The state teacher's instituted or Liv- ingston county will commence in Howell on Monday, Aug. 17. Mrs. Will Thompson went last week to West Branch to join her husband who has been there some time. Seventeen new brick stores occupy the recently burnt district in Fowler- ville. Four more will be built. . Be careful of your gasolene stoves. We do not want to chronicle as sad an event as transpired at Ann Arbor last week. Lee Reeves, of Lansing, was in this vicinity last week taking care of his wheat. He returned to his home the first of the week. It is calculated that the Kingling show people carried away $5,000 of Livingston's wealth. Enough to run a church quite a while, eh? E. L; Avery our dentist is enjoying a vacation this week and will not be in this place on Friday as usual, but will resume business next week. A teacher's examination will be held at Howell on Thursday a nd Friday, August 6 and 7. The examination will be governed by the provisions of the old law. Fowlerville will build a fine school building costing between $4,000 and $5,000. They have purchased an ad- ditional three acres of ground for a school yard. Geo. Fields, cf Hamburg, was ar- rested at the T. & A. depot in Ho well on Tuesday of last week, charged with selling liquor without a license. He was taken to Hamburg. Sixty-two teams were hitched on our streets last Saturday night at half past nine. The streets were thronged • with people and much business was done. Although the night was not very warm the Dorcas society had a big ran on ice cream. Mich., who have spant the winter in Pasadena, are in this city for a month. —Santa Barbara (Cal.) Press. Some complaints have been made about the condition of our sidewalks. Would it not be well to have them fixed before a suit of damage was com- menced. A. C. Cady, of Hamburg, has sold his trotting mare that he has had in training at Howell and Fowlerville this season for the handsome sum of $575.—Herald. We would respectfully call the at- tention of our patrons to our rules for advertising, that are to be found on the first page. They have not been changed but some have forgotten them evidently. Lightning struck the house of -loan Sleight, of Iosco, last week, doing con- siderable damage and knocking that gentleman unconscious. He thinks electricity is all right but don't like it in that wav. W. W. Waite, who was sent to Jackson prison from Brighton a few years ago is gaining in "weight" and has a good practice in dentistry. His time expires this fall and he will set up an office in Jackson, Mrs. A. G. Leland, while standing up in a buggy on Sunday last fell out backwards striking on her neck and shoulders. Being an old lady her in- juries are quite severe and she has, been confined to her bed. Miss Gertrude Andrews who has been visiting her aunt. Mrs. R. Tiplady and ether relatives and friends, has re- turned to her home at Air ^ine Junc- tion. The DISPATCH will be a visitor at her home in the future. Every available space was filled in two coaches on the east bound accorao- dation train Monday morning, by people bound for the national encamp- ment. Several went from here and will remain through the entire week. Mrs. Frank Hendersides, of Wyotti- ng, Co. New York, is the guest of her sister, Mra. H. W. Lake. Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Andrews, of Owosso, visited Mr. Andrews 1 brother, F. L, in this place this week. Have you read the clubbing offer of the DISPATCH and Free Press in another column? Old subscribers can avail themselves of this offer by paying up arrearages and fJ5 cents in advance. John Slocum, of Green Oak, cap- tured a white eagle near Petteysville which he had on exhibition at the en- cam praent, only for the arrival of the regulars John would have lost his treasure. It measured 5ft., 4in.—Ar- srus. A. M. Allen who has been acting as It. R. agent here during the absence of Mr. Tremaine, returned to Detroit on Saturday. He will go from there to Ferryburg next week. While here he won many warm friends who will join with us in wishing him success. The Livinsrston Democrat had a good article in the last issue about "Snide Advertising." A man has | been at work there and secured a good many dollars on "card board" ad- vertising, at the rate of from §7 to $S a piece from those who are too poor to advertise in ihe paper. Good! give it to'era John. On Monday last Nellie Lake returned home from Howell where she has been visiting a few days, in the afternoon, about twenty-five of her friends went to her home and gave* her a very plea.s- *»t~*Urr-pr-Ue,—TPP. ni-pqn and cake was served on the lawn and a very fine time was enjoyed by all. She was the recipient of numerous presents. Do you take the weekly Tribune? If not we make you a good offer. Send us $1.50 and we will send you the DISPATCH and Tribune both one year. If you are an old subscriber and wish to.jiccept this offer pay up "arrearages if any andiLoOlrTadVanee"." The Tribune is a clean paper and we hope to be able to send them a good list on this offer. The veteran soldiers are all exempt from poll tax as will be seen by an act passed in 1S85: "The people of the State of Michigan enact, that- all soldiers, sailors, and marines, resident and being in the state of Michigan, who are regularly mustered into, and have been honorably discharged from, the service of the United States, shall be exempt from the levy and payment of any poll-tax during their residence in this state." As Dan Murta was coming to town on.Friday afternoon driving his fine black horse, the animal became frigh- tened when near the bridge at a new board, which necessiated Mr. Murta's getting out and leading bim across the bridge. While climbing into the cart the horse made a quick start. jerking away from Mr. Murta and plunging into a barbed wire fence near the bridge, tearing up one post getting into the wire in such a manner as to cut seven bad gashes in his breast. He then ran up town coliding with a lamp post smashing the cart into splinters. He was caught and Dr. Koeve sewed up and dressed the wounds. It is u bad injury to a fine horse. They were discussing a scandal case that will scon be brought into our court, when the senior of the party re- marked: u I am not at all surprised. The only wonder with me is that more such cases do not become public. When parents permit their girls to runXhj? streets, to go to depots, to flirt with Tom,Dick and Harry, start off ou an excursion without a natural pro- tector, to be out at all hours ef the night, and run and gad about general- ly, it is a waste of sympathy to shed tears when harm comes to the girl. True, parents cannot always control their children, but they would at least have the satisfaction of knowing they had done their whole duty, and that should count for something, not only in this life but in th» one to come."— Ann Arbor Courier. Church News. Regular services at St. Mary's church on Sunday next. The corner stone of the new Catholic church at Fowlerville will be laid on Sunday next by Bishop Foley. The ladies of the M. E. church will serve ice cream in Teeple k Cadwell's store on Saturday evening. Ice cream and cake 10 cents. The members of St. Mary's cliurch will hold a picnic in Haze's grove one week from next Saturday, August 15. Good speakers will be in attendance. Come everybody and have a good time. The following are the subjects at the Cong'l church next Sunday: Morning, 'The Religion of Jesus j-Ghrist, an Expansion;" evening, ^The^ Jordan, what occurred on its banks. The lawn social at Wm. Hooker's in this village on Tuesdav evening was a success. Miss Wallace, the elocutionist proved herself to be a fine elocutionist and entertained tho company with. manv fine selections. In a Wreck. Dr. Siffter and purty pans through the nccnett incident ton wreck, but without Injury. The Evaporator. The building for our evaporator is nearly completed and will be ready for use before apples are ready. It will befitted up for drying all kinds ofj apples, cores, pealings and all, besides turning out the best quality ot evap- orated fruit. The evaporator is a Williams machine, as good as any made. The firm will employ three men besides the two employers, and six girls, every day in the week, and more on packing days. We hope the apple crop will be sufficiently large to make this a paying industry in this village. We clip the following from a Den- ver, Colo., daily: "Denver, July -•">.—The narrow- gauge^ east-bound express from SaHda, Colo., on the Denver and Rio Grande^ collided with the broad-gauge Salt Lake Express, going west, a few miles from Carlisle, early this morning. The trains were running full speed and were heavily loaded. The engine and front coaches of both trains were completely wrecked and four persons were killed." * * • • f. * * Dr. Sigler, son Claude, and Robert Stackable were passengers on the broad-gague train, occupying a sleep- er, which was probably the reason they excaped injury. A great many per- sons were severely injured and the Dr. writes that his medical and surgical grip came handy. He assisted in am- putating a limb for one person, took up an artery for another thus saving his bleeding to death, doing all by the light of a brakeman's lantern. This is the third time the Dr. has made a trip west and each time he has been in an accident. W r e hope he may always be as lucky as heretofore. The party reached San Francisco all right and set sail for the islands. If all is well they will be enjoying themselves in Honolulu by the time this reashes our readers. LATEK:—A communication from Dn H. F. Sigler states that there were five killed outright and three died at the hospital, besides twelve being serious- ly injured and as many more slightly.

We clip the following from a Den-ver, Colo., daily:

"Denver, July -•">.—The narrow-gauge^ east-bound express from SaHda,Colo., on the Denver and Rio Grande^collided with the broad-gauge SaltLake Express, going west, a few milesfrom Carlisle, early this morning.The trains were running full speedand were heavily loaded. The engineand front coaches of both trains werecompletely wrecked and four personswere killed."

Dr. Sigler, son Claude, and RobertStackable were passengers on thebroad-gague train, occupying a sleep-er, which was probably the reason theyexcaped injury. A great many per-sons were severely injured and the Dr.writes that his medical and surgicalgrip came handy. He assisted in am-putating a limb for one person, tookup an artery for another thus savinghis bleeding to death, doing all by thelight of a brakeman's lantern.

This is the third time the Dr. hasmade a trip west and each time he hasbeen in an accident. Wre hope he mayalways be as lucky as heretofore.

A BURGLAR'S STORY.

Some years ago mo and the gentle-man who was at that time connectedwith mo in business—he/a met withreverses since then and at present isn'table to go out—was looking' aroundfor u job, being at tho time ratherhard up, as you might say. We strucka small country town.

There was one bank there; the iiager was a rich old duft'ur—owned thomills, owned the bank, owned most ofthe town. There wasn't no otherofficer but the cashier, and they had aboy who used to sweep out and run oferrands. The bank was in the mainstreet, pretty well up one end of it—anice, snug place, at the corner of across street, with nothing very nearit.

We took our observations, and foundthere wasn't no trouble at all about it.There was an old watchman thatwalked up and down the street atnight, when he didn't fall asleep andforget it.

The vault had two doors. Theoutside one was chilled iron, andhad a three-wheel combination lock.The inner door wasn't no door at all.You could kick it open. It didn't pre-tend to be nothing but fire-proof, andIt wasn't even that.

_ _.Tlie_first thing we done, of course,was to lit a key to the outside door.As tho lock on the outside door wasan old-fashioned Bacon lock, any gen-tleman in my profession who chancesto read this article will know just howeasy that job was and how we done it.

This was our plan: After the keywas fitted I was to get into tho bank,and Jim—that wasn't his name, ofcourse, but let it pass—was to keepwatch on the outside. When any one

then 1 doused the glim and lay low:after they got by I goes on again. Sim-ple and easy, you see. Well, the nightas we selected, tho president happenedto >:e out of town; gone down to thocity, a-* he often did. I got inside allright, with a slide lantern, a breastdrill, a small steel jimmy, a bunch ofskeleton...key_fl_and a giieen-Jjijiize bag tostow the swag. I lixed my light andrigged my breast-drill; and got to workon the door right over tho lock.

I went on steady enough; only6lopped when .Jim —which, as I saidbefore, wasn't his real name — whistledoutside, and the watchman toddled by.I heard Jim—so to speak—whistleagain. I stopped, and I'm bio wed ifthe/Midn't come right up the bankstops, and I heard a key in the lock. Iwas so dumbfounded when I heard thatthat you could have slipped tho brace-lets right on me. 1 picked up my lan-tern, and I'll bo hanged if I didn't letthe slide slip down and throw the light"right on the door, and there was thomanager. Instead of calling for help,as I supposed he would, he took a stepiuside tho door and shaded his eyeswith his hand and looked at mo. Iknowed I ought to knock him downand cut, but I'm blest if I could, I wasso surprised.

"Who are you?1' says he."Who are you?" says I, thinking

that it was an innocent remark, as hocommenced it, and a-trying all thotime to collect myself.

"I'm tho president of the bank'"enys he, kinder short: "something thematter with the lock?11

By George! tho idea came to methan.

"Yes, sir-" savs, I, touching mvcap; "Mr. Jennings, he telegraphedthis morning as the lock was out oforder and he couldn't get in, and I'mcome on to open it for him."

"I told Jennings a week'ago,1' saysho, "that ho ought to get that lockfixed. Where is he?"

"He's been a-writing letters, andhe's gone up to his house to get an-other letter he w?anted for to answer.''

"Well, why don't you go on?'' sayshe.

"I've got almost through," says I;>iand I didn't want to finish up and

open the vkult till there was somebodyhere."

"That's very creditable of you,"says he; "a very proper sentiment, myman. You can't" he goes on cominground by tho door, "bo too particularabout avoid in ar the very suspicion ofevil."

"Xo sir," says I, kiuder modest-likc.

"What do you suppose is tho mattertho lock?" says he.

"I don't rightly know yot," says I;V rather think it's a littlo wore,

on account of not boing oiled enough.These 'ore locks ought to be oiledabout once a year."

"Well," he says, "youmight as wellgo on now, I'm here; I will stay tillJennings comes. Can't I help you—hold your lantern, or something ofthat sort?"

The thought came to me like a flash,and I turned round and says;

"How do I know you're the presi-dent? I ain't ever seen you aforo, andyou may be a try in1 to crack this bankfor all I know."

"That's a very proper inquiry, myman," says he, "and shows a most re-markable degree of discretion. I con-fess that I should not have thought ofthe position in which I was placingyou. However, I can easily convinceyou that it is all right Do you knowwhat the president's name- is?"

"No, I don't," says J, sorter surley."Well, you'll find it on the bill,"

says he, taking a bill out of his pock-et; "and you see the same name onthese letters, "and he took some lettersfrom his coat.

I suppose I ought to have gone righton then, but I was beginning to feelinterested in making him prove whohe was, so I says:

"You might have got them lettersto put up a job on me, '

"You're a very honest man," sayshe—"one among a thousand. Don'tthink I am at all offended at your per-sistence. No, my good fellow, I likeit—I like it!" and he laid his hand onmjr shoulder. "Now, here," says he.taking a bundle out of his pocket, "isa package of £2,000 in bonds. Aburglar wouldn't be apt to carry thoseabout with him, would he? I boughtthem in the city yesterday and stoppedhere to-night on my way home to placethem in the vault, and I may add thatyour simple and' manly honesty has sotouched me that I would willinglyleave them in your hands for safe-keeping. You needn't blush at mypraise."

"I suppose I did turn sorter redwhen I see them bonds.

"Are you satisfied now?" says he.I told him I was, and so I was. So

I picked up my drill again and gavehim the lantern to hold, so that I couldsee the door. I heard Jim, as I call

"Turn, outside once or~ twice," and I"liketo have burst out laughing, thinkinghow he must be wondering what wasgoing on inside. I worked away andkept explaining to him what I wasa-try ing to do. He was very much in-terested in mechanics, ho said, and heknowod as I was up in my business bytho way 1 went to work. He askedme about what wages 1 got, and how Iliked my business, and said lie took a'aiiBy.kiaiiii.- _ I J-umoJ,around once ina while and looked aThim<H""there as solemn as a blind owl, andI'm blamed if I didn't.think I shouldhave to holler right out.

1 got through tho lock pretty soon,find put in 'my wire and opened it.Then he took hold of the door andopened the vault.

"I'll put my bonds in," says.. he."and go home. You can lock up andwait till Mr. .Jennings comes. I don'tsuppose you will try to fix tho lock to-night?"

I told him I shouldn't do anythingmore with it now, as we could got inbefore morning.

"Well, I'll bid you good night, myman." says he, us I swung the door toagain.

Just then I heard Jim, by uarae,whistle, and I guessed tho watchmanwas a-eoming. up the street.

"Ah," says I, "You might speak tothe watchman, if you see him, andtell him to keep an extra lookout to-night."

"I will," says he, and we both wontto the front door.

"There comes tho watchman up thostreet." "Watchman, this man hasbeen fixing the bank lock, and I wantyou to keep a sharp lookout to-night.He will stay here until Mr. Jenningscomes."

"Good night, a^ain," says he, andwe shook hands again, and he went upthe street.

I saw Jim. so-called, in the shadowon the other side of the street, as Tstood on the step with the watchman.

"WelJ, says I to the watchman, "I'llgo and pick up my tools and get readyto go."

I went back into tho bank, and itdidn't take long to throw tho door openand stuff them bonds into th"& bag.There were some boxes lying around,and a safo I should rather have likod totackled; but it seemed like temptingprovidence after the luc.k we'd had. Ilook-ed at my watch and seen it wasjust a quarter past 12. I tucked my jtool9 in the bag on top of the bonds and Jwalked out in front of the door. The \watchman was on the steps.

"I don't believe. I'll wait for Mr.Jennings," says I. "I suppose it willbe all right if I give you his key?"

"That's all right," says tho watch-man.

"I wouldn't go away very far fromthe bank," says I.

"No, I won't," fays ho. "I'll stayabout here all night."

"Good night," says I, and I shookhands with him, and mo and Jim—*which wasn't hifl right name, you un-derstand—took the 12:150 express, andthe host part of that job was we neverheard anything of it.

THE FARM AND HOME.

THE FARM IS THE BESTFOR THE BOYS.

PLACE

Give the Boys H Direct Interest In Btockauud Crops—The Farmer'! House

— farm Noton »ud House-hold Hints.

The Farm the WontIt is unfortunate that human be-ings

will not "let well enough ulone."Hoys especially are restless; the aver-ago country boy in better .situated thanhis city or town cousin, but he can't bomade to beliove it. Ha imagines if hecould exchange his position on thefarm to a clerkship of some kind intho city, he would not only make moromoney, but would havo a much easiertime, to say nothing of the great dig-nity (?) that attaches to clerical work.Yeiy frequently thu boy who is bestsituated is the most restless; one wholives on tho farm with father andmother, where" everything is grownand furnished to Ills hand, very fre-quently grumbles at his condition amithinks he has a harder time than any-body else.

His restlessness is ilu>' in part, nodoubt, to tho fact tiuit \\w boy is giv-en no din ct interest n • .o-aail stock.Ills father a:*.d inot.ier in.is tell himthat he is working for himself when heis improving the farm: that lie someliay will inherit >omo of it, etc., butthat dou't satisfy like making him a_partner in the business, by giving hima small per cent of the prolit iu cropsand stock so that he can feel and seethat ho is making something. Peoplehavo to feel like they are making somo-thing or they will become restless, andespecially is this true of tho boy. Butleaving aside the boy who luus a coun-try home, wo will speak of the ono whohires out "by tbo month to work on thofarm. It would syem that if any coun-try boys would be dissatisfied that classwould. Hut let's compare their con-dition with that of those who hire inthe city as clerks, factory operatives,etc. A good hand on the farm willget all the way from $l;j to $k20- permonth. That may seem little, whensome town "dude" is getting maybe,S3>x.Qr..$40 -pot- mouth. Hut -wo mustremember the boy en the farm is get-ting his board besides; ho havS to buyfewer clothes, has fresh air, purewater and "bash" that hounderstands. The city clerks,factory operatives, etc., maymake $•"> or $10 a week or $2o to $40per month, but they havo to pay theirboard out of that, which at the lowestligure for respectable board would notleave them mort than «j*10 to $-0 per

board as the average farmer gives theywould havo nothing left: their expen-ses for clothes are greater, theybreathe impure air, drink bad waterfrequently, havo less chance for read-ing and recreation.and have surround-ings generally which compare, unfav-orably with thoso of tho country boy.

It is true that there are a few oc-cupying paying positions in the city,but on examination it will bo foundthat they havo spent a great deal oftime and money in preparing for somespecial work, and generally have aload of responsibility to bear, fromwhich tho masses receiving less wagesare exempt. But the masses, prob-ably 80 to 90 per cent of the employesin a city after expenses are paid have1-ess money left than tho boy workingon the farm for $lo or $20 per month.

The farm is the best place, and ninetimes out of ten the restless boys ontho farm to-day, after a few moreyears of observation and experience,will themselves be convinced of thofact.—Journal of Agriculture.

Farm Proverbs.Use diligence, industry, integrity,

and proper improvement of time tomake farming pay. Do not keep morjerlivestock on your farm than you cankeep well. House all things as ihuchas possible, animals, utonsjis andcrops. When you are offeped a fairprice for your produce do not store forrats and speculators. The moro com-fortable you can keep your animalstho more they will thrive. A goodcow is a valuable machine; the morefood she can properly digest the great-er the prolit. A few roots daily to allthe stock are as welcome as apples toboys and girls. Iron rihoes on sledslast a life time ai,,l are cheaper in theend than wood en ones. Replace thebars where yon '.ificn pass by stronggates, and then wt-ndor that you didn'tdo so before, Although in drain-ing land thoroughly your purse maybo drained, yot the full crops thatfollow will soon lill it again. Alwaysgive tho soil the first moal; if it is wnllfed with manure it. will feed all el so*plants, animals and men. A borrowedtool if broken, should 1>o replaced by anew one. A sense of honor in suchmatters is much to be commended.—Farm and Home.

Flvo Acrcn Knnuffh.A man, if ho is industrious, perse-

vering and economical, can make ucomfortable living on flvo acres ofland by combining poultry and fruit.''Fruit trees will thrive right in 1ho henyards, and small fruits can be plantedright outside the hen enclosures. Inthe summer the most attention can bepaid to tho fruit; in winter tho hens.In the east there arc a larp* number

earning good and honost livings bjdoing this, and no state offers betteiinducements for men of moderatemeans than Iowa, and no business iiso well adapted to tho circumstance!of men of moderate meuna as a com*bination of poultry and fruit. Begicsmall and increase both branches atnuonoy and experience prompt.—Southern Farm.

WHOLESALE SLAUGHTERERS.

De-Jordftu Boys Vowed Death to•erters »ud Kept Their Vow.

Near New Holland, Ga,, there is alittle swamp near the toad. At itsBdge stands a large white-oak tree.Years ago this spot was often pointedDut as the scene "of the murder oftwelve men, and the place bore thereputation of being haunted. It waa

whero as used to be the general prae- i tinetly heard by passersby. No onetice, says an exchange, they speedily ever stopped to investigate, as we canbecome a nuisance and destroy more . testify from personal experience, saysthan they oat. Hut they pay for care a writer in the New Yor k Dispatch,and feeding as well as any other farm > having heard the groans! some four-stock. They may bo plucked everysix weeks through tho season, begin-ning with the first warm weather inspring, when a portion of tho feathersbecome loose arid'fall out themselves.One-third of a pound of feathers maybe taken from a full-grown goose ateach picking, and if well fed after-wards no injury results from pickingone each «ix weeks until cold weatherputs a stop to such work. Watch forthe times when the feathers appear toI'omo easily. They are then said tobe "ripo." If this time goes by it willbo hard to make a satisfactory pickingthrough tho year. Hesides the cropof feathers, each female gooso should

been years ago, and having also donesome of the most distinguished travel-ing in all our eventful career.

Hut to the story: Howard Thompsonwas a witness to the killing, which oc-curred in 1863, he being about 10 yearsold at tho time. The killing was doneby Hob and Hen Jordan of Pickenscounty, and the murdered men weredeserters who had been arrested in(illmer county.

Whilo the Jordan "boys were in theconfederate army a crowd of desertersvisited the house of their father, as-rsaulted their bister and the wife ofHob Jordan, and carried their father,who was about 70 years old, through

feathers, and be a cash articlo in thopoultry market during tho holiday sea-son. A tlock of geeso gives in feathers,eggs, and increase a.greater propor-tionate profit than most kinds of farm-stock.

What You Don't Know.You don't know tho cost to you of a

pound of butter; you don't know howmuch milk you sell; you don't knowhow much it costs you to feed a cow ayear;'you don't know which food is themost economical, and how much of iiyou can afford. You sell your prod-ucts for lo-s than their cost, and makeup the ditTet'iinet,v from some othetsource, and, finally, make an assign-ment.

Hob kept a'list of tho names and dates in a smallbook. He was pursued ono day, andin crossing a river lost his book. Itcontained 125 names. After that nokept no record. This was before thokilling near Gainesville.

TALK OV FACTORYENGLAND

IN N1W

By Major

CHATTER IV.—

One night—it was about eleven o'clock—Mrs. Markham waa summoned to thepresence of her master in the library.

It was a stormy night. The vain bat-tered against the panei—the thunderprurnbled and the lightning flashed con-tinuously without—the great elms bentand Surged under the tierce winds—some-titiK'H the low grumblings of the thunderwoulil cease, to |?ive place to a buddencmsh \.hich camo down upon the earthlike tin; roar of Home concealed artillery.

fcsuch a ciash bui-st over the roof of thejpansiqn a, Mrs. Markham opened the li-brary door and entered the presence ofher master.

Her face was ghastly pale &» eh« etoodbefore him.

"Oh, Peter, what a terrible night!" sheexclaimed dropping down upon the floorbeside him and resting her head againstthe old mans knees.

"It is indeed, Martha, an awful night,"and the bony hands of old Dillon wan-dered over the head of the housekeeperwith every sign of fondness.

"Here," he said, stretching out his handto a decanter near, '"taste a drop of thisbi-andy; it will do you good."

The woman drank the brandy, an«l thenrising to her feet, she bent over the oldman, and, strange to relate, pressed a fer-vent kits on his wrinkled brow.

The face of Peter Dillon waa Boftenedas he gazed upon the woman—hoc pure love,looked out from his eyes, and met a warmand sweet response from the woman at hisside!

What strange revelation ia this! Letthe progress of our story tell. .There wasa pause of several moments before eitherBpoke again. At last the old man said ina low tone of voice; "Well, Martha, howare you getting on—have you given herthe—the "

"Yes, Peter, this is the sixth time thatI have administered the powder, and it isworking splendidly j in two or three weeksshe will be as plastic as putty in yourhands or mine—and I have no fears butwhat she will do as you wish. Then youmust hurry up your arrangements, for Iwill not dare administer the potion longerthan the time already specified."

"She does not suspect anything!" re-turned the old gentleman in the same lowtone.

"Suepect anything! Impossible. Sheprobably lays it all to her continued con-finement, which by the by, helps me ma-terially."

'•In three weeks time, you say, she willbe ready ?"

"Yes, purely in that time if nothing hap-pens to interfefer And that reminds trieby the by, that she has received' a letterfrom NPW Hampshire, with an invitationto visit thei'e; it is from one of her schoolfriends. She will call iijxm you to allow,her to accept the invitation. You mustrefuse?

"Of courne—of course—but she willdoubtless take on alxuit it considerably,won't she?"

"I think not. I will administer aetrrjriper dose than usual to-morrow, whichwill tend much to neutralize her spirit ofopposition,"

"~ "THIt is'there Bhould be a discovery of this?"

"Have no fearn, Peter, wo are safe inthat respect—and that reminds me—whydid you give Walter that check for $5,000this afternoon !1'

"I had to give it to him— he is in Bomomoney trouble or another, the result ofbis gambling, no dmibt. I trust that it isno more. I wouldn't^havr given it if Icould have helped myself, you may de-pend. But how did you learn iti"

"I waa listening at the door," repliedMartha coolly,

The old man smiled and Martha con-tinued:

"You must cease giving him money; itwill only deepen our troubles. He mustremain more at home—it is only for a fewweeks, and then—well, then he'll haveplenty to squander, and time enough todo it in. But he must remain more athome."

"I'll have a talk with him. I have nodoubt he will Bee that it is to his interestto do so." Her* the old man paused for amoment and looked irresolutely into theface of the woman before him—he hesi-tated for a moment and then again heepoke.

"We are getting into—no—no dangerthrough what we are doing, Martha, arewet"

"The master mind of the diabolicalscheme against the happiness of KateDillon in those words were fully displayed.The natural weakness of Peter Dillonhere shone fully forth.,, A grim smilepassed over the hard firm countenance ofMm. Markham, as she answered slowly—•'Getting into danger, Peter," the woman'stongue always took on a strange tender-ness as she uttered his name—"No—nofear of that; I have been toognarded—Iun security itself—it is only Walter I fear—to Walter you must tell nothing, it is notsafe, he is not to be depended \\\ion—andit is for that reason I have my eye andear at the door when he is with you."

So the conversation of this strange paircontinued into (he night. The thunderrumbled without. The lightning flashedover town and city, and in the noise andlight of all—in the very presence of thewrath of God, villain* plotted and tradedhuman lives away!

CHAPTER V.

MM, MARKHAM IS SCRPRISBD AT WI1AT PUBLEARNS OK KATUKRIJFE DILLON. TUBFAINTKR'B STCDIO.

The I'hnnge, though gradual, in thehealth and personal appearance of KateDillon, became rrrtrre and more apjiarent jeven the servants, whom phe encounterednow and then t<x>k notice of it, and spokeof it to Mrs. Markham, who only repliedthat it waa no more than natural.

"What can you expect, she would Pay,••When she confines herself entirely to herroom, not even taking a walk in thegrounds, than which, 1here nro none,more exclusive. Why, sho, won't evenwalk down to the dining-rooms; the factis Kate is sulky, I suggested to her, butyes.te.rday traido out with Mr. Walter,

and do yon know she said she had not theleaat desire to. I also Bpoke of sending-for Dr. Bennington—but she would havenone of him—in tact, I 4o not know whatI can do for the girl—I know that she iamoping her life away, but what can onedof" and the servants echoed, "Yea, whatcan one do—indeed!"

Her cousin Walter was seldom at home,though this fact was not known to Kate,and even if it had been, it is hardly prob-able that t*he would have run the risk ofemcount .ring him, as he might come uponher at any moment.

Kat« knew herself that she was notwell; but as she felt no sickness, only astrange lassitude, which she attributed tolaziness and the warm weather, she tookno heed of the pallor of her cheeks, butlay back day after day in her easy chair,gazing from the window and wondering atthe emptiness of her life, and where it allwould end!

She was sitting thus one day when aknock sounded on tho door and Mrs.Markham entered.

Kate received her with a languid smile,even rose up and offered her a chair, andMartha noticed that she actually seemedpleased at her presence.

"I haven't seen you for a long time,Mrs.Markham—where have you been!'*

"At home continually, rny dear; but it'sno wonder you've not seen me—you; keepyourself so closely confined to your apart-ments. You will injure your health mydear, if you continue this mode of exist-ence much longer."

'Oh, 1 am very well—you see I keepmyself occupied,'" pointing to a nearlyc*>«*»pleted, picture on the easel, in herpainting-room, the door of which waawide open. "Come and look Rt it, and tellme if you admire it," and the fair girlaroBe and led the way into the studio,where a number of paintings finished andunfinished were laying against the walls.

It was an odd looking place that whichMrs. Markham entered. A number ofmodels in plaster were scattered about theapartment, and on the magnificent paint-ed walls were hung some rare gews of artwhich had been presented to her byfriends who had picked them up in theirEuropean tours.

On a long table lay pallets and brushesin great abundance, and squeezed colorflasks were scattered about amid shredsof canvas and bits of pasteboards, cover-ed on both sides with strange and well ex-ecuted designs.

Books of designs of rare value, 'foreignphotographs, and well-thumbed worksof art gave indications that the Queen ofthe studio was an industrious student;and the completed paintingB, scores ofwhich lay al>out against the walls, tables,on the floor, and piled together in the dif-ferent corners of the large and pleasantapartment.

To say that Mrs. Markham was astound-ed as she witnessed these evidences ofKate Dillon's wonderful skill with thobrush and pencil, would, by no means,convey the feelings with which she lookedabout.

This woman, though only a housekeep-er, was no mean judge of art. She hadl>een in houses which contained some ofthe best paintings in the land, and hadfrequented many galleries"of art, wheretime and taste could well be cultivated—so that when she jrazed upon the scattemleffortB of. Kate Dillon's genius, she couldhardly realize that this was the girl who.-ewiii she was gradually undermining, andwhose determined nature she had so de-itberj^JyiJtiHjjtftejiiitLtii^ihi^i-—- -

One after another she examined thebeautiful landscapes natural and ideal, asthe fail* girl exhibited them, giving ventto enthusiastic expressions of surpriseand delight.

One after another she looked at mill,and stream and tree—at mountain scenes,at valleys fair and tinted skies; at fairycottage and rugged farm-house, with hereand there the jx)rtrait of some dear andfar away school-friend—-each picture onlyadding to her surprise and delight—at length she could contain herself nolonger—

"Why, my dear, you have & true geniusfor art—these jointings are worth hun-dreds of dollars—wit'h a reputation be-hind they would 1>e worth thousands—youhave indeed wonderful genius!'' The as-tonished dame gazed u,t her with eyesBhining with admiration, and, for the time,entirely forgot that sire was plottingagainst the happiness—primps the life ofthis Innocent child of genius.

"So Madam Devenent used to fifty," re-turned Kate quietiy. "She often said, in-deed, that if my riches took to themselveswinga and flew away that my brush wouldbe my resource and fortune."

"And she spoke truly, child. You haveindeed a rai-e resource; and heaven onlyknows"—she continued in an undertone—"how soon you may need it!"

"It is a pity that all women have notsome such means to fall back upon—Imean women of wealth and position, who,when misfortune comes upon them, findthemselves stranded and incapable," saidKate.

"It is indewl, if such were the caaethere would be less misery in the world,and more hope for society," replied Mar-tha, in a thoughtful tone, with her greyeyes bent upon tne pale and beautiful faceof her companion.

"There are many accomplishments be-sides painting that one may l>e educatedto in our academies, among others, archi-tecture, for whidi 1 have a great fiincy,and am no mean architect, 1 can assureyou," with a laugh—"designing, engrav-ing, and numerous other branches of art1 could mention, and lor which Indies areeminently fitted—but we have not pro-gressed to the 'bc.tt/tiful fjw/h and yet Ido not think it is far away."

Wonder upon wonder! The astonish-ment of Mrs. Markham wwas ever on thoincrease—she waa not prepared for thiastrange union of genius ami good sense—this girl WHS wise beyond her years; shepossessed a mind thoroughly cultivated}atid, for a moment, the face of Walter Dil-lon rose up IWore her ami she thought,with something like a shddcr, of the con-,sequences of a union l^tween two spiritssn diametrically opposed. That feeling,however, was only momentary, and sheresumed the examination of the paintings

until nearly nil of them were looked overand commented UJMHI.

'•Why do you not dispose of thetn MisaDillon—you would realize quite a Mim, asmall fortune indeed, by so doing!*

"I have no need—I 'beiiitve I am ricTi,

emphasized—"if I were not, probably 1would do afl you have said."

With that she led the way back to hercosy boudoir, and the two resumed theirBeats and the conversation.

"Put on your hat child, and walk withme in the grounds—the day ia very beau-tiful—<io come and I will gather you abouquet of flowers—do come, dear I1'

AH she made the request there appearedto be an anxious gleam in her eyea, anddoubt in the very tones of her voice, andshe awaited the answer with considerableanxiety.

"I snail be delighted, Mrs. Markham'."and Kate proceeded to get her bat, feel-ing for tho first time in months that Mar-tha was a very pleasant woman, and won-dering to herself that shejiad never dis-covered it before.

If the invitation to go forth into thegrounds, was an experiment on the partof Mrs. Markham, it was evidently suc-cessful.

She had now decisive proof that hercourse of treatment was moving toward atriumphant result; and Bhe exulted in thefact, that the girl who, but a few days be-fore hated the very sight of her, had sud-denly taken the warmest fancy to her, BOmuch so that she had invited her into the"holy of holies"—the. studio, which foryears had l«en closed to every humanpreaeuce but that of its beautiful Mis-tress.

WALTER IS A8TONI8HKD AT HIS COUSIN'S CU-RIOUS BBCEHTION o y A DBCLAKATIOK OFLOVE.

From the time of th* first visit of Mrs.Markham to the studio of Miss Dillon, agreat change had taken place in her hab-its and demeanor. Thenceforth the house-keeper was a constant attendant on heryoung mistress, and she waited on herwith assiduous attention. Her visits werealway* welcome, and poor guileless Katesremed to take great delight in them.

She no longer confined herself to herroom, but at all hours she wandered incompany with Mrs. Markham through thebeautiful grounds of the mansion but atno time- was she invited to ride, ajid in-deed gave no sign that she ever experi-enced a desire to.

She seemed to have forgotten all abouthorses or drfCes; or, in fact, anythingelse. Her painting was neglected, herpiano was closed and silent, and her wholewjsh and desire seemed to be for the com-p>ny of the woman who was doing her sodeadly an injury.

Of her own free will she nnw often wentto the library, and entered into .senselessconversations with old Mr. Dillon whotreated her with peculiar kindness.

She had grown into the habit of encoun-tering1 her cousin Walter, and that younggentleman was thunderstruck at the sud-den predilection she exhibited for his so-ciety.

li.e often sauntered among the flowerswiih her, and rowed her upon the littlelake until Walter Dillon actually came tothink' that his cousin Kate was actuallyin love with him.

Kate seemed to have forgotten all dis-likes. She seemed now to hate what here-tofore was her love and her solace—herpaintings anil her pictures. She couldhardly endure to be alone in her room fora rnoment. She neglected her toilette; be-f.aui« careless in her divus, and wanderedaround wtguelesisly and without an aim.

The color had entirely left her cheeks.She was thin and white; the bright ex-

she went quietly where she waa led—andwhen Mru. Markham wished to experi-ment did exactly as nhe was told. .SheFneined to have no will of her own; no de-pi re to act upon her own repj)onsibility.—-She even seemed contented and happy.

Y">t, when Kato Dillon was alone, sheseemed for a time toshake off this strangelethargy, but resumed it like a garmentwhin Mrs. Mnrkhatn, and indeed, whenanybody else was with her.

One beautiful afternoon she waa arrang-ing some flowers in the conservatory, andsinging softly to herself, a habit, which oflate, she had indulged in much more thanformerly.

She was Kinging as plie deftly arrangedher bouquet, when her attention waa at-tracted to the footsteps of someone enter-ing the conservatory by the window whichopened from the ground.

She turned her head and beheld Waltersmilingly advancing towards her.

She closed her singing, and turninground to him paid in a tone of pleasure:

"Why, Walter, where have you been! Ihave not seen you since—since—

''Since this morning, coz—when I rowedyou out upon the lake. You haven't for-gotten that I hope," he answered in an in-jured tone.

"I had indeed forgotten1 it—I thoughtit wa~s yesterday you sailed me on thelake; but I am getting very absent-mind-ed cousin Walter, and you must forgiveme."

"Indeed I will forgive you a thousandtimes—only I do wish you would think ofme more than you do."

"Oh, I think of you very often—butwhy should I think of you more than anyone else cousin j see isn't that a pretty blos-som!" she suddenly exclaimed, holding upto his nose a beautiful pink she had justplucked.

Thus suddenly in conversation she flewfrom nno subject to another, jrrave or gtiyit mattcved r,ot. and this r.mrse lunl sether down in Walter's iniud, tor .1 confirmedeoijiirite; for, to do tho man jrnstiee, hedid-not know that there was any reasonwhy her mind should IHJ affected, as it un-doubtedly was.

English trade journals, the estab-lishment of the eight-hour work-ing-day in 1w colony of Victoria,,Australia, has neither achieved thebenefits claimed for it by its pro-moters, nor brought about the mis-chief inputed toitby itsopponents.The eignt-hour day in Vietori»,which was established by theactionof the ^Trade_ Unions, ami not by

- legislation, neither raises WtTges"nor reduces them, and does notdimnish the number of unem-ployed. It is suggested that thewomen iif A ictoria are the chiefopponents of the eight-hour day.'They are always ready, to work alittle longer in order to earn alittle more money. But as con-cerns the labor of men, it is an al-most universal opinion in the colo-nies that the men work harder nowwhen they arc at their work, andturnout work of better'quality,than under the ten-hour system,so that as much work is done, ineight horn's ns was formerly donein ten. , This new order of the day.th^i, in Australia, according toadvocates of the system, is result-ing in the growing-up of a workingC-IHSM which, in morals, intelligence,and industrial ability, is likely tobe superior to that of any otherbranch of the Anglo-Saxon race.Still there is a vast difference be-tween the small community ofVictoria and the crowded popu-lations of Western civilizations.—Demorest's Magazine.

Anti-Nuisance League.From ••Tin' Boston Tmvellor.

A novel organization, called the"National Anti-NuisanceLeagn//'has been formed to test the con-stitutionality of the liquor traffic.I t is believed that this traffic is soessentially contrary to public, wel-fare that all laws that license itare in violation of theoonstihition-al rights of t!r> people, and will beso declared by t.lie courts if tesicasrs ; u v properly brought beforethem.

The Anti-Nuisanre Len^ne hasbeen fonned to bring the matterto the attention of the courts.The headquarters of the lennueair

~~tri New York. TV. 1rest is its president and treasurer:John Lloyd Thomas is secretary,

and E. J. Wheeler, Horace Waters,i and Henry 13. Hudson, with thepresident and treasurer, constitutethe board of directors.

The league was organized in18S8, but its work has not beenpushed until lately. j Nfow it liasresumed activity, and proposes tobring matters to an issue. Exten-sive correspondence with lawyershas resulted in much encourage-ment that the plans of the leagueare feasable. A test case will soonbe pressed at Washington, underthe directions of Hon. H. 13. Moleton. I t is proposed to inauguratesuits at law in a number of States,against prominent saloons as pub-lic nuisances. Then, it' necessary,these cases will be carried up fromcourt to court, to the iinal appealin the Supreme Court of theUnited States. i

In all cases expert testimonywill be called in. The aim will beto show that not only a perticularsaloon is a nuisance, but that theliquor-traffic, as a whole, is a detri-ment to healty, an injury to pro-perty, and a menace to good order,which no legislature can rightfully ,sanction by licensing,

Unfortunately, the Governmenthas long assumed the business to ;

be legal till forbidden by a State;and this assumption may establisha precedent which cannot be over-thrown. At the same time, severaldeclarations have been made bythe courts that give good groundfor hope that the league may K\successful. The United StatesSupreme Court has declared, 111,U. S.,,751: "The State cannot byany contract limit the exercise ofher power to the prejudice of thepublic health and the publicmorals." So elsewhere, 102, U.S., 816: "No legislature can bar-gain away the public health or thepublic morals. The public them-selves cannot do this, much lesstheir servants. .(Jovernment is or-

It is related of Moody, thoevan-gelist, that he was sitting in hisfamily carriage at the North fieldstation recently as a train came in.A stranger mistaking him for ahackman, ordered him, with someshow of authority, to drive to ahotel, and without a word of dis-sent, the great preacher did as hewas bidden. He refused to takeany pay for his services, however,and this ex<*itec the curiousity ofthe man, who appears to have beena minister. He was dumfoundedto learn that the hackman, to whomhe had also made free commentson Mr. Moody's work in course ofthe drive, was none other than theevangelist himself. -Springfield(Mass.) Kepublican.

Even' if the league fails in itsmain object, to secure an injunc-!tion on the liquor traffic, it will Inot fail .in' bringh g out a mass oftestimony as to the evil of thotrall'c, and in calling the subject tothe attention of the public in away that must have a great intiu-

Avoid chill—that is one form of poisoning. Avoidimpure air';—that is another and muohmore insidious form of poisoning.11

MOI>KKX science has done a greatdeal for her votaries in more w;iys thanone, and unions the most important ofher benefactions is the greater insiyhtInto the causes and prevention of dis-ease which has been afforded us in thelas.t half century. Although sanitationand ventilation are still sadly neglected,it is rather from neglect of known lawsthan on account of any really prevalentignorance.

IT SPEAKS well for the public tastethat even in this whisky and beer guz-iling country of ours, water, as a bev-erage, is attracting public attention to

""Srgreater extent just now than at any(^ipirmer period of our history.

Water for drinking and cooking pur-poses, also, is a matter which is atpresent being considered by sanitaryscience with a view to determining whatmay be done to insure thebest possiblesupply of this indispensiblo element.

POLITENESS is not all of Christianity,it is true, but it is a manifestation ofChristianity—of the higher laws gov-erning human nature and forcing it toadvance from brutality. If these lawawere first succinctly and clearly de-clared by the Founder of Christianity,they had nevertheless existed beforehis appearance, and every student of"anthropology," of the natural historyof man as an animal, of his life as abrute, a»d of the causes of his pro-gTess away from tho brutal, may see

^dearly that "not one jot or one tittlecan pass away from tho law until all

"be fulfilled.11.

THE greater magnitude of Amoricahas produced a corresponding sense oflargeness and loftiness in Americans.The consequence is that the Americandoes discriminate And if tho peopleof any nation under tho sun couldhastily form an intelligent judgmentduring a week's trip of another nation—and one which, given off-hand, wouldbe reasonable correct—it would beAmericans, because from childhood upto old ago Americans have opportuni-ties of seeing and sampling foreignnations and peoples by tho close ac-quaintance which constant immigra-tion has provided in their own coun-try.

WHEN a revolt overtook the ancientchurch, every seceder from her do-minion carried the bible along as hisdearest treasure. When printing be-came the preserver and disseminatorof literature the bible became tho mostpopular of books. It is now. Thereis every reason for believing that itwill continne to be. The remarkablefact in its progress is that it has sur-vived its interpreters. All generationshave charged upon the text their ownerrors. Every sophist has drawn fromits wisdom confirmation of his sophis-try. Each sect finds in its chapterswarrants for its creed. Every newthought in the world may be found,directly or indirectly, expressly orimplicitly, within or between its lines.

T H E world grows better and freerslowly, but it grows. But its centu-ries are not the same for all men. Per-haps there are houses in Now York(and in Boston, maybe) where thetwenty-first century has already come,liut there are thousands in a few milesof them who are still living in thoseventeenth.

Wls., July 26.—Dr. Tal-mage preached this morning ate- Chau-tauqua Assembly on the banks of Mo-noua Lake near this city. It is a greatgathering of people from all parts ofthe Northwest, ilis text was Esther4: 14: "Who knoweth whether thouart come to tho kingdom for such atime as this?"

Esther the Beautiful was the wife ofAhasuorus the abominable. The timehad come for her to present a petitionto her infamous husband in behalf ofthe Israelitish nation, to which she hadonce Belonged. Wie wasui'niid^to uuder-taketheworkle.it she should lose herowu life; but her unele, Mordeeui, whohad brought, lier up. encouraged herwith the suggestion that probably shehad been,raise.I up of doit for that pe-culiar mission. "\» 1m knoweth whetherthou art come to the kingdom for such.a time as this',1" hsther had her God-appointt'd work: you and I have ours.It is my business to tell you what styleof people we ought to be iu order thatwe may meet the demand of the age iawhich God has cast our lot

In the first place, in order to meetthe special demand of this age, youneed to bo an unmistakably aggressiveChristian. Of half-and-half Christianswe do not want any more. The churchof Jesus Christ will be better withoutten thousand of them. They are thechief obstacles to the church's advance-ment. I am speaking" of another kindof Christian. All the appliances f«ryour becoming- an earnest Christianare at your hand, and there Is astraight path for you into the broaddaylig"ht of God's forgiveness.

But, my friends, you need to ba ag-gressive Christians, and not like thosepersons who spend their lives in hug-ging their Christian graces and wonder-ing" why they do not make any prog-ress. How much robustness of healthwould a man have if he hid himself iua dark closet? A great deal of pietyof the day is too exclusive. It hidesitself. I t needs more fresh air,more out-door exercise. There aramany Christians who are giving theirentire life to self-examination. Theyare fee ing their pulses to see what isthe cot- iition of their spiritual health.How li ng" would a man have robustphysic.;. he ilth if he kept all the daysand we- and months and years of hislife fev>,Mg his pulse instead of going"out iuto active, earnest, everydaywork?

I was once amid the wonderful, be-witching cactus growths of North Caro-lina. I never was more bewilderedwith the beauty of flowers, and yetwhen I would take up one of these cac-tuses and tmll the leaves apart, thebeauty was all gone-| You could hard-ly tell tha t it had "ever been a- flower.And there are a groat mtmy-Ghristnin"people in this day jast palling aparttheir Christian experiences to seewhat there is in them, andthere is nothing attractive left. Thisstyle of self-examination is a damageInstead of an advantage to their Chris-tian character. I remember when Iwas a boy I used to have a 6aaall pieooin the garden that 1 called my own,and I planted corn there, and every fewdays I would pull it up to see how fastit was growing. Now,there are a greatmany Christian peop.e in this daywhose f Bejf-ex»raination merelyamounts io the pulling up of thatwhich they only yesterday or the day 'before planted.

0 my friends! if you want a stal-wart Christian character, plant it rightout of doors in the great field of Chris-tian usefulness, and though stormsmay come upon it, and though the hotsun of trial may try to consume it, itwill thrive until it becomes a greattree, in which the fowls of heaven mayhave their habitation. I have no pa-tience with these flower-pot Christians.They keep themselves under shelter,and all their Christian experience in aBmall, exclusive circle, when theyought to plant it in the ereat garden ofthe Lord, so that the whole atmosjjherecoald be aromatic with their Christianusefuluess. What we ^want in thechurch of God is more brawn of piety.

"But," Rays some man, "I liberallvsnpport the gospel, and the church i«open and the gospel is preached: allthe spiritual advantages are spread be-fore men, and if they want to bosaved, let them come to be baved; Ihave discharged all my responsibility."Ah! is that the Master's spirit? Is therenot an old hook somewhere thatcommands us to go out intothe highways and the hedges andcompel the people to eome in? Whatwould have become of you and me ifChrist had not come down oft the hillaof heaven, and if he had not comethrough the door of the Bethlehem jcaravansary, anj if he had not with the ;crushed hand of the crucifixion knocked !at the iron gate of the sepulcher of our :

spiritual death, crying, "Lazarus, comeforth?" O, my Christian friends,this' ia no time for inertia,when nil tho forces of darknessB«em to be in full blast: when stpamprinting-presses are publishing intideltracts; when express railroad trains arc :

carrying messengers of sin: when fastclippers are laden with opium and rum;when the niq-ht-air of our cities is pol-luted with the laughter that breaks upfrom the ten thousand saloon> of dissi-pation :irul abandonment; when t'lefires of the second death already arokindled irl tlui cheeks of somewho, only a iiile. while api,were incorrupt. Never since thocurse fell upon t be earth has then* beenQ tinift when it was such an IIIIWH1,finch a cruel, such an awful thing forthe church to sleep! --f4:he—great audi-

ences are not gathered in the Christianchurches, the- great audiences aregathered in temples of sin—tears ofunutterable woe their baptism, theblood of crusned hearts the awful wiuoof their sacrament, blasphemies theirlitany, and the groans ot the lost worldthe organ dirge of their worship.Who ever noticed ^such a style ofpreaching as Jesus has?" Kzekiel hadtalked of mysterious wings and wheels.Here came a man from Capernaum undGenessuret, und he drew his illus-trations from the lakes, from thesand, from the ravine, from thelilies, from the cornstalks. Howthe Phuriseen scoffed! How Herodderided! How Caiaphas hissed!And ihis Jesus they plucked by thebeard, uud they spat in his face, midthey called him "this fellow!" All thogreat enterprises in aud out of thechurch have at times been scoffed at,and there have been a great multitudewho have thought that the chariotof God's truth would fall to piecesIf it once got out of the old rut.

And so there are thjRJse who have nopatience with anything like improve-ment in church architecture, or^withanything like good, hearty, earnestchurch singing, and they deride anyform of religious discussion whichgoes down walking among every-da/men rather than that whiiih makes anexcursion on rhetorical stilts. Oh. t&attho church of God would wake up toan adaptability of work! We must ad-mit the simple fact that the churchesof Josua Christ in this day donot reach the great masses. There arefifty thousand people in Edinburgh whonever hear the gospel. There are onemillion people in London who neverhear the gospel. There are at leastthreo hundred thousand souls in thecitv of Brooklyn who come not underthe immediate ministrations of Christ'struth; and the church of God in thisday, instead of being a place full ofliving epistles, read and known of allmen, is more like a "dead-letter" post-office.

Ah, my friends, there is work for youand me to do in order to gain thiagrand accomplishment! Here is a pal-pit and a clergyman preache3 in it.Your pulpit is the bank. Your pulpit isthe store. Your pulpit is the editorialchair. Your pulpit is the anvil. Yourpulpit is the house scaffolding. Yourpulpit is tho mechanic's shop. I maystand in this place and, throughcowardice or through self-seek-iug, may keep back the wordI ought to utter, while you,^ withfleeve rolled up and brow besweated.rith toil, may utter the word that willjar the foundation of heaven with theBhout of a great victory. Oh, that to-day this whole audience might feel thatthe Lord Almighty is putting uponthem the hands of ordination. Everyone, go forth and preach this Gospel.You have as much right to preach asI have, or as any man has. Onlyfind out the pulpit where God willhave you preach, and there preach.Hedley Vicars was'a wicked man in theEnglish army. The grace of God cameto him. He became an earnest and emi-nent Christian. They scoffed st him,and said: "You are a hypocrite; j'ouarc as bad as you ever were." Still hekept his faith in Christ, and after_aw_hilej. finding- that —they- couldnot turn him t aside by callinghim a hypocrite, they saia to him:"Oh, you are nothing but a fanatic."That did not disturb him. lie went onperforming his Christian duty until hehad formed all his troop into a Bibleclass, and the whole encampment wasshaken with the presence of God, SoHavelock went into the heathen templein India while the English army wasthere, and out a candle in the hand ofeach of the heathen gods that stoodaround in the heathen-temple, and bythe light of those candles, held up bythe idols, General Havelock preachedrighteousness, temperance and judg-ment to coine. And who will eay onearth that Havelock had not the rightto preach? *

1 think that before the sun of thiscentury shall set the last tyranny mayfall, and with a splendor of demonstra-tion that shall be the astonishment ofthe universe God will set forth thebrightness and pomp and glory andperpetuity of his eternal government.Out of the starry flaps and the embla-zoned insignia of this world, God willmake a path for his own triumph, and,returning from universal conquest, hewill sit down, the grandest, strongest,highest throne of earth his footstool.

Then shall all nation-.' son? ascendTo these, our Ruler, Father, Frleud,Till heaven's high arch resounds againWith 'Ponce on earth, Rood will to men.'I preach this sermon because I want

TALE OF LONDON BRIDGE.NO ONE KNOWS WHEN IT WAS

BUILT.

The Famous Structure of Which AllLondoners Are so Proud—Kn-

duwed With Lauds and 'Nung by Children.

Tho original building- of tho bridgecannot be discovered, writes WalterBesant in Harper's Mii_ru_irio. As longas we know anything of London thebridge was there. For a lon^ time itwas a bridye of timber, provided withii fortified gate—ono of the ^ates oftho eity. In tho year 1UU1, thechronicler relates that on the feast ofSt. Edmund the Archbishop, at thohour of six, a dreadful whirlwind fromtho southeast, coining from Africa—thus do authors in all ages seize upontho opportunity of parading theirknowledgo^-'*from Africa!1' all thatway!—blow upon the city and overthrew upward of 600 houses and sev-eral churches, greatly damaged thoTower, and tore away tho roof andpart of the wall of St. Mary lo ISow, inL'hoapsido. During tho same stormtho water in the Thames rose with suchrapidity and increased so violently thatLondon Bridge was entirely sweptaway.

Tho bridge was rebuilt. Two yearsafterward it narrowly escaped de-struction when a great part of the citywas destroyed by tiro. Forty yearslater it did meet this fa to in the stillgreater lire of 1135. I t was imme-diately rebuilt, but I suppose hurriedly,because thirty years later it had to beconstructed anew.

Among the clergy of London wasthen living ono Feter, chaplain of asmall church . in the Poultry—whereThomas a Becket was baptized—•called Coleehurch. This man wasabove all others skilled in tho craftand mystery of bridge-building. Hewas*-perhaps a meinber of the fraterni-ty called the Fontiflc (or bridge-build-ing) Brothers, who about this timebuilt the famous bridges at Avignon,Pont bt. Esprit, Cahors, Saintcs, andLa Kocholle. Ho proposed to build astone bridge over the river. In orderto raise money for this great enter-prise, offerings were asked and con-tributed by King, citizens, and eventhe country at large. The list of con-tributors was written out on a tablefor posterity, and preserved in theBridge Chapel.

This bridge which was to last forsix hundred and fifty years, took aslong to build as King Solomon's temple,namely, threo-and-thirty years. Beforeit was iinished the architect lay in hisgrave. When it was completed thebridge was 926 feet long and 40 feetwide—Stow says .'50 fuet: it stood t]0feet above higli water: it contained adrawbridge and 19 pointed:

COUNTRY GIRLS IN THE CITY, o

They Look for Social Life Which TheyCan He*t Enjoy ut Home.

"I have heard country girls talk ofcoming to the city for employment,"Hays u lady writer in the CincinnatiCommercial-Gazette, "and they havegiven as one reason that they wantedmore social life. Well, that is justwhat they will not got. Tho womanof business is not the woman, of leis-ure, and she has no time for suciety.She will liiid more social life in herown home, even if she be a worker1,than she could ever have in the city,and there is no lonesomeness more ab-solute than tho loneliness of a strangerin a crowd. Salaries are not largeenough to permit of such relaxationin the way of recreation, and after theday's work is over One is too tired togo in search of enjoyment.

"In the country home, in tlu^cdays,the daily papers and magazines come,so that one may keep in touch withthe world, even if she bo at one aideof the bustle find confusion of citylife. • The fashion articlo tella her howto dress her hair and make her gown;gives her the latest notion in smalltoilet details. Few towns are so smallthat they have no public library, whereall the new books come; and tho lec-ture and concert are not infrequentin visits. Kailways and telegraphshave brought the corners of the earthtogether, so that one is never far fromthe center of things. There is occu-pation, too, for the girls who stay athome, and particularly those who stayin the country. Do not throng to thecities in search of employment, foryou will be doomed to disappoint-m e n t "

with massive piers varying from 25 to j34 feet in solidity, raised upon strong jelm piles covered with thick planks, jThe bridge was curiously irregular:thero was no uniformity in tho breadthof the arches: they varied from 10 feetto 32 feet Over tho tenth and long-est pier was erected a chapel dedicatedto the youncrest saint in tho calendar.St. Thomas of Canterbury. Tho erec-tion of a chapel on a bridge was by nomeans uncommon. Everybody, forinstance, who has boon in.the south ofFranco remembers the chapel on thebrokon bridge at Avignon. Again, achapel waii built on tho bridge atDroitwich, in Choshire, and one on thobridge at Wakefield, in Yorkshire.Like the chapel at Avignon, that ofLondon Bridge contained an upper anda lower'chapel; tho latter was built inthe piers with stairs, making it accessi-ble from the river. The bridge gateat the southern end was fortified by adouble tower, and there was also atower at tho northern end. The wallor parapet of the bridge followed theline of the piers, so as to give at everypier additional room. The same ar-rangement used to bo seen on the oldbridge at Putney.

The citizens have always regardedLondon Bridge with peculiar pride andaffection. There was no other bridgelike it in the whole country, nor anywhich could compare with it forstrength or for size. I think, indeed,that there was not in the whole ofEurope any fridge that could comparewith it: for it was built not only over abroad river, but a tidal river, in whichtho flood arose and ebbed with greatvehemence twi<"} a day. Later onthey built houses on either side, but atthe first the way wsis. clear. Thobridge was endowed with broad lands;certain monks, called Brethren of St.

'Thomas oa the Bridge, were chargedwith the services of the chapel, andwith administering tho revenues fortfae maintenance of the fabric

Standing Dead, Tattooed and Kmbalmed,La au Uudertaker'a (Shop.

Coroner Walloy and his partner, Mr.Rollina, possess at thtjir place of busi-ness a deoldedly novel, woird andghastly advertisement, Bays tho Den-ver Republican. In the corner of theirback room atanda an ordinary lookingpine box, such a one as is used toplace around caskets in the rave. Itstands upon one end, and hiatus aroat the Bides. A lid is opened and astartling sight is revealed.

Standing erect, with hands folded infront and dressed in no raiment excepta similar garment to the one used bythe Yuma Indians (when thuy usedone), stands tho dead body of aSamoan tattooed warrior, who wasknown during life as Letunguifo, andwho died of consumption at bt.-Luke'shospital about tivo weeks ago. Thobody was taken to Coroner Wal-ley's on the day of the dean,and he had it embalmed. Theeyes are open and tho black hairand slight mustache bristle out withpeculiar fierceness. From the waistto tho kn^os it has boon tattooed withblue ink, so as to resemble a pair of "jknee pants, it ijcing one of tho pecul-iar customs of the country fromwhence he came to decorate the bodyof every male as soon as ho arrives- atman's estate.

From the peculiar history of thislonely Pacific islander, who it seems,risked his life and assisted in savingthe lives of many United States man-of-warsmen during the terrible cyclonethat swept over tho island iu March,1889, it would seem that the govern-ment alone owed a debt of gratitude tohim to at least put him in a propoi1

resting place. Letungaifo was one offive Samoans brought to this countryby R. A. Cunningham, Aug. 19, 1889,and was to have exhibited with themin this city, but owing to his health howas sent to tho hospital, and a fewweek.-; after the departure of his coun-trymen he died. In obtaining the.solive Samoans Mr. Cunningham hadgreat difficulty, as Malietoa, the kingof the islands, will not allow any ofhis subjects to leave, claiming it con-trary to their law and custom.

In tho terrible cyclone in March, '1889, when the American men-of-warTrenton and Vandalia wero wreckedin tho harbor of Pago-Pago, in theisland of Tutuila, the natives rescuedthe sailors by making a. human linoout to reach them, thus .enabling themto get to the ignore. On this occasionLetungaifo particularly distinguishedhimself for feat* of bravery in saving-tho lives of several of tho ("row.

It waft after this that Cunninghamattempted to get tho men away.

This was on Saturday, and tho nextday being Sunday all were released toattend church, as tho authorities didnot think anything would sail on thatday. Cunningham, however, learnedthe United States ship Ahimeiln, wagshortly to sail with tho sailors who.were wrecked during the hurricane,and hastily getting tho men together.who were anxious to come on board,they were secreted and thus came toAmerica, being the lirst of the race toleave their native country.

Japanese Sensitiveness.

From John La Faroe's Japanese let-ters now appearing iu the dnitury wequote the following: "TIMJ Japanesesensitiveness to the beauties of the out-side world is .something mueh moredelicate and complex, and contempla-tive, and at the saint; time more nat-ural, than ours has ever been. Outsideof Arcadia, I know of no other lamlwhose people hang verses on the trees,in Honor of their beauty; where fami-lies travel far before the dawn to seethe first light touch the new buds.Where else do the newspaper announcethe soring blossoms? Where elsewould be possible liie charmiug ab-surdity of the At my that W wastelling me of having seen in , cherry-blossom time some old gentleman,with capacious sake gourd iu Mindand IHLT roll of paper in his girdle,seat himself below the blixsom show-ers, and look and drink, ami drink andwrite verses, all by him>elf, with nogallery to help him? If ihere is con-vention iu a tradiliou half obligatory,and if we, Western lovers of the tree,do not quite like the Japanese re line-men t of growing the cherry merelyfor its flowers, vel how tlelieiously up-side-down from us, nuil how charmingis the love of nature at the foundationof the custom."

A Liberal Proposition.Who has not heard of that paragon

of family papers, the enterprising andpopular WKKKLY DETROIT FI:EE PIIKSS?

For a generation its name has been ahousehold word, and it has become asynonm for all that is excellent, pureand elevating in journalism. It isdelightfully entertaining: without re-sort to cheap sensationalism, instruc-tive without being pro>y or pedantic.Combining the literary qualities of theexpensive magazine with the bright,breezy characteristics of the news-paper, it leaves nothing to be desiredby the average j-eader. It is lookedupon as a welcome visitor br everyfamily who reads it, while thousandsregard it as indispensable and wouldon no account go without it. An enor-mous circulation of 1 —.">,<M>0 copies perweek attests its wonderful popularity.-Ilecogtrbri7Tj^~ttre trtctTThAt there arethose who are mfnnnlnu1 with its.stir.passing merits as a home paper, thepublishers offer to send Tin: r'iM-:i-:PUKSS to them for the balance of theyear (tive months) for only 30 cents aclub iif four lor 91.00 or a club of tenfor ?2.00: All our reader* should sub-scribe at once.
