A Dusty ON EeIIn,r.

When Charles Reade called upon the Harvard
crew in London he was dressed in an old
fashioned suit of the pepper and salt variety of
CLOTH such as prudent mothers hay by for active
young urchins for the sake of economy. While
his hat and coat were shocking as to style his
pants were cut in the baggy Iouayc style, the
whole making him cut a ridiculous figure among
the natty suits which most of their visitors
affected. Mr.. Reade added interest to his quaint
appearance by bringing copy Of the Police
AetcS newspaper for the delectation of the mem
bers OF the crew, who have been trying ever
since to discover why he thought they would
feel interested in the contents of that sheet.
Men who Ovcrreach Themselves.
There are men here and there who are n little
too smart, even for themselves. There is a will
now under settlement in New York city in
which a rich old gentleman very elfectualiy re-
yenges himself upon a son-in-law. 1t hap
pened that the son-in-law got some hold upon
the old man whereby he compelled him to set
tie 100000 upon his wife (the old mans daugh-
ter) before the affair was arranged As in duty
bound, the old gentleman ultimately paid the
debt of nature, and, Of course, the heirs were
wide awake for the will. There were three
daughters and one son, and the old man left to
the son 81, ,000,0 to each of the two daugh-
tiers 81 100000 but to the daughter whose hus.
band had played the trick upon him. nothing
more than receipt for the 100000 paid to hel
smart husband.

The BROOKS CAsB.-Now that the authori-
ties have their clutches upon the cowardly
tools of the whisky ring who attempted to
assassinate Detective Brooks in the broad
light of day, all the customary appliances are
being resorted to for getting them out of
harms way In New York. where two of
them still remain, awaiting a requisition,
the assistance of the notorious Judge Nc
Gum has heen called in, and every crook
and turn will be resorted to by him to set
the villains at liberty before they can be re-
manded But we hope that these efforts at
cheating justice will be thwarted, and that
this glaring outrage will be amply COM
pensated for by an exemplary punishment
of the perpetrators. One of the conspirators
the hack-driver McLaughlin-is already in
the city, and his friends are resorting to the
frequently misused privilege of the writ of
habeas corpus to secure his escape. For
wonder, however, the prisoner appears luke
warm in the enterprise, and has steadily re-
fused to converse with the lawyer whose
professional services have been secured in his
behalf. The authorities appear to be exer-
cising due vigilance IN preventing him from
being tampered with by outside parties, and
there is fair prospect that he at least will
receive his Just deserts.

New YORK CRY rejoices in the custody of
''Reddy the Blacksmith, who travelled all
the way to San Francisco before he could be
overtaken by certain gentlemen from Gotham
who desired to have his company on the
homeward iaunt. And now it is announced
that Dan the Blacksmith" an enterprising
Philadelphian, is awaiting at st. Louis the
arrival of certain gentlemen from this city,
in whose company he will return to our midst.
Dan, like Reddy, has been accustomed to
live by his wits, and hence his attempt to get
away from the scene of his exploits.

a Great Change.

One day last week we saw man on our
streets with long, uncombed hair, rough shay
gy beard, and from his appearance generally,
one might take him for the man who has been
playing the part of burg lar in this city for
some time past. He went into Adam Dick
haut's barber-shop, and under the manlpuia
tions of Adam was soon transferred into a
respectable looking citizen. All who desire
good shave, haircut or shampoo should
visit Adam. Ladies desiring their hair cut
cannot find a better place in town.

and by Miss Parker, as millinery establish
ment, was burglariously entered and robbed
of furs, satins, trimmings &C., to the amount
of about five hundred dollars. Robberies Of
this kind are getting to he quite frequent in
our city, and we think that two or three ex-

be out of place.

SEES.
The Treasurer reports from the penny col
lections, twenty one dollars and fifteen cents.
The closing exercises, when the school ad-
journed until the End Sunday in April next,
were very interesting and impressive. The
lesson for the day was the 23rd psalm--a
psalm better known and oftener read than all
the others, that reveals the Creator to the
heart of his creature, man, as the gentle, low
ing Shepherd, caring for us all our lives and
finally guiding and comforting us even
through the valley and the shadow of
Death" The psalm was repeated in concert
by the school and an incident Of touching in
terest was the lingering voices of some of the
little ones who, unable to quite keep up with
the rest followed on as rapidly as they could,
determined not to lose word in recital of
this beautiful psalm.
Our school has been very fortunate in the
choice Of it's officers. Our superintendent, on
whom, more than all the rest the interest and
success of the school depend is man whose
heart is warm with the love of God and his
neighbor, and the influence of his love and
zeal is felt by oil from the youngest to the
oldest. Our Librarian, faithful at his post ey-
cry Sunday, looking alter the books with
vigilent eye and always made happy by the
interest the children take in getting them.
Our Secretary is always on hand with his
monthly report to add to The interest of the
school. The teachers with unavoidable ex-
ceptions have been constant in their attend
ance thus maintaining their own interest and
that of their classes in the lessons and exerci-
ses or the school. An interesting feature of
the machinery of our Sunday School is the
weekly penny collection to maintain the IL
brary. Every member from the lisping child
to the grey haired grandsire is expected to
bring penny. This is cheerfully done and
with especial delight by the children. Thus
tiny rills of pennies flow from every class and
by the time they reach the treasurer's pond
become dollars and these, with the addition of
special contribution when our school opens
again, will buy us another good addition to
our library. Il $50
An lem of interest was the report of the
superintendent as to how these pennies were
obtained. At the CONNER cement of our
school he requested the little ones to earn the
pennies they brought by their own labor, in
stead of begging them of papa and tod
them how much more pleasure they would
have in giving them if they did so. Some Of
the way, iniwhich they were earned were re-
ported by the superintendent as follows:
catching mice; hunting hens eggs, picking
up potatoes husking corn picking up chips;
churning; moulding candles; sewing carpet
rags.
think feeling akin to sadness prevailed
the school as we realized that for a seas on we
must forego the labors and pleasures Of our
Sunday School. But this will soon be dissi-
pated by the hope of returning spring when
it will arise again like the sun when he comes
forth to q cloudless sky from his chamber in
the east. VIDI.

! In response to letters missive from the Con-
gregational Church of this city, countn OF
ministers and delegates from neighboring
churches convened here last Wednesday, the
sth inst, at 2 p. M :, to advise with this church
with regard to the propriety of installing
Rev. H. C. Hitchcock as pastor of said church.
Seven churches were represented; two sent
their 'sregrets," three not heard from. The
council organized by making Rev. G. D. Hell
mer, of Chicago, moderator, and Rev. W. 8.
Alexander, of Racine, scribe. After full
and thorough examination ofthe pastor elect
covering all the points of his former ministe-
rial and ecclesiastical staining, his christian
experience, call to the ministry, and doctri-
nal belief, the council with one voice pro-
nounced itself satisfied and voted unanimous
ly to proceed to the installation at in the
evening.
At the hour appointed large congrega-
ton assembled to listen to the installation
services. We only speak the sentiment of all
who were present Wednesday evening, when
we say that all the several parts of the SER
vice were admirably performed, ev;ncing on
the part of the several speakers high order
of talent and christian eloquence. The SER
mon by Rev DIR. Bartlett, of Chicago, was q
very able production, worthily representing
the soundness and learning of our North West
ern Theological Seminary, and the pulpit
earnestness demanded in the ministry of the
times. The strong thrusts which the PROBES
sor made at the shallow and popular tendency
to decry doctrines and doctrinal preaching,
were especially timely. The doctrines of God
and his Moral Government, said he, are the
grandest themes that can engage the human
understanding. and preaching becomes
worthless. inane, fat, the moment 1t loses
sight of them.
After the sermon came the Installing
Prayer by Rev. Mr.. Gridley, formerly pas
tor here, whose earnest supplication of the
divine blessing showed how deep an interest
he still retains in the spiritual welfare of this
church and the honor of Gods cause here.
Then followed the Rev. j. L. Dudley, of
Milwaukee, in the charge to the pastor, an
address which was marked by the unique
style peculiar to that gentleman, full of
spice and fun and stimulating thought, the
very poetry of eloquence. After him, Rev.
w. S. Alexander gave the Right Hand OF
Fellow ship, in words and with grasp, too,
that were truly earnest, cordial, brotherly.
Last, but not least, was the pithy, pun
gent, practical charge to the people, by Rev.
G. D. Helmer Moderator of the Council.
The singing by the Choir was of the highest
order of excellence, and added greatly to the
impressiveness of the occasion.
After the pronouncing of the apostolic
benediction, the large audience dispersed
with the feeling that they had been both en-
tertained and richly instructed, end that if
this new shepherd and his flock will only act
upon the abundance of good advice given
them, the blessing of God will follow them,
and they shall go in and out and find pasture
