I now have a selection of tlie new Souvenir Spoons of tiic birthplace of JAMES HLA1NE.
The picture ol old homo and birthplace of tho groat statesman is pronounced a perloct oue as well a9 his likeuess on the handle of the spoon, making it a much sought after souvenir. lion. .lames Gillespie lilaiue was born :Jan. *l, 1»0. in the house represented by the enpnviup in the bowl of the spoon.
His early childhood days were spent about this home, playiUL* in the well kept yard end irnziug-at the meadows, steamboats on the Monongahala river that so frequently •..-.went by. This old home of the lilaiue family was a be lutitul oue in its day, aud now thai it is fast going to pieces, everybody will want something to remember it as the birthplace of such an eminent man. as the history ol to day cannot be repeated during tho coming years without the mention of Mr. Blaine's name.

The Pay Train To-Night.
The above beautiful comedy drama will be produced at Music Hall to-night, and we have no hesitancy in saying that a rare treat is in store for our theatre goers. The company is a most excellent one headed by the charming Bottbbrette Miss Florence Bindley, who is supported by a cast of rare excellence. The scenic elfects are marvelous and must bo seen to be appreciated several of the most prominent ones are, tho interior of a'coal mine in full operation, the realistic boiler explosion and wreck of the incline plane truck, which dashes to the stage from the dome filling the stage with smoke and debris as natural as the real thing itself the most phenomenal of all is the railroad effect, a full train of cars dashes across the stage at full .speed, and is uncoupled in full view of the audience: the pay car is immediately lighted up, showing the action in the car the company carries a full electric dynamo for this purpose. This drama is conceded by press and public to be the most realistic of all mechanical dramas. ..
Fire at the Trestle.
Last night a freight train set tire to dry branch trestlejind the fire company was called out to extinguish the (lames The fire had gained considerable headway among the dry timbers, but the damage did not interfere with the running of trains. The bridge men arrived this morning to make repairs. It does seem that this will never be filled up until after some awful accident occurs at this point. Wm. Thornberrv discovered the lire.

"OUft I'LAG IS STILL THERE.
But Some Person is Still Throwing Clubs At "Old Glory"— .Resolutions Adopted.
A private letter lias been received from Miss Emma Cviiner, the now famous school toucher of Clark township, in which she says that the tlag was removed from the staff on the belfry, and nailed to the gate post of the place where she boarded last Sunday morning. She now has the Hag on a hickory pole, oije end of which is sticking down the water spout at tho end of the school house, and the Hag floating from the other end. Ono of the men who is implicated in tho affair, yet says that it shall come down and he tells the school children this as ho passes along tho road. Some person has been throwing clubs at the Hag, during the night time, as can be seeu by taking a look at tho roof of the building. Miss Conner demands to know why a certain man, who is vowing that the Hag shall come down again, "does not come and tahe it down vtliile sh: is there!" Miss Conner is receiving letters from prominent persons all over the country, urging her to stand firm in her determination to keep the flag on the school house.
The joint committees of the G. A. R., S. of V. and P. O. S. of A. have held a meeting and adopted the following preamble and resolutions:
WiiEitEAS, Lawless ruffians ruthlessly tore down the Hag vhicli floated over the school house in district No. 9, Clark township, Montgomery county, Indiana, on the 25th day of October, 1091, there fore
liesolretl, that McPherson Post, No. 7. G. A. R., Chas. M. Travis Camp, No. 24, S. of P., and Washington Camp, No. li, Indiana, denounce in unstinted terms the vile action of said ruffian as cowardly. unpatriotic and treasonable. liesolvt'tl, that we heartily endorse the action of the teacher. Miss Emma Connor, in her heroic defense of the Hag. and defiance of the vandals, aud our support, our time, and our lives, it necessary, in defense of that tlag and its heroic defender.
Resolved, that we invite the co-opera-tion of all good citizens, regardless of creed or party affiliations, to encourage patrotism in the rising generation, and to that end we urge upon tho proper authorities the propriety of having a Hag on every school house in the land, and that the youth be instructed in the principle of our government, and be taught to serve the flag of our fathers.
The joint committee will meet on Monday evening at the P. C. S. of AT hall, and complete arrangements for presenting a beautiful silk Hag lo Miss Connor, due notice of which will be given.
Goes to the Asylum.
About 3 o'clock this afternoon, John W. Doak entered tlia First National Bank of this city, and called for Mr. Eads. Before the latter could be summoned, however, he began talking incoherently about a plot to murder him and finally running behind the counter picked up a heavy chair and defied any one to touch liini. It was at once seen that he was violently insane nd the police were hastily summoned. He was finally overpowered and manacled, although, he fought like a demon,and five men were were scarcely able to hold him. This terrible event has cast a gloom over the entire city, as John is universally recognizcd as one of the most premising young attorneys of the city and is in every respect an honorable and exemplary voung man. It is hoped that his affliction is only a temporary brain disorder, brought on by too severe application and that with rest and quiet he will soon be himself again. Pitrix, (111.,) IJi'rtron.
Mr. Doak rallied yesterday morning and was e'early conscious of his condition, weeping like a child and lamenting his misfortune. At his own request he was adjudged insane and taken to the asylum at Kankakee, where it is thought he will quickly bo cured by the proper treatment.
Most Pleasantly Entertained. Last evening Miss Anna Milligan received about sixty friends at her home in honor of Sam P. Johns and wife, of Sedalia, Mo. Dainty and elegant refreshments were served and the occasion proved a most enjoyable and pleasant one for all who were present, as a special featuro was introduced, the jwpular "peanut hunt." Each guest is provided with a handsome satin sack and at a given signal all go to hunting peanuts which have been secreted in the various nooks and corners of the house. Tho first prizes hist night wero won by Miss Mayine Somervillo and M. S. Jernegan, and the booby prizes by. Prof. King and Miss Manette Wolfe. The guests remained until a late hour' and departed highly pleased with their entertainnien' by. the charming hostess and her guests.
