Mr. Blaine gave Ibe collegians of Ann Arbor some very good advice yesterday. Later in the day he entered Indiana at South Bend where be was given a foretaste of the welcome that awaits him in this state.

The Express in its capacity as a gatherer of news is constantly beiag improved. This morning it furnishes all the news from abroad, the speeches and receptions of Mr. Blaine and the finding of a four-leaved clover at Rockville.

The St. Loui3 Globe-Democrat of yesterday said: Mr. Lamb, of the Terre Haute district, is another western congressman who should be left at home in company with Frank Hurd anil Bill Morrison Free trade will ruin Terre Haute, and Lamb voted with Morrison and Hurd in the last session of congress.

The Democratic presB is bitterly de nouncing the employment of United States marshals at Cincinnati. We see by the Cincinnati newspapers that over one hundred men are awaiting trial for "repeating." Other offenders are be' ing pursued and a warrant is out for a Democratic member of the legislature. No wonder there is consternation among the Democrats. It is all suggestive of the adsge about the rogue who did not have a good opinion of the law.

The Express is frequently asked to make its charges the same as prevail with other newspapers in this city. This must not be expected. When the Express fixes a price it is for value given and all advertisers are requested to examine our books to the end that they may be satisfied on this point. Were the Express to fix its rates on a basis of comparative circulation with other newsapers it would make greater increase than announced.

rOLTGAXOUS X0BM0V8. There was concluded at Salt Lake, yesterday, a trial of a son of a Mormon bishop on the charge of polygamy which furnishes additional evidence that the most rigorous measures must be adopted before this relic of barbarism is blotted out. The case was considered by the prosecution to be as strong as any that could be prepared, and yet the defense, as will be seen by the summary of the evidence, with the audacity of known criminals, is able to baffle the efforts of the representatives of the government, who are conducting the proeecution under the United States laws.

The statutes were drawn by the most skilled of our law makers yet by sheer perjury and arrogant disregard for these laws the Mormons have apparently eluded the firm grip that all the civilised world desires should be fastened upon them. The mockery of the claim that the church is primarily a religious institution was never made more plain than in the trial of this Bon of a biBhop. To save him from just punishment the mother of his second wife testified under oath that while she knew her daughter was living with Clawson yet she never inquired if a marriage ceremony had been performed. Officials of the church testified that they did not know of any records of any marriages, and in effect said that the marriage ceremony was so little regarded that adultery is in truth a more accurate teem for the relations between man and woman in the church.

And so it is. The sanctity of an oath itf not regarded. The home, the foundation of all Christian civilisation, is not known to these people In short, the chnrch is simply an institution of evil, whose object is to make the few high officials rich and powerful by extorting tithes and enforcing abject servitude among tbf jgnoragt dup«s of tbtfc duplicity.

year.

When the strange phenomenon ap peared last year some of the most re nowned scientists attributed the cause to volcanic dust from the terrestrial explosion in Java in the preceding August. There was then also observed a halo around the sun which has not since disappeared. The re appearance of the first phenomenon this year, however, is calculated to destroy the theory at first adopted.

THE MONDAY SZPSESS.

All subscribers to the Daily Express will be furnished1 to-morrow and the subsequent two Mondays with a regular issue of the Express.

The Monday Express is in a sense an experiment, a test of the feasibility of making it a permanent thing. During the last days of the campaign there should be a demand for the seventh paper in the week and by this test we will be enabled to d«tj»rmin« the Monday issue shall be continued after the election.

The basis of rates for advertising in a newspaper is circulation. The Express has not raised its rates for a year, but in that time the circulation has greatly increased. Beginning with November 1st new and higher rates will go into effect. Local notices that heretofore have been charged at ten cents a line for the first insertion and five cents for each subsequent inser tion will be charged at the rate of fifteen and ten cents. This ratio of ratee will be made on all space] advertising.

HEW YORK STATE.

At this distance we are apt to bear many exaggerated reports of the political situation in the Empire state. To the Democracy the raenlt there is conclusive of its prospects in this elections. No one disputes the statement that Cleveland can not be elected if New York costs its electoral vote for Mr. Blaine, while the latter can be elected without that state. The interest, therefore, is naturally centered .on New York.

All precedents establish the fact that the Republicans are dependent upon a sufficient majority outside of New York and Brooklyn to overcome the heavy Democratic vote in those two cities which for Tilden was 72,000 plurality and for Hancock 50,500. Our Democratic friends aie, finding much consolation in the fact that Kelly called on Cleveland in New York the other day but on that same day Kelly stated publicly that New York and Brooklyn would give Cleveland 30,000 plurality. Hancock failed to carry the state with 50,500, and Kelly's statement, therefore, is nothing more nor less than an admission of Cleveland's defeat in the state. Outside the two cities the people are thoroughly aroused, and there are the best of reasons for believing that Mr. Blaine will come to those cities with a larger vote than was cast for Garfield. The New York Tribune, discussing the outlook, sayB:

Outside the two cities the Republican vote for General Garfield was 422,064, against 350,434 for Hancock, 11,256 for Weaver, and 1,482 for Dow. Thus the Republicans had, outside the two cities, a plurality of 71 600. It is probable that the Greenback vote will be larger than 11,000, but the excess will be drawn almost wholly from the Democratic

Bide.

It is also probable

that the Prohibition vote will be larger than 1,500, and the excess will be drawn mainly from the Republican side. But we venture the prediction that the Democrats will lose more outside the two great cities by votes for Butler than the Republicans will lose by votes for St. John. In 1876 the votes outside the two cities showed a Republican plurality of 40,000. The increase of vote from 1876 to 1880 went wholly to the Republicans. There is no reason to suppose that the increase during the past fouryears has given the Democratic party any advantage outside of the two cities. There is no reason to expect that the Republicans will be found weaker than they were four years ago.

Coming to New York and Brooklyn, we find that those cities gave 72,000 plurality for Tilden, and 50,500 for Hancock. There is not an intelligent Democrat in either city who expects for his party a majority as large as Hancock had four years ago. An elaborate review in the Herald of Monday morning estimated the Republican vote in this city at 110,000, of which it assumed 20,000 would be cast for Cleveland. On this basis nearly the whole of the probable increase during the past four years is given to the Republicans. Were these figures correct it would follow that Govenor Cleveland would hardly get any plurality in this city whatever. The number of Democratic voters, from the Tammany orginization, and others, who will vote tor Mr. Blaine, will be teund at least as large as the number of Republicans who will vote against him. If he receives 110,000 votes, there are left, on the Herald's computation, only, 115,000 for Cleveland and Butler. It is unnecessary to say that the Herald's estimate is supremely foolish. But the Republicans hare reason to believe that of a probable increase of 40,000in the total vote, they will gain, on account of the antagonism of the working people to free trade, at least 25,000. This would bring their, total vote to 105,000, and to this they will add as many Democratic votes for Blaine as there will be Republican votes cast against him. On the other hand, thore are left 138 pon u. ji.iuea between the other candidates, and of these Governor Cleveland will be fortunate if he gets enough to give him any plurality.

In Brooklyn the increase for years has been steadily in favor of the Republicans. They gained 12,000 from 1876 to 1880, while the Democrats gained 4,500. Assuming that the increase during the past four years has been 17,000, there IB reason to expect that enough of it will go to the Repub lican ticket to cut down the plurality given for Hancock in Brooklyn four years ago.

Mr. Edison has grown somewhat stout these last three years, and is no longer the bony alchemist he was when he held his midnight vigils, wrestling with the obstinate battery at Menlo Park, and lunches of fortuitous pastry summoned the demon of indigestion. I asked him if he should go to Philadelphia to witness the fine electrical show there. "Yes," he said, "probably as soon as I get my new phonograph finished. I have now in the works far the finest talking-machine ever made. It is double-grooved, and will receive and utter two voices at once, and as it runs by electricity and is regulated to the desired speed, it will deliver its message exactly as it was spoken. One prime trouble with the old machine was that the pitch and accents could not be preserved, for the message was sure to be turned on and off at a different speed so that, in singing especialy, there was a constant flatting and •hanging of pitch, which produced horrible discords. This is quite remedied in the duet phonograph, and will give some important results not attained before.

From time out of mind .it has been considered leg*l for people in Scotland to marry by merely making a declaration in the presence of witnesses. But by an obsolete statute of Charles II such marriages were forbidden andde-. dared punishable. Recently a couple were brought up at the Edinburg police court for having contravened the statute by declaring themselves husband and wife before witnesses. Thev

Subject for the Sunday-school Lesson of To-day—"Solomoa'8 Choice."

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

Lesson for October 19—Subject: Solomon's Choice—I. Kings III., 8-Iff. The lesson to-day brings us to that important juncture when Solomon makes a choice which meets with the approval of God. Between the time when David gave his counsel to Solomon and the time when the latter ascended the throne there is an unknown interval of time. In that interval great changes have come. David is dead and Solomon is en throned: Adonijah has been put to death Abiathar, the priest, has been banished and Zadok placed in his stead vengeance has overtaken Joab at the altar of God Shimal has been warned that he must consider himself a prisoner in Jerusalem and it may be, though it iB not clear, that the marriage between Solomon and the princess of Egypt took place before the sacrifice at Gibeon. Gibeon was selected as the place of the great sacrifice upon the occasion of Solomon's accession, because at that place was preserved the old tabernacle, the witness of God's dealings with his people in ancient days. At Jerusalem the ark itself was, but Gibeon was the great "Bamah," or "high place." There were now two places of worship. Gibeon, where the Mosaic alter of burnt offering was, and Zion, where the ark was—hence, there were two high priesfs during the greater part of David's reign, which were reduced to one by Solomon's disposition of Abiathar.

After thanking God for his mercies to his father and to himself, Solomon sets forth his own need, urging hiB own youth and inexperience. The common supposition is, that upon the date of his accession to the throne he was little if any older than 20 years, and it was but natural that he should feel his weakness in matters of wisdom and ruling. And he felt too, the great responsibility which rested upon him in being set up over such a vast number of people to be their ruler. Under the reign of David and Solomon the Kingdom of Israel reached its greatest prosperity and extent. Solomon wanted an understanding heart one that would comprehend the circumstances that should surround him in his reign. He would need to know how to exercise judicial functions, for to judge the people was an important element in his career. That Solomon asked for what he did was in itself something which God approved, and earnest prayer is always met by His sovereign approval. A positive gift was bestowed upon Solomon in answer to bis prayer. The pre-eminence of Solomon lay in his sagacity, knowing always what was the right thing to do under all circuni stances. Goa it was who gave to Solomon all his riches and power, and all of us who poswn "y

form

What would be the choice of every believer if asked by God what He should give him? In those who go to God in prayer there should be a welldefined request placed, for the time being, above all other things. God is eyer ready to do even greater things for us than he has done if only we ask aright. All experience seems to show that the more knowledge a man accumulates, the more he knows things, the greater is his consciousness of his own ignorance. Solomon Baid be was but a little child, and so are we all in many of the things of this world wherein we may ignorantly believe ourselves to be strong men. "The greater is one's height of intellectual attainment, the broader is the horizon of his ignorance beyond." The new ruler wanted an understanding heart, an\ how vitally important to us that the same may be our portion. It is no easy thing to discern between the evil and the good, and to know, to understand, which to choose, which to shun—how much of wisdom it demands. How appropriate for us was Solomon's request, "Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart that I may discern between good and bad." The Lord was pleased with Solomon's teech, and He is ever pleased when is children come to Him in their hour of need and ask for help from Him. In the study of the lesson the plan given will be of aid: Lesson topic: Wisdom is Choosing. Lesson outline: 1. The choice presented, verses 5-8. 2. The choice made, verse 9. 3. The choice approved, verses 10-15.

GENTEEL HAIR CUTTING.

Something that Continually Agitates the Ambitious Barber. New York Sun. -f 4? "There has been a great change in the fashion of hair cutting within the past year or two," said an old German barber in a Park place shop. He was a typical German, with a red nose, a big moustache, thick speech and serious manner. He stood erect, as befitting an ex-member of the German Fifth regiment, and his highest ambition for the last twenty years has been to be a good barber. "A year or so ago," he continued, "very many men wore their hair quite long it was no uncommon thing to see men of fashion with locks curling about their ears and a plentiful shock of hair behind. Now, however, every man who has any care for appearances keeps the hair at the sides and back

good leveive from the same hand and should use it that He may be glorified thereby. The sinfulness of man is exemplified in Solomon's reign, for the wise Solomon, builder as he was of God's temple, becomes at last guilty of gross idolatry. It is probable that his death occurred when ne was about 60 years old. Though "it was a dream," yet it had been a real transaction,and the promises which had been made to him by God were fulfilled. In the burnt offerings which were offered up the victim was wholly consumed upon the altar, this being significant of the atonement for sin. Solomon and those with whom he was associated thus sought forgiveness of their sins ana pledged consecration to the Lord the king and his people gave themselves to the Lord Solomon's reign was to be conducted in the fear of God, and the people should submit to his rightful authority. In the peace offerings a portion only of the animal was burned on the altar, the priests, $s God's ministers, received a portion, and the rest was given to the one who offered the sacrifice and to his friends, to be eaten in the presence of the Lord as a sacred service, based, like the Christian symbol of the Lord's supper, upon the antecedent sacrificial atonement.

his head clipped close the

hair is shaved down until, about the ears and the neck, it is clipped as close as it is possible for the shears to take it off. It grows longer as you go neat the top of the head, and when you reach the part at the side or in the middle it is an inch or so in length. We no longer Bhave necks. I have no doubt you remember when it was quite the custom to cut a man's hair in a semi-circle behind and then shave his neck up to the point where the hair began to grow. It is a pernicious custom. It makes the hair grow in stiff bristles down to the shoulders, and if I shave a neck once the chances are I shall have to do it always. The fashion which so many young men, particularly office boys, practiced last year, of banging the hair, is no longer in Btyle, nor is it proper to brush the hair at the sides of the head forward over the ears. The majority of very fashionable customers now part their hair in the middle, or so near it that there is no telling the difference, and they brush it back from the forehead on either side, and also brush it back from the ears. But one particular point of all is to keep all that part of the hair which shows under your hat clipped close to your head on top of your head it may be as long as you choose. The locks straggling around the collar are away out of style." "What about the French method of dressing the hair, which so many men copied last year?" "That was run to death by the offlce boys and clerks, and so had to begiven up. The English model is now the one we all follow. It strikes me that the average American has no dearer ambition just now than tr present the appearance^ of an Englishman."

How

Judge Russell Stole the Emancl. ration Proclamation. Lowell Timee.

There are some very trifling events in the make-up of local history, but which are yet not without a certain degree of importance. It is possible that the first public reading of President Abraham Lincoln's emancipation proclamation in Boston may rank itself in this category, and the following is the history of the fact: The evening of the day on which the proclamation waB issued at Washington a co thereof came by telegraph to Boston Journal office, ana the same evening a meeting of Free-Soilers had assembled in Tremont temple. While the night editor of the Journal was engaged in preparing the dispatch for transmission to the composing room, Judge Thomas Russell entered the editorial sanctum, all out of breath, and inquired as to the truth of such a proclamation having been promulgated by the president, and was shown the dispatch sheets on which it was written. He begged the loan t-f them for a quarter of an hour, but this was refused, as being against all rule. The judge then seised them, and ran with all speed from the editorial room, followed by the night editor in pursuit, but was not caught. He reached the platform of the Tremont Temple, interrupted the speaking, and read the proclamation, when a scene of excitement followed which baffled description. Some talk was had about the proprietor of tile Journal (Col. Charles O. Rogers) Iming Judge Russell arrested for the theft, but this did not take place. This was the first time the proclamation was publicly read in Boston."

Chocking Traffic in Dead Bodies. Indianapolis Special. A peculiar case was decided to-day in one of the lower courts, which, if sustained by the Supreme court, will have a tendency to make the traffic in dead bodies even more dangerous than at present. About a year ago Albert Bnstow (colored) died, and was buried in one of the city cemeteries. A day or two latter his body wss found in the vault of the Eclectic Medical college, of which Dr. Abbott was the demonstrator of anatomy. Bristow's widow brought suit for damages against Abbott, and the jury promptly awarded her $2,000.

Viceroys of India.

IwndoB Truth. Of the Viceroys of India the first, Lord Canning, was Fngliwh the second, Lord Elgin, Scotch the third, l4rd Laurence, Irish the fourth,Lord Mayo, Irish also the fifth, sixth, and seventh, Lords Northbrook, Lytton and Ripon, were English. But now the appointment of Lord Dufferin reestablishes an Irishman on the viceregal throne. For some time it has been common joke in London that 'our only General." Wolaely, and "our only Ambassador," Dufferin, were both Irish. This viceroyalty of India has been, through Lord Dufferin'* whole career, his point of aspiration. It is a mistake to suppose that money is to be made, as in tne days of Clive and Hastings, or saved out of the salary of $125,000 a year in the office, but it permits the husbanding of private fortune, and Lord Dufferin's finances need repair. Of his children, the second boy most inherits the brilliant qualities of the Sheridan race. 5
