FROM KIPTON.

KIPToN, Nov IA, 1881.
Wednesday the I'd inst was high day
here, it being the day appointed for the
dedication of the new Church. The morn
ing was cloudy and rather gloomy, but be-
fore the time for service the sky became
clear and the day was fine. The Methodist
Minister from Elyria got lost in the wilder
ness between Oberlin and Kipton, making
the morning services late in beginning, but
when he did arrive and commence, it was
evident to the most careless listener that he
had found himself again,
At the close of the sermon an appeal for
aid to cancel the debts still remaining on
the edifice, amounting to over $4,000 was
promptly responded TO and nearly the
whole amount was raised, when an adjourn
ment to after dinner in the basement was
considered in order. In the afternoon there
were some who volunteered to take some
stock in the enterprise, there being no
appea) so that there was very little unpro
vided for.
The musical part Of the exercises was
rather overdone, half a dozen Anthems
more or less, with Handeps Halleluah
| Chorus from the = Messiah was too much
| of a good thing, and some of the audience
| gave sigh Of relief when that part Of
| the exercises was ended. Mr.. Dawson
called for the Long Metre Doxology at the
close of the exercises which was given
with spirit, the audience rising to their feet
and joining, making grand close TO the
exercises
Since the day of Dedication, the whole
amount has been raised, and $500 for a bell

THE Retreat founded by and under the
care of the Woman's Christian Association
of Cleveland, has during the twelve years
of its existence given home to 666 unfor-
tunate and erring girls. Three-fourths of
this number have been reclaimed to vir-
tuous lives. Plain sewing, fancy needle
work, cooking, general housework, sick
room nursing and laundry work are
taught all who come there. The average
age of girls received there is eighteen
years, and the large majority from deficient
home training are wholly unskilled in
anYt work and have no knowledge of the
methods of earning an honest living.
They endeavor to keep every girl at the
Retreat long enough to become familiar
with some branch of useful employment
so that they may go out prepared to earn
honest wages. , = eat

FROM ELYRIA.

ELYRIA Nov. Is, 1881.
Elyria celebrated the Fourth of July
Saturday evening-that is, the fireworks
which were provided for the celebration
of that day, and not used on account of the
assassination of President Garfield, were
burned Saturday evening. There was a
large crowd and a brilliant display.
Friday evening Mr.. c. o. Ingersoll,
was going home on the railroad track, in
the dark, when he fell through cattle
guard in the rear of A. Beebe's residence
and received serious injuries. He is doing
as well as could be expected.
About 2 o'clock Sunday morning the
town was aroused by an alarm of fire,
caused by the burning of the barn belong.
ing to Mrs. Coburn, on Broad street. Though
the fire department were promptly on hand
the building, owing to its smallness and
infamable nature, was destroyed. The fire
was probably the work of an incendiary.
Loss small; no insurance.-Cleveland

I We call attention to the activity of Nor
mon missionaries and to the large results
| of their labors. Within a week or two the
New y York papers have given the following
items. W ~ "
"More than 1000 Mormon converts have
left Liverpool for Utah during the past
summer.'S - - rEIssET or Js-
"The Mormon missionaries have recently
gained 300 converts in Schleswig- -Holstein." !"
LONDON, Oct. 2S.-The steamer 'Wiscon-
sin,' which sailed from Liverpool for New
York on Saturday, has 400 Mormons on
on board.,'
"Twenty-four men in slouched hats, boots
made of heavy leather and too large for
them, and coarse clothing, of curious cut,
sailed from New York on the steamship
Abyssinia,' on Tuesday afternoon. They
arrived from Utah on Monday, and are
going abroad, to win converts to the Nor
mon faith. A few years ago these men
came here from Europe, as newly-made
converts to Mormonism. They are chiefly
Scandinavians and Welsh, with a few
English and Scotch, and will labor abroad
each among people of his own nationality.
Their leader is X. r. Anderson, Scotch
man, who was clerk in the Mormon agency
in Liverpool twenty years ago. He became
Brigham Young's secretary in Utah four.
teen years ago and since the death of that
prophet has been active in the administra-
ton of the affairs of the Perpetual Emf
grafton Fund Company of Utah.n
1t is notorious that Mormonism receives
the great bulk of its recruits from abroad,
and that it is fortifying itself for resistance
to public opinion and to anticipated attacks
by the Government by accessions of
strength, numerical and financial, from
abroad. If we want TO overthrow this Salt
Lake pest-house we must take note of these
! facts and devise measures to prevent or
counteract the effects of Mormon mission
ary labor abroad. 1t is idle to talk about
what the Government could and should do,
as we have been doing for the past ten or
fifteen years, and allow the evil to become
more and more strongly rooted. We have
suggested the formation of an anti Mormon
missionary society, whose object should be
the sending out of missionaries to visit the
countries where the Mormon agents are
most active and circulate information as to
the true nature and designs of the Salt
Lake emissariest If any choose to become
Mormons, let them do so, only with their
eyes open. The great majority of the con.
verts do not know what MorInonism is
until they arrive in Utah and it is too late
to retreat. And what better way can any
one suggest than to meet the propagation
of error with the propagation of truths II
we can cut off this foreign source of supply
we can deal with the polygamous system
with hopes of success.-New York In

Fan Cuttings.

The fall season is much better one
for taking off cuttings than any other,
and there is large number Of plants
that can be propagated in this way. The
currant, gooseberry, ounce and the
grape among fruits; and the privet,
honeysuckles, wiegela, forsythia, mock
orange, and many other things among
ornamental shrubbery. Indeed there
are so many things among these hardy
plants, etc., that will grow well in this
way, that it is much easier to give the
list of the things that will not grow from
fall cuttings rather than the things that
will. The great difficulty is that they
draw out of the ground by freezing and
thawing. To avoid this the cuttings
need not be set out at once in the
ground, but they may be tied into bun,
dies, each after its kind, and buried un.
derground till spring, and then put out
in rows where they are to grow. OF
course they must be looked after early
in the spring, or the buds will sprout
and rot. In sandy land, or earth that
keeps good hold of things, cuttings may
be put in at once.-Gernaantown Iele.

FROM BRIGHTON.

BRIGHTON, Nov. IA, 1881.
The hearts of the ladies of this commu-
nity were touched by the news heard from
Michigan, and they have nobly shown their
sympathy with the sufferers, by sending
them two large boxes, containing beds
bedding and clothing of every description
The contents of the boxes were valued al
$40. Over $50 in money, was also sent
The credit for what has been done is mostly
due to the ladies of course, the men handed
in little silver, but think it was gotten
through the influence of the ladies, so on
the whole perhaps, all the honor rightly
belongs to them, and for my part would
say Amen"

Seven Brothers Meet for the First Time

A reunion of the Jones family was
held at the residence of Abial NJ. Jones,
Esq in Lewiston, Wednesday evening.
All of the living members of the family
were present. There are seven broth.
ers, ranging in age from forty-seven to
seventy-two years. Perhaps the most
interesting feature of the occasion was
the meeting for the first time of all the
brothers. The oldest brother left home
before the youngest was born. An at
tempt has several times been made to
get all of the family together, but on
each occasion one or more of the broth,
ers would be necessarily absent. One
sister remains, Mrs. Albert Frost,
of this city, who sat at the table We'd
nesday evening with her seven rothers,
who were seated in the orde fS their
ages. The oldest brother, NJ Eben
Jones, of Newport, Vt, assisted Col
Frye in setting up the mschinery for the
fFst mill in Lewiston.

Yesterday morning Bergman T., Hicks,
white, about thirty years old, living about
fifteen miles from the city, murdered his
wife by cutting hor throat and shooting her
in the abdomen. Ho then attempted to
put an end to his own existence by ioflioting
three severe outs upon his throat, mono Of
which, however, proved fatal. He was ar.
rested yesterday during tho day snd lodged
in jail [ visited him in his cell to day,
and 10 reply to my question as to why be
killed his wife he told mo that he did its
because he loved her and sho had proved
unfaithful to him. He regretted that he
had committed the orime, hoped God would
forgive him, and expressed bis willingness
to be punished for it. His neighbors say
that his charges against his wife, who Is
his senior by ten years, are without tho
slightest foundation. They had been mar.
ried fifteen months. The murdered woman
was his second wife; his fret is said TO have
obtained divorce from him because Of his
i'll treatment. s 4gt ,.lttfs
