Blaine bas pone to Europe and
kill remain away a year and a half.
Exgiand is still acquiring territory.
Turkey Las jnst ceded the Island of
Cypress to her.
There is no end to the criticism of
the officers of the State Senate for
failing to sign the Hevenue Bill, the
most important bill passed by the
late Legislature.
"Silver dollars to the number of
100,000,000 may be stowed away in
the silver vault now being built at
"Washington. The walls are to be
4 J feet thick. The vault will be the
largest in tho world."
The General Revenue Act passed
by the late Legislature has failed to
become a law. Governor Beaver,
w hen he came to examine it found it
witLout the signature of the Presi
dent or President pro tern of the
Sec ate and of course he could not
sign it. One of tlio popular features
of the bill is that it abolishes the tax

AnnthfT nnimlar feature is that it
gives to the counties half of the tax
collected on judgements, mortgages,

Tm Philadolnhia Bulletin of the
1st inet., says :
During the recent discussion ny
the General Presbyterian Assembly
of the communion wine question, sev
rra! clergymen undertook -to explain
the exact character of the wine U6ed
by the Saviour at tho Last Supper.
After the issue had been disposed of
by the adoption of a resolution in fa
vor of unformcnted wine, the Eev. j.
S. Martin, of Chillicothe, madeanov
el suggestion.
'Having drawn the line on the wine
qnestion," he remarked to one of the
brethren, "-t's now in order for the
Assembly to determine the exact kind
of .' t -"0 aron which 5tVsei engraved ,

stone, limestone or concrete-."
The Niuw York Independent of laFt
week says : The Presbyterian Church,
as annouueed by the Moderator in
General Assembly, has now amended
i'cs Confession of Faith in one partic
ular. The section which forbids a
man whose wife has died to marry
her sister has been most wisely omit
ted. It has been a dead letter this
long while, and in one case a man
who had married his deceased wife's
sister was Moderator of the Assem
bly, and was president of the chief
theological seminary in tho Church.
But in this case there was no disloy
alty on his part, or on the part of
those who elected him. to the Presby
terian Church or its Creed ; for no
minister is required to declare his
absolute acceptance of every single
statement in the Creed, but only that
he believes that it "contains" the "sys
tern of doctrine" taught in the Iloly
Scriptures.
The Marriacre Law as Amended.
The act enlitle-d 'An act relating
to marriage licenses, providing for
officers indicated to issue licenses for
parties to marry,'' was amended by
the last Legislature to read as fol

derman or justice of the peace of the
township, ward or county wherein
either of tho contracting parties re

Letter From Kansas.
TorEKA, Kassas, May 1837.
Dear Sexttsel : We welcome your
wM-klv news to our western home
from the valley of the Juniata. How
changed since the time I loft the pa
renUl roof and said the fond good
bve to a dear mother and good sis
ters and brothers to seek fortune or
fuilnrA in the then far west which
was Indiana. I took passage on a
canal packet boat to Hollidaysburg
from which place we were pulled ov
er the Allegheny mountains on the
Portage railroad by station engines
that were located at the head of each
plain, or at the end of each zig zag
! to Johnstown, and there again took
a canal packet to Pittsburg, thence
by steamboat on the Ohio river to
Madison, Indiana, thence by II. R
to Indianapolis, where I staid over
Sunday and heard Henry "Ward
Beecher preach Indianapolis was
then a 6inall town ; Ohio, how I won
dered, years after when I stood on
the Union depot, at tho magic
changes. From Indianapolis I journ
eyed west across corduroy roads
70 miles to Logansport then a small
town. They were then starting Chi
cago in a swamp, and people who
believed themselves wise langhed at
men for buying swamp land, but see
the change in 40 years and I tell you
Topeka is just where Chicago was,
only things move faster. A farm
that sold five years ago for.3000 was
sold a few days ago for 5? 150,000 ; an
other for .50,000. A year ago a par
ty of men gave thirty-two hundred
dollars for a 40 acre tract of laud
and have just refused $10,000 for it.
Two young machinists bought prop
erty a few years ago at 10 a month
and have been buying and selling
until now thev own fine houses and
have thousands to their credit in
bank. I write yon of these advance
ments until you tire of them. There
is nothing more certain, Topeka is
lwominT nn for tliA f:irnr ah a oiv-ftt
,i;Brfl,iiitnr nn;nf nf ? w.
nlid west, it is di-sfine.l to be a gtent !
commercial c-iU;r. It id the CspituI
of tho state and is the center cf the
United States aud is bound to be a
great city whether we will see it or
not Charter after charter are filed
for enterprises every day until we
cease to wonder and only wait to se
what to-morrow will bring forth. So
rapid are the advancements that we
cease to be surprised, and is it any
wonder, when only last fall a tract
of only 40 acres of land sold for $ GO
000 and is now being bargained for
at $150,000 to be plotted and put on
the market We are to have a circular
cable li. 11., water, gas, electric l'.ght,
and 34,000 inhabitants ail have come
in 26 years. Last Year we built
1500 houses. This year we expect
to build 2000 houses. We are iust
now trying to feel not surprised, ov
er the fact that a Boston company
of capitalists have gone up the river
sis miles and bought several hill
farms paying $400,000. From this
land lovely views aie to be had.
They propose to build a fine hotel,
and to extend the circular rapid trans
it It. It. to this property, and make
a good road for a fine drive, which
will be lit up by electric light at
night They will construct a dam
across the river and put up manufac
tories at a cost of 510,000,000. This
will then be one of the most beauti
ful as it is one of the most, healthful
places in the United States. We are
just high enough for good health.
Many people of poor health make
the mistake in going to Colorado.
It is too high for weak people. Peo
ple in poor health are finding out
what a climate we have. Men and
money are coming here by every
train. The real estate offices are
crowded, in numerous cases fortunes
are mado in a dav. Good bye.
T. B. THOMPSON.
Jud?e I.juru in Indiana.
LorisviixE, Ky., June 1. Sheriff
Lewis, of Gibson county, Indiana,
arrived in the city last night, and
brought the news of a very sensation
al affair happening in Crawford Co.,
Sunday. A 14 year old daughter of
J Flaunegan, near Boston, that coun
ty, was carried away and cruelly as
saulted At ten o'clock Sunday
morning, Walter and Charles Davies,
brothers of bad repute, visited the
Flaunegan residence, which is situat
ed eight miles from this place, in
Perry county, and finding the family
away from home save the daughter
and her two brothers, they told' the
Flanuigau boys that some stray
stock was breaking into the farm
a mile away from the house. The
1 lannigan boys started out in the di
rection indicated by the visitors as
that taken by the stray stock. No
sooner had they started to look after
the supposed stray stock than the
uavies hoys carried the daughter of
young Flannegan to a neighboring
wood, bhe was then beaten with a
stick of wood and left for .1. a.l
When the two brothers returned
home a 6earch was made for the miss
ing sister. An all night hunt failed
to discover her whereabouts, but on
Monday morning some of the neigh
bors found the girl, almost dead, tied
to a tree in the woods. She stated
that after the assault npon her, the
two men pointed pistols at her and
threatened to Bhoot her if she made
any outcry during the night The
two Davies boys who were the crim
inals, were found in the woods
near
morn-
nig. wne account slates that both
of them were taken to a sapling near
by and lynched after they had con
fessed the deed. Another states that
Walter Davies escaped, but that just
after drk h-3 brother Charles was
found concealed under a house and
was dragged ont by the infuriated
mob. He was terrified and quaking
with fear. He was securely strap
ne.l to a horse and elriven b;ick to
the spot where the crime had b9en
committed He begged lor mercy,
but bis cries were unheeded. He
was taken from tho horse, ms hands
tied lehind him, and was given two
minutes in which to pray. He availed
himself of the time allowed, and at
the expiration of it a stout sapling
was bent down ; a short rope tied to
the top, with the other end about
Davie's neck. Six men held down
the tree, and when it was released it
flew back into position and Davies
was ierked 20 feet in the air. The
force threw him over the top of the
tree, and as the rope brought him
nn short on the other side, his neck
WAS broken. The body was riddled
with bullets by the crowd, and was
allowed to bang there until yester
day morning, when it was cut down
by his father and given burial.
The Pit Krow Lassies.
One of the most noticeable legisla
tive attempts to interfere with the nat
nrnl rnnrKA of industry IS found 1U a
bill lately introduced into the British
Parliament providing that "no wom
an or girl phall be employed in con
nection with any mine for the pur
pose of manual labor, below or above
ground."
The women of the British coal
mines are well known. They work
at the mouth of mine assorting coaL
n,1 are called "nit brow lassies." The
The heroine in that charming novel,
"That Lass o' Lowrie's," was one of
them. Their work is the reverse of
dainty, and their appearance, when
engaged in it, more masculine than
feminine, since they wear a coarse
sort of trousers, and are begrimed
with coal dust. These unattractive
facts appear to have moved the leg
islators in London to at tempt to rem
edy them by wiping out the women's
occupation.
The result has been to bringa dep
utation of twenty-four Lancashire pit
women to Loudon to protest against
this plan of legislating them out of
industrial existence. Four miners
came with them to support their pray
er, and Mr3. Parke", the wife of the
Mayor of Wigan, where- the women
work, came to add her testimony for
the same purpose. The pit brow lass
ies appeared in the usual femine gar
ments, and differed very little in ap
pearance from ordinary working girls
except that they were more sturdy
and stalwart- Mrs. Parkes said that
the women of the pit brow worked
but eight hours anda-half a day ; that
their labor was more healthy than
cotton-mill work, and that they were
"as good and as pure as any of their
sisters.
Tui appearance of the women, and
(he 'ervencv -.villi which theyi-IeadeJ
for the right to work as they thought
best, seem to have drawn from the
officers of the Government an assur
ance that the bill should not be car
ried any further.
Very possibly the great majority of
sentimental reforms have been just
as repugnant, to those for whom they
were ostensibly designed as this prop
osition was to the women of the coal
mines. New York Sun.
Swindled.
John rJummeL of Monroe township.
Snyder county, was recently swindled
out of $3,000 very cleverly by" three
sharpers in the following manner ; He
had been corresponding with a man
who signed himself C. B. Baxter, M.
D. On Saturday morning. May 14,
two well-dressed strangers drove to
Mr. Hummei's farm, where they met
that gentleman, and Baxter introduc
ed Mr. W.IL Morton, his lawyer. The
party looked over the farm and be
gan negotiating foi the sale. While
near the barn another well dressed
6tranger drove up, and introduced
himself to the party. His business
was that of painting advertisements
on barns and fences. After a great
deal of talk the last man produced a
satchel in which were rows of envel
opes that he said contained prizes.
The price for draws was five dollars,
and Morton said he would take a
shine at the prizes, which according
to the fakir, ranged from five dollars
to six thousand. Morton lost, his
first draw being a blank. This did
not discourage him in the least bub
he asked Mr. Hummel for a small
loan to e-ontiiinelhe game. Mr. num
mel handed him thirty elollars, and
he commenced over again. Morton's
luck changed, for from the first time
he won. First five, then ten, and
soon fifty, with only an occasional
loss. Then Mr. Hummel drew, and
he won five dollars. The next time
he lost, but he noon won, 'till at
length, guided by his friend Morton,
ho drew an envelope containing a
card with the mystic figures, $6,000,
"conditionally." The eonditions were
plain, Mr. Hummel had to pay over
the sum of 53.000 in cash, for which
he was to receive $6,000, and he was
to have two hours to do it in. He
hadn't the money, but Lis friends
suggested that he go to Sunbury and
draw the amount from the bank. This
he agreed to do, while the remainder
of the party awaited his return. Mr.
Hummel went to Sunbury to the bank
and received 3,000 in bills, of good
American money, and in return pla
ced upon the counter bis check for
that amount He then returned to
his farm above Northumberland,
holding in his hand the card on which
appeared a dollar mark, the figure
six, and three ciphers. The advertis
ing man was seated in bis buggy by
the barn, and Mr. Hummel paid him
the $3,000. As soon as he received
it he shut up his satchel, hit his horse
a cut tu.d drove for Milton. Morton
ami Baxter condoled with Mr. Hum
mel for an hour; said they bad also
been stuck and could not purchase
the farm at that time, but would re
turn. They also made him promise
not to mention the lose, and left af
ter bidding him an affectionate adieu.
Mr. Hummel, with assistance, pur
sued them to Erie, where he lost all
trace of them. The utmost secrecy
was maintained by all connected with
it but it finally leaked out Liver
pool Son.
Ko Mixed Marriages.
Archbishop Lynch, of Toronto,
has issued the following order to all
the priests in his diocese in Ontario:
"You will please announce to your
people that we have determined to
grant no dispensations for mixed!
marriages when the woman is a non
Catholic. Experience of many years
has proven that a Protestant mother
cannot riJo her children Catholics,
and she is thus unable to comply
with the essential condition on which
such a dispensation is granted.
They may apply to Rome direct if
they will.
A Long Time Ago.
"Say," 'Baiel one of the condemned
Chicago bomb throwers, "you remem
ber how about the time we were con
victed that "
"Hold on, partner," replied auoth
er, "don't know that I remember."
"But you know when we were con
demned "
"Can't say that I do. What are
you getting at, anyhow !"
"I was trying to refer to an 'event
which took place about the time we
were convicted here in Chicago for
killing those policemen it was a long
time ago, but you mnst remember it."
"Ya-es I don't know but I have
an indistinct recollection of it, b.ut I
can't call to micd any of the particu
lars. I know it happened when I was
quite a young man, and it's sorto' fa
ded away as the years rolled by.
Come down to modern times if you
want to talk to me.
And just about this time the grand
son of the lawyer who defendod them
in the original trial got up in aneigh-
borinff court room and asked for a
new trial, and an appeal, and a stay
of proceedings, and that the whole
thing be thrown out of court Da

Farmers Stray Cattle.
in Canada, as in most other com
munities, when a farmer picks up an
estray animal, he cares for it, adver
tises it, and calls upon the owner to
prove Property, pay charges and
take the animal away. To rhe ordi
nary mind this transaction appears
very straight-forward, and to offer a
very small opportunity for fraud.
But the mind of the swindler is equal
to the occasion, and can convict this
simple matter of advertising an es
tray, into a swindle upon the fanner
who advertises. 1 hese swindlers as
usual, haunt in couples. According
to the Sarina, Ontario, Observer :
They read the local newspapers care
fully, and when a farmer publishes
an estray notice, No 1 calls to look
at the animal. The farmer phows
the beast and the fellow decides it is
not his ; then he returns to his part
ner and describes it minutely to him.
No. 2 goes to the farmer and after
proving by a thorough description
that he is the owner of the animal.
savs he cannot take it away, and
offers to sell at a bargain. The far
mer buys it and in a few days the
right owner comes and claims the
animal." This is a swindle which
may readily take in an honest far
mer, and it will probably not be con
fined to the other side of the border.
Farmers beware how you purchase
estrays. American Agriculturalist

A Western Bishop has (riven i io
the . world ..his ideal trirl. ' J
would not be rash to fancy by 'Ulfc
way, that tho Bishops wife was flat-
tered by the elescnption. It sounds j
very much like men say "Mother was
when she was a girl." -She was a
little girl nntil she was 13 years old
and she helped her mother in her
household duties. She had her
hours of play and enjoyed herself to
the fullest extent She never naid
to her mother "I can't I don't want
to," for obedience was to her a cher
ished virtue. She arose in the morn
ing when called, and we do not sup
pose she had her hair done np in pa
pers aud crimping pins, or banged
over her forehead. She did not grow
into a young lady and talk about her
beau before she was in her teens,
and she did not read dime novels,
nor was she fancying a hero in every
plow boy she met The old fashion
ed girl was modest in her demeanor,
and she never talked slang nor used
by words. She did not laugh at old
people nor make fun of cripples.
She had respect for her elders, and
was not above listening to words of
counsel from those older than her
self. She did not know as much as
her mother, nor did she think her
judgment was as good as that of
her grandmother. She did not go
to parties by tho time she was ten
years old, and stay till after midnight
dancing with any chance young men
who happened to be present She
went to bed in reason and doubtless
said her prayers and slept the sleep
of innocence, rose np in the morning
happy and capable of giving happi
ness. As now, there be an old fash
ioned girl in the world to day, may
Heaven uiess and keep her and raise
up others like her.

It is a remarkable fact not gener

numbering about 200,000 have the

in the time of the great dispersion

it, restore its original color, promote iu
rapid and vigorous growth, and impart
to it the lustre and freshness of youth.
I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for a
long time, and am convinced of its
value. When I was 17 years of age my
hair began to turn gray. I commenced
using the Vigor, and was surprised at
the good effects it produced. It not
only restored the color to my hair, but
so stimulated its growth, that I have
now more hair than ever before.

Ayer's Hair Vigor,
Bold by all Druggists sad Perfumers.
Ir too aek suitering from debility
and loss of appetite; if your stomach is
ont of order, or yonr mind confused;
take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medicine
will restore physical force and elasticity
to the system, more surely and speedily
than any tonic yet discovered.
For six months I suffered from lirtr
and Htomnch troubles. My food did n;
nourish me, and I became weak and
very much emaciated. 1 took six bottles
of Aver's Sarsaparilla. and was cured.
