AMONG OUR CHURCHES.
NEW HOPE CHURCH ITEMS.

We are glad to state that we had
very good services all day. Rev.
Price filled the pulpit and preached two
noble sermons, the Holy Spirit was
felt throughout the house. At night
the Holy sacrament was administered.
Collection, $40 90.
The Young Peoples meeting was
well attended. The subject for next
Sunday will be, "Judge not, that We be
not Judged"
Our Sabbath School is still ahead,
scholars present, So, over ten new adj
ditions enlisted, collection 1881. A
class has again taken charge Of the ban
ner by $500; B class; $l.25; G class 81
cents. B class was truly heart broken,
Rev. Price was the sickest man one
ever looked at, when the banner was
taken from his class. AS for Deacon
Hyde, he hardly could speak, he was
so done up, the tears almost rolled
down his cheeks. These two brothers
stand at the head Of B class, they hated
to give the banner up, but they had to
do it as they do not carry elough
change with them. Rev. Price tried
to bluff A class, but he had to eat it
all up, as their teacher is too smart q
man for him (Rev. Price.) In all, our
school is progressi Y wonderfully un-
der the leadership of our worthy super
intendent, B. F. Hill, and teacher,
Jno. E. Lewis. In last issue we stated
tnat we stand second to no other school
i'll the state, this we truly mean, when
in the city come and see lis and be con-
vinced.

lost respectfully dedicated to the memory o
our dear young friend Johnnie Appleton
He has gone up. up into Heaven,
Gone where we meet to part no more:
Gone to the God who has given and taken,
Gone where death comes no more.
HIe has gone where pain cannot reach him,
Where there is no night, but all is day;
He has gone, dear John, our companion,
Hc has gone to his home far away.
He was not one OF Gods chosen children,
But became one ere he passed away;
For he was SO kind and loving,
That he found it easy TO obey.
FDear father we know thou dOst sorrow,
For him whose bright spirit has flown;
He has gone where he knows Of no sorrow.
And is singing the anePs sweet song.
And now that all of him that is earthly,
Is laid in his low narrow bed,
We shall hear it sWeetly uttered
He sieepeth, and is not dead"

tried but failed as usual. During my
stay at this point the s)ibley brothers
took me out driving every afternoon
as they have a fine horse and buggy.
The people here are living we'll, and
many Of them have homes of their
own. The Rev. Cox seems to be the
! right man in the right place, for the
work shows for itself. He has had
the church beautified from the pull
pit to the door and the church is alive
and active. There are two Baptist
churches in this place and they are
both fine churches; but one is with
out pastor, we regret to say. While
in Bonneville, [ could not help from
saying something about the National
Baptist World. [ secured some sub
scribers. | received letter and tel
egram calling me to Sedalia which
caused me to 90 there on Wednesday
the oath. On that and the following
night | tried to preach and was per-
suaded to remain over Sunday by the
officers and members; this disap-
pointed the church at West Point
where [ had been expected. Sedalia
has no pastor but is looking for one
and if they can see the man they
think will lift up the church and
hold it up they will call him and l do
hope they will soon find that man for
the church ought not to be without a
pastor so long. 1t is a fine town with
about $4,000 inhabitants and p or 80
churches and about II schools and
colleges. Rev. Eilonth has built
nice church in the south end of the
town. He is a worker and may the
Lord be with him. There are some
excellent teachers here also / met
Dr. Harris who is said to be the only

me so I did not say much but laid in

NOTES BY THE WAY.

MR.. R:-Please permit me to
say that on the 18th nit. I mounted
the iron horse via the Rock Island
r r. for West Port, Mo. After rid
ing all night | arrived in Kansas City
at a. m. | did not waste any time
around the depot but made my way to
the cable car for West Port. Eleven
o'clock found me at the church to
listen to Rev. W. G. Howell preach,
who took for the theme of his dis
course "The intermediate State of the
Dead" or to show that there was not
a middle ground for the dead, but
they went to their destination at
once, Rev. Howell is fine preach
er and is we'll read and I wish there
were some more Howells. If any
one wants to be treated white let him
90 to Rev. Howell for he delights in
making it pleasant for one. The Rev
erend annonced that the writer would
preach at night and also on Tuesday
night, and when the time came I was
on hand to try but failed as | always
do. During my stay at West Port l
enjoyed myself. The church, pastor
and officers all seem to understand
the workings of the church and they
are going ahead to business. On
Wednesday night the 18th was out
to a marriage at the church and it
was one of the finest / have ever seen
since | have been in the state. The
pastor officiated. On Thursday night
the 18th | was at my old tramping
grounds (Argentine) where | met a
large congregation and | tried to
preached to them and had a good
time. The church at this point is with
out pastor which ought not to be.
On Friday at 10 a. M. pulled out for
Bonneville and reaching Sedalia and
finding that [ had to lay over for an
other train [ went up to Deacon No
lens and took dinner and then took
a birds eye view of the town and at
5 p. m. [ pulled out for Bonneville,
Mo-, getting there at 1870 p. m. AS
soon as landed at the depot found
that the pastor, Rev. NJ. C.. Cox, was
not ia town but had left his brother,
Rev, Alexander, to act in his place.
This put me at standstill as / al
ways love to meet the pastor. | was
then caught up by the Sibley broth
ers (my old friends) who took me
home and made it very pleasant for
me. At II a. m. on Sunday | was
found at the church to hear the Rev.
Alexander preach and while be
preached | enjoyed the sermon. At
ter preaching the Rev. Alexander
said that | would preach at night and
when the time came l was there and
tried to carry out the mandate, 1t
was announced by the officers that
[ would preach again on Tuesday ey-

Poor Me.

The custom of pinning papers on the
clothing of unsuspecting persons forms q
venerable April fool joke. In fact, it is so
time worn and shows so little inventive
ness that one Is occasionally surprised at
finding it still considered funny. Some
times, however, even SO ancient q pleas
antry takes an unexpected turn.
7 A little boy was deftly pinning bit of
paper to an old gentleman's coat when the
latter suddenly turned, saw him, and laid
OBTAINING hand on his shoulder.
"What's that you're DOING" he asked
gruffiy. What are you putting that piece
of paper on my coat for?"
"For-for an April fool, SIR" stammered
the boy, too much confused to evade the
question.
The gentleman suddenly marched him
along to a mirror in a shop window.
There" said he, "look at your own
back"
On the boys jacket was pinned paper
of startling size, which certainly must have
rustled audibly as he walked.
"'Who did l understand you to say was
the April fool?" inquired the gentleman
politely, and the boy opened his lips for one
word, more humble than grammatical,

A Comfortable summer Button.

"The people down around. Cap Cod are
queer characters" remarkedthe woman OF
fashion. 81 went down to South Var.
mouth one day to buy some thread which
l happened to need very badly. There was
only one clerk in the little shop, and he
was busy with a customer. So l had to
wait and, of course, l couldn't help over
hearing the conversation. The customer
was an old woman and she was inspecting
some buttons preparatory to purchase.
She found it hard to decide, and at last
asked me to give my opinion upon three
or four different kinds. told her |
thought certain cloth button was the
prettiest."
"'Waal,' she replied, it be pretty, but

lie Was Not Mean.

We had an hour to wait at railroad
junction in Louisiana, and four or five of
us sat down in the shade on the edge of the
platform and hung our legs over.
While we were talking man with a rope
in his hand, evidently looking for a stray
mule, came out of the bushes opposite us,
and stood looking up and down the track
BY and by he directed his gaze toward
our feet, but we didn't mind him until he
drawled out:
"You all, there!"
"Well?" queried one.
"H'ist up your feet!"
We 'h'isted" without waiting to ask
why, and then looked down to see a big
rattlesnake just coiling himself for a
strike.
A handy grindstone was dropped on the
snake, and when some one thanked the ma
tive he called back:
"Some men who hev lost a mule and
hunted fer him three days would have
been onery about it, but thar's nothin'
mean about meF'-Alhany Argus.
