Against an Increase.

An election was held in Anderson on
April upon the question of amending
the city's charter so rs to have two alder
anen from each ward and to increase the
mayors salary to a sum not exceeding
81 800. Each proposition was voted upon
separately and each was defeated by a
good majority. The opposition to the
proposed increase in the mayors salary
was especially strong, as the salary was
not to be fixed at any particular amount,
but was to be left to the discretionary
powers of each council. A light vote
was polled.

A Preacher Much Pleased.

A whist party, in aid Of the new
Highlands parish, was held at the
town hall in Holyoke, Massachusetts,
one night last week. One hundred
and forty-four tables were played
and twelve valuable prizes were
awarded to the best players,
six to the men and six to the women.
James E. Downey, of the High
School faculty, acted as master of
ceremonies, and was assisted by two
other men and ten married women.
Twenty-seven pretty girls kept the
scores, and after the game had closed
there was dancing for an hour or two.
The Rev. John G.. Ivers was much
pleased by the hearty support ac-
corded the party. The clear money
derived by the parish from the play
ing was $500. Whist as an aid TO
religion is something new in church
enterprise; why not have match
game between the Holyoke experts
and the players of Charleston, the
winners to take the money News

[By Francis II. Havergal. I

BY Francis II. Havergal.
1 attend church on rainy Sundays
because,
l.. God has blessed the Lords day
and hallowed it, making no excep-
tions for hot or cold or stormy days.
2. l expect my minister to be
there. I should be surprised if he
were to stay at home for the weather.
3. If his hands fail through weak
ness, l shall have great reason to
blame myself, unless l sustain him
by my prayers and presence.
4. BY staying away / may lose the
prayers which may bring Gods
blessing, and the sermon that would
have done me great good.
5. My presence is more needful on
Sundays when there are few than on
those days when the church is
crowded.
6. Whatever station | hold in the
church, my example must influence
others. If | stay away why may not
they?
Z. On any important business
rainy weather does not keep me at
home, and church attendance is, in
Gods sight, very important.
8. Among the crowds of pleasure
seekers | see that no weather keeps
the delicate female from the ball, the
party, or the concert.
8. Such weather will show me on
what foundation my faith is built; it
will prove how much | love Christ.
True love rarely fails to meet an
appointment.
10. Those who stay from church
because it is too warm or too cold or
too rainy frequently absent them
selves on fair Sundays. must not
take step in that direction.
IL. Though my excuses satisfy my
self, they must still undergo Gods
scrutiny; and they must be vel
grounded to do that.
II. There is special promise that
where two or three meet together in
Gods name He will be in the midst
of them.
13. An avoidable absence from the
church is an infallible evidence of
spiritual decay. Disciples first fol-
low Christ at distanc, and then, like
Peter, do not know Him.
IA. My faith is to besshown by my
self-denying Christian life, and not
by the rise or fall of the thcrmome-
ter.
10. Such yielding to surmountable
difficulties prepares for yielding to
those merely imaginary, until thous-
ands never enter church, and yet
think they have good reason for
such neglect.
lG. | know not how many more
Sundays God may give me, and it
would be a poor preparation for my
first Sunday in heaven to have
slighted my last Sunday on earth.

The total losses of the Russians at
Mukdcn in killed, wounded and missing
is now given by the Russian authorities
as agrcgating 100000. AT the lower esti-
mate of the Russian forces engaged this
means a loss of practically one third of
their army, while even with the higher
estimate the loss would be at least one
fourth. This is a tremendous percentage
of losses. An army which has suffered
such stupendous disaster must require
months for rcpletion and reorganization.
