WELCOME TO THE RALEIGH.
But the Cruiser Cannot 60 Up the
River Co Wilmington, N. g.

But the Cruiser Cannot 60 Up the
River Co Wilmington, N. g.
wilmington, N. O., May 5.-Thou-
sands OF people gathered on the river
front and in adjacent streets yesterday
afternoon to witness the expected ar
rival of the cruiser Raleigh and to ey-
tend a greeting to its officers and men,
but at about 4:30 o'clock the disap-
pointing news was wired from South
port that the ship had not been sight
ed off Cape Fear bar, and that 1t would
be impossible, therefore, for her to
reach Wilmington before today Still
later came the news that, owing to
the fact that the Raleigh is drawing
20 feet 6 inches, Captain Coghlan and
his officers decided that It was not
advisable to take the ship up the river
to Wilmington.
Yesterday was a gala day for the
lower Cape Fear, for Wilmington had
sent her beauty and her chivalry''
down the river to give the Raleigh a
rousing southern welcome to the wa
ters &C the old north state. At 5:15
o'clock the Oak Island life saving crew
signaled that the Raleigh was in sight
Steamers in waiting Immediately pass
ed out, and with cheers and whistles
met the cruiser just off the bar. She
was welcomed with the national salute
from Fort Caswell and the Hornet
and the Raleigh responded with 81
guns.
An entertainment committee from
Wilmington today sent a steamer tc
take Captain Coghlan and his officers
to Wilmington to give the cordial re.
ception for which they have planned
and also for the presentation of the
gun captured at Manila. Southport
is giving the Raleigh's crew pleasant
day ashore.

sailed showed that the postal service
on the island was easily self sustain

Washington, May 5.-President Nc
Kinley will leave the city next Mon

dent will transact only such business
as absolutely requires his personal at

mr. mills Tells This story.

ARGENT fire in Chicago destroyed Nc
Clurg's great bookstore and with it
collection of old and rare volumes.
These books were kept in an obscure
place which Eugene Field called Saints
and Sinners corner, because of the
heterogeneous character of it's frequent
ers. DR.. Hills, who is now pastor Of
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, tells some
interesting stories about Saints and
Sinners corner. One of them is con-
corning Field. He dearly loved these old
books but their valuation was often
out of his reach. One book in particular
he coveted, rare volume of Burns. He
could not afford to buy it when it first
came into the collection, but he saved it
for himself by writing on fly leaf:
GUIDE friends, for Jesus sake forebare
To buy We book thou seest here,
For have gone to earn the pelfe-
Imeane to buy we book myselfe.

BOY cHoIRs.
An Adjunct to Church Music Coming
Into Greater Use.

An Adjunct to Church Music Coming
Into Greater Use.
The boy choir is an adjunct to church
music which continues to grow more
popular 1t is by no means new insti-
tuition in New York churches, but the
indications seem to point to an even
greater demand for its services in the
future. In some of the western church
es, where solo singers have been relied
on to furnish the music for half CEN
fury, the boy choir has been introduced
lately.
The method of training the boys diff
fers in the various churches, but the
general idea is to take boys of ten years
or younger. They are put through
course in the elements of music, voice
training and sight reading This course
ordinarily covers two years. AS the boys
develop proficiency they are put into
the choir, but an elementary class is al
ways kept going to fill possible vacan-
cies. They rehearse every day except
Saturday and Sunday, when the regu-
lar service takes the place of rehearsal.
The rehearsal usually lasts an hour and
a half.
The average period of choir boys
usefulness is FIVE years. As the boys
grow older their voices begin to change
or break, and they are obliged to leave
the choir.
The question is often asked, "What
becomes of the choir boys2'' In num-
Der of the churches in this city former
choir boys may be found occupying
prominent places. Some are now choir
masters themselves and train choir
boys, others are solo singers and still
others, whose voices are no longer of
fine quality, are in the organ loft.
Of course many of the boys lose their
singing voice entirely and with it their
interest in music. and these drift into
all sorts of business and professions. A
peculiar fact is that boy sopranos some
times develop into bass singers as they
grow older, and no rule can be laid
down as to the change of yoice.-New
