Not Merited.

The World. severely criticises the
City Band because the Friday evening
concert was omitted last week. To
our mind the World does the band an
injustice. Those concerts are yolun-
tary on the part of the band and while
appreciated by the public cost nothing.
For this reason, if no other, to accom-
pany the criticism with a threat is
rather far fetched
OF course it is a pleasure for the
band to practice for the concerts when
the temperature is up in the COS, and
every member should make it point
to be here every Friday evening for
the special delectation of the World
no matter what his business engage
ments.
On the evening in question three
members of the band were absent
from the city, two of whom are altos,
the other the snare drummer Two
others were unable to turn out because
of rush work in the shops in which
they are employed, and another had
at about S p. III. of that evening been
presented by his wife with his first
bona son. We believe the exact
ing editor of the World. had he been
a member of the band, would have de-
cided that it was ''too hot, knowing,
as we do his aversion to heat.

Sabbath Dissertation.

The practice of young men an d
boys going out into the fields to play
ball, gamble, drink whisky, and de-
bauch generally on the Sabbath day
is most reprehensible and should be
stopped.
1t is sometimes necessary to protect
young men from themselves and by
reason of their conduct it is absolute
ly imperative that the boys should be
saved before they become totally ruin
ed.
Parents should know at all times
where their boys are, especially on
Sunday, and we insist that Martins
burg parents give this their serious
attention. Many of these violators
of the Sabbath are sons of Christian
parents and some of them are mem
bers of the Sunday Schools. If this
warning is not needed the law may
be invoked. If it should be many a
mothers heart will be made to ache.

GEORGE E. WELSHANS

Died Sept. 6, 1895. aged ~ years, 4
months, and 10 days.
Below is portion of letter writ
ten by George Welshans, while at
school, to his parents. After an af-
fectionate reference to his parents and
sisters, he speaks of his pleasant room
at school and then adds:
but this is not home; | love my
home more than l ever did before.
But believe it is the will Of Christ
that I should leave those things which
are so dear to me-not forsake them,
but leave them for little while-to
prepare for the great work of life.
And, O, the consolation | get from
the nineteenth chapter of Matthew
and twenty-ninth verse. Lord Jesus
look down from thy throne in the
skies, and help me to make complete
sacrifice. When we have all finished
our work here. when we have become
a united family in heaven, what a
grand meeting that will be-never TO
part any more, with the blessed Savior
to wipe all tears from our eyes. Glory
to His name! Yes; follow, follow. /

He's q Back Number.

We heard disparaging remark
about the "bloomer' girl by one of
our young men the other evening that
was, perhaps. well meant, but we
could not help but think he had spent
most of his days in our quiet little
town, as while he disapproved of the
cycling garb. five hundred approved
of it. So his opinion is without
weight and the costume will be worn
just the same by hundreds of our best
born and sensible young ladies. If a
woman means to ride wheel, then
she ought to have suitable costume,
and where will she find anything
more suitable than the bloomer dress?
Half Of the people who make those
remarks never saw the gsrb. They
imagine it is a pair of tight-ftting
trousers, poor souls They have
been hurled at by various 'prudes"
and the woman, brave and daring,
has become tired of such nonsense.
One of the best-known cycling outfit
tiers in Washington says a pistol
pocket is now added to her cloth-de-
vouring garb, and she carries real
hurler in it.
This fad is confined not only to
few, but most of the wheelesses carry
one on account of ruffians they are IL
able to encounter. Now when the
pistol practice becomes part and par
eel Of the wheeling course, which is
very probable, those who poke fun at
the cyclines in "knicks'' will take
desperate chances. Although some
of the men who try to be funny say it
has been demonstrated that woman
can fire bullet straighter than she
can throw a stone had better keep
quiet, for the bloomerite is here to
stay, and we approve of her good
sense displayed in the wearing of that
in which she is most comfortable and
which is best adapted to her wheel
Men wear the 'knicks" and why do
they appear so silly as to disapprove
of her comfort?
