MIR. Henry Tidman brought through
with him from Wisconsin three Cotswold
sheep-a buck and two ewes. They were
sheared this week, and the aggregate
weight of the feeces was . little over 81
pounds. These sheep are only two
years old and had been thoroughly
washed just before leaving Wisconsin.
They were also eight days on the road
in . car with lumber and farming imple-
nents. and had lost some wool BY rub
bling against the goods with which the
car Vas loaded. The buck weighed sol
pounds before leaving homo, and Is .
remarkably 6ns animal.

\ Tho Usage Mission Journal COM
pplains that members of the Murphy club
and Good Templars, at that place signed
petitions for license. The Girard Press
also makes similar charge. Some time
after the first of May We stated that sp-
parently very few towns in the State
were granting licenses, and that the
Murphy movement was beginning to be
felt in the right direction. Since the
publication of that article we notice that
many supposed temperance towns have
granted license, and We are inclined, just
now, to the belief that in many instances,
the Murphyites have been more opposed
to intemperance in words than acts.
We have a very poor opinion of a man
who will wear blue ribbon to-day, talk
temperance tonight and tomorrow sign
q petition for license. In lola, however,
we are frank to say that, 30 far as we
have any knowledge, our Murphy men
have been consistent, and have not signed
q petition for license.
