Amusements tiooil and Ba<l. Thpre is much of what is set down i to-day as necessary human amusement that is bad, and there is much, also, iu amusement that is good. But some good people seem to ihink that in order to condemn and eschew the bad they must condemn and turn away from all. This is a grievous mistake. A certain amount of amusement and recreation is ? as necessary, almost, as food and sleep. Tbe proper thing to do is to draw the line against the bad, and approve and encourage the good. Sunday-school picnics, iunoceut games, and week-day excursions are right, wholesome and ? proper. Encourage them. But the Sunday excursions, and all forms of games, recreation aud amusement which lower the moral standard, deg rade young people, and lead to dissipation and ruin, are to be discouraged and shunned.

Brown and I left Abbeville p for St. Louis. For nearly a year we 8 had been planning to see the "Big j{ Show," but so often anticipations are j not realized. This time, however, our ~ long dream was coming true. We went | out to Hodges on the early morning train, and after a short wait there we tj boarded the train for Greenville. . C( At Greenville we bad a stay 01 iwo n hours and one half, and to pass the t| titue away we took the car and went c up town. Mr. Brown had gotten a 0 cinder in his eye, so we went into g Carpenter Bros, drug store for flax seed, j, , Dr. Carpenter was very nice to us and i when he found out we were from Abbe- a ville be was exceedingly pleasant. jj In Greenville we saw Mr. Ansel and jy Mr. Frank Pearson, formerly of Due f( [ West, and bad a short chat with both ^ of them. tj ON TO ASHEVILLE. it At last we began our journey towards a Asbeville. On the train were a good j many people we knew, among tnem Mrs. Tench Pool of Newberry, and Mr. Julius Boggs. The trip to Asbeville was ideal. The scenery ever changing tj keeps one on the out-look trying not n to miss one view. We stood on the p back of the car and got the most beau- ^ tiful views, but when the steep pull ^ came the flagman, very politely, asked t] > us to go insiae. ine mrgeai eugiuc x ever saw was coupled to the back of C( our train to aid the huge mountain tj climber that was already doing such efficient work at the front. Never in my life have I heard such puffiingand a blowing. .Doth engines and engineers 8j were often in full view at the same 0 time. This part of it is most wonderful, but to fully appreciate the scenery j x one must see it, for no human pen ? ' should attempt to describe it. j?( Placed at intervals are safety tracks ^ that throw the train up the mountain c in case the train runs away. After a passing Saluda it is plain sailing. We j. reached Asheville about seven o'clock a and after making arrangements for the a night, we went out to Riverside Park a and then walked about the city. Ashe- 8] ville is a much larger town than I had 1 supposed it to be and has many lovely p homes. .Battery Park hotel, that we hear so wuch of, is certainly an ideal D resting place. The views from the a broad verandas is all one could wish- ^ The grounds are beautifully kept, aud ? everything is arranged for the comfort a of the many travellers. _ The next morning at seven o'clock, ? "their time," we left this delightful place. Mr. Brown and I went on the H( piazza for a little fresh air and we ^ nearly froze. We had left the hot, 8j dry weather to thesouth of us. I must n confess that the most beautiful part of f( our trip to me was passed over next tj ir morning. On our left the French tl Broad River flowed, and on our right f > the wild, rugged vine-clad rocks, clifls, mountains and valleys lay. For sev- a enty-flve miles we followed this most 0 d beautiful of rivers, and six times we g crossed its waters. I am sure I stood j, d at the rear of our coach for half the ^ d geventy-five miles. The dark, blue 8 lb mists and early morning vapors added t rt a peculiar charm to the already perfect ^ scenery. At last we leave all this { beauty far behind us,' and the country ^ li becomes more level. Then begiDSthe j d miles of wheat, corn, rye aud oats. a c- Never have I seen such fields of g-ain. 5 As far as the eye could reach nothing t but wheat, wheat, wheat. We saw no a hills, no gullies, no waste places?every ^ where was green and fertile and cultivated. There bad been no lack of rain, 8 for in most places the water stood in ? the rows of the corn fields. v a* At Morristown, Teun,, we changed x ,e cars again, taking a train for Knox- a ,e ville. The corn and wheat fields con- t re tinued. One field through which we E 11 passed, the flagman said, contained 150 0 :e acres. It looked as if any one could 9B walk on the tops of it. s- irnnwilie is at last called and as our Jr train did not leave that city until 8:30 i(1 p. m., we decided to put in a aightseeing day. Mr. Brown asked a genm tlernau on the train about points of in- v terest about the city, aud be told us of e 11 several parks. We decided to take our ? n lunch and go to Chilhowe Park aud ? r" spend the heated part of the day, then ^ come to tbe city and see something of g y, 111 E aj' CHILHOWE PARK. C r B- Chilhowe Park is a very cool, shady * ^ place not unlike places of the kind found near most citiee. The large j, spring and its its delightful water is a one of the chief attractions. The park ^ _ was Hilled with women and children. c We found out that one of the mission j jb schools was having a picnic for the t rr? children. One or me James who nas c taught in the mission for nine years r jr told Mrs. Brown and myself n good >u deal about the work. The mission is supported by all the churches, and is te doing a noble work. The keeper of the park is a jolly old Irishman who iy was rescued by the mission years ago, ? ll* and his jokes and pranks kept the poor )e little children in a continuous uproar j Knoxville is a busy, bustling city' l ind has some lovely homes and finej jusiness houses. We strolled around leeing all we could with out wearing )uraelves out. . Mr. Brown arranged u 'or our berths before going out in the norning, so we went back to ihe staion aixl right to our sleeper. The Southern's railroad station is a lew structure, and is very compact ind convenient. Knoxville has every p( :au?e to be proud of it. [* We left Knoxville ou time. Our i'i Pullman was as cool and comfortabJe d< is they ever are. Tbecountry through vhich we passed was full of tunnels. e\ There are 271 believe, but I can't say or certain, as I was asleep most of the ime. i had my window up, country ti ike, aud got my berth full of cinders md my throat full of coal smoke, but pl, iir was what I wanted. Usually just he thought of a train makes me 111, ln >ut I wasn't one bit sick until I got gl u the sleeper. Upon leaving Abbeville Dr. Wana- ,u naker kindly gave me some medicine hat was a sovereign remedy for car icknes*. Several people on the train ot hat were ill I dosed, and every time pl hey were benefitted. Next morning I awaked to find my- re elf in Lexington, Ky. Just outside h( uy window was a lovely blue grass ilot with beds crescent, star and dia- "f nond shaped, planted with beautiful ;eranlums. We had a twenty minutes w top for breakfast here, but we were lot ready for breakfast, so I took the " 'first cell" in the dining car. Every hing in this car was clean and stylish, <ut to drihk coffee and manage other bings with a train at full speed is too ? * A II J 1??_ * M xiucLi lur iue. aii iuu^ wo unv r~, tiled, mile after mile of com, rye and r vheat we passed. Our conductor was ed rery nice about pointing out things of D nterest to us. He told us when we qj truck the famous blue grass region, tu md the oil wells of Illinois, the names Se ?f rivers and many other things that ye ve wanted to know. In the same Pullnan was a Mrs. Hartb, from Columbia, 'ej eho, when I told her I was from Abbe- <?> ille, asked me about Mrs. J. Hayne ' dcDill, telling me that she was a close elative of hers. She came and sat pith us for some time, and we foued J he was going to St. Louis to see a p? rother whom she had not seen for j birty years, and to visit a sister. But 8a forgot to mention that when I step- Rf| ed in the sleeper at Knoxville. who Bd hould I see but Mr. and Mrs. Kinet- i jko, who stayed in Abbeville, at the *Lf TKn't* nroro trnrw nlnuaanf on/1 n juiuaa. xucjr nviv v*j ^ivmomuwmuu j ave us some valuable imformation to bout St. Louis. We were on a fast be rain so made few stops, but still tbe ime seemed dreadfully long. Tbe i anductor would say, "not much longer in ow", and I would straighten up, ben in a few minutes find myself i urled up on my pillow. A pillow is ku ne luxury we had ; I insisted on Mrs. ^ Irown having one, as she was not feel- ed ig real well, just so I could get one. lie At last East St. Louis was called dJ nd I was sure it would only be a wee sh ttle while before I would be in the Mi lecca. I am sure it was one hour be>re we got to the bridge. The con- by uctor collected for the crossing over cic ae bridge and I asked him how much of* , was and he said 25 cents, I said why! m, thought it was 50 cents? He told C ie I could pay that if I wanted to, but declined with thanks. wt To get into the station you have to o under the city, and it is blacker nan night, and bomewhat warmer mi lan Christmas times. It took five wjj linutes to go through this dark hot lace, all the windows are aown ana s ; is awfully scarey. 1 bad visions of ?1 ead-on collisions and all sorts of 0 f< hings. Well here we were, at last after a j snstant move since eight o'clock un- ah 11 nearly six, next afternoon, in St. louis. t In St. Louis I' gave Mrs. Brown's rm a good squeeze to realize, if posble, that we were really on the soil c f Missouri. r?l The station, the station, Buchaplace!! t is is bigger tban our square alto- sec ether. Thirty tracks under the vast to Dver, then the inner court, then the m? uilding; it is perfectly fitted up with rystal chandeliers and tiled floors, / nd with all modern conveniences. Ed [ere we brushed off a little of the dust nd smut of our travels. My face was i source of amusement to Mrs. Brown, of; s it was always covered with beauty 1 ? pots. an At last we are out into the World's b? 'air city. We could scarcely make our way for be eople begging us to stop with tbem d poking cards and guides in our tei ices. vi< We took an up town car then got off 6ei nd began our hunt for a stopping lace. We found a very nice, neat i lace righton direct line to the grounds, fat 3 we decided to remain aa it was aftei even, "their time," we always said. Vf> rtamried not to ero out to the Exno ition but to rest and get an early start ext morning (Saturday.) We weat or a walk and taw many interesting bings. After having supper we re- , urned. Next morning we were ready fo, or the grounds by the "bright lights." tw Now here I want stop, for no one is rej ble to even give one the faintest idea jn f what there is to be seen. l Nearing the grounds on a car, the ops of the imposing white buildings ; ome in view, giving a slight impres- yo ion of what is to come.
