THE Committee on Temperance at the
1etxnt session of the North Ohio Confer
eaee reported series of resolutions taking
very radical ground on this question, but
falling 20 indorse political action or the
prohibition movement. The feeling OF the
msjo;ity on tais question is voiced in the
following:
RESOLVED, While claiming for ourselves, we fully
concede 10 Others that inherent and constitutional
right OF the individual and American citizen, to de-
eide according 20 tSe dictates OF his conscience
and the light of his Judgment the agencies by
which he may most ehectually work for the accom-
plishment of this end.
The report was adopted by large ma
joriy. A minority report was also pre-
serScd, indorsing Mrs. Fosters address be-
fore The Conference and her work, but as
this amounted 20 an Endorsement of the
whole prohibition movement it was
promptly tabled. In the course of the
discussion the Bishop took occasion 10 say
thst he hoped this Conference would re-
ffain from committing itself 10 any politi-
cal perry; he was sorry that any Method
isl cemp-ground should be used 10 organize
political movement He feaUed there
YVES a tendency to kind of agitation and
movement in tbis State which threatened
evil to tbe Chusch. His words were spoken
with very greet eaInestness and emphasis,
and with the approval of large majority
of the Conference.

Memorial Services in Wellington.

As ali the towns within fifty miles of
Cleveland which have access to the city
by rail are largely represented there on
great occasions, it was necessary that Wei
lington have her memorial services previ-
GUS to Monday in order to have any
speakers. There was no attempt to divert
the minds of the people away from the sad
event that, for week, has allowed them to
think or speak of little else than the death
of their President. The morning services
in the separate churches, Sunday, were
commemorative in character, beftting the
em5lems of SORROW on every side, and were
such as TO intensity the sOlemnity, while
they improved the lesson of the hour.
REV. W. @. WARD,
the new pastor, preached his first sermon
of the conference year at the Methodist
Church, choosing for his text the words
from st. Matthews Gospel, " Heaven and
earth shall pass away, but my words shall
not pass away" His discourse was suit
able, instructive, practical; calling atten-
tion to the difference between the unre-
strained and violent exhibitions of grief
In the inferior types of mankind, and the
calm resignation which is the result OF an
Intelligent Christian faith, and showing
how the prayer of faith and the promise
concerning such petitions is consistent
only with perfect trust in the infinite wis

NINE hundred car loads of people were
brought to Cleveland, Sunday. They
were packed as closely as possible, aisles
and platform as well as seats, and were
estimated each at one hundred persons, q
total of $4,000. Add to this the number
who went Saturday and Monday and we
may safely conclude there was the

How 10 Buy a Horse.

An old horseman, speaking or this subject,
says:-If you want TO buy horse, don't believe
your own brother. Take no mans woEd for &c.
Your eye is your market. Don't buy horse In
harness. Unhitch him and take everything off
but the halter and lead him around. III he has
a corn, or is stiff, or has any other falling, you
can see IL. Let him go by himself little ways,
and II he slaves right into anything you may
know he's stone blind. No matter how clear
and bright his eyes are. he can't see any more
than bat Back him up, too. Some horses
show their weakness or tricks that way when
they don't in any other.
But be as smart as you can, and youm get
caught sometimes. Even an expert gets stuck.
A horse may look ever SO nice, and 60 a mile a
minute, and yet have fits for instance. There
Isn't live man could tell IL till something
happens. Or he may have a weak back. GHe
him the whip and III he goes for mile or two;
then, all OF sudden, he sits down on the road
After rest he gets I'D and starts again, but he
soon Sits down tor good, and nothing but der
rick could raise him.
Do you know what dummy Is? You don't?
Well, I'll tell you. He's horse that doesn't
know anything. Bis brain has gone wrong. A
dark stall anG over-feeding have ruined his
digestion and that has a. ,cted bis brain. Drive
him out ways and pretty soon he will jerk his
head around and pull right straight on one line.
You can't hold him; it's no use 20 Try. The first
you know he has dumped you In ditch or
smashed you up against lamp-po5t. Tie him
In q stable and he'll back up till he breaks eve y
halter you put on him. Stretch rope across
the end OF the stall SO he can't back out and
he'll climb up the wall.
