Pocahcn:as Counci, No. 1893, Royal
Arcanum. has chartcded the commo-
dious steamer Pocahontas for an excur-
sion to Old Point and the Capcs on
Wednesday evening, jury 81, 1897 This
Is undertaken for the sole benefit Of one
OF Norfolk'a most deserving charities,
the Infant Sanitarium. at Virginia
Beach, which has hesn the means Of re-
storing health to 80 many little children
who Without such an institution could
not have escaped the summer heat so
often fatal to them In poorly ventilated
city homes. The committee OF arrange
ments has decided to issue tickets fog
the round tr!p at the small price Of %
cents-just half the usual rate-believ-
Ing that very many who may not be
able to so on the excursion would still
like to help so good work by purchas-
ing one or more tickets at so moderat t.;
cost. The excursions given by Po-
cahonsaS Council from time to time
have always been enjoyed, and the one
now In view ought to be the largest and
best Of any. To this end the commit
tee asks the hearty co-opera tion Of all
who have tender place In their hearts
for the little children Of the poor. The
steamer will leave clyde Line wharf at
p: M; Portsmouth. tbs p. m. Southern
railway wharf, foot OF Fayette street,
at 40 p. M; returning. viii leave Old
Point at l0:15 p. IN.
Tickets can be purchased at several
OF the centrally located business houses
on Main, CRANKY. and Bank streets, OF
members of POcahontaA Council ana

Meretioal Verse from Prinosteu.
within Q narrow murky room.
Enshrouded by oppressive gloom,
Tho theoloeian sits,
With shriveiied mind and purpose fell
He writes . homiiy ON he'll,
And all its grussomepits.
He gives it's length and depth in fsse.
Its unit Of eternal heat,
And calls thu awful rolls
Tocinus, AriuS, Belagius, ptraus,.
Plato and Renan. Paine aud Rsuss.
Each II q damned soul.
For BriRsu and Harper. smyth end Drooha.
AND their oo~ntaminattns books,
He has . holy loathing;
But Calvin who Servetus burned.
And Edwards who great Charming spurned,
He worships zen their clothing.
{. frigid, petrifyfng fossrli
Sit at the Naster's feet, b docflo,
Enlarge your shrunkon soul;
Look mp into the blue above,
And study Him whose boundlesslovo
Warns all from pole TO pole.
The nnal crosds without oonoessioo.
The musty rubrio and confession.
The miserable strife OF scot.
Are scorned by many O thinking man
Who lives the truth % best he can-
Him Christ win not reject.
