Wants Ladies to Remove Hats.

Rev. Thurston, of the Canisteo M. E.
church, has started movement against
ladies wearing their hats while attend
ing services in his church. In speaking
on the subject from the pulpit the rev.
erend gentleman said: "One way in
which reverence might be demonstrated
toward God and His house is by the Ia
dies removing their hats when they
come into the public congregation. A
gentleman told me the other day he
liked the sermon at my church, but did
not know who preached it. From be-
ginning to end he was absolutely un-
able to see the speaker. 1t would be
amusing if not pitiful to see people go
through the necessary contortions from
the middle and rear of the house in or
der to enjoy the services. The devil
has the best of us in this respect, as in
the theaters it is no longer in good
form to obstruct a clear view of the
stage by means of headgear. In behalf
of necks which will probably be dislo-
cated-for sake Of reverence in divine
worship--let the ladies of this congre-
cation band together and abolish this
unseemly nuisance"

Commencement.


The commencemente exercises at the
opera house last evening was attended
by an immense audience. The decora-
tions were profuse and extremely
handsome, showing that master hands
and we'll cultivated talent was en-
ployed in the arrangement and design
ing of the floral display.
The graduates did honor both to
themselves and teachers in the polished
and high toned manner in which they
acquitted themselves. The young Ia
dies and gentlemen are to be congratu-
lated upon their success in acquiring
the high standard of intellect which
they so ably proved themselves to pos
sess, and their teachers should feel
proud of the evidence thus given of
their several abilities as instructors.
Words fail us to give utterance in due
measure to Principal and teacher. 1t
would be difficult to sum up in a brief
way, the magnitude of the results of a
seasons labor as shown last evening
by the brilliancy of those who per-
formed their final tasks as High School
students.
Some of the striking and very pleas
ing features of the occasion were the

A boy was compelled by his teacher
to write an essay on ''The Mouth" for
some infraction of the rules, and this is
what he wrote: "Your mouth is the
front door of your face; it is the cold
storage of the anatomy. Some mouths
look like peaches and cream; some look
like hole in brick wall to admit a
door or window. The mouth is a Grim
son aisle to your liver; it is patriotism's
fountain and a tool chest for pie. With
out the mouth the politician would be a
wanderer on the face of the earth and
go down to an unhonored grave. 1t is
the grocer's friend, the orators pride
and the dentists hope. Itputs some on
the rostrum and some in Jail. 1t is temp
tation's lunch counter when attached to
maiden, and tobacco's friend when
to man. 1t is the home of the unruly
member-the tongue. Without it mar
ried life would be like q summer dream
and the dude would lose half of his at
traction. ."-Ex.

Gorton'S MinStrelS.

Will be greeted with a big house this
Thursday evening. 1t is a matter of
note that in all the years since the or
ganization of Gorton's Famous Min
strels, no person has left the theatre
dissatisfed-a most remarkable record.
This is probably due to the fact that all
classes enjoy a good, clean, up-to-date
minstrel entertainment, and the Gort-
on's embody all that is refined and en-
joyable in modern minstrelsy. Man
ager Larkin is thorough-going mip-
strel man and always keeps his company
supplied with the best talent money
can procure. He is a business man and
applies business methods in his trans
actions. He reasons that nothing is too
good for his patrons, and consequently
when you hear of Gorton's Minstrels
coming, you can depend upon seeing
the prettiest and best show of minstrelsy
on the road. every performer is a
star" in his particular line-there is not
lame spot in the company; the singing
and musical selections are especially
good.
Watch for the grand street concert
at noon, given by Americas best solo
minstrel band. The program will con.
sist of selections from the latest popular
and operate successes.

The Liars Club.


The other morning,a truthful citizen
chanced to meet a member of the En-
porium Liars' Club, and improved the
opportunity to speak of the evil of
telling things that are not So
81 try to live up to the rules of my
Club" said the liar.
Lying has become second nature
to me; it is my nature to be false, but
I cannot be false to my nature; so
keep on lying"
"Your philosophy is as false as your
profession, "exclaimed the truthful citi-
zen.
''For all that I shall stick to it," re-
piled the Liar. ''Do you expect a Liar
to uphold true philosophy? Still, we
Liars do not like to be thought utterly
depraved or incapable of anything that
is good. We lie because we must, and
because it is our delight, but we some
times try to use our art in the interests
of the public good, indirectly at least.
For example, let me tell you about the
ldUeSU QOlnSS OF our CluD.
"At our last meeting, the condition
of our streets and alleys was under dis
cussion. One of our new members,
who as yet is far from being proficient
in our art, ventured to say that some
of our public alleys and nearly all the
private lanes in the borough are dis
graceful in appearance. You may i'm
agine what chilling reception was
accorded such a statement by expert
enced members ofthe Liars Club. We
warned heyoung man that the offense
must not be repeated; and in order to
defend the cause of Lies against the
horrid assault of black truth, we ap-
pointed committee to walk through
the lanes and alleys, and to make an
appropriate report at our next meeting.
Two others with myself were entrusted
with this commission. We have COM
pleted OF work, and I may as well tell
you what ur report is to be.
eve sh say that the alleys and
lanes are an ornament to our town;
that no one who has not been through
them has any idea of what beautiful
sights blush there unseen of the multi
tude; that eight men can walk abreast
the whole length of the alley that runs
parallel to Fourth and Fifth streets
and between them, so free is this alley
from all accumulations ofrubbish, that
not rusty can did we see anywhere,
no broken glass, no empty bottles, no
old boards and sticks, no feathers, no
old wire netting, no decayed vegeta-
ton, no filth, no open sewers, no ugly,
shackly fences, no disgraceful outbuild-
ings adjoining, no ill-kept backyards.
Where the whole is well-nigh perfect,
it is hard to discriminate; but we must
award the highest praise to that Sec
tion of the alley which lies between
Poplar and Vine streets, and also to
the locality near the intersection of the
alley with Cherry street."
The truthful citizen drew a long
breath, and rubbed his forehead to as
sure himself of his own identity Hav,
ing recovered his self-possession he re-
marked, "Your Club will have no cause
to complain of that report; they should
give you a medal and a special vote Of
thanks, and relax the rules of the Clut
in your favor for month. Such ex
hibitions of your art are not to be ex
pected every day or every week."

sTUPENDOUs EXPORT YEAR.
American Foreign Trade Makes q
New Record.

American Foreign Trade Makes q
New Record.
Over $4o,0OO,O00 worth Of mGnufac-
| lures were exported from the United
States in the month of May, and $685.
0O0, 900 worth of manufacturers mate
rails were imported into the United
States. This is higher record both in
expectation of manufactures and i'm
portation of manufacturers materials
than was ever made in any preceding
month in the history of our foreign
commerce and manufactures.
This assures a total expectation of
manufactures in the fiscal year of 1900
of fully $425, 100000 and an importa-
ton Of manufacturers materials of
$500, 100000, which will make the rec
ord in both exports of manufactures
and imports of manufacturers materi-
ais much higher than that of any pre-
ceding year. On only four occasions
has the importation of manufacturers
materials reached the 5000, 200, 600 line,
while in the year just ended it will be,
as already indicated, about $3OO,000,-
600, an increase of 30 per cent over the
average of the last five years. Exports
Of manufactures in 1899 were $685.
1900, an Increase of nearly or quite
SOC, 100000, while no earlier year ever
showed an increase of as much as $780,
100000.
The total importation of manufac-
lures for the year will aggregate about
1925, 100000, and, as already indicated,
the total exports of manufactures will
aggregate about 1925, OOO, 900. Prior to
1898 imports of manufactures always
exceeded exports of manufactures. In
1888 imports of manufactures were pa
times the amount of exports of manu-
features. In 1893 they were still more
than double the amount of the exports.
In 1896 they were nearly so per cent
greater than the exports.
In 1898 for the first time, the exports
of manufactures were greater than the
imports of manufactures, the figures
for that year being respectively: I'M
ports of manufactures, S226, 100000;
exports of manufactures, $290,000, 900.
Since that time exports of manufac-
lures have steadily increased and, as
above indicated, will now exceed the
imports OF manufactures by about
$1O0,00O,00O.
