The English Graded System.

The solution lies in the graduated or Eng
fsh system, people paying according to
their means or Intelligence those who like
eXclusivene paying first-class fare, others
second or third. Nine-tenths of the coored
people would take third-cass because of its
cheapneSS.
All restrictive legislation being removed,
prosperity would bless the south as never
before. With stimulated ambition the
negro would adorn his home with the COM
forts of civilized life and thereby benefit
every kindred industry. Heretofore as a
people, we have spent our energies and
force in supporting this or that man for
office. whoiy neglecting or showing indif-
ference to manhood rights. The matter of
office is of small moment per Sc, and will
take care of itself under the larger ques-
ton of being fairly treated as a race. If
we are fairly treated will be given re-
cognition in offices in accordance with our
deserts. and we will not have to beg for it.
We will present our candidates along with
others and pass Judgment according to the
principles involve If rejected.
These aims and purposes of the council
are he'd by the majority, and it is doubtful
If there is any division of opinion in regard
to them. None thus far has been manifest
There are other views as to the best means
to secure greater consideration for the ne
gro's rights.

GRAND CENTRAL CHANGES.
Work Commenced ON Alterations to be
Made in the Interior.

Work Commenced on Alterations to be
Made in the Interior
New York, Oct. 24.-Work was COM
menced yesterday on the extensive all
terations which are to be made in the
interior of the Grand Central station.
The work involves the erection of a
huge waiting room at the Forty-second
street end, which will serve for all the
roads now using the building. For this
purpose seventy feet of the train shed
will be appropriated, together with the
waiting rooms of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad
The first step will be the construction
of a subway at the northern end Of the
trainshed, which will pass beneath the
tracks and will be used for the conven-
lent handling of baggage. Lifts will be
erected at each platform to raise and
lower the baggage.
Inc present waiting rooms of the
New York Central and Hudson River
railroad will be turned into a baggage
room and the room of the Harlem Rail
road will be devoted to closets and pos
sibly smoking rooms.
1T is thought it will take at least
eight months to make the alterations,
and possibly year. In the neghbor-
hood of 11,000 passengers use the wait
ing room daily, and no little problem
will be found in accommodating them
without too much inconvenience
The dimensions of the new waiting
room will be: Width, IS feet; length, 1870
feet, and height, 35 feet The work is
estimated to cost 100000.

NoRTHFIELD EXTENSION.
Letter From Mr.. Moody, the Famous


Letter From Mr.. Moody, the Famous
Evangelist.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
Dear sir: For the past two years we
have carried on a sort of Mortified
Extension Movement" by arranging for
leading Mortified speakers to hold
services in different oenters throughout
the country.
In 1897 and 1898 Rev. F. B. Meyers
Of London was the teacher. This year
Rev. G. Campbell Morgan of London
has given the months of August, Sep
TENDER and October to this work. He
has visited about a dozen of the lead
ing cities of the United States and
Canada.
Everywhere the meetings have been
crowded, and the success and blessing
attending them has been marked. A
Widespread hunger for better knowl-
edge of the Bible has been evinced.
Urgent requests have come for repe-
tition of the meetings, and other CEN
tiers and smaller towns not yet visited
tie'NC pcBScu LUZ Tie SttlHe ledCHluS.
We have thus been led to make this
permanent branch of our work under
the name of 1.-THE Mortified Extension
Movement. Rev Howard W. Pope of
New Haven will act as superintendent
and will devote his entire time to it.
His wide experience as pastor and
state missionary has made him famil-
lar with the needs and problems of
church life.
i will be the object of the "Exten-
sion Movement" to arrange short series
of meetings for Bible study in different
centers; encourage the dissemination
Of good literature, and further the
cause of Christ by every possible
means.
In this way it is hoped to carry the
Mortified spirit and teaching to thou
sands of people who have never been
able to attend the summer conferences.
Pastors who desire to avail them
selves of this opportunity can corre-
spond with Rev. H. W. Pope at New |
Haven, Conn.,, or with me at East |
Northield, Mass
Yours in the work,
ID. T.. Moody.

WARDELL,S BET SETTLED.
Judge HOtchkiss' Skill with the sun
Proved In Westville Last Evening.

Proved In Westville Last Evening.
A sociable gathering was that which
assembled around the festive board and
partook of roast oysters and venison In
the greenhouses of the Robert Veitch
company in Westville-that Is, with one
possible exception, the host HIMSELF who
was no other than Charles III. Wardell
of Westville He, although he did the
honors of the occasion in princely
manner, might have had just a lurking
feeling of unrest hidden deep down in
his bosom; for Mr.. Wardell in acting
as host was but discharging a debt he
had eoncurred in rashly betting with
Judge Hobart l.. Hotchllss
1t happened quite a few weeks ago,
when the doughty Judge was preparing
to go off on hunting expedition
in the dark, snowy forests of Maine.
On the eve of the trip Mr.. Wardell, in
conversation with the enthusiastic
huntsman, expressed a few doubts OF
Judge Hotchkiss' ability to shoot
straight, etc. 1t was but the work of a
minute, and then, almost before he was
aware of the fact, Mr.. Wardell was par
ty to a registered bet to the effect that
If Judge Hotchkiss succeeded in killing
a deer While on his trip the oyster sup
per was to be on him, or vice versa. 1t
is unnecessary to say that Judge Hotch-
kiss returned from his Maine trip with
a deer, in the side of which was eek
ing, CORY wound. where he, with unfal-
tering aim, had sent the bullet, swift
and sure.
The laugh, as we'll as the supper, was
on Wardell, although he.stil clings with
tenacity to his belief In
Judge Hotchkiss' poor craftsmanship.
Along with the oysters, which compris-
ed the main part of the supper last eve
ming, were served large, juicy venison
steaks culled from the sides of Judge
deer. They were devoured
with great zest and much laughter by
the guests present. who were by no
means few in number. Among them
were numbered many Of Westvilles
men.
