Vigorous Sermon Delivered) by Rev.
Hugh Davis o the Uanclag Evil.
Us Denounces II Roundly.
Rev. Hugh Davis, pastor of the Weltih
Calvtnistic Methodist church on South
Main uvenuo, invarlu'il another ' in
vective against thu dantlniT evil" at
the evening service lust nlsht. The
warm weather kept way many who
were Interested In the announcement of
the sermon. Nevertheless there was a
larse number of young people present.
Mr. Davis' sermon was in the form of
a well-drawn Document, lie took liis
text from Exudus. xxii:26. After refer
ring to the worshiping of Idols and the
words of Moses In denouncement f the
custom, the speaker came down to the
present time and attempted to Know
that dnnclns was similar to Idol obels
ence. Inasmuch as It places Its votaries
between Cod and thu rightful worship
of His name. Theatres. Intemperance,
and other forms of amusement came
under Mr. Davis' law.
"America is full of Idols," said the
venerable speaker, "a few years neo
things were not as they now are. Now
the land is a race course to wealth and
avarice." In mentioning dancinK he
used the following terms to denounce
It: '-licentious," "a school of iniquity."
"It belongs to the devil," "It shows Its
pressure on weak physical frames mnl
undermines tlje nervous system," "It Is
a fatal rock on which thousands nre
dashed every year." In closing he ad
vised young people not to injure them
selves. There Is a distinct division
between lawful and unlawful pleasure,
said the speaker. "Dancing appeals to
the lower passions of our nature; next
to the saloon it destroys more domestic
felicity than any other evil. As far as
the. statistics of our larger cities go the
abandoned . women are outputs from
dnttce halls. Conscience Is hardened by
It in an attempt to hnrmonlge the prac
tice with Christian profession." The
Hpeaker-dosed by urging fathers and
mothers to wutch over their daughters.

From the Buffalo Express.
A mild-looking man with gold-bowed
spectacles got on a car the other morn
ing. He had a Morning Express in his
hand. He took on his glasses ana
wiped them, as all spectacled men have
to do when going from a cold to a warm
er atmosphere, and was just taking his
paper out to read, when a man who
wns sitting near him reached over and
said:
"Lend me that newspaper, will you?"
The mild-looking man appeared sur
prised. Evidently he did not know the
would-be borrower, and was a little
taken aback by hlB nerve. He wus
equal to the occasion, however.
"I was going- to read It myself," he
said, "but as you seem to need to read
newspapers more than I do, I'll lend it
to you."
The borrower took It without even
saying "Thank you." The spectacled
man leaned back with an expression of
amused disgust.
"Say," he said, "would you like to
have that paper sent to you regularly?
If you would, I'll step into the office
and pay for a year s subscription for
you."
"Why, you are very kind," said the
other. "I usually borrow It. but I
would not object to having it given to
me.
"I thought not," said the spectacled
man. "By the way, have you any
tickets for the theater tonight?"
"No," was the reply. "1 seldom ro
to theaters."
"I was sure of It. I'll step In and buy
a couple of orchestra seats for you if
you line."
"Why, I'm sure"
"Oh, don't mention It. And while T
think of it, can't 1 order a couple of
tons or coal for you?
"Exactly. Your grocery bill Is un
paid, too, isn't it? I'll go around and
settle It for you tonight."
"I really don't understand, sir"
"No, of course you don't. Hut won't

THE WAK CORRESPONDENT.
The Siuare-llullt Scribe Had Two Chance
tosae "Well, General," to Woleel.y.
From the Saturday Review.
"War correspondents!" exclaimed
Lord Wolselev. "Some ot them are
desperately brave, while others are
anything but heroes. The majority, I
think, do their duty well, even when It
leads them Into tight places. By the
way, talking or tight places and war
correspondents, I remember an Inci
dent that may interest you. It was
at the beginning ot the Ashantee cam
paign. Just after our landing; a square-
built little man came up to me and said,
speaking slowly, and with an unmis
takable American accent:
" 'General, allow me to Introduce my
self; I am the correspondent of the
New York Herald. I
"Too busy to attend' to him, I cut him
short with 'What can I do for you, sir?
"He replied, Imperturbably, with the
same exasperating slowness: 'Well
general, I want to be as near you as
I can if there Is any nghtln to be seen,
" 'Captain So-and-9o has charge of
all the arrangements concerning" cor
respondents,' I rejoined, curtly. 'You
had better see him.' And with this I
turned on my heel and went about my
business.
"I saw no more of my correspondent
with the aggravating coolness and slow
ness of speech for many a day. I did
not even know whether he was accom
oanvlnr the column or not.
"Personally speaking, I was only In
dansrer once during the whole expedl
tlon. It was shortly before we entered
Coomassle. I had pressed forward with
the advance troops, hoping to break the
last effort at resistance and have done
with the affair, when the enemy, utlllz
Ing the heavy covert, came down and
fairly surrounded us. For a lew min
utes the position was critical, and every
man had to fight, ror the enemy s tire
was poured in at close quarters. They
pressed upon us from all sides, dodging
from tree to tree, and continually edg
ing closer, hoping to get hand to hand.
In the hottest of It my attention was
caught by a man In civilian s clothes,
who was some fifteen or twenty yards
in front of me, and who was completely
surrounded by the advancing savages.
He seemed to pay no heed to the danger
he was In. but, kneeling on one knee,
took aim and fired again and again,
and I seemed to see that every time he
fired a black man fell. I was fascinated
by his danger and coolness. As our
main body came up and the savages
were driven back, I went forward to see
that no harm came to my civilian
friend. To my astonishment it was the
correspondent of the New York Herald,
and he began In the same slow, calm
way:
" 'Well, general'
"Again I Interrupted him: 'You were
lucky to escape. Didn't you Bee that
vou were surrounded?
" 'Well, general,' he began again, 'I
guess I was too much occupied by the
niggers in front to pay much attention
to those behind.'
"That was evidently the simple truth.
Whatever men may say In the future
about Henry M. Stanley no one that has
seen him in danger will deny that his
courage Is of the first quality. I took a
liking to him on the spot, and we be
came great friends; nor has anything
occurred since he alter my opinion of
him."

WET AND STOCK REPORT
Wall Street Review
New York, May 9. Stocks were firm to
day, but the trading was on a small scale,
62,'jbO shares changing hands, as Sugar,
which was the most active, was dealt in
to the extent of shares, and St. Paul,
which was second, for 8,000 shares. Thu
tendency of prices was upward, the result
of covering of short contracts by opera
tors who were disturbed by statements
that the St. Louts platform will contain
a plank endorsing sound money and on
reports that the gold shipments next week
will be light. The changes, while gen
erally in the direction of Improvement.
were slight. There was some good buying
of St. Paul, brokers credited with inside
connections taking the bulk of the stock.
Other notably Arm stocks were Sugar,
Burlington and Qulncy, Tobacco, Rubber,
Laclede Gas and Huftalo. Urn-hosier and
Pittsburg. The preferred stock of the last-
named on light trading advunced 7 per
cent, to 58. Rubber, Preferred, rallied
from 77 to 80, bat the Improveme nt other
wise was only l,al per cent. The closing
was dull and llrni. Net chuiiKes show Kains
of 7 per cent. In Hnffulo, Rochester and
Pittsburg, Preferred; 3 in Rubber, Pre
ferred, and tnu'i per cent, in the genral
list.
