flag as we have been, remembering God
end his teaching, will in the end be
more tilan conquerOrs." The picture
painted by Miss Borroughs in which
she showed the audience our boys
climbing San Juan Hill will live for
ever fresh in the memory of all who
heard it.
A spontaneous outburst of applause
followed the close of this most excel
lent lecture Miss Ella D. Thomas
came forward holding in her hands
most beautiful boquet which she most
fttingIy presented to Miss Borrughs on
behalf of the Alumni Association. The
reply of Miss Borroughs was eloquent
and appropriate. Some high class
selections were rendered by some of
the best musical talent of the school
and the cultured audience dispersed
1t is impossible in an article like
this to give even faint idea or the
greatness of this lecture, and grandeur
of the speakers diction and the ora
toricaI flights which were as easy and
natural as water running from
babIing brook Miss BorrOughs struck

ence if the Negro ever secured their
rights it would be because they had
lived consistent Christian lives in &C
cordance with the teaching of the
Bible
rror,,bodv Ubo iS converSant with
the real conditions South know that
the prejudice to the Negro on account
of color has driven a large number
from their God and has caused every
body to look on his religion with sus-
picion. That you may understand we
note the following: Some time since
two young women of education were
preparing to leave the city. One was
the wife of minister; the other a
teacher A young man of prominence
in church circles, himself teacher
went to the depot to see them off. The
moment he was seen by one OF the
women he was told to return at once
that they were travelling as white
women. Of course this Sunday school
teacher and Christian worker left and
had more respect for his friends and
co-workers than ever before. Ask the
average to repeat the Ten Command
ments, he will do so readily but should
you ask him if it is not a sin against
God and his parents, as we'll, to deny
his race identity thus turning his back
on his own mother just to ride with
white people. seven out of ten will tell
you it is no harm in practicing such
deception. They have not as yet learned
to suffer and bear these unjust dis
ordinations for His sake but they
allow prejudice to force them to lie
and steal more quickly than they will
tell the truth. Every time one denies
n-o race identity regardless of what mo-
tive that may prompt him to do so,
whether it be to ride in a sleeper or
what not he is lieing and stealing a
privilege to which he is not entitled.
If for nothing else his dishonesty
should keep the door of hope forever
closed in his face

Meerschaum Pipes.

"A meerschaum pipe that would have

bring more than $40 now" said to

be fashionable and popular In America
but they are not much sought for 10
day.
ut isn't strange that the liking for
them should have waned. The meer.

Pumice Stone.

Pumice stone is a porous feldspathic
scoria from volcanoes. The pores are
linear and so fine as often to be barely
visible except by means Of magnify
ing glass Its specific gravity is 20 to
2.4-water being the unit-but by rea-
son OF its spongy texture pieces are
often buoyant enough to float on water.
1t consists chiefly of silica, with some
times II per cent of lumina, 6 per cent
Of soda and per cent Of potash. 1t is
of grayish shades of color, passing into
yellow and brown. The chief source
from which 1t is obtained for CONNER
cia purposes is Campo Bianco, one Of
the Lipari Islands, where it forms hill
nearly 1000 feet high. In the arts
pumice is largely employed, mostly in
a pulverized state, as a polishing mate
rial for ivory, wood, glass. marbles. etc.
1t is also used in lump for grinding and
smoothing metallic surfaces, leather,
etc, and in the preparation of parch-
ments, etc. Quantities Of the pulver
tied pumice are used in making fancy
soaps.

EnuIta In Conversation,

Dean Swift once said: There are
two faults in conversation which az.
pear very different. yet arise from the
same root and are equally blamable.
l mean an Impotence to interrupt 9TH
ers and the uneasiness Of being in
terrupted ourselves. The two chief
ends Of conversation are to entertain
and improve those we are among or to
receive those benefits ourselves, which
whoever Will consider cannot possibly
run into either of those two errors, be-
cause when any man speaketh in CONF
pany it Is to be supposed he doth 1t for
his hearers sake and not his own. so
that common discretion will teach US
not to force their attention II they
are not willing to lend 1t, nor. on the
other side, to interrupt him who Is
in possession, because that is In the
grossest manner to give the preference
to our own good sense"

GALVESTON SAFE FROM SEA.
HUGE Sea Wall, Greatest Structure Of
lts Kind in the World, Finished.

Galveston. Tex, Aug. a3-The COM
.pletion Of the Galveston sea wall the
greatest structure of its kind in the
world, was celebrated yesterday by
running excursions from different parts
OF the state to Galveston. Governor
Ianh,asn was present and made an eu-
logistlc address, commenting on the
remarkable work which has been ae-
complished here, Galveston being now
In Lille to seek advantage from, the
unique position of the city as an up 20
date American port and railroad center
nearest OF all TO the Panama canal.
and the natural outlet for the COM
merce of nearly half the United States.
The sea wall was completed the last
Of July. Two granite monuments We're
erected at the foot of fremont street
TO commemorate the completion OF the
wall, and these monuments We're I'M
yelled yesterday. The Galveston sea
wall represents one of the finest pieces
OF engineering work of any kind ever
accomplished in America. The wall is
1888 feet long, 1s feet wide at the
base, feet wide at the top. and stands
IL feet above mean low tide. with
granite riprap apron extending ~ feet
out IN the gulf side. The contract
price OF the wall was s1,19s,31S. The
actual construction of the wall proper
consumed one year, four months and
seventeen days.

eundlal Maxims.

It Is quite an interesting thing to
learn that some of our best known
proverbs and notices were originally
used in connection with sundials. Be
fore the days of watches and clocks,
when dials and sun marks were among
the rude means of reckoning time, 1t
was a prevailing custom to inscribe
them
Among the maxims traceable to this
source are. make hay while the sun
Shines" THE longest day must end
and IAN things do wax and wane."
Sundials spoke the truth, as may be
inferred from. historic one which was
placed on st. Paul's cross, in London.
and which proclaimed, Il number none
but sunny hours" This no one will
doubt who has had occasion to consult
a dial on an overcast day.
A famous dial ih Sussex, England,
bore four famous notices applicable to
the fight of time and the brevity OF
life. They were as follows: After
darkness. light" ALIAS, how swtftp
Il warn whilst move" and $50 passes
life"
Another old sundial spoke petulant-
ly about the same subject in the words,
"Sirrah, be gone about your business"

VIM. Kirmse, member of the bridge
gang working near Littleport was
taken suddenly I'll Thursday night with
cramps and a kind OF cholera. His case
was SO severe that he had to have the
members OF the crew wait upon him,
and Mr.. Clifford was called and con-
suited. He told them he had inedi-
cine In the form of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
that he thought would help him out and
accordingly several doses were admin

was able to be around next day The
