None of the editors, of course, who
have copied the following could have had
any suspicion of the mild tinge of pro-
family with which it would, at first sight,
seem to be imbued:
''They have man in Lock Haven
named Gaudam. His would be nice
name for church deacon For instance,
the preacher would say, 'Gaudam you

have our Gaudam name Immediately
changed to something more reverential.'

WEAK CoLLEGEs.-Out of three hum
dred and three colleges in the United
States. two hundred and sixty-fye are
supported by religious denominations.
Of these the Catholics have fifty -four;
Baptists, forty-two; Methodists, thirty
two; Presbyterians, twenty-five; Con-
gregational, sixteen; Episcopalians, six
teen; j; Lutheran, sixteen. These insti-
tutions contain three thousand instruc-
tors and nearly fifty thousand pupils.
If each denomination would not label
every school under its control ''col-
lege," however, a liberal education in
this country would signify more than it
does now. A college which is one in
fact, and not simply one in name. is
worth moro to any religious organization
than dozen of the kind so common in
the United States.

AN AWKWARD MIsTAKE.-A curious
story was current in West End circles
some years ago. The Duke of Yelling
ton received note which he believed
emanated from the Bishop of London,
requesting permission ''to sketch the
Waterloo breeches.' The Duke, though
both alarmed and surprised, Immediate
ly ordered the small clothes to be for
warded to st. James square, with the
following characteristic epistle: "F.
NJ, the Duke of Wellington presents his
compliments to the Bishop of London,
and is not aware that the breeches he
wore on the occasion of the battle of
Waterloo differ materially from many
other pairs in his Grace's possession, but
they are very much at the Bishops ser
vice and he can make any use of them
he thinks proper" The Bishops con-
sternation on receipt of the above, with
its accompanying parcel, had the effect
of inducing him Immediately to order
his carriage and drive to the Prime Min
lister with this sad proof of the wreck of
his Grece's mental powers, whilst the
'Duke'' on the other hand, mounted his
horse and rode to the residence of the
Lord Chancellor with a similar announce
ment in respect to the Bishop, producing
the note he had that morning received.
On closer examination it was discover
ed that the writer was not the Bishop OF
London, but miss Loudon,' daughter
Of the great landscape gardener, and her.
self an artist of some celebrity, asking
his Grace's permission to sketch not the
Waterloo breeches," but a clump q

A SCARE IN CIRcUs.-On Tuesday
evening while O'Brien's circus was giving
an exhibition at this place, an exciting
scene occurred. The bareback rider,
owing to the fact that his horse had be-
come very wet, by the rain, had much
trouble to maintain his position, and
finally fell off, The horse attempted to
run out of the ring, but being headed
off at the entrance, he bounded over the
ropes. His rider ran after and caught
him by the name, and struck him vi
olent blow with his whip. The horse
pulled away from him and ran around
by the seats, when he was headed off
and becoming frightened by the shouts
of the people he sprang up on the seats
into the midst of the women and chill
dren. Those of the crowd who could
get away rushed toward the entrance of,
the tent, and the screams of the women
were fearful to hear. Meanwhile the
horse was paving and kicking in his en-
deavors to get further upon the seats. in
the midst of a number of ladies and chill
dren, who were unable to get away.
Fortunately, after the horse got up as
far as the fourth seat he fell in between
the boards so that he could not strike
with his feet, and tie people were taken
away from him. Several children were
slightly injured, and one lady, Mrs.
Griffith, was quite seriously hurt by be-
ing struck in the back by the horse
while attempting to get away. The
horse was finally secured. the people
quieted, and the performance went on.
Mrs. Griffith settled her damages with
the circus company for ten dollars

LADY VISITORS WORRYING THE BIG
INJUNs.-Despite the severe and annoy
ing rain storm of yesterday, about two
hundred and fifty ladies andj gentlemen
called for curiosity merely on the Sioux.
It must be said that these wild men of
the plains are more gifted with polite
ness and good breeding than the people
who call to see the red men. 1t is not
pleasant to be stared at by twenty score
of people even if man has Sioux blood
boiling in his veins.
There is. considerable feeling mani
tested against Red Dog, who was the au-
. thorrof the terrible Fort Fetterman mas
sacre. and the ladies especially give this
worthy wide berth. Red Cloud, who
is really man of considerable brains
and of great influence among his people,
was soon wearied Of being gazed at by
the constantly increasing stream of Wis
itors, so much SO, that he told DIR. Dan
iels, late in the afternoon, that he was
willing to be looked at by the lady Wis
itors, bless their hearts, but that if there
were no more of them coming he would
go and take big sleep. 1t is worthy of
mention that none of the Ogallalas ever
snore, this part of their education hav-
ing been grievously neglected. These
Ogallalas are, without doubt, the clean,
est band of Indians that have ever visit
ed this city. The splendid store clothes
and moccasins bought for them by Uncle
Sam rendered them absolutely beautiful

ed by sore throat, die of envy.

FOURTH OF July IN SEATTLE.-lt Is
agreed by all that the celebration OF the
Fourth in this city was the most splen-

We have no room for details which have
ceased to interest. Suffice it to say that
the programme was carried out to the
satisfaction of all the day was delight
full; the procession, large portion OF
which was composed of beautiful girls
and young ladies' tastefully appareled,
was grand and imposing; the floral DIS
play was surprisingly beautiful, and the
principal streets were tastefully decora-
ted with arches, evcrgreens. flowers.

scenic effect and high order of artistic
taste and skill, principally the design
and workmanship of the Vieutemps

assisted by the ladies' of the Musical So
ciety, are the citizens indebted for the
prandest ceiebration-at the least ex-
pense to themselves-ever had In Seat
tie; and this, too, in the face Of fierce
opposition which no one can account
for.
The exercises at the Pavilion were of
an impressive character. Col. Larr 'bee
paesiied, Rev. Daniel Bagley pronoun-
ced an eloquent and app opriate prayer,
Rev. George F. Whitworth read the De-
claration of Independence impressively,
and Gov. Saloman delivered one of the
most sensible and practical orations we
ever listened to on like occasion. The
music was rendered by the Seattle Band
and nearly three hundred trained voices
under the direction of the Vieutemps
Brothers.
All was well and fair with the excep-
ton of the accidents at the fireworks in
the evening. elsewhere alluded to.
