Virtues Reward

They are telling story of fond Bos-
ton father and a young man who was
graduated at Harvard last year. When
this young man was about to enter col
!ege, four years earlier. his father gave
him some good parental advice as to
how he ought to conduct himself dur
ing his college career, and in order to
encourage him to avoid the vices that
beset college undergraduates, the father
promised his son that if he would
neither smoke nor drink during his four
years at Cambridge, he would make
him present of $1,000 on the day of
his graduation. The young man lived
up to the lofty standard set for him by
his father, and along with his degree OF
bachelor of arts he received $1,000 in
stock of the now defunct Globe Ma
tional Bank, then quoted at par. AS
the assessment of $4,000 on the stock Is
now due. the moral of this tale is OBJ
viouS.

The Rise Of the Black Brother.

a Southern delegate to the Methodist
general conference said the other day:
One of the most striking things in con
nection with the present conference is
the great advance which has been made
in recent years by the co.ored members
OF the church. Some of them are now
able to make most eloquent and telling
speeches, and almost all of them are
men Of good education How different
1t was in the days when / first went
South! Shortly after my arrival / at

a speech, and a good colored brother
got up to reply. We has a most splen-

sal corpse of teachers, oh which our
brother heah is faih samp e. AS he
pointed to me, sitting like a mere ghost
in my chair and called me "a faih sam
pie of the corpse ub teachers, the
humor of the situation almost overcame
me. He was speaking more truly than
he realized And yet the man who
made that speech persevered in his
ministry, got good education, ard is
today scholarly and most efficient
pastor"

AMERICA AND CHINA.

The United States Is not trying to get

not intend to keep troops in that coun-

its ability to carry out this pledge is

genuine is the desire of the Government

Hobson Heard From.

Lieutenant Hobson, the hero of the
Merrimac. has dropped out of sight to
a considerable extent since he has been
on the Hongkong station. A reminder
OF him came to New York the other
day when the American bark Adolph
Obrig reached that port from Hong
kong. On board were a number of rel
les of Admiral Dewey's victory in Ma
Mia bay. in the shape of cases of guns,
shot and war curos. With them was

were sent by Lieutenant Hobson. The
mast will be set up in Hobson's native

The Independent speaks Of the pos
sibility that native orators have been
misquoted by 'inimical papers" If
there Is journal in the city that would
knowingly or purposely misrepresent
the language of these men we hope the

The highest duty of the newspaper is
to write the annals of it's time with al
the precision and accuracy 1t knows.
That is the Advertisers rule, especially
in repeating personal views upon public
questions-though it often finds mat
men who are reported stenographie;,l-
