Fears
Soap

What is wanted of
soap for the skin is to
wash it clean and not
hurt it. Pure soap does
that. This is why we
want pure soap; and,
when we say pure, we
mean without alkali.
Pears is, pure; no al
kali in it; no free alkali.
There are a thousand
virtues of soap; this one
is enough. You can trust
a soap that has no biting
alkali in it.
ALI sorts of stores sell
it, especially druggists;
all sorts of people use it.

LITTLE HUNTING CREEK.-Iester-
day was a bright summer day, aud the
resort recently fixed up at Little Hunt
ing creek was visited By swarms of PEG
pie. The electric cars were kept going
all day and long into the night in ac-
commodating visitors. In order TO keep
off what it was feared would prove a
disorderly colored element from Wash
ington, the cars did not stop at ColIing-
wood Beach nor within two stations ON
either side of that resort. As stated
Saturday, Little Hunting creek IS q
pleasant place and is growing in popu-
lar favor, and it being private property:
no improper persons are to be allowed
to land there. The Second Presbyterian
Church Sunday school will go there
next week, and it vii! no doubt soon
become the most favored excursion
ground hereabouts.

A Practical JOKER CAuGHT.-Con-
siderable complaint has been made late
" of the pranks of practical jokers who
mid the witching hour of night mix up
signs on the streets, often placing bread
signs in front OF churches, harbers poles
opposite grocers' establishments, etc.
Between y and / o'clock Saturday
night colored barber was seen by the
police in the act ofremovinS Q bread box
from King street store to nelghnor-
ing house, when Officer George GrumP
Jug and took the practical joker in
charge. He protested he was only fun
ming which excuse failed to satisfy the
officer and the barber was locked up
This morning Mayor Strauss fined him
81 and warned him of the consequences
which would follow repetition OF his
otiense.

FINED FOR SELLING LIQUOR
Among the cases before the Mayor this
morning was that of middle-aged
co!ored woman, charged by another col
cred woman with selling liquor OH sun
day and without license. 1t seems
that the complainant had been lodging
ut the house Of the accused, and having
had dispute with her in regard 10 a
lodging aud lunch bill had concluded
10 inform on her hostess, who
keeps cheap lunch house where 1t has
been supposed nothing more eXhilarat-
ing than pop, ginger ale and lemonade
are dispensed; but the evidence showed
that on yesterday week an old coiored
woman replenisned her task at tins
innocent lunch counter. The Mayor
fined the accused 80 for selling liquor
on Sunday and So for conducting bust
ness without a license. One OF the
woman's daughters and another young
colored woman wanted TO kiss stack
of Bibles as high rs ~ house in assevera-
ton of the innocence of the defendant,
but the evidence showed they were
both present when the law was violated
and assisted in waiting on the customer
They were told that should they act
the part Of false witnesses again they
would be sent on the grand jury from
whose hands they might land in the
penitentiary. 1t is said that most OF
the drunkenness on the street on sun
days is caused by liquor purchased
from these "luuch" houses. the large
and well-known barrooms being closed.
The police have theireyes On a number
of other suspicious places.

SUNDAY TRAFFIC.-In the course
of Rev. DR.. Suffers sermon in Christ
Church yesterday morning on the text
"The cares of this world and the de-
ceitfulness of riches choke the word"
the reverend gentleman alluded to the
human slavery enacted in this day and
generation by the running of cars and
boats every dayin the week thus keeping
people necessarily employed until they
become as machines in the hands of
soulless corporations. He referred
pointedly to the excursion steamers
and trains which make Sunday sort
of harvest day, and to the innumera-
bic hosts OF people who by their exam
pie are aiding in making the Sabbath
anything else than a day Of rest or
one for worship.

the aforesaid date, and while attending
a funeral, some one entered her house
and stole therefrom some silverware,
wedding presents, &C., and the money
which she had left at home-upwards
