AMONG the laws passed by the last Legislature was one requiring railroad companies to blow the whistles on all engines when approaching the crossing of any public road. As these roads intersect the railroads about every quarter of a mile, the people of the State are threatened with permanent deafness should the law be complied with. An attempt to do so at Lafayette rendered the closing of the public schools necessary until the city council could get together and pass an ordinance forbidding the nuisance.

Charityfor the Call suggests that Peoria ing into a wider range of employments

THE Grant excursion to California Is weakening, since it has been learned that it will cost ea:b excursionist about $123, exclusive of meals and sleeping accommodations. In the grand army of office-seekers there are few who care to risk so much money on the mere chance of an office.

WHILB we were sitting by a comfortable fire last Sunday, the people of New York were sweltering in all the miseries of a midsummer Sunday. The Sun says "the atmosphere of the city was stifling, the sunshine blazed in the streets, and there was not air enough stirring to turn a pinwheel. A day at home for those who could escape was out of the question."

COMMENTING on the causes of Mr. Cook's unsympathetic reception in the West the Modern Argo says: "They," tbe western people, "forget that before tbey go to one of Mr. Cook's lectures, tbey should put themselves through a heroic oourse of psyoologloal gymnastics. They have no business to go to bear these lecture until they have clear and -f

ANTHONY G. COMSTOCK, a sort of selfconstitnted censor of publications, has been making efforts to organise societies in various cities for the snppression of vioe. He has recently visited Cincinnati, but did not seem to arouse much enthusiasm in the sinful Paris of America and he has been severely censured for his methods, which are thoee of a detective. He works by means of letters over an assumed name, and purchases pictures and printed matter in disguise. His methods may be questionable, and hi may be a nuisance in some respects, but certain it is that he has accomplished much good. He reports 1, at a recent meeting, that in one place 1,700 negatives of photographs had been feand and confiscated, and In another, Rochester, N. Y., 1,800,COO oopies of one vile book had been seised by him and put where they ould do no harm. It is within Oomstock'a plan of operations to get up such a public sentiment as will suppress several weekly and some daily papers that cannot now be reached by the law regulating the printIng and disseminating of unclean literature.

banks and counting rooms. There is no doubt but this tendency toward increas Ing employment In many of the lighter kinds of labor will continue and will be accelerated in proportion as women fit themselves to discharge in a competent manner the new duties that come to them. The matter is mainly in their own hands. Not many years ago the teachers of the country were nearly all men now the majority are women This change was effected by women convincing the world that they could teach as well and better than men. They proved it by doing it. Whenever they make themselves as competent to do other kinds of work they will get it to do. __________

THE UBL1C LIBRAE Y. The friends of the public library— especially those who have taken the deepest interest in its success—were not a little surprised at the action of the council, last Tuesday evening. The former council had suggested that the question of taxation be put to a vote of the people, and the voters, by a majority of 693, had said vote the tax. In the wards having the heaviest taxpayers the vote for the library was the largest. A majority of the present oouncilmen had expressed themselves in favor of the library, and some who last Tuesday voted against it, had voted and worked at the city election for it. The judiciary committee reported to the council in favor of, and the ordinance to levy the tax was put on its passage, when Mayor Havens threw in a bombshell by declaring his opposition. A vote was taken, and Coancilmen Cruft, Harris, Schloss, White and McCutcheon voted for it, while Appman Beauchamp, Clutter, Frisz, Harrison, Polk and Reagan voted against it, and it was lost.

Various are tbe excuses given by oouncilmen for changing their views. Mr. Reagan says he voted and worked for the library with the understanding that the tax would be half a mill on the 100, instead of on a dollar. This wonld make the total tax about |62! An immense library that would get! Mr. Harrison voted against it for the reason that while the city as a whole had voted in favor of the tax and be was personally in favor, the vote of his ward had been against it.

On the 5th of November Miss Duer called at Ella's honse, and when leaving, Ella passed out with her to tbe door. Some intense and passionate words passed between tbe two girls and when Ella, in answer to Miss Duer's question if she loved Miss Foster better that she, an "yes," her friend the tragic scene her pistol at

her in the mouth, and after lingering between life and death for a month, the poor girl passed away.

Miss Duer claims that the shooting was purely accidental that she wanted to kiss Ella, but after giving up the attempt, and having the pistol in her hand counting the cartridges, it went off undesignedly. This may do for skillful lawyers to hang a jury on, but it is scarcely credible in the face of Miss Hearn's statement that, when the girl pointed the pistol at her head, she gave her such fearful look that she would not forget it to her dying day.

Altogether, the affair is so singular and melancholy as hardly to be matched in history.

THE BOOM ELEMENT. If the New York Herald may be believed, General Grant will not be the next President. Though it is vigorously denied that the contest in Ohio between the friends of Taft and Foster had any reference whatever to the candidacy of General Grant, the Herald maintains, with italic emphasis, that Judge Taft's nomination would have been particularly acceptable to Grant's supporters in Ohio, and that Taft was defeated only because the supporters of Grant in Ohio are not a majority of the Republican party in that state..It further maintains that the Ohio convention demonstrated the weakness of the Grant movement, which is likely to decline during the year that will intervene before tbe presidential contest opens. Says the!Herald, General Grant will return to his native country about midsummer, and thenceforward he will be merely a quiet, undemonstrative citizan, forbidden by his natural reserve and his self respect from parading himself before his countrymen. The newspapers will then have little occasion to mention him, and the great ovations he has received in the old world will be like the fading memory of a pleasant dream. He will sink into the obscurity which has characterized former ex-Presidents, and as other candidates will feel free to push their claims vigorously, General Grant, in pursuance of his oft repeated declaration not to seek the position, will refuse to enter tbe list of contestants at all.

There wonld seem to be some philosophy in the Herald's argument. Indeed, It is quite evident that the "Grant movement" has of late lost something of Its pristine "boom." The country is not "booming" with anything like its former Intensity for the "man on horseback." Besides it is doubtful if tbe boom element will do to tie to. Ohio

high, broad forehead, short, dark hair, parted at tbe side, large eyes, and a firm, masculine air. She has much selfconfidence, and acta as if she would rather be a man than a woman. She always wore short dresses, a little jacket with inside pookets filled with tobsooo, a boy's bat, which she habitually tipped on meeting anyone, and a pistol which she handled like an expert. She was fond of smoking, excelled in out-door sports, did not care for the society of men, but wonld make love like a Romeo to her female blends. Sometimes, it is said, they would laugh tbwe strange fancies away at ethers they wonld be frightened by her vehemence and wonld run away from ber. She maintained that two women oonld lead as happy a married life as two persons of opposite sexes. She was an enigma to all, but notwithstanding her peculiarities, was considered a bright, intelligent woman.

juat before sunset, in the midst of thunderstorm and pouring rain. Tbe funeral oration was pronounced at bis late residence by bis brother Col. Robert G. Ingersoll. The pall bearer* were Judge Davis, of Illinois Ward Lamon, Senators Blaine, Paddock, Voorhees and Allison Congressmen Boyd and Stephenson, of Illinois General Garfield and ex-Congressman Wilson, of Indiana. Tbe Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial says: "The family and relatives sat about the casket, and Robert G. Ingersoll stood at its head while tbe lid was screwed down. Then drawing from his pockets few pages of manuscript he laid It upon the coffln lid, and commenced to read. His voice trembled with emotion, and much that be said was scarcely audible. It was a touching tribute of brotherly affection, and tbe eulogy upon the dead ma's Ills and character was expressed in the very highest art of eloquence of which Colonel Ingersoll is master. The love between the brothers was always a matter of comment among theix assocl-

a tea, and it was the voice of affection which spoke." Tbe address was in tie following words

For whether in mid sea or among tbe breakers of tbe farther shore, a wreck must mark at last the end of each and all. And every life, no matter if Us every hour is rich with love and every moment jeweled with a ioy, will at the close become a tragedy as sad ana deep and dark as can be woven of death.

This biavs and tender man in every storm of life was oak and rock, but in tbe sunshine he was vine and flower. He elimbed the heights and left all superstitions far below, while on his forehead fell the golden dawning of a grander d'i,

Je loved the beautiful, and was wi»haior, form and music touched to tears. He sided with the weak, and with a willing hand gave aJms with a loyal heart and with the purest hand he faithfully discharged all public trusts. He was a worshiper of liberty, a friend of the oppressed. A thousand times 1 have heard him quote the words, "for justice, all place a temple, and all season summer." He believed that happiness was the only good, reason the only torch, justice the only worshiper, humanity the only religion, and love the only priest. He added to the sum of human joy, and were every one for whom ae did some loving service to bring a blossom to his grave, he would sleep to-night beneath a wilderness of flowers. Life is a narrow vale between the cold and barren Deaks of two eternities. We strive iu vain to look beyond the heights. We cry aloud, and the only answer is the echo of our wailing cry. From the voiceless lips of the unrepiying dead there comes no word, but in the night of death hope sees a star, and listening love can hear the rustle of a wing. He who sleeps here, when dying, mistaking the approach of death for the return of health, vmispered with his latest breath, "I am better now. Let us believe, in spite of doubts and dogma*, and tears and fears, that these dear words are true of all the countless dead.

And now, to you who have been chosen from among the many men he loved, to do the last sad office for the dead, we give his sacred dust Speech tnnot contain our love. There was there is no gentler, stronger, manlier man.

"THE MANTLE OF

CHARITY. I"

For a time past the IndianapoliH papers have announced the production in that city Thursday evening last of "Othello" by Mr. D. Hanchet, supported by James P. Voorhees, as Iago, Mrs. Ella Morrison as Desdemona etc. We have looked Jfor the report of the performance with no little interest, because two of the actors are well known here. Their friends will be astounded to know that tbe Indianapolis Journal disposed of the performance in the following summary manner.

An audience fair as to size and quality witnessed the ptesentation of "Othello at the Opera House, last evening, with Mr. Hanchett in the title role. At times the reading of tne star was excellent, Out having been off the stage some years, engaged in teaching, he did not sustain himself continubusly. Let the mantle of charity cover the support,

THE DAVIS FAMILY.

The Davis family, of Terre Haute, gave concert at Armory Hall, Saturday evening last. The singing was excellent and the audience large, but owing to bad weather and heavy expenses, the church realized but small profits. The Davis family are excellent singers. Many of their pieces are quite new and interesting. We are sorry that tbe continued rain made their stay unpleasant. They rendered some fine music to an appreciative audience at the Congregational church, on Sabbath morning. They came over In a bnss and returned in the same way. They had a taste of what the people used to suffer before the days of tbe iron borse. They *re_ an excellent family. /. "J1

TO THE FRIENDS OF THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. At a meeting, June 4, 1879, it was resolved thht the building committee be instructed to begin work July 1st, and make the new edifice ready for occupancy by November 1st, 1879. Work will therefore begin in about four weeks from this time.

The necessity for larger accommodations has been manifest for along time, the church is to increase in usefulness the city it must have better audience and Sunday school room. In order that we may complete the building without .crushing debt, It becomes necessary for us to appeal for a certain amount of aid from our friends and neighbors not connected with our membership. Such a public building is an attraction, an ernament and a benefit to the public, in tbe past, our house will the future be open for such public meetings in addition to regular religious and moral work as may be helpfal to tbe sacred and intellectual progress of our oommunity. We have aided In many public enterprises and church buildings for others, and we confidently hope that we ahall meet with kind responses In our hour of need. Very much of our benevolent and educational work la done for those who can givens little aid.

Our committee wlll wait on many of the citizens and give them an opportunity of subscribing to the work. Whatever is given will be gratefully acknowledged and a record kept in the church archives.

Money or subscriptions may be given to either of the following persons: J. Q. Button, Central Bookstore, L. Thompson, J. A. Parker. Cllft A Williams, to any member of tne building committee, or to the undersigned.

An old bachelor, who thought be particularly hated literary women asked a bright young authoress if she could throw any light on tbe art of kissing. "I could," she said, looking archly at him "but, I think it better in the dark."

It is not always safe to allow your church choirs to get up Pinafore entertainments for church benefits, "lest they sometimes make a mistake" as they did last Sunday at the funeral of a young gentleman prominently connected with a church in San Francisco. The pastor a tall white haired man much resembling an admiral arose and in a sing song tone said. Our dear brother is gone from us, "we shall miss his presence in bis usual haunts." No sooner had he said this than the choir sprang to their feet and sang with fervor "and so will his sisters and his cousins and his aunts." "Now don't you forget it."
