Massachusetts, combined his duties as a minister 01 religion witn the business of trading so successfully that he was spoken of in the colony as the lather 01 our commerce ana the founder of our trade." He was also a man of so much humor that after his death a collection of his witty or humorous sayings was pup lishedin book form. It is interest ing to recall that the Rev. Mr Pet ers was executed as a regicide. , He was not directly implicated in the death of Charles I, but was accused of encouraging the soldiers to cry out for the blood of the king, whom be had likened to Barabbas. Mr. Peters bad preached one morn ing for two hours. The Bands in the hour-glass had run out. He observ ed it, and turning it over, said to his hearers, Come, let us have another glass!" Preaching on devils entering into swine, he said that the miracle illus trated three English proverbs: One. That the devil will rather play at small game that sit out. Two. That those must needs go forward whom the devil drives. Three. That at last he brought his hogs to a fair market. It was a favorite saying of Fetors tha tin Christendom that there were neither scholars enough, gentlemen enough, nor Jews enough; for said he if there were more scholars there would not be so many pluralists in the church; if there were more gen try, so many born would not be reck oned among them; if there were more Jews, so many Christians would not practice usury. Once he preached, "Beware, young men of the three W s wine, women and tobacco. Now tobacco, you will say. does not besrin with a W. But what is tobacco but a weed?" Discoursing one day on the ad vantages Christians had in having the gospel preached to them "Verily," said he, "the Word hath a free passage amongst you, for it eoes in at one ear and out at the other." Again, from the pulpit: ""England will never prosper till one hundred and fifty are taken away." the ex planation is LLL Lords, Lawyers and Levites. Preaching on the subect of duties, Peters said, "Observe the three fools in the gospel, who, being bid to the wedding supper, every one had his excuse: One. lis tLL Lad "!.i.ed a farm and must go and see it. Had he not been a fool, he would have seen it before hiring it. "Two. He that had bought a yoke of oxen and must go try them. He also was a fool, because he did not trv them before he bought them. 'Three. He that married a wife. and without complement said he could not come. He. too. was a fool, for he showed that one woman drew him away more than a whole yoke of oxen did the former. One rainy day Oliver Cromwell of fered Peters his greatcoat. "No. thank you," replied his chap lain. "I would not be m your coat for a thousand pounds." NEGRO FIR1MEN ON SOUTHERN RJt ROADS. - Baltimore Pan. While sympathizing with the de mands of the white firemen employ ed by the Georgia Railroad for -redress for just grievances; public opinion in the South has not approv ed the agitation in certain quarters for the dismissal from that railroad's service of all negroes employed as firemen. While the board of arbitra tion was not called upon to meet that issue directly, the effect of its deci sion, however, will probably be the retention in the railroad company's employment of all negro firemen who have the intelligence and effici ency requisite to the aatistaornry performance of their duties. The arbitrators were- alt repre sentative Southern men. Two of the three members of the board voted against arbitrary discrimina tion against negro firemen. They were Hon. Hilary A. Herbert, of Alabama, and Dr. Barrow, the chan cellor of the University of Georgia. Under the award of the majority cf the arbitrators, the negro firemen will receive the same pay as tbe white firemen. Up to to the present time their wages have been less. Be ing placed on an equality as to pay. they will be required to maintain as high a standard of efficiency and in dustry as the white firemen. In brief, they will be compelled to stana on their own merits. It is significant that the most in fluential newspapers in the South and conservative -public opinion in the South, while insisting that justice should be done the white firemen, were also outspoken in condemnation of any unjust discrimination against the negro. And one of the strongest arguments which they presented was that it would be harmful to the South to curtail the negro's oppor tunities for employment along lines of work in which he has been em ployed for many years, thus adding to the number of idle and shiftless black men and -increasing the dim culties of a wise "and safe solution of the race problem in the bouth. The Windsor Hotel, Philadelphia. No clearer demonstration of the virtue of fair dealing and enterpri could be Dresenteithan that afforded hv the success which has come to the Windsor Hotel. Thirteenth and Fil bert streets Philadelphia, under the management of Waldo I. Brubaker Mr. Brubaker assumed the man agement of the Windsor in 1907, and ovprv vear since that date has seen the hostelry add to its tacmties ana advance in public esteem. The Windsor is advertised as oemg "midway between the two great railroad terminals," and this in itself i3 one reason why this comfortable and inviting house claims such a gen erous patronage among the commer cial men of the country. .Being near to the business whirl, the centre of the city vortex, the Windsor is yet in a quiet, clear neighborhood, while traffic roars and rumbles on an smes not a snuare awav. Success in a large measure nas . nr- l l 4. 1 rnme to tne wmasor uiruujtii me personality of Mr. Brubaker.

Mr. Brubaker has surrounded him splf with thorough and efficient staff from the front to the kitchin. The WORK OF A NODIE WOUIN. Work of Uss Truces L If ford at White tUQ u This County. Albemarle Cor. Cbarkxx Hbacr-ver. Wednesday was the 30th anniver sary of the beginning of Miss Frances E. Ufford' noble work in the South. commencing at White Hall, where now is located the Jackson Training School for boys, near Concord. This noble Christian woman, with an unwavering faith and steadfast purpose, has during these years raised over (20,000 in giving school advantages to over 500 boys and tfrls. One of these boys is now a leading lawyer of tbe State, having been a prominent member of the Legibla ture some years ago. Miss Ullord is a sister of Rev. E. S. Ufford, author of the famous Gospel hymn, "Throw Out the Life-Line." This noble wo man has been doing this for many years, in the prisons 01 new xora. at White Hall, Cabarrus county ; Asheville, Locust and Albemarle, in Stanly county. She has been and is still a great W. C. T. U. worker and has been instrumental in breaking up distilleries, saloons and reforming drunkards. Many are the homes that have been blessed by a cheerful visit from this godly" woman, who by song, prayer and reading of the Scriptures have caught new visons of a higher life. Miss Uncrd a girls are known wherever they go. They are making Christian homes. trained nurses, school tegahers and mission workers; only eternity will unfold the work of this untiring Christian worker. Her faithful companion. Miss Helen J. Northrop, has been associated with her for twelve years this coming August. Often has Miss Northrop had to lie on her couch and have her classes sit around her: but she has never given up. It only costs a girl $2 a week, or 9 cents a meal, to attend the college founded by these noble wo men. For $2 a week a girl can get three meals a day, room, fuel, light and class-room instruction. I here are only eleven vacancies for next year, and over sixty girls are clamoring for these places. Mis3 Northrop leaves in a few weeks for a years rest atuoldsboro. Miss b'tiord is enjoying good health and will assist in the domestic department, also as one of the instructors of Bible in the Albemarle Normal and Collegiate In stitute, which opens September 14.

"At the recent meeting of the Vrrm Association licv. Hato Durham, pas tor of one of the Method;t churchr in Concord, was cailed upon to ai- dresa the editors, and this he did in an excellent manner. In the eouwe of hit remark he refcrraflo the great facility with which people criticise, applying the observation to bis own habit of regarding newspa pers at a former period of his life. Later. Mr. Durham said, he had him self entered Into the editorial unc tion and found out from actual ex perience jutt what a newt pa per man U called upon to confront. And so it is with- us all. In the language of the street we axe "not on to the job" in most eases, except in our own very narrow sphere of action. If we were "onto the other fellow's job" in most cases we would not be so free with our criticism, and the mantle of Charity would en veloD us more completely. Newspa pers are the special obiect of popular criticism, for everybody knows how to run a newspaper and will make a bnllianta success of it until he tries it. But when one gets onto the job,', opinions will change frequent ly with great rapidity. This same principle applies with no less certainty to tne career oi men in public life. The recent storfn of criticism of our congressmen at Washington for their position taken regarding a Republican tariff is a case in point. The criticism, we be lieve, was unnecessarily severe in certain quarters ; and in most cases criticism would have been withheld no doubt, had the critics been "onto the job" of the honest, faithful and capable men whom they essayed to criticise. Unless we are "onto the job wild criticism not only stultifies us, but is crossly unjust to men who are try ing to do the best they can for the interests of all concerned. We should allow public men a consider able degree of latitude in dealing with governmental questions at Washington. We shouid elect hon est, capable and intelligent men men imbued with a burning desire to provide the greatest good to the greatest number, men who have been tried and not found wanting ; and when this has been done we should be slow to condemn. And in any event we should not condemn, in the case of which we are now speaking. except under the compulsion of very much better evidence of their faith lessness than has yet been produced. How a Snake Cats Eggs. Statesvllle Mascot. We have often heard of snakes eat ine eees hen eirga but we never knew until Saturday when we learn ed the secret from an eye witness. It was in Rowan county where the black snake swallowed four hen eggs. He found the nest under an apple tree, and although the eggs were larger around than the snake's head, his neck or even his body. M had no trouble in getting them push ed down the narrow passage. You could see them go without any trouble and when the four eggs were in the snake you could see the four knots on the snake. But how did he digest them? Well that was an easy question for Mr. Blasksnake. He crawled ud the body of the tree. wrapped himself around it and tight ened himself until pop, pop, pop, pop and all the eggs were broken. tle Scrl tn Nw York bv a Chin. man she was trying to convert, one tempted to a&k whether tn btu r.ew cf nv0nt snvorg theChieca U worth fe. tino the hfetory of the movement shows that the China man is more Ukely to eon vert the rniwion worker to opium than th mmion worker it tn enn ik Chinaman to ChrUtianlti. ; Sir Robert I! art. for many years in charge of the Chine eutuxm. on t.ehaif of the Britiah Government and probably Utter acquainted with Chir a and the Chinese than any other tiiie man. has mad the frank state' nrnt thtt, matter what mission- anes may believe and say. not one Chinaman has ever been really fury- verted to Christianity.
