NswS OF the Day.

It is said that in Philadelphia there
is vegetarian church" and its meet
ing house in that city is the only one
Of the sect in America. Though this
church has but the one meeting house
on the Continent, and only forty mem
bers, it dates back nearly 100 years.
Their records during the time, cover.

average longevity Of a member OF the
sect is 81 years. He is not. in his old
age, obliged to resort to false teeth.

corpulence or emaciation. He is Singh
larry free from rheumatism and from
dyspepsia. The church supports d

men, where 1t is possible to live at 81

10000 guests with lodging and 460. 900

A great deal of this advancement is
directly attributable, individually and
collectively, to the efforts Of the rail
lines traversing the Southern terri
tory. With the rise of the South came
also the natural expansion Of these
railroads, and 1t is interesting to note
the progress in this direction when
we compara the gl eat systems Of to-
day with those we remember in their
infancy. In glancing ever the situation
We notice particularly the SeabOard
Air Line Railway, whose parent stem
less than fifteen years ago tapped only
Virginia and North Carolina. At that
time, lumber and its by-products were
the principal commodities: and we
have also watched with interest the
progress OF this Tine in escaping from
its narrow confines and developing
into the wonderful system which 1t
is today. BY building and consolida-
ton the once small line now pene-
trates almost the entire South, reach
ing the capitals Of Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida and Alabama, and from its
limited lumber trade now engages in
the transportation OF almost every
known article of manufacture, as well
as the products Of agriculture. for
which the South Is noted. The natural
resource of the South has been in cot
ton and while We would not seek to
depreciate the real worth of this
staple and its value to us; there is
70 denying the fact that the wealth
Of iron ore and coal found in the
South has been the important feature.

DIR. HALLS READING.
Contribution for Benefit Of National
Junior Republic.

Rev Edward Everett Hale, the venerable
scholar and author read the story of Philip
Nolan, THE Man Without a Country"
before q select audience yesterday after
noon at the National Theater. The reading
was given for the benefit of the National
Junior Republic. DR.. Hale came to this
city about a week ago to deliver his an
nual sermon at the Unitarian Church. He
makes 1t a practice to visit Washington at
least once each year and to occupy the
pulpit of All Souls Church one Sunday
during the year. He is one of the most dis
tnguished Unitarian clergymen in the
country, and although he is not actively
engaged in the ministry at present. there
are no churches of the Unitarian faith
that are not open to him at any time he de-
S1reST to deliver a sermon DR.. Hale had no
intention of delivering lecture or giving
a reading when he first came to Washing
ton, his only purpose being to preach once.
Attracted by the aims and objects of the
Junior Republic, however, he was very
easily persuaded to read, in the presence
of his large circle of admirers, the story
of the unfortunate man who was sentenced
to wander over the face of the earth and
never hear the name of his native country.
The National Theater was comfortably
filled when Rev. U. S. G. Pierce, pastor of
All Souls Church, introduced DR.. Hale.
Mr.. Pierce said that DR.. Hale was prac-
tcally unable to quit work, although he
was on a pleasure excursion. Inc speaker
told of the cause of the visit of the vener-
able minister to this city, and said that 1t
was only the high aims and objects of the
Junior Republic that persuaded him to
forego his own pleasure for the enjoyment
of others.
DR.. Hale said. in explanation Of the story
of THE Man Without Country that the
narrative was written during the civil war.
when there was so great discussion as to
local rights. During the political battles
that took place prior to the war some man.
whose name is not now known, forgot him.
self for moment and vehemently ex-
pressed the wish that he had not been born
in the United States. About this incident,
said DR.. Hale, he had written his story, al
though he had placed the time of the tale
many years before the civil war, about the
time of the Aaron Burr plot The eminent
divine read the story without affectation in
most pleasing manner, and was greeted
with prolonged applause when he had fin
