Anecdote OF Lady Constance Stewart
Richardson and the Awkward
Young Man.

Lady Constance Stewart Richard

danced over here some time ago. has

told the queen to stand out of the

Lady Constance, you know. is cana.
BILE OF anything. They are telling an
anecdote about her at the Bath club.
She was walking in Picadilly the
other day-so the anecdote runs-and
young man attempted TO pass her
on the right, when she also turned
that way. The young man then veered
TO the left, and Lady Constance did
the same. And there they stood for
minute or more. overcome BY that
RIDICULOUS something which makes two

Violin Brings Farmer Wealth.

Finding himself suddenly possessed
OF violin evidently OF great value
Charles Riley, a Gettysburg farmer
OF moderate circumstances, is now
happy over the turn of affairs which
he believes has freed him for the rest
OF his life from financial worries. The
violin was supposed to be worthless
and came to him in the distribution of
his fathers personal effects.
Riley thought little of the instru.
ment until he wes offered $50 for II.
He then suspected that It might be
worth more, and refused the offer.
Gradually the would-be purchaser in
creased his offer until IL reached
$1,000, which Riley still refused.
Later In the day an effort was made
by another person to buy the violin.
but Riley is holding on to It until he
can obtain more. The instrument
bears the date "1703," which is carved
on II. His father purchased II at a
public sale.

The criticism had been directed to-

represented dead gray sea upon

DEPARTURE OF REV. WILLIAMS.

After a pastorate entering upon the
fourth year, Rev. w. C. Williams OF
Campbell A. NJ. E. church, left the
city this week for Kansas City where
he has been assigned by Bishop Parks
to take charge of Ebenezer church.
This charge is a large one, and one
which has both material opportunl-
ties and a sentimental interest for
Rev. Williams since it was in 1t that
he was married, converted and in
which he served as Sunday school su-
perintendent before he entered the
ministry.
The news that he was leaving the
city while forecasted in the States
man several weeks ago was officially
announced only last Sunday and
created profound regret in the
minds of his congregation and the
friends he has made since coming
here. Both for his personality and
for the work he has done. his leaving
is regretted. UP to the time that he
took Campbell church in charge, it
had a limited congregation which had
its hands full maintaining itself. With
his pastorate, it began to grow and
became strong financially so that it
rate unforeseen and greater than its
best wishers would have imagined
possible. 1t has been redecorated in
side and out, new stained glass win
dows of Biblical design put in, ce-
ment walks laid, property fenced in
with iron fencing, carpeted, choir loft
built, and in fact, every detail that
could lend to the beauty or dignity OF
lne church looked after with consum-
ate skill. Praise in words is easily
bestowed, but words are empty in
praise of the pastorate of Rev. Will
liams when compared with the reju-
venated and glorified church which
he leaves. He carries with him to
Kansas City the best wishes of Den
yer. Mrs William and the boys will
remain in Denver a few months until
school is over.
The successor is not yet named, and
further than an intimation that it
will be a man from outside the Colo
rado Conference, nothing can be said.

NOTICE..

Building Laborers' Union No. 1 is
composed of white as well as colored
members. 1t is one organization
which has done it's work for the class
of labor it represents and has not
stopped at color line in the doing.
Therefore it was a grave injustice to
tue loyal white members it has when
it was said in this paper last week
that Eureka hall was the result OF the
laborers of the union and was the
first building for entertainment pur-
poses erected by colored persons in
this city. By implication its white
members were ignored, and this cor
rection is made to do them justice.
