sion of congress not later than Sept. \\ heat touched the 66 cent mark in Chicago on Friday of last week, the lowest, it is claimed, it was ever known to be in the city. A depositor withdrew S9OO from a savings bank in Chicago the other day and in a short time afterward had it stolen by a pickpocket. The rumors of Queen Victoria’s abdication of the throne, set afloat by

London newspaper correspondents, are said to be groundless. Secretary Foster attributes his failure to “neglect of business occasioned by my devotion to politics.” There is a whole sermon in this. It’s the “Infanta Eulalia” in every issue of the metropolitan papers. For heaven’s sake, can’t we have a breathing spell from this nonsense? Mrs. O'Leary, who owned the cow that kicked the lamp that started the lire that burned Chicago, is now a resident of Masonville, Mich. An anti-trust convention was assembled in Chicago this week. Such conventions are needed. Trusts should be downed. A trust is onlj a pretext for robbing the people. Henry Allison, who was up for murder at Plainfield, this state, has been discharged because the indictment against him was made to read “1893” instead of “1892,” by a blundering clerk. They are solving the tramp problem in Kansas. Many of the towns in that state not only make tramps work but sentence them to two baths daily. The result is that the tramp fraternity is giving those towns the cold shoulder. w Tho Wanatah News condenses aI ( -sava-ava xoo ox . . . „ , , buo^l US Hr mF at-ei+ccnri i\ * +

prify suite mt r whom he comes in contact as he would wish to be treated and whose conception of humanity is broad enough to treat dumb animals in the same manner, we see the potentiality of the future good citizen.” In regard to Sunday opening of the world’s fair Bishop Potter, of New York, recently said: “Any door, all doors, indeed, which lead men to a deeper and broader understanding of the story of the world are suitable doors to open on Sunday, for within

them is to be found that which furnishes the nobler and the worthier 1 education of man and leads to the ' highest education of all, which is his 1 spiritual education.” And he ex- 1 pressed the belief that the cause of re- 1 ligion would be helped rather than hurt by it. Edwin Booth, America’s foremost tragedian, died last Wednesday morning in New York City after a lingering illness following a stroke of paralysis last April. The great actor was born in Bel Air, Md., Nov. 13, 1833, and was the son of Junius Brutus Booth, an actor of note in his day. As a boy Booth is said to have been reticent and singular, profound, sensitive and very

studious. He made his first appearance as an actor at the Boston museum, Sept. 10, 1849, in Richard Ilf., taking . tlie part o£ 'Xressail. XS itli tAw Qcutu ( of Edwin Booth passes away the greatest actor America ever produced, and the last of our very few tragedians who have ranked as stars of the first magnitude.

Here’s a nut to crack from the New \lbany Tribune: -If two-thirds of i the Presbyterian General Assemby vote to depose Dr. Briggs, and onethird vote to sustain him, what shall be done with the third? Shall they be deposed also? Are the Standards of the Presbyterian church to be subject to the ride of the majority? Are orthodoxy and heresy to be settled by majorities?”

I he case of Dr. Briggs has been one of absorbing interest, and since he was convicted of heresy by the Presbyterian assembly much additional interest and inquiry regarding the merits of the case have arisen. There is a palpable lack of correct information about the hesesy for which the doctor was tried and convicted. In brief, his heresy consisted in holding and teaching the following: Thatthere are threesourees of divine, authority, viz., the bible, the church and the reason, and as a consequence many are saved by the bible; QniHA A... xv. • .

some mid resu to their souls, like Newman, through divine authority as found in the church, and others, Martineau, for instance, find the same peace through reason; that Moses was not the author of the Pentateuch, and that Isaiah was not the author of all the book that bears his name; that there are errors in the bible, though none to affect its teaching of faith and practice; that much of the prophecy can never be fulhlled; that there is a progressive sanctification after death. Too Much Term Prominent educators of the country are just at present considering whether our school system does not take all originality out of a child. From the general indications it does. The child is so hampered by rigid regulations that any original ideas that ho may possess are forgotten in his attempts to conform With the nonsensical rules. He is directed to compose something, and is given to understand that he must write a certain number of pages, no matter what he may think upon the subject. And again, he has to ( watch his margins, and be very particular about other little things which have nothing to do with the thought, but a violation of which may keep him in the same grade for years. As a result the essays and compositions written by the model school children are stinted and set in form, without a pleasing expression or a bright idea in mb Lno *

WONDERS ON THE WHITE CITY. A quick and cheap route to the world's fair grounds from the city is by the elevated railroad. It costs you but a nickle each way. You get on at Congress street bet ween State and \\ abash. The road is elevated perhaps twenty feet above the ground. The train goes scoot ing down back alleys and through /a4-1/I nl-inoa nntl in 11. wW

all sorts of odd places ami in u minutes lands you right at the entrance to the fair grounds. There are so many places of interest on the grounds that it is hard to select any particular ones to visit. The best way to do is to buy a world’s fair guide which costs 25 cents and contains information di meeting the visitor to buildings and places of interest. The Art, Manufactures, Agricultural, Fisheries, Alining and Machinery buildings are perhaps as interesting as any of the places that can be visited. There are many other buildings of great interest and importance but the above named ones are great centers of attraction. But by all means visit the Midway Plaisance. This is the panorama of na-

tions. Here you will see German, Egyptinn, African, South Sea Island and Irish villages, Turkish bazaarsand uiosypies, <3liiiicse lAieixter and exhibits, Moorish and Algerian theaters and exhibits, and so on ad infinitum. You can get a lunch on the grounds at a very reasonable price. By dropping ; in at any of the eating houses kept by j I the Wellington Catering Co. you are sure of being well served with a good, i palatable lunch at from 15 cents up, j according to the size and capriciousness iof your appetite. There are other res--1 taurants no doubt where you would 'be as well served, but we know the i Wellington company to be all right.

| The reports of extortion at the fair are mostly exaggerations, and people who stay away because of these reports are making a great mistake. Rooms and board can be obtained on very reasonable terms in the city or near the grounds. There is no extortion nor robbery there, and by all means go to the fair and take your families to see the beauties and greatness of this mecca of civilization.
