placed in a large vat, subjected to ah
intense steam heat for twelve hours,
and then, while hot, are cut up into
staves. After five or six months ot

there are sixteen staves. The new

directly on the outside of the log, cut
ting off a continuous sheet the proper
length and thickness ot a stave. In
this way the entire log is utilized as
stave material except about six inches
of the core or heart, which is practical

the cutting knife, and revolving upon
the surface of the log, are two cylm

mechanism that feeds the knife to the
log. One revolution of these cylinders

of manufacture the maximum product

A Sketch of Rev. Mr. Pearson.
Rev. R. G. Pearson was born in
Starkville, Miss., and is therefore n
Southern man by birth and also in
principle. He received a full collegiate
education at the Cooper Institute in
Mississippi, and from there he went to
the Cumberland University at -Lebanon,
lenn., where he graduated in thetheo-

returned to Mississippi, and as his first
pastorate, took charge of the Cumber-1
land Presbyterian church at iupelo, in
that State. He retained the pastorate
ot this church tor two years and dur-
ing that tune . erected a handsome
1- 11 111
church edifice and added many to his
confriejration.
tie was then called as pastor to the
, V ... . . . I
Cumberland Presbyterian church at
I I
Columbia, Tenn., and during a period
of two years that he remained there lie
held a number or revivals at which
many were converted.
He was called to the Cumberland
Presbyterian church, of Nashville,
Tenn., as assistant pastor to the Rev.
A. J. Jiaird, with the understanding
that one-half of his time should be de
voted to evangelistic work. After one
year or harmonious and satisfactory

which induced hrm to conduct non-

time he has been engaged in this work
he has labored in the following states:
Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois,
Missouri, Colorado, Texas Mississippi
and Alabama, and in the cities of Nash
ville, Evansville, St. Louis, Dallas,
Memphis and Vicksburg
In 1878 Mr. rearson. married Miss

iner that has gained her
the love and admiration ot all who
know her.
Mr. Pearson has engagements in
this State for the whole of the ensuing
winter and spring and is being petition
ed to make engagements ior next tall
and winter.
His manner of preaching is entirely
tree from all the claptrap and trickerj
treouently resorted to by evangelists
He preaches the gospel in a plain but
r . . i
forcible and eloquent style, as all who
I nave attended his meetings in tnis city
I can testify, and he seems to imbue nisi
hearers with a portion ot ins own great
earnestness in the work he is doing.
Two years since he was offered the
pastorate of Cumberland Presbyterian
church of Louisville, Ky., but being
dienlv impressed with the conviction
tli j it he was called of God to do the
work of an evangelist, he declined the
- t
offer.
While he is a Cumberland Presbyte-
rian himself, and believes in maintain-
ing church organization, he feels that
. . ..... ' .i 1 1
his work is that of a "general evangel
ist." and he wishes those whom may be

"Do not grieve so hoiielessly," I

The Mendlessohn Quintette Club.
Joseph Haydn, the immortal corn-
poser of "The Creation V' oratorio,
wrote: "It is the air which is the
charm of music, and it is that which is
most difficult to produce. The
1 nven-
tion
of
a hue melody is a work of
genius. lSow, although this is sub
stantially a rebuke to the pompons
utterances of those who aim at aston
ishing the head rather than at soften
ing and pleasing the heart, still, the
error of those of insufficient musical
education, consists in the supposition
that there is no genial creation in music
but the melody. It requires 00 less
genins in the invention of ihe fine,
congruous harmony which embellishes
and supports the melody, and in the
choice of rich modulations with which
to surround it, without taking away
one atom of its unity or strength in
the manner of its instrumentation, in
the combination of the various sonori
ties and tone colorings : in fact, there
is but one creation, which is the simul
taneous totality of the distinct parts
working as a perfect whole. Tnere
fore, the creation of the musical idea
so simple in the origin of the art be
comes more and more complicated in
consequence of the great variety of
elements by which the art has become
enriched. Hence, the Grand Orchestra
is the highest manifestation of music's
ensemble idelity, and is the standard by
which all the salient points in music
arejudged and referred to.
The Mendelssohn Quintette Club is
a complete epitome of the grand C ;hr
tra, and is, beyond question, the best
orchestral quintette extant. A rare
opportunity of hearing this famous
body, in a concert here,, Jan. 4, 1888,
is offered, and which no one, of any
rennement, can anoru to ignore es -pecially
in view of the fact, that pur

Hationai Disgrace.
New York is disgraced by the Grant
mausoleum in Riverside Park. The

I first sight one gets of it is shocking
1 " . i? j i ix fi
I it is so small and plain'. It is a
fairly good copy of an old-time Dutch
hakt-oven done in variegated bricks.
The temporary resting place of Gar
field's remains in Cleveland is far hand
somer, Not an hour of daylight pass-
Si that from one to twenty visitors do
not visit the Grant tomb, and on bun
days thousands go there. The im
provements of the park around the
tomb has made the lattter look shab
bier thim it used to. A few trees,
particularly if they were placed so as to
hide the site of it from a distance,
would save the city from its present
humiliation in some degree. .
