YEsrERDAY.-Seldom has there been
a more delightful October Sunday than
that of Yesterday. The sun was warm
without being oppressive, while the
hazy appearance of the atmosphere in
Dictated Indian summer. All those re.
lieiously disposed attended church,
while many others enjoyed the line
weather either by remaining on the
streets or by walks or drives in the
country. Others went to Washington,
many enjoyed ride on the electric
cars and numbers of persons visited the
CITY, the streets presentin quite a
animated appearance all day. The
churches at all the services, which
were conducted according to the an;
nouncement made on Saturday, had
large congregations and, it being, the
first Sunday in the month, the holy
communion was administered in many
of them. At night the moon shone
brightly and as the the temperature
continued mild many persons remained
on the streets until late hour. The
day was very orderly one.

ACTING PoL1cEMEN.-Saturday night
Police Commissioner Strauss saw two
men quarrelling on King street and
fearing that the men would become
engaged in a fight blew his police
whistle. The policeman on duty at the
station house mistook the call for the
whistle of yacht on the river and did
not respond. Later Commissioners
Strauss and Lindsey went to the sta
ton house to ascertain why the call
had not been responded to. They were
informed, and also ascertained that as
three of the policemen were off on
their ten days. leave OF. absence, the
force was short that many men. The
two commissioners then directed Capt.
Webster to put on duty the three
readyman, which was done, and now
the readymen are acting as policemen.

mated for the House Of Delegates by
the democrats of Stafford and King
George counties, after sharp contest
with DR.. G. NJ. Wallace.
At Abingdon on Saturday Hon. G. F.
Trigg was nominated by the democrats
to represent Washington county in the
Legislature, along with /. ii. Ingram.
Mr.. Trigg is an ex. Congressman. There

of the county, a split has occurred and
the Independents pledged their sup

urday announced himself an indepen-
dent democratic candidate for the next
house.

nate candidates to represent Loudoun

Saturday. Theodore Gaver was nomi-
mated as delegate and G.. Mason Chi
chester as foater, both of Loudouu.
The democratic candidates are Hon.
John +. Ryan anu MAJ. u. u. datcner.
The Warrenton Firginian in noticing
an article that appeared in the GA
ZETTE recently stating that Judge
Grimsley, of Culpeper, would be a
strong. candidate for Congress from this
district before the next convention, one
of the grounds being that Culpeper had
not been represented in Congress for a
long time, says: He might also have
said that Fauquier feels as if she had
been out in the cold a long time and
that she may possibly have candidate
of her own. Whenever and wherever
there is man wanted Fauquier will
be found modestly leading one of her
sons to the place."
The democrats of Nelson and Am
herst counties have nominated Hon. j..
Thompson Brown for the State Senate.

Open Parliament, Mistakes. Ist
mistakes OF Supenntendents as seen
by teachers, end, Mistakes of teachers
as seen by superintendents 3rd,
Mistakes in the school as seen by the
advanced scholars.
Some mistakes of superintendents
are that they do not begin promptly
and end promptly. They fail to see
the value of time and do not keep the
thing moving from beginning to end.
Superintendents talk their school to
death. They appoint teachers who
are irregular in attendance. They
close their schools during the winter.
They fail to attend the County Con-
vention.
Mistakes of teachers. They are
not present on time they do not pre-
pare the lesson ; they do not visit the
children who are absent stick too
closely to the questions in the lesson
helps, they try to entertain and not
teach, they do not adapt their teaching
to the needs and capacity of the
pupils. These criticisms were present
ed by many different persons and were
all given in the kindest spirit. Prof
c. fl. Albert, who presided as critic,
in reviewing the work said, eff you
were allowed to make an investment
to-day what would you invest in !?
Would it be coal land, stocks, real
estate? The best investment ] know
of is human soul. If God should
grant that l should be the means Of
saving one soul / would be content.
To this end, the salvation of souls,
put forth your best efforts, Teach
simply. Christ spoke to fishermen
about boats, nets and fishes, to farm
ers about seed, the good ground, the
stony ground. Teach earnestly and
prayerfully. Feel your responsibility"
In speaking on How to improve the
Sunday Schools Prof l.. +. Bower,
of Carlisle, impressed upon the work
ers the necessity of realizing that inn
provement in the Sunday Schools de-

FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
Song service was followed with a
Bible Reading by Mrs. T. L. Tomkin-
son, of Berwick. Roll call of schools
in the county followed and delegates
responded with the number of dele
gates and contribution to the county
work. There were SO schools repre-
sented by ISo delegates,
Mrs. Barnes then answered few
questions, in doing which she said,
"Do not call the primary department
the infant class. 1t hurts the feelings
of the little ones. 1t is not necessary
to make social distinctions in the
primary department.
Mr.. A. w. Spear, in speaking of
Bible study, set forth the advantages
of studying it Systematically and urged
upon those present the advisability Of
joining the young peoples Bible Read
ing Union and following out the plan
given by them.
Miss Eva Rupert, of Bloomsburg,
took up the topic "The Home De-
partment." In her talk she said that
since Moses considered it necessary
to teach all the people, and Christ
taught all classes irrespective of race,
age or intelligence, why should not we
teach all, not forgetting those who are
unable to come to the Sunday school
In this class we have invalids, the
lnhrm, the mothers, or any who for
any reason are unable to get out to
the regular meeting of the Sunday
School. The home department pro-
vides especially for this work. Any
one who will receive the quarterly
lesson help and will promise to study
the lesson one.half hour each week
can be member, They have teacher
who calls occasionally to take their
report. In this way persons may be
brought to a knowledge of the Bible
that they would not get, and many
who spend the precious time on Sum-
day reading the Sunday newspapers
might be induced to study the word
of God instead.
