School and the Church.

Joining. The first speaker of the evening
was Rev. Mr.. Deatrick, who spoke OF The
School and the Family
He told OF the great benefits resulting
to the entire household In families where
the children were constant attendants at
Sabbath school The little ones were
brought into contact with their playmates
under the Christian influence of their teach
ers and their growing minds made to com
prehend the greatness of God. Mr.. Deatrick
spoke OF the value OF forming the habit
OF attending Sunday school In early youth
and then there would be no difficulty in
later years and the duty would not seem
irkSome. He said that on Sunday morn
ing the best place for a child was In the
house Of God, where their minds could be
trained in the ways of righteousness; and
that those who were not taught to go
found the time usually spent in the day

schools hung heavily on their hands.
As illustrating the fact that the sunday
school broadened q child's mind and gave
it better understanding of this world,
as well as the next, he told the story OF a
little boy, born in Ohio, who had never
been to Sunday -schooi, and had grown up
without the knowledge Of many things
which most children know at an early
age. When the boy was in his early
teens, his parents paid visit 10 Cinctn-
matt and took him along. He was very
much impressed 10y the buildings and the
hurrying crowds OF people and the rush
and hustle of it all. By and by his father
took him down to the river front, and he
looked across at Coyington, KY, and then
turned to his father and said:
Father, is all that over there real?
Eyes, my son. replied the parent.
We'll, How much larger is the world,
anyway" asked the boy

NOMEN AND TROUSERS.

n T IS well known that the French
government has occasionally con :
ferred on women the right to wear
trousers. Rosa Bonheur has the right; so
has Nine Dienlojoy, the explorer. The
third is a woman souemaSon, who finds
1t necessary to her business. 1t would be
interesting to know if the French govern
ment might not have found the request
OF Miss Hattie Wilcox the other day TO
wear trousers more reasonable than did the
chief of police OF Bridgeport, Conn. The
Young woman, who proves to be Miss
Flea Kissing of Walnut Beach, having
adopted thename of Hattie WilCoXasa nom
de guerre," wanted TO keep tab on her young
man. Such a plan would doubtless have
appealed TO the Gallo mind. Miss Kissing
said when asked about her motive:
Il am in love with q gentleman who
wants to marry me, aud you know that
one who is in love doesn't know the
best course 10 pursue. l lave, rear, been
foolish, but am so anxious 10 know If my
dear Harry is always true to me. want
only to satisfy myself, aud how could do
it better than to wear mems clothes?

was love at first sight with both OF us.
am greatly distressed that this simple re-
quest has got in the horrid papers, and
now l will not dare 10 put on trousers I'M
til l see what my aunt says about 1t"
She positively refused to answer what
her future intentions would be. but seemed
to think well OF he twentieth century
girls views and ideas. She is medium
height, OF rather slight but graceful figure.

ately after this interview to see her aunt
and to avoid all publicity.

ALL BONNETS ARE MINCED.

G=LARING wing effects are stilla dom
- inant characteristic of spring mil
III Iinery. but are somewhat modified
in their spreading width upon the head.
The great diameter OF the hats OF seasons
past was designed to offset the broad eff
feet OF the shoulders, and as this has been
reduced, the hats are modified accordingly;
but the effect is still broad, and rather low
from side to side. This manner OF trim
ming is. however, far more becoming to the
faces of slender women than to either round
or oval countenances. The Corday bonnet.
the Marie Stuart, and the capote with high
aigrette effects toward the front. are far
more complimentary to faces of the latter
type.

BEFORE THEY ARE TAUGHT.

IT IS undoubtedly n temptation to am
bilious girls, especially TO those who
do not like to study, to forego the
course in the training school and enter at
once on the career of teaching. The idea
of earning money and escaping the discipline
of the schoolroom frequently outweighs the
chance of fitting oneself thoroughly for a
profession which all right-minded men and
women regard as one Of the noblest IN The
world.
DR.. Burrell, in an address to graduates
short time ago, said: Don't be IN hurry.
The world will wait for you" Every year
the standards are being raised, and your
principal chance OF success lies In learning
all you can about the work which you are

At beautiful lakewood cemetery in
the next few weeks many improve
ments will be made; among them, the
building Of a handsome brown-stone
vault, 14X16; the lake formerly oc-
cupying the eastern section will be re-
placed; many shade trees of rare
beauty will be set out and every effort
of DIR. r. TT. Lewis, chairman of the
committee on grounds and lots, will be
eXerted to add to the picteresqueness
and beauty of the cemetery.
The contract for building the vault
was yesterday let to Cooper Bros, of
this city, who promise that there shall
be no disappointment and it will surely
be a thing of beauty. 1t has been
plainly shown that there is an urgent
need Of such a structure and yesterday
the directors, r. II. Battle, president;
w. II. Dodd, secretary; w. G. Stronach,
j. r. Ferrall, VIM. Grimes, G. ID. Heartt,

people Of his county were terribly in
earnest on the silver question. They
were in favor of that above everything
else, and he could not for the life of

that 1t was either good policy or good
principle to vote with the goldbug
Republicans on one-half Of the ticket.
md vote against them on the other. He
declared that he and his Populist
friends in Catawba county left the
Democratic party rather than vote for
a goldbug, Cleveland, and now il they
turned around in the very next campaign
and decided to vote with the professeI
goldbugs of the country, the Repubii-
cans, he did not see for the life OF him
how he could explain such political
gymnastics to his people. However.
he wanted fusion if it could be salts
factorily arranged without sacrifice If
principle.
There was much more along this
same line, but throughout it all there
Was NOT man that did not flavor

AHd this is the riddle that the Sphynx
Popu'sfo will to-day PROFOUND to Re-
pubitcaf n: How can fusion be ar
ranged without sacrifice Of principle
and Of Office. If Mr.. Holton and his
crowd can answer that, fusion is as
sured; if not, then taare will probably
be fusion anyway-at least so far as
the leaders are concerned.
But for the rank and file, those who
think there is still little principle left
in politics, and who love the silver
cause, for which they arepfghlinq. Eat-
ter than they do office, this arrange
ment will be anything but palatable.
and there viii be a mighty kicking in
the land. Some of them are terribly i'm

they can be driven about BY every wind
Of doctrine and delivered like cattle by
their leaders into the hands Of the gold
