A WORD TO pHILANTHRoPIsTs.

Portsmouth, Va, Dec. 81, 1898.
Portsmouth Office Virginian-Pilot
There is an old adage which says.
"forewarned IS forearmed," and as
our merchant sailors are the greater
part of their time on the brlny deep.
it behcoves US as fellow beings to warn
them of the dangers from, land sharkes
when they enter port. And in connec-
ton with the foregoing there is Moth
ing which would suggest a better way
than the following article. taken from
the December number of the Signs of
the Times" published at Oakland. Cal.
The point is well taken and it is an adj
mirahle chance for some OF our phil
anthropic citizens to show what metal
they are made of:
'"'Chrlstian Endeavor is the name OF n
handsome gasoline launch recently de-
Dictated to ship missionary work on San
Francisco Bay. 1t Is designed for Wis
iting incoming vessels, as soon as pos
sible after their arrival. to warn the
crews against places where they would
be likely to fall into temptations; also
to point them to respectable places for
association and lodging. The object is
commendable and the little boat is well
fitted for the work.

unto us.

were held in a number of the churches.
which were well attended. The rain
kept a number of people on the streets
until late hour. when they began TO
assemble. The tin-horn and fire-crack-
er played an important part. AS the
hands of the town clock pointed to the
hour of 1855 the City Hall BEN and
the bells on the churches began to toll.
telling 10 the world that the dying year
WAS about TO ieave us. and as the hour
OF 10 was struck the joyous sounds were
heard telling TO the world that new
year had been born, and that all man
kind should rejoice. The steam whis-
ties were blown, and the noise of that
added to by the fire-cracker. &C., made
considerable excitement.
Numbers of those who were out wish
ed each other g. happy new year and
many pleasant returns. The old year.
which has just gone, has left many
was prosperous and full of joy: to
others it brought misery and woe.
Numerous friends have passed over the
river to that land where sorrow will
be no more.
The Pilot during that time
was a happy visitor to many person,
and brought to them the news of the
day. lis employees did all they could to
make il prosper and to make for it q
warm place in the hearts of the people.
1t now extends to its readers in this
city wish for happy new year to
all.
