led off in the match there was at first a feeling of pisappsintmant, but his whistling grew upon the audience. His stylo was quiet and artistic. He is small, and his appearance does not indicate what is in him. His notes are flute-like, with no abrupt changes nor staccato movements. Ho has a small, light brown mustache, and his upper lip is arched in the middle. He whistles from his chest, and only slight movements ofhis checks or
lips.
His first selection was “A Trip to a
of incubation in a Cottage.” As tho melody poured forth
in almost uninterrupted strains, the audience, which five minutes before had been stamping and cat calling with impatience that a pin could have been heard to drop, lie stood with his head square on his shoulders and his arms folded. As the last note died away ho bowed, swayed backward, turned on his heel, and, throwing up his right heel j

Peter Campbell was born in County
Tyrone, Ireland, about 1859. He early displayed a genius for whistling. In that respect he soon rose superior to his schoolmates, and his fame spread
throughout the neighborhood. In Bridgeport at the corner of Booth
and Steuben streets, is a grocery kept by M. T. Feeley. The long residence of Mr. ILrnum in the town has called much attention to the show business, and there is a great deal of local talent. Among the young men who occasionally visit Mr. Feeley’s store, there are several who are good dancers, and for those young men 1’eter Campbell, when he happened in, would whistle an occasional jig or clog tune. Mr. Feeley, who belongs to a musical family, was quick to recognize Campbell's ability. He gave him an encouraging word, and when Campbell suggested a whistling match he olfered to back him. Then Campbell wrote his challenge to tho whistlers of tho world. This challenge called forth responses from Jinks Morarity, of Hartford; Signor Delano, of Bridgeport; Fred Monks, of Anosia; Harry Hart, of North Manchester, the whistling barber of
iflarriod by THuffrapli. Portland, Ind., Sept. 26.—At half past 2 o’clock this afternoon occurred a marriage by telegraph, that of A. II. Latham, manager of the American Telegraph at Albany, in Central Missouri, and Miss Linnie Faris, of Fennville, this county. Miss Faris stood beside Rev. R. U. Barrett, the officiating minister, in the telegraph office here, while theceiemony was transmitted. She was attired in a neat dress of light goods, trimmed with drab satin and tlowers. The ceremony occupied thirty-six minutes.

closed in the middle. Tho aperture through which the music came was on the right side of his mouth, between the middle and the corner. It was very small. His notes were like those of a fife, sharp, clear and distinct, with many trills and abrupt changes. Peter Campbell ia called a robin; Jinks Moriarty a bobolink. Tho walls of the great hall, which was formerly St. John’s Church, sent hack the echoes. Tho audience were captivated by the brilliancy ofhis execution of the difficult passages. At this period it looked bad for Campbell. A vote taken at this time would probably have gone against Campbell. But the judges were educated musicians, it was said, and would be able to distinguish between tho repose of well-sus-tained classical art and popular effects. He stood like a statue, with his arms hanging by his sides. When he had finished ho bowed gracefully and in turn disaupeared behind the curtains, one side of which was drawn back to aid him in his exit. He is twenty-three
years old.
There was a quiver of tho curtain, and again Peter Campbell stood before the footlights. This time he gave “Tho Campbells are coming.” Though born across tho channel, ho belongs to the clan, and he threw his whole being into tho battle piece. In a trice ho had the audience with him and he felt it. The notes came up full and strong, and the boys in the twenty-five cent seats could not resist tho impulse to keep time with their feet. They were hushed by the older music lovers in front of them. When ho had finished there came loud stamping and clapping of hands. When Jinks Moriarty appeared for tho second time, and trilled tho first note of “The Girl 1 left behind me,” some one behind tho curtain (probably not Peter Campbell) made a comic twitter. This made Moriarty laugh. He bowed again, and then getting his lips under control again, ho placed his hands behind him under his coat, lifted his face to the ceiling, and filled tho hall with diversified music. Some of his notes are remarkably shrill and clear. They say of Moriarty in Hartford that his tongue is as thin as a shaving. Campbell s whistling is pitched on a much higher key. After this Peter Campbell gave “Rorj* O’Moore” and two clog tunes, alternating with Jinks Moriarty, who warbled “The Irish Woman,” a jig and a clog. The performance of each in turn was greeted with loud stamping and hand-dapping. When the whistlers had finished, the three judges put their heads together. The audience watched them with anxiety. Pretty soon, however, it was announced from the stage that the Judges were unable to come to a conclusion between the nicely balanced claims of tho two con-
testants.
THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD. Without a question Buffilo, N. Y’„ can boast of the largest and most complete Sanitarium in the world. The Invalids’ Hotel was founded by Dr. R. V. Pierce, who has represented his district as Statu Senator and in Congress, and is known throughout tho United States as tho originator of Dr. Pierce's Family Medicines, and who has also become widely celebrated in the treatment of chronic diseases. The erection of this mammoth home for invalid** was made necessary by ! the large number of atllictcd who (locked to Buffalo from all parts of the United States to consult Dr. Pierce and the eminent medical gentlemen associated with him as the faculty of this celebrated institution. The establishment is said to have cost nearly a half million of dollars, and is furnished with every appliance and facility for the care of chronic ailments. A corresponding large branch institution is located in Loudon, England. The whole concern is owned and operated by the World's Dispensary Medical Association, of which the original Dr. Pierce is President—his brother, an uncle, and other eminent medical gentlemen taking part in the treatment of cases. In treating cases they are not at all confined to the nairow limits of prescribing the justly I celebrated remedies, Dr. Pierce’s Golden | Medical Discovery, Pleasant Purgative | Pellets, or any other set remedies, however good, but have resort to the whole range of the Materia Medina, as well as to Turkish and other baths, Swedish movements and other approved remedies and methods of cure.

FANT8.
It is a conceded fact that mothers who have the- care, anxiety and draught of nursing infants are weak and need the aid of some strengthening tonic to make up tho nourishment required for the growth of the child. Ale, porter and kgor beer have often been recommended. Of late, since physicians have become aware that the Port Grape Wine produced by Alfred Speer, of Passaic, N. J., ia strictly pure, they have prescribed it instead of ale and porter. This wine is principally sought for by mothers who have nursing infants at the breast, as the best supplying medicine to be found. Tho wine is rich in body and not intoxicating, but gently stimulating. Druggists generally keep it.—Enquirer. For sale at Allen’s

The white girl who married a negro at Galesburg, III., was Nellie Chase. Her grandfather was tho first Episcopal Bishop of the West, and her father was a can didate for Bishop of the Diocese of Chicago at tho time tho present incumbent was elected. Miss Chase's brother is Horace Chase, a well-known lawyer of 1’coria, and her sister is the wife of the Rev. G. II. Higgins, rector of the most fashionable Episcopal Church in Galesburg. 8am M unroe, whom she married, is a coachman and uneducated. On the evening of the elopement Sam took the girl and her satchel out of the house through a window. They hastened to a Justice, who performed a marriage ceremony. On the following day the bride was captured by her relatives and started for California. The bridegroom was arrested, the pretext being that ho had
stolen the satchel.
