are out of work the con
gIegatiun and the collections also have
been SO greatly depleted that the
preacher must 10 very much embar-
rassed through inability to secure his
salary or sufficient part thereof to
meet current expenses. The more
atlluent members OF the other Meth.
odlst churches should Therefore OK
tend a helping hand and assist in re-
lievinE the little sister and her pastor
until times shall improve and pros
poiity shall again bless our city. 1t is
well to remember that tho liberal
hund maketh rich.

the comments frequently made IN re.
