So far the team inder his guidance and leadership ca las not lost a game, and only Sat- ag irday last downed the VanderbWt fe :eam by a score of 10 to 9. The ?P ionsensus of opinion Is that North 44 Carolina has the best football eleven ai this season In Its history.

Another success of a distinctly rorth while" oedsf, hu been" sent i tour with the prestige of nearly year's run at the Gaiety Theater, IW York city, ae^a recommends yn. "Stop Thief Is a farce of ughs, thrills and surprises. To llow Its plot won't, perhaps tax ur patience, but the dialogue, sjtlions and climaxes will keep you great good* humor for two and a ,1f hours and send you home with e satisfactory feeling that your ne has been well repaid.

Prior to his going to Richmond to accept the rectorship of Saint -^9 James' church he was rector of the leading church in Newport News. Va., where he did a wonderful work and was not only one of the "Bhlp- V JS building City's" most popular preachers but as a citizen stood among the very first. Strong Inducements will be ^ brought to bear upon Bishop-elect Darst to be consecrated in Saint Peter's church, this cltly. Already :he rector and vestry has extended '.o him an invitation to this effect ind it la to be hoped that he will iccept inasmuch as his election -oc:urred in Washington. His consecra:lon will doubtless take place someIme during the month of December. Several bishops will be In attendance >esldes a large number of the clergy >f the Dloceae of Bast Carolina. There 1b a peculiar coincidence coalected with the election of Blahop )arst, especially so far as Saint 5eter's church here Is concerned. When Bishop Thomas Atkinson raa named as Bishop of North CaroIna he was rector of Grace Episcopal hurch, Baltimore. The late Mr. ames E. Hoyt, then Junior warden f Saint Peter's church here, was a aember of the committee which rent to the city of Baltimore to lottfy Bishop Atkinson of his eleclon.

He rings to his high office a vigorous nanhood, a fine brain, an attractive ersonallty and a life circumspect ind above reproach. His election vas a wise one and his Intention ta iccept means much rejoicing not >nly among the members of his faith >ut others as well.
