TO REBUILD ST. PHILLIPS.
Rev. A. NJ. Whitman Sent Here by
Bishop Turner For That Purpose.

bishon turner For That Purpose.
Rev. A. NJ. Whitman of the African
Methodist Episcopal church has arrived
in the city and taken charge of st. Phil
ips church on New street This is the
church which was almost demolished by
the storm of Sept. % last, and Rev. Whit
man has been sent here by Bishop Turner
for the special purpose of rebuilding the
church Owing to dissatisfaction with
the prospects for rebuilding the church
the pastor and large part of the congre-
cation removed some time since to the
building on West Broad street, formerly
occupied by Marvin Methodist Epis-
copal church, which has erected
a new building elsewhere. The action Of
the pastor and congregation in deserving
the old site has been discussed in church
circles, it seems, and decision has been
reached to rebuild the church.
Rev. Whitman, in talk with a Morning
News reporter yesterday stated that the
house of bishops of the \ NJ. f. church
had passed upon the matter and decided
to rebuild the church. This is his mission
here and he desires the aid and sympathy
of as many of the citizens both white
and colored, as he can interest in this
object
"St. Phillips church." said Rev. Whit
man, lis of especial interest to the A. NJ.
e. church. The site which it occupies is
the first ever owned by the A. NJ. Z.
church. and for that reason as we'll as
others, we are unwilling to abandon it..
All of the congregation did not enter into
the movement to seek the new location,
and have already gathered a congrega-
tion. Two of our bishops. Bishops Salter
and Turner were former pastors of this
church"
Rev. Whitman Is a man of considerable
prominence in his denomination and
among the colored people of the south
generally. He was the author of the ode
which was read at the negro celebration
at the Chicago exposition and has writ
ten several other poems, among them be-
ing an ode to StonewaE Jackson, which
he once delivered before the Mississippi
legislature, by invitation of that body.

GUARDING AGAINST LOSSES.
An Electric Protective system for
Treasury Safes and Vaults.

AAhu
From the Washington Star.
Ever since United States Treasurer Rob
erts came into Office he has been thinking
over the question of new devices for pro-
tecting the govrnment against losses of
money from inside or outside the build
Ing. He has now arranged to have an
electric protective system for the safes
and vaults under his care, and the con-
tracts Will be let within a few days. Sec
retary Gage has sanctioned the plan, and
will have it extended. after he sees and
is satisfied with its operations, to the
offices of the register of the treasury and
the controller of the currency.
The little opportunity there has ever
been to rob tho government treasury
will be minimzed under the new system,
which is in successful operation by big
banks and trust companies throughout
the country.
The system provides for a central station
outside the treasury building, as well as
for stations within. These stations are
on the same order as a fire alarm in fire
engine house. OF course, the different
safes and vaults will be connected with
these stations. In case a vault or safe is
tampered with, an alarm is Immediately
Tung in at the stations, and everybody
is prepared to turn out on short notice
and go for the person doing the tamper-
ing.
Should the stations In the treasury
building be tampered with to prevent the
proper alarms there, the central station
would be sure to furnish the location
of the evil work. The man in charge OF
the central station would Immediately
notify those inside.
Treasurer Roberts will have an arrange
ment BY which he can be at once notified
at his home If anything wrong Is going
on. He can then take himself to the
scene and direct investigation or opera
ton.
BY the electric system the safes and
vaults close at a certain hour, and If an
attempt is made 10 open them previous to
the hour fixed by the system for their
being opened, the alarm is turned in.
The system will extend 10 the outside
of the building, and will be a warning
against attempts from that direction.

Playing tn. Game of Observation.

Playing tho Game of Observation.
One of the jolliest of jolly games
goes by the name of Observation.
Take every one of the party into an
other room, says the Jenness Miller
Monthly, let them look around anu
then go out. Afterward give each per-
son pencil and paper and ask him to
tell what time it was by the clock,
how many colors there are In the car
pet, how many pictures there are In the
room (the one he went into for few
minutes), where the chairs stood, how
the curtains were draped and all sorts
of things of this nature. In the be-
ginning of this game you must not tell
the boys and girls why they are allow
ed to go into the other room; the
game, you see, is to test their powers
of observation-that is, to find out
how much they notice. how keen their
attention is, and so on. If at first not
a single one can remember any Of the
things he is asked to tell, you need not
be very mach surprised. A good many
grown-up people can look all around
a room and not be able to tell what
they saw when asked. It is very
good thing in this world to keep your
eyes open and learn by observation
that is, by seeing-and this observa-
ton game is first-rate lesson and q
lot of fun at the same time.
