AmeIie Rives' Newsboy.

"There is a young man In Mobile"
said Colonel Robert McEachin of Win
chester, Va, "who has cause to remem-
Der Amelie Rives twice year. When
the now distinguished lady was a little
girl and lived in that city, she became
fondly attached to a newsboy who cried
out his papers every morning in the
neighborhood in which she lived. She
met him one day and friendship sprang
up between them that has lasted to the
present time, After the boys stock Of
papers were sold in the morning he would
call for the pretty little blue eyed miss,
and they would take long strolls down
Prosecute road, plucking the orange bios
SONS and the magnolia blooms. They
soon got to be familiar figures on Gov
eminent street, as they would walk
along that busy thoroughfare with the
young girls head garlanded with wreaths
of beautiful flowers and the little boys
arms filed with vines and evergreens.
Then Miss Rives moved far away into Vir-
ginia but she never forgot her newsboy
friend, for it was her custom almost
daily to write him. The boy met with a
misfortune some years ago which Grip
pied him for life. He is poor, but his
purse is twice year replenished by a
postoffice order from Mrs. Chanler. One
of these arrives in Mobile on his birth
day, which is in June, and the other on
Christmas day. st. Louis Republic.

THE publisher of the Peninsula
Methodist considers the resuscitation of
the Conference Herald under the na-
tronage of the Presiding Elders of the
three lower Districts and changing the
location of the paper from Dover to
Harrington, as renewal of the strife
that agitated the Conference two wears
ago very much to its injury. The
editor says this new movement is evil
dent to every candid and intelligent
reader, whether to introduce Clerical
politics, " furnish combine of three
elders against one or political organ
on temperance lines, that strife will
inevitably result from the enterprise.
and sooner than this shall be with an
attempt to run two papers in a terri.
tory that can avail subscribers for the
support of only one, that it will be
better for the new concern to organize

united in marriage by Rev. VIM, r.

BY the published reports of the Su-
perioI Court in Wilmington last week
1t is evident that Associate Justice
Grubb does not have the same full
hand as formerly in dispensing licen.
ses, but that Chief Justice Lore has
some influence with the Court in re-
straining the lavish dispensing of
saloon licenses, even in the face of
strong remonstrances. Only one new
application was granted while number
of old established places were turned
down. The total number of cases in
which remOnstrances were filed WAS Is.
Out of this number there were but five
licenses granted. This was the biggest
kind of surprise to applicants and their
lawyers, says Wilmington paper, as it
was not generally expected that so
large a number of saloons would be re.
fused license.

The Chicagoans have won bv bad
faith with the Government and
through the decision last week of the
court of Appeals, in having the fair
opened on Sundays. The last resort
OF those in favor of upholding an
American Sabbath is the Supreme
Court. which does not sit again until
the fair is nearly over. 1t remains to
be seen whether in the attempt to Eu.
ropeanize our institutions at the ex.
pense of candor and morality they
have gained anything. The Sunday
attendance is not at all up to their ex-
pectation, and many thousands be-
cause of the bad faith that has been
