‘‘Look, girls, there they go Period one
o f a gay group. “Aren’t they perfectly
lovely?’’
“Indeed they are!”
‘ Little black beauties!”
“ Oh for a drive behind them !”
Tw o beautiful black ponies driven
by an aristocratic looking young man
went dashing by, and four o f the group
o f girls commented as above; the fifth,
however, maintained a dignified silence.
“N ot a word from A ggie,” said one,
saucily. “I suppose she has already
driven behind them, or else she means
to soon.”
“ Say have you met B oyce Lester,
A g g ie?
D o com e down from your
pedestal and speak once to ns poor
ordinary mortals,” said another, laugh­
ingly, and at length Miss A ggie St..
Paul condescended to speak,
“ I met Mr. Lester once, this very
morning, at Lizzie Lee’s, where we
both happened to call together, that is,
I found him there. 2Jo, I have not yet
driven
behind those magnificent
horses.”
“ ‘N ot yet,’ ” repeated the first saucy
speaker.
“ O f course she means to do
so right away, that’s plain.”
A toss of the haughty head was all
the reply Miss St. Paul returned,
“ Oh, girls, let A ggie alone, do! A n y
one listening to ns would think we
were setting our caps for Boyce Lester,
and I ’m sure it’s not so,” said Elsie
Saunders. “ W ill you come my way,
Janie ? I ’ m going to Mr. Lee’s to in­
vite Lizzie to my birthday picnic, and
I will tell her to ask this much to he
envied Mr. Lester; I suppose that is
what is expected of.me, as he is Lizzie’s
cousin and a stranger in the place.”
Janie M oore and the merry young
speaker took leave o f the others to­
gether, and soon there was no one left
o f the chattering group but the haughty
little lady whose home was in the
pretty house standing near.
“ I do mean to drive after those ponies
soon,” was her half whispered acknowl­
edgement, as she turned to go in after
watching the last o f her departed guests
out o f sight. “ I stole a march on them
all this morning, and I ’ll show them,
at the picnic to-morrow, that it is very
easy to get an invitation to sit behind
those ponies, and mayt-e—”
Whatever the probability M iss St.
Paul ct gitated might be )t did not ap­
pear, but from her determined manner
it bade fair to become a possibility
very soon.
A little later, Janie and Elsie called
on their homeward walk to report their
success to A ggie St. Paul. Elsie was
triumphant.
‘ H e was still at Lizzie’s. “ H e was
introduced to us, and I gave him the
invitation in person. H e w ill be sure
to come. Get on your most captivat­
ing smiles, Aggie, so as to get a drive
behind those lovely horses just as soon
as possible,” she chattered on.
“ O f course it would never do for you
to be serious fo r five minutes, Elsie; as
i f 1 cared for B oy Lester, or his horses,”
was A ggie’s reply. Then the girls once
more separated, each to prepare fo r the
day in the woods which would cele­
brate the anniversary o f Elsie Saunders’
birthday.
I t dawned in perfect splendor, and
though the anticipated pleasure was
only the much berated festivity o f a
picnic, many young hearts were genu­
inely happy in the anticipation. For
everybody knew that the ride to W illis’
grove was in every requisite perfect,
granted the extremely favorable weath­
er which now ruled the elements con­
tinued, and that the groye itself was a
most charming resort.
There .were swings, croquet fields
and a tennis court; and the waters o f a
beautiful lake reached to the edge of
the well-kept grounds where several
gaylv painted boats stood always ready
for the pleasure o f those who loved, the
water.
W ell qualified persons w ere sent on
with full instructions to prepare re­
freshments in a unique and attracti ve
style, and altogether the affair vy-as to
be—if indeed the term picnic were at
all applicable— one o f the ideal sort.
A nd so it proved. F or some time all
seemed to be happy; there were none
who appeared to feel bored or in the
w ay; there was a dearth o f bugs and
caterpillars, and the sky was “ as blue
as blue could be.”
Early in the day the five girls in­
troduced at the beginning o f this
sketch, came by chance together near
the water. One other was with them,
a sweet-faced girl, who would have
been styled plain by aimost any casual*
observer, though all who were well ac­
quainted with her recognized her claim
to the best of all beauty.
A s usual, the merry five were in a
bantering mood.
“I t ’s a shame for so many o f us to be
crammed into that big wagon, when
those two delightful ponies have only
one young gentleman to carry,” began
Elsie Saunders.
“ O f course he means to take some
one home; the mystery is who w ill be
the fortunate one,” supplemented Janie
Moore.
“ Aggie St. Paul, o f course,” said Bell
Gray, with a half envious lo o k toward
dark-eyed Aggie.
“ So he has only to choose between
you, eh, girls?” querried SusieBeed,the:
plain, quiet g irl before spoken of, with
a mischievous smile,
' “ B ut you know, Susie, it would really
be quite an honor to be chosen by
Boyce Lester; yes, even fo r A ggie St.
Paul!” declared little Jennie Bay, so
earnestly that the girls all laughed in
chorus, while they blushed at Susie’s
rallying speech.
'
W hile the blushes and laughter still
Her missile was well aimed, and ut­
tering a cry, the animal limped away.
“A ggie St. Paul! H ow could you do
that? H ow -d a re you?” cried Susie
Beed, with flashing eyes and fiery
cheeks.
She ran to the table, and snatching a
piece o f cake, went in search of the
dog, whose whining she heard among
some willows near the water not far
away.
B ut never was good Samaritan more
Completely surprised than was .Susie
Beed when she cam e suddenly upon
the object o f her search, held tenderly
in the arms o f Boyce Lester. H e saw’
the pitiful light in Susie’s brown eyes
and the piece o f cake in her hand, and
could easily have understood the situ­
ation even i f he bad not witnessed the
scene ju st described.
. “ Thank you, Miss Beed,” he said,
with never a smile; indeed, he did not
feel like laughing.
“ The dog is a
favorite o f mine, and having run so
far in search of me, is doubtless in
need o f something to eat.”
He put the dog, a medium sized
pointer, down as he spoke, and he
ceased his whining and took the cake
from Susie’s hand, eating it greed ilj’,
but with a “ thank you” in the speak­
ing eyes Which Susie easily interpreted.
“Is his leg badly hurt, Mr. Lester? I
am sure Aggie did not mean to wound
h im ”
“ There is quite a jagged cut, hut it
will soon heal,” replied the young man.
H e bad no words o f exoneration for
A ggie St. Paul, for he had seen the act
with its accompanying manner and tone
o f voice, and knew very well that the
young lady had meant to hurt the in­
offensive animal.
“ I think I will carry Don to my
wagon, give him food and water and
leave him there till i go home, if you
w ill excuse me a moment, Miss Beed;
and then if you w ill be so good as to
favor me with your company, I will
row you out on that beautiful little
lake.”
Susie signified her willingness, gave
the dog a sympathetic good-by pat,then
turned away to join the group o f girls
she had left.
They were somewhat excited, having
seen Boyce Lester walk out from the
cluster o f willows, followed by the
limping dog, and asked not a few ques­
tions, which Susie amwered collective­
ly“It was lioyce Lester’ s favorite dog;
hefollow ed him, having broken loose,
I imagine. H e is not very badly hurt,
Aggie, hut really, I do not understand
how you came to throw that stone; the
dog was only tryiDg to find his master.”
“ W ell, he apparently found him, and
so did you !” snapped Aggie, fo r ODce
descending from the height o f dignity
which she usually mounted and main­

“ I have promised to sail with him,
girls,” continued Susie, ignoring .the
spite in A ggie’s voiceIndeed, she was too simple hearted
and innocent to see that having gained
favor with rich, handsome Boyce Les­
ter she was losing proportionately with
some o f her girl friends, more especial­
ly A ggie St. Paul,
But Boyce soon returned, smiling
and polite, greeting A ggie and the
others with gay words, haying appar­

think, often, with regret for the pain
lie knew he was suffering.
A ll, Aggie, that was an unlucky
stroke o f yours J W ould that all such
needless acts o! cruelty might be as
swiftly and justly avenged! The day
was spoiled for A ggie St. Paul, and not
only that day bnt many others. She
could hardly believe her eyes when she
saw plain Susie Beed walk away with
the prize she had intended to capture
easily herself.
•‘And all because o f that old dog!”
she muttered under her breath as she
watched the young pair flit away over
the glassy lake. “ I f it were any one
but Susie I should think she had man­
aged the matter, and knew whose dog
it was, and that Boyce was there in the
willows.”
Much to Susie’s surprise Boyce re-
“ Weli, then, not till I saw how good
you were to that poor doggie; I think
it must have begun just a little about
then.”

Miss St. Paul, hut the incident at the
picnic in which poor Don figured so
painfully cured that feeling very effect­

she would be likely to rule over the

when it was too late that we clashed

“So i t was the very same sentiment
that attracted us toward each other—
our love for dumb, helpless creatures.”
“I believe it was, dear, and I believe,
too, that it makes a very good foun­
dation for a stronger love,” answered
the doctor, clasping the hand of bis
young w ife as it lay on the head of
Don, who looked on understandiugly.

the remainder o f the day, and when
preparations were being made for de­
parture, he said,—
“ It you do not m 'nd Don lying at
our feet, Miss Susie, I shall be only too
happy to have you accept a seat in my
carriage for the homeward drive.
“ Oh, I do not mind,” answered Susie,
quickly, and several o f the girls smiled
at her prom pt acceptance, pretending
to tliink’she was eager to receive Boyce
Lester’s attentions, while in their
hearts they all knew that her quick re­
sponse was prompted by the desire to
assure him that his offer was worthy
of acceptance, and that the presence of
his injured pet was not, by her, cOn
sidered offensive.
The black ponies 'started off in fine
style, and Susie, looking down at the
glossy head o f Don at her feet, felt only
pity and . admiration for the poor,
wounded animal, and bestowed many
a gentle caress upon him during the
drive, which, was as delightful to her
as it was rare
The dark, spiteful look which Aggie
St. Paul had given her as She was
driven away had not hurt her, for she
had not seen it.
Y et, remembering
suddenly the laughing conversation
which had been held among the group
o f girls of whom she had been one,just
before the episode which had thrown
herself and Itoyce together, Susie
Deed’s plump cheeks flushed a brilliant
scarlet-, and she almost laughed aloud
at the thought that she, of all otheis,
should be in the very pleasant position
she now occupied.

A N ew Asbestos Mine.
The wonderful asbestos mine found
near Hamilton has been uncovered in
a' ledge for a distance o f seventy-five
feet, and at the cropping, or as far as
the discoverers have been able to go
in this brief time, says the Olympia
Tribune, the ledge proved to he eight
feet in width. The rock taken from
the ledge after the surface crusting
was removed is pure asbestos ore, as
white as chalk and fine as silk, the
feathery fibers being a,s long as the
pieces o f rock from which they are
pulled, in some cases reaching the en-'
tire length of eighteen inches. From
the remarkable progress made, it is
estimated that one month spent in de­
velopment would so open the easily ac­
cessible store as to enable the valuable
contents to he removed in almost any
quantity.
The mine is being opened
at an altitude o f about 2,000 feet. A s­
bestos is found in Switzerland, Scot­
land, Virginia, Vermont, and on Staten
Island, off the coast o f Hew Jer ey.
The finest quality discovered up to this
time is in Italy. I t Is used extensive­
ly in the manufacture o f fireproof roof­
ing, flooring, clothing, hose, steam
packing, lamp wricking, safe filling,and
as a non conducting envelope for steam

M aple Sugar.
In a paper read before the American
Association on “The Indian Origin of
Maple Sugar,” by Mr. H enry W. Henshaw, o f Washington, the point was as
to "Whether the Indians learned to make
o f the whites, or vice verm. The argu­
ment drawn from the maple tree festi­
vals and linguistic evidence showed
the red men were in no way indebted
to the whites lor sugar, no more than
for the cultivation o f corn, the pump­
kin, bean, and tobacco. Their simple
process was aboriginal, resulting from
their own observation and inventive
powers. They collect the sap in birchbark vessels. These bold in some cases
a hundred gallons.
They take advan­
tage o f cold April nights to freeze the
sap, and in the morning throw out the
ice.
They evaporate it by throwing
hot stones into the reservoirs o f sap.
The sugar is eaten mixed with corn.
Sometimes the pure sugar is their only
diet for a month. They boil yenison
and rabbits in the hot sap as they
evaporate it. They also make sugar
from the silver maple and box elder.
That the Indians made sugar from
times unknown is proved by their
language, their festivals, and their tra­
ditions. Several authors o f early times,
telling o f their visits to the Indians,
mention maple sugar, and one o f them,
in 1*156', describes the Indians’ mode of
preparing it. The gathering o f sap and
making o f sugar formed one o f their
annual religious ceremonies.
Laziness a Foe to Original ity .
W e do not know who said it, hut it
is a fa ct well stated, and we regret not
giving the writer proper credit. The
greater enemy to individualism is laziuess, and those who know anything o f
human fraiities will, I am sure, hear
me out when I.say that “ mental” lazi­
ness is far more common and. far more
difficult to overcome than the body. It
Is so much easier to accept dogmatic
teaching, and to shift the responsibility
o f our views, on to others rather than
to concentrate our thoughts and work
out the lessons o f our own observa­
tions. I t is more pleasant to butterfly
from theory to theory than to seek
truth with patient tenacity; why
trouble ourselves to learn self-reliance,
when natural Indolence protests
against the sacrifice?
It is easier to Imitate th -n to origi­
nate; plagiarism and mimicry are such
prominent features in our lives, their
presence might almost be quoted as an
argument in favor o f our evolution in
past ages from simian ancestry. H ow
plausible are the excuses we make for
our want o f this individualism! W e
are so dreadfully afraid . o f being
thought bumptious, we are so delight­
fully humble; we really do not wish
to intrude our opinion, and yet all the
brightest lights o f our profession have
been men of strong individualism.

A F ire at Sen.
Men despised by their fellows as
worthless, have sometimes shown In
limes o f emergency the attributes o f
greatness; and those from whom there
has been reason to expect high quali­
ties, often fail to exhibit them when a
great crisis comes. A writer thus de­
scribes the conduct of men In a panic:
“Suddenly the saloon door is flung
wide open,” he writes, and a lady rush­
ed iD, and cried in a faiut agonized
voice:
“ ‘The ship is on fire.’
“ Then she fell on the'sofa in a dead
faint.
“ The smoke had already reached us.
The staircase was full o f it and the
whole place was lit with a dull red
glare—the glare o f burning coal. In
an instant every one was on deck and
the scene of disorder was indescriable,
“ One man— a gaunt looking general
who in his fright had lost his wits,
kept bawling out; ‘ a special messenger
must immediately be dispatched to the
Emperor.
W e dispatched a special
messenger to him when the military
colonies revolted; and. the lives of
several important persons were saved
in consequence; I myself was there in
person.’
“Another man who had In his flight
up stairs grasped an umbrella,—he cer­
tainly did not know why, and suddenly
rushed at a very ugly little oil painting
which was among the luggage fastened
to an easel. It was a portrait. With

live holes in the head o f the portrait
where had been the eyes, nose and
mouth, exclaiming, ‘What’s the use of
tins picture now ?’
A huge fat man, looking like a Ger­
man brewer, wept floods of tears and
kept calling out;
“ Captain! Captain! Captain!’ Finally
that officer grasped him by the coat
collar and shouted at him :
“ ‘Well, I’m the captain, what do you
want with m e?’
“But the fat passenger only sang his
monotonous chant the louder.
“The captain saved our lives by alter­
ing our course, and by confining the
fire, so that there was no draft, and
also by ordering the sailors to draw
their cutlasses and cut dow n any one
who should seize either o f the life­
boats.
It was curious to notice the involun­
tary feeling o f respect inspired by the
stern impassive sailors [Danes they
were] as they stood there with drawn
swords in the red glare of the firelight.”
The Famous Death V a lley in Color­
ado to B e E xplored.
From The Telegram we learn that
Secretary of Agriculture Busk has
been sometime engaged in organizing
an expedition to. explore the famous
Death Yralley in Colorado. This region
is a veritable term incognita. The
heat there is so intense that dead an­
imals do not decompose. W ater in
the valley is unknown, and the expedi­
tion w ill ©nrxy water and food for
mules and men. It is a question
whether the animals will he able to
survive the expedition. Tw o o f the
chief botanists o f the department are
at present working their way into the
valley from Southern hi evada, while
another expedition is on the march
from Southern California. The two
expeditions are expected to meet, if
nothing goes wrong with them, at a
point previously decided upon in the
valley. Professor Merriam "will leave
In a few days to take charge o f the
expedition.
There is reason to believe that there
are rich gold and silver mines m the
region named. A story is told o f an ad­
venturous miner who some years ago
penetrated into the valley and found
the skeleton o f a miner. A wooden
pail was lying near it, and in it a
chunk of gold o f great value. On his
return to California he showed his find
to a group o f miners.
Their cupidity
was so excited that, other means fail­
ing they tortured him to make him
confess where he had found the gold,
believing that he had discovered a
gold mine, the location o f which he
would n ot reveal.
The scientific men with the expedi­
tion will map the country and procure
the specimens o f such animals and in­
sects there, if any do exist. Secretary
Bush regards the expedition as o f
great importance.

Convention.
B errien Centre , Jan. io, isoju
Proceedings o f a special Conventioh
o f the Berrien township Sunday school
association, held at Berrien Centre
Lutheran church, Jan. 1 0 ,1S91:
Opening song, “ A ll hail the power
o f Jesus name” . Prayer by L .W .R u g gles, o f Hagar.
The address or welcome, by Superin­
tendent David Crall, made everybody
feel at home and free to participate in
the exercises, and thrice welcome to
the hospitalities o f their homes. Pres­
ident N . N im s, in response, referred to
angelic visits bringing words o f peace
and good-will to men, and the opening
o f the gates o f the new Jerusalem by
Jesus, who stands to welcome his
children there*
A fter a song o f welcome, N o. tf, and
prayer by R ev. B . W illis, L . W . Bug­
gies addressed the Sunday school work­
ers on their opportunities o f bringing
children to the beautiful gates o f the
city o f Zion.
R ev. F . W . Pears, on his review talk
on lessons 4 ,5 and 0, said: A ll great
reftrm movements are fought out
alone. W hile the disciples slept, Jesus
agonized in the garden o f Gethsetnane
alone. Nearly all our conflicts in life
are fought out alone. Many, today,
like Pilate, wish to get rid o f Christ.
Rev. W in. Roe, on lessons 1, 2 and 3,
said: God bears a long time in making
preparation for the introduction o f
H is kingdom. Jesus came at the b cit
possible time.
Had H e come sooner,
men would not have been prepared fbr
Ins advent.
The testimony o f the
prophets and the fulfillments o f the
prophesies prepared the people for His
reception. The Lord’s supper, a me­
mento o f bis sufferings, and to ns a
reminder o f our forgetfulness. The
washing of the disciples' feet a lesson
o f humanity.
Miss E ttie Strong favored the Con­
vention with an excellent declamation
on “ Giving to the poor to be seen o f
men.”
Miss Josie Miller read a paper on
the subject Of ‘Thinking”, in which
she emphasized the leading thought:
“ That great achievements are not ac­
cidental, but result from deep think­
ing.”
A well-written essay entitled, “ The
Political Bridge” was read by Miss
Ella Shorf, and on motion, was refer­
red to committee on resolutions for
publication.
A n excellent essay was prepared
w ith much care, and read by Miss
Sadie Jenkins, showing the great evils
o f impure reading and evil associa­
tionsA copy for publication was
asked by the Convention.
The Misses Lora Keigley, Grace
Ullrey, Maggie Terry and May Ten
Broeck gave deeply interesting decla­
mations on the subjects, “ Jesus’ love
for children” ; “A letter to Jesus” ;
“ The stocking o f life” ; “ Getting an ed­
ucation under difficulties”. Subjects
chosen by themselves and well ren
clerecl.
.
Masters Ezra Willis, Murle J. Fisher
and Edgar Sweeney, each favored the
audience with brief but instructive
recitations.
The Misses Mira Clark and Genie
Buckley volunteered their services in
the rendition o f “ The rising tide” and
“Found dead,” In a manner so solemn
and impressive as" to hold the audience
in rapt attention.
Mr. Jacob Barnhart gave some ex­
cellent suggestions in tbe consideration
on the question, “H ow to keep children
in the Sunday school.” H e thought
parents should attend the school andtry to make it attractive. The guilded
saloon does this and It draws, too.
Miss L eva MaGinnis prepared and
read a paper entitled “ The death and
burial o f Moses,” which fo r deep bibical research and deductions is seldom
excelled.
Miss Nina Grail’s declamation, enti­
tled, “Rum selling, the country’s
scourge, and the remedy” , was render­
ed in her usual pleasing manner, and
elicited considerable discussion as to
the best means o f securing the prohi­
bition o f the liquor trafiic.
Miss Adah Murphy’s select reading
was well selected, well read, and well
receivedand thoughtfully considered by
the audience. The subject was “ Reso­
lutions fo r the new year”.
The declamations by the Misses
A da Becker
and Ltnnle Steiner
showed earnest endeavor and careful
preparation to entertain and please,
and were received with applause.
Master Floyd Bowerman’s “Parable
for boys” was read with good effect,
showing the results of obedience and
disobedience.
Mr. C. B. Groat read an excellent
paper on the “ A rt o f questioning”,
which was replete with good prac­
ticable hints fo r Sunday school teach­
ers and workers.
Mr. W . E. Parker volunteered to
read an article on the “ Tobacco habit”,
which was followed by the pros and
eons In a spirited discussion, and an
able address by Mr, A lm on Keighley,
who spoke from experience as to the
results, and against the habit.
Mr.Erastus Murphy in “ Closing re­
marks” summed up the proceedings of
the Convention in th e form o f a string
o f “ Central thoughts” extracted from
the renditions, to stand as a monument
or the Convention, which was prononneed the best ever held by the asso­
ciation.
The song service, the leading and
most attractive feature o f the Con­
vention, was excellent, thoughtful, and
was conducted by the musical director
o f the township.
On motion o f Mr. C. B. Groat, a vote
of thanks was tendered the officers'for
faithful service, and the citizens o f
Berrien Centre fo r entertainment.
A fte r the closing song, “ God be with
us till w e meet again”, the Convention
adjourned subject to call o f the Execu­
tive Committee.

A b o u t 0:30 o’clock last evening as
Miss Amanda, daughter o f Joseph
Swartz, residing on the old Jewett
farm west o f the city, was driving
home, and half way across the iron
bridge, and While Rey, R. H . F. Gairdner was crossing tbe bridge, the minis­
ter’s big dog walked out on roadway to
bridge, the horse was frightened, turn­
ed around short and quick, tipped the
buggy partly over and Miss Swartz
fell out.
The horse then whirled
around and the wheels o f buggy passed
over Miss Swartz, who was so badly
injured that she could hardly stand
alone, but no bones were broken, and
she was only severely bruised all over.
— N iles Star, Tuesday.
I n d i c t e d -liquor dealers o f this city
paid in all yesterday the sum o f §155
at Berrien Springs.
The highest for
one was §90, then three paid §80 each,
one §75 and another 850.
One man
who was accused o f being an. informer
was forcibly ejected from a place last
evening, and harsh words were ex­
changed by several. I t was hearsay
that other informers would be harshly
dealt with at the proper time. It is
not very pleasant to the dealers who
have to pay §500 license every year, to
give up a nice sum o f money extra, all
because they violated the law unknow­
ingly, beer being obtained by young
men who ate supposed to be o f age,
because they haye beards and look
much older. ’ The liquor dealers in­
dicted say they have tried to obey the
law to the letter, and it is a well-known
fact that they close their places
promptly and try to live up to the law.

Queer about that, too.

She was fair—and my passion began!

But when from afar I detected catarrh,
No beauty m y passion could move!
In despair she sought doctors in vain,
Till she learned of “ Humanity’s boon” !
Now her breath is as sweet as the dew
Which falls npon roses in Juno.

And I hiss her sweet lips o’ er and o'er,

For the jov that he brought to out door.
There is h o disease more trying to

effort to clear the throat and nose, the
foul breath, all the features o f the dis­

with an attack o f la grippe, but had so

class last week. Saturday he suffered
a relaps®, resulting in his death within
a few hours. Mr. Kelsey was a youDg
man o f more than ordinarily bright
prospects for the future, and left home
in the prime o f robust health. H e was
twenty-one years o f age. H is parents
were visiting in California, and are exx
pected home to-day. The remains were
returned to their home Monday and

Charley ' L ong went rabbit h tinting
a few days since, put the ferret into a
hole to drive the ‘rabbit out, and while
he watched at the hole for the rabbit,
left his shot gun standing against a
sapling close by. H e failed to catch
the rabbit, and the dog, in starting
after it, knocked the gun down. The
charge went close enough to Charley’s
right ear to shave the hair from that
side o f his head and just cut through
the skin at the corner o f his eye. He
didn’t get the rabbit.

There were only five assessments in
the Knights o f the Maccabees last year,
so a man rated at One dollar had to
pay five dollars fo r §1000 insurance,
outside o f the Tent dues and per capita
tax. Cutler Tent started out last May
with 39 charter members and now has
52, among them some o f the best citi­
zens o f Buchanan. The order has had
only thirty six assessments in the past
ten years and now has the largest bene­
ficiary order in Michigan, numbering
20,000. W m . L . W ilson, Spec. Dep. Gt.
Com., and general organizer for Michi­
gan, was present last evening at the
Tent’s meeting and installed the offi­
cers fo r this year.
A case o f highway robbery is re­
ported from Galien. The story is that
Friday, Frank Curtis saw Mrs. Babcock,
who lives in the neighborhood o f H ill’s
Corners, have some money, placed
him self in her road to her home and
when she came along demanded her
money or her life, securing about §8,
which he took to Galien and spent fo r
a suit o f clothes. Mrs. B. gave the
alarm, Curtis was followed, captured,
made to trade his clothes for the money,
return it, and was landed in jail, with
a chance to explain his actions to the
circuit court. I t is a pretty uncertain
business to adopt that means o f ob­
taining money.
E lder M. T . Saort will hold meet­
ings in the Broceus school house, a
mile and a half north o f west o f Bu­
chanan, each remaining evening o f
this week. He closed a ten day’s meet­
ing at the W agner school house, last
Sunday afternoon. Elder W illard J.
Smith, o f Galien, has been holding
similar services at Glendora. They
changed pulpits, Sunday at 2:80 p. m.,
but Mr. Smith retarned to the station,
aud closed services .in the evening.
Elder Short and Smith will commence
a series o f meetings, in R oe’s hall, Sun­
day, Jan. 25,1891, Services at 10:30 a.
m., 3 p. m. and 7 i n the evening. A lso
each evening o f n ext week, and three
times on Sunday, Feb, 1. This church
has a local organization at our neigh­
boring town, Galien, with between one
and tw o hundred members.
T h e little five-year-old son o f Mr.

follow ing from the Chicago Herald:
F o r the second time this fall Irving
Jay Steininger, the Hoosier boy Orator,
appeared before an audience o f several
thousand people this evening. H e made
an hour’s speech upon “ The Inequali­
ties o f the People,” which was full o f
pointed remarks and an abundance o f
sound sense, the audience cheering and
applauding the eloquent and witty lit­
tle fellow.
H e is about the height o f an ordinary
chair, and his appearance upon the
large stage all alone walking to and
fro and making every movement and
intonation a copy o f an experienced
public speaker, was a novel sight.
H e is traveling under the manage­
ment o f his father and usually appears
under the auspices o f a church or simi­

King Alexander is now l i years, o f
age, and is rapidly developing fcoth
pliysically and intellectually. H e is
only allowed, to receive sncli visitors as
are agreeable to the regents, as the fol­
lowing instance will show: The Metro­
politan Michael attempted lately to intrade on the royal presence without hav­
ing announced his intention t o the re­
gents. The consequence was that he
was not received, and since that time he
has not appeared at the kouak. King
Alexander w ill come of age on Attg. 8,
1894. He is now going through a course
of-military studies, and his present tutor
is Col. Miskovie. The Mug is generally
present at the ordinary military drills,
when he is placed in command of a com­
pany. He is also in the habit of driving
ont to the park o f Castle Toptshider,
and on these drives he not infrequently
passes his mother’s carnage retum ingto
town.
The queen drives herself. Her son, in
the dress of a colonel, salutes her in mili­
tary fashion, and the queen in recogni­
tion waves her hand. A little while
ago, when King Milan was driving with
his son, the two monarehs chanced to
pass the queen, but on perceiving bis exmajesty she turned away her head, and
the salute was not returned. King
Alexander lain constant correspondence
with his father; and writes either m
Servian or French. These letters are
not altogether without political signifi­
cance. Queen Nathalie receives a large
number of visitors, and; her salons are
the resort o f politicians o f all shades and
parties. Occasionally she is present at
the theatre, where she occupies the court
box; but tins only happens when it is
known that King Alexander will not at­
tend the play.—Gatignani’s Messenger.

Had yon gone into any o f the offices of
presidents o f great transportation com­
panies recently yon could not help notic­
ing the pretty square cards, beautifully
lithographed, which littered the desks o f
the presidents and the immediate sub­
ordinate officers. The presidents o f aU
the railroads, the presidents o f all the
express companies and o f great insur­
ance companies, and all other men influ­
ential in tho business world, all had a
sachelfnl o f these prettily engraved
cards. They were the annual passes
which entitle them to travel on every
road in the country gratis. These passes
came from all parts o f the country,, and
the filling ont o f the list takes the time
o f one clerk, one month before theheginmnar o f every year.
Gf course the presidents o£ the rail­
roads coming into isew kork ana the
presidents of the express companies here
have to reciprocate, and they have also
sent out a wagon load or these annual
free passes: It should he added tnat the
"Western Union issues quite as many.
The railroad passes permit free travel,
the express nasses the sending of free
packages, and the telegraph passes nerm it the sending o f free messages, no
matter where the holder may ha m the
United States. The designs on the passes
are sometimes verv pretty, and the col­
lection this year, as seen m President
Thomas O. Platt s office the other day.
was a curiously heanuiul one o f the
lithographic art. The most unique and
expressive is a card sent out b y Sir. John
Hoey. o f the Adams Express company.

There is such a thing as carrying econ­

actually occurring, w o will not say
where. Three years ago a certain per­
son purchased as a Christmas gift for
his 2-year-old daughter a little chair,
painted red. -In 1SS9 he had the chair
painted blue and gave it to her as a
brand new Christmas gift. Last year

it off aeam as a Christmas safe on Ms in­

household such an incident would be
pathetic. But this rather is hv no means

An Italian has just arrived in London
with an “ instantaneous, self expanding,
life saving belt,” by which he expects to
enrich himself from the pockets o f the
people who are nervous at sea. It has
already been adopted by the principal
steamship companies of Italy. The
unique feature of this new life saving
belt is that it may be worn around the
body while promenading about the decks
during the day, and is not even taken
off in bed. It weighs about twice as
much as one o f the ordinary canvas or
leather belts sold for general use.
In its finished state it is about the last
thing in the world that a prudent man
would place confidence in if he was to
attempt to jump for his life from the
deck o f a sinking vessel into the sea.
But the moment the belt touches the
water two chemical substances contained
in it are instantly united, and it begins
to inflate with gas What these sub­
stances are is the inventor’s secret. He
claims that one belt will keep the most
heavily clothed person afloat for fortyeight hours. For ladies the belts are
made of silk, for men o f canvas.—Bos­

Unique Pipe Laying.

months in the work of extending the
twenty-four inch in-taka pipe from West
Superior to Lake Superior for water.
The entire distance from the pump sta­

of water in Lake Superior, is 855 feet,
and 2,930 feet outside of Miunesota
Point. The entire 2,930 feet of lake
pipe was jointed above the surface of
the water anil hung suspended in spaced
slings. The object was to cut the slings
and allow the entire section of more
than half a mile to drop into the water.

feat for several days, bnt the approach

job was done hurriedly, but with distin­
guished success. When everything was

a thief was certainly an ingenious one,
but’ now that the light fingered fra­
ternity know of the trap they will prob­
ably be on their guard in future. A t one
o f the large dress warehouses in the
Faubourg St. Germain there had been,
it appears, for several weeks past a
number of "robberies committed, and
though tho Strictest watch was kept’by
tho inspectors it had been impossible to
discover tbo thief. In the majority of
cases the unknown shoplifter took away
with him elegant and costly mantles ex­
posed for sale on dummies in the shop,
choosing his time for operating so well
that his identity remained a mystery. •
The police were at length appealed to,
and in order to catch the rogue one or
two agents were, at the suggestion o f a
member of the force, ordered to substi­
tute themselves for the dummies—or
rather, to hide themselves inside their
wirework frames. It was not long be­
fore the plan succeeded. A day or two
since, just as a. richly trimmed mantle
was being cleverly removed from .the
shoulders of a dummy, the individual
engaged in the act felt himself grasped
tightly by a pair o f strong arms, and
held a prisoner. The shoplifter’s fright
at finding the dummy to be, so to say,
inhabited, was so great that it deprived
him of speech and action, and he made
no attempt to escape from the constable’s
grip or to explain away his conduct.
He is now lodged in prison, and on any

was startled by seeing a large and strange
looking object approaching' the landwash, The little fellow raced home,
stating that somettengcame after him
out of- the water. This was suffioient to
attract older persons to the beach, where
they found a huge squid or cuttlefish
high and dry. Its extreme length was
thirty-two feet, the tentacles alone meas­
uring twenty-one feet. The body was
much larger than that of an ordinary
horse, and the pelt three inches in tMckness. It was cut up before being re­
moved. W e believe that tMs is the

son to Monmouth streets. There was no
tremble or jar, or click at the rail joints.
Indeed, the sound did not come from the
rails, bnt from tbo steel girders and pil­
lars, and continued until the locomotive
had struck the solid ground six blocks
above. Tlie sound Is an octave above
the deep bass of Niagara falls.
With a long vestibule train tlie effect
will be startling. I venture to predict
that the dwellers along the line will not
complain of the noise of the passing
trains, for, though somewhat loud, it is
yet harmoniously innsieal. Hence it
will not disturb anybody.—Philadelphia

It is not a Violation, of the bylaws and
constitution to say that the pumpkin pie
that Mrs. John Robinson fetched to us
was a whale, A big sweet pumpkin
pie on Christmas day is like meeting an
old Pennsylvanian away out in Califor­
nia after you haven’t seen a than in two
years that knows there is sncli a place.
A fat pumpkin pie is a holiday treat any
day, and a good one is deserving of all
the credit that can he given it. And the
women who pumpkin pies make grow
where none grew before are benefactors
to the race.—Brockwayville (Pa.) Record.

A Kansas newspaper says: “ A Wash­
ington county man played a very sharp
trick upon a neighbor last week. He
stole a whole herd o f cattle, 150 head,
sold them, pocketed the money and then
committed suicide. His victim has been
unable to tMnk of any way of getting
even, and is very much disgusted.”

A mammoth elm tree, set out by Na­
thaniel Bassett, in Lee, in 1782, was cut
down yesterday. A fence post was
found mortised into it, and the number
of rings from the outside of the trunk
into the post showed that it had been
imbedded therein for fifty years.—Newburyport News.
The Japanese census shows that the
population a year ago was 40,072,020—
20,245,336 males and 19,825.684 females,

Rev. Dr. Edward A . Foggs, the ven­

T h e O m n ip oten ce o f th e S p oils System .
From the second election of Jackson,
in 1832, down to the present time the
doctrine that “ public office is a party
prize” has been the controling factor
in tlie administration o f the national
government. The limited and imper­
fectly executed civil service act, so far
as its effect on the great body of the
common people is concerned, consti­
tutes no exception. Every boy o f 15
who hurrahed because his father voted
for Jackson in •1832 had, if alive at
the election in 1888, passed the age of
threescore and ten. Every voter who
east a ballot in 1832 and lived to east
one in 1888 was then 77 or more years
old. Even among this little band of
aged men the administration of govern­
ment upon any other plan was but a
dim reminiscence o f boyh’ood. Prac­
tically they were in the same condition
as their younger fellow citizens.
The people o f tlie United States;
then, have no practical knowledge' of
any other method of administering
government. The spoils'system is like
one of those custom s.wMcli the- com­
mon law declares equivalent to a stat­
ute, “ a custom so old that-the memory
o f man runneth not to the contrary:’!
It is a part o f the unwritten law, an
unexpressed but understood provision
o f the constitution. I t is interwoven
with all their modes o f political thought;
it interminglesi-with all their motives .of:
political action.--W alter M. Ferriss in
