It simply meant that our hostess was giving a dance with as many Dutch accompaniments as she could comfortably crowd upon us. We danced and we danced, or rather jumped about, for wooden shoes arc not conducive to and then the real Dutch part of tho fair became apparent. It was time for refreshment, but instead of ice cream, cake, sand coffee, salads and the like the servants brought in beer, pretzels, bread stuffed with seeds, Frank- sausages, sauerkraut, head cheese, bologna, cheesecake, apple cake and every other old Dutch dish you can think of. certainly was all a novelty, but not the sort of novelty I care about.

The Old Proverb a Little a Exemplified, Tho Thrifty A Bank Hook Pupil at n to Shall we be pardoned for repeating the old Scottish proverb a little makes a It Is no true in its teaching of thrift that It. to be impressed upon every person, young and old, for no one is too old to begin to save. The basis of the prosperity of the French people is their thrift. Of course, says the Youth's Companion, not every French man and woman saves and puts by something, but the practice Is nearly universal. It seems true, that those who earn the least, and who ate forced pinch and screw the hardest to give themselves food, shelter and clothing of some sort, form the great class. At the end of 1893, Hie public and private savings banks of France had more than eight million depositors, and the amount standing to their credit was three and three-quarters billion francs. Yet this vast sum bout equal to the net public debt of the United made up of little accounts which average but four hundred and sixty francs, or ninety-two dollars each. To save money is one of the sons French schools. A savings-bank book, with a small sum to Credit of the owner, is a prize commonly given to a bright pupil, in cases when an American school give tho money out- right, or n book, or a bicycle. Moreover, millions of French who do not trust the banks have money saved in old stockings and in discarded teapots. The accumulation of savings by n community doubly beneficial. The person who saves has some- thing by a rainy the community has a fund which can be lent at home. When savings banks exist and are generally pat- it i-i not necessary for the people to look to capitalists in other states fur money to be borrowed on mortgages at exorbitant rates. They can borrow of the local bank. and can have the satisfaction of feeling that the interest they pay goes to their own neighbors. This has been the experience not only In the large cities of the east em states, but also in the factory towns where savings banks are es- and where a vast majority of the depositors are the who work for an average wage of not much more than a dollar s day. In some parts of the tho form of endeavor Is morn common than we suppose it to be there is a systematic effort to teach the poorest people to save. have in mind a friendly society made up of ladies, each of whom has taken under her oversight three or four families in which the father Is a drunkard, or the mother a widow, or where there are many young children. The. lady visits each family once a week, makes all the members her friends, and encourages them to save something and It to her.

Of course, there are many people cannot but there ore more who do. not because think they cannot. What we have said is for the benefit of the second class, who are apt to ascribe their ties to any cause rather than tho real one. For the class can have nothing but sympathy, and a wish for better times and stances. If who can save were to do so, and were to mass their savings for the common good, they would deal tho most blow possible at the power of the great capitalists, whoso accumulations pf wealth ore believed, by many persons to be one of the great dangers of the time.

A few weeks ago there was a bureau report as to the cotton acreage which placed de- crease for this year at only about per cent. At the time that report was believed to be far from correct.

Dr. Bailey was one of the most prominent preacher-editors the State. Ho was for nearly twenty years of the Recorder, tho leading Baptist journal of the State, and one of the foremost exponents of that de nomination in the South. He was an able, original and interesting writer and made of the Recorder a great newspaper as well as a popular denominational organ. He occupied a high place in the councils of his church, was a safe, conservative and wise leader. During his twenty in Raleigh he endeared himself to our people generally, was held the highest es- teem by them. He was a pro- found thinker, a scholar, an able preacher, a fearless, pungent, in- editor, an honest, up- right man and a genial amiable friend and neighbor. Dr. Bailey was born in Williamsburg, Va. lie was educated at William and Mary and at the Richmond Col- of Virginia, he entered the ministry immediately on the com- of his education, but was during the last two years of the war, a private in the Confederate army. After the war was over he re-entered tho ministry, and after serving several leading churches, he was called to Edenton, N. C From here he went to Warrenton, and was pas- tor of the Baptist Church there, when called to the editorial chair of the Biblical Recorder. He was a very charming man, was full of good humor and good cheer. It was his nature to look on the bright side of life, and although his latter days have been filled with intense suffering, ha has born, these sufferings with Chris fortitude characteristic patience- Dr. Bailey was stricken with paralysis on March 1892, from which he never fully recovered although up to a year ago he was able to look after his work- Dur- the past year he has been gradually growing weaker, and the fact that his valuable life was fast ebbing away has been known to his family and friends for several months- The end came morning one of the brightest minds went out, one of the noblest hearts ceased beating and one of the States best citizens was no more. Dr. Bailey leaves a widow, who was Miss Annie S- Briley, of three sous, Messrs. C. T. Bailey, J. William Bailey, who succeeded his father as editor of the Recorder, E.

WASHINGTON LETTER. our Regular Washing HO, June 1895. President Cleveland surprised a great many people when he tendered the Secretaryship of to Attorney but there was nothing about it to those who are with the workings of the ad- ministration. On the contrary, it appears to them to have been the logical thing to do. Attorney General is thoroughly fa- with the foreign policy of the government. Indeed, it is not stretching tho truth to say that he had a hand in th form of that policy, as ho was in constant consultation with President Cleveland and the late Secretary Gresham any important move was contemplated What then was more natural than that he should be selected to fill the vacancy He is thoroughly familiar with all the unfinished negotiations now pending with various countries, more so than an able outsider could possibly become after months of It is altogether probable that Mr. would have preferred re- at the head of the Depart- of Justice he consider- ed it merely as a question of per- preference.

THE TO DECISION. Justice Clack Dissents in a Powerful and Convincing Opinion. We print below the dissenting opinion of Justice Clark the case of manufacturing company which embraced the question of fraud in haying the presiding officers the sign a bill which never pass ed the Legislature. Justice Avery concurs in the dissent, but the agree and there- fore the law cannot be reviewed by any court. case resembles much that vs. at this investigation of tho same fraud being asked, and it is unnecessary to repeat the reasons given the dissenting opinions filed that ease. In this case the plaintiffs claim under an assignment outed in accordance with the laws heretofore in force in this State and which legislature after including the present one, has declined to alter. The plain- tiffs contend that such assign- is valid, and that their rights are not affected by the tended which after being defeated on its pas- sage in the present General As- was surreptitiously fraud- procured to be signed by a deception practiced on the Speakers. The action was dis- missed below on the ground that, taking the allegations to be true and indeed they were not controverted on the the Court had no to right great wrung and fraud. It would seem that certainly tho Speakers of the two should have been allowed to that this fraud had been practiced on and that their signatures had and intentionally placed to a bill which they knew had boon passed, but which had defeated. This was due to thorn, to tho legislature to the The people are entitled, as a sacred and inviolable right, to be governed by no laws save those enacted by their duly and legally bled- The act of a corrupt and hired villain, whose proper place is tho should by no process of reasoning or re- of logic be imposed on the people, in express to a vote of their General Tho power of dated, wealth, acting through the channel of a and hire ling lobby, is a growing evil in all American legislation- The solemn and unmistakable issue in this ease, brushing aside all tech- is simply Shall the law be what tho of the people declare it shall be, or shall the of pow- menacing of capital acting through the lobbyists, with which they every where legislative action, override and be substituted for the popular will To a fearful extent this, has the result in Congress and in m my leg- but by more devious methods. This is the first in Stance in which one of these combinations, to secure its end by legislation in the usual mode, has and cynically defied tho action of the General Assembly and set aside its negative vote by fraudulently substituting the defeated bill as a genuine one, and procuring the unintentional signatures of the Speakers. the first time in American history accumulated capital and its hirelings have dared to take so bold a step- We are asked to fay that such is the power of the Courts- The plaintiffs have no power to call the legislature to- and they may be unable satisfy the Governor that their wrongs, as they are, are to tax the public with the expensive precedent of re sum- the legislature the fraud of a lobbyist is There is an easy, a cheap and speedy remedy by setting aside the signatures, as fraud- the testimony of the Speakers to that effect and the of a jury.

It is also necessary to teach it the use of Its hands, and how to help it- self to food and the other needs of its physical existence. The majority of parents think it obligatory upon them to teach it ways in which to for its everyday wants; but it is rare, in- deed, to find those who make a study of Instructing tho little ones in things that pertain to accidents and the unusual affairs of everyday life. There arc persons of whom it may truthfully be said that they are never at a loss in emergencies. They have self-reliance, executive ability, and that quickness of that makes them invaluable in sudden need, or when disaster or calamity overtake a community. We am wont to look upon this as inherent, or, as we express it, a natural gift. It be inter- to note the result of careful training on these lines, and see whether mental alertness, the ability to weigh, and judge decide with precision and dispatch, is not as as the power to stand on one's feet, use the beau shooter with unerring aim, bring down the small bird from tho bough with a pebble, or an bull-frog with a stick whittled to a point. The great trouble in matters of this sort is that children arc not de- in this direction. Once in awhile a parent thinks it of sufficient importance to teach his child a course of conduct proper in times of danger or when there is demand for action and no time to work out the problem. When public and private schools began tho fire drill, the training that enabled the teachers to clear a schoolroom In incredibly short time without a the idea was ridiculed by a great many persons, but there are numbers of instances when this sort of drill has saved life and prevented those horrible casualties that shock communities and leave heart-break- vacancies in families. Some years ago a man who lived on the shore of a large body of water made up his mind that there should be no deaths by drowning in his family. So gradually he accustomed the children to the water, and, after some practice, was able to throw little his head into surf. He taught them to change somewhat the name way us does the cat, In order they might fall lo such shape as to receive no injury. Timid at first, yet con- pf tho rescuing power of their lather's band, they gained courage, until feats of somersaulting from his shoulders were tho wonder of the community. Before the were ten years old there was scarcely an accident or emergency along the coast that they were not able to understand and meet with the quickness and comprehensiveness of veterans. On more than one occasion they were the means of saving life, and once, in a driving year-old boy in a cork jacket organ- a life-saving brigade that brought a yacht into a safe harbor, which otherwise would have to pieces on a project- rocks. is claimed by many that it is entirely possible to teach children to meet indeed, that they are much easily taught than when they have grown up and formed the habit of inactivity and the dumb terror that strikes unreasoning human and many animals. To stand paralyzed with fear is the least de- of the dreadful in It often means per- peril and the destruction of all that Is near and dear. It is a wise parent who teaches mental alertness along with the first lessons in setting the little feet If safe Y. Ledger. W. i. SHOE K Over One wear W. L. Douglas and Shoes. All arr for th.
