It not infrequently happens that members
of choirs who have to face the congregation
during service are allowed to go at the end
of the year for no other reason than that
new faces are desired; the congregation is
tired Of the familiar face. Men while walt
ing for positions often get other work to do,
but women are unable to do this, and oc-
casion the dealers or brokers no end of
worry. The inflow of singers, or supposed
singers, to New York each year is steadily
increasing, and even the very small towns
are beginning to be heard from.

Sweetheart of the long ago,
Little girl / used to know,
How I long again to be
Charmed with thy simplicity.
You and I have older grown,
Dreams have vanished; hopes have hownI
Time and customs grown apace,
Place with the commonplace.
And the dreams that dreamed then
Have been dreamed by other men;
We but shared the common lot,
Dreamed our dreams and then-forgot.
Every heart has some romance
That gave way to circumstances
Ev'ry soul has known the pain

instruction met at the Montgomery White
Sulphur Springs on the 18th of July and
remained in session eight days imparting
the secret work. The school was largely
attended by Royal Arch Masons repre-
senting number of Chapters, and 1t is
said that much good was accomplished for
the craft generally and the Royal Arch
branch of masonry especially. The fol-
lowing officers were elected for the ensu-

This school has already been of great
benefit to Capitular Masonry In Virginia,
and looks now like it had come to stay, as
interest in it has been increasing each
year since its organization. The next an

place as this year.

"Soon 1 hope to reach my old Virginis

There among the mountains and the hills,
There among therivers and the rllls,
There on old Virginia soil,
The State to which should be loyal,
1t is there that | wish to dwell,
In the little town of Tazewell.
Far from my old friends l have strayed,
Though lots of new ones have made,
In the North, in the South, in the East, IN

Still it Is those of Virginia that love best,
For it is those of the old mother state
With whom I am most intimate;
So in the Old Dominion is where l wish
to be,
For that is really the only home for me.
Now for more than one year
l have been wandering far and near;
Over this country, up and down,
Through many state and in many town.
l am tired of the life of alteration
And now desire permanent location.
So am longing for the time to come,
When l again shall see my mountain
home.
l am tired of my present vocation
So will return to my former occupation,
And as l no longer wish to deviate,
l shall in the town of Tazewell locate,
For of all the towns in which have been

There in old Virginia l shall remain
And never leave my native state again.

What Disturbs AguinaIdo.

New 1ork, August "A cablegram to
the Journal from Cavite, July 80, via
Hong Kong, reports that the correspond
ent has spent two days in interviewing in
surgent leaders. AS result, the cores
pondent says he discovered evidences Of
jealousy of the American invasion but no
actual anti-American feeling. The dis
patch adds;
"Aguinaldo is respectful toward Admi'
raj Dewey, General Merritt and Consul
Wildman, and will go any lengths to re-
tain Consul Wildman's good opinion, but
he holds back from giving energetic help
to the United States forces.
"He will give only negative sort of as
sistance until he knows the exact form
which the American policy will take. He
is disturbed by telegraphic reports that the
United States will abandon the islands tc
Spain. There are some indications of a clast
between General Merritt and Aguinaldo. >

AGUINALDO'S ARROGANCE.
How He Makes Trouble For the
Americans.

London, August "A dispatch to the
Times from Cavite, dated July 26, says:
''It is becoming more apparent daily
that there are serious complications ahead.
The Americans never made greater mis-
take than bringing Aguinaldo and the in
surgent leaders here and giving them arms
and ammunition, for free rse, from the
Cavite arsenal. Aguinaldo, fearing annex
alton by the Americans. openly opposes
them.
''Either he has been corrupted by some
foreign nation or he hes a false notion OF
the strength of the Philippine revolutiona-
ries, failing to recognize that their recent
successes are due to the concentration Of
Spanish strength at Manila, consequent
upon the presence of the Americans. AL
though he admits no foreign recogr ton.
he talks of his government and dictates to
the American authorities in absurdiy in
flated terms.
"He has compelled the natives of the
southern approaches to Manila to register
their bullocks, ponies and conveysuces,
instructing the ownei3 not to supply them
to the Americans for transportation Will

derson promptly adopted measures, warn

ed to a more healthful locality, near Man

DEATH OF BROTHER J. R. HALL.
In AIemoriam.

As God IL his wisdom has seen fit to
call from our midst our beloved brother
j. r. Hall who departed this life the 10th
day of July, 1898.
Brother Hall was son of ex-sheriff
Hiram Hall of this county, about
80 years of age, and leaves wife and two
small children to mourn their loss. He
was good citizen, dutiful son, affec-
tionate husband and a kind father. By
his death the county loses one of its best
citizens and the l. o. o. F. one Of its most
consistent members.
Some weeks before his death Brother
Hall professed hope in Christ, called his
father and his family around his dying
bed and impaired unto them the glad and
glorious news that God for Christ sake had
pardoned his sins. Therefore be it re-
solved:
lst, That the members of this lodge
wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty
days.
End, That we extend our heartfelt
sympathies to the widow and orphans in
their sad bereavement.
3rd, That a copy Of the resolutions
and proceedings be sent to the father and
widow of the deceased.
4th, That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the Virginia Odd Fellow and

Resolutions of Respect.

The Ladies Missionary Society for North
Tazewell Station held meeting on the
Both of July, 1898, AID at that meeting the
following resolutions were passed out Of
respect for two recently decec csed members
of the society:
DEATH OF MRS. CAROLINE ELLEN PEERY.
We record with great sadness the death
of Sister Caroline Ellen Peery, who was a
faithful member of The Woman's Foreign
Missionary Society of this place. We had
known her for life time and had been
eye witnesses of the transformation of her
character into the image of Christ.
Among her friends she was known for the
quiet dignity of her life; at home she was
q gentle, true wife and devoted mother; in
the church she did what she could, being
faithful in attendance upon the house of
God and unusually attentive to the word
of life
We thank God for having given her
quiet life and beautiful example to us, and
now that she vii meet with us no more on
this earth, though cur sorrow be uneX-
pressible, yet we sorrow not as Others who
lsase no hope, for as Jesus died and rose
again, so this one who sleeps in Jesus
shall God bring with him in that day
when He shall make up His Jewels.
Resolved, that a copy Of this paper be
spread upon the minutes of our society,
and that a copy be sent to tie Midland
Methodist, Woman's Missionary Advo-
cate and the TAZEWELL REPUBLICAN for
publication.

REPLY ALREADY SENT.

London, August 3.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard, telegraphing
Tuesday, says:
"The governments reply to American
terms was forwarded yesterday through
NJ. Cambon, and there is strong pros
pect that peace will be concluded. 1t is
not to be supposed that the United States
government will object to representations
being made on the Philippine question
and upon some pecuniary claims which
were mooted by the United States in the
West Indies. On all the remaining main
issues, Spain shows disposition to assent
to the American demands.
"No cabinet council was held today,
nor are the ministers likely to meet again
until fresh intelligence is received from
Washington. This is not expected, at the
earliest before Wednesday.
"The news from Manila still causes anx-
iety. No foreign mails reached Madrid
today in consequences of floods near
Burgos.
"With regard to the part played in the
negotiations by NJ. Cambon, the French
ambassador at Washington, there is now
marked tendency both here end in Paris
to attribute to it considerable Importance
Directly the final arrangement is made, ii
is supposed that the press will be allowed
more liberty of comment. The general
impression is that both governments are
disposed to put an end to the war as hon
orably a3 possible for Spain, which woulc
have been easier had the United States
not imposed such hard conditions with re-
gard to the Philippines"

Washington, August 1.-Surgeon Ge1-
eral Sternberg, Of the army has recon-
mended to Secretary Alger that the troops
now at Camp AIger, Va, near this city,
be removed at an early day to some other
location more healthy than that they now
occupy. The increasing number of ty
phoid fever cases, which disease has pre-
vailed here for some time, is the reason
assigned by General Sternberg in making
the recommendation.
