1t is estimated that 80, ,OO0, 900 of sto.
gies are made annually in Wheeling.
- The total number of postal cards issued
during the six months ended 3lst December,
1877, was 9S, ,422, 500, an increase of II ,675,
500, or nearly % per cent over the issues
for the corresponding period of the previous
year. This fact is au indication of the revi-
val of business, as the increase of issues of
postal cards the last fiscal year over the pre-
vious year was only little less than Is per
cent.
- At q FIRE in the convent at Limoges,
France, on Nov. 10, 1888, it was suddenly
discovered that one of the children of the
girls school there had not been rescued
She was in distant room, and doubts were
expressed of the ability to save her. A
young lady said: n will try" and rushed
between the flames on each side of the en-
trance. She was regarded as lost, but finally
appeared with the child in her arms. King
Louis Philippe sent hor gold medal, and a
young captain in the army, who witnessed
her act, married her. The captain is now
president OF the trench republic, and the la>
dy is Nine MacMahon.

6S2, ,GI2. This shrinkage in values has oc-
casioped failures in business representing
81. l57 ,O33, ,925. The demonetizing of silver
helped precipitate this vast calamity upon
the people. Industries were parayzed and
stood STILL Labor found no employment
Idleness led to want. Hence, came labor
strikes, riots, tramps. In the shrinkage of
values it has been sad day for capitalists !;
in the stoppage of industries it has been
equally sad for tolers. The remedy in part
must be in the reconciliation of silver aud
some expansion of the currency. lfcongress
would only correct its radical errors in these
respects, and then let the money question
alone, it would do real service to the strug>
Cling interests all through the country.

a Masonic Lodge Censured.

Contrary to the usual course of Masonic
matters, the action Of the Grand Master of
the State OF New jersey in censuring ono of
the lodges at Paterson has been made public.
As the world at large has known for long
time, no man is considered a fit candidate for
initiation into the rights of Freemasonry who
is not physically perfect, complete unmutil-
ated man. This rule or custom has been rig
idly enforced against applicants who have
lost any important member of the body, like
leg, arm, or hand ; but not against those
having slight disiigurements. 1t appears
that tho Paterson lodge in question accepted
a well-knowD citizen as a candidate. who
had lest the thumb of his right hand by am>
putation, and duly commenced to initiate
him. The Grand Master of New Jersey
heard of this, and informed the lodge that
he would be present on Tuesday evening
Of this week, when he proceeded to CEN
sure the lodge for its action in accepting the
''impcrfect" candidate, and suspended the
Master of the lodge for the remainder OF the
year for his non observance Of Masonic rules
aud customs. The Grand Master of the
State is Rev. Marshall b. Smith, of Passaic,
who is now holding the Office for his third
term, highly respected everywhere for his
extensive researches and eruditiOn, particu-
larly with regard to the history and customs
of tho order of Freemasons. 1t was proba-
bly, made known to the public so that per-
sons suffering such disfgurements need not
apply for admission to tho order, and thus
be spared the annoyance of being rejected
1t is understood that the Grand Master con-
siders that the permanent loss Of any portion
of the body is sufficient to prevent the admis.
sion of person to the privileges of Freema-
sonry.-NeU York Times.

a GENTLE HINT.-In our style of climate,
with its sudden changes of temperature,
rain, wind and sunshine often intermingied
in single day,-it is no wonder that our
children, friends and relatives are SO frequent
ly taken from US by neglected colds, half the
deaths resulting directly from this cause. A
bottle of Boschee's German Syrup kept about
your home for immediate use will prevent
serious sickness, largo doctors bill, and
perhaps death, by the use of three or four
doses. For curing Consumption, HemOr>
rhsges, Pneumonia, Severe Coughs, Group
or any disease of the Throat or Lungs, its
success is simply wonderful, as your drug
gist will tell you. German Syrup is now
sold in every town and village on this CONT
nent. Sample bottles for trial, 10c.; regu>
lar size, 75c. For salo by Light & Mitchell
and C. E. Beller, Charlestown, and Gilbert
