The express car ami the pas- sengers were de-poiled of everything of value. Even tlw linger rings of the ladies were taken. About two miles east of Independence the engineer. Jack Foote, had his atten- tion attracted by the waving of a red lan- tern. He put on the brakes, came to a atop, and found himself and train in the clutches of the desperate gang which has commit- ted so many daring crimes. The number of robbers is variously estimated at from ten to sixteen. They got into the express car, knocked.the messenger down, injuring him severely, after which they robbed the safe and then proceeded to rob the passen- gers Six men went through the passenger cars. One man headed the rile with cocked revolvers, which be presented at the heads of the frightened passengers. The man next to him carried a sack, which he held open, and into which the passengers drop- ped their valuables. Following the man with the sack were four men armed to the teeth with revolvers or Winchester rifles. The leader, a tall, slim man, was masked with a white muslin cloth, as though a number of holes were cut in a handker- chief for eyes, nose and mouth, and then tied around the face and head. Some of tlie pas.->engers claim to have eccn hi« fea- tures, and they describe him as a blond, slender-lmilt man, with a long face, red moustache and whiskers, and about six leet high. The train was flagged by a lantern, which showed a red light by aid of a red handker- chief wrapped around it. Hut if this had failed to work, the train would have been stopped by a large pile of ties which had been placed 011 the track by the despera- dOCS *»^sss»l»^sl^i^i^ss»^sss»»^si • Jack Foote, the engineer, supposed of course that he had been signalled for dan- ger, stopped, and in an instant he was un- der the pistols of the bandit--. Conductor J. N. Hazebaker soon became aware of the terrible predicament of the passengers and with commendable energy he started on the perilous task of warning them. The robbers would certainly have killed him if they had discovered his mis- sion. He mined every passenger on the train from the smoking car to the sleeper, giving each an opportunity to hide his money and jewelry. To this fact is attri- buted the saving of several thousand dol- lars. G. S. Streetcr was in the smoker when it was entered. He succeeded in placing his watch in his pantaloons, with the guard wrapped around his suspenders, and the robbers failed to detect it. Hut they secured about $2 in money, which was gladly given up. The bandits di.l in.t stay long in the smoker, but pushed on into the sleeping car. The passengers had made themselves ready as well as they could. Money aud watches had bnen thrown into spittoons, pushed under the carpet, or pushed under the seats, so that the robbers made com- >aratively a very poor haul in the sleeper. ['he leader said, as he entered: "Uentle- stopped I was in the smoking car. Going out on the rear platform I saw some half- dosen mm descend into the cut and run toward the engine. I at once concluded that the train was about to be robbed. I hurried through the train, cautioning the paMengan to conceal their valuables, aud then, with Burton, started ba«k to stop the freight trahi. The robbers saw us and be- gan llrliig at us. A perfect volley of shots !i^-li.i!..,,.,l hut I w»« hmuiil tn en. and go 1 did, for I knew In how much danger we were. Fortunately, neither I not Burton were struck, and we accom- plishid what we set out to do." On returning to the Pullman car Con- ductor Hazebaker found it in possession of five robbers. They were deliberately call- ing upon the passengers to hand out their wealth, and were enforcing their requests at the muzzle of formidable looking revol- vers. OJI sighting the conductor he was taken into custody. "I had," said Mr. Hazebaker, "taken the precaution to se- crete my watch and hide some of my money, BO they did not deprive me of much when they robbed me. During the whole time they were in the car they were loud in their talk. Oaths were plentiful, and they cursed the company and said : 'We never would have undertaken this job if the Chicago and Alton Company had not joined withfhe -Rock Island Company in offering a reward lor us for the Winston robbery.' 'By !' said one of the rob- bers—he'who seemed to be the leader— 'if they offer a reward for us for this, d n our souls if we don't make 'em sick. We will capture their trains and set them afire, and burn up every car except the Pull- man cars. Pullman is wnite; he's never offered a reward.' One of the robbers poked a rpv»U/-r- ,.,>,i..r .,,,. , wvlu> an j g ;l id: • IUI is the revolver that killed Westfall, and if you don't look out you go too. Then the fellow declared with an oath that he was Jesse James. He „... .. ... iinu. i wore a mask. I don't think he was Jesse James, for I understand that Jesse has a forefinger off, aud this man had both of his. They made the ladies on the train pull off their rings, take out their earrings, ami surrender all their valuables, swear- ing all the time. When they had gone tlirough this car they got off, and in run- ning up to the top or the band of the cut said, 'Uood-by, old fellows; this is the last you will over see or hear of the James boys,' and then they made off toward the brush." •'How much did they get from the ex- unpany's car?" •'I don't know." •lluw much from the passengers?" "1 should judge they got away with $:),000, not counting the watches and jew- elry taken." One uf the most connected stories was told by diaries Garneld, from Rochester, Ni Y., en route to Kansas. When the train stopped he was in the ladies' coach. He looked out but saw nothing. The pas- sengers wundeiod what the stoppage was for, but did not know what was the matter. "I then," said Garneld, "heard somebody quarrelling as I thought, outside of the car, and heard heavy blows, as if they were I Inn several shots were tire'd, "an'tflt oo'ulii Bee nun with handkerchiefs drawn over their faces as masks, and holes cut in them for eye loops, getting up on the front and rear of the smoking car. I went into the reclining chair car, and everybody began to ask me what was the matter. I told them the robbers had got us.. The passen- gers bore the news very well, but, ofcourse, there was a great deal of commotion. Sev- eral ladies screamed and some almost fainted. They began to try to hide their valuables in the seats, but I do not think many of them succeeded, as the robbers soon reached the car. When they got to the car 1 was in. one man stood at the door with a gun. I couldn't tell whether it was a carbine or a Winchester ritie, and the other men nuni down through the car. I thought there were eight or nine of them in all but only counted six in the car. Two of them had drawn revolvers, and made everybody hold up their hands. Another had a bag of coarse sacking, into which they shoved everything that they took from the passengers—money, watches, jew- elry, and valuables of all kinds. The men went down on both sides of the car talking a good deal and seeuled to be very careless. They searched the passengers' pockets, but sometimes allowed a man to put his own band in his pockei and deliver up his money." Edward Johnson, a youtur man about SO years of age, was from Washington on his way to Denver. He was robbed of $5 and and his ticket to Denver. The robbers took a silver watch out of his pocket, and after looking at it said they did not want it and gav« it back. They said if it had been a gold watch it would" have been Rood enough for the gang. James E. Carr, from St. Louis, on his way to St. Joseph, was robbed of $7 and his ticket to St. Joseph. Charles Hall, from Ironton, Ohio, on his way to Denver, was robbed of $50 and his ticket to Denver A. S Yorkr-from Pern, Ind., on his way to Council mull's, was robbed of his pocket- book containing an amount of money. The men were all roughly dressed, the appar- ent leader in a blue shirt and black trous- ers, and all were masked with handker- chiefs drawn over their faces. Mr. York and the others in the ladies oar -ay that one of the robbers was very talkative, and that all were seemingly in- clined to make sport out of the job. i _ ij iiiif.,11 ..... ' I I *iiL-i» it all we CllIU Dr. Geo. D. Streeter, of Water, Tex., a tall, fine-looking gentleman, who took hU loss with extreme good nature, was stand- ing on the platform of the car when the train stopped. The brakeman, Burton, who flagged the freight train which was coining up behind, and saved the passen- gers' lives at the risk of his own, asked as the train stopped: "What is the meaning 'of this?" and then exclaimed, as he peered over the side: "By the Eternal, we are go- ing to be roboeui l>r. Sueeiei lone a iinu trold watch and $2 in money. He said the robbers asked the passengers their names, and looked at them closely, as if to be able to identify them if they erersaw them again. He describes the leader of the gang as a tall man, and gets nearer to the description of Jesso James than any of the other passen- gers. A CLUE. No one has yet been found who can swear that any of the gang left the scene of the robbery, as was the case at Winston, Otterville, Glendale in 187U, Muncie, and other points where Jesse James and his bold riders made their presence know aud felt. In this last case no one did ride away from the now celebrated Blue Cut. This, it is said, first gave the officers an almost certain clue that the robbers lived in the neighborhood. No sooner was it given than it was acted upon, and the result is that five suspected men are now in jail, and more will follow. At about 7 o'clock to- night a posse of deputy marshal under Wnig Kishlear arrived from the eastern portion of the county with CharleB Fish, who was arrested near his home in the Cracker Neck country. Fish left his home on the (lay of the robbery, and said he rode to Higginsville and then went by train to Independence, leaving for cast again on the 7 o'clock train. He also says he stop- ped some hours here, and that the county will have to suffer for his arrest. Tlie of- *"•"* are acting »•• •••»!! a sure way that it is now known that some one ui .i.. ,,_i,,.>.» em has given the party away, and it is be- lieved to be Sam Chapman. The marshal told the Tribune correspondent, not an hour ago, that if a certain party did not go back upon his oath, all the party who robbed the train on Wednesday night, with the possible exception of the leader, would be under arrest within twenty-four hours. ARRESTS. INDKPENDENCE, MO., Sept. 9. — Last night, when the news became known here that several of the supposed Chicago and Alton train robber had been captured and safely lodged in jail, the excitement was in- tense, ana large crowds assembled at the hotels, telegraph offices, am: the jail, and great was the speculation as to the evidence upon which they had been apprehended. The young men have been known in this section and throughout the country for years, and are scions of well-known families. They have been looked upon as rather hard characters, but have never been under ar- rest for state offences. The five men brought to this city are Sam and Creed Chapman, sons of Madison Chapman, a well-known farmer who lives near Blue Mills and Glen- grandfather was Trusty Noland one oi'iTie best-known men in the county. John Laud, another of the prisoners, and the one looked upon as the leader, i«also,a resident of Cracker Neck, and bears a bad character. Andy Kyan, a brother of the noted Bill Ryan, now in jail in Kansas City for complicity in the Glendale robbery of 1879, is a young fellow who has trained witli the hard characters of Jackson county, but. If he was in this last outrage, it is looked upon as his maiden effort. John Burgler is the son of the man who was killed in 1867, while guarding the jail here, by a mob. His older brother is said to have also been at Glendale in 1879, and isone of the men who went with the party who headed north to escape, while Jesse James, George Sheperd, and the others left for Joplin, where, Sheperd claims, he shot Jesse in the back, but which fact Mrs. Samuels composedly denied. The two Chapman boys and Burgler were arrested by the Saline county officers, on Thursday night. Ryan and Laud were taken into custody early this morning by Sheriff Casen, who left Independence on Thursday night, immediately after lauding the Chap- man boys in jail. It is thought that Sam Chapman has proved the Judas of the party, and has given all the gang away. From the Michigan Christian Advocate. Bishop £. 0. Haven's Last Hours. At a memorial service held in Central church, San Francisco, numerous addresses were delivered commemorating the life and work of Bishop E. O. Haven. Bishop Harris was present and iu a brief address made these remarks : Bishop Haven was one of the ripest schol- ars our church has produced, one of the iiioM suucessiui «inaLoi.~i.ui , i , , . , . n i... ever had; and he was a wise counselor in all matters pertaining to the interest of tlie church. I learned this more particularly in the last year, when, in the closest intima- cies and careful considerations that we are called upon u> give to the most delicate and diflcult questions of church Interests and church adininisirations; matters that af- ftsted the church from center to clrcum- ftrence, I found him the most thoughtful, julicious and wise man to whom it has teen my privilege to listen in the discussion cf such questions. He came to the Pacific coast feeling that there was a great work to accomplish here, and put his heart and soul into it. I had several letters from him after he came. He wrote me two long let- ers telling me that he would he unable to M present at the meeting of the board of bishops, but that he hoped circumstances would never again prevent him from being at his post, while he lived; and they never will. That life, so successful and so earn- est, was cut short sooner than he expect- td ; sooner than we expected. Now, I am here simply to say that as a board of bishops, we feel ourselves deeply bereaved. Next followed Dr. B. F. Crary, editor of the California Christian Advocate, who concluded his address as follows: We are indebted to Bishop Haven's sou Theodore for some notes that enable us to .jive a view oi tin. ^i ... .*• _ iu. .. r ...... that it seems difficult to be reconciled to its extinction. The recollection of thirty years briuge Bishop Haven before us in many re- lations, and all increuso our u.lmir.uion tor the man, and our sense of loss at his de- parture. We have met him daily at every general conference of which he was a mem- ber. In all he was prominent, and we be- lieve always voted about right. At least, we do not remember any important meas- ure voted upon in all that time upon which we did not agree, and at that fact we are disposed, not so much to ulogize our friend as to rejoice that we saw things as he did, and had the wisdom to follow him, or to teach the same conclusions in our own way. His life as a chief minister and superintend- ent has been exceedingly brief, but every day of it has been a blessing to the church. It closes thus : Two of the last articles that came from his pen strangely happened to be about the burial ground in which he now sleeps in peace. One of these, entitled "Prefactory Thoughts," a title almost pro- phetic, appeared in the Pacific Christian Advocate of June 10th; tlie other was "The Plymouth Hock of Oregon," from Zion's Herald of July 21st. He spoke of the Lee Mission burial ground, a beautiful, quiet spot, over-looking the city of Salem, Oregon, wild as yet, but adorned by nature. .V.Wlu.'.ul Indians, i . n ^ ' a M H V; rus Shepherd, the village scnool-master or Weston, Mass., his early friend and teach er, came out with him in 18.'iG. In 1830 Bishop Janes desired that K. O. Haven should go to Oregon as a missionary, and he accepted the position ; but tlie plan was changed and he was sent elsewhere. And now as he stood by the grave of his old friend, so far away from the old school - house, he said: "How full of strange wind ings is every human life." We stand iu the shadow of the great grief, and read again the sentiment with deeper interest, while we remember that the writer lies almost side by side with his friend, teacher and pupil, iu the same bed, rejoicing iu the same heaven. In October, 1880, while attending the Kentucky conference, Bishop Haven felt the first warning of his fatal disease, which by will and work he was striving to overcome. On June 24th. he delivered his lecture on "The Modern American, His Original Destiny,',' in the Methodist church at Salem. The next day, with Rev. F. P. Tower, presiding elder of Portland district, he rode to a quarterly meeting about thirty miles away. They returned through a driz- zling rain, and shortly afterward Bishop Haven was prostrated by a congestive chill. t i n *i «* i **i .i ••* - •**"' ti/i»->* \V lllle SUllcrJI!.''."'„; «"«« ..f U';i I; i r,.

He then told several that the next time a reward was offered for him he would burn the train, but would cut loose and save the l'ullnKtn car, as Pullman had never offered a reward. Following the unfortunate tram was a freight train, and Conductor Hazebaker knew that unless this train \v;is nagged it would run into the passenger train and kill aud maim scores of passengers. Hie action, with that of his brakeman, Frank Burton, was as great a piece of heroism as was ever exhibited in the western country. Although the robbers had threatened them with death if they moved, they deliberately started down tlie track to stop the approaching train Instantlv the bullets began to ram aiouud them from rifles and revolvers, sending a cold thrill through the frighten- ed passengers, who thought that murder was being done, and that their turn was next. Hazebaker and his brakeman, Bur- ton ran on, unheeding the bullets, until at lust, through the darkness, they saw the flashing headlight, and waving their lan- terns, heard the whistle and knew that they had averted further danger. This deed will illumine the history of train rob- bing as one of the greatest acts of heroism ever performed In the discharge of duty. After flagging the freight Burton re- mained, ant! Hazebaker returned to his train. The robbers snrrounded Burton, having pursued him while shooting at him. When the robbers reached him they poked their pistols op under his ear and wanted to know with many oaths what he was doing. As soon as he explained they appeared to be satisfied, and offered no further harm to him. . . Joel Hazebaker, the conductor of the train, was found at the union depot this evening.

They took $Si away troiu a fainting woman in the ladies' car, but gave it back. Mr. York savs there were six or seven robbers in the car, but they all looked alike to him. One of the fellows who did the searching talked a good deal. He asked York if he had any whisky, and said: "You can t oetcb us, and you needn't try it. I he only thing that will be done is to till up the country with marshals and sheriffs, who don't want to catch anybody and won* as Ion" as they can draw their expenses. Another exclaimed: "Let's hurry up and get to the sleeper. That's where we will find the big bugs." •V,-" chorused the gang, "lets goto the Pullman cars. There's where the big money is.'' From the accounts ot several of these passengers the robbers seemed to have talked a great deal more than was neces- sary and to have thought they were doing a very sharp trick in robbing the tram. These passengers thought the men who robbed the train were tanners' boys, al- thoiiBli some of the accounts say there was a man in the gang at least ,".0 years old with slightly gray hair. The accounts ot the p«Mengen are necessarily contused, and differ in many particulars. 1 he rob- bers alluding to their intended trip into the sleeper, said it Was a shame to wake up the ladles and that next time they would brin"- a woman to search the female pas- senger.. in alluding to each other, the nasiengers say, the robbers twice spoke ot [belt leader M .Jesse, and once as Jesse James, saying, "Tell Jesse to come on,' ni'i I 'Where is Jesse?" • •I would have given $10." a passenger •aid ' -if I had had a few nftv-cent pieces i inv pocket, for the robbers knew I ought not to be traveling without money, and glared at Se Svagely, but I anally es- " l !\ great many of the pa^ngw* *ucc U cd- ed Insavi.* a ,mrtot their valuables.

Throughout a large portion of the Mis- sissippi valley the remains of a former race of inhabitants are found, of whose origin and history we have no record, and who are only known to us by the relics that are found iu the tumult which they have left. The mound-builders were a numerous peo- ple, entirely distinct from the North Amer- ican Indians, and they lived so long before the latter that they are not known to them even by tradition. They were industrious and domestic in their habits, and the find- ing of large sea shells which must have been brought from the Gulf of Mexico, if not from more distant shores, proves that they had communication aud trade with other tribes. Perhaps the most interesting tact connected with this ancient people is that they had a written language. This is proved by some inscribed tablets that have been discovered in the mounds, the most important of which belong to the Daven- port Academy of Sciences. 'These tablets have attracted great attention from archie- ologists, and it is thought that they will some time prove of great value as records of the people who wrote them. It is still uncertain whether the language was gen- erally understood by the mound-builders, or whether it was confined to a few per- sons of high rank. In the mound where two of the tablets were discovered the bones of a child were found partially pre- served by contact with a large number of copper beads, and as copper was a rare and precious metal with them, it would seem that the mound In question was used for burial of persons of high rank. The in- scriptions have not been deciphered, for no key to them has yet been found; we are to- tally ignorant of the derivation of the lan- guage or of its affinities with other written languages. From the size and peculiarities of the pipes, it is inferred that smoking was not habitual with them, but that it was re- served as a kind of ceremonial observance. Our knowledge of the habits and customs of the mound-builders Is very incomplete, but it is sufficient to show that at least a part of this county was once inhabited by a peo- ple who have passed away without leaving so much as a tradition of their existence, and who are only known to us through the silent relics which have been interred tor centuries. A people utterly forgotten, a civilizafTon totally lost—was it through a great catastrophe in the history of the world, or was the ceaseless struggle for ex- istence so severe that they gradually suc- cumbed and passed away? Fourteen Great Mistakes. It Is a great mistake to set up our own standard of right and wrong, and lodge people accordingly. It is a great mistake to measure the enjoyment of others by our own; to expect uniformity of opinion in this world; to look for judgment and expe- rience In youth; to endeavor to mould all dispositions alike; not to yield to iinmate- rtaltrines; to look for perfection in our own actions ; to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied ; not to al- leviate all that needs alleviation, as far as lies in our power; not to make allowances for the infirmities of others; to consider everything impossible which we cannot perform; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to understand everything. The greatest ot all mistakes is to live only for time; when any moment may launch us into eternity. at Williamette university, at Salem. The next day, Mon- day, he spoke at the chapel exercise, and that evening he rose from the table at sup- per, and said: "I will bid you good evening now, and after a little I will say good morning." The good morning is yet to come. During the early part of his sickness he endured spells of extreme pain. Feeling one of these paroxysms coining on, he pray- eil to God to alleviate the terrible agony, and in a moment it all passed away. Mr. Dennison came in shortly after and found him praising God. He spoke of his prayer, and looking at his friend with earnest af- fection and trust, he seemed to see his thoughts.'and said: '"I am not superstitious, I am intensely scientific ; but I say to you that prayer was answered." The Sunday evening before his death, July 30th, was a period of great joy to him, and then as those dearest to him thought, the spirit began to tree itself from the body. Though he desired to live for the sake of his family, friends aud work, he testified that he could leave all to God, and if it was God's will that he should die, it was lUo his will. The night before his death, about two o'clock, he exclaimed : "My blessed Savior ! I put complete trust in my blessed Savior."' lli# son went to his bed and ask- ed : "Do you feel better, father?" He hard- ly seemed to hear the question, but said; '"•I feel happy, oh, so happy ! I feel within nie a new life." Then he lay quiet » mo- ment, and then sang, with a wuak and broken, but wonderfully expressive voice : "Blest be tin- tie that binds i nir hearts In Christian love, The fellowship of kludred mi mis Is like to that above." Fearing that the exertion would weaken him, he was asked If he could not sleep. "\ is," he said, "1 am resigned if you wish it. I will take a long, refreshing sleep." With Ilia consent a telegram had been sent to Bishop Harris, to arrange a supply for the conferences that were soon to meet, The morning of his death he regretted tin-, as he did not wish it to go on record that he had not done his full duty. A little while later his son Theodore read the morning paper to him. The bullet in the president's wound had just been located. He talked quietly and collectively, expressing Ilia pleasure that the bullet had been fouml without causing any pain. Soon after this he passed into a quiet sleep which gradual- ly became disturbed, and on attempting to arouse him he groaned as if in pain. Con- sciousness seemed to return only once after this, and that was when he was asked : "Are you trusting in Jons f" and when the question was repeated he answered with great emphasis : "Yes. oh yes." And these were his last words. He had but little pain during the last hours, but calmly and ra- tionally met death. " O death, where is thy sting; () grave, where is thy victory?" Our religion Is illustrated in the life of our illustrious friend aud brother. To the gtudmrt atoil the minister he Is an ever liv- ing example. A thousand educated, inllu- entlal citizens will mourn over him as their beloved friend; teacher and guide. Thou- sands of ministers will recall with deep emotion his saintly face and consecrated life. Many thousands feel that God's Church on earth has lost one of its staunch- es! friends, but ton thousand times ten thousand have welcomed iu heaven. were elected : C. II.

Observer: Judging from the specimens we have seen, the corn crop will bo far from a failure, in this section, after all. Messrs. John Tate,and Horace Seekel have left with us some very fine specimens.

A man without any ideas generally has the greatest idea of himself, men are like bu- gles, the more brass they contain, the far- ther you can hear them; women are like tulips, the more modest and retired they appear the better you love them. Hon. John J. Robteon, In the last issue of the Manchester Enterprise, has the fol- lowing account of the recent "worm scare" in Sharon: "On Thursday, the 1st inst.. the residents of Sharon, iu the vicinity of the church and town hall, were consider- ably excited over a new and dangerous- looking worm and in such quantities as to teem truly alarming. They were first dis- covered iu two tielils adjoining the east of the' town hall. These tields were covered with a rank growth of purslain (commonly called pusley). aud on this the worms were feeding, Every inch ot ground was cov- ered, and in some places were two and three inches deep. Good guessens say there must have been at least one thousand bush- els of these worms on about twenty acres. They are voracious feeders and emit a sound while eating like a lot of school boys crunching raw turnips. Iu colur they vary Irom a light-green with longi- tudinal yellow stripes to a dark-brown or nearly black, with some stripes or yellow dots. The under side Is a greenish-yellow, and all are adorned witii a horn about three fourths of an inch in length near the posterior, and slightly curved and slightly inclined towards the rear. They are from two to five inches long, and vary iu thick- nens from a common had pencil to a me- dium-Sized cigar. The most ot them have left the llehTs where first seen and are traveling cast in search of fresher pastures. Thus tat they Bati8<7 their appetite on pur- slain, sorrel, yellow duck and a sort of m .pel weed that grows thickly by the road-side—its name unknown. They pass bv unmolested mir cultivated grasses, and as the w heal and Olll Btubblesshow growth of volunteer Mettab and these worms pass them by, we 111.i.v presume they will do no damage this fall. However, it you have porttilacia jfrowlng In your flower gardens look to it, for being ol the name genus as puislain, the worms would make shorl work with it. AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.

Chesaning Argus: The Oakley Cyclone editor was out prospecting yesterday. He drives a very nice rig and a gentle horse. One peculiar feature about the editor is he stands on his head in the bottom of the buggv and lets his feet hangover the dash- board, when riding. Charlotte Republican: It is curious what interest men take in watching others labor. Ever since the Kinne block was started a crowd of men could be seen at any time intently watching the workmen, offering advice, and discussing the probabilities of the mechanics knowing their business. Allegan Tribune: The iron-clad liquor law will be enforced in Allegan. One jus- tice sent a drunk to jail under it, 10 days before its going into effect. Butter is scarce aud high. Sunflower seed oil aud broom corn seed oil are said to be good substitutes for butter—for those who like those oils. Dundee Ledger: K. P. Gee of our place informs us that he has sold from one cow $U0 worth of milk and butter in the last six months, besides supplying a family of six with butter, and milk, except in July and 4 iiirnat in these two months no butter was made in cuusci^ucu^ 1/1 me w«rYu weather. Three Rivers Tribune: Forty years ago Mr. S. A. Fitch of Florence grafted a choice Mar upon a crab-apple stock in his garden. The tree has grown and flourished until it is now about 16 inches in diameter, 40 feet high and the spread of the branches is 25 IVit. It is thrifty looking and bears from 12 to 25 bushels of tine fruit nearly every year. Grass Lake News, Sept. 15th: The double track is so far completed as to allow the running of trains over it since Sunday last at noon. A switch house and two sema- phors have been put up and the yard force here will be increased by four men whose duties will be to attend the switches. All trains commenced registering at this point Sunday. Mt. Clemens Monitor: The new court house, despite its beauty and substantial construction, is sometimes criticized. A New Baltimore contractor was in town Tuesday, and in response to an inquiry said he didn't like the court hou9e at all.

The loop is left so that it drags in the furrow, just before the turn- ing furrow slice, and pulls the weeds under it so that they are buried. They will grow no more after that, and if the work is well and cleanly done there is an end of them. Oxford Globe : The wisdom of a change of venue, in the Hall poisoning case, is questioned by a good many thinking peo- ple in this county. The reason for chang- ing it is on the ground of not being able to obtain an impartial jury. We think this is a grand mistake, and have no doubt but that a dozen juries could be obtained in this county, who would hear the case impartial- ly and decide justly. It would make a sav- ing to the county of from one to three thou- sand dollars. Albion Republican : On Monday the milkmen notified their customers that, ow- ing to the drouth and consequent scarcity of feed, they found it necessary to advance the price of milk one cent a quart. Owing to the short wheat crop, the drouth, pff r— — »,• J2— «_,ii»n meal, In fact everything in the provision line, are " going a-kiting,' 1 and it would seem that if working men are to have anything to live on besides johnnycake and soup, wages must also advance. Bay City Tribune: An exchange says that when a man is riding a bicycle he looks nei- ther to the right nor to the'left, but appears to be gazing about 500 years into futurity, as if trying to solve the problem of the Bereafternett of the Unknowableness of the Unknowable Hereafter. He is not, however. He is simply wondering, in case of a sudden header, whether his skull would be split open, or if he would escape with his nose mashed all over his face. The chances are that he would. Grand Haven Herald: Social currents, both as to their volume and their healthy flow, run largely through the church chan- nels. No family can hope for any com- fortable place iu society if they mingle not With their fellows In a Christian congrega- tion. There meet the most intelligent and worthy people, and one can hardly hope for intimate acquaintance and fellowship with these it they be not wonted attendants at church and have not a recognized stand- ing in some Christian congregation. Decatur Republican : A Marshall man, a former resident here, while in town a few weeks ago, was impressed with the idea that there was money in wheat options and instructed a friend to invest #250 for him and he would make it all right with liim. The purchase was made and after consider- able rise a sale was ordered and the Mar- shall man came down last Thursday, drew his little $750, paid over the $250 and went home $500 ahead without having really in- vested a cent.

We have heard of no pulpit taking the respon- sibility of introducing it. What minister or congregation will lead off in its adop- tion » The changes that were made in its revision, were executed under the super- vision of the soundest scholars and theolo- gians of the present age, and the peculiar doctrines of the different orthodox churches were regarded, were not disturbed, and the obscure parts were made as plain as could be without detracting from its original meaning. And farther than this, no ma- terial change was made, only to correct the bad grammar. Why not use it as the bet- ter translation, in all the churches? Ogemaw Herald: Sonic of our readers will remember of reading an article in the Herald two or three months ago, in regard to a beetle shaped insect that went into the ground after the potatoes and eat the inside out ot tin-in. Although we have not caught sight of this pest we are satisfied it is here. If our farmers will look ia their potatoe fields^ thej- will see _dead_ stalks.^ < yA,<H!(J by these insects and the potatoes if dug out of the hill, will look spotted where they have been eaten. Of course this insect's depredations are limited as yet; but we would advise our farmers to keep watch of their potatoes as it may be necessary to dig them in order to save them. The potatoe bug is a blessing in comparison to this last edition. "Xerer Mind the Hat, My Boy." General Sheridan was idly sauntering up and down the lobby of the Windsor hotel, deep in thought, and complacently puffing at his Havana, and blowing the white smoke into pretty little rings. Suddenly a rough-looking man, with face so hoavily bearded that one could see nothing but the twinkling black eye, approached him, and, raising his hat with awkward embarrass- ment, said: "Good morning, general." The hero of Winchester returned the greeting, touched his cap with military po- liteness, and then, trying to peer through the miner's heavy beard to get a glimpse of his features, the general said: "I'm afraid I've forgotten your face, sir." The eves of the man from Gunniaon "It's not unlikely, general; seein s we never met but once afore, you wouldn't be so apt to remember me as I am you. It's seventeen years since I saw you last- Things has changed since then. It was on the battle-field of Cedar Creek. Don't you remember the soldier that gave you his horse when yours was shot down from un- der you by a shower of canister from the masked batteries on the brow of the hilly" and the old man looked up with eager pride into the general's face. "That I do," answered the general, with pleased interest and a brighter 1la~.l1 in his eye; "I remember it well." "I was that soldier," continued the miner, proudly. "I remember the circum- stance well, sir. When you put the spurs to my horse and galloped of you left your hat behind you. I called to you as loud as I could, but you replied, 'Never mind the hat, my boy.' I've got that hat yet, gen- eral. It's hanging in my cabin in the mountains," and the rough fellow's eyes glowed with pleasure. Sheridan grasped his hand and led him to a seat, and for half an hour they fought the battle of Cedar Creek over again.—Den- __. •—-•* Didn't Win the Bet. The following story is told by Gus Wil- liams, the well known (icrman comedian. Two friends were discussing the merits of their acquaintances. S:iid one of tlie gen- tlemen : "Talk about mean men; now there's old Strassberger. He's the hardest, driest, meanest old Shy lock that ever lived. That man ! why !" And them he stopped as if words couldn't do justice to the sub- ject. " You're mistaken," said his friend. " He's not so bad ; even the devil isn't so black as he is painted. Now, I'll bet you $10 I can borrow $50 of him before night." " Done ! " and the money was put up. On posted the sanguine book-maker to his intended victim. "Strassberger, my boy, how are you?" and he slapped him on the back of a faded ready made coat with a capital assumption of good-fellowship. "Veil, I was all r-i-g-h-t. Vot's de mad • der mit you ?" "Look here, old fellow, I made a little bet about you just now; ha, ha ! It's a cap- ital joke." "Urn !" said Strassberger. "Veil ?" "Yes, I just bet $10 with Smithy that I could borrow $50 of you to-day." "Feefty tollar!" "Yes, that was the amount." "Und you bet ten ?" "That's what I put up.' 1 "Veil, now look here my friend" (in a low whisper) "you go straight avay off and hedge."—Virginia City Chronicle. " There is hope lor a m.in he can blush-" Muskegon Chronicle: These pesky sling •hots have once more been brought forth from their hiding places, and in the hands of urchins are as dangerous as fire-arms. Lart Friday some young boys were playing together when one aimed a sling shot at Rihvard Becker, son of John Becker, and fired the shot. The pebble struck the boy below the left eye, causing a profuse dow- ing of blood, "and a disfiguration of the optic. Chief Newell says he has instructed his subordinates to destroy every sling shot found in possession of the street gamin, and where said individuals are of a respect- able age, to chuck them Immediately in the calaboose. Wyandotte Herald: The wretched days of the war are over, thank God, but some of the reminiscences of the evil hour are very funny. Many a noble patriot con- tinued his business as usual, keeping a sharp eye on the possibilities of an army contract, and at the same time fought, bled and died on the victorious field—by proxy. A business man, the chief man of a thriv- ing country village, had been drafted. The news was not altogether a pleasant sur- prise, and his buxom, blooming wife wasiu the agony of sorrow. She dreamed of gory battles and wicked cannon-balls that took good men's heads on', and hospital-, and all soils of "ghastly" things. One day a stran- ger knocked at her gate, and in the mildest tones said: "Your husband has been draft- ed '-" "Vis," sobbed the woman, using the corner of her apron as a receptacle for her trais. "Well, I have come to offer myself as a substitute," said the stranger. The woman, who was not posted in war terms, dropped her apron, looked at the man with a dangerous flush in her eyes, and cried: "Do you think, sir, that while my poor husband is at the war 1 want any substi- tute for him In this house f* She looked lor as long as the broomstick, but the mild stranger had ' departed. A Desolate Historical Spot. Yorktown, which has a new interest to all the people of the land, at this time, is not reached by railway and is off the line of progress. Some day it may revive its old time prosperity ; at least it ought to be- come more accessible as a point for future pilgrimage. Before the revolution the town was quite an emporium, the only port from which the Virginia planters stripped their potatoes to Kngland. Balti- more and Norfolk gradually reduced it by oompetition. Some two centuries ago we first heard of it as one of the few outposts or forts in the colony. In 172."> it was the center of a thriving county—an Episcopal parish with sixty communicants with a church. Williamsburtr, the capital, with its house of burgesses and growing college, attracting thither the wisdom and fashion of the dominion, was scarce a dozen miles away. Until Cornwallis stationed himself there, Yorktown had escaped the ravages of war on the Virginia coast, anil after ils surrender It still contained about 71) house-, not more than two or three having been wholly destroyed. Fifteen years later it had not extended its limit, and we find Its population composed of negroes numbering about 800 souls. The last war, it neeil hardly be said, left it In a depressed condi- tion, almost beyond recovery, and to-day it contains only about800Inhabitants, among whom are to be found but few descendants of the ancient proprietors. Ill fact it seems to be the lot of Yorktowu that the more it beconio a hi.-toiical spot, the less it be- comes anything else. Nervousness.

» 1 1 1 . .->cpi. p. — LMKI, n i g l i l t l i eChicago and Alum passenger train, mtehere a little after !) o'clock, was robbed bymasked men about two miles east of Inde-pendence. The express car ami the pas-sengers were de-poiled of everything ofvalue. Even tlw linger rings of the ladieswere taken.

About two miles east of Independencethe engineer. Jack Foote, had his atten-tion attracted by the waving of a red lan-tern. He put on the brakes, came to a atop,and found himself and train in the clutchesof the desperate gang which has commit-ted so many daring crimes. The numberof robbers is variously estimated at fromten to sixteen. They got into the expresscar, knocked.the messenger down, injuringhim severely, after which they robbed thesafe and then proceeded to rob the passen-gers Six men went through the passengercars. One man headed the rile with cockedrevolvers, which be presented at the headsof the frightened passengers. The mannext to him carried a sack, which he heldopen, and into which the passengers drop-ped their valuables. Following the manwith the sack were four men armed to theteeth with revolvers or Winchester rifles.The leader, a tall, slim man, was maskedwith a white muslin cloth, as though anumber of holes were cut in a handker-chief for eyes, nose and mouth, and thentied around the face and head. Some oftlie pas.->engers claim to have eccn hi« fea-tures, and they describe him as a blond,slender-lmilt man, with a long face, redmoustache and whiskers, and about six leethigh.

The train was flagged by a lantern, whichshowed a red light by aid of a red handker-chief wrapped around it. Hut if this hadfailed to work, the train would have beenstopped by a large pile of ties which hadbeen placed 011 the track by the despera-d O C S *»^sss»l»^sl i i ss»^sss»»^si •

Jack Foote, the engineer, supposed ofcourse that he had been signalled for dan-ger, stopped, and in an instant he was un-der the pistols of the bandit--.

Conductor J. N. Hazebaker soon becameaware of the terrible predicament of thepassengers and with commendable energyhe started on the perilous task of warningthem. The robbers would certainly havekilled him if they had discovered his mis-sion. He mined every passenger on thetrain from the smoking car to the sleeper,giving each an opportunity to hide hismoney and jewelry. To this fact is attri-buted the saving of several thousand dol-lars.

G. S. Streetcr was in the smoker when itwas entered. He succeeded in placing hiswatch in his pantaloons, with the guardwrapped around his suspenders, and therobbers failed to detect it. Hut they securedabout $2 in money, which was gladly givenup. The bandits di.l in.t stay long in thesmoker, but pushed on into the sleepingcar. The passengers had made themselvesready as well as they could. Money audwatches had bnen thrown into spittoons,pushed under the carpet, or pushed underthe seats, so that the robbers made com->aratively a very poor haul in the sleeper.['he leader said, as he entered: "Uentle-

stopped I was in the smoking car. Goingout on the rear platform I saw some half-dosen mm descend into the cut and runtoward the engine. I at once concludedthat the train was about to be robbed. Ihurried through the train, cautioning thepaMengan to conceal their valuables, audthen, with Burton, started ba«k to stop thefreight trahi. The robbers saw us and be-gan llrliig at us. A perfect volley of shots

and go 1 did, for I knew In how muchdanger we were. Fortunately, neither Inot Burton were struck, and we accom-plishid what we set out to do."

On returning to the Pullman car Con-ductor Hazebaker found it in possession offive robbers. They were deliberately call-ing upon the passengers to hand out theirwealth, and were enforcing their requestsat the muzzle of formidable looking revol-vers. OJI sighting the conductor he wastaken into custody. "I had," said Mr.Hazebaker, "taken the precaution to se-crete my watch and hide some of my money,BO they did not deprive me of much whenthey robbed me. During the whole timethey were in the car they were loud intheir talk. Oaths were plentiful, and theycursed the company and said : 'We neverwould have undertaken this job if theChicago and Alton Company had notjoined withfhe -Rock Island Company inoffering a reward lor us for the Winstonrobbery.' 'By !' said one of the rob-bers—he'who seemed to be the leader— 'ifthey offer a reward for us for this, d nour souls if we don't make 'em sick. Wewill capture their trains and set them afire,and burn up every car except the Pull-man cars. Pullman is wnite; he's neveroffered a reward.' One of the robbersp o k e d a rpv»U/-r- ,. ,>,i..r . , , , . ,w v l u> a n j g ; l i d :• IUI is the revolver that killed Westfall,

and if you don't look out you go too. Thenthe fellow declared with an oath that hewas Jesse James. He „... .. ...iinu. iwore a mask. I don't think he was JesseJames, for I understand that Jesse has aforefinger off, aud this man had both ofhis. They made the ladies on the trainpull off their rings, take out their earrings,ami surrender all their valuables, swear-ing all the time. When they had gonetlirough this car they got off, and in run-ning up to the top or the band of the cutsaid, 'Uood-by, old fellows; this is the lastyou will over see or hear of the James boys,'and then they made off toward the brush."

•'How much did they get from the ex-unpany's car?"

•'I don't know."•lluw much from the passengers?"

"1 should judge they got away with$:),000, not counting the watches and jew-elry taken."

One uf the most connected stories wastold by diaries Garneld, from Rochester,Ni Y., en route to Kansas. When thetrain stopped he was in the ladies' coach.He looked out but saw nothing. The pas-sengers wundeiod what the stoppage wasfor, but did not know what was the matter."I then," said Garneld, "heard somebodyquarrelling as I thought, outside of the car,and heard heavy blows, as if they wereI Inn several shots were tire'd, "an'tflt oo'uliiBee nun with handkerchiefs drawn overtheir faces as masks, and holes cut in themfor eye loops, getting up on the front andrear of the smoking car. I went into thereclining chair car, and everybody beganto ask me what was the matter. I toldthem the robbers had got us.. The passen-gers bore the news very well, but, ofcourse,there was a great deal of commotion. Sev-eral ladies screamed and some almostfainted. They began to try to hide theirvaluables in the seats, but I do not thinkmany of them succeeded, as the robberssoon reached the car. When they got tothe car 1 was in. one man stood at the doorwith a gun. I couldn't tell whether it wasa carbine or a Winchester ritie, and theother men nuni down through the car. Ithought there were eight or nine of themin all but only counted six in the car. Twoof them had drawn revolvers, and madeeverybody hold up their hands. Anotherhad a bag of coarse sacking, into whichthey shoved everything that they tookfrom the passengers—money, watches, jew-elry, and valuables of all kinds. The menwent down on both sides of the car talkinga good deal and seeuled to be very careless.They searched the passengers' pockets, butsometimes allowed a man to put his ownband in his pockei and deliver up hismoney."

Edward Johnson, a youtur man about SOyears of age, was from Washington on hisway to Denver. He was robbed of $5 andand his ticket to Denver. The robbers tooka silver watch out of his pocket, and afterlooking at it said they did not want it andgav« it back. They said if it had been agold watch it would" have been Rood enoughfor the gang.

James E. Carr, from St. Louis, on hisway to St. Joseph, was robbed of $7 andhis ticket to St. Joseph.

Charles Hall, from Ironton, Ohio, on hisway to Denver, was robbed of $50 and histicket to Denver

A. S Yorkr-from Pern, Ind., on his wayto Council mull's, was robbed of his pocket-book containing an amount of money. Themen were all roughly dressed, the appar-ent leader in a blue shirt and black trous-ers, and all were masked with handker-chiefs drawn over their faces.

Mr. York and the others in the ladiesoar -ay that one of the robbers was verytalkative, and that all were seemingly in-clined to make sport out of the job. i_ i j i i i i f . , 1 1 . . . . . ' I I * i i L - i » i t a l l w e C l l I U

Dr. Geo. D. Streeter, of Water, Tex., atall, fine-looking gentleman, who took hUloss with extreme good nature, was stand-ing on the platform of the car when thetrain stopped. The brakeman, Burton,who flagged the freight train which wascoining up behind, and saved the passen-gers' lives at the risk of his own, asked asthe train stopped: "What is the meaning'of this?" and then exclaimed, as he peeredover the side: "By the Eternal, we are go-ing to be roboeui l>r. Sueeiei lone a iinutrold watch and $2 in money. He said therobbers asked the passengers their names,and looked at them closely, as if to be ableto identify them if they erersaw them again.He describes the leader of the gang as a tallman, and gets nearer to the description ofJesso James than any of the other passen-gers.

A CLUE.

No one has yet been found who canswear that any of the gang left the sceneof the robbery, as was the case at Winston,Otterville, Glendale in 187U, Muncie, andother points where Jesse James and hisbold riders made their presence know audfelt. In this last case no one did ride awayfrom the now celebrated Blue Cut. This,it is said, first gave the officers an almostcertain clue that the robbers lived in theneighborhood. No sooner was it giventhan it was acted upon, and the result isthat five suspected men are now in jail, andmore will follow. At about 7 o'clock to-night a posse of deputy marshal underWnig Kishlear arrived from the easternportion of the county with CharleB Fish,who was arrested near his home in theCracker Neck country. Fish left his homeon the (lay of the robbery, and said he rodeto Higginsville and then went by train toIndependence, leaving for cast again onthe 7 o'clock train. He also says he stop-ped some hours here, and that the countywill have to suffer for his arrest. Tlie of-*"•"* are acting »•• •••»!! a sure way that itis now known that some one ui .i . . ,,_i,,.>.»em has given the party away, and it is be-lieved to be Sam Chapman. The marshaltold the Tribune correspondent, not anhour ago, that if a certain party did not goback upon his oath, all the party whorobbed the train on Wednesday night, withthe possible exception of the leader, wouldbe under arrest within twenty-four hours.

ARRESTS.

INDKPENDENCE, MO., Sept. 9. — Lastnight, when the news became known herethat several of the supposed Chicago andAlton train robber had been captured andsafely lodged in jail, the excitement was in-tense, ana large crowds assembled at thehotels, telegraph offices, am: the jail, andgreat was the speculation as to the evidenceupon which they had been apprehended.The young men have been known in thissection and throughout the country foryears, and are scions of well-known families.They have been looked upon as rather hardcharacters, but have never been under ar-rest for state offences. The five men broughtto this city are Sam and Creed Chapman,sons of Madison Chapman, a well-knownfarmer who lives near Blue Mills and Glen-grandfather was Trusty Noland one oi'iTiebest-known men in the county.

John Laud, another of the prisoners, andthe one looked upon as the leader, i«also,aresident of Cracker Neck, and bears a badcharacter. Andy Kyan, a brother of thenoted Bill Ryan, now in jail in Kansas Cityfor complicity in the Glendale robbery of1879, is a young fellow who has trainedwitli the hard characters of Jackson county,but. If he was in this last outrage, it islooked upon as his maiden effort. JohnBurgler is the son of the man who waskilled in 1867, while guarding the jailhere, by a mob. His older brother is saidto have also been at Glendale in 1879, andisone of the men who went with the partywho headed north to escape, while JesseJames, George Sheperd, and the othersleft for Joplin, where, Sheperd claims, heshot Jesse in the back, but which fact Mrs.Samuels composedly denied. The twoChapman boys and Burgler were arrestedby the Saline county officers, on Thursdaynight. Ryan and Laud were taken intocustody early this morning by SheriffCasen, who left Independence on Thursdaynight, immediately after lauding the Chap-man boys in jail. It is thought that SamChapman has proved the Judas of theparty, and has given all the gang away.

Bishop £. 0. Haven's Last Hours.

At a memorial service held in Centralchurch, San Francisco, numerous addresseswere delivered commemorating the life andwork of Bishop E. O. Haven. Bishop Harriswas present and iu a brief address madethese remarks :

Bishop Haven was one of the ripest schol-ars our church has produced, one of thei i i o M s u u c e s s i u i « i n a L o i . ~ i . u i , i , , . , . n i . . .

ever had; and he was a wise counselor inall matters pertaining to the interest of tliechurch. I learned this more particularly inthe last year, when, in the closest intima-cies and careful considerations that we arecalled upon u> give to the most delicate anddiflcult questions of church Interests andchurch adininisirations; matters that af-ftsted the church from center to clrcum-ftrence, I found him the most thoughtful,julicious and wise man to whom it hasteen my privilege to listen in the discussioncf such questions. He came to the Pacificcoast feeling that there was a great work toaccomplish here, and put his heart and soulinto it. I had several letters from himafter he came. He wrote me two long let-ers telling me that he would he unable toM present at the meeting of the board ofbishops, but that he hoped circumstanceswould never again prevent him from beingat his post, while he lived; and they neverwill. That life, so successful and so earn-est, was cut short sooner than he expect-td ; sooner than we expected. Now, Iam here simply to say that as a board ofbishops, we feel ourselves deeply bereaved.

Next followed Dr. B. F. Crary, editor ofthe California Christian Advocate, whoconcluded his address as follows:

We are indebted to Bishop Haven's souTheodore for some notes that enable us to.jive a view oi tin. ^ i . . . .*• _ i u . .. r . . . . . .that it seems difficult to be reconciled to itsextinction. The recollection of thirty yearsbriuge Bishop Haven before us in many re-lations, and all increuso our u.lmir.uion torthe man, and our sense of loss at his de-parture. We have met him daily at everygeneral conference of which he was a mem-ber. In all he was prominent, and we be-lieve always voted about right. At least,we do not remember any important meas-ure voted upon in all that time upon whichwe did not agree, and at that fact we aredisposed, not so much to ulogize our friendas to rejoice that we saw things as he did,and had the wisdom to follow him, or toteach the same conclusions in our own way.His life as a chief minister and superintend-ent has been exceedingly brief, but everyday of it has been a blessing to the church.It closes thus : Two of the last articlesthat came from his pen strangely happenedto be about the burial ground in which henow sleeps in peace. One of these, entitled"Prefactory Thoughts," a title almost pro-phetic, appeared in the Pacific ChristianAdvocate of June 10th; tlie other was"The Plymouth Hock of Oregon," fromZion's Herald of July 21st. He spoke of theLee Mission burial ground, a beautiful,quiet spot, over-looking the city of Salem,Oregon, wild as yet, but adorned by nature..V.Wlu.'.ul Indians, i . n ' a M H V;rus Shepherd, the village scnool-master orWeston, Mass., his early friend and teacher, came out with him in 18.'iG. In 1830Bishop Janes desired that K. O. Havenshould go to Oregon as a missionary, andhe accepted the position ; but tlie plan waschanged and he was sent elsewhere. Andnow as he stood by the grave of his oldfriend, so far away from the old school -house, he said: "How full of strange windings is every human life." We stand iu theshadow of the great grief, and read againthe sentiment with deeper interest, whilewe remember that the writer lies almostside by side with his friend, teacher andpupil, iu the same bed, rejoicing iu the sameheaven. In October, 1880, while attendingthe Kentucky conference, Bishop Havenfelt the first warning of his fatal disease,which by will and work he was striving toovercome. On June 24th. he delivered hislecture on "The Modern American, HisOriginal Destiny,',' in the Methodist churchat Salem. The next day, with Rev. F. P.Tower, presiding elder of Portland district,he rode to a quarterly meeting about thirtymiles away. They returned through a driz-zling rain, and shortly afterward BishopHaven was prostrated by a congestive chill.t i n * i « * i * * i . i • • • * - • * * " ' t i / i » - > *\V lllle SUllcrJI!.''."'„; «"«« ..f U';i I; i r,.

Following the unfortunate tram was afreight train, and Conductor Hazebakerknew that unless this train \v;is nagged itwould run into the passenger train and killaud maim scores of passengers. Hie action,with that of his brakeman, Frank Burton,was as great a piece of heroism as was everexhibited in the western country. Althoughthe robbers had threatened them with deathif they moved, they deliberately starteddown tlie track to stop the approachingtrain Instantlv the bullets began to ramaiouud them from rifles and revolvers,sending a cold thrill through the frighten-ed passengers, who thought that murderwas being done, and that their turn wasnext. Hazebaker and his brakeman, Bur-ton ran on, unheeding the bullets, until atlust, through the darkness, they saw theflashing headlight, and waving their lan-terns, heard the whistle and knew thatthey had averted further danger. Thisdeed will illumine the history of train rob-bing as one of the greatest acts of heroismever performed In the discharge of duty.

After flagging the freight Burton re-mained, ant! Hazebaker returned to histrain. The robbers snrrounded Burton,having pursued him while shooting at him.When the robbers reached him they pokedtheir pistols op under his ear and wanted toknow with many oaths what he was doing.As soon as he explained they appeared tobe satisfied, and offered no further harm tohim. . .

Joel Hazebaker, the conductor of thetrain, was found at the union depot thisevening. He said: "When the traiu

Throughout a large portion of the Mis-sissippi valley the remains of a former raceof inhabitants are found, of whose originand history we have no record, and whoare only known to us by the relics that arefound iu the tumult which they have left.The mound-builders were a numerous peo-ple, entirely distinct from the North Amer-ican Indians, and they lived so long beforethe latter that they are not known to themeven by tradition. They were industriousand domestic in their habits, and the find-ing of large sea shells which must have beenbrought from the Gulf of Mexico, if notfrom more distant shores, proves that theyhad communication aud trade with othertribes. Perhaps the most interesting tactconnected with this ancient people is thatthey had a written language. This isproved by some inscribed tablets that havebeen discovered in the mounds, the mostimportant of which belong to the Daven-port Academy of Sciences. 'These tabletshave attracted great attention from archie-ologists, and it is thought that they willsome time prove of great value as recordsof the people who wrote them. It is stilluncertain whether the language was gen-erally understood by the mound-builders,or whether it was confined to a few per-sons of high rank. In the mound wheretwo of the tablets were discovered thebones of a child were found partially pre-served by contact with a large number ofcopper beads, and as copper was a rare andprecious metal with them, it would seemthat the mound In question was used forburial of persons of high rank. The in-scriptions have not been deciphered, for nokey to them has yet been found; we are to-tally ignorant of the derivation of the lan-guage or of its affinities with other writtenlanguages. From the size and peculiaritiesof the pipes, it is inferred that smoking wasnot habitual with them, but that it was re-served as a kind of ceremonial observance.Our knowledge of the habits and customsof the mound-builders Is very incomplete,but it is sufficient to show that at least a partof this county was once inhabited by a peo-ple who have passed away without leavingso much as a tradition of their existence,and who are only known to us through thesilent relics which have been interred torcenturies. A people utterly forgotten, acivilizafTon totally lost—was it through agreat catastrophe in the history of theworld, or was the ceaseless struggle for ex-istence so severe that they gradually suc-cumbed and passed away?

Fourteen Great Mistakes.

It Is a great mistake to set up our ownstandard of right and wrong, and lodgepeople accordingly. It is a great mistaketo measure the enjoyment of others by ourown; to expect uniformity of opinion inthis world; to look for judgment and expe-rience In youth; to endeavor to mould alldispositions alike; not to yield to iinmate-rtaltrines; to look for perfection in ourown actions ; to worry ourselves and otherswith what cannot be remedied ; not to al-leviate all that needs alleviation, as far aslies in our power; not to make allowancesfor the infirmities of others; to considereverything impossible which we cannotperform; to believe only what our finiteminds can grasp; to expect to be able tounderstand everything. The greatest otall mistakes is to live only for time; whenany moment may launch us into eternity.

at Williametteuniversity, at Salem. The next day, Mon-day, he spoke at the chapel exercise, andthat evening he rose from the table at sup-per, and said: "I will bid you good eveningnow, and after a little I will say goodmorning." The good morning is yet tocome. During the early part of his sicknesshe endured spells of extreme pain. Feelingone of these paroxysms coining on, he pray-eil to God to alleviate the terrible agony,and in a moment it all passed away. Mr.Dennison came in shortly after and foundhim praising God. He spoke of his prayer,and looking at his friend with earnest af-fection and trust, he seemed to see histhoughts.'and said: '"I am not superstitious,I am intensely scientific ; but I say to youthat prayer was answered."

The Sunday evening before his death,July 30th, was a period of great joy to him,and then as those dearest to him thought,the spirit began to tree itself from the body.Though he desired to live for the sake ofhis family, friends aud work, he testifiedthat he could leave all to God, and if it wasGod's will that he should die, it was lUohis will. The night before his death, abouttwo o'clock, he exclaimed : "My blessedSavior ! I put complete trust in my blessedSavior."' lli# son went to his bed and ask-ed : "Do you feel better, father?" He hard-ly seemed to hear the question, but said;'"•I feel happy, oh, so happy ! I feel withinnie a new life." Then he lay quiet » mo-ment, and then sang, with a wuak andbroken, but wonderfully expressive voice :

"Blest be tin- tie that bindsi nir hearts In Christian love,

The fellowship of kludred mi misIs like to that above."

Fearing that the exertion would weakenhim, he was asked If he could not sleep."\ is," he said, "1 am resigned if you wishit. I will take a long, refreshing sleep."With Ilia consent a telegram had been sentto Bishop Harris, to arrange a supply forthe conferences that were soon to meet,The morning of his death he regretted tin-,as he did not wish it to go on record that hehad not done his full duty. A little whilelater his son Theodore read the morningpaper to him. The bullet in the president'swound had just been located. He talkedquietly and collectively, expressing Iliapleasure that the bullet had been foumlwithout causing any pain. Soon after thishe passed into a quiet sleep which gradual-ly became disturbed, and on attempting toarouse him he groaned as if in pain. Con-sciousness seemed to return only once afterthis, and that was when he was asked :"Are you trusting in Jons f" and when thequestion was repeated he answered withgreat emphasis : "Yes. oh yes." And thesewere his last words. He had but little painduring the last hours, but calmly and ra-tionally met death. " O death, where isthy sting; () grave, where is thy victory?"Our religion Is illustrated in the life of ourillustrious friend aud brother. To thegtudmrt atoil the minister he Is an ever liv-ing example. A thousand educated, inllu-entlal citizens will mourn over him as theirbeloved friend; teacher and guide. Thou-sands of ministers will recall with deepemotion his saintly face and consecratedlife. Many thousands feel that God'sChurch on earth has lost one of its staunch-es! friends, but ton thousand times tenthousand have welcomed iu heaven.

SHARON.

A man without any ideas generally has thegreatest idea of himself, men are like bu-gles, the more brass they contain, the far-ther you can hear them; women are liketulips, the more modest and retired theyappear the better you love them.

Hon. John J. Robteon, In the last issueof the Manchester Enterprise, has the fol-lowing account of the recent "worm scare"in Sharon: "On Thursday, the 1st inst..the residents of Sharon, iu the vicinity ofthe church and town hall, were consider-ably excited over a new and dangerous-looking worm and in such quantities as toteem truly alarming. They were first dis-covered iu two tielils adjoining the east ofthe' town hall. These tields were coveredwith a rank growth of purslain (commonlycalled pusley). aud on this the worms werefeeding, Every inch ot ground was cov-ered, and in some places were two andthree inches deep. Good guessens say theremust have been at least one thousand bush-els of these worms on about twenty acres.They are voracious feeders and emit asound while eating like a lot of schoolboys crunching raw turnips. Iu colurthey vary Irom a light-green with longi-tudinal yellow stripes to a dark-brown ornearly black, with some stripes or yellowdots. The under side Is a greenish-yellow,and all are adorned witii a horn aboutthree fourths of an inch in length near theposterior, and slightly curved and slightlyinclined towards the rear. They are fromtwo to five inches long, and vary iu thick-nens from a common had pencil to a me-dium-Sized cigar. The most ot them haveleft the llehTs where first seen and aretraveling cast in search of fresher pastures.Thus tat they Bati8<7 their appetite on pur-slain, sorrel, yellow duck and a sort ofm .pel weed that grows thickly by theroad-side—its name unknown.

Oxford Globe : The wisdom of a changeof venue, in the Hall poisoning case, isquestioned by a good many thinking peo-ple in this county. The reason for chang-ing it is on the ground of not being able toobtain an impartial jury. We think this isa grand mistake, and have no doubt butthat a dozen juries could be obtained in thiscounty, who would hear the case impartial-ly and decide justly. It would make a sav-ing to the county of from one to three thou-sand dollars.

"Xerer Mind the Hat, My Boy."

General Sheridan was idly sauntering upand down the lobby of the Windsor hotel,deep in thought, and complacently puffingat his Havana, and blowing the whitesmoke into pretty little rings. Suddenly arough-looking man, with face so hoavilybearded that one could see nothing but thetwinkling black eye, approached him, and,raising his hat with awkward embarrass-ment, said:

"Good morning, general."The hero of Winchester returned the

greeting, touched his cap with military po-liteness, and then, trying to peer throughthe miner's heavy beard to get a glimpse ofhis features, the general said:

"I'm afraid I've forgotten your face, sir."The eves of the man from Gunniaon"It's not unlikely, general; seein s we

never met but once afore, you wouldn't beso apt to remember me as I am you. It'sseventeen years since I saw you last-Things has changed since then. It was onthe battle-field of Cedar Creek. Don't youremember the soldier that gave you hishorse when yours was shot down from un-der you by a shower of canister from themasked batteries on the brow of the hilly"and the old man looked up with eagerpride into the general's face.

"That I do," answered the general, withpleased interest and a brighter 1la~.l1 in hiseye; "I remember it well."

"I was that soldier," continued theminer, proudly. "I remember the circum-stance well, sir. When you put the spursto my horse and galloped of you left yourhat behind you. I called to you as loud asI could, but you replied, 'Never mind thehat, my boy.' I've got that hat yet, gen-eral. It's hanging in my cabin in themountains," and the rough fellow's eyesglowed with pleasure.

Sheridan grasped his hand and led himto a seat, and for half an hour they foughtthe battle of Cedar Creek over again.—Den-__. •—-•*

The following story is told by Gus Wil-liams, the well known (icrman comedian.Two friends were discussing the merits oftheir acquaintances. S:iid one of tlie gen-tlemen : "Talk about mean men; nowthere's old Strassberger. He's the hardest,driest, meanest old Shy lock that ever lived.That man ! why !" And them he stoppedas if words couldn't do justice to the sub-ject.

" You're mistaken," said his friend." He's not so bad ; even the devil isn't soblack as he is painted. Now, I'll bet you$10 I can borrow $50 of him beforenight."

" Done ! " and the money was put up.On posted the sanguine book-maker to hisintended victim.

"Strassberger, my boy, how are you?" andhe slapped him on the back of a fadedready made coat with a capital assumptionof good-fellowship.

"Veil, I was all r-i-g-h-t. Vot's de mad •der mit you ?"

"Look here, old fellow, I made a littlebet about you just now; ha, ha ! It's a cap-ital joke."

"Urn !" said Strassberger. "Veil ?""Yes, I just bet $10 with Smithy that I

could borrow $50 of you to-day.""Feefty tollar!""Yes, that was the amount.""Und you bet ten ?""That's what I put up.'1"Veil, now look here my friend" (in a

Chief Newell says he has instructedhis subordinates to destroy every slingshot found in possession of the street gamin,and where said individuals are of a respect-able age, to chuck them Immediately in thecalaboose.

Wyandotte Herald: The wretched daysof the war are over, thank God, but someof the reminiscences of the evil hour arevery funny. Many a noble patriot con-tinued his business as usual, keeping asharp eye on the possibilities of an armycontract, and at the same time fought, bledand died on the victorious field—by proxy.A business man, the chief man of a thriv-ing country village, had been drafted. Thenews was not altogether a pleasant sur-prise, and his buxom, blooming wife wasiuthe agony of sorrow. She dreamed of gorybattles and wicked cannon-balls that tookgood men's heads on', and hospital-, and allsoils of "ghastly" things. One day a stran-ger knocked at her gate, and in the mildesttones said: "Your husband has been draft-ed '-" "Vis," sobbed the woman, using thecorner of her apron as a receptacle for hertrais. "Well, I have come to offer myselfas a substitute," said the stranger.

A Desolate Historical Spot.

Yorktown, which has a new interest toall the people of the land, at this time, isnot reached by railway and is off the lineof progress. Some day it may revive itsold time prosperity ; at least it ought to be-come more accessible as a point for futurepilgrimage. Before the revolution thetown was quite an emporium, the onlyport from which the Virginia plantersstripped their potatoes to Kngland. Balti-more and Norfolk gradually reduced it byoompetition. Some two centuries ago wefirst heard of it as one of the few outpostsor forts in the colony. In 172."> it was thecenter of a thriving county—an Episcopalparish with sixty communicants with achurch. Williamsburtr, the capital, withits house of burgesses and growing college,attracting thither the wisdom and fashionof the dominion, was scarce a dozen milesaway. Until Cornwallis stationed himselfthere, Yorktown had escaped the ravagesof war on the Virginia coast, anil after ilssurrender It still contained about 71) house-,not more than two or three having beenwholly destroyed. Fifteen years later ithad not extended its limit, and we find Itspopulation composed of negroes numberingabout 800 souls. The last war, it neeilhardly be said, left it In a depressed condi-tion, almost beyond recovery, and to-day itcontains only about800Inhabitants, amongwhom are to be found but few descendantsof the ancient proprietors. Ill fact it seemsto be the lot of Yorktowu that the more itbeconio a hi.-toiical spot, the less it be-comes anything else.

The President's Last Hoars.

From the daily papers we take tbe fol-low ing descriptions of the last hours of thel.ile I'n -tilled! ( ->i i-fi«dil •

.hidjre Advocate. General Swaim, whohas been with President OarfleM continu-ously since he was shot, aud who was theonly one with the president when he com-menced sinking last ni";lit, makes the fol-lowing statement: It was my night to«alcli with the president. 1 hail beenwith him a good deal of the time from .'io'clock in the afternoon. A few minutesbefore 111 o'clock I left Col. Kix-kwel]. withwhom I had been talking for some min-utes, in the lower hall and went upstairs tothe president's room. Qaentering 1 foundMis. Garlield sitting hy his bedside. Therewere no other ptfrSCttM in the room. I saidto her how is everything ":oine;. She n -plied "He is sleeping nicely." I then said"1 think you had better go to bed and rest."I asked her what bad been prescribed totake during the night. She replied she did

know, that she had given him milkpunch at 8 o'clock. I then said, "it j onwill wait a moment I will go into the (ioc-toctois' room and see what is to be "rivenduring the uight." She then said, "thereis beef tea down stairs. Daniel knowswhere to get it." I then went into the doctor- room. 1 found Dr. Miss there andasked him w hat was to be given durini; thenight, l ie answered, "I think 1 had betterti\ up a list and will briny; it in to you very

1 think I went hark LntnftWtfrwtion with Mrs. Garfield. She felt of thepresident's hand and laid her hand on thepresident's forehead ami said, "he seems tolie in good i dition," and passed out ofthe room. I immediately felt his hands.feet and knees, I thought that his knees-reined a little i 1 and got a llannel clothheated at the fire aud laid it over hislimbs. I also heated another cloth and laidit over his right hand and then sat down inthe chair beside his bed. I was hardlyseated wtou Dr. Boynton came in and feltthe president'.- pul-e. 1 asked him how itseemed to him. lie replied, "It is not asstroiiL' as it was in the afternoon, but veryeood." I said, "He seems to be doing well.""Yes," he answered, and passed out. liewas not in the room more than two min-utes. Shortly after this the presidentawoke. As he turned his head on waking1 arose and took hold of his baud. 1 waion the left hand side of the bed a* he lay.I remarked. "You have hud a nice, com-loi table sleep." He then said, "Oh, Swaim,this is terrible paid," placing his righthand on his breast above the region of theheart. I asked him could I do anythingtoi1 him. He said, "Some water.'' 1 went'" "" .-ther side ot t >t** iju.m ,,,..1 ,.about an odriec ana a half of Polandwaterinto a glass and <;ave him to drink. Hetook the glass in his hand, 1 raising hishead as usual, and drank the water verynaturally. I then handed the glass to thecolored man Daniel who came in duringthe time I was getting the water. After-wards 1 took a napkin and wiped his fore-bead as be usually perspired on awakening.He then said: "Oh, Swaim, this terriblepain ! Press your band on it." 1 laid tinhand on bis chest. He then threw botrbauds up to tbe side and about on a linewith his head and exclaimed: "Oh, Swaim,cunt you stop this?" and again, "Oh.Swaim," I -aw him looking at me with astaring expression. I asked him if he wassuffering much pain. Receiving no answer1 repeated the question with a like result.1 then concluded he was dying or havinga severe spasm and called to Daniel whowa.- at the door, to tell I>r. Bliss and .Mis.(iarlield to come in immediately, andglanced at the small clock hanging on tbechandelier nearly over the foot of his bed,and saw that it was 10 minutes past 10o'clock. Dr. Miss came in within two orthree minutes. I told Daniel to brinir theHght, a lighted candle which usually satbehind the screen near the door. Whenthe light shone full on tbe president'- laceI saw that he was dying. When Dr. Blisscame in a moment later I said. "Doctor.have you any stimulants- He seems lo bedying." -He took bold of his wrist as iffeeling for his pulse and answered, "Yes heIsdyLng." I then said to Daniel, "Rutlandamuse the house." At that moment Col.Rockwell came in, when Dr. Bliss said letii.- rub his limbs for a very few moments..Mrs. Garfield came in and said, "Whatdoes this mean V" and a moment afterwardexclaimed, "Ob, why am I made to sufferthis cruel wrong?" At 10£0 the sacrificewas coniplcctii. He breathed his lastcalmly and peacefully.

Written for the COUKIEK.

' He's dead! " was Hashed from town to town,\\ itfa lightning speed the **d news hastened on

And hearts that hujK.-1'ul laid them down.Awoke to realise all hope was gone.

I' ' He'i if one I " are words on every tongue.Ana crushing sorrow reigns o*er ail;

A whole world** tears, like drops of dew amongThe leaves, grow radiant on his sombre pall.

Ah I Death and Fate must sometimes cruel seem —The blossoms of our hearts they rudely press ;

And iu their awful presence, like a dreara,Life's fondest hopes will vanish into nothingness.

A nation weeps 1 Its tear-drops start!Has man e'er gazed upon a grander scene —

Where myriad hearts beat like one heart,And throb together in their sorrow keen ?

The loving mother and the patient wife,God strengthen in this trying hour 1

When hope departs and drear seems life.And dark clouds o'er their p.ithway lower.

He was our friend—each feels his loss —A nation's sadness is our sadness too;

And sorrow steals with silent flight acrossThe boundless foaming waste of oceans blue.

The student, scholar, patriot, statesman — he!From poverty to grandeur did he rise,

By his firm will and firmer arm to be" * • brightest star in all this nation's skies.

Thus liVCll the ticro, —tliua In, Jt»_vl !And thus, to-day, we meet to pour

Our tears together side by sideInto his grave,—and all is o'er.

But fnithful memory with her tender handWill guard the tlowers that we have planted there,

Till they by loving zephers gently fannedWill sanctify our sorrows aud her care.

Prof. F. C. Irish, of this city, will open adancing school In Jackson on Oct. 4th, withextremely favorable prospects.

Chris. T. Ponnelly has received the ap-pointment of delivery agent for the Ameri-can express company in this city.

Mrs. Amelia Hayes of Detroit has com-menced suit for |25,000 damages, for allegedmalpractice, against Dr. Donald Maclean,of this city.

W. A. Bunting has been given the posi-tion of night operator at the M. C. 1{ R.depot. He has been in the Geddes officetor some time.

Last Thursday night Miss Rosa McCourt,for 35 years a resident of this place, died ather home on N. Main street, at the ad-vanced age of 84 years.

Last Monday Hon. A. J. Sawyer receiveda telegram from Corning, N. Y., statingthat his sister, Mrs. Sarah Smith wasdangerously ill from paralysis.

A young lad named Len Powell, fell outof a tree last Sunday while out in thewoods, and broke his right arm Dr. Smithset it for him and he is now doing well.

Our fanners will do well to rememberthat at the coming 33d annual fair theWashtenaw county agricultural and horti-cultural society, offers $30,000 in premi-ums. Isn't it worth while to compete forsome of them. ^^

IThe southeastern Michigan bee keeper's

association will meet at the court house onthe Oth of October, the week of the countyfair, at 9 o'clock a. m. Other meetingsmay be held during the week if desired.•*rof. Steere will attend.

Mr. James Murphy, who has addressedthe reform club meetings in Ypsilantt andDixboro, the past two Sundays, will talkon the subject of temperance iu the reformclub rooms, in this city, Sunday afternoonnext, commencing at 3 o'clock sharp.

It seems that a sidewalk suit against ourcity is talked of. Mrs. Nellie Bailey, of thiscity, was seriously injured the other day,it is asserted, by falling through a hole in asidewalk lying in front of a lot owned byMrs. Lucy W. S. Morgan, In the fifth ward.

The pulpit of the Unitarian church willbe occupied for the next two Sundays(Sept. 25th, and Oct. 2nd,) by the Rev. H.H. ISarber, of Boston, editor of the Unita-rian Review, in exchange with Rev. Mr.Sunderlaml. Services morning and even-ing.

An exchange hits the nail oi> the head,thus: "When the press of this country willdo one-half the gratuitous advertising for awulnwed seamstress that it will for an im-moral actress, a great start will be madetoward burnishing up the jewel of consis-tency."

Since the trains have commenced run-ning regularly north of this city, they haveproved of great convenience to the lowertown people. As there is a depot in the

ward, people can ride over and do theirpping and ride back again, thereby

saving a long walk.

Just before Rev. Dan R. Shire left Salinefor the annual conference, his horse got

Itired of living and shuffled off this "mortalIcoU." Directly after that event represen-tatives from the Lodi reform club called

lupon him and left $30, as a present from[that organization.

L. D. James telegraphs that he and Boothwill put up a new building if necessary toretain the postoftiee, and Manly & Hamil-ton agree to duplicate the Lansing office iit will be any inducement to the govern-nent. A new postofflce will be the out-

come, any way.

And now John Morgan, who was arrest-ed on a charge of (ill-tapping, placed inail, escaped with three other prisoners,

was caught, brought back, and a reward offlO.OO paid for his return, has been dis-charged. The question is, was the fellowworth the reward 'i

Next Friday evening, at 7:30, there willheld at the court house, a meeting lo

naki: arrangements for the sanitary con-vention to be held in this city under theauspices of the state board of health sometime next winter. All interested in thesanitary condition of the city are invited.

Dr. 8. B. Parsons has purchased the lotcorner of Fifth and Washington street-, offthe old Grenville homestead, for $2,000,and has moved the office which he has oc-cupied so long at the corner of Huron andFifth streets, upon the same. We believhe intends the erection of a residence nextseason.

Adjutant-General Robertson has issued10 order for all the companies chosen to atlend tho Yorktown Centennial celebration,to assemble at Jackson on the 13th proxThis is done that the companies may all bein readiness to go on the loth, and also thatthey may have an opportunity of drillingtogether.

The members of Company A aru drillingevery night, and intend to at least provethemselves equal to the best. Capt. Manlytells us thai this company is the only onein the state which has strictly kept up itsorganization and met every drill night asrequired by law. Perhaps this fact hasalso weighed a little in its favor.

Col. John L. Burleigh is to appear before a Washtenaw county audience for thefirst time, at Ypsilanti, next Wednesdayevening, the 2Sth inst., iu his favorite role,Othello, the Moor of Venice. Undoubtedlymany of our citizens will go down to hearliim. He is meeting with good successthroughout the state, and very kind criti-cisms.

The amount of beauty added to the highschool yard by the new stone walk in front,and the tearing down of the old high fence,which hid the beauty of the place, is verygreat. One would hardly believe it madesuch a difference. It seems too bad thatthe school board didn't feel rich enough tocontinue the stone walk on the north and

The next regular meeting of the Wash-tenaw county medical society will be he.U.1at Ayres' hotel, in the village of .Milan, onWednesday, Sept. 2«th, 1881, at 10 o'clocka. m. As this will be the first meeting ofthe society ever held in Milan, it is hopedevery member will endeavor to be presentand assist in making this one of the mostinteresting and profitable meetings everheld. ^ ^ _ _ _

Next Thursday, the 29th inst., at twoo'clock p. in., is the date and time fixed forthe dedication of the new house of worshipjust completed by the Baptist society of thiscity. Dr. S. A. Graves, of Grand Rapids,who was the pastor of this society overthirty years ago is announced for an ad-dress, and it is also hoped to secure theRev. Dr. John M. Gregory, whom manyof our citizens will remember, for the even-ing's discourse.

Miss Julia A. King, for the last four yearssuperintendent of the Charlotte schools,and previous to that preceptress of theFlint high school, has been appointed pre-ceptress of the normal school at Ypsilanti,in place of Miss Ruth Hoppin, resigned.Miss King is one of the best educators inthe state, and in securing her services thestate has chosen wisely and well. If thereis a fit successor in the state to Miss Hop-pin, Miss King is undoubtedly that one.

Thought we had punctured all the windbags that had filled themselves up on theEvening News man's gas, but here is onewe missed some way, from the Mt. Clem-ens Monitor:

Tliu scribe of the Ann Arbor COUBIRR is hitterly reviled bynis brother editors for acceptingm<l acknowledging a string of sun rish. The.sufellows evidently don't know how to prepareaun flsh. They labor under the Impressionthat tbe acales should be removed and the re-mainder cooked. Not so: the remainder should!>•• removed aud scales cooked. TueHe are byfar the most luscious part of lue sun flsh, andwhen parboiled for a month and frledin asafcet Ma, maku a dish fit for—an editor.

All places of business should be closedon Monday next. There should be a gen-eral observance of the day. We regretthat any procession is to form or that anygreat outside demonstration is to be made,for the following reason, that all who come

in the procession will not be able to get intothe church as it will be filled an hour be-fore services commence. If the weather ispleasant a platform should be built infront of the court house so that all can seeand hear. ^_^__^_

Last Monday the Detroit, Hillsdale &Southwestern R. R. passed into the handsof the Michigan Southern & Luke ShoreR. R., or in other words, into the control ofMr. Vanderbilt. If Mr. V. should chooseto buy up the Eel River & 111. R. R., andthen build a short line from Milan to Tren-ton, to connect with the Canada SouthernR. R., it might possibly hurt Detroit a little.Such a line would cover considerable ofthe territory reached by the Detroit & But-ler branch of the Wabash.

We are indebted to the eastern Michiganagricultural and mechanical society fojcomplimentary ticket to their tenth annualfair to be held in the city of Ypsilanti, onthe 28th, 29th and 30th Inst., next Wednes-day, Thursday and Friday, As our Ypsi-lanti friends always get up a line exhibition,it will be worth while for any of our peo-ple interested in such things to go downand see it. Ann Arbor ought to send downa good sized delegation, and then in turnthe Ypsilanti people should send a delega-tion up here, and by so exchanging courte-sies the people of Washtenaw county might,possibly, find out how strong they reallywere—united—as they ought to be.

The work of the M. E. Conference atPort Huron, as far as it effects appointmentsin this county is summed up as follows :Rev. Wm. J. Campbell, formerly of Dexter, is made presiding elder of the district;Rev. John Alabaster is returned to AnnArbor; Rev. Wm. George, Dexter; Rev.I. N. Elwood,Ypsilanti; Rev. H. C. North-rop, Chelsea; Rev. Mr. Stank, Dixboro;Rev. J. C. Wortley, Saline; Rev. Mr.Pierce, Sharon ; Rev. Mr. Combs, Man-chester; Rev. D. W. Gibberson, Lima;Rev. Aaron R. Laing, Milan and OakvillcRev. B. H. Hedger, Salem and Northfleld ;Rev. Thos. Seelye, Augusta ; WhitmoreLake and Hamburg to be supplied.

The Toledo and Ann Arbor It. R. Co.have concluded to locate their depot on alot of ground between William and Jell'er-son streets, directly west of the residenceof 8. Wood, the old W. S. Maynard home-stead. The location is not convenient.The hill ascending to Main street from thislocal ion. either upon William or Jeffersonstreets is so very sleep that vehiclescan not, with any safety, be driven over it,and those driving to or from the depot willhave to go on Liberty and then south onSecond street. It is far away from thebusiness locality also, and nearly a milefrom the M. C. R. B. depot. A locationbetween Ann and Huron streets wouldhave been far preferable, and much MMpleasing to the people patronizing the road.

A mild wiuter is predicted by meteoroU-sts. As-the excessive heat of this sum-

mer is attributed to the increase of solarradiation, and that increase is due to vio-eat disturbances in the sun's cromosphere,

where spots of magnitude, following aperiod of quiescence, began to show them-selves in May and have continued since, it\a argued that the temperature in arcticlatitudes is, and will continue to be, aboveaverage, and that comparatively mild cur-rents of air will be wafted down upon usduring the winter months. But what arewe lo look forward to in the summer of

a it the return of tbe "spot period" nowlevelops so mad) solar energy? The coun-

try is now so pan lied and brown that itjustilies the Advent monomaniacs in theexpectation that it will be burned up inNovember.

1 Ye local" received a letter from a friendof his youth a few days since In which oe-cured this sentence : "I often get the bluesunnecessarily, and borrow trouble aboutnothing. You have your children to takeup your time, while I have 'hobbies.'"There is one of the best termons in the few-est words, we have ever heard. Of coursewe understand that it is not fashionable tohave 'families', now-a-days, but neverthe-less, those who do have them, tuHill thelaws of God and nature. The road is some-times hard, and the days often dark, for theparents, yet there is something to continu-ally sustain and cheer. Children havebound together more families, kept mor*men from trouble of various kinds, andbeen the real cause of more heroic exertionson the father's part especially, than anyother one thing on earth. How often ua\ emen, when tempted to err, stopped, andthought of their children, and vowed neverto do a thing to bring disgrace upon them ?This love for the helpless little human be-ings placed in our keeping, has caused thesalvation of many a man, and secured thehappiness of many a woman.

The manner in which the Dexter Leaderman brings us to task for the way we choseto punctuate our sentences, reminds us ofa young man who once upon a time, soughti teacher's certificate. Upon going beforethe township school inspectors, who atthat time examined the candidates foreachers' positions, almost the firstquestion

asked him was: "Into how many principal>arts is Knglish grammar divided V' The

answer came promptly: "four," "Whatue they v" asks the pedagogic interlocutor.Or'-tho-graf'-fy, et'-y-mo-lo'-gy, suine'-

ax,and pro so'dv." answers the candidate,(giving the accent on the syllables as indi-ated.) The answer had the merit of being

eoirect, (when oorraotlv sne.lled) but thepronunciation was so villainous that thenspectors refused to give him a certificate.What the Lender man says may be all rightenough, but the practice of his own preach-ing is so unusual that his criticism falls,larmless. For instance, this is a literal ex-

tract from the article mentioned, where hindeavors to instruct us how to write cor-

rectly: "Remember that none is a contrtotiction lor no one, and so In the singularlumber, and you ought not to say 'None

of us are perfect.1'' We took the liberty o:italicising one word. Comment would beentirely superfluous. "None of us it per-fect '" Ha ! ha ! How funny ! Lest thistciu be not properly punctuated, accordingto the above individual's notion, weappenda number of punctuation and commercialmarks, allowing him the privilege of ar-ranging them to suit himself. ! ? : ' ! , .

Wants to Kuow.

Kditor r,,,,n,r: Will you kindly tell meby what authority our faithful (?) city mar-shal inarched the poor Kalian, with hUhand organ and monkey, off to jail, onMonday afternoon of this week? liebut in run,<j a lew honest pennies, and atthe Mtme time altonling vast amu-cinciit tothe children, who seldom have an opportu-nity of watching the funny ways of themonkey. If one of thecity IHWS was transgressed, might I suggest that the offenders

f another law should occupy a cell in closeproximity with the poor Italian, and hisItoorcr monkey, for on the morning of that

me day, I saw two men on one of themost public streets, struggling to hold eachiheruptill they might reach a near saloon,

there to take the last drink, that made them—how much more offensive than the or-<an-grinder!

Again, may I ask why our orderly mar-shal docs not meander, of an evening,iround the old savings bank corner, anddisperse the crowd of rowdies who congre-

ate, and completely obstruct the walkthere, making low remarks for respectableladies to hear as they pass, as well as com-pelling them to dodge squirts of tobaccojuice, and showers of peanut shells.

CONSISTENCY

Greasy, but not Gassy.

Nearly or quite all of the residents or AUII\ r l w t r ) , « - r o i - c c c n t l y 1.. . n l . i • - u ^ l i i f a c e tO

face with the fact that if they had butter tospread upon their bread they must pay forit. One matron last week obtained a goodlot rather cheap, in exchange for some notquite so good. She had been going therounds of the groceries in the vain searchof the lacteal product, when happeninginto a Huron street store where they usu-ally kept the article, she inquired if theyhud any good butter.

'Yes, ma'am," replied the vender of ta-ble perishables and kitchen plunder, "somethat is extremely nice; just bought of afanner] as yellow as gold and sweet ashoney."

Please send me five pounds," said thelady, handing out a $10 bill in payment-she got but little cluinge back.

Then she went home as elated over theevent as a boy who had just popped a passer-by in the eye with his putty blower.When supper came she met her husbandwith the sweetest of sweet smiles, the chil-dren, too, missed the usual sharp twist ofher tongue and came confidingly to herside to receive the first caress and kiss formonths; and all because of the butter.

But, alas, how our fondest anticipation,our brightest dreams, are sometimes doom-ed. Each one at the table spread theirbread with an extra layer of that butter;each took a bite hurriedly, go long had itbeen since they had tasted any so promis-ing, and then ! ?!!! ?•«•! ???! {+-, whichfaintly represents the exclamations, inter-rogations etc., following the first mouthful.It was the worst tasting stuff that had everbeen placed In human mouths. It mighthave been made from animal fat tried outof the dead mules killed by the forest fires,llavored with green persimmons and skunkjuice, if tbe palate was any judge.

The way that package of yellow coloredoleomargarine was hurried into a paper;and the way that matron gingerly held thestuff In her hands; and the way she hast-ened with it to the store, is unnecessary forus to tell. The grass did not grow underher feet until she reached hor destination.The mnn who made the sale wasn't there.The clerk protested; said she must be mis-taken ; that they had not hud any butter olIhe kind in the store, etc., etc. But when;i WOtnsn Is riled, no one man can withstandthe storm, and the clerk happened to bealone, so he took the butter back and ex-changed it for some that could be swallow-ed, and the lady departed homeward, fullysatisfied thnt one grocer would never againattempt to sell her bad butter.

Happening on the same street the nextd,\y she saw two individuals standing intwo store doors, said stores being only oneremove from each other. The first one wasthe poor Clerk Who took the butter backand exchanged it; the other was the manwho originally sold her the grease. Nottill then did she realize what she had dono.In her haste the diy before she had gotinto the wrong store. Conscience mitten,

she rushed to the original seller and toldlim what she had done, (instead of keeping

still about the error, aud obliging him'also to give her some good butter, therebysecuring double revenge,) and asked him togo and rectify the mistake. But the hard-icarted wretch wouldn't do it. He said theoke was a food one on his neighbor, nndle thought it would keep,and the best thingthey both could do would be not to say any-thing about it.

And so the poor clerk has never yet hadthe weight of that indignant woman's wordsifted from his shoulders, nor has lie beenible to dispose of the returned "butter,"even for axle-gretise. And his employers innocently and unknowingly so much

out. This is a true story.

The News In the City.

Tuesday morning was not a happy onefor the inhabitants of our city. It was notuntil the arrival of the Detroit dailies, atabout 7J^ o'clock, that the people reallyknow ot tbe death <>f President Garfleld,and when the news reached us beyond adoubt, it fell like a knell. The people, al-though expecting the event at any moment,still were not wholly prepared for it, andthey went about as if stunned and withlearts of stone, and countenances betoken-ng the keenest sympathy forthe murderedruler. That the gallant tight made by thepresident had placed hope in the breast ofnearly every one, could be plainly seen bythe expression of countenance when in-ibrmed of the result. The struggle was anoble one, against fearful odds, and de-served a better ending, lint it was not tobe.

President Garfleld's assassination was soheartless, so causeless, so void of any mo-tive ou the part of the fiend who caused it,that a sickening feeling of loathing andibhorence, mingled with that of sorrow,permeated all classes.

Upon the confirmation of the sad newsall the bells of the city were tolled, that inthe courthouse being the first, soon followerby the bell of every church in thecity, alsothose of the high school aud university.The sound they gave out was a dreary andsad one to the ears of our people. Soonafter llajrs appeared at half-mast upon thevarious llajc staffs surmounting public andprivate buildings. Then commenced theappropriate draping of our buildings withemblems of mourning, and long beforenoon there was not a yard of black goodsto be obtained in the city.

The court house was tastily draped aboutthe entrances; while the drapery in thefommon oouncll room was quite elaborate.Among the other public buildings werethe high school, post office, agriculturalhalt, CoritlEK office, armory (Frank Hang-sterfer's), the stores Jof Wines & Worden,Bach & Abel, Mack & Schinid, Joe T.Jacobs, A. L. Noble, Sheehan & Co., D. F.Schairer, Wm. Wagner, S. Hendrickson& Son, the savings Imuk, the 1st nationalbank block,Cook's hotel, Rinsey & Seabolt,etc., etc., etc. Some of the draperies be-ing very heavy and denoting excellenttaste.

COUNCIL MEETING.

At 10:30 o'clock the common council con-vened in extra session to take appropriateaction upon the occasion. Afterthe emblemsof mourning were tastily arranged about theroom, the meeting was called to ordernearly a full council being present. AidBesimer presided in the absence of themayor. Upon motion of City AttorneyKnowlton, the following preamble and re-solutions were adopted, after which themeeting adjourned:

WHKKEAS, The great national calamitywhich the people have fora lew mouths hopedand prayed might be averted, has at last comeupon as In the death of our Into president,James A. Oarneld, whose long suffering elicit-ed the sympathies of both continents, andwhose death Is this day mourued by the wholeworld, therefore.

Resolved, That we, the common council ofthe city of Ann Arbor, recommend that thecitizens of this place display from their busi-ness houses fit emblems of mourning, andotherwise duly observe the nation's loss, untilthe Juneral obsequies are closed.

Resolved, That upon the day that shall be des-ignated as the funeral day of our late president,I he several religious societies are requested tohold union services,and that thecivll authori-ties, the military, the fire companies, and the Jseveral societies and organlzatfonn of this city Gare requested to form Iu procession and attend Ithe funeral services at such place as may be]hereafter designated.

Resolved, That Mayor John Kapp, Aid. T. J.IKeech, W. D. Harrlman, Jacob F. Schuh and|Joe T. Tacobs he appointed a committee of ar-rangements, and that representatives aud or-lganlzatlons of this city are requested to report Ito and confer with this committee.

THE SCHOOLS.

No session of the high school was held Jduring the day, many of the pupils assist-ling in decorating the building. In the af-lternoon the grammar school department!was also excused.

The world moves, and woman moveswith it. At least that's what we infer fromthe statement that two women were admit-ted to citizenship, a few days since in thecity of Chicago. They were French wo-men. The first instance of the kind onrecord.

Adventures of rV. L. Howard, the Young

Explorer, in Iceland.

The < hicajro Times of last Friday con-tained the following incident* of the secondsummer trip of Mr. William Lee Howardof this city, son of Mark Howard, Esq., tothe interior of Iceland. The account wasespied from London by oue of the assistanteditors of the Times :

William Lee Howard, of Hartford, Conn.,who left Lcilh. Scotland, last April, to ex-plore Iceland to satisfy a longing for ad-venture, reached here last night. In aninterview he said that all the members ofthe expedition were in good health, inspite of the hardships encountered, ller-dubreid, which Captain Burton tried invain to reach in 1S72, was thoroughly ex-plored on July 11, the txjp being reachedafter thirty-eight hours of the most danger-ous climbing. Howard was alone duringthe last nine hours of the ascent, the onlyother man of the party who would makethe attempt being disabled by a fallingboulder, l ie found the mountain composedprincipally of plagionite, covered with athick layer of basalt. The summit wascovered with a layer of lava, which he es-timates at not over 75 years old, proving itit a volcano and upsetting all previouscon-clusions and theories of eminent geoloKtstSThis is the lirst time a human l>cing hasever reached this region, the natives say.The island was twice crossed. He thinksthe sandy region in the interior a glacialdeposit dating back to the glacial period.The party hud several narrow escapes fortheir lives. They crossed enormous quick-sands by making a floor from blankets,tents, eto. They have discovered manyfacts of the greatest geographical value,including a lake excelling any hithertoknown in Iceland, with wonderful water-falls and caves whose basaltic formationsoutrank Kingal's cave or the Giant's Cause-way. They nave succeeded in taking andbringing home photographic negatives ofe v e r y M r t w g ,.1 ; . . . — ; . 1 1 . , , , . , n l >r(>es a tonce as a delegate to the meeting of thegeographical association at Venice and thenreturns to the United States to resume hismedical studies in New York. Mr. How-ard says icebergs will be from one to twomonths late this year in coming downfrom Iceland.—Hartford Courant.

She sawthe little thing had pulled a chair up infront of the telephone and stood upon itwith the piece pressed against tbe side ofher head. The earnestness of the childshowed that she was in no playful mood,and this was the conversation that themother heard while the tears stood thick inher eyes, the little one carrying on both
