Points and Paragraphs of Things Present, Past and Future. "Hard times" has been a cry "time . hereof the memory of man runneth r.ot to the contrary"; but there is ore feature about business during bard t:me5 that is not properly regarded by nany. When times get tight and fRoney is scarce some people hold on to what little money they can get and vi!l not turn it loose, no matter how much others may need it. They will not even pay -their just accounts and accumulated bills notwithstanding they Anow creditors are depending on them ?or money with which to discharge chtir own obligations. This is all wroug. The harder the times and the scarcer money the more prompt ought every one be in paying nis accounts, if possi ble ; for by this means every other man would be ena bled to pay his accounts also. We suppose that fom Dixon's re signation of the People's Churca in New York might be classed amongst 'passing events," and hence mention it as suitable for this column. With his resignation as its pastor the organ ization ceased to exist. Mr. Dixon says ho will preach no more for five years, may never xrcach in New York again, but wilt retain his residence there. We wrestled with Tom over knotty questions of various kinds in college life and have al.vavs felt great interest in him. We have admired his genius ani generally acknowledged ability, and while some have denounced him we have simply regarded him as se riously erratic ia some thing's. Tom will yet find proper equipoise for one of the country's greatest and most use ful men. Perhaps no industry in North Caro lina has suffered more in any one se i son of late yeara than nas the fish in dustry this season. The extremely cold weather, the continued rains and high water in the rivers have been very disastrous The Washington 'Gazette ays : We asked one of our fishermen would the fishing business be profita ble this season? He replied, "Unless the unexpected happen?, this season will "be the most disastrous one in oar history. Commencing with the cold spell, in which thousands of dollars worth of nets were lost, and lost at a time when it was too late to replace them, coupled with the fact that the run of shad and herring has been less than in years, all go to make this sea son disastrous to the fishermen. So true ia this, I do not believe there is a man engaged in the business that has made money but ha3 lost money. It is true the season is yet two months longer, and it will take a large run of fi h to make us come up even." Rear Admiral Sampson's s-vorJ, de cided upon by the special committee appointed to select a design, is to cost $2,000. There are doubtless varying opinions a?out said expenditure. Some think that it is all right to use public money thus lavishly on a sword, while others think some little economy might b? practiced in the maTter. For the benefit of both classes we give the de scriplion of the sword as foilows : The design represents on the head o! the pommel the coat of arms of the State cf New Jersey, while on the collar of the pommel will be raired letters and en ameled flags crossed, being the em blems of the rank of Captain and of Rear Admiral, signifying the fact that at the -beginning of the war Sampson was a Captain and a Rear. Admiral at its close. The grip will be made of shark's ekio wrapped with go!d wire with forty eight stars, each star beina: 83t with a diamond. The guard, top and bottom will terminate with dol- phins heads with ruby eyes, the ruby being the natal stone ot the Rear Ad miral. The sleeves of the scabbard are to be of gold and the rings are munici pal faseea held to the sleeve by sbirs cables. The monogram will be made of diamonds. " The belt will be etched, showing the position of the American Asset in front of Santiago. The Kind Yoa Haw Always Bought I lUmtlia St SCOTLAND PHESEBT BAY THOUGHTS Th3 Washington Memorial Day. PLANS ABS KATB3IALIZIMG. BY G. GROSVENOR DAWE. Written for The Conjmonweattth. A Washington Memorial. A few words at 3 now timely as io the prog ress of the idea for making next De cember 14 (the hundredth anniversary of his death) a Washington memorial day throughout the country. It is winning approval in several im portant bodies, and thoir influence ia already being exerted to bring it to pass. The Society of American Authors, which includes Mrs. Julia Ward Howe. Mrs. E. H. Walworth, General Lew Wallace and others of importance ha sent the following resolution in en grossed form to tha President of the United States, to the Vice-President and to the Speaker of the House. In addition it has distributed one thou sand printed copies throughout the country : "Whereas, the fourteenth day of next December marks the completion of one hundred years since the death of George Washington ; and "Whereas, the Society cf American Authors recognizes the importance of giviau special emphasis to such a cen tennial ; therefore b3it "Resolved, by the society in annual meeting assembled, that a fit recogni tion of the occasion would b3 the legal cessation of all avoidable labor for that day ; in order that the nation may bo free to do honor to the memory of one whose life and acts and patriotism havT in largo measure rendered pos sible the progress, the strength and the,po!iticaf freedom of the United States." Similar action has been taken by the Daughters of The Cincinnati, and be fore this brief record is read four other important patriotic bodies will have acted in the same way. At the meeting of the bo.ird of offi cers of the Order of the United Ameri can Mechanics cl the 11th instant spe cial action was considered and the na tional secretary was instructed to pre pare petition to the President asKing for the setting a?ide of the day for the purpose. From the bead office a cir cular letter will be sent to every sub ordinate Council of the Order urging similiar and immediate action. Thfs body is exclusively composed of native born Americans. On the other hand, one thousand men and boys on the crowded east side of New York nearlv all of them Rus sian exiles have signed a petition to Goyernor Roosevelt asking for the same tiling, because they recognize how much of the hopefulness thas fills the heart of the emigrant comes from the leadership and success of Washington himself the leader of a large proportion of emigrauls. Furthermore, the Adjutant General and Cbief of Staff, of the United Con federate Veterans, writes : "The Unit ed Confederate Veteran Association is purely social, literary, historical and benevolent and of course was formed for the specific purpose of caring for maimed and disabled veterans, but 1 am sure that every old veteran's heart wiii give a responsive throb in approv al of anvthing which is done to honor tno "Father of His Country," The plans of ihe rariou3 Masonic bodies throughout, the country are also rapidly nurturing. Every Grand Lodge of the country wiil be represented at the Mt. Vernon gathering on December 1 1th and there is also being completed an effort to have every lodge in every corner of the country publicly identify itself with local effort to do honor to the one who though dead, yet speak- Some details regarding , the attitude of the colleges will give further idea of If you have a cough, throat irrita tion, weak lungs, pain in the cr.est, difficult breathing, croup or hoarse- ns; let us suggest One Minnie Cough Cure.

Georgetown University, (Washing ton. D. C.,) writes : "Our faculty had some time ago decided that we should do what we could to commemorate the centennial anniversary of Washington's death, and has therefore arranged to have all the speeches delivered at our commencement by our graduates of this year treat of Washington as a sul ject. The individual subjects will be "Washington as a Citizen," "Washing ton as a General" and "Washington as President." Fists Unierrity, Nashyiile, Tenn. : "We shall mak3 the 11th of next De cember a holiday with appropriate com memorative exercises." University of Denver, University Park, Col.: "We have. decided to ob serve the one hundredth anniversary in some suitable way throughout the uni versity." University of Wooster, Wooster, O. : "It is in every way both appropriate and important. , Ii there is any nation in the world which has noble antece dents worth cherishing, it is ours, and there is special need, considering our conglomerate elements, for looking to 'the hola of the pit' whence we were dug and the rock whence we were hewn.' " " Shaw University Raleigh, N. C. : "We are heartily in sympathy with the movement to have December 14 next S3t apart throughout the country as George Washington memorial day. Our faculty will unanimously agreo to ob S2rve the day and use its mnuenco in this direction." ) University ot Michigan, Ann Arbor, Mich. : "The idea of suggesting specia! celebrations in honor of the memory of Washington is a very happy one. Sure ly we cannot too frequently nor too emphatically commend to our people the lessons to be drawn from his life." Ogden College, Bowling Green, Ky. : "We shall cheerfully do what we can to help in making this a 'Washington year.' Our American youth can have no grander study or loftier ideal than George Washington." Union Theological Seminary, New York : "We are in sympathy with the proposition, and teiieve that a careful and reveieut stud v of so jrreat a sub ject must make for ethical advance and higher iJ.ils of citizenship and patrol tism." West Virginia. University, Morgan town, W. Va : "Wc shall do what we can this ye.u t ; caii the attention ot our students to tho iifo and work of Washington." Coe College. Cedar Rapids, la. : "Our faculty has briefly discussed the wis dom of a special observance of Decem ber 11, and we are confilent that not only in Iowa but i j the whole country there will be an observance of the day and suspension of ordinary bur-i-ness." These encouraging details ire mere ly partial echoes of what is going on ; for when public opinion approves a plan it progresses by leaps and by bounds and waits for uj hand to record it. The streng' h of this movement is that it is b ised upon sentiment. Win n sentiment and dreams ani visions shall fade out of national life, it whl ht a sad 4-d,iv for us. These three are t Lev that es'-isc discontent with mere liying, and make us lay hold on the past and forestall the future as a means of thril ling our hearts with ennobling ideas of national puipose, progress and des tiny. - 7 -.

A FAEMEEKO 1LD8I0N Hs Quit Printing Land, THEY I!TJS3D Wi J Southern Farm Magazine. . A farmer Interviewed by the Green ville (9. C.) News explained his success by stating that he read the newspapers ; that he watched everything clO;eh , fiodinT; that hs could do something on his sixty acres of land every hour of the year, and by watchrng leaks. One state ment ot his was of unusual significance. He said : "I like whiskey, but 1 am laud hun gry ; I want, more land. figured out years ago that . with very moderate drinking I'd drink an acre of good land evsry year. So I quit. At tho end of a year I tell myself I'm just ai acie ahead at $25 an acro"by not drinking. I find when I nut it to my neighbors that Wiiy it makes them think. You tell farmers to think about land every tirna they start to buy whiskey, and calculate how niaoh real estate they are drinking or giving away." A farmer who is about thirty years old, with a wife and four children, is thus described by the News : "He looked like that kind of a man, well fed and well kept. His clothes were strong and warm and fitted bim well. He was in a well-mado wagon, which ran smoothly and easily and bad been taken good care of. He drove a horse which he said is 30 years old and can do as much work as any animal in the country a fat, sleek, dark- bay, with evidences of good feeding, currycomb, brush and rubbing on every inch of his shining skin. The harness was good originally, it fitted like a tailor made gown and every buckle was in place. Thare frus not a piece of string or grass rope or hickory wythe any where about the outfit. It is safe to bet that the man did not have a pin anywhee doing a button's duty, either. He looked as if he had left a wife at home wlio is the same kind of woman he is a man, and who' watches her Iris bind and children and houio just as hs watches his barn and stable3, live stock, tools and running gear. He has a horse thirty years old and appar ently good for five years' work yet, and many a man loses his horse at twelve or .fifteen years and must buy another at a cost of $103 or mor?, simply from failure to fake good care of him."

Thi3 direct appeal to the particular ambition ct each sex, rarely fails to produce the de sired results the children est the crusts prompted by vanity, and iu so doing grow both stroug and pretty through the indirect means of good health. Just so it is with grown chil dren we must eat the crusts of life in the form of hardships, pain and sorrow if we would grow healthy in the eyes of our Maker; strong and attractive in our own eyes.

Some find this eaith a first-rate place to slave and stint and saye, And life's cbief pleasure to consist in being glum and grave ; And othei-3 with a twinkle in the hand and heart and eye, Will staue their lives that they can spend more thau they can find laid by. Some take a drins when they are dry, and frome when they are wet; Some drink for sweet remembrance sake, some that they may forget ; And some there be, like you and me, free from all shame accura'd, Who have laid down a rule for life never to get athirst. Some turn to this some turn to that, for fortune and for fame. And some won't turn for anything, and get there just the same. But there's a common turning point, a fate unkind but just, Where rich and poor, and g.-aat and small, turn one and all to dust. Galveston News. Moral Responsibility of the 'Joker. Fred Nye in the Saturday Evening Post writes very sensibly of the moral responsibility of the joker, and closes with the following strong paragraphs : There are, however, at least two ol the stock subiects of the American humorist which should have been con - fiscated long ago, name! v. liquor intcx - ication and the insecurity of the mar riage tie. Few funny publications are considered complete which do not pic ture a man reeling home from the "club'' with a maudlin excuse to his waiting wife, or a wedded pair com menting flippantly upon the parsing of love or the felicity and facidty of divorce. The effect of (hid sort of literature cannot be otherwise than pernicious. It turns into a joke, in the case of the drunkard, the insult whh'h he has of fered to tlu woman which he has sworn to love and cherish, and raises a laugh over an experience which to her has much the aspect of a tragedy. In the other instance, that obligation which is the most eerious one in iifo is flung upon the bargain counter, nnd the failure of love, wliih, even among the least civilized of us, is a matter of sorrow, is paraded for the merriment of tbe unthinking. Tho effect of this quality of humor upon the old and ex perienced is anything but uplifting; upon the young, whose opinions re garding the rela'ive ;a!aes of tilings are all unformed, it is b mn J to be dis astrous, The youngster who. is inclined to blame himself severely for his fir-t step in dissipation turns to the humorist and is informed that what he has done is not a sin, but a joke ; why should he worry over something about which the world is laughing? The young couple having their first tiffs are grievously worried until they chance upou the sarcastic philosophy of the funny maTi ; then they laugh bitterly at each other, and ask why so absurd a thing as loye should be taken seriously. Their efforts at self-?ontrol and self-abnegation diminish ; it is useless, they con elude, for them to struggle to maintain an ideal relationship in a society which finds opportunity for mirth in pro ceedings lor divorce. In such subjects as lhe:"e k l here ca'i be no real humor, and the man who tries to joke about ' lhe;n is guilty of a moral less-rnajesto which should not go unpunished.
