The News and Observer office Last
night was frightened with beautiful
flowers and the souls of the staff made
to rejoice in the delicious GOODNESS Of
creams and ices-all the gifts of that
thoughtful and noble band of christian
women, the st. Luke's Circle of Kings
Daughters. They held a lawn party last
night at the hospitable home of Mrs
Joseph Blake for the benefit of st. Luke's
Home, and after it was over they re-
member the midnight toilers in the News

men who always think of others and
never of themselves, deserve the aid
and encouragement of the people OF
Raleigh in whatever they undertake.

Mayor Russ Warns all Bicyclists About
Fast Riding.
The Mayor yesterday served notice ON
the bicycle riders that they must keep
their lamps trimmed and burning" and
that 'scorching" will not be tolerated.
This is the law, and it must be observed,
says his Honor.
The immediate occasion for this warn
ing to devotees of the wheel was the APP
pearance of young man in the dock
charged with fast riding at night and
without a lamp. While indulging in this
amusement he ran into Clerk of Court
Young, and came near running over two
little girls.
II have never yet fined a bicyclist,"
said the Mayor, "but this fast riding is
becoming far too common and unless it
is stopped, / shall be compelled to apply
the remedy"

Several more or less dangerous arti-

and storage are imperative, says the
San Francisco Argonaut. Thousands of

VICTORIA WAS CROWNED.

There Have Been Great Social Re-
forms and Wonderful Inventions.
Great social reforms belong to Queen
Victoria's reign, writes William George
Jordan in Ladies' Home Journal, mar
rating the progress of the world since
Queen Victoria assembled the throne
co years ago. The degrading practice
of aogging has been abolished in the
armies and navies of America and Eng
land. Children are no longer permitted
to work in the mines Of Britain. Press
gangs no longer force men into the
service of the queens navy The Red
Cross society, approved by 40 nations
has softened the horror of war. The
transportation Of criminals, with it's
many evils, has been suppressed. Elk
zecutions are no longer conducted in
public. The treatment Of criminals has
become humane. Factory laws and
building acts make life easier for the
poor. LII
Inventive science has made marvellous
progress in every department. during
Victoria's SO years as queen. Cantilever
bridges have surprised the world.
Travel has been wonderfully quickened
by street cars, cabs, trolleys, cable cars,
elevated roads and other triumphs Of
invention. In 1887 there were no type
writer's, no passenger elevators, no mod
crn bicycles, no soda-water fountains,
10: horseless carriages, no chemical fire
s.z1ttingguishers, no ironclads, no perfect
ing presses. Fully chronicling the in
Fentive progress Of the last six decades
would make it seem as il nothing OF
real consequence to mans comfort had
been done before 1887.
