Of coiirne bars could be put across
the windows of the postofllco depart'
merit, but this would make it a too
comfortable jail.
The "enemy's country" has spread
all the way from New York to Iowa.
All Mr. Uryan has to do now is to
cross his stale line.
.Senator llanna can now bo said to
be comfortably ensconced upon the
Iloosevelt Hand Wagon, with the

The kodak friends certainly do not
go after J. Pierpont Morgan in the
hopes of getting a newspaper-prize

Food baby.
John Jacob Astor is said to have
been the first American millionaire,
In 1820. New York today is credited
with having 1,320 million and multi
millionaires.
mere are always a good many
men, who, knowing well that they
could not under any circumstances
get the nomination, loudly proclaim
that they could not possibly afford to
accept such an office as the vice-
rresidency ol the United Htates.
It Is just possible that there are so
many congressmen who have been
taking active interest in securing
postofiice contracts for their constit
uents, that the question of appointing
an investigating committee may
never come to a vote.
Hon. John Barrett who has Just
appointed minister to Argentine has
traveled 45,000 miles in his trip
uround tho world in the past year
and has interviewed fifteen kings Rnd
emperors, largely in the Interests of
the Bt. Louis exposition.
A new York burglar received a
sentence ol four years. Upon damn
ing the Judge therefor, he received
two additional years. For further
cursing this style of justice and
assaulting a by-stander he received
three years more from the judge. He
may now conclude to bo good.
The Louisville Courier Journal can
be counted upon to shortly deliver
another scathing broadside against
Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Bryan and the
New York four-hundred; a Kentucky
warehouse fire destroyed a million
gallons of tine whiskey and the smoke
and heat has damaged some of the
best mint beds in the state.
The American squadron, so right
royally entertained at Kiel, Germany
is next the honored guest of King
TCdward In Knglish waters. Courtesy
and hospitality given or received, do
not lessen an individuals ability to
care lor or defend his own; on the
contrary an Interchange of courtesies
frequently prevents the necessity for
such defence.
It has been a long time in coming,
but we have It at last. Kx-Uovemor
Pattison of Pennsylvania brings for

campaign, "Turn the rascals out."
Inasmuch as the rascals will be not
only turned out, but most of them
turned in jail before even a meeting

It is a little difficult to see what the

Preaching services next Sunday
morning and evening at tho hours of
10.30 and 7.30 respectively. All are
welcome and the seats are free. The
subjects of the Sermons are : "Our
Talents, their usn and abuse,"
litigious Fervor."
The prayer meeting topic for
Wednesday evening is, "Fleeing
From Known Duties "
Plans are being made for a union
service one week from next. Sunday
evening The service will be, in the
interests of tampprir.ee. The speak
er, who is very highly recommend
ed, is Mr. Emmet t D. Nichols, E-q ,
of Wilkesbiwre, Pa. Further men
tion will be made next week.
The pastor 1ms Just come upon a
good suggestion in one of the church
papers and which may prove of some
value to our renders. The article
speaks of a "Go to Church Band"
which is organized among the chil
dren of the Sunday school of the
Westminister church of Brooklyn.
Our superintendent offers a prize to
all the children of our Sunday school
who do not miss a Sunday's patch
ing service each quarter But might
not this suggestion for a band of
church goers be extended to the
older people? Why would It not be
a good idea for some one nt the
different hotels and boarding houses
to do some work In this lino for
their respective churohos? If you
favor our church lot the pastor know
of yonr willingness to aid him in
this direction and ho will bi very
happy to render any assistance
within his power.
This Is the time of year when
informal tnusicalos and entertain
tuents have been given ut the differ
ent hotels for the bnneflt of the
church. These occasions have
brought tho guests in our village
and tho church people together in a
social way and wo hope that it has
been beneficial to nil parties con
oerued. We will be pleased if any
thing can be done in this direction
during the remainder of this month
or in August.
The pastor would be very happy
to meet and to render any services
desired to those of our denomination
and who may be sojourning in
Milford for the summer or a briefer
period of time. He would appreciate
the honor if approached as freely as
suoh would ga to their own pastor
if he were here.

excited considerable interest of late
V hy may we not hear from the
men who do not go to church? W
are sure the Editor of the Phess will
give more space for a discussion of
this important problem. Is it
possible that men are too lazy? Ia

themes discussed from the pulpit
of no practical value? Lot us hear

may be helpful.
