= LOSER relations between the men
y and women of the dramatic pro-
fession ana the church should be
established. Centuries of fnisunder-
standing have raised mountains of
prejudice which viii take time, patience
and labor 10 remove; hut the time IS
ripe, the conditions favorable and the
opportunities greater. now than at any
other time. to overcome the difficulties
and establish more cordial relation
between these two great factors of our
intellectual and spiritual life.
II is not now the time to trace the
origin OF the drama or to follow il
through its vicissitudes or its evolution
from the primitive pastoral plays of the
old Greek Thespis to the institution
that. today. rich in its literature. opu-
lent in its poetry. glorious In its hui
manity, stands as one Of the most i'm
pOrtant factors in our modern civiliza-
ton. Suffice il to say that it was under
the direct inspiration Of the church that
the modern drama came into existence.
and, incredible as it may seem to many,
II Is nevertheless fact that the church
was the first theatrc-the altar the first
stage. the priests the first actors and
the mass the first play.
In a word. the modern drama is the
immediate offspring of the church, and
like many other children. strong in it's
health and vitality. il grew. thrived

The breach gradually widening till the
relation that should have been one Of

of all the most bitter, and the feud be
tween the church and stage was no ex-
ception to. the rule. Denunciation on
one side aroused defiance on the other.
The church poured forth INJECT .e, and
the stage answered with raiTery. The
preacher abused and the actor replied

But times, manners and opinions
have changed, and today the stage
welcomes the Outstretched hand of con-

of Major Delmar, did not know he was
on the grounds.
Major Delmar is under engagement
to start against the worlds record at
the Empire track on September "a. at
the fall trOtting meeting and horse
show. The fast course at Yonkers is
being specially prepared for the trial
in hopes that the New York horse may
beat 200
Major Delmar's way Of going is very
'ifferent from that of his great rival,
Lou Dillon, 200. He goes high at
10Th ends and has more hook action
than almost any other fast trotter on
the turf.
His temper is not the best. Like
LCu' Dillon, he is very ambitious and
cannot be easily restrained when an
ether horse is ahead Of him on the
track.
A. P. Mcdonald, who drives Major
Delmar, is not an old man, but he is
an old-timer in the sulky. His great
st success as a trainer has come to
him in the last few years with Con
nor, 2:03A; Darrell, 2:041a; Milque,
2:O9H; Authoress, 2:09A, and other
fast ones.

BY MAJDE GRIFFIN.


idea is repeated in the hips decora-
ton.
The Jacket is blouse not too tull
at the front and finished at the should
ers with a close-fttting cape OF Ape-
line trimmed with a quantity OF tiny
plaid buttons. There is vest-piece
of the braid in wider bands and these
extend above the cape to form the
finish of a collarless effect. y shlrt
waist of plaid French flannel is worn
beneath the blouse. For plain cloth
suits the plaid braids furnish most de-
sirable Frightening effects.
The mohair plaids are useful be-
cause of the substantial surface gwen
them. With their dust shedding and
enduring qualities they provide most
satisfactory fabrics not only Tor Wo-
men but for school frocks for misses
and young girls.
The autumn counterpart OF the
shirt-waist hat is a very smart little
affair and more expensive than It's
summer rival. Particularly fetching
is a woolly red felt with broad up
ward curving brim that spreads into
a fiat crown. The crown is pierced
with big openings that are button
holed and starting through these
openings are two black-headed req
birds put there in the guared fashion
of bird stalled in their nests.
Another smart hat is OF hnely
tucked English felt, saucily up-turneo
at the front with an incision made lot
no other apparent reason than TO ac-
commodate a broad band of satin rib
| bon which is placed through either
side and tied in a big soft bow.
Fur is combined with the new fab
RIGS on many Of the smart hats. one
very smart design is Of grey felt with
a long. silky surface. 1t is turned up
at both sides and faced with Persian
lamb. A Persian lamb ornament like
a buckle fastens long dropping
| DI,,me of cocuue's feathers, grey IN
tone and touched with green and
gold.
Among the new furs mols mus
puash comes in for large share OF
popular favor. 1t is cheaper tha1
| mole which. though soft and beautl-
ful is not at all durable and exceed
ingly costly. Musquash can be nae
in exactly the same colorings and
lasts much longer. It makes elegant
rhree-quarte sacques and is efec'
tive in combination with heavy silk
guipuire and embroidery.
An important feature of all winter
garments is the buttons employed
either for purposes of fastening or OF
namentation. For they are made OF
let paste, steel and the dull shades
of velvet and constitute a very ornate
trimming.
Not only are these buttons used
on capes and gowns but they play an
imDortant part in the seasons fash

two or three different kinds Of buttons

Autumn gloves are more heavily

red that goes well with almost any

Major Delmar, the new rival of Lou

Syracuse is a bay gelding, 1872 hands

He was bred by the late William
E. Speer, former Treasurer of the In

foaled at Suburban Farm, near Glens

Delmar, 2:16a his sire, was a son

Charles Radoliff. of Bolins Mills.

Charles Rsdcliff, of Bolins Mills.
Vinton county. has begun the cul-
ture OF ginseng on his farm on Ra-
coon Greek and is already beginning
to figure mp his profits, which are
expected to be great.
MIR. Radcliff owns large farm,
but his health failed him SO much
that he was unable to till the soil
in the arduous manner necessary
to make a living on Racoon hill
sides He sowed the seed on a
shady hillside of virgin soil under
meath leafy bowers and watched
his industry grow. He cultivated
the ground a little by keeping
down other vegetation. 1t requires
but little work, however, as the
deep shade necessary to the growth
of ginseng keeps back other plants.
Green ginseng roots are now
worth one dollar a pound and FIVE
dollars pound when dry. Mr..
Radcliff will not harvest any roots
this year. but expects to have
several hundred pounds next year.
Land adapted to ginseng will pro-
duce from 5000 to $1,000 an acre
and the ground best adapted for
the purpose usually is worthless
for anything else.-Pomeroy Dem
