THE VALLEY City.
In the Yukon River Business.

In the Yukon River Business.
The following from the Toledo Blade
will be found interesting:
"Vice Commodore George Craig, OF
the Toledo Yachting Association, and
member of the Craig shipbuilding COM
pany, to-day sold the steamer Valley
City to Mr.. Cummings OF Chicago, who
represents John Cudahy.
The Valley City will be taken by cars
to the Pacific, from which place she
will be taken to the gold fields. She is
of very light draught and will carry
comfort ably 800 people. 1t Is rumored
that Capt. Ed, McNelly, formerly cap
tain of the City of Toledo, has been Sc
cured as captain of the Valley City.
1.-The boat was built by the Craigs
and was shipped by cars to Grand Rap
ids Michigan, at which she piled for
some time. She was then brought here
and ran for some time between Toledo
and Perrysburg. The electric road hay
ing killed the steamer business to Per-
ryshurg, the Valley City was taken to
Craigs ship yard, at which place she
has been for a length of time,
1.-THE Valley City has been rechris-
tened the Captain John G. Barr. Cap
tain Barr is the man who has command
of the fleet on the Yukon and tributar-
les. Five more boats of this type are
being built at Seattle, and will be
shipped with this boat. The boats will
be shipped from Seattle IN time to catch
the September boat for st. Michaels. al
which place the boats will be put w
together and taken to the Upper Yukon
and tributaries"

"A few days since little circum-

and care with which the employees OF
the Ohio Central lines look after the
welfare of their passengers. A lady
purchased ticket at the East Toledo
office for $500 and gave in payment
what she supposed was a silver dollar
and a paper dollar, but after boarding
the train learned that the bill was for
S5 instead OF one. Later she informed
conductor ]. S. Swartz who promised
to wire the agent from Bowling Green,
but on the arrival OF the train at the
latter point the conductor received a
message asking him to pay the lady
four dollars as she had made mistake
in giving him g FIVE for one dollar
bill. The lady was much pleased to
receive her money so promptly and was
very profuse in her thanks to conduc-
tor Swartz and agent II. E. Stalker for
their attention and honesty. This is
only sample of the many little diff
culties that are adjusted by the courte-
| GUS employees of this popular line.

A HARD LUCK S o r

This etory, told by an actor to q lit
tie gathering the other evening, made
a hit" it ia strictly new, but, as the
apologize s~tory-te!ler always says,
may De some of you haven't heard IL"
A theatrical company was stranded
in a small town in Arkansas. The
season had been disastrous. The ed.
vance egent had proved himself a rain
maker, and the counter attractions
had been too good And so this com
pany was stranded, hundreds of miles
from the gay RialtO in New York, with
every prospect Of walking homeward
and starving an route.
In this hour of despair a letter came
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1897-03-30
THR MorHRa' CONGRESS.

There was much of value spoken in
the Mothers congress, held recently IN
Washington. In a paper read by Mrs.
Alice Lee Moque she said: ut was the
old theory that parents we're the invOl
untary irresponsible agents of God in
the propagation of species Now it il
considered that careless parentege is
little less than a crime. The child de
serves the most serious and labOrious
study. Men and women are often in
fuenced by tri1es light as air in enter
ing upon marriage. A girl ought, be
fore allowing herself to love, to con
slider the health, mental constitution,
position In life, and means of support
of the man she may wed. Also, she
must consider herself. The first con
sideration is health. Women ought
first to be emancipated from the doc
tors. Mother love ought to be exer
cised before maternity is entered on /;
after, it Is TOO late to remedy many
Ills. Right thinking and right living
people ought to complement each other
N the man and woman who take upon
themselves the duties Of paternity"
And here is some excellent advice
from Mrs. Theodore Burney: The
higher branches of book learning " she
said, ARE we'll enough for the girl or
woman who has the inclination or time
for them, but they should be secondary
ID her education to the knowledge
which shall fit her for motherhood. l
grant you she may never marry, but
as one Of the sex on which the care and
education of childhood must rest, she
should know its needs, and be ready
With head and heart and hand to serve
the cause Of helpless infancy in any
emergency"
Helen II. Gardener, the we'll known
author and lecturer, said: self abne
cation, subserviency to man, whether
ne be father, lover or husband, Is the
most dangerous theory that can be
caught TO her whose character shat
mould the next generation. She has
40 right to transmit q. nature ana &
character that aresubservient, subject.
inefficient, undeveloped-in short &
sIavish character, which is either
Olindly obedient or blinGly rebellious,
and Is therefore, in either case set as 4
Clme lock TO prey or to be preyed upon
oy society in the future. Ii a woman
is not brave enough TO demand and OBJ
tain personal liberty and entire con
grol OF her great and rae endowing
function OF maternity, she has no right
70 dare t stamp upon a child and to
curse a race with the descendants OF
such a servic9-a dwarfed, a time and
master serving character. Subject
mothers will never produce a race OF
tree, veil poised, Justice practlclDg
children"

CHARLOTTE,
II q.

from the manager of the opera house
at Lone Rock. He wrote that if the
company would come to Lone Rock
and play at bis house he would guar
antee enough money to carry all the
people back to New York. He said
the company would be sure to do well,
as there had not been q troupe in town
for two weeks, and he mad the only
theatre.
The members of the company were
overjoyed. They sold or pawned all
their property which they did not
actually need, and succeeded in rails
ing just enough money to take them to
Lone Rock by the afternoon train.
The actors were in excellent spirits
as the train pulled into Lone Rock late
in the afternoon. At last they would
see the dear old Rialto again! Once in
New York they would doubtless
sign" with gilt.edge combinations
playing week stands. No wonder they
we're happy.

pany to the hotel The leading man

He was at peace with the world. The
