SKETCH OF AN INTERESTING! AND U8E- FUL LIFE. Xcw York Rrmrder. There is uo ground fur assuming, ax some too hasty Republican writers are doinj, that Judj Gresham has recanted Lis lii'o lon llepublieanUnr in accepting the first scat ia Mr. Cleveland's Cabinet. He has at all points in his career shown himself to b a man of the sturdiest prin ciplea strong, sincere, aud steadfast statesman. That he has essentially changed a' this late point in his career, we do not fur a moment believe. He has not gone over to tho Democratic party; the Demo cratic party has gone over to him. Mr. Cleveland has done a bold, origi nal, and politically audacious thing in invitiug this eminent Republican leader to sit at his right hand in the first and most responsible post in his Administra tion. But there is no reason for brand ing Judge Gresham as a renegade for accepting the high honor and grave re sponsibility thus tendered to him. The whole Republican party is indeed com plimented by Mr. Cleveland's act. Walter Q. Gresham is the high-mind-td Republican statesman to-day that he has always been, and he will carry the convictions of his lifetime into Mr. Cleve land's Cabinet and act upon them on all occasions. His presence there will be a guarantee to the country that no radical disturbance of the Republican policies of the past thirty-two years will be attempt ed during Mr. Cleveland's term.

Dr. Aaron Ilahn in his lecture io Army and Navy Hall Sunday morning on "The Modern Standpoint of Jesus Christ," said : "In those days the Jews wero under dire oppression from the Romans. Many deliverers appeared, and the people hailed with delight the idea of Messiah. The Jewish country was swarming with en thusiasts who were eager to aid the people. Two of these became famous Judah of Galilee and Jesus of Nazareth. Judah urged force; Christ urged humility. He was tried before Pilate and put to death. His death was a misunderstanding be tween himself and the Roman Govern ment. The Jews admit that Christ was crucified, but deoy that he was crucified by tho Jews. Why should the Jews have crucified Jesus ? They hailed him with joy and delight. The country was swarming with proclaimed Messiahs, but none of them were put to death. How did the Jews inflict capital puuishmentr By stoning or beheading or burning. Crucifixion was unknown among the Jews. That was the Roman method. Then it is said that Jesus was sentenced at night. Tho supreme court of the Jews met only in the day. There were two thieves crucified with Jesus. Under Jewish law that could never be. The Jewish law provides that only one man should be executed in a day. Christ was crucified under Roman law." Cleve land Plain Dealer. FAIU PLAY.

TEXT OP THE BILL NOW PENDING TO ntOVIDE SEPARATE ACCOMMODA TIONS I'OR WHITES AND NEGROES. Johu Moncure Robinson was tho ol dest son of the lato Moncure Robinson, for many years President of the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad Co. of Virginia, nd the Reading Railroad Co., of Penn sylvania, and as one of the first civil en gineers of this country was actively en gaged in railroad enterprises until inca pacitated by extreme age. His mother's maiden name was Charlotte Taylor, grand daughter of Edmond Randolph, of Vir- giuia, of Revolutionary fame. Through all his life he looked upon his mother as the ideal woman, and it was his wont to visit her often in Philadelphia, where she now lives at an advanced age to mourn the death of her son, who, as the head of large enterprises, culminating in tho construction of the Georgia, Caiolina and Northern railroad, had rendered him self famous; who under all circumstances was known ever to keep faith with every one with whom he had business relations; his word was his bond. Mr. John M. Robinson commenced his career in the shops of tho Seaboard & Roanoke Railroad Company, at Ports mouth, Va. He then was a conductor, and subsequently became superintendent and then tho president of that road. When tho R. & A. and the R. & G. R. R. Compauies lost their president, Mr. G. W. Griee, he was chosen to succeed him. He also succeeded Mr. M. Falls as presi dent ot the liay 1,1 ne, ana later, was elected to the presidency of the Old Dominion Steamship ' nmpaoy, io the place of Mr. MeCready, a ho died at sea returning from Europe. At tho be ginning of the late war Mr. J. M. Robin sob was on the staff of Gen. Sara Jones, and with Gen. Lorin" in the Kanawha campaign, and was slightly wounded at the battle of Fayette C. H., Va., in 1863, The succeeding year he was commission ed as inspector of Sonthero railroads, and virtually looked after the transportation of the Confederacy. Subsequently he was sent to Europe by the Confederacy to purchase railroad supplies, and ran the blockade out of Wilmington. He re turned to the Confederacy before the sur render and stopped in Norfolk, Va. Af terwards for a short while he was engaged in reorganizing his road and putting it io shape. While there be had a severe attack ot rheumatism, from which he never fully recovered. lie accumulated quite a large estate notwithstanding his family which consists of six cirls and two bovs. The names of the latter are Monoure and Randolph He lived in princely style and entertain- ed most lavishly. In the sixties he mar ried Miss Champ Conway, daughter of Dr. Conway, formerly of Richmond, Va. His parents were born in Virginia, but he was born ia Philadelphia, though ed ucated and brought up in Virginia. lie was about 57 years old. TltAXQUILITY OF HEART. Rest is the deepest want in the soul of All 1 . J ' -I man. All men ao not uesire pleasure all men do not . crave intellectual food but all men long for rest. It is this need which sometimes makes the quiet of the grave an object of such deep desire, There the woary are at rest. And it is this which, consciously or unconsciously is the real wish which lies at the bottom of all others. 0, for tranquility of hum I heaven's profound silence in tho soul I F. W. Robertson. There can be no happiness without health, and no health when you have severe cold without some good cough cure.

SEPARATE CARS. AVIIAT YOUR PAY WILL BE Tho following is the full text of tho I tn require railroads to furnish equal aceuiiiuioualioiis and separate cars or com partments for white and colored passengers. Tho General Assembly of North Car olina dn enact; Section 1. That railroads doing busi ness in this State shall be required to fur nish equal accommodations in separate irs or cuinpaitments of cars for white and colored passengers; provided that this act shall not apply to sleeping cars. Sec. 2. That all conductors or other employes of such railroads in charge of their cars shall be required to assign all passengers to their respective cars or compartments of cars provided by said companies under the provisions of this act. Sec. 3. That any passenger willfully remaining in any car or compartment other than that to which he may have been assigned shall be guilty of a misde meanor and shall be punished by fine or imprisonment or both in the discretion of the court. The conductor and any and all employes on such oars are hereby clothed with power to eject from the train or car any passenger who refuses to remain in such car or compartment as may be assigned to him. Sec. 4. That when a railroad is dl ided into compartments the face set apart or provided for white and colored passengers respectively may be propor tion of usual and ordinary travel by each on the road or line on which said cars are used. Sec. 5. That it shall be unlawful for the officers or employees having charge of such cars to allow white and colored passengers to occupy the same cars or compartments and the violation of this section shall constitute a misdemeanor to be punished as stated in section 3. Sec. G. That the provisions of this act shall not apply to nurses or servants in attendance on their employes. Sec. 7. That tho provisions of this act shall apply to cars but only so far as to require conductors and employees in charge ot the same to assign passengers to seats so as to separate the white and colored as much as practical. Sec S. That all companies operating railroads in this State shall furnish to the passenger comfortable scats and shall have the cars and compartments of cars well and sufficiently lighted and ventilated. Sec. 10. That this act shall be in force from and after the first day of May, 1893, OBSERVATIONS.

We pass our lives in realizing the truth of commonplaces. How dentists and dressmakers escape becoming irreclaimable skeptics as to tb courage of men and the amiability of women, is a mystery indeed. So long as loveis can quarrel, they are still lovers. Perfected humanity will live in a dead calm. All movement arises from i in per fection. Far beyond conquering, women love to be Cruquered.
