Seme FaeU la Reference t This Excel lent Beaovoleat Iastltatlea. Mr. T. A. Green expresses high pleas ore at all he observed While on his re cent visit to the Oxford Orphan Asylum and gives us some points which it is well enough for the public to know about Mil. Mr. Green delights in the improved methods by which the Asylum is being operated and also in the practical man ual training along certain lines which the scholars receive in addition to the regular schooling. Connected with the schM is a good. steam laundry, ilie ;.i'iin , and ironing all lieing done s.i : o A pump supplies otli buildings through pies n ilh n'l l!ie water wanted. It is operated i n same engine that runs the laundry. A number ol good milk con s, 12 or 1". are kept. A tailoring di-pai tment is run by I lie girls. In it they cut and make ull clothe for Uitli boys and girls except what are donated to tlio Asylum ready made. The boys run a shoe shop on the si.iul plan. No ready mado clothing or shots are brought. This make the apparel come cheaper but gives a trade at tlie same time. The Orph ins Friend, the organ of I he institution is also run by the inmates. Tho children who are educated at this orphan's home stand well when tlicy leave. Mr. V. Duke of Durham, recog nizing the good habits to which they would have been trained, and being dis posed likewise to pla;-c those who leave the school in a position to look out for themselves, has given directions to his manager lo always give employment to every one who applies lor it liotn tins school and it is stated to show the law abiding effect of the moral and religious training imparted ut the school that in its whole history not ono who passetl through it was ever convicted for any offence in any court. The last report of the Supeiinleudent shows 215 childicn on the roll 11 were admitted during the year, 13 placed in homes, Xdicd ami 1 1 were discharged. The account kept with the farm run in connection with the school allows a net profit from it ol 75 .82; the one with shoo shop a net profit from it of $551.27; the printing office a net profit of $1,410. i!2 Kep.tir9 and additions to the buildings ami other improvements have been made during the year ut a cost ol $2,033. Drowned Near Hattcras. A terrible experience-was undergone a few days ago between Hatteras ami Ocra cokc. Mr. Phil Gaskins and Levin Quid ly had started in a sail boat to Hatteras. loaded too heavy with set tint stakes. The boat capsized and Gaskins was drowned. Quidly remained on tlie oot toia ol the boat four days and nights without food or water, and was picKe I up by Mr. Wm. Gaskins. This all happened in sight of the life saving station, we have heard, where the men could be seen walking on shore, et no assistance was sent the suffering man. Washington Gazette. The experience which the Gazette tells of is indeed a terrible one. It is to be hoped, Jiowevcr, that investigation may prove that no blame either for careless ness or wanton nsglect may attach to the life saving station people. The class of men in charge ot these static ns have a good name for bravery and lor willingness to nsk thoir live s when, necessary in behalf of others in dan ger and, we doubt not it will be fonnd taat the cause of their not sallying forth to the rescues was simply a failure to understand that their services were need ed.

A. says: "I have been identified with the Young Men's Christian Association for nearly thirty years and my sincere convic ti n is that it is one of the most practical and useful institutions in existence and the more I know of it the more decided is my admiration for it." ,T. DeWitt Talmage says: "Tne Young Men's Christian Association is the right wiug of the Lord's army.' Philips Brooks, D. D.. says. "I high ly value the work of the Young Men's Chnstion Association and consider it sn important part of the Christian church." Bishop E. B, Hendricks says: "After careful observation and reflection I have ventured to call the great work of the Young Men'. Christian Association the fplitrinna movement k nf tha nineteenth century.

NOR I'll CAROLINA HATE8 The Wilmington Star has been trying to help out Tin News in its advocacy of blackiierry culture, and writes a two col umn article. The Star puts up a good case, too. Incidentally, it says that the persim mon crop should not be neglected, and gives this incident: 9ome years ago a barrel of persimmons was sent Irom Greensboro to a commission house in St. Louis. Tlie party who sent them didn't know whether they would sell or not, but iu duo time he received a letter with a re mittance of twenty-five dollars, tne barrel brought over aud above the freight and commission. Thoy were old as "North Carolina dates," when dates were higher priced than they are now. The merchants knew what they were, but thought they would go better as North Carolina dates than as North Caro lina persimmons and called them North Carolina dates. Thoy could have sold more if they had them but the date supply was exhausted with that one experimental shipment, and eeforo the next season came around the old man who shipped them had crossed the river and gone into the land where there are neither dares nor persim mons and few St. Louis commission merchants. But seriously the persimmon is worth experimenting with and worth cultivat ing as an experiment to bee what there 1 in it, for the result might be a delight ful and a valuable fruit. It is a very eaty matter to experiment on putting them up cither in jelly form or as dates. Charlotte News.
