There could be no services on Thursday m account of the severe storm pre vailing, with indications that it would continue for some time, so it was deemed best to close the meeting.

The heavy head seas with which we had to con tend were so great that frequent ly they broke over the fo 'castle ,,-,. , , - 0 with tremendous force. Some- times a tremendous sea would break over the fo'castle, bury the forward turrets and then waste its energy bending down iron stanchions of the llying bridge, which is 35 feet above the water line.

Barnes, I5e Lenient With Children "Be just as lenient with the misdemeanors, mistakes and ig- uorance of the child as you are with your own, and judge his conduct from the child's stand- point rather than that of the adult. Don't expect him to in stinctively understand morals without instructions any more t'nau ou would expect him to read without teaching, and don't oe afraid that by becoming his intimate and confidential friene. you will lose any influence ovei him .lust as soon as he Know- .1 that--ou understand his 'world, mat NOu appreciate 'his. feeling, that you sympathize with his de- sire, that you are anxious to aJ ford him all the happiness possi ble he. will become all the mon unendabie to your influence and control It is not necessary lgi advisable always to explain to i ichii'd the reason for every ordei given. But it is certainly no amiss that the child should under stand that every order has a rea on back of it, even though jou do Lot tell him what it is'- llome Government Ownership of Kailroadn, Way nesville Courier. Por severat years we have be- j lieved the Goverainect should own ihe railroads. The loi ger we live tbe firmer grows the cod viction. If the roads were own ed by the Government then pas sengeraud freight rates would be lowred and a prompt ervic would by guaranteed to all with- out aiscrimmaiun 10 any. We recently packed up a frai ment of a newspaper with the fni lowing information on it: "The Government OsV nets rap of Railroads," is the title cf a lit tie tract published by Charles 11 Kerr & Co., 56 Pifth Ave, Chica go, at five cents a copy or 2 .00 a hundred, which furnishes some striking facts in reference to the ., , t : ran roaa s. it say s tnax u rea t Britain and the United States are the only two first class nations that do Dotown and operate soim of their railways, and that Great BrI'ain will nationalize her enure railway system in 1905. Already' fifty-four governments own ana operate 100, 000 miles of tail road Thfl avfi'raire rassener fart in owoed its railways for more than fl( is less tbaa oue aud ' ... , m i nnt fifth npnts npr mi p M.nti v! iue ureruiau tiiupue, vuicii uas ont-fifth cents per mile, and yet the statistics for the year 1890 shows a net profit of 179.159,147 to the Government from operat ing the roads.

In New Zealand, the cost of the rail way travel is about one third of a ceut ner mi!e." Who that is informed of these facts, that can be authenticated, would not favor government own ership? Call it Populist doctrine- if you want to, but it is a good doctrine all the same and it is coming If the railroads continue forming themselves into great grasping corporations and continue their policy of discrimination rates and accommodations it will only bring about the results the quicker.
