Lecture and Entertainment at Hender-
son Female College.

Quite crowd gathered in the school
room of the Henderson Female College
last Friday night to hear the lecture of
Mr.. Il. II. Hicks upon "SchOOl days"
Those who had heard him on similar
occasion speak about "Rules" were con-
tident Of beng both entertained and in
structed. His "reminiscences of his own
school days were very amusing, while
his advice to the pupils, to spend profit
ably those days, the most important OF
all days, Wa very impressive. His re-
marks We're we'll calculated to arouse
their aspirations and stimulate their
zeal for all that is pure and noble in life.
Upon the walls OF the room we noticed
a number OF very fine oil paintings and
many excellent crayon pictures aud we
were surprised to learn that all of them
were the work of the pupils during the
session. The query (which has the
greater charms: music or painting?' was
ably discussed by four of the young Ia
dies. The following programme of
music and Rotations WAS admirably
rendered by the pupils:

A Small Boys Composition.

We are not going to call any names
but there is young lady in town who
has been ambitious to prepare herself
for the work of teaching school. Hav
ing finished her own studies, rather
than be idle and for the purpose of
p-ofiting by the practice and expert
ence thus gained she concluded to
begin by teaching the younger men,
bers of the family. And that she has
done well we are quite certain but it is
apprehended that her aspirations have
been dissipated, andall because of a
composition her younger brother wrote.
His first effort was fairly satisfactory
to himself and when some time later
he was told to write another compo-
sition he selected the same subject.
But the young school ma am objected
and demanded that he write about
something else. After puzzling over
the matter for some time, chewing up
half of his pencil, starting on numerous
themes and wasting quantity of
paper, finally the young essayist was
heard to say ''I'll fix her, and labor
ing long and earnestly the following
was evolved from his brain:

Stole a Horse and Buggy,

Mr.. w. II. Whitaker, near Stem,
had a negro boy about II years old
working with him on the farm, and on
Su lday night Texas Marrable, THAT is
the name of the boy,) concluded he
would like to take trip to Henderson
to see his aunt, so about L O'Clock he
slipped to the stables and hitched up
M. Whitaker's horse to the buggy and
put out. He passed through Oxford
about day light and was seen by few
early risers.
Mr.. Whitaker secured the services
of Chief Rem and arrested the boy in
Henderson. He was brought back to
Oxford and had trial before S. V.
Ellis, J. p, who sent him on to the
grand iury.-Oxford Public Ledger.
Some time last winter this boy who
had been working for Mr.. r. r. Satter-
white, of Henderson. stole one of his
horses and rode him to Raleigh where
he turned him loose and fed. Mr..
Satterwhite tracked the thief to Raj
eigh and secured his horse but the boy
made his escape.

And She Believed 1t.

The Raleigh Times tells the following
good story: IAN old lady from the
county, who was in town on Saturday,
con fided to friend that she thought it
was perfectly awful the way Raleigh
men did their wives. When questioned
as to her reason for such an opinion,
she said that up by the capital there
was big brick house with Woman
Exchange" on the sign i'll front. Not
knowing what it meant. she got gen.
tleman who was passing to tell her, and
he said when Raleigh men got tired OF
their wives they went up there and
exchanged them

1t is more widespread than any other
disease, and very nearly, more danger
Gus.
One thing that makes it so dangerous
is that it is so little understood.
If it were better understood, it would
be more feared, more easily cured, less
universal than it is now.
SO, those who wish to be cured. take

to the root of the trouble as 10 other

ONE IN EVERY FOUR
One Person i'm Every Four suffers
from Piles.

About one person in every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease. The most
common and annoying is itching piles, ind-
Gated by warmth, slight moisture and in
tense, uncomfortable itching in the parts af-
fected.
+ The usual treatment has been some sim
pie ointment salve. which sometimes
give temporary relief. but nothing like
permanent cure can be expected from such
superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching piles
yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure,
not only for itching piles, but for every
other form of piles, blind. bleeding or pro-
truding. The first application gives instant
relief and the continued use for short
time causes permanent removal of the
tumors or the small parasites which cause
the intense itching and discomfort of itch
ing piles.
Many physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief afforded
by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it
was supposed to contain cocaine. opium or
similar drugs, but such is not the case. A
recent careful analysis of the remedy
showed it to be absolutely free from any
cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous,
injurious drugs whatever. Sold by drug
gists at so cents per package

THE TWO MADAME YALES
ORIGINAL TRIES TO GET AN INJUNC-
TION AGAINST THE IMITAToR.
Both Are Lecturing on the Virtues of
Certain Face Articles-Red
Slayer Arraigned.

There is trouble among the women who
succeed in making the credulous members
of their sex believe that they can make
themselves more beautiful by the applica-
ton of various skin washes. hair washes,
beauty soaps, etc. Maud Myberg, of Chi
cago, extensively known throughout the
country as Madame NJ Yale yesterday
an injunction against some Indianapolis peo-
pie who, she declares. are trying to steal
her great name and deceive the public into
the belief that the lotions and things they
are putting upon the market are her goods.
She describes the defendants as Mary Long,
formerly Mary Craig, later Mary Andrews,
and now. as she believes. the wife of Henry
Long, II. B. F. Christion and Henry Long.
Miss Meyberg shows that she has regis
tered the Yale trade mark and declares
that she has lectured to women all over the
country and expended about 100000 since
1890 in advertising her various toilet
preparations and has thus worked up for
them a great sale and high reputation She
declares that last month the defendants
fixed up a conspiracy to initiate her goods
upon the market and for this purpose Mrs.
Long calls herself Madame Louise Yale"
She has been delivering lectures under this
name in Illinois and holding consultations
and receptions just like the original. Miss
Meyberg asks tor damages in the sum of
100000 and that an injunction may issue to
prevent Mrs. Long from putting her
preparations out under the name of Yale"

Poor railroad stations.

1t is reported that DR.. Chauncey NJ. De-
pew, one day while admiring the grandeur
of the railway station at Frankfort, Ger
many, said to be the finest structure of its
kind in the world was asked why the rail-
way companies in America did not erect
such stations, to which he replied: BE
cause the travelling public would prefer to
have the money spent in comfortable trains
and in speed. traveller remains in rail-
way station but few minutes. He buys
his ticket, checks his baggage and passes
through the gate. He is often in the rail-
way train all night, and sometimes several
DAYS and nights in succession, and then he
appreciates the luXuries afforded by Amer
lean railways. He would rather have a
comfortable sleeping car or parIor car and
ride fifty miles an hour into dilapidated
old wooden depot than ride fifteen miles an
hour in an uncomfortable car and have
bronze and marble statues to look at on the
top of the railway station when he arrives
at his destination" The answer describes
the situation exactly, according to the re-
ports of those who have travelled in both
Germany and the United States.

eiety settled Against the Judgment of
majority of the preachers 1t was agreed
that the two should remain separate.
The report of the committee on American
Bible Society recommended that each dis

society: The report was adopted The re-
port of the committee on Woman's Home

only thirty-one local societies in the con-

mIttee on church extension were adopted.
During the afternoon session Bishop
Fowler came in. G.. L. Curtiss was presid-

enough to ask when the conference pre-
ferred to hear the reading OF the appoint
ments. He had been in a cabinet session
all day and held d roll of papers in his
hand when he spoke. There were cries for
the reading at once but the bishop smiled
and said they were not ready yet. They
would be ready at the evening session and

TO the Editor OF the indianapolis Journal:
About thirty-ive years ago a man named
Odd II. Clark came West from Indiana. He
settled in Nevada or California, remaining
there up to twenty years ago, when he
came to Utah and at once entered the min
ing business, where he was engaged in a
like capacity ever since, until a few weeks
ago, when he died here in Milford. There
is no record among his papers to enable
me 10 locate his family or relatives There
is something of interest in my possession
for those Who are entitled to it. and the
newspapers of Indiana viii serve a right
eous purpose by distributing this letter
throughout the State. T.. b. NJ KEON.
