LE SOCIETY
Great Mass Meeting Last Night at
First Pres. Churoh. Mecklen
burg Society Organized with
Mr. C. W. iilitt, President.
" Good Collection Taken. '
Interest in the work of the great
American Bible Society was revived in
this city last night, when a union
meeting of most of the city churches
was held in the auditorium of the First
Presbyterian church, which was crowd
ed to its utmost with the Sunday
school room also well filled.
The exercises began at eight o'clock,
Mr. C. W. Tillett, a leading member of
the Charlotte bar and a noted church
worker presiding.
The most distinguished outside guest
at the gathering was Dr. Thos. H. Law,
field agent of the society for the States
of North and Stsuth Carolina, Georgia,
Florida and Alabama.
The first speaker was Dr. Howerton,
who was announced by Mr. Tillett who
made an appropriate talk about the
work of the society. Mr. Tillett also
made the ' remark that while people
cften appear to take more interest in
their politics, that really religion was
the most important matter with us,
although Ave don't say much about it
sometimes. . -.
Dr. Howertons address was of a
somewhat startling nature as he paid
special attention to the depleted con
dition of the treasury of the American
Bible Society and said if aid were not
forthcoming soon the society would
have to stop work, "but," added Dr.
Howerton, "the help is coming for the
friends of the -society, will come to its
relief when they find just what condi
tion it is now in. The speaker also
called attention to the fact that it had
been more than a score of years since
there was an anniversary like the one
that ,was held last, night and that for
that reason the younger generation-
was not informed on the work of the
society and hence another reason wliy
the work was not heartily supported
here. The work of the society accord
ing to the speaker, was contemporane
ous with the foreign missionary move
ment, and. the scattering of the word of
God, -has always kept pace with the
enlargement of the field cf the mis
sionary. Dr. Holland, pastor of St. Mark's
Lutheran church was the next speaker,
and in a brief' address he told inter
estingly of the work of the society. He
displayed a little book sent out by the
society, in which was the well knqwn
quotation "For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son,
etc.,, and told the audience that this
was translated into about 200 lan
guages, and that the society has pre
pared, the worft of God in this number
of tongues, and perhaps more, to be
scattered to the four quarters of the
earth. ' . -A -' - '
Dr. Holland in closing introduced Dr.
Law, field agent of the American Bible
Society, who made the chief address
of the evening and Who, -was most at
tentively heard.
Dr. Law said in part: V
"I believe that the spirit is calling us
today just as really as it did in the
olden "times when ? Paul saw the vis-'
ion cf the Macedonian, man . crying-,
come "over and help us. The miraculous
iua yhave passed away but the spirit
is: still calling, and : just at this , time
When the society's needs are so great
and when it has many urgent demands
in foreign countries for the word of
God, that cannot be filled, it is sure
and certain to me that God is calling
us to answer this cry.
"You have no idea of the demands
that are made upon us. Only a little
while ago there was an order from
Syria for Bibles for that country,
where our agents had been and pre
pared the whole field, and on account
of lack of money the society could not
fill the demand. And it is the same
with , other parts of the earth right
now, and unless there is help 'from
the outside the society cannot last.
The American Bible Society sells
copies of the Bible for about 15 cents,
a testament for 5 cents, and a gospel
for 2 cents. These are net given away
but sold by the society, at the cost of
making.;
Dr. JLiaw read some figures showing
Charlotte's contributions for the last
year to the society, which in all
amounted to less than forty dollars.
"The Presbyteroans, with their four
churches, have given about $3.50 and
the Methodists, with their six church
es, have given about the same, and the
whole Southern church of both
branches has given very small last
year.
These figures, as read by Dr. Law,
occasioned the remark that, if Dr. Law
has consulted the ministers and others
first, they would have urged , that he
leave the figures out, but the presen
tation of them wrought a good effect
and on motion of Dr. Howerton, the
Mecklenburg Branch of the American
Bible 'Society was organized with Mr.
C. W. Tillett, president; Rev. P. H.
Gwynn, vice president, and Prof. Geo.
B. Hanna, secretary and treasurer.
It was moved by Rev. W. W. Orr that
a collection of $500 be taken then and
there for the cause, and the collection,
which amounted to a handsome sum,
was taken before the dismissal of the
congregation with the benediction. . .
Three little rules we should keep,
To make life happy and bright,
Smile in the morning, smile at noon,

WRESTLING MATCH.
In Lively Bout Young Herbert Won in
Two straignt i-aiis.
The Raleigh, News and Observer
contains a lengthy account of a wrest
ling match in that city Saturday night
in which Geo. Herbert and Walter El
liott, the latter of New York, were the
principals. Young Herbert's home is
at Richmond, Va., though he lived here
nearly a year, being connected with
the Brannon Drug Company.
The match was catch-as-catch-can
and was won by Herbert in two
straight falls, the first in twelve min
utes after going on the mat and the
second in seventeen.
The first fall resulted from a half
Nelscn and scissors on the arm and
the other resulted from the same
hold.
Herbert was plainly much the
stronger boy of the two and Elliott
was forced to be almost constantly on
the defensive. The match, however,
was hotly fought and the audience had
frequent occasion to applaud both
contestants.- The work -was hard, .and
sometimes fierce, but never brutal, and
the best of good humor prevailed.
The referee was Mr. Frank Simpson,
of Raleigh, and the time-keeper Mr.
Fred Herbert, father of one of the con
testants. HEBREW WEDDING.
An Interesting Ceremony Performed
in Charlotte Yesterday.
The marriage of Miss Esther Mamie
Paul, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan
Paul, of this city, and Mr. Jaochom
Lamb, of Atlanta, Ga., took place yes
terday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the
home of the bride's parents on West
Fifth street. This interesting ceremo
ny was performed by Rabbi Jacob
Kleine, of Sumpter, S. C, and it was
witnessed by a large circle of friends.
At the appointed hour Mr. Michael
Kirschbaum . conducted the groom
elect into the parlor where awaited the
Rabbi and the bride, wearing white
with a veil, proceeded to the altar on
the arm of her father. ,
After the ceremony the young cou
ple were tendered a reception at which
a large unmber of Isrealites and Gen
tiles were present.
RAIN EXPECTED TONIGHT.
Mr. Bennett Says We Are To Have
Failing Weather.
The weather man says we may ex
pect rain in this vicinity tonight and
Tuesday. In his remarks today Mr.
Bennett says:
The low pressure area central Sun
day morning over the Lake region,
has drifted eastward over New Eng
land, having caused snow over the
Lake region and rain over New Eng
land and the middle Atlantic coast. An
other low pressure area is central this
morning over Arkasas, and has caus
ed rain over the middle Mississippi
valley. With its probable eastward
movement, cloudy weather with oc
casional rain may be expected in this
vicinity tonight and Tuesday.

Heard and Seen
Here and There
Out in beautiful Elmwood one catch
es the first real breath of spring. The
sunshine lies warm upon the dry leaves
and the first perfume of . vernal bloom
is caught as it is wafted on the breezes.
It is faint and delicate, but unmistak
able it is a token of bloom some
where. ' v -
One throws up his head and sniffs it
and searches for' it,: as he would bend
his ear for some faint far-off strain cf
music.
Is it a breath of the opening buds or
has the south wind brought it from
warmer climes?
No! It is the violet. One goes here
and there through the beautiful city
of the dead and he sees these little,
modest, unassuming flowers, fairly pur
pling certain places. Here they form
the only flower decorations of an entire
square. Yonder they nestle lovingly
over the mound that contains the re
mains of somebody's little darling.
Everywhere, the sweet, tender, little
purple flower sheds its fragrance on
the early spring air.
What a volumn of violet literature
there is! More violet poems than any
other flower kind. And yet, somehow,
those who love the little flower, feel
that there remains something unsaid
that should be said. Something, if pos
sible, to commend more forcibly the
sweetness of the dear, little blossom.
Perhaps the name violet in a
measure explains the popularity of the
flower. Perhaps it is the simple beauty
cf the blossom.
Then too, it is the first flower to
brave the chilly atmosphere and peep
its little head out to drink in the first
warm rays of an early spring sun. This
makes its appearance thrice welcome
and draws all lovers of nature and na
ture's sweetness, to it.
The violet the common, but ever
uncommon "blue violet" nature's first
breath of sweetness to a sleeping
world the first gentle reminder that
winter's chilly breezes will soon be
merged into spring's halniy air.
So few people appreciate kindnesses
and there are so many who are seek
ing after such acts. I am reminded of
a case that came before Judge James
L. Webb, during the December court,
for the trial of criminal cases. There
was a young white boy who was charg
ed with carrying a concealed weapon.
He was first given a hearing in the
Recorder's Court and was bound over
under a $25 bond.
Failing to give the required bond, he
went to jail, to await a hearing at the
higher court.
The young man was clearly guilty of
the charge made in the bill of indict
ment and deserved the punishment
usually inflicted in such cases. But,
just as Judge Webb was about to pass
sentence, a letter was handed him. It
was from that boy's mother who now
lives in Savannah. Judge Webb glanced
at the rudety written note and his
tender heart was touched. He read on
and 'ascertained that a' mother's heart
had been broken because her son had
been lying in : 1 Mecklenburg jail,
charged with a crime.
After reading the letter, Judge Webb
looked at the prisoner and said "This
letter I hold in my hand is from your
mother and she is suffering because
of your disgrace. It is a difficult mat
ter for me to turn aside from the plead
ings of a good mother and for this rea
son I am going1 to give you a chance
to correct this fall. Now go out from
here and make a man of yourself.
All the time Judge Webb was talk
ing, tears were streaming down the
cheeks of the prisoner. He promised
the court that h'e would do better
that he would appreciate the kindness
shown him.
Has he done it?
" No. He is an occupant of a cell in
the county jail right now. And the
charge against him is a graver one
than that of carrying a concealed
weapon. He is indicted for selling
liquor.
Judge Webb did right in giving Ed,
Krimminger a chance. The boy has ut
terly failed to appreciate the kind act
of one who wanted to help him, make
a man of him.

Really, the Southern's new passen
ger station is a thing of beauty. It is
such a vast improvement over any
thing in the way of a railroad station
Charlotte has ever had that compari
sons are odious. One has to go through
the building to fully realize the mag
nitude of the work that has been done
by the Southern on West Trade street.
I went through the huilding yesterday
morning and I must confess that if the
Charlotte board of aldermen has the
faintest reason for not accepting the
building, I am unable to see it.
That railing that divides the general
waiting room is just as the City Attor
ney, Mr. Harris, says it is. But, where
do you find any up-to-date station that
is not constructed on this plan? In all
fairness that kick should not have been
registered. Since it has been, the only
thing to do is to withdraw it for really,
there was no harm intended and no
harm has been done.
The building, throughout, has been
constructed with a keen eye to conve
nience and durability. It is a wonder
fully attractive building and one Char
lotte should feel proud of. The front
sheds are a litte low but that is a mis
take, not of the road, but cf the archi
tect who conceived .the plans, and, can
be easily remedied. ;

Will the idle negroes , of Charlotte
continue to sell whiskey contrary to
law?
Will the punishment inflicted on
those convicted at the last term of the
court deter others ;from engaging in
this unlawful practice? . . ,
These are ouestions.the future holds
the answers "to. If those who have a
.weakness for this crime will remember
Tom Quinn and his nine-months sen

in Charlotte for some days to come.
On the other hand, if they conceive
the idea that they will fate like some
of the others Ed- Caton, for instance

THE
IDEAL
Shapes the Destiny of Men The Influence of a
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated.
Seven-eighths of the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes r
because she has the quali
ties which inspire admira
tion, respect and love. . -
Thers is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition ;-because of
them even thrones have
been established and de
stroyed. ,
What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head 1 A sickly, half-dead-and-alive
woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The cost of a wife's con
stant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a
household, and too often all the doc
toring does no good.
If a woman finds her energies are
flagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams ; if she has backache, head
aches, bearing-down pains.
nervous
ness irregularities, or despondencv, she
should take means to build her system
up at once by a tonic, with specific
powers, such as Lydia E. .Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. It is
the safeguard of woman's health.

letter from a youDg wife.
