G. Merrill, and request that he recall bis resignation as pastor, reported that they had performed the duties assigned to them and that the pastor, after carefully and prayerfully considering the request of the church, was still of the opinion that it Was for the best interest of the same that he should sever bla relation aa pastor. In view ot thia final decision on the part of the Rev. F. G.

Merrill, the committee submitted the following, which was unanimously adopted: "Whereas, This church has heard with hearts full of sorrow that our pastor, the Rev. F. O. Merrill, has tendered his resignation as pastor of this church, to take effect on December 1, 1S99; therefore, be it That the resignation of the Rev, F. G.

Merrill, as pastor of this, the North Baptist Church, be and Is hereby accepted, the same to take effect December 1, 1899. 7 "Resolved, That the board of deacons and church clerk are hereby appointed to secure supplies for our pulpit from December 1. 1899, until a regular pastor is secured for the same. "Resolved. That a committee of three be appointed to draft resolutions express ing the sorrow this church feels In thu severing our relations with our dear pastor, the Rev.

Q. Merrill." It was a sad scene when the church was called upon to adopt the above preamble and resolution, and sobs could be heard all Over the building. The Rev. Merrill came to the North Baptist Church first as supply, in November, 1894, and was or dained to the ministry on September 12. 1895, at which time he became Its regular pastor.

Since then the church has steadily grown and over one hundred new members have been added. For over two months past he has been impressed with the conviction that It would be to the best Inter est of the church for a change of pastors to take place. During his pastorate he has been an earnest, faithful pastor and wise counsellor, the members have become at tached to him and he to them, and in breaking these ties he leaves the church united and in. good working condition.

TICKETS 2S CENTS. Flam Eclating to the Scope of the Work Discussed. PROGRESSIVE MEASURES Cwsaastttsj WU1 Revised Md Hum Fersoms Iaterested la i PiUto Sclee-l EdMstlom WU1 be Pls.es Upom It Pwblie KMtUg to be Callod. At the meeting of the executive committee of the Education Society of Wilmington, held on Friday afternoon at the New-Century Club, plana were discussed for the scope of the work which the society de-alrea to take up. and while nothing delicate waa decided upon, a public meeting will be held a soon as arrangements that are now In progress' have so shaped themselves that they may be carried As the committee Is now constituted it Is composed mainly of those who are directly interested in carrying out the educational policy of the city, and It is deemed necessary to make it and the society 's constituency conform to the general plan of similar societies in other cities where they are composed of representative men and women of leisure, the latter largeiy predominating, and not of those directly interested In the management of the schools.

The object of an Education Society is to create a healthy sentiment in favor of uch measures as are progressive in character and of value to the schools, by bringing into them outside influences, but In nowise to interfere with the legitimate work laid down by the Board of Education or with the administration of the schools by the properly appointed officers and teachers. The wisdom of having such an organization composed of outsiders entirely is fully demonstrated by the success of the movement In other clues. The teachers themselves are naturally carrying out to- the best of their lodgment and ability, very measure that will aid in the elevation and advancement of the schools, and are adjudged by the proper authorities to be capable of doing so. What the schools need is to have closer support from outside influences toward t'ie widening of their The present executive committee with Miss Mary I. Williams, assistant superintendent of schools, as Us chairman, and Principal A.

H. Berlin, principal of the Wilmington High School, as its president, is largely composed of the city's leading educators, and it will be to flu society's Interests to entirely revise the committee at the next meeting and to place for theirs' the names of citizens who are in sympathy with the teachers and public school education, and who desire to become members of such a society. In all cities where education societies are in a flourishing and healthy condition the one central idea is to create a closer union be- tween the public and the teaching force of the city and to bring In closer bar-; agony. With the Immature plans of the Wilmington society in his mind, Mr. Berlin, during the summer, visited daily "a sum mer school in Cambridge, Mm, which was supported' by their Education Society, for boys and girls who would otherwise, hate scent their time on the streets.

For the purpose, $1,500 were collected by the members, and two hundred and' fifty boys and one hundred and ten gisjs given daily in struction in manual training, singing. cooking 'and sewing and dressmaking. The Board of Education gave free the usa of the splendid manual-training building and one other and the society paid the salaries of the competent It was of extreme pleasure and interest to watch the progress of the classes. This is but one example of wjiat such an asso ciation enthusiastically inclined can work out by employing ideas in a sensible and practical manner. Mr.

Berlin was es pecially gratified with the comprehensive scope of the work which moved along clearly defined lines and with an elabo rated plan complete to minutest details. That there Is such a field in Wilmington for this and other phases of practical helpfulness. Is a well-recognized fact and there 'are legitimate lines for effective work in upbuilding and upholding the influence of the schools, but it- must not degenerate Into mere fault-finding with existing methods. A society with self -constituted authority should have a thorough ac quaintance with the actual needs of the schools and not merely a superficial know ledge of them. Reforms along whatever line projected must have a clear, definite purpose with an end In view constantly.

Before the public meeting is called, it is probable therefore that the various subcommittees named on Friday to take up 1 the different fields designed to be included In the society's scope, will discover that tt should be carried on, it at all, by the educational committee of the New-Century Club, by whom it was primarily suggested, with the help of tha city's representative men and women. It is held by those interested that the success or failure of the movement should not be left as at present, In the hands of influential educa tors, however well qualified they are for the work. As it now rests the benen ciartes to the plan are charged with the details of working it out, and it is believed an entirely new executive commit tee will be appointed at the next meeting.

CLOSE AND EXCITING GAME Stroac Lafayette Eleven Defeats Cornell fat a Game at Ithaca ky a Score of 6 to Princeton lexers Defeat tke Indiana, amd Harvard Wins From Dartmouth.

There were two hotly-contested football games among the colleges on Saturday, but there was only one surprise. It was ex pected by those on the outside that Cornell, which, this year has defeated Princeton, and rolled up, a big score on Columbia, would win from Lafayette, aa the game waa played at Ithaca, on Cornell's own grounds. The Lafayette teem made away with the Cornelllans, however, by the score of to 6. Cornell's only touchdown waa made on a blocked kick. Stock of the University of Pennsylvania eleven went up several pegs by reason ot the defeat of the strong University of Michigan eleven In Philadelphia.

The score was close 11 to 10 each side making two touchdowns, but Michigan failed on both attempts at goal. The Michigan boys were a sturdy set, and McLean, their half-back, is probably the best man in that position to-day. He made many long and beautiful runs, gained more ground by runs than did Pennsylvania, and outplayed the University boys completely in the first half. In the second, Pennsylvania took a brace, and won out, the final point being made In the last minute of play. Princeton, in New York, won a victory over the Carlisle Indians and prevented the red men from, scoring, at the same time making twelve points, Yale disposed of the Pennsylvania State College by a score of 42 to 0, and Harvard, in a poor game.

defeated Dartmouth by 11 to 0. Other scores were: Annapolis, 35; Trin ity, 0. Columbia, 16; West Point, 0. Chicago, 76; Northwestern, 0. Brown, 38; Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 0.

Villa Nora College Wins by a Score of 6 to Warren met its first defeat of the season on Saturday, losing to the Villa Nova Col lege team by the score of 6 to 0.
