"A very fair audience listened to the
sermon Of Rev. Kone in the Reform hall
last night. The reverend gentleman spoke
eloqucntly and to the pont--as he always
does and held the closest attention Of his
audience from BEGINNING TO end. He, assist
ed 10y Rev. J. A. Hess, will conduct servi.
ces in the hall at eleven O'Clock this morn
ing and at half past seven this evening. The
meetings will be held at same place, each
night durng the week, and a full attend
ance Of our people is desired. All who at
tend cannot be otherwise than profted,
both in the benefit TO Themselves, vs. well
as in the consciousness of aiding good
cause.
The two.headed- boyshow, which has
been holding forth on Eighth street for
several days, collapsed last night after the
performance. The cause Of it was that the
manager for some reason failed to pay the
members of the company their dues, and
they sought 10 compel him to disgorge
some OF the income by taking out attach
ments upon the curiosties and outfit Of the
show. One took the educated goat TO his
hotel and locked ii up in his room, and the
last we heard of the manager was that he
was in search Of the proper officers to re-
plevin the property. The manager seems to
be overwhelmed with misiortunes during
his stay here.
A few days ago we mentioned the fact
that the state debt Of Illinois had very
nearly been wiped out, and since then We
have been told by several republicans that
their party should have the credit for this
state Of affairs. This is mistake, and for
the benefit of those who may look at the
matter through the same spectacles, we will
recall to their minds the fact that the last
administration has been the most expensive
in the history Of the state, and that the
credit Of wiping out the state debt Is due
to Stephen A. Douglas, the greatest demo-
crat the state ever produced, Douglas
wise provision in the charter oil the Illinois
Central railroad is what has placed the
state out of debt, and republicans deserve
no more credit for it than the devil does
for the writing of the ten commandments.
AS the holidays draw nigh, keeping
pace with the steady advancement Of cold,
dresry, dreaded winter it becomes the |
duty Of our Christian men and women to |
look about them and see if there is any one |
in this little city suffering for the honest
necessities of life, who cannot be reached |
by sabbath school festivals
and Christmas trees, We know
that in Cairo there arc some such,
and it behooves our good people, who have
been blessed with plenty, to seek such ones
relief. Do not let the unfortunate suffer
for want of being hunted up, but COM
mencc early to look up the needy and
see that they are needy no more. A glance
at Interior Of the wretched howell will
at L suggest to the philanthropst Of
average intelligence whether the inhab-
tants thereof compose the class Of "worthy
poor or the lazy, idle and shiftless. The
home of the worthy ones will ever be found
clean, neat and as we'll arranged as is posi-
BILE under the circumstances, whilst the
home of those who belong to the army of
worthless and shiftless will be found in
careless, unkempt condition. Look upon
phases Of poverty and the class worthy VI |
