Remember the Drunkard.

Cannot Ministers of Christ agree to
preach more against the dangers of the
cup? From many pulpits this whole
SUBJECTS entirely excluded. The drunk
ard is rarely prayed for; the young not
warned against the ensnaring DEVICE of
the devil; the law of God against drunk
enness is substantially ignored? And
yet it is undeniable that the bottle is
sending more souls to perdition than all
the inidel tongues and pens in the land,
We utter no railing against our brethren
who ignore this stupendous moral evil /;
but we would not choose to have a son of
ours trained up under such ministry

Too Good TO be Lost.

A young man at a social party was
urged to sing song. He replied that
he would first tell story, aud then il
they persisted in their demands he would
try and execute song. When boy,
he said he took lessons in singing, and
one Sunday morning he went into his fa-
theirs garret to practice by himself. =
When in full play he was sent for by the
old gentleman. {" This is pretty conduct"
said the father, ga pretty employment for
a son of pious parents to saw boards on
the Sabbath morning, loud enough to be
heard by the neighbors. Sit down and
take your book" The young man was
excused from singing the proposed song.

Important arrest Of Counterfeiters in
PHILADELPHIA,

J PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27.-Dr. Nj. V
[ Garman, Nat. Kinsey, and Miss Caroline
Heron were arrested last night on charge
OF manufacturing counterfeit bank notes.
The officer also seized S22 800 of finished
| and SlOO,O 900 of unfinished notes. They
also captured the plates for printing notes
on the Fourth National Bank of New
York City aud 30, cent fractional currency
together with the presses, inks, &c. Since
the arrest of Dr. Garman it has been as
certained that he had a contract to sup
ply notes on the First National Bank of
our city, to be executed next week.
Garman is supposed to be the man who
first issued counterfeit fractional currency
notes. The parties will have hearing
before the United States Commissioner
Immediately.
For years past Garman has been sus-
pected Of being engaged in the counter
felt business, and the detectives have
been after him through Ohio and this
State, but never could obtain sufficient to
warrant them in arresting him. Garman
has been living in this for niue months
past, but has been very careful to conceal
his place of residence. He would some
times consume nearly half day in reach
ing his home, taking very roundabout
course, in order to throw off of their guard
any persons who might be watching him.
1t was finally ascertained that Miss
Heron had relatives in Ohio, with whom
she corresponded. Last evening she
made her appearance at the ost-Ofice,
and was followed to home No. A Dicker-
sOn-st. The house was surrounded, and
a watch was kept for Garman He was
seen to ceme out, and was followed to
Eleventh and Spruce-sts., when he was
captured, with Kinsey, who is an engrav-
er. The officers who had been left to
watch the house in Dickerson-st. then
took possession Of it, and found Miss He
ron there. The presses, paper, ink, &c,
employed in the manufacture of the money
were all found in the house The bus-
ness was carried on SO quietly that it was
not suspected By the neighbors, and iu
order that no noise mi ght be heard, india
rubber was placed under the press

How to Become a Millionaire.

John McDonough, the millionare of
New Orleans, has engraved upon his
tomb series of maxims he has inscribed
as the rule for his guidance through life
and to which his success in business is
mainly attributed They contain so much
wisdom that We copy them:
RULES FOR GUIDANCE OF My LIFE,
1904. Remember always that labor is
one of the conditions of our existence
Time is gold throw not one minute away,
but place each one to account. Do unto
all men as you would be done by. Never
put off till tomorrow what you can to-
day. Never bid another do what you can
do yourself. Never covet what is not
your own. Never think any matter so
trifling as not to deserve notice Never
give out that which does not first come
in. Never spend but to produce Let
the greatest order regulate the transac-
tions of your life. Study in your course
of life to do the greatest amount of good.
Deprive yourself of nothing necessary to
your comfort, but live in an honorable
simplicity. Labor, then, to the moment
of your existence. Pursue strictly the
above rules, and the Divine blessings
and riches of every kind will flow upon
you to your hearts content; but first of
all remember that the chief and great du-
ty of your life should be to tend, by all
means in your power, to the honor and
glory of our Divine Creator.
The conclusion to which l have arriv-
ed is, that with temperance there is no
health ; without virtue no order without
religion no happiness and that the aim
of our being is to live wisely, soberIy,
and righteously,

mere came 10 lne Dedcn poor exile OF

The dew on his raiment was heavy and

For his country he sighed when at twilight

To wander alone by the wind beaten hill.
But the day-star attracted his eyes sad de-

For it rose DER his own native isle OF the
ocean,
Where oft in the fire of his youthful emotion
He sang the bold anthem of Erin go Brah.

But alas! in far foreign land | awaken,
And sigh for the friends who can meet me

Oh! cruel fate, wilt thou never replace me,
In a mansion of peace where no perils can

All! never again shall my brothers embrace
me,
They died to defend me or live to deplore.

Where is the mother that looked on my

And where is the bosom friend dearer than

But rapture and beauty they cannot recall !!

Buried and cold when my heart stills her

Green be thy fields, sweetest isle of the

And thy heart striking bards sing aloud with

Masonic Celebration.

Such progress has been made BY the Masonic
fraternity of this city in the preparations for the
contemplated celebration of st. Johns Day, oath
of June next-and such encouraging responses
for q large attendance from aboard have been re-
ceived, that we are able to promise with conf.
dence that the celebration in Ottawa on the day
named will be one of the most brilliant and sue.
ccssful Of the kind ever held in nothern Illinois.
There will be procession of a: least thousand
mason.s, of all orders dressed in their splendid
regalia, with their unique banners and cnsigns,
music by two or three of the best bands in the
state, with grand dinner, oration by Dr. Tiffany.
convivial speeches, &C., &c.
We have been often asked, why do the masons
celebrate ST. Johns Day. On this point we can
only give bit OF masonic tradition. Anciently,
this tradition tells US all lodges were dedicated
to King Solomon, until the Babylonish captivity.
From that time TO the time of the Messiah they
were dedicated TO Zerubbabel, the builder of the
second temple and after the destruction of the
temple 10y Titus, they were dedicated to st. John
the Baptist, then their the last grand master. For
some years after the destruction of Jerusalem by
the Romans, however, masoney fell into decay,
owing TO the great disorder and cruelties of the
times, rs well as the want of a grand master. I'M
til about the year %, when st. John the Evange.
list, then over 30 years of age consented to take
the Office. Whence all masonic lodges since
then are dedicated to st. John the Baptist and
st. John the Evangelist, and masons have contin.
ued to this day TO celebrate tho o4tb of Ju,a IN
commemoration of st. John the Baptist, and the
27th OF December in commemoration of st. John
the Evangelist

WEATHER 1rEM.-The Englishman, who
had made two weeks tour of the United States
and seen none but pleasant Skies but was finally
set down in New York on one of that city's
chilliest, foggiest, nastiest days. and remarked
with great glee, "Well, this is weather as is
weather-none Of yoar blasted Jlue sly!"-that
Johnny Bull, we say-would have been delight.
ed with the weather we have been enjoying for
the past week in this afflicted region For full
week up to yesterday, we have had almost a con.
tinuous' cold, chilling, now drizzling, now
splashing northeast rain It's especial affliction
is, that it comes just when the farmers ought To
have been busy planting their corn. What little
corn was planted before the rain has probab,v
rotted in the ground, while now it will be a wool
ut least before the ground will be fit to do ,nv
more planting, and the rule is, that all the corn
planted after the Goth of May stands in danger
of being caught by the early frosts in fall.

prices But the truth is, they can do that, and
still make money, as they are connected with a
heavy manufacturing establishment in Massach-

thus saving jobbers' commissions. They have
been running on this low price system since last
fall, and seem doing very we'll
