It was onr pleasure to see and bear a native Japanese last night in the person of Rev. A S Iahida, who lectured in the Central M E ohurch He has spent six yean in America, has graduated in his oollege coarse and is equipped for preaching to hie native people, whither he Is making his way. His means are inadequate and he is making a lacturing tour and witb voluntary collections he purposes to gather np enough to make his way back to Japan. His tongne refuses yet to adapt itself to the English language and parts of his sentences we could not catch. His experience in trying to master our language was amusing to bear while it showed the distortion of onr words as they are wrested from their true meaning to snbserve some lin guistic fad For instance, he paid his hotel bill at San Francisco and and the clerk said, "this makes us square, come round again." Square means a figure with fonr equal sides and four right angles. Hoir could he and his companion and the hotel clerk form a square, and then how could they come ronnd if tbey were square ? A follow student was prostrated with grief because his sweetheart bad kicked him. A sweetheart he found to be tbe girl a fellow loves, and be withed to see tbe bruise on bis fellow student where she ha deposited her foot on the fellow whose woeings she spurned, bu1 thete was no bruise to be seen and he was informed that tbe heartless cruel girl bad actually "broken'' hie heart. How oould she kick bo higb and hit bis heart so -thumpingly aa to break it and yet not braise his ex ternal parts, 11 is amasement war complete when he found that tbe girl was 175 miles away and had tr kick all that distance to accompli h this wonderful feat. He and his fellow Jap were at first alarmed at the immense number of Americans whom tbey met in tbe last stages of consumption, for they were spitting blcod right and left. B iBg more courageous than his companion be darea to look more closely at tbe ipittle and concluded that Americans ate too much mo lasses ai.d it was that working and tnnning over that m .de them spit, but finally he found it was tobacco. In Aa. erica the wife calls her bus band and tells him to do this and do that. In Japan the wife does not dare to tell her husband to do anything and does not Bit down and eat with her huebind but takes rank witb th cow and tbe dog. The eye brows are shaved off and tbe Zteeth are blacked as murks that a woman is married. There tbe woman bows low and humMy while the man is haughty aud erect in his limited gr e'ing. He e he Gods gentlemen taking off heir hats and bo ving o the ladies who often scarcely make the leas' indication of rquality of ra k. Wh does she i.ot take ol her hat tro and at least bow as low is he ? Then he finds it impossible for her in an or. dinary meeting to remove a whole o of hair pins that keep at poise tie thicg she culli a hat and make a bow, In this time tbe geutlen au wculd be gone. Ihe e things were very funny to he audience but tba lecturer tun ed them to good account. Tbe Ji panese Bible says (lou made the man, the deyil made the wo nun. Of all the world's bappy creatures be thinks the woman in Cbmtiau lands is the mostfiyored and should be the most happy, but he often finds it not the case. In Japanese idol worships be h is different god and a different temple Hiid tbe buul-.'ti .'f her prayer is that r god will let her die aud be bo o a'tm a man. Ao one wants to be a neatnen wo rn ,n.

The C"n verted Jap, be says, stops the use of tobacco at once. It was truly touohing to hear tbe lecturer tell his history. Hij father was a priest of idal worship an himself a bankers clerk at a good salary. The missionary gave him the New Testament, which he read and believed and wished his father to read also. Tbe father burned the book and forbade the son to re main under his roof a Christian The struggle tbat followed while be was gathering light and graoe, through the aid of the missionary was thrilling to hear. Tbe father was austere, while his mother and his sister, who seemed especially dear to him, plead with him to give up Christianity and re main with them, bat that be could not Jo. Since he bas been here he received letters from each announeing the glad tidings tbat all had embraced the Christian relegion, his father having sinoe died in the faith. The lecturer read and sang io na live Japanese that was of course th very things that we wanted to hear, For want of time he could not show us all tbat he might have shown of curiosities. We will note some in their order. With little box of aparatus he showed the rapid and accurate means of addition of numbers. It far sor pissed the ordinary methoJs with as. The Japanese oloak is muoh lik our talma overcoat in style with very arge pockets attaohed underneath the arm coyering. He showed white silk shawl inwrought with colored silk in beautiful design, sent him by his sister, to be sold to help him to get home. Also what seemed to us an article resembling the com mon wash stand splasher, elaborate' inwrought with silk, at which his sister bad wrought with her needi for 42 days. (He thonght th Am. rican girl could not stay off ber wheel to work 42 days solidly with ber needle). The silk stocking is nearly like the late foot warmer without the leather sole and having a socket for the big toe. The Japaneze pillow is a block of wood shaped somewhat like a black smith's anvil bnt is about three inches high and bas a face, on whiob to rest the head, of about one and a half inches. Tbe pipe has a stem nearly lik our common pipe witn a merely turned np enlargement, in which Jap puts a little tobacco and lights t, thin takes a single whiff, empties his pipe and puts it away, having smoked. Tha smoothing iron is muoh lik the plasterers diminitive trowell, having handle like a trowell and of six or more inones long. in smoother is, in snape, like onr smoother, but very small. Tbe shoe is our notion of the sa st ern sandal, it is a sole with instep and big toe straps and held on by pressing downward with tbe big toe. Tbe musical instrument seemea travetty complete a tbing seeming like two mussel shell shaped pieces of wcod put together looking like a babv's rattler, without tbe rattle, witb a hand. hold. In all it is about tbe Biz of your two flits. The masii oian strikes the time on it while be lines and that's all there is in it. 'J' be eloquenoe and pUhos of the speaker were veiy impressive and one could fe-'l that a wide Hold of mef ilness is open to him in bis na tive land where his tongue is adapted by generations of inhetited adup'a tion to the language. He pasted cards around on which those wishing to contribute could write their nanus end tbe amoun s then tbey and all others were asked to give him good-bye hand shakt while they laid down the cards and contributions on the altar table. meanwhile tbat dear old song, "God be with yon till we meet again, was rj'.-ing rendered. The sound of our "z enters large ly ictohis articulations and when he grasped the writers band be aid something like ' Zu a newspaper i From f iree of habit, of not drawing he finest line, on tbe borders ol truthfulness, into which our crafts men are expsctel to fall we bowed cur assent and felt that we give no misleading answer.

Bevertl hundred of our citizens attended tbe ball game at the Forest Hill Park Friday afternoon, between a team from Salisbury and the Con cord boys. The game was altogether one sided, bnt interesting through out. From the beginning Concord'e orack battery, Weddington and Reed, began their excellent work and held the Salisbury boys in check until tbe beginning of the ninth inning, when Weddington had to retiie from the box on account of a bnrt on the wrist. His work wae fine and that of Reed was equally as good. Tbey were supported by an excellent team on tbe in and out field. Salisbury's battery did some hard work, but tbe borne team was too expert at batting. John Brown was the star player on the Salisbury team, and held the others iu good spirits until the last. Robertson, the tall center fielder, made tbe only double play daring the game. The otnoial score by innings is as follows : Salisbury, 00000000 33 Concord, 30346105 W It is the general opinion cf all, tnolnding the Salisbury team itself, that if Weddington had not been compelled to rttire from tbe box, tbe result would have been an entire shut-out. Weddington and hi catohrr, Reed, fully sustained their reputation in Friday's game. The baseball boys say tbey are anxious to play, and will make it interesting for any team tbat will come here, but when tbey do play it is only natural that they want a strong team to work against. Mr. Y C Caldwell smpired the game and his deoisions gave satis faction to both sides. Tbe attendance was large and the interest in the game by tbe citizens was great encouragement to the boys.
