The Dedication 2 stponed.

1t has been found impossible to
dedicate the Baptist church this
month, as was first intended. A tele-
gram was received yesterday from the
manufacturers OF the seats. stating
that they Were unavoidably delayed
in making the seats and could not
furnish them as contracted for. The
dedication has consequently been post
poned until the first Sunday in De-
cember.
Rev. Or. Whitman, OF Columbian
University, has found it impossible TO
be here on the date set and another
gentleman will have to be obtained TO
preach the sermon. Just when this
will be, has not yet been decided, but
it is safe to say that one Of the best
preachers in the country will be Sc
cured.

One GOOD RESULT
Which has Followed the Late
Grand Jury's Report.
The Governor Calls the Attention of the
Courts to the Practice Which Is in
Vogue of Compromising Fines by
Payment of the Costs.
CharIeston Gazette.

The indictment of A. S. Blair, late
prosecuting attorney of Kanawha
county, for compromising fines inn
posed by the criminal court for vio-
lations Of the law, and preventing
the State from recovering its fines,
has brought to light the fact that a
similar system exists in many places
throughout the State. 1t is said
that not only in Kanawha, but in
other counties the same system has
been practiced, and not long ago
Judge j. M. Jackson, of the criminal
court of Wood county, had the clerk
make out bills for all the unpaid fines
which had been compromised by the
payment of costs, and directed the
sheriff~to collect them. So prevalent
has been the practice as the Governor
has learned since the grand jury made
its last report, that he has felt called
upon to have the practice stopped, if
possible. To bring the matter Off
cially to the attention of the courts.
the Governor yesterday had the follow.
ing address to the courts, sent to ev-
cry circuit and criminal court Judge
in the State:
Not desiring to be considered as
making a charge of official miscon-
duct against any of the prosecuting
attorneys of our State, yet / deem it
my duty to call your attention to
what | believe to be fact in a great
many Of the counties of the State,
namely:
A large number of fines and fees
of jurors in criminal cases, which
should be collected by prosecuting
attorneys and sheriffs, and turned into
the treasury of the State, for the
purpose of aiding in defraying the
expenses necessary to criminal prose-
BUTTONS. have not been looked after
as they should have been, and in
consequence Of this fact, the State is
losing every year large sum OF money
which justly belongs to it.
/ therefore, write you and urge up
on you the Importance of bringing
the matter to the attention of the
prosecuting attorneys and sheriffs in
your circuit.
l have looked into the matter in
one or more of our large counties,
and | find, as result of such in
vestigatiOn, that the custom is to re-
quire the payment of fees of prose-
cutting attorneys, sheriffs and clerks,
while the fines imposed by the courts
and taxation of injuries have, in a
great many instances, been neglected
and overlooked.
While | do not desire to be considered
as finding fault with court officers in
looking after their own.fees, it seems
to me that they should be required to
also see to it that the State should
have the benefit of the fines and costs.
Please direct capias pro-fnes to
issue in matters of this kind.
Your attention to this matter will
greatly oblige.
Your most obedient servent,
G. w. Atkinson,

Athletictsna in Excess,

Whether at work or at play we ara
always re-crcating-that is to say. we
are rebuilding our bodies out of new
matter. hut in truth we are sti ever
going through aseries of forced marches
ut the end. No one stroke of the heart
is ever recovered, rcgained or as a
stroke repeated. The body is formed
or modelled to do at its full Il certain
number of physical acts and no more.
"There arc three things that come not
back" said the ancient Caliph, 'the
sped arrow, the improper thought and
the spoken word" He might have
added n %fourth-the vital act. No vital
act returns no more than the tick of the
second in the timepiecc. We may make
the vital acts run out in a brief time,
fast! fast! but we can never recall them.
We are the watches of life, with tl.iB
new handspring we must work out the
spring VIC possess. We may run down
almost as quickly as we please. but VIC
cannot renew the prime source of life.
In pleasure, therefore, we do not really
r%e-create; but if we would proceed
properly we transfer action into new
channels and give wearied organs time
to rcst-a change which, in so far as il
affects our nervous ccntcrs, is of cnor-
nous service. because it saves for Il time
responsibility and anxiety. But when
diversion becomes responsible it be-
comes work, it is doing the bad instead
of the best and it may be doing tho
worst; rs when to play a man adds
hazard, or gambling, with all It's tricks
and miseries and early death; or when
in sport, athleticism is, by excess, lead.

1t would seem that in dentistry as
well as in ways that are dark 'the
heather Chinec is peculiar" and in the
| Journal Of the British Dental Associa-
ticn MIR. c. Robbins has communicated
some curious essays on the subject writ
ten in English by Chinese students at
the Angio-Chincse College, Foochow.
They describe in quaint language the
performances of the dentists, who are
usually ilinerants OF thu Sequah order.
They appear to have three methods of
treatment:
/. Extraction, the patients attention
being distracted and his lamentations
overpowcred by the beating OF a loud
gong.
2. The application of arsenic to kill
All exposed pulp.
3. The extra,ion of "tooth worms"
This latter operation usually performed
by women, is very frequently rcsortcd
10, and undoubtedly worms are pro-
ducel from the tooh, as these amateur
dentists adopt the same principle as the
lithotomist in the story-who used al
ways to provide against finding his
diagnosis had been mistaken by taking
a pebble of suitable size in his waist
coat pocket-and themselves Introduce
these worms, which are usually con-
realed under their long linger-nails. A
Chinese student describes The operation
thus 1--WE give his own worlsl:
Now let me advert to the practice of
Rrresting the tooth worms. One Of my
relatives WAS once attacked by n severe
cold. and after the cold was broken up
by restoring activity to his skin he had
u neuralgia which gave him such an in
tense suffering that he could neither
eat nor repose, but moaned with Il voice
SO audible and 81 plaintivc that it sent
u thrill to the heart OF every one in the
house. On the secoud day his suffer-
ing increased to a remarkable degrees;
indeed, it is impossible even at this dis
tant period TO reflect without horror on
the miseries of his %toothachc state. Fin
ally. he submitted 10 the operation OF Il
woman dentist whose agency was To ar
rest tooth worms. Her general oper-
ntion is as follows: A chopstick and a
silver pin are the only instruments She
requires in her normal act. She is will-
ing TO exhibit themto any one who con-
ceives an inclination of discerning her
trickcry. She brings the chopslick in
contact with the disease tooth and
cautiously pokes it through with a pin
in search of the odious worms; after a
while scrapes out u lump OF yellow
minute worms on the chopstick and im-
merscs it in Il cup of water. Each lump
consists of from ten to fifteen worms.
and sometimes two or three hundred
worms arc scraped if the patient makes
an exact bargain at first that the fee
should be betrayed according to the
number Of worms scraped. The gen
eral fee is 400 cash (1s. Gay. and only
the poor may take advantage Of being
in perjury to pay 200 cash.-LondoW
