A Church that Began with a DOG
Fight

The true origin of one Of the New
Haven churches is perhaps unknown,
even to many of the present worship
ers within its beautiful gates. Not
to put too fine a point upon it, be-
gan in dog fight AS a young man,
whom it will be sufficient to describe
as being at present the surgeon of the
United States Marine Hospital at
Puget Sound, was on his way to church
one Sunday morning, about eight
years ago, couple of vagabond ours
fell out directly in his path. 1t was
in part of the city where Bibles and
Sundays, and sanctuary privileges
were separately enjoyed, for in less
than five minutes from the first grap>
pie of the combatants, no fewer than
twenty eight children had gathered to
act as umpires. The surgeon-to- be at
once decided that then was the time,
and that the place for mission school
on which his heart had long been set.
The shop in front of which the fight
took place happened to be that OF a
rag picker, and after some difficulties
the loft above it was secured for two
years, at moderate rent, the rags
swept out. benches were furnished by
the old Center Church, and the Sun
day school opened with eighty at its
first session. The numbers and in
terest constantly increased from month
to month. until, to make a long story
short, this school of street arabs has
now become the strong West Church,
with its stately edifce of stone and
sterling neutrality-suspicious. I'm

irving yesterday morning. Boswell
was allowed to see his wife yesterday,
and started for this city in the after
noon, where he was received as stated.
The officers of the Franklin Lie say
that they will prosecute the prisoner
to the end. They have already expen-
ded nearly FIVE thousand dollars in
their efforts to capture him, and will
not allow him to escape punishment
now when they have at last caught
him.
GENERAL BOSWELL SOUTHERN EXPLOITS.
Last winter W. L. Hensley, one Of
the agents of the company, who had
written the policy on Boswell's life.
made three months tri p over near
ly the entire South in vain effort to
capture the prisoner but without sue
cess. He found out, however, that
Boswell bore the reputation Of being
a consummate swindler there before
and during the war. His manner OF
operating was to buy negroes and
swindle the sellers before they got
clear of him. For these operations. he
was arrested in Arkansas, but clear
ed by employing able attorneys.
When the war broke out, he raised a
company of negroes and turned them
over to the federal forces. Afterwards,
he figured at Washington as General
Boswell, next at Muncie as heavy
capitalist and patent ri ght dealer, and
now as prisoner under arrest for one
of the coolest swindles that has been
attempted for years.

The symptoms OF returning conf
dence are steadily multiplying. They
are due partly to the promise of ample
crops throughout the land, to the
passage of the currency bill, and the
belief that the mass of capital now ly-
ing unemployed will begin to find le-
gitimate opportunities enough for its
investment. The July dividends, too
will shortly be released to swell, by
100000, 900, the stream of general
abundance, and from the different
channels into which so large a sum
will suddenly be diverted, an unusual
activity must be impaired to values of
every kind With these three ele-
ments of general prosperity develop
ing neutrality-suspicious., conf
dence, and activity-the problem bids
fair to furnish it's own solution, and
the prophesies are far from premature
or oyersansuine which promise a
large and profitable autumn trade.

Donaldson has added another
frightful trick to his eyolutions in
the clouds on the trapez bar. He
says the regular drop is uninter
esting now. Now he does some
thing worth doing, he says. The
ring to which the trapez is attached
affords him an enlarged opportunity.
He hangs on his toes on this ring,
and when away up half a mile above
the house tops he let's go entirely
and drops headlong down and
again catches himself with his toes
on the bar. This dropping act is
pronounced the most frightful and
blood curdling act ever witnessed.
The aronaut hangs down his full
length, straight and stiff, and all of
a sudden he drops and comes
swooping down, only to catch
himself nicely at the proper time.
A wave of the hands and graceful
salute from the man hanging head
downwards bids the awe stricken
multitude below quiet their fears,
for he is all safe and sound.

RATES OF ADyERTIsING.


One thing may be set down as
an indisputable fact, namely: that
while SO large a volume of American
Indebtedness is held in Europe,
America cannot resume and main
tain specie payments. In other
words, if we would pay specie at
home, we must cease to pay it
abroad. Now, as the nation must
pay it's debts in gold, according to-
agreement, manifestly the wisest
course is to first pay that portionI
of the debt due to strangers. AS
it takes a large share of all the gold
we can raise to pay interest and
discharge foreign balances, it is
plain that we cannot meet the prin- ]
cipal of the foreign debt in a lump.
There remains but one course,
namely; TO offer to the people a|
bond bearing a low rate of currency
interest, permitting them to absorb
it gradually and, with the proceeds
converted into gold, gradually re-
tire the five and six per cents held
in Europe. The only road to spe-
Gle payments is through retire
ment of national bonds from the
hands of foreign holders. Much
has been said about the dis
grace of being in debt to the hold.
ers of greenbacks. There is no
disgrace to the United States
arising from any portion of its
indebtedness. The foreign cred-
itors are more than satisfied with
their purchases of our national
securities, and they will never
surrender them until the interest
is stopped by notice of an offer to
pay. The holders of greenbacks
are part of the government itself.
They not only consent to, but
ordered the issue. Greenbacks, as
currency, cost nothing, and the
people know that to retire them
will cost, in taxation or an increase
Of the interest bearing debt, $780,

Of these alternatives, because they
cannot fail to see that the foreign

be paid.-1nter Ocean.

Idianapolis Journal: ''In their

of the District of Columbia Inves-
tigating Committee and their
complete reputation of Shepherd,
the Republican members of the
Senate honored themselves and the

is fair illustration of tho spirit
which animates the party. 1t is
that dishonesty and malfeasance in
office will not be tolerated, that
those who practice them will be
cast out of political fellowship. Not
even the name and the influence of
the President could save Shepherd.
He believes Shepherd to be honest,

FROM COLUMBUS, IND.

ED. PALLADIUM:-There are very
many nervous persons in the world
who are easily excited, and cause
themselves much unhappiness. The
latest phase is that of a liquor dealer,
who was shocked in fearful manner
by the impropriety of women praying
on the streets, that the evils which
afflict society might come to an end,
but he could, without emotion, witness
his fellow men reeling and falling in
the streets, and carrying sorrow to
many family.
This is rather a hard year for pro-
fessional politicians, as there appears
to be determination On the part of a
large portion of our population to ig-
more party and 60 for principles; time
alone will test the sincerity of their
resolves. It is to be hoped that they
may have sufficient stamina to with
stand the pressure that will be brought
to bear on them.
1t is asked if this temperance move
will triumph? Certainly it will, for
God and the women are in the major
ity, and according to the teachings of
our laws, the majority must rule.
1t is gratifying to know that the
world is progressing, and that nations
as we'll as individuals. are beginning to
agitate the question of settling all ma
tional differences by arbitration in
stead of the sword. Like all other
reforms, it will take time and patience
to accomplish it, yet it will eventually
be done. Should few of the leading
powers of our world say that war
should cease, it would have to be
done, but we have to be educated for
the change; and one of the first les
sons to be learned, is that the soldier
is not to be honored above the civil
ian simply because he has been ena-
bled to kill a few hundreds or thou
sands of his fellow beings. Murder
is his trade, and because he is pro-
tcient in it, it is no reason why WE
should laud him any more than the
victorious prize ring championi I'm
der the present system we stimulate
the desire In our sons to enter the
military field in order to receive pre-
ferment. If We would bestow our
praises and exault those who study
and labor to make the world better, il
would have a happy effect in di1nin-
ishing the number of those who seek
honor on the field of battle
In consultation with farmer few
days ago, who is extensively engaged
in the raising Of barley, | remarked
that the ladies would have to wait on
those who were in that business, he
replied that he supposed he would
have to quit, but that the pecuniary
temptation for continuing was very
strong. Should those who now cult.
vate barley sow wheat, bread would
be cheaper, and many poor family
could have it in full supply that now
use substitutes. l..

North Vernon Plaindcaler: An
abundant wheat crop is being har-
vested.
Bloomington Progress: Wheat has
turned out finely in all the wheat
growing districts, and corn looks well
everywhere.
Madison Courier: Wheat in this
and adjoining counties has been har-
vested in good condition and the yield
will be much larger than an average
crop.
A Correspondent from Salem to the
Courier Journal says: Farmers are
very busily engaged in their harvest.
The wheat crop is the best for several
years. In some parts of the county
the chinch bugs are said to be taking
the corn, but this is to no great ex-
tent
The Petersburg pike county, Press
says: A large amount of wheat has
been cut in this county this week. The
crop this season is one of the best
harvested for years. From all sections
in the county we hear glowing accounts
Of the growing corn. A large crop
has been planted and if the season
proves favorable the yield will be
enormous. Oats look fine and prom
ise an abundant yield. A large crop
was sown IN the spring. Glover and
hay crops are unusually good this sea-
son, particularly the former.

A plain, clever man is my neighbor Gray,
And we often take counsel together;
He lives in a farm house over the way,
And is wise in respect to the weather;
He watches all signs, night, morning and
But pins his great faith on change in the
moon,
In the dull, drizzly May, when the signs
were all bad,
And day after day il kept raining;
When the farmers were sad, and the wo-
men were mad,
And all the wide world was complaining;
Farmer Gray went on piping the very same
ait will never clear off till q change of the
moon."
1 admire his great faith, for the east wind
blew strong
From icebergs and isles of the ocean:
The moon had changed thrice, while the
storm kept along,
But my neighbor still stuck to his notion;
At length it cleared up, near the coming of
June,
Two days and half from change of the
moon!
In the long summer drouth, when the
spring had run dry,
Not sign of a rain cloud appearing,
Neighbor Gray, who knew the wherefore
and why,
Spake out, and his accents were cheering:
ave are bound to have different weather
soon,
For tomorrow, you know, there's change
of the MOON"
1 sit by his fire, on sharp winter night,
When the glass below zero is ranging;
My neighbor instructs me with honest de-
light,
(For his faith in the moon is unchanging,) }
That thaw Will set in by Saturday noon,
For just at that time comes change of the
moon.
Heat and cold, wet and dry, or whatever
the grief
Under which our poor earth may be lying,
| Neighbor Gray knows the source whence
must come our relief;
No use of this groaning and signing;
He tells all he meets that change will
come soon:
ave must wait, my dear friends, till a
| change of the moon."-
He cares not jot for the college or school,
..And passes their doings unheaded;
Still he holds by the old philosophical rule,
| To name no more causes than needed;
/ And as one is enough, the rest let US prune,
! And make all things proceed from a change
| of the moon.

Says the Washington Republican,:
General Logan, in his Springfield
speech, printed in full in these col
umns some days ago, made a pretty
good point against the reformers.
''If," said he, the two existing par
ties are corrupt and rotten, cut of
what class of people is the new honest
party to be framed?" A glance at the
leading "reformers,' East and West,
will convince everybody that they are
for the most part men who would have
been kicked out of the Republican
party for dishonesty Look at Coch-
rane, and Ignatius Donnelly, and Jim
Ashley, etc, etc.

stabbed man in Baltimore, in sa-
