Iohn b. DeMotte.

No more popular lecturer than Prof.
John B. Denote ever stood upon the
platform of Assembly Hall and his
second appearance there Monday eve
ming was greeted by a large audience.
Prof. Denote is eloquent at times, but
it is not so much as an orator as a great
teacher that he stands pre-eminent. He
founded his lecture upon the biggest
word in the English language. "habit,"
and his revelations were not only start
ling but so forcibly and plainly stated
that they will linger long in the minds
OF his auditors, and perhaps in the case
of the younger ones, prevent many a
downfall in future life. His warnings
and pleadlngs were rendered doubly
impressive by the aid of illustrations
thrown on a screen.

ry, was only a short distance from his
father when the explosion occurred.
Mr.. Allison, who was a man about
forty-five years of age, came to Ashe-
