There will be music for dancing, a base ball gaue, excursions on the lake, fibbing, bathing and concerts by the club. Prices for tne excursion will be 50 cents for adults and 25 cents for children un der 12 years of age. About Thornioiiietnrs. There are thermometers and ther mometers. S'me are good, some bad and some indifferent. But few record the samidHgruH ot temperature They have been frequently consulted totdav and according to the record displayed have been thu feeling of those who consulted them. The heat has been the absorbing topic of conversation and yet it has not boen so very ht after all Those who have been able to keep out ol the sun and iiavu n-t been compelled to stir around very actively bave tuM, found the temperature so absolutely insufferable. The question is. however, what his the tetiiiralurB been to day? Atone place on North Front street 95 degrees was recorded at 12 o'clock, whiloon Market street in one place it was 90 and at another, an the same side ot the street, and not a dozen doors distant, ft recorded 92. At this ofliee it stood at 91 a( 3 o'clock and we think that this is a fair indication. There is one thing about taking the temperature) which not many seen to understand. Don't put your thermom eter in the door or the window where tbe wind, fresh from the hot streets and hot buildings, will ' piay upon it but somewhere out of the wind and out of the glare of the nun. This is the only way to get at tbe temperature correctly. At Koauoke College. The addrt ss before the Literary So cieties of Roanoke College, at Salem, Va.. wasdelivred onTuesday night the 14th inst , by Hon. A. M. Waddell, of this city. II is subject was The World we Live in," and the substance of hi remarks, as given in the Salem (Va.) limes-Iierisler. of the 17ih, were as fol lows: The address began with a reference to the repeated invitations the speaker had received to come to Roanoke College, which be bad heretofore been unable to accept; and. after some pleasantries which put the audience into a good hn mor. he said he proposed lo review some of the phenomena of the universe as interpreted by modern science. Ex cept in science, he said, nothing new was ever paid or done. He gave some amusing illustrations af unconscious plagiarism, and then proceeded to show some of the absurd results of tbe doc trine ot evolution when pressed too tar. But for the grand and ennobling tri umphs of science we cannot be other wise than grateful. Almost everything of practical use to man had been piven to him by science. Hs then proceeded with his theme. Tbe rriicrocosmoi wa first discussed: The revelations of modern chemistry and tbe most recent uses to which steam and electricity have been applied, ihe history of the spectroscope, aad the final discovery, ry ratans of that wonderful instrument, of tbe- Bessemer process of converting iron into steel, and other similar achievements of science in (his age. were dwelt op n. Then the wonders of the sea and its place in the economy of nature were aken up. prefaced by a tribute to Pi of. Maurv a theone man whose name is forever linkeJ with the science of the great deep. This subject was treated at come length. Then the speaker passed to a discus sion of tbe microcosrnos in the light of modern astronomical science and por trayed the wonders of lhe heavens the raeasurele39 maxiniludes of distance, tbe immensities of pace, aud the beau tiful harmonies of God's creation ; and after the audience had been led to consider these uiindnrxpanding subjects for some time he closed bis addre with D-Quincey's translation ol that sublime conception ot Jean Paul Rich ter. (wherein God calls up from dream a man into the vestibule of heaven and shows him the glory of his house) which is unsurpassed tor its sublimity in the literature of any language. The address embodied the best results ot modern sciene. and was well received by the audience. Our Advice to You In buying clothing for men. boys or children, do not allow your.elf In be guided by glaring advertisements which promises to sell clothing lower than the Old Reliable.
