The ARMY of Salvation.

Of all the many guises assumed by
religious enthusiasm, not to say ia
naticism, the one which will attract
most attention for its oddity is that Of
the small squad Of men and women
who landed in New York, few days
ago-clad in strange uniform, carry
ing banners, and calling themselves
the "Army Of Salvation" It has
heretofore been quite common, in
speaking Of the great body of Chris
tian workers, to use the visionary ex-
pression-"The Army of the Lord, "
but the appearance of body Of zeal
OTIS, organized after the manner of
military command, is rather novel
spectacle.
This army" though, as at present
organized, few in numbers, evidently
mean business. They waste no time
in reconnoitering the enemy, or forti-
flying themselves. They march upon
and attack the enemy wherever, and
whenever they find him.
They came to the conclusion one
day last week that the enemy was put
ting Oil rather bold front at Harry
Hills dalce-house. ThiGher the brave
little army marched, and soon that den
OF wickedness rang with songs of
praise and words of exhortation A
considerable interest was aroused
even the wicked Hill becoming inter
ested to the extent that he offered to
pay the commander to have his COM
pany perform" at his place for a
stated number Of nights.
This of course the warrior" indig-
nantly refused He works not for
money, but to win souls. He would
not accept pay for performing labor
of love. He would, however, charge
twenty-five cents admission at the
door-the money to be applied toward
g erecting the standard of Jesus"
Capt" Westbrook, made an i'm
passioned exhortation. Capt. West
brook is woman Il come tonight
-ah," said the Captain, ''to save sim
ners from elijah; from the downward
road to elijah" And the good Cap
tain might have added 'for twenty
five cents a head-ah!''
There was a somewhat extended
service, the ''Lieutenants" following
the Captain in exhorting the wicked
to turn into the great path which
leads to life eternal. After the ser
vices Mr.. Hill mounted the stage, and
explained that an admission fee had
been charged because he expected to
exhibit panorama Of Uncle Toms
Cabin, after the services. The COM
mander Of the salvation army tFen
made short prayer, after which, tax
ing Mr.. Hill by the hand, he said: Il
hope we shall soon have you with us.
You're just the kind of man we want
in the army Of Jesus Christi And
that was, perhaps, the first time that
Mr.. Hill had heard that he was es-
pecially fitted for a soldier in the
sacred army.
We fear the little army, coming as
a missionary band to enlighten the
people Of the United States, and pro-
claim the glory of the Master, has a
rather extensive contract on hand.
This Nation is big thing for an
army Of half dozen to spread itself
out over. Yet, if the success of the
Army of Salvation shall be COM
mensurate with its zeal, it will, per-
haps, accomplish a great work.

A FEW years ago Mr.. Christiancy
was U. S. Senator from Michigan.
He was an old man, and widower.
He married girl who was clerk in
one of the Government Offices at
Washington. He then resigned, and
was appointed minister to Peru, South
America. His young wife did not go
with him, but she went afterwards.
She did not remain there long. Now
they have finally separated, and both
want a divorce. He accuses her Of
improper conduct, and she accuses
him of cruelty.
Moral.-Do not marry man three
times as old as you are.

A FELLOW named Kimble lived near
Olive Furnace, Lawrence county. He
was in the habit Of beating his wife.
The neighbors tried to get him to do
better, but they did not succeed. FL
nally some four or five of them dis
guised themselves, took the fellow out
Of his cabin, and gave him sound
and well-deserved drubbing. He had
three or four men arrested, but as he
could not identify them, they were
discharged. Himble has now removed
to another neighborhood, but we hope
his new neighbors may keep an eye
upon him, and if he abuses his wife
again, thrash him into decency.

Total Deprayity.

There is such thing as total de-
pravity. There is a case or two Of it
in Detroit, Michigan. There is, in
that city, doggery-keeper by the
name Of Schneider. Schneider has
large, ferocious dog. Or had, few
days ago, when Catharine Moran went
into Schneider's doggery and bought
some whisky. After drinking the
whisky, Catharine went away, but
shortly returned for more. Schneider
of course keeps a respectable house,
and does not sell whisky to drunk
people. So he ordered Catharine to
leave, which she refused to do without
the liquor. Then Schneider sent his
hired man out into the back yard to
bring in the dog. When this was
done, the beast was set upon Catha-
rine. She was thrown down, the ami
NAL fastening his teeth in her cheek
and upper lip, tearing her face horri-
bly,. All this time, the two other
brutes, who were doubtless far inferi-
or to the dog, stood by, watching the
horrible struggle. Fearing that the
animal might kill the woman, Schnei-
der nnally called him Off, anG the wo-
man got up and staggered to the side
walk, wiera a policeman iouLd her,
and had her taken to the hospital.
We think Schneider is entitled to the
distinction of being ranked as speci-
men OF total depravity

WE thought there were few fell
lows in Jackson who are about as
mean as men generally get, but
Athens can beat our town. The
Adele Paine Troupe had an engage
ment at Athens, and after the audi
ence had collected, a part of the per-
formers struck, and refused to act,
unless they got paid some old claim,
or pretended claim. Then Miss Paine
paid the people back their money, and
did not proceed with the performance.
And now is where the meanness comes
in. Several persons had received
complimentary tickets-of course not
paying any money for them, but they
also presented their tickets, and re-
ceived the money for them.

Judge Trip for quarter Of a CEN

HENDRICK B. WRIGHT's Committee
Of Congress to investigate the causes
Of the Depression of Labor, have after
a long and laborious Investigation"
recommended that the Pre-: ident Of
the United States notify the Chinese
Government that the clauses in the
treaty between the two Governments,
which permit the immigration Of Chi
nese laborers, will have to be annulled.
And that is all that Wright's Com
mittee can do for the depression Of
Labor The trouble with this Com
mittee was, that after it had begun its
investigation, the Depression of Labor
disappeared.

A GREA- deal is to be seen in the
newspapers about opposition to Mr..

NEARLY one hundred thousand citi-
zens of Ohio have sent petitions to the
Ohio Legislature asking the passage Of
local option Law, out the Legislature

carried little too far. What if Gid

QUITE a lively political contest has
been in progress between Senators
Gordon and Ben. Hill, Of Georgia.
over the appointment Of one Simmons,
as Supervisor of the Census, in one Of
the Georgia Districts. 1t is claimed
that each of these two hot-heads as
pires to be the recognized leader of
the Democracy of his State. Simmons
is said to be a Republican, and Hill
relied on the Republicans to come up
to his support. But the Republicans
concluded that it was not their fight,
and stood back-only enough of them
voting to make quorum-and let the
Democrats fight it out. Gordon was
victorious, Simmons was rejected, Hill
was given a back-set-and Gordon
doubtless thinks he is a much bigger
man than old Ben. Hill.

Love. Retribntion and Ghosts,
A great many years ago, while Il
Pan Handle Railroad was being bui

A great many years ago, while the
Pan Handle Railroad was being built
so the story goes-some laborers
lived in shanties a short distance from
Coshocton, Ohio. Among these was
a beautiful Irish Culinary Mulha-
ney. Mary loved a young man in the
settlement. He proved unworthy Of
her love. He deserted her. She went
and hung herself to great oak tree,
in the vicinity. Time wore on, and
many years afterward a party of hum
ters were passing the oak tree, when
one Of them paused under it. While
there, his gun was accidentally dis
charged, killing him. He proved to
be the betrayer of poor Mary Mulha-
ney. Now parties in that vicinity
have seen, in the dead hour Of night,
the forms of Mary, the young man,
and a large black dog, passing the i'll
fated oak.
There will doubtless be a great deal
of mysterious shaking of heads, and
many half-whispered conversations,
over this spook story, in the neighbor
hood spoken Of. Men will load their
blunderbusses and watch; women and
children will cling to the inside of the
houses after night, and brave youths
will threaten dire vengeance upon the
wandering spooks-but the fellow that
sees them will be alone, in every in
stance, and there is no probability that
he will stop to investigate.
