Five sleeping cars have been ordered
for use on the Detroit-Cleveland trolley
line, and each will accommodate fifteen
persons. The cars are to be operated
between Detroit and Cleveland, a dis
tance of 173 miles. The running time is
to be ten hours and the usual stops will
be made. The operation of these cars
is in the nature of an experiment, says
the Detroit Free Press 1t has yet to
be shown that there is a demand for
sleeping cars on the trolley lines; but
the managers evidently believe there is
or they would not make the Investment
and the steam roads will have another
grievance when they are compelled to
meet this new form of competition

The Virgins incident at the pension
bureau is seized upon by the Hartford
Post as an excuse for calling attention
to the city's interest in Commissioner
Ware and says: This rebuke to the
clerks who abuse the privilege of sick
leave and who poster the commissioner
with their claims of superiority is happy
and effective. The fact that fidelity and
efficiency and modesty count is empha-
sized by the commissioner in a most or
iginal and forceful manner. The appli-
cation of this memorandum isn't confin-
ed to government service. The funda-
mental lesson which it teaches should
everywhere be recognized. The faithful,
meritorious and Industrious Virgins is
the sort of clerk who in the long run
gets to the too. The commissioners
unique method of recognizing Virgins
shows that the native of Hartford who
is now the boss of the pension depart
ment is precisely the right man in pre-
cisely the right place"

over 200. 900 was each year

citizen had told him that from

vas yearly brought 20 this town.
i IS astounding and . shame that
such things are. 4 new shop has

DO they all drink? Instead Of d.

In 1897, there we're 50 licenses

Some magistrates Judge Crane
said abused their power. Some
times whsn fine is imposed they
make an entry OF guilty and do not
put down the amount Of the fine.
The fine is collected on the install

After the delivery OF the Judge s
charge the dockets were called and
judgments entered in plain and un-

A correspondent should not be

but with certain accuracy.
The expectations of farmers are
measurably realized.
An excellent quality of tobacco
has been housed and large pendant
ears of corn are TO be seen as far as
the eye can compass. Employees are
scarce and by persistentand patient
efforts farmers are securing their
fodder and tops. A few more fair
days and their efforts will be crown
ed with success.
1t is q sunny spot in our recollec-
ton that where rye was ploughed
under as fertilizer satisfactory
growth of corn is the result. Tur-
nips are growing well, and the yield
of Irish potatoes is up TO the stand
ard. The cultivation of sweet pota-
toes is not so extensive as formerly.
Peas, principally OF the dark variety,
are raised to some extent.

Tournament and supper
at BIechanicsviIle.

Correspondence of the Beacon.)
THE grandest tournament in all
my experience of forty years was
the verdict of a gentleman who has
taken part in tournaments for that
length of time. The weather was
ideal, the heralds graceful as well
as comedy, the escorts courteous and
the knights skillful and gallant.
From the moment that the process
sion of knights and ladies' was formed
until the last carriage left the town
the greatest good nature prevailed.
Many novel features were introduc-
ed, but all of them served to enhance
the pleasure of the occasion and to
bring back the days Of Beauty and
Chivalry in the good old time ''be-
fore the wah.
The heralds were the Misses Gus
sic Wathen, Claudia Grason, Carrie
Burroughs, Gwinette Gardiner and
Madge Greenwich, with Mrs. L. S.
Johnson as chaperon. Mr.. George
Garner was Grand Marshal. He had
as aids Messrs. T. G. Edwards, p.
Fl. Mattingly and Bernard Love.
Messrs. w. A. Bailey, Harold Joy,
John Fowler, Ben Adams and VIM.
Herald acted as escorts to the Her.
aids. Mr.. John Ballenger, Mr.. Hen
ry Adams and Mr.. J. j. Alvey were
Judges of the Tournament and Mr..
Bernard Long Clerk of the Course.
The following young gentlemen were
invited to ride:
Ben Johnson, Knight of the Lone
Star; Arthur Edwards, Knight OF
st. Joseph's Stanley Johnson,
knight of Leonardtown; Jos. Combs,
knight of Mechanicsville; Bernard
Guy, knight of Briery Branch; Ern-
est Johnson, knight of the Silver
Star; VIM. Gardiner, Knight of Har-
row Hills; Ignatius Wathen, Knight
OF Maryland Springs; Clarence Guy,
Knight OF st. Clements. Thecharge
TO the knights was delivered by DR..
Charles Hayden and the Coronation
Address by DIR. z. r. Morgan.

The knight OF the Lone Star crown
ed Miss Gussie Wathen, 1st Maid.
The Knight of st. Clements crown
ed Miss Margaret Mattingly, End
Maid. The knight of the Silver Star
crowned Miss Marie Burch Bird Maid.
The Coronation Address was given
on the field and the crowns were
placed on the lances OF the knights,
who presented them to the ladies' OF
their choice. All the Knights, Es-
corts and Marshals were in costume.
The Black and Gold Of Maryland
were the colors of the Heralds and
their Escorts; the color scheme was
carried out in the trappings of the
horses; in the breast knots of the
Heralds and even in the decoration
of the arches, which were entwined
with Black and Gold.
The supper table receipts were
$lO3.50; the confectionery table re-
allied $3.50; the fancy table brought
in $47.75 aud the gate receipts fer
the tournament were 1925. The
net receipts were $241.38. ss*

Jour SUNDAY SERMON:


God'~ wonderful creation has pro-
v"ked the most profound criticisms
from the most profound minds of the
centuries, but the account of il, as
given in Genesis, has never been
weakened nor excelled.
I'm the beginning God created the
heaven and the earth; and the earth
was without form and void: and
darkness was upon the face of the
deep. And the Spirit of God moved
upon the face of the waters. And
God said, Let there be light and theIe
was Light
Ii is not the words themselves, nor
is il their arrangement, but it j. the
boundlessness of the scope and tie
things they comprehend, that gives
this account Of the creation its sub
Unity.
There was blackness of darkness ev-
erywhere.
There was no figure, nor form, nor
shape a. God moved upon the face of
nothingness, and with a breath the
darkness hid away and light immedi-
ately appeared.
No human eye has ever beheld so |
brilliant an illumination.
The quick transition gave it its un-
approachable splendor.
The waters were divided from the
waters and dry land appeared.
And the earth brought forth grass,
herb, tree and flower, each yielding
seed after its kind and each true to its
kind
And the waters brought forth abund-
antly.
There were created fishes of the sea,
fowls of the air and beasts of the field,
and, finally, God created man.
In the Image of God created He
him, male and female created He
them"
He gave neither superior dignity
over the other.
And God blessed the man and the
woman the finished and perfect work of
His creation, and gave Ia them every
herb, tree, and flower, and all that the
