PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY.
Few Of Them Seem tn Have Learned
Anything Noble From Nature.

"For the stability and Righteousness
10 think we must pin our faith on the
country people who live near TO ma
lures heart, writes Mrs Lyman Alb
bott in The Ladies' Home Journal. the
first Of series Of Peaceful Valley"
papers, which picture life in an ideal
rural community. but how many Of
them, she says, "seem to have learned
anything noble from her? Her beauty
does not refine them, her honesty does
not incite them to thoroughness, her
free handedness does not inspire them to
generosity-they become narrow and
sordid in the midst of grandeur and lib
erality. They imagine there can be
nothing in life but work or play, toll
or rest, and they feel contempt for
those who play and rest. They have
never learned to mingle work and play.
toll and rest in due proportion, and they
cease to find any pleasure in life unless
they abandon work altogether. Like the
tired woman who wrote her own cpl
taph, they fancy heaven a place where
they can do nothing forever and ever.
This view of life makes loafers in
the village as it makes them in the
cities. When different spirit has found
room to grow, a new order Of living
prevails Life becomes something more
than a slow grinding Of the mill, more
than burden, TO be endured only be-
cause it cannot be at will laid down. 1t
becomes luxury as well as a necessi-
ty. Individuals combine, not for their
own advantage, but to multiply bene-
factions and as strength increases by
its right use, the attainment Of one
worthy and ambitious advantage is only
the suggestion and achievement of an
other"

SERVICES FOR THE FOURTH.
His Honor Makes a Delivernnce
from the ThrOne--Many Cases.


Justice John announced yesterday that
he would have services the Fourth of July
at $3.50 A. NJ, as usual, not holding that
poor white folks should have so much
holiday. Besides, he thinks that certain
sinners of the city of Richmond would
miss the exercises very much if they
were not held
George Shields, a dusky gallant, was up
for shooting at and trying to kill his
sweetheart, Lula Tyler, and was sent on
to the grand jury. George went TO see his
best girl on Wednesday evening, like
every loyal lover should do, but when he
reached the place of her earthly abode
there was another fellow there, and the
door was closed, with him on the outside.
Now every up-to-date gallant In Jackson
Ward, when he goes counting, carries
''razoo" or a pistol, or both, and George
had the pistol. Possibly he had the razor
too, notwithstanding Justice Johns opin
ion on the subject. Anyway. he thought
for a moment of the way Dewey stormed
Manila and Cavite forHhcations. and i'm
mediately afterwards opened fire. Pretty
soon q policeman came cruising around a
corner and George was swallowed up.
even as the Montojo was swallowed up
by Dewey.
Stephen d. Turner and Eddie Black,
both black, were charged with being dis
orderly on the street, and were fined 50
each.
In the case OF w. c. Bartlett, charged
With cursing and abusing Cora Bartlett,
the accused was required to give security
In 500 for six months.
Jim Smith (colored) was before the
throne for assaulting William Hill with
rock, and was promptly fined $40 and
costs.
Sergeant Thomas said that was a right
good pull, and he thought they had bet
ter stop there. Justice John replied, And

ORDINATION OF DEACONS.
An Interesting Service mt Emmanuel
baptist Church Last Night.

The two newly elected deacons Of I'm
manuel Baptist church-Messrs. l.. w.
Dorset and s. b. Woodfin-were last night
formally set apart to the responsible
Office to which they had been chosen by
the unanimous voice of the church.
The ordination services were both I'M
pressiye and interesting. The pastor,
Rev. j. r. Harrison, presided, and those
taking part were Rev. DR.. James Nelson.
for several years pastor OF this church,
who offered the opening prayer and read
the Scripture selection; Rev. M. Ashby
Jones. of Leigh-Stre'st, who made the or
dination prayer; DIR. Hatcher. who spoke
ON the deacon's office and how IL should
be filed, and Rev. DIR. l.. X. Thornhill,
of Manchester, who spoke on the duty
OF the church to the deacons.
DIR. Nelson also made a short talk, In
which he referred very tenderly to his
years of happy association with I'm
manuel church and said he thought the
church had acted wisely In electins as
deacons two of the members who had
been among his most helpful and SYM
pathetic supporters during his Passionate.
DIR. Hatcher pronounced the benediction.

LAW In EFFECT NOW.
PEOPLE WILL ALL FEEL THE
EFFECT OF WAR TODAY.
GREAT DEIlID FOR THE STAMPS.
Col. brady and HIS Force Kept busy
Filling the Orders-The Collectors
Construction ON CertaaA Points
Custom-House Personals.

The internal-revenue ONCE was in a
perfect ferment oil day yesterday. by
reason of the additional work that the
war-tax law has brought with II. To dg-
gravate the situation, an inspector from
Washington appeared upon the scene and
overhauled the records.
1t is a remarkable fact, and one that
seems fairly to astound Colonel Brady,
that his large supply Of stamps Is al
ready dwindling. As fast as they could
be given out yesterday they were served
over the counter by two of the deputies,
and to-day a greater rush than ever Is
expected One Of the Richmond banks
bought an immense quantity OF check
stamps, for the purpose, 1t is supposed,
of retailing them, and gaining the adj
vantage of the discount which is allowed
by the department to large buyers.
MAY "REMEMBER THE MAINE"
The new stamps are in various colors,
but the design Of the smaller denomina-
tons. which were the only ones seen by
the writer, are all the same, presenting
merely a white battleship, which might
easily be the Maine. Not at all bad Sc
lection.
Colonel Brady. who has many knotty
points TO decide, ruled yesterday that
deed is incomplete, and does not grant,
assign, transfer, or otherwise convey or
vest in the grantee until the grantors in
the deed have made due acknowledgment
thereof, and hence 1t follows that there
is no acknowledgements stamp required on
a certificate of acknowledgment attached
to the deed, the tax being upon the deed
or mortgage.
Another ruling was that broker
note, or memorandum of sale OF any
goods or merchandise, requires on each
memorandum of such sale Decent IN
ternal-revenue stamp.
CUsTOM-HOUSE PERSONALS.
Mr.. Janney Peasants's term of office
as Deputy United States Marshal expired
Yesterday, and Deputy Malcolm "A. Coles
will henceforth reign in his stead.
1t was payday in the government de-
partments yesterday. In the post-offce
the clerks and carriers received their
monthly salaries in gold.
Postmaster Knight. who Is rapidly re-
gaining his health and strength, was al
his office yesterday. He expects 10 leave
for his old home in the mountains in the
near future.

How the Clubs stand.

NEWARK. y. j.. June 3o.-(Special)-
Newark was the victor In to-day's game
with Richmond. but the southerners made
q wonderful finish. With the score 10 20 1
against them, the Bmebirds started in in
the seventh inning, and for the rest Of
the game the locals were kept busy
chasing hits The finish was a sensation
al one and II by some chance Dundon's
home-run drive I'm the ninth could have
been transferred TO the seventh, zen
every Richmond player had a 1T. and
four runs were scored, there nigh ne an
other tale 20 TELL for in that inning there
We're three men on bases when Dundon
biz safely.
McPartlin kept Richmond guessing for
Six innings. but in the remaining innings
the big fellow was hit hard. Richmond
was unfortunate i'm the eighth, when six
hits were made, as both leahy and Hess
were forced out at third on grounders by
K0pf and Hess, the latter batting twice.
Two errors by Dundon in the seventh. a
base on balls, a sacrifice, followed by
two singles and two twO-baggers, melted
Newark six runs in the sixth inning.
Richmond had three men on bases in the
FIRST inning and two men out, but Leahy
struck out. The latter made phenome-
mai left-handed catch of Daley's high line
fy In the eighth, and doubled Cassidy at
first with ease. Dundons long hit in the
ninth was lost In the grass. the third
haseman scoring before the ball was
found.
