TO RETAIN WAR TROPHIES.
The Sandoval and Alvarada Will Not
Be Sold

The small gunboats Alvarado and Sando-
val which were captured in Cuban waters
during the Spanish-American war will not
be sold as had been intended, but instead
Will be put in condition for service by the
naval militia They are both at the navy
yard. Norfolk, where they will undergo
necessary repairs. The Navy Department
has decided to assign one of these vessels
most probably the Alvarado, to Louisiana
for the use of the naval militia of that state
The transfer will be made about the 18th
instant and the Louisiana militiamen will
be expected to take the small gunboat from
Norfolk around the coast to New Orleans.
1t is not yet settled to which state the re-
naming gunboat will be transferred. These
two vessels have been recently stationed at
the Naval Academy for the instruction of
midshipmen in firing torpedoes and small
gun target practice.

Quotation From a Report.


Continuing, Mr.. Fshburn said ''You will
not account me immodest if l read para
graph from the annual report of the cor
responding secretary of the New Jersey as
ISOLATION. which includes in it's member
ship the sixty 900 Congregational churches
of New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia and the
District of Columbia. for it is of your work
rather than of mine that the report speaks.
Mr.. c. L. Goodrich. the secretary, says
The records show that there is not only
a new building, but a continual reception
of new people in the Mt Pleasant church
This is by far the largest accession re-
ported by any church in the association.
But when we look back in the records We
see that eighty-four were received last
year: so we observe that Mt Pleasant has
gotten into the habit of receiving over
eighty members year. May the good habit
, never be broken. That so vigorous church
is thus increasing in strength in our ma
tional capital is a matter of rejoicing for
US all "
In conclusion Mr.. Fishburn said:
Grateful as we have reason to be today,
we must not permit ourselves to be satisfied
with past achievements, because progress
of all sorts Is dependent upon the recogni-
ton of heights above as.yet unreached
because the need of such service as this
church can render was never greater than
today. If there was work for the Mount
Pleasant Church to do in 1886, much greater
is the demand in 1906; because to use a
commercial phrase, we must protect the in
vestment We have made"

Nothing Absolutely Forgotten.

ten in the sense of being out of mind but
nothing in the sense that it cannot be re-
called Memory constitutes our identity
and gives to life its personal cohesion
Referring to the caprices of memory, Mr..
Fishburn declared that no other faculty
of the mind is so neXplicable in it's opera
tons; yet we know that association is a
powerful stimulation to memory. 1T is
the influence of association" he said, that
will furnish us with the rest of our sermon
this morning.
This is an anniversary day. and by as
ISOLATION we are reminded of the scenes of
other years"
Rev. Mr.. Fishburn, continuing, depicted
several of the most conspicuous events of
the twenty years history of the Mt
Pleasant Church-of it's organization in
1856, "a modest frame structure standing
apart upon a village street" He paid
tribute to the faithful and fruitful service
of the first pastor, Rev. Charles H. Small
who increased the membership from 80
to 12S, remaining with the church until the
beginning of Mr.. Fishburn's pastorate in
1884

LEARNING TO MiLr
How Frank Wiides Is Treadinq the
Path Of Agriculture

OF late years Mr. Frank Wildes. the
Deputy State Treasurer, has been an
inclination to tread the primrose path
OF agriculture.
Actuated by this idea he purchased
a Jersey COW and then attached an
Indian 10 his household TO seperate
milk from the animal.
In little while the COW became
household pet and was giving ten
quarts OF milk day almost pure
cream.
With so much milk on hand and
surplus OF cream Mrs. Wildes began
sending the product to the home diary
10 the neighhors.
lin a short time every one in the
vicinity was praising the excellence
of the milk and cream which flowed
gratuitously from the Wildes house
hold.
About this time the Indian heard
the call of the wild and returned to
his primitive environments. He betook
himself to the tall timber in the
vicinity OF Markleville and Wolf Creek
and his bunk n the wood shed was
vacant.
Wildes hunted the city fer a milk
naid but found her not. But being
full of native resources ne concluded
20 attend to the milking h mself.

left the man and the pail. To make
a long story short he put in two hours
