REBELS HOLD
 ONLY PASS
MINISTER OF WAR IS SHUT OFF AND UNABLE TO MOVE HIS
 FORCES OF 10000.
Third Brigade nf Imperial Troops Fired on oy the Rebels and Then stampedes Away From Fir.
 ing to the North.

Picking, Oct. 21 General Yin Tchang. the war minister who Is in the neighborl,ood Of Sin Rang Chau, in Human Province. has completed the mobolization of 10000 men, but the opinion is held here that he has reason for the present to begin an advance against the reyolutionar- ies holding the towns of Wm Chang. Han Gang and Hankow.
 The provinces of Yu Yang and l4u Peh are divided by a high range oi hills, through which the only pass for many miles Is traversel by the railway. It is reported that this pass is held by the rebels, who have post ed many guns. They are supposed to have cut off 5000 Imperial troops, which are fleeing norwards from Hankow.
 The government first mentioned Kwang Tchang's mobilization, but evidently the war minister has been content to assemble his forces on tine north side of the hills.
 The pass is believed to be impas- sable by the troops of Yin Tchang. Whether he will reinforce them Is questionable, because of growing feeling that it will be necessary to
 retain all available forces near Picking as possible.
 It is stated significantly that Yin Tchang intends to perfect his organ ization before advancing against the rebels holding IIwang Chow, whicl is some miles below EianlSow, at the narowest point of the Yang Tss Kiang.
 A reliable report has reached here that on the morning of October 12 the third bridage of government troops arriving at the Liu Chia Mao sta- tions were fired on by rebels with 3G fieeld guns #liefeapon the whole bridage stampeled to the north. The provincial troops hastened to their aid, but without avail as the route could not be checked.
 The same advices add that the bri- gade had no option but to return 10 |Sin Yang Chanu anl await reinorce- |ments. Lieu Chaimo Is about 65 miles northeast of kwang Shui aEu It is therefore evident, if the report of the route is true, that the govern ment does not hold Kwang shui.

Halloween Entertainment.

On the "spoolky' night of
Hallow zen, the Seniors of High
School entertained the fresh
men, sopmores and juniors in
the spacious auditorium of the
school. The invitations were
artistically decorated with fan
tastic witches, black cats and
read thus:
We seniors would invite we
On the night of Hallow zen
To put We on the funniest dress
That ever we have seen,
And rally at the schoolhouse,
SO merrily bedight,
And be not late,
But come at eight,
On the aforesaid night.
Now strive to look the best fall,
If we would win a prize,
Which will reward the cleverest
clad,
And will have much fun besides.
A ghost will meet We at the door,
But let this not deter We
Ifye will but present this card,
Much pleasure lies before ye."
The guests were received by a
tall ghost who sent cold shivers
down their backs by informing
them that the worms were call
ing him and other hints of news
quite as alarming Huge pump
kin lights shed gloomy rays over
the scene, making the shadows
loom up in weried manner.
The grand march was quite a
ludicrous affair, being made ur
of the witches, gypsies, ghosts,
mill1maids, clowns, etc.
Miss clyde Stringfellow> re-
ceived the prize, a dainty picture,
she being considered the "clev-
crest clad. Her cap and gown
were ingeniously adorned in
grinning jack 'o-lanterns.
In one CORNER a gypsy kept
guard over tent in which a
fortune teller resided. This per,
son, cleverly versed in the art
of witchcraft, was a popular fea-
ture of the entertainment.
All found fun in ducking fol
apples, biting apples suspended
from strings, and telling THEN
fortunes by candles.
Eats" were served on a long
table. A huge jack o lantern
surrounded by black cats, made
a fitting centerpiece. Large
bowls of fruit, peanuts, candies
and sandwiches were in album
dance.

Basket Ball Team.

The girls of the High School
have redently organized basket
ball team which will, it is hoped,
help the girls a great deal physi-
cally. Goals, backstops and a
ball have been purchased.
Much enthusiasm has been
kindled. The girls have already
derived much good from the
game. AS they come into the
school room from play their
rosy cheeks plainly show the
pleasure they take in it. The
girls are now busy getting suits
made, which will enable them
to play with more freedom. A
good basket ball team is quite
an addition 90 a school Then

A Mothers Meetinf.

Every Thursday which j. the
fourth one in the month, the "
/ G.. r. L. studies problems which
are helpful to mothers. Mrs
Preston is superintendent OF
this department.
Last Thursday they met with
Mrs. Allen Urquhart. Mrs.
Preston had chosen for her sub
ject, The Evils Which Threaten
Our Girls" The different la.
dies were called on to suggest
these evils, which were then
generally discussed.
INSINCERITY, was shown to
tempt them at home and at
school, causing them to copy ex-
amples they had not worked,
and in many other ways to de-
ceive teachers and parents. In
sincerity made them untrue to
their friends, talking of their
faults when they were absent.
Insincerity destroyed the ster-
ling foundation necessary for
stability of character and made
the aim of life low and selfish.
IRREvERENCE was brought to
light as a crying menace, caus-
ing our girls to think lightly of
Gods house and of His com
mands. Age is not venerated.
Parents are treated with con
tempt. Teachers are not re
spected. To some, nothing
seems holy.
LOVE OF DRESS was discussed
as an Evil Spirit which poisons
even our children and causes I'M
happiness in those too poor to
display fine apparel,
Many parents cultivate animal
Indulgence in their children by
giving them money to spend at
recrss for k-knacks, and by
allowing them to buy confecuion-
cry even on credit. Whose fault
is it if the want of self-control
results later in grave misdemean-
OrS?
READING NOVELS was spoken
of as another destructive evil.
That habit Injuries the desire for
better intellectual food; it en-
courages bad habits; it waists
time; it causes duties to be neg
lected; it gives false ideals Of
life; it destroys happiness, and
weakens character. Nea | y
every criminal able to read has
been a novel reader.
The child's higher nature is
injured by such picture shows
as as appeal to mere animal ex-
element and by those which ex,
hibit crime and outlaws, such as
the story of Jesse James. This
play is prohibited in many
places.
A committee was appointed to
request the manager of the NOV
ing pictures to discard all not
elevating in their influence.
The meeting was closed with
an impressive prayer.
