FKI DAY', DECEMBER 31, 1897.
Christmas in Pinehurst, thanks to our
northern visitors, was celebrated Christ
mas eve with an entertainment and Christ
mas tree in the new Village Hall. In the
afternoon on Christmas day the colored
people in and about the outskirts of the
village were entertained in the hall with
a Christmas tree and interesting exer
cises. The children of the Pine Kidge
Sunday and day school, about three
miles from town, were also remem
bered and a Christmas tree, presents, and
entertainment interested the children,
and will no doubt be remembered by
them for many a year to come. All in
all, Pinehurst is satisfied with her ob
servance of Christmas.
Political parties in North Carolina
appear to be considerably mixed at the
present time. Humors are afloat charg
ing that trades are being made for pres
ent and future political effect, that cer
tain men are to be appointed to office to
carry out bargains made by political
leaders, and one would suppose that all
political action by the voters of the state
should be taken for the benefit of a few
individuals who are said to control
things. The idea that all the people have
rights which should be respected, and
that the good of the state is above and
beyond everything else hardly enters in
to the calculations of the would-be
traders.
Tiik union religious services last Sab
bath were held in the the new Village
Hall for the first time. The sermon by
Pev. W. N. Clarke, D. l., of Colgate
university, Hamilton, X. V., and the ad
dress of (Jen. Carrington on "The World's
First Christinas" were listened to by a
large audience, and we judge must have
been greatly appreciated by those present
from the favorable comments we have
heard since the meeting.
Tiik Pixkiiukst Outlook, an eight
page weekly, comes to our desk from its
office of publication at Pinehurst, N. C.
F. T. Spinney is the publisher and
Arthur H. Spinney editor. Tiik Out
look is both editorially and typograph
ically all right. It is enthusiastically
devoted to the interests of the section
where it is published, which is, undoubt
edly, one of the most salubrious and
healthful in the United States, especial
ly in the winter season, and invalids in
the north seeking a desirable locality in
which to hibernate, will find much to
interest them in the columns of Tiik
Outlook. The Mansfield (Mass.; Xeics.
Ir. Edward Everett Hale.
Dr. Edward Everett Hale was the
guest of honor at the dinner given by the
Aldine club of New York on Tuesday of
last week. Speeches were made in honor
of their guest by Bishop Potter, Mr.
Ho wells, Mr. Ford, Col. Waring, and
others, causing their guest to break one
of his rules, which makes it a duty to
"sleep enough," by prolonging the fes
tivities to a late hour. From the serene
heights of his more than three-quarters
of a century, Dr. Hale was able to accept
their praise as pleasant, indeed an evi
dence of hospitality and good-fellowship
but now important neither for his fame
nor for his pleasure. Approaching old
age has many compensations for one
who is able to forget himself, his repu
tation, and his position, and to work
daily merely for the love of work and
for the good it does. In no way has Dr.
Hale shown his quality more conspicu
ously than in the example he has set to
all men of absolute unselfishness and un
stinted generosity in his expenditure of
talent, time, and money, not merely for
the public good, but also for innumer
able private individuals. Exchange.
New York's Decreasing Death-Kate.
The supreme test of a nineteenth-century
city as a desirable civic home is the
safety and protection which it guarantees
to human life ; in other words, the death
rate is the civic barometer, and as it rises
or falls human beings live or die. A low
death-rate is usually coincident with a
high tax-rate, because an administration
which dares to provide the most im
proved methods in its . various depart
ments must pay for them, and in matters
touching human life the best is never too
high-priced. No one department can
ever bring about a low death-rate, but it
will always depend on the intelligent
and harmonious working of all the
branches of the city's service.
For New York City the death-rate in
1891 was 20.31; 1802, 25.95; 1893, 25.30;

The Bishop's Discomfiture. A London
bishop determined to preach to a coun
try congregation the simplest sermon he
could write. He took as his text, "The
fool hath said in his heart, 'There is no
God'." On leaving the church, he asked
the parish clerk what he thought of the
sermon. "Oh, my lord," said he, "it
was very tine, very fine and grand.
I've been talking it over with Mr. Heard,
and we said how fine it was. But, after
all, we can't help thinking that there is a
God." Chamber's Journal.
