The contemplated Baptist Con- gress that is under discussion, to take place October 26 and 27th, embraces the historical existence of the christian church, with its doctrine, duties and works of its members. Appropriate papers will be read by able and experienced workers of the church and Sunday schools, which will be discussed with great force. The christian women, among the Salvationists, are equal in all re- spects to the Women’s Christian Temperance Union and the Wo- men’s Home Mission Societies. The very able female preacher, Mrs. Mary Obleton, preached a fore- ible sermon at the sixth street Baptist church, on Sunday last, at 3 p.m. The Salvationists held powerful services, on 3rd and H sts. 8. w. The announced discussion on local gambling in the District, which took place at the ministers meeting, on Monday morning last, with a large attendance, was fully discussed. The points brought out resulted in the appointment of a committee on address of grievan- ces to the District Commissioners. And to present the matter before them in as forcible and appropriate manner as possible, that with the assistance of the vigilant committee the several churches and christian missions, they might breax up all such evils in the future.

The Industrial Exhibition held at the Minor Building Friday and Saturday list, marks a decided ad- vance in practical training in our public school life. specially when it is understood that the time for preparation was short, and there was the usual couspicuous lack of unanimity among the trustees. Miner Building was a poor place for the exhibition, but it was the best to be had under the circum- stances. The white schools had the rink. Their exhibition even if of poorer quality showed to a bet- ter advantage because of the con- veniences of arrangement. At 2:30 on Friday last the Ber reporter en- tered the building after having been kept standing outside for a halfan hour. It was a splendid sight that met the gaze of visitors as they filed in continuously until the closing hour. The carpenter shop was first vis- ited. Mr. J. H. Hill was the mas- ter workman of this department in- cluding the 7th and 8th divisions. The work in this departmeut began last September. About 12 hours have been devoted for lectures dur- ing the year. Jointing, dovetailing, pinning, beaming, upholstering and many devices in wood work had been successfully taught and put into actual practice. A long table some 20 ft. long and six ft. wide, was crowded with exhibits of every description. For amateur work it was perfect. The best thing in the carpenter shop was @ minature bridge built by Masters Riley, Ad- dison, White, Gregory and Turner. It was an excellent design and shapely executed. A specimen joint was shown, made by S. Sny- dam, 14 years old. It was a per- fect joint and the little workman bids fair to become a number 1 me- chanic. Beaureaus, chairs, beds, carts, ladders and many articles of domestic use were elegantly made. It speaks well for the man in charge and his ability as an instractor, and the rapid progressive steps made by the young pupils. The scientific room presented hydraulic arrangements for farnish- ing the city with gas; ventilations in mines, sound, instruments, free hand drawings and batteries. There were coils of wire connect- ingtwoor three rooms in which were telegraphic instruments by which frequent dispatches were sent by the small boys. A good drawing of the intricate working of the machine was on the board and the drawing seemed more per- fect than the instrument itself. Girls sew well naturally although there are not many tailoresses. Every kind of garment of various clothes, was tastefully arranged in the sewing room. Each piece having been made by the several girl pupils of the different divisions. Miss Eva Grimsbaw’s bridge hav- ing been made wholly with a pen- knife showed wonderful artistic skill. Miss Eva Smith’s doll baby was quite pretty. The exibits in paper work were attractive, but served almost en- tirely for decorative purposes. Mouldings in clay of every con- ceivable form could be seen scat- tered here and there. Itis to be hoped that there will be harmony in the promotion of these industrial beginnings. The schools have done creditably and should receive pub- lic approbation. —__o a ___ MIXTURES-FUN-WISDOM STALE CHESNUTS, CLIPPINGS. Most men look out for number one.
