Disciple Missionary Leetares.
Rev. F. W, Brown, Missionary to
India, plcaw.l and etiified a large ssU
intelligent audience at each service of the
Church ol Christ Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Brown have Sent sevcrul
years of their lives in the most torrid
portion of the great Iodiin empire, labor
ing according to thur ability and the
means furnished tbcm for the religious,
and moral uplifting of a portion ol India's
two hundred and eighty-eight millions of
benighted and misguided religious
zealots, and he informed his hearers that
even if there were no future life to think ol
he would gladly give his services for the
sake even of accomplishing the temporal
betterment that comes to the heathen
through the shining of the gospel light.
Mr. Brown's lectures consisted nlmost
entirely of the narration ol what had come
under his personal observation. The
sad general condition of the natives ol
which he told and the tortures to which
he had seen them subject themselves in
the name of religion were enough to
awaken the sympathies of every one nud
arouse them to missionary effort. Mr.
Browu made plain the trulh thot it ij as
much the duly of christians at home to
uphold the hands of foreign lubrrcrsas it
the duty of the hitter to go abroad for
the work.
Mr. and Mrs. llro- n labored in the
foreign field until (he breaking down of
his health compelled his retirement to
save his life. His health beinir restored
he is now ready to return as soon as the
church is ready to send him but before
leaving he is profitably using some time
in giving to the churches at home a
clearer conception of the missionary
work and the crying need there is for
strong and nnremittiti j pressing of the
work.
Mr. Brown in speaking of the dearth
of workers contrasted this country with
India and showed on a map a diagram of
a portion of India 'equivalent in area to
the State of North Carolina. In that
whole section there were but two mis
sionarics, and even this did not make the
comparison strong enough for in that
area the popnlatiou was six or eight times
greater than in North Carolina.
The lectures were illustrated with
maps, genuine household idols, and pic
tures of temple idols.
Both lectures were fine, especially the
one at night, and we aic glad to say the
audience that heard it was large enough
to pack the church.
Mrs. Brown made an address solely to
ladies in the afternoon and a short inter
esting talk at the evening service. The
object of her remarks was mainly to
encourage organized work among the
ladies witu gentleman as auxiliary con
tributors to the societj they form.
A special collection was taken up and
organization; lor regular work left on a
somewhat better footing than before.
Mr. and Mrs, Brown departed on the
morning train to continue their work.
Doll Show and Oyster Supper this Eve
ning.
The ladies of Christ (Episcopal) Church
Sewing Society announce that circum
stances have arisen which compel them
to change the date of their entertainment.
It will be held this (Tuesday afternoon
and night at the Henry house on Middle
street, beginning at 4 o'clock this after
noon, instead of tomorrow as previously
advertised.
It is earnestly hoped that the two
feasts offered to our community for this
evening, ono for the mind Dr. Hume's
lecture the other for the body, this oys
ter supper may not conflict, but prove a
mutual benefit and support. Enjoy both
the intellectual and gastronomic treats,
and thereby ensure the "Ment tana, in
eorpore tano. '
Come and see the dainty array of dressed
dolls for Santa Claus, the orange tree full
of golden fruit, each orange containing a
prize for tbe little folks, besides which

candies, ice creams, etc. Admission free.
The Norfolk Virginian says that several
hundred thousand dollars have been
subscribed to a stock company which is
now being formed in Cincinnati, and is to
have a capital of $1,000,000. Its pur
pose is to develop the rich and inex
haustible deposits of marl along the coast
of Virginia.
The stranding of the British steam ship
Wetherly off Hatteras is continued
evidence that a first class light should be
placed at this dangerous point right
away. Fortunately all the crew were
saved by the stalwart men of our Life
Saving service. The steamer was bound
from Fernandina to Norfolk with phos
phate.
The annual Hebrew Thanksgiving
serrioas in commemoration of the dedica
tion of the second temple at Jerusalem
were conducted , Sunday evening by
Rabbi L Kaiser. They were largely at
tended by Gentiles as well as Jewish
citizens. Members of nearly every relig
ious denomination in the city could be
seen in tbe congasgation. The Rabbi's
discourse was of a patriotic, historical
character and tbe singing on the occasion
was very good and pleasing to : the
audience. ' Especially fine were - the
solo- parts snog by Mr. Kaiser whose
rich and graceful voice is so expressive
of deep feeling. .-. V - . ; ;
