WEST SIDE EVENTS.
The Jackson Street Baptist Coofre
gation on the Verge of
t Split.
The rock on which the Jackson Street
Baptist church muy split was reached
last evening, und the catuatroiihe was
averted for the time being, only, the
members holding the old ship back un
til other plans for sufety should be con
sidered. The trouble is over the cull
ing of u pustor to the church.
Since Ir. l. O. Hughes so suddenly
left the church und went to New York
city, the church has been without a
pastor. The church w as deeply in debt
at the time, but by earnest effort and
thrift the tinuncluldespair was tempor
arily cleared.
Now another danger has arisen. A
pastor is wanted and the ongregutlon
cannot agree. A meeting was held last
evening for the purpose of selecting or
calling u pastor. Ithiiurd Nicholls, a
prominent member of the church, was
chairman. When the time came for
nominating a minister, Uev. J. V. Will
lams, now of Wules, but formerly pas
tor of the First Welsh Baptist church,
was named and the nomination wus Im
mediately seconded. The chairman
called for other nominations, but none
were forthcoming. The matter never
came to u vote.
For several hours the main Issue was
dodged, the members devoting the time
to discussing other topics. Finally, UN
meeting was adjourned without any
definite action. Another- meeting will
be held next Thursday nigh I.

From Harper's Round TafT.e.
if you can't afford a barometer to tell
you what kind of weather you are go
ing to have, perhaps the following old
proverbs will prove of use In helping:
you to prophesy as to whether It will
rain tomorrow or not:
If spiders in spinning their webs make
the termination tilamenls long, we may.
In proportion to the length, conclude
that the weather will be serene, and
continue so for ten or twelve days.
If many gnats are seen In the spring,
expect a tine autumn; If gnats fly In
compact bodies In the beams of the set
ting sun, there will be fine weather.
If the garden spiders break and de
stroy their webs and creep away, ex
pect rain or showery weather.
If sheep, rains and goats, spring
around in the meadows and fight more
than usual, expect rain.
If cuttle leave off feeding and chase
each other around the pasture, expect
ruin.
If cats hack their bodies and wash
their faces, ruin.
If foxes and dogs howl and bark more
than usual, if dogs grow sleepy and
dull, ruin.
If mules cast up hills, rain.
If horses stretch out their necks and
sniff the air and assemble In the corner
of a Held with their heads to leeward,
rain.
If rats and mice be restless, rain.
If peacocks and guinea fowls scream
and turkeys gobble, and if quails make
more noise than usual, rain.
If the sea birds fly towards land, and
land birds My toward the sea.
If the sea cock crows more than usual,
and earlier, expect rain.
If swallows fly lower than usual, ex
pect rain.
If bats flutter and beetles fly about,
there will be fine weather.
If birds In general pick their feathers,
wash themselves and fly to their nests,
rain.
Some of the queerest miscellaneous
quips received are to the effect that:
If there are no falling stars to be seen
on a bright summer evening, you may
look for fine weather.
If there be many falling stars on a
clear evening In the summer there will
be thunder.
A rainbow in the morning is the shep
herd's warning.
If fish bite more readily and gambol
near' the surface of the ponds and
streams, then look out for rain.

Senator Sherman, of Ohio, In a speech
at Sandusky during the campaign for
Lincoln's re-election In the fall of 18tH,
drew this rough but accurate outline of
the lamented president's character:

ablest intellect In the I'nlted State

him. He bus been deliberate and slow,
but when be put his foot down it is with
the determination and certainty with
which our general lake their steps,

believed that he was right, und shall
vote for thels brave, true, putriotle,
kind-heurted man.
"All his faults and mistakes vou have
