The Adair Law Virtually Re.
ORRlPd.

The liquor laws in Ohio, Indiana
and New York are substantially the
same, and at this time the friends of
the liquor sellers are laboring with
legislatures in each State for such
amendments" or notifications of
the laws as will make them harmless.
In the Ohio Legislature, last week,
Mr. Reese succeeded in forcing
through the Senate an amendment"
to the Adair law that practically
makes that law dead letter.
After reciting substantially that
part of the Adair law imposing pen
alties for its violation, Mr.. Reese in
serts this proviso:
provided, that such husband, wife,
child, guardian or other interested
person liable to be so injured by any
sale of intoxicating liquors to any per-
son or persons aforesaid, who shall de-
sire to prevent the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquor to the same, shall give at
least ten days notice, either in writ
ing or before a witness orwitnesses, to
the person or persons so selling or
giving intoxicating liquors, to the
owner or lessor of the premises
wherein such intoxicating liquors are
given or sold, or shall file with the
township clerk in the township,
village or large city wherein such in
toxicating liquors may be sold, no.
tice to all liquor dealers not to sell
to such person or persons any intox-
icating liquors from and after ten days
from the date ofso fling said notice
Said notices shall be entered by the
clerk of such township, city or vii
lage, in book to be kept for such
purpose, which said book shall be
open for the inspection of all per-
sons interested;' any notice entered
in such book shall be erased and OBJ
liberated, soas not to be legible, by the
officers having charge of the same,
upon the demand of the person or
persons by whom such notice was
filed, and thereafter such notice shall
cease and end"
The bill comes up in the House
this week, where, as the Democrats
have the majority, it is safe to say
that it will have an easy passage.

The story of the young Survey
Or" by J. T. Trowbridge, just begun
in st. Nicholas, is capital story for
boys. 1t gives true picture of life
on the Prairies of the West; the sur
veying is so mixed up with bunting,
and other adventures, that the boys
hardly know where the instruction
leaves off and the fun begins.

MICHIGAN & OHIO R. R.
speech OF Gel. VIM. +. Ferry az
Railroad Meeting in C0lum-
buS.


! buS.
The following are the remarks
of Col. Ferry, at the recent railroad
convention in Columbus:
Colonel Ferry was introduced by
President Miller, and said: The
suggestion made by the Governor of
of your fair commonwealth has given
me an idea that certainly is an in
spring one in entering upon any
enterprise, and that is this: that the
first thing necessary is motion, and l
assure you that it is very encourag
ing indeed to witness in your assem-
blage here tonight the motion pre-
liminary to vast enterprise. That
motion has besa urging us along in
thought, in purpose and in deed IN
til we think we have started in di-
rection that will result largely to the
material and substantial interest of
sister State It is pleasant for
Wolverines and Buckeyes to meet to
act in concert in binding together
the interests of the two States, and
not as years ago, as enemies. That,
however, is almost buried in oblivion.
Looking at it in business point Of
view, we say that the termination of
this road is at Grand Haven. on the
borders of Lake Michigan. But that
is merely the termination of the un
broken line between Portsmouth
and the northwest. From the city
of Milwaukee branches four thous-
and miles of road, west, northwest
and north The city of Milwaukee,
the queen of the lakes, as you know,
is the rival of Chicago. Milwaukee,
with its vast interest reaching out in
to the great northwest, wants to make
that point of Concentration and give
it the advantage of transporting east
instead of to Chicago, and round the
head of the lake. 1t is the natural
outlet for the northwest. The De
troit and Milwaukee railway is taxed
to its utmost capacity, and still Mil
waukee cries for relief. If they can,
during the latter part of the season
of navigation and the long winter,
be continually filing their warehous
es and emptying them, you can see
that the resources Of Milwaukee, as
point for purchasing grain, will be
vastly increased, by so many times
as it can fill and empty its granaries
during the winter. The route across
from Grand Haven to Milwaukee is
a summer and a winter one. There
are now two large propellers on the
lake, making daily trips across, which
supply the Detroit and Milwaukee
railway to its utmost capacity, and
still it is unable to furnish transpor
tation sufficient You can see that
when this roadis built, terminating
at Grand Haven, the amount of its
business will be limited only by its
capacity. Just before L left home l
went into the Office of the Detroit and
Milwaukee railway, and I ascertained
there few facts connected with
their transportation business that
will aid you if business men will take
them in ds 1 speak them, showing
the importancesof that road to the
business of the northwest. The pas
sengers and tonnage transported over
that road, across the lake and finding
its way west, for the years named,
,uoro oc follouc.

employers in Shreveport parish,

about Women.

WHAT THE EDITOR OF THE SUSSEX JOUR-
NAL THINKS OF THE DEAR CREATURES.
Col. Fisk Townsend, editor Of the
Sussex Journal, thus writes OF what he
thinks about women:
Now we know women who never had
any education, who are good wives
and mothers, and we know others who
were hot-house plants, who can cook q
square meal and mind house full OF
children and raise them in the way
they should go. We know one edscat-
ed female who can read several lam
guages, correct proof, write o good ed
itorial, buy cabbage say long prayers
and nurse half dozen children, who
was reared hot-house plant, and she
could lead an army or steer ship
Way with such moralizing upon WON.
en-they arc only wonderland If good
God knows they are real good, II bad.
bad indeed. 1t matters little where q
women n Is educated If she.is true grit.
If she loves her husband and Is real
women-she can grace cottage or
adorn a palace-women are made OF
purer metal than men-their natures
are broader-they have more endur-
ance, more courage, more character. 1t
sounds loud for some men to prate
about women's education and moral
and physical training, but they had
better spend their breath and ink on
the education and training of the
young male rascals that fill ouriails and
almshouses. Women are pretty good,
and those who write against them are
either hypocondriacal or fools or
bachelors that have been disappointed
in getting q rib. We confess we love
the dear creatures.

PAPER DRESS PATTERNs.-A letter
from New York to a Boston paper says:
A great business has grown up appar-
emily out of nothing. This business is
the making of dress patterns out of a
filmsy sort of a paper made for the pur-
pose. The amount of business done Is
simply marvellous. Through it ladies
in the backwoods, in the country and
in the remotest and sparsest districts,
can at the cost of dime or so, secure
the latest fashions for themselves and
children. One of these establishments
sued house in New York on note
given for goods delivered. The defence
set up was that there was no consider
alton, A quantity of the goods were
brought into court and their flimsy tex
ture exhibited to the inspection of the
intelligent jury. The jury gave ver-
dict for the defendant ON the ground
that there was no property in such ma
terial. Yet the dealings In this frail
fabric are hardly equalled by any 9TH
er branch of trade. One house does
500, 900 worth of trade year. The
paper is manufactured expressly for
the work, and is sent into the city tons
at a time. A single order exhausts
5000 reams. This house has 1000 agen.
cies. They are in every part of the
United States, in Canada and across
the seas. Orders for patterns come in
from $26 to $1,000. The largest estab-
lishments in New York, Brooklyn,
Philadelphia and Chicago buy $500
worth at time. One hundred and
fifty hands arc kept constantly at work
to meet the orders.

A FEW WORDS FOR THE PRIZE sPRLLERs

Apropos of the spelling bee fever,
which IS now raging in this city, we pub
lish the following from the Philadelphia
Ledger:
10 people who pride themselves upon
their aptness at spelling We recommend
the following test, which has been COM
piled in leisure moments by gentleman
merely as q literary curiosity. 1t is clev-
erly arranged, with a view to presenting
as many difficult words in as small n
space as possible; and there are probably
few, even of the gifted" spoilers, who
can write the whole from dictation with
out making some blunders:
"The most skillful gauger ever knew
