New York, Aug. 7. -Laidlaw & Gar

Thursday.
The firm did a commission business
which was not extensive. The failure
was without general importance.
Berlin, Aug. 1.-THE tendency on the

vices regarding Wednesdays situation
in Wall street having no influence on
the market here. Iron shares were

trade, and coal shares were higher.

Thursday, except in the case of gold
mines, which, however, were also af-
fected later, but showed slight i'm
provement at the close of the day.

gamblers for the privilege of operating.
The ministers threw up their hands
in horror at this, and in the next breath
told the mayor that, If he wanted to de-
rive revenue, he should raise the sa-
loon license from s400 to $1,000. In other
words, these pious gentlemen demand
ed Of the mayor that he put a stop to
one form of vice and levy higher tax
against another business that is usually
characterized as quite as vicious. Il
would seem that the ministers should
aim to prohibit the sale of liquor as
well as gambling. From their pulpits
they preach against the liquor traffic,
to which is attributed nearly all do
nestle woes. The inconsistent stand
of the reverend gentlemen indicates
only too plainly that their crusade is
not really an earnest one, but that hay
ing undertaken to force the mayor to
recede from reasonable position, they
purpose carrying their point, even at
the sacrifice of the principle for which
they have heretofore stoutly contended.
The ministers are only cheapenlng re-
ligion by thus dabbling in politics, and
the interests of the public would be
much better subserved if they were to
contine themselves to preaching the
Christiaa faith in their espeetive
churches.

Something for Mothers
to Think About.
Lives of Suffering and
Sorrow Averted
And Happiness and Prosperity
Assured by
CuticuraSoap, Ointment and Pills
When All Else Fails.

Every child born into the world with
an inherited or early developed ten
dency to distressing, disfguring hui
mours of the skin, scalp and blood, be-
comes an object of the most tender So
licitude, not only because of its suffer-
ing, but because of the dreadful fear
that the disfiguration is to be lifelong
and mar its future happiness and pros
perity. Hence it becomes the duty of
mothers of such afflicted children to ac-
quaint themselves with the best, the
purest and most effective treatment
available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment,
Warm baths with Cuticura Soap to
cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and
scales, gentle applications of Cuticura
Ointment, to allay itching, Irritation
and inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent
pills. so cool the blood in the severer
cases, are all that can be desired for the
alienation of the suffering of skin tor
tured infants and children, and the COM
fort of worn-out parents.
Millions of women use Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving; purifying and identifying the
akin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts,
scales and dandruff, and the stopping
Of falling hair, for softening, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore hands,
for baby rashes, itchings and chafings,
in the form of washes for annoying
Irritations and infammations, and for
many sanative, antiseptic purposes

DR.. Felix Adler. DIR. Z. A. Alderman,
president of Tulane University, New

After Mr.. Ogden had reviewed the
work of the two boards, Gov. Mon

behalf of the people of Virginia that
the board had selected Richmond as
the place for its next annual confer
ence.
The educational problem of the peo-
pie of Virginia" he said, lis more
difficult than in the North There is
a considerable revival in education in
my state. Interest in it is stirred up
in the free schools. 1t was very diff
fcult to establish free schools imme-
diately after the Civil War; but that
prejudice is breaking down. Politics
| are becoming eliminated from the
| public school system of the state"
Edgar Gardner Murphy, speaking on
the educational problem of the South,
| said that while the aggregate ex-
penditure on public education through
| out the United States was $20.19 Ner
| capita and in Alaska $17.45, although
| OF the children of Alaska so per cent
were children of the Esquimaux, yet In
Alabama the expenditure was 4.42 and
IN North Carolina only $3.17
We are finding" he said. needs to
meet and tasks to accomplish from the
Esquimaux to the Filipino and from
Porto Rico to Guam, and / say the
| time has come for us to look straight
and clear before us to the home care
OF our own undeveloped citizenship. If
this is not an appeal to our national
government, it is certainly challenge
to national patriotism"
DIR. Wallace Buttrick said: THE
women of the South are making every
sacrifice to welcome teachers, and too
much cannot be said of the negro
teachers. The people of the South are
| spending all their energies and re-
sources in the matter of education to
the negro as we'll as the white chill
