Porter wishes to make tlie fi 1 lowing announcement: Beginning June 1st and continuing through most of July [ expect to diseu-s questions at the foundation of the be lief iu Christianity. As near as can now be outlined the subjects will be as follow?: June 1, Why I believe in a Personal God; evidenced from lower nature. June 8. Why I believe in a Personal God; evidenced from man June 15, Why I believe in a Personal God; evidenced from other source? and synthesis of ail the evidence June 22. Why i believe Christanlty to be the true and the only true religion. June 29 Why l believe Christ is the son of God. July C. Why I believe the Bible is the word of God. July 13 Why 1 believe ia Future Rewards. July 20. Why I believe in Future Punishment. Being a Christian myself, I believe the Christian position is the only cor rect one. I believe it can be proved to be, not only the most rational, but the only rational position on these sub jects. 1 believe modern science bears out the truth of this statement. During these series of talks, every one will be allowed to ask such ques tions, bearing on these subjects, as he may choose. Questions handed to me or mailed so as to reach me before Fri day noon, will be considered at the next public service. These received later in the week will be considered at the service held a week later. Questions will not be answered at other times than at the regular service, If I can answer questions asked I shall do so; if not. I will frankly admit my inabil ity. In any case honest questions will be met honestlv. These subjects are to be considered because of a belief on niy part that many people are in error on these suh jeots, are honest in their convictions and ready, if led to see their error, to embrace the trurh. I believe error on these basic questions is fatal, and for this reason urge careful, exact, and fair investigation while tbe opportun | ity is open. —— Jenny Washington. Philip Vickers Fithian, a tutor at Nomini Hall, Virginia, in 1774, gives this description of Washington's niece, Miss Jenny Washington. Evidently she was a personable young lady, with all the graces of her time. "Miss Washington is about seventeen; she has not a handsome Face, but is neat in her Dress, of an agreeable Size. & well proportioned, and has an easy winning Behavior; She is not forward to begin a conversation, yet wheu spoken to she is extremely affable, without assuming any Girlish affec tation or pretending to be overcharg'd with Wit; She plays well on the Harpsichord & Spinet; understands the principles of Muslck, & therefore performs her Tunes in perfect time, a Neglect of which always makes w i sick Intolerable, but it is a fault al most universal among young Indies in the practice; she sings likewise to her instrument, has a strong full voice and a weli-judglng Ear; but most of the Virgiuia Girls think it Labour quite sufficient to thump the Keys of a Harpsichord into the air of a tune mechanically. & think It would be Slavery to submit to the Drudgery of acquiring Vocal Muslck. | —Youth’s Companion.

I takes on a 'alyard like this,” he continued, grabbing the trolley rope and pulling until the motorman rang for power. Before he was through with his ex hibition of prow*-.; tin brake had been r: ed as a capstan, the rear seat as a f< ward deck and the fender as a long boat swung from its davits.
