CHEST OF SILVER Is
 PRESENTED MR. CRlGGS

The watch is of Swiss movement and was also handsomely engraved. On the case was engraved the date and the fact of the presentation by the men connect ed with the railroad to Mr. Griggs. The fob Is also engraved handsomely
 Just about fifteen years ago the of fieials and employees of the Alabama Great Southern presented Mir. Griggs with a silver service when he went to the Cincinnati Southern from the Alabama Great Southern. and he still has this set. It matches in many ways the chest of silver presented yesterday. There are a number of people connected with the railroad now who were present when the silver service was given him. and they state that fifteen years ago when he was surprised with the token of esteem he was so touched that he could hardly speak, and he was practically the same way yesterday. He thanked those pres ent in a few words and asked them to convey his thanks to the large number of employees who were unable to come to the house. He again expressed his great friendship for every one connected with the road and said how much he appreciated the gift because it showed the friendship of his former associates towards him.

mind of the father about his child tomor- economy of grace. If anyone of you had known at the beginning of your life the burdens you were to bear, your en- ergy would have all have been consumed before you took your burdens up. If some fathers could have seen the dis- grace that was to be linked with the life of their sons they would have slept in their graves ere this day. 1t is true that in nature God has laid up what we need William Shakespeare used to light people to the theatre by a torch. then London was a village, now London is a. great city and electricity lights her streets. The coal beds have been discovered just when the woods of the earth semed to be ex- hausted, So all Gods treasures have been found just as man has come to his new needs. When you come to the Alpine hill tomorrow God will put the Alpine stock in your hand. When you come into the waters the next day He will be with you. but if you undertake to bear the bur dens today that belong to next year you will be worn before God calls for your strength As l look into the faces of men I think I understand the difference between youth and age. It Is because age has born the burdens for keeping youth. A man might be young at the age of Moses if he did not know how to love and how to have his soul knit to that which springs from his loins, but Moses and all the fathers have slept their long sleep after being well worn in preparing the way of those who were to come after. What is in store for you do not know. Only God knows, and he has been kind enough not to tell you. He tells one and all live today and take no thought for the morrow, for sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof"

 The presentation was made at the resi- dence of Mr. Griggs and number of the representatives of the railroad were present. The gifts were surprise to MT. Griggs and he showed great feeling when they were presented by A. G. Smith, at torney for the railroad
 There was probably no more popular railroad man ever located in Birmng- ham than MT. Grlggs, and every one con- nected with the railroad from the high est official to the lowest section hand felt that he had a true friend in the superintendent. When his resignation was announced there was feeling of gen uine regret all over the road. and every official and employe felt as if he would like to take part in presenting MT. Griggs with some token of their esteem.
 The chest of silver contains 147 pieces of the handsomest design and was the

AMUSEMENT
East Lake Casino.

The Chattanooga Times has the follow ing to say about Cinderella" the musi- cal comedy at the Casino all this week;
 Last night the Olmypia park theatre was opened for the summer season be- fcre large audience with Y. C. Alleys production of Cinderella" The piece had been seen during the regular season at tho opera house, and there have been but few changes in the production since that time except that Miss Julia Foreman has been succeeded in the title role by Miss Fife Leah Francis, an exceptionally cleV- CT little actress.
 The musical comedy is based on the ancient story of Cinderella, the fairy god- mother and the handsome prince, and the plot of the piece differs little from the story everyone heard in childhood's hap plest days. Numerous vaudeville special ties and songs are introduced in the course of the evening which seemed to delight the audience immensely, while clever effects aid in making the produc- ton one of interest"
 Cinderella" will be given every night this week with matinees Tuesday Thurs day and Saturday.

TELLS BY
 THEIR SLEEP

"I can tell by my little ones sleep when a cold is coming on' said a mother when speaking of the advance symptoms of colds in children. :" They toss about, are rest less, their breathing is heavy and there are symptoms of night sweats. The next morn ing l start with Scott's Emul- sion. The chances are that in a day or two they are all over it. Their rest is again peaceful and the breathing normal"
 Here's a suggestion for all mothers. Scott's Emul- sion always has been almost magical in its action when used as the ounce of preven- ton. Nothing seems to over- come child weakness quite so effectively and quickly as Scott's Emulsion.

GRADUATES HEAR
 A STRONG SERMON
THE REV. DR. J. A. DUNCAN BREACHES COMM ENT SERMON TO THE BIRMINGHAM SEMINARY.

The Rev. pr. J. A. Duncan preached the commencement sermon of the Bir- mingham seminary yesterday morning at the First Methodist church. In spite of the rainy weather the church was filled before the hour of service.
 The pupils of the Birmingham seminary occupied the seats in the center of the church. The choir was composed of a chorus from the school and excellent music was rendered.
 Dr. Duncan took "The Worldly Woman" for the subject of his address. He spoke os the worldly woman, not in the com mon meaning of the phrase, he said, but of the woman who spent too much of her time in an endeavor to shine" in society. His text was: But she that liv- eth in pleasure is dead while she liveth. !"
 He dscriminated between pleasure and happiness. Happiness, he said, never came from anything below one, but was to be found only in those things which were above us. His sermon was considered strong and practical and appropriate to the occasion.

is a time when we see that medately God made the coal at one time, and cer-
 tain strata of rock at another time and according to the fitness of things in His own mind he made man when he had
 fixed the world for man to live in. It IS no evidence of piety for man to put
 faith in what common sense denies
 There are infinite spaces for faith and
 if I mistake not men are coming now
 to more intelligent faith than this
 world eyer knew. They are going to be- lieve in heaven and hell because they make the necessary antithesis in intel ligent thought. They are going to be- lieve in God because the hand of the Maker is seen in every law that they find in nature. They are going to be- lleve in the presence of the Father be- cause they see Gods hand upon every atom that makes the universe, and there fore they are going to lift their hands in
 prayer for their little children because He who makes the atom and colors the flower will never forget those in whom He has breathed the breath of life, and upon whom He has stamped His own image. I speak this way not for you who are fathers, but for the sake or your sons to whom l must speak In my day and my generation, who will not read, and if they read will not be gov erned by the books that you read, but who read new books and yet who love the old truth and who worship your God, and yet serve Him who makes 1t rain by law and still moves in the south by Jesus Christ who is over all and above
