THE CHILDTS PRAYER.
The following beautiful verses, writ-
ten over forty years ago by the late
Hodges Reed, are reprinted from the
Boston Transcript :
Inte her chamber went
A little maid one day,
And by a chair she knelt
And thus began to pray :
oJesus, iny vyes I close"
Thy fori Icanu: t see;
If thou «rt near hear me, Lord,
I pray thee speak to me.�
A still smuil voice she heara within her,
soul,
oWhat is it, child? I hear thee"teil
Me ali.�T
oI pray Thee, Lord,� she said.
~That [hou wilt coudescend
To tarry i. my heart |
And ever be my iriend.
The path of life is dark"
1 woula not go astray ;
On, let me have Phy hand
To lead me iu ihe way.�T
~Fear nut"I will not leave thee, child,
aloue.�T
She thought she felt a soft hand press
her own.
~oThéy tell me, Lord, that all
The living pass away"
the aged sv0n must die,
And ven childrea may,
Oh, let my p:ireuts live
Till [ a woman grow ;
For # they die, what can
A little orphan du?
oFear nut, my-child"whatever ills may
Cutlic,
Ill not forsake thee till I bring thee
home.� .
Her li tle prayer was said
And frum her chainber, bow,
She passed forth, with the light
Of heaven upon het brow.
oMother, ITve seen the Lord"
His hand in mie I felt,
And, oh, { beard him say,
Ax onany chair I knelt,
~Fear not, my child. whatever ills may
; come.

LET US HAVE WATER.
The Engine a Success, But The Water
Supply Insufficent.
Editor Reflector.
Now that the Town has a fire
engiuve, and the tirst step is taken
towards the care and safety of the
town from fire, the second and
most important step should at
once be taken by making the
water supply sufficient to meet
the most stuoborn emergency.
This ia my opinion should be done
in the best way. andthat way is
to make a large reservoir at the
west side of the walk bridge
going to Forbestown, and one
at the bridge going to Skinner-
yihe on 4th street, and one in the
ravine at the east end of ~4th
- treet, below Dr. Wm. B. Brown's.
These iocations are ost
within reach of the length of
hose, and for the protection af the
north part of the town the river
will furnish and inexhaustible
quantity, and for the protection
ofthe Tobaceo Warehvuuses and
other property in that section of
the town a reservoir could be
made buck
near the street going by the
warehouses. This is the most
iuexpensive way to get plenty of
water and without water the town
has no use for an engine. When
this is done and the property
owners and citizen generally have
solemnly and earnestly made up
their minds to work harmoniously
aba in full concert of action, be"
ing willing to be commanded
when a fire 18 on us and will work
for the best good of the town, the
fire bugs will not be able to do
~much tuward destroying the town
aud property thecein. The fact is
very clearly evident that the cost
of an engine is a useless waste of
money if there is uo water, and in
order that this end shall be met
the above proposition is in my
judgment the best and most eco-
vomical expenditure that can
posibly be made to get all the

We have been making some

Thanks to Mr. Grimes for his

Jn our conception there is noth-

more advanced unification of
thought than ao organization of

The one great rule of business
is that of honesty, absolute and
anqualified honesty, writes Kd-
ward W. Bok inthe May ZadvesT
Home Journal. All the rules of
business are worthless if ~they are
not founded on that one and only
foundatioa stone to true commer
cial success. Honesty is not
slone the best policy in business ;
it is the one and only policy.
Upon it, and upon it alone can a
@ good reputation be buiit, and a
man in business without a repu-
tation for honesty might just as
as well stop. Any deviation from
the rule of honesty in business
may bring temporary gain, but it
invariably means permanent loss.
Oa the other hand, a strict ad-
herence to an honest policy may
mean @ temporary loss, but it is
sure to result in a permanent
gain.

CASHIERS GONE WRONG.
Raleg, Wilmivgton aod Charlotte,
~. These Three, but the Greatest of -
These is Charlotte"Foust, of
Salisbury, and Jones, of
Roxboro"Only One
Escaped. "
North Carolina is getting up a
reputation on its bank cashiers.
Crosa and White, the Raleigh
bankers, whose drunken flight
towards Canada, and the fright
ofthe negro porter whom they
carried with them, vested their
escapade, serious as it was, with
a tingle of humor, stand at the
head of the list. At the head, in
so far that they opened the-~ ball
in this State. They daly served
time in the chain gang. Their
flight, arrest, trial and conyiction
created a great sensation in the
State. They donned striped suits
and were soon forgotten.
Then came the smash of the
First National bank of Wilming-
ton and the flight of Cashier Bow-
don. He didnTt wait for the storm
to break, but pat out before the
people fully realized what was
the matter. It is seid that the
money he handles now is worth
only 56 cents on dollar, for he is
living in Mexico. |
The next thing to shaka up the
State was the failure of the Bank
of New Hanover and its branch
banks, but the officers of this in.
stitation made the best of a bad
situation. The State had $15,000
on Geposit in this bank at the time
�,� the smash, put there by Col.
[ate, then State treasurer. Ac.
tion is now pending against the
directors of the bank to hold them
todividually responsible for the
loss of the money. The com-
plaint charges that the directors ,
through carelessness and indis
cretion brought on the failure of
the bank and are therefore re
sponsible, and that they had _ se
cured the deposit by misrepresenu-
tation. Treasurer Worth, suc-
eeedinz Col. Tate. is now the
plaintiff in the action.
Closely following this came the
defaication of Cashier Foust, of
Salisbury. He embezzled $20,-
000 of the bankTs funds. Rev. J.
F. Murdock uncovered him one
morning - quite unexpectedly.
When Foust saw that Mr. Mur
dock meant business, he made a
vrab at a package of bilis amount.
ing to $1,000 and tried to bolt
Si but he was detained in the bank
came- He is still serving his
term in the State penitentiary, in
the capacity of bookkeeper of the
penitentiary farm near Weldon.
Since the arrest of Foust noth-
ing out of the way in banking
circles had occurred in the State
until the Holland exposure, and
tharlotte added to the list the
king of all cashiers. And now
cemes Roxboro, with its little
$18,000 capital stock bank, and its
enterprising cashier in jail. His
name is Jones and they say he
got away with $5,000. oIt is be-
lieved,� say the published reports
~that the depositors are not ~in
~anger, but the stockholders will
lose heavily.�"-Ch arlotte ews.

THE FIRE ENGINE.
It is Given a Water Test and Pruves
a Success.
en
The new fire engine which the
Boara of Councilinen coutracted
for and were to accept in case it
came up to what was guaranteed
for it, was brought down from the
depot Thursday evening and giv-
ena thorouzh water test. The
first test was urade iu froaut of the
Market House, the suction hose
being lowered into the well there
~a stream of water was thrown
y the Court House steeple,
then placed at the well near Pen
derTs store and the hose was run
out to ©. T. MunfordTs resideuce
two blocks away, but the well
did not afford sufficient water to
inske this test. Then the fire
company took the ergiue to the
river bridge, placed it near the|-
draw, lowered the suction to the
river, rion the hose up the hill
and on nearly to second street,
and from the street threw a
stream of water over the Masonic
Lodge. This was as severe a
test as the engine could well be
subjected to, and it did ~all that
could be expected of 1t. We be
lieve the engine is a thoroughly
good one and if an adequate
water supply is now
town will be well
against fire.
The engine will be put to a fire
bine feet high. The engine was
protected
near the Coliege For this pur-
pose a rough structure 15 x 20
feet and 15 feet high has been pur
up. This house will be filied
with combustible material, the
whole saturated with oil and fire
set to it. Ifthe engine puts this
out there will be no room to
doubt that it will do everything
gaaranteed for it.
